Can anyone help me? I am looking for a thread I read a while ago about a man that was running a martial arts scam.

Poor update of computer databases
There are many computer records that seem to be impossible to get changed, on moving house for example. This week, I contacted the claims department of my car insurers. They had a phone number for me that is eight years out of date, after two changes of address. This morning, I received a letter from the DVLA in Sidcup,…

Clearing banks' 3 day scam
As a newbie to the board, I'm sorry if this has been brought up before, but it really pi... annoys me. My grief is the 3 days that it takes clearing banks to move money. The whole point of being a clearing bank is that they have a system with which they move money between each other painlessly. Now, we all know that it is…
