| | Site Team | Re: Motley Fool Spotted it and posted my opinion on another thread. Still don't know how to link so sorry for repeating myself. I just Googled bank charges to see how the site is doing there now. No sign of it, but Motley Fool was about second down so I clicked on there. There was an article by this guy who was passing on his "experiences". He did have several links to CAG which was good, and freely admitted to "adapting" some of the templates here.
All good you may think.
I was not impressed.
1. His Data Protection Act letter (drafted himself) made no mention of paying the £10 fee, and did not ask for information on manual interventions.
2. 18 days after his first article he writes another and apparently he has had so many emails in response to the first that he hasn't had time to buy a stamp for his adapted letter to the bank yet.
I am sure there were other things wrong too but I am no expert.
Luckily he has had time to solve the tricky issue of calculating interest on claims so we can all rest easy in our beds now.
I hope that CAG doesn't get its reputation tarnished by this kind of jumping on the band wagon.
Apparently his mum is a lawyer so he gets all his legal advice from her. Bless him.
Motley Fool - hmm - let me think for a moment! Or am I alone in this opinion?

| | Site Team The Consumer Action Group | Re: Motley Fool Unfortunately his link does not help us very much. It is linked to the Forum page and not to the homepage: www.consumeractiongroup.c o.uk
Any link that doesn't go simply to that page is not helping us and one of the reason's why we have such poor Google rankings is because most links go to the forum. Anyone got time to contact them and ask them to change the link?
