I am now at the stage been issued with a Part 36. I have visited the Citizen Advice again who actually rang ACS Law who said I have not replied to them (this was advised by the CAB to ignore them until if or when court papers were issued) I was told by ACS that I must reply to them they would kindly give me 28 days very nice when I havnt done anything. They have reduced the fee to £350.00 how kind again of them. Tiscali have said they have never given my info out to ACS and that they think its a [problem].

 

So now I am feeling like really upset and well stressed about what I should do.

 

Help please is anyone at the same stage as me.

Tiscali have said they have never given my info out to ACS and that they think its a [problem].
They were ordered by a high court along with several other ISPs to provide the information.

(this was advised by the CAB to ignore them until if or when court papers were issued)
CAB have again mis-advised you, you should have sent a letter of denial. ACS will go after people who they think are easy targets, those that don't respond to them in the hope that they will get a judgement by default because the defendent fails to to respond.

 

Have you read through the thread indicated in post #10? That will explain what is going on and how to respond.

Thanks for replying so soon cant believe this now think I will just go an scream at the wall for a few mins

 

Its best to join the 'proper' ACS Law thread that has been linked to a few times, as you will see its very huge so you certainly arn't alone.

 

Its a pity that the advice you have been given has mostly been rubbish, copyright theft is extremely complicated and there is no way that CAB (as good as they are for certain cases) know anything about it.

 

Tiscali are again talking rubbish, i dont think they are actually lying as such, its just that the call centre staff have no knoweledge of this, they are just there to answer queries about bills, etc. BUT as pointed out before, ACS have approached a court and got your details from Tiscalli, wether this information is accurate is of course questionable.

 

This situation has now been going on for over 6 months and it would appear that there have been no court cases.

 

ACS now appear to be asking people for info about their PC's, routers, etc..it would be very wise not to supply this information although as many of the so called 'offences' occurred upto 18 months ago it highly unlikely that anyone would have this information.

Thanks Andy

 

I CAB were wonderful but you were right they didn't have any contacts with this particular field.

 

I would even know how to access the information if they wanted in the first place. I am going to try and contact student law office as I am on a low income.

 

Will keep you informed on what happens thanks again

If you are using a wirless connection (wi-fi) unless you have a secure connection it is highly likely that someone has hijacked your connection, in effect you're a 'hot spot' which anyone can access, so make sure you are at least WAP enabled, preferably WAP2.

Hi Chrisash

 

No update so far fingers crossed. Not totally sure myself what a Part 36 is but I was told by CAB that I needed to respond to it as the next stage would be court papers.

 

Sorry I havn't been help.

 

I know I have been told to stop panicking about this (easier said than done) but many other people have received the same.

 

Will keep you informed if anything happens, I dread the post arriving.

Everyone keeps going on about unsecured wi-fi connections. Believe me, the software is out there which allows users to log-on to secured connections. Nothing is 100% secure, most wi-fi secured connections are only about 60% secure at the most.

Icy1, people have already pointed you in the direction of the other thread on CAG.

 

Generally, the advice given from anyone with any legal training has been (if you didn't do it) to reply and deny.

Hi thanks I did use Being Threatened Web Site I agree it is really good. I still can't help being nervous when the postman delivered anything at the moment. But thanks for advice, I was actually trying to help someone else.

As far as I understand it, those links have previously been approved by the site owner (and posted previously in multiple threads).

 

They're hardly links to phishing sites. And definitely not irrelevent.

Given the reference to CAG which appear,there are very good reasons to be unapproving them.

I would'nt worry too much about this now, I reckon Mr. ACS Law may have far more pressing problems like paying a 500k fine, losing clients, fighting off several litigation cliams and generally having to remortgage his house to pay the mounting debts he is gonna face in the coming months

We live in an unmoderated country why should the net be any different?

Bring back free speech we miss it!
