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.
I've just had a cold caller at my door trying to tell me that AOL,Pipex & Tiscali are bust & CPW have taken over their business. The jist of the conversation was "you should be getting free broadband & calls & shouldn't be paying BT for your line rental....sign up with me & you'll pay a total of only £21.99 a month" When I asked for some written details of the deal & confirmation that "if I didn't do anything AOL would cut off my broadband" she said she could "sign me up in 2 minutes" & when I insisted on written details she got decidedly stroppy, so I said goodbye & shut the door. I assumed this was some [problem] to get commission for signing me up to this deal and using CPWs' connections in the BT exchange? I forgot to tell her I'd been on the phone to AOL on thursday & there was no mention of any of this.
The problem is sales reps get commision for sales, so they exagerate the truth. AOL uk has been owned by CPW for a while, and tiscali has been taken over recently.
