advice stall outside bank

Boff · 14th December 2006, 00:42

anyone know what the legal issues might be in having a (properly rent paid if necessary) stall situated outside a bank advising customers about claiming back bank charges?

can we really get in the banks faces like this legally?

Everytime I go in to Huntingdon I take the tear off slips with the CAG web addy on it, and as I walk past the banks I casually inquire if people are having problems with bank chargesto just take the slip and check out the site. So far no-one has refused the offered slip.

I have done to letter box drops in my local area also. I am not so sure about a stall, isn't that up to the local council to grant a permit for it. if the council gives you a permit I guess you could go for broke.

I think that's right, Battleaxe (love the avatar BTW!) - Tha bank doesn't usually own the pavement in front of the branch, the council does. If they won't allow you to set up a stall, you might still be able to stand there, with one of those "poppy collector" type of trays, and hand out info.

Nifty idea, Boff. Good on yer.

I'd love to put a CAG sticker on every 'black' hole in the wall......would CAG be held responsible? surely it's an individual thing? love to do it though......

Maybe targeting places like job centres would be better, everyone needs help there?

Willow - that's brill. You can get sticky labels for use on home printers (more & more of us use them at Christmas for our card list envelope addresses).

And jobcentres - yes indeed. People there have often got the time to do this, and would appreciate the money. Pity it's not an instant return, though.

Brill.

WHY not do a posting on the nottingham forest website on bbc.co.uk/606 forum word would travel fast on their

Capital one sponsor Forest but the fans will quite easily "tear the shirt from their backs" e

Kent put a couple of the tear posters on the notice board at the RAF base where he is stationed.

I love the idea of a sticky label on the holes in the wall. Hell i am even getting mail addressed to me as a CAGer, because the ladies down the post office pass the word on for me. I am not sure how many people have looked at the site because of all of this, but even ten people being helped is better than none. Bankfodder and Dave will just have to ask for DNA tests to be carried out on the labels

I'm off to Leeds this morning and you guessed it, I am putting a tear off poster on the hospital notice board, in the lounge. When cancer hits it's a double whammy and people have lost their homes because of the illness rending them incapable of continuing work. We are the lucky ones, still able for kent to continue working for as long he is able. That as they say is another story, so let the cancer serve a double purpose and help others regain bank charges. This woman is on a crusade.

Ever stood 34th in the post office queue waiting to send 'recorded'. Hand round the leaflets and their faces would light up.
