    write to brittania, and state they have sent you unsolicited mail. and therefore unless they pay the postage for the item to be returned to them , under the law after 3 months you are entitled to keep it. it works

    Everyone dump this terrible company, they are not worth the effort.
    Pay them nothing if you haven't ordered something, and get out of there!

    Do the same with World Books!! :(

    Re World Books.
    I have an account with them. Original offer of 5 books for 1p each then a certain number (can remember how many) at full price.
    As Martin's advice re closing credit card accounts, I am going a step further and closing all account for anything I no longer use.
    When I called them to close this account I was informed that I had not meet the full criteria and had to take one more book at full price. This is 5 years later!!! Rip off con artists - that's another story.
    Anyway that's not really the issue. My question is, if they send out a book ie Editor's choice and I follow through with the 'unsolicited mail' thing posted above and refuse to pay if they don't send the postage, could I then find my details logged with a credit reference agency as non payment?
    Hope this makes sense.

    When you sign up to Britannia ypu agree to accept their terms and have you tell them monthly that you don't want the Disc of the month until you have fulfilled the T & C's.

    I have just checked my account with this company and found that they have no full priced recordings on my order history of which I find strange. When taking out their intial offer you pay for one full priced recording and get three free. But as time as gone by they refuse to believe that I have ordered full priced recordings and therefore keep me indefinatly tied to them.

    I have disputed their figures from day one and the response from them is that I am in the wrong, I believe this time they have some explaining to do.

    Has anyone else got any evidence of under hand dealing with this company as as a group we can put it forward to BBC watch Dog as I think its time this company was investigated and reported to the Office Of Fairtrade.

    I haven't got any evidence but I'm sure that watchdog have featured them before now. Send them your complaints, I'm sure they'd love to add to their big fat file on Britannia. ;D
