A national day of anti DCA action!

[kurvaface]

Quite right.

 

Any action that does not cost the DCA directly is pointless or next to pointless.

We really do need to change gear guys, the 24th is fast approaching!

 

Which DCA's are we going to target first?

 

And hopefully, you are all going to bombard the OFT and Gareth Thomas @ BERR as well.

 

Lastly, it has been suggested that, it would be a good idea to advise the media about the Campaign.

Just about to mention that issue, ie without media attention, many people won't even know you are doing that or what it is about.

Have you advised other forums on the interweb on what you are doing and why you are doing it?(I know one other forum has been told cos I spotted it earlier today ).

What they are complaining about and how to complain about it?

Bet he or she is Scottish(love the rivalry which is why the Romans built a wall---to keep em out ).

[kurvaface]

Yeah...

 

This thread needs a bigger profile.

It's only had a few thousand hits and you can bet many of them are repeat visitors. How many of them are going to take any action?

[Kraken1]

Not to get shot at again for suggesting that folk have erred - but gareth thomas and berr have gone. It is something else and someone else now.

 

Good luck with this and I hope my earlier concerns do not materialise. I will drop the OFT and local MP an email.

[scared001]

I can see how this could be deemed offensive to cesspits up and down the country being compared, consider it changed.

 

Focusing on the protest, as stated we have less than a week left, social networking sites are the way forward.

 

Email everyone you know the chances are someone has been affected by a DCA and wants to contribute to the cause

[kurvaface]

Hmmmm... something tells me that many wont be so keen to let the whole world know they have had a dca in their lives. It's a bit like admitting having an std.

this is the type of stigma that these DCA rely on:mad:

 

folks who are embarrassed by past mistakes,

 

or the ones that have actually payed debts that were not theirs.

 

fear of others knowing, the shame of being dragged into court.

 

so they pay up,or worry their selves sick if they just cannot.

 

change of circumstances,falling into arrears,for what ever reason is a fact of life.

 

nobody should be afraid to admit to having issues with a dca.

 

name them,shame them,and above all try to put a stop to their underhand practices.

 

before we have more suicides.

Totally agree Sam!

 

Personally speaking, I certainly do not feel ashamed or, embarassed.

More like bluddy furious at the Banks, who have passed the buck by selling my accounts to DCA's; accounts that were, still are in dispute.

 

If my PPI had not failed, I would not be in the position that I am in now...

being pursued by DCA's who know nothing of what has gone on before the accounts were passed over to them.

[skegleg]

is this still going ahead ?

[Big Boss Man]

is this still going ahead ?

 

All my letters are in the envelopes with CAG Stickers on ready to go, ive also got a number of draft emails ready to be sent from my CAG Email !

 

Is it best to send tomorrow via recorded delivery or first thing Tuesday morning ? ? ?

[SURFBOY]

same here, letters and emails ready to be sent on the 24th.

[Blondmusic]

I wrote 9 complaints to 7 different DCA's last night and sent them out by second class post this morning. I headed each letter Formal Complaint and gave each DCA 10 working days to reply with a copy of their complaints procedure. It's a start.

 

If i don't get any reply's then i will be complaining by email and reporting them to the OFT.

[skegleg]

sorted and all ready to go

[UnmoderatetheNet]

Okay this is interesting my friend has the following to say and I quote 'Okay so were not at the hiring Temps stage to cover workload but two of my bosses are really not happy at the possible increased strain on Corry (Correspondence).'

 

Just remember replying to letters is no longer cost effective, scary letters and replies to CCA requests just cost money with nothing coming in. If one DCA is clearly not happy about this and others will def. remember the 24th June, if you you've not already done so please contribute and lets make this a success and follow up with other planned coordinated action.

 

Thanks Cagger's

I wonder what reaction all those poor postroom staff had this morning

[kurvaface]

so when do we debrief?

 

[sillygirl1]

My petition was accepted! Here is the link to it.

 

Petition to: state that only the original creditor can place a negative marker on your credit file. | Number10.gov.uk

 

Got a few signatures already from CAGGERS, obviously need some more.

 

I also made three telephone calls...

 

One to Cap1 where I kept asking what had happened to my pizza....

One to Westcot where I asked them to stop phoning me - without giving my phone number as I now didn't have one due to poverty...

One to Moorcroft also asking what had happened to my pizza

 

All made from a mobile phone with a one time SIM card

[kurvaface]

Congratulations Sillygirl.

 

I've signed and I'll copy the link everywhere I can:)
