Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.

Is that announcement an April Fool's joke...why would all consumer issues be sold to the banks?
Unfortunately, its bad news Spicey.
Its not just consumer issues as far as I know. I've been told (met a sharp cookie called Angie Blight - works in the City somewhere??) that it's actually consumers that have been sold.
This it is hoped will kick start the economic rebirth of our country. The other benefit to the banks is that everything can be kept in house.
Not sure whats in it for us though. Perhaps we get a discount on PPI.
Any advice given by me is based solely on my experience in claiming, my experience in CAG or my opinion. I have no legal background. I want to encourage others to reclaim what is theirs.
Got a DCA breaking OFT guidance. Complain to the OFT about the DCA. Help put an end to these practices-
I know what date it is...but TBH that is not even funny...considering that this very construct was mentioned in the early days of CAG...I think Dave mentioned £2 million or something close...

No I don't think it is very funny either especially for any newbies who visit the site today looking for help - they are probably not in the mood to even realise it's a joke as their minds will be elsewhere - some will be so worried about their situation they won't even know the time of day let alone the date - not impressed I'm afraid

I must admit JC I agree.
Having a really bad day with various personal issues & stuff through the post and when I read the headline that was the straw that broke the donkey's back.
ok so my state of complete desperation only lasted only a while before I started looking for alternatives and found this thread but it was a very low 10mins.
and no I didn't realise the date - my mind was elsewhere

You might be in line for a dividend, Lula. Dave will have seen to that in the negotiations.

Have to agree with JC (again ) here.... any newbies, or oldies for that matter, may start distrusting the site; believing it to be part of the Old Boys' Network, like everythng else seems to be....
Just a thought guys.

I can't understand why the announcement is still there, and an explanation and apology isn't...

(You're only annoyed because no-one will top my offer of the 2 Ginsters and lemonade. )
I'm not annoyed...probably because that is not really an offer...
So, which clever clogs thought that announcement would be funny? Personally I think they should be hung, drawn and quartered, and then the quarters rubbed with salt until it hurts...

Because it's before midday, and it's a joke.
I'm not the British government - where the minority bleat on about something and then the majority have something imposed upon them because it it.
