Hi everyone. I'm new to the forum, and I really need some help! Here's a (very) brief summary of my plight: Back in June, my dear father died of brain cancer. during the last few days of his life, and for a day or two after he'd passed away, someone had ruthlessly helped themselves to his Halifax credit card. In all, approximately £1,500 worth of goods were purchased -- cigarettes, a personalised bottle of expensive whiskey, a computer from PC World (including a registration to Norton Antivirus) and clothing from very.co.uk. I notified both the police and Halifax of the crime. I provided the details of the alleged perpetrator (a close family member). Halifax investigated the case, concluded that fraud had taken place, and refunded the money; however, they will not proceed to notify the police of their findings -- they state that it is not in their policy to prosecute. The police will not investigate the incident -- they have advised that it is Halifax who are the victims of the crime, not my late father and his family. As it stands, the person responsible for the crime will not be held responsible for their actions. The person who's bedroom I found one of the stolen cards in; the person who had the Whiskey they purchased for their boyfriend's birthday inscribed with his name; the person who registered the purchased antivirus software in their name; the person who's wearing the lovely new cloths they purchased using my dying father's credit card, while they're sitting opposite me at the table right now -- laughing at me! Surely something can be done here?! Can anyone help? This is NOT about the money; this is about holding a criminal responsible for their actions.
