Hi Lefty, that's not a great example!

Forget HPI for the moment, the DVLA hold full details of beneficial interest parties (it's a 'hidden field' on the V5C). Any time there is a material change, the DVLA contact the finance house to let them know of the change, and this brings together the finance house and the insurer, long before you get your cheque in settlement.

Change anything else voluntarily... Reg No, RK, your address, the beneficial owner is told all about it! NALOPKT!

The Advertising Standards Authority have written to me advising that they have referred my complaint to OFCOM. (To whom I had already complained!)

I received this email from OFCOM:

Thank you for your further e-mail about the Brighthouse sponsorship credits during the Trisha show on Five.

With regards to the timescale investigating complaints, while we aim to respond to the majority of complaints within 15 working days, more complex cases may take up to 60 working days to respond to. In any case, while we always try to meet these targets, we have to ensure we reach a satisfactory conclusion before closing an investigation.

We’re sorry for the delay responding to you, but confirm your complaint is still in progress and you will receive a written response outlining our findings in due course.

Yours sincerely

Ofcom Broadcast Team





Looks like they are seeing it as a "more complex" case! Either way, I'm pretty sure that all concerned - Trisha, Brighthouse, Five, TopHouse Productions - are well aware by now of the potential bad publicity heading there way!






Cheers

Maybe what we should do is invite her to spend a day on here and let her see some of the brighthouse threads.

Trihsa may see what really goes on behind the scenes then.

THIS IS OFF THE TRISHA WEBSITE:


DROWNING IN DEBT


It's one of the easiest things in the world today to get yourself into real problems with debt.
Credit cards, buy now pay later schemes, loans, mortgages - you name it, we're almost all of us borrowing money in one form or another. Fine if you can pay it all back when you need to , terrifying if you suddenly can't and your debts are taking over your life. The first step back to solvency is to acknowledge the problem (so many hide away from it hoping it will go away - it won't I'm afraid) and then ask for help.
  • I know it sounds obvious but go for it anyway - don't carry cash or credit cards when you go out unless there is something specific you need to buy. It works for the Queen!
  • Watch out for 'temptation by catalogue'. I know from talking to my show guests how many of them get into trouble by ordering more than they can afford. Be careful when you order.

Dont ask for any help off BrightHouse because you won't get it.
As for 'watch out for 'temptation by catalogue' then maybe Trisha should add to her website- watch out for temptation by BrightHouse.

Furthermore we would like to know about problems you have had with goods from this company and how Brighthouse have handled repairs or replacements.

Here is the link to the thread to post your stories.

Very sad news here. I'm sure everyone will join me in wishing Trisha a speedy recovery...

Having lost a very close friend myself to breast cancer, I know first hand of the heartbreak this awful disease causes...

Five's Trisha has breast cancer


TV talk show presenter Trisha Goddard is being treated for breast cancer, it has been announced.

A lump was discovered during a routine mammogram three weeks ago, requiring her to be absent from her Five TV show Trisha for two weeks.

"She may possibly need, or choose to have, chemotherapy," said Goddard's husband Peter Gianfrancesco.

Goddard's business partner, Malcolm Allsop, said she would "come through this as she has with other setbacks". He said that Goddard planned to return to the studio at the end of the month.

Full story HERE

It's also very sad news for BrightHouse, because channel five will almost certainly have to cut back on the number of Trisha shows they make over the next year - meaning BrightHouse WON'T get the same level of TV exposure channel five had agreed to...

But, BrightHouse are a compassionate lot - they're a "community retailer" don't forget! I'm sure they won't be applying any penalty charges on channel five for breach of contract...


Cheers
