Just read those pete ......great stuff!

 

With the press explaining to customers that it's not all over ...... this could be a roller -coaster for the banks .....:D . and ,as the Brum Post is saying , the banks knew the implications of the judgement before us and hoped we'd all miss the loophole ... fat chance ! I'm beginning to have a sneaky admiration for Lord Phillips & Co ........:rolleyes:

The news at first sight was awful but as always with legal people you have to read exactly what they say :rolleyes:.

 

The banks have won against the OFT but the Supreme Court has also left a huge hole in their argument so we need to make that hole bigger and give it wheel chair access so we can all get through :D.

Nice one Freaky ! :D

 

The banks have been unusually quiet about all this .... I think they know there's a hole below the waterline and are trying to keep it to themselves . :rolleyes:

They also said they'd deal with the millions of 'held' complaints(which have to be dealt with in 8 weeks now that the waiver is lifted) 'in an orderly fashion'

The only way I can see them doing that is by a million template letters saying basically - "The Supreme Court said we won ..... goodbye and don't complain again ......... " . A lot of people , like the gentleman on the TV yesterday will say "Oh,dear ! OK! " and leave it at that .

I think our job is to let as many as possible know that they can still go to court with their claims .:)

HSBC have certainly been quiet about this.

You just know from all the evasive interviews given by the likes of Angela Knight that they are not sure what's going to happen next.

 

I heard one chap on the Jeremy Vine show yesterday ( his name escapes me cos I'm old) who said "if people would just stop spending for a couple of months and build themselves a financial cushion they would not get themselves in difficulty" or something similar.

 

What a genius!!! If only I'd thought of that. :rolleyes:

well I'll write to the council and the gas and electric people and tell them the bank say I cant spend anything for two months, and give up eating :rolleyes:

 

I wonder how big his bonus was freaky? lol

DCA's - they have the same power as an infinite number of untrained chimps working on a script for Hamlet, but the chimps would probably at least get it right :D

Hi lisa , glad your son's recovering Ok ....hope this year is better for you than last ....... :)

 

Are you saying you've received the standard template letter from the bank saying "we won -you lost -now buzz off and don't complain again ! " - or words to that effect . ?

 

If so , you could send a letter (like pete castlebest's, suitably amended) :rolleyes: to let them know you're not giving up just yet ....
