another debt story
« on: 02 August 2017, 11:32:22 »

I had a security system on my house for a lot of years with ADT. they maintained the system & serviced it every 6mths. on the very day it was due a service it activated itself. the procedure was if that happened I would call ADT & I would get a code to reset it. on this occasion I was told to expect an engineer., which turned up within 5mins. then I started getting bills for an emergency call out . it was £80 above the normal monthly charge. I tried to contest this by ringing their accounts dept in Leeds. my problem & theirs whenever I called the a/c dept was about to close (5pm) I worked as a brickie on a site where we couldn't get a mobile signal. when I did call it was always just before 5pm & was always told by the lady in charge that they were about to close so she couldn't deal with me. then one evening I got a phone call from ADT, the same lady whom had been telling me she couldn't deal with me. she was about to say something until I told her I didn't accept calls about my payments to ADT after 5pm. the debt was forwarded to a collection agency. to contest this I had to appear at a court in Manchester. the case was found in my favour after I explained my story & producing the engineers report . it turned out he was due at my house & was only 300mtrs away when he received the info regards my alarm. also the reason he wrote about the malfunction was I quote. " malfunction due to over tightened electrical wire , leading to breakage in consumer unit " if only that woman would have listened

Too late Ron! >:( >:( ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

It is just like the doctors receptionist, who usually is female, who doesn't do what you want her to do, but seems to think she has more authority than the doctor.  The rows I have had with those people!

Well done Ray for your persistence. If you know you are in the right it is always wise to take them on.  So many companies are dragged down by the poorest demonitor within their staff. :y

You can't afford the river crossing fee now, so I'm safe from marauding Amazonian women from Kent -  :P

GOOD! We don't want your sort in proper England; you can keep your whippets, ferrets and flat caps up there where they belong.
You wouldn't be able to get used to decent southern beer anyway!  :P :P

What you describe is STMO country, except you missed out the racing pigeons and tripe. ;D

In Lincolnshire we walk around with a pig under each arm whilst sucking on a piece of straw.

As for decent southern beer......it has yet to be invented as it would be too strong for the shandy drinking bed wetting people from the south :) :D ;)

We are not from Sheppey, so we are super clever creatures from the mainland of Kent, so we travel by stealth and quickness of hand  ;D ;D ;)

I once lived in a place called Hoo in Kent. Don't remember much about it, but I remember it being a bit bleak.
Then again, Essex has Jaywick.  ;D
