If you happen to forget to put a stamp on the letter they will have to pay the post office postage plus £1. So please dont forget the stamp. To guarantee acceptance mark the letter as they do IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION THIS IS NOT A CIRCULAR |

| That explains a hell of a lot. Have you ever known any politician to give a straight answer. No matter what the question is all they do is keep repeating themselves whether its the answer to your question or not. Write a letter to a government department and I bet your letters will be replied in a similar way to that of 1st Credit. | |

Perhaps a phone call to Private Eye might be in order? | |

Hi all,
It also explains a reply I had from that very MP.
I wrote and asked his opinion on all the banks and cc companies abusing the courts with their tactics over bank charges, i.e, making people start legal proceedings, and then making offers right at the last minute.
His reply was basically a reiteration of the statement on charges made by the OFT.
Not quite the question I asked, was it?

I might just do that!
I think I'll be telling him in no uncertain terms just what I think about companies like 1st Credit etc!
The letter I wrote to Alan Milburn was passed to the Economic Secretary, Ed Balls, for reply.
By the way, I wrote a similar letter to a certain Mr Blair. The letter was passed to the DTI for a response. Again the reply, from the DTI, only addresses the statement from the OFT.
