This is true tiglet, which is why it's important to get a variety of information where possible and encourage people to research for themselves and check the information they're given. Mods and site helpers are generally no more expert on issues than anyone else on the site, and I certainly include myself in that statement, hence my own sig. Most of the advice that I offer is either from personal experience or what I've learnt on CAG, which is true for many of us I believe.

 

It's important to discuss and debate all ideas, in order to find the best way to proceed in an informed way, and if someone has an idea which is not practical, it's important that an explanation is given as to why, so that everyone can learn and grow. Sometimes off the wall ideas can be just what's needed.;)

The Consumer Action Group is a free help site.

Should you be offered help that requires payment please report it to site team.

Your decisions and actions are your own, and should you be in any doubt, you are advised to seek the opinion of a qualified professional.

Really sorry, but am taking a bit of a break away from the site at the moment as I really need all my energies devoted to sorting out my little one (and me too - sorry if that's selfish :o).

 

I'm sure you guys will continue to do a great job in my absence.

Hey no worries Beaky :p

 

Hope the little one's OK hun - I saw your thread in BG ;)

 

Well, I'm doing my bit tonight (or trying lol)

 

It has to be said that posting on threads with no replies just to help out or bump the post up, can be really interesting as you discover snippets of info which help you or jog your memory to do those jobs you've been meaning to for a while eg:-

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-charges-consumer-issues/151703-warning-estimated-power-bills.html

 

Oh well, back to it :)

Best wishes Tiglet :)

 

 

 

1 thing i've noticed is that it's worth checking threads with 1 reply, as it's often someone doing the '0 views' thing, so they've bumped the thread but still no-one's picked it up :o

 

I haven't been coming on here for as long as i usually am (a lot of family stuff going on), so inbetween keeping up with subscribed threads i'm aiming to do at least a couple of goes a week at the 0 replies.

 

Every little bit helps in my book ;)

I'm midway through the tunnel, but getting closer to the light.

 

 

 

Please be aware that i am not an expert in anything!

I may offer an opinion, but the final decision is yours.

In the first post Michael Browne points out quite rightly that posts are going unanswered, I look through these fairly regularly but has anyone noted the amount of news/rss feeds there are.

Whilst containing useful information it means going back sometimes over severval pages to find posts which need answers

Yes and a lot of them are of dubious usefulness, things like Rover workers being made redundant or Chrysler giving away free petrol to buyers in the US etc etc dating back to 2005, which are neither relevant or current.

 

Newsbot needs to be Cagbotted!! :D

Can someone please do something about Newsbot? Can it not be set to automatically add two posts so he doesn't cause havoc for the zero replies people?

I nearly had heart failure when today's search came up with 257 posts!

Thanks maz1964. A friendly welcome is very welcome to people, especially if they've worried about posting in the first place.

 

Webby has been asked to see what he can do to sort out Newsbot.
