    I have complained to THE OFFICE OF FAIR TRADING about POWER 2 CONTACT as they pushed a card through my door ( all writing on show )saying ring this number re county court judgement ,other people live here who know nothing about my situation and read the card when they picked it up off the mat, also the guy I spoke to was very aggresive in manner on the phone and screamed see you in court at me.ALso on the card it quoted a Halifax ref no.OFT have received my complaint and are keeping it on file as they collect this info and if they get other complaints of a simular nature about the same company they can remove their licence.[/QUOTE

    I must admit I did ask my OH to ring the number (mbl) left on the card as I was so worried it was to do with bailiffs :( But he didn't, actually, he wouldn't. Then, I registered here on the board. I'd been following (aka lurking) the board for a while.......hovering?!
    That card tipped me over & i'm so glad it did really as I have had such response, support & help from people I don't even know......amazing :)

    just checking? Can't find Yawb on a members search?

    One of the forum's predators at a guess. He's not going to help you for free unlike the help you can find yourself here.

    Some people should be ashamed of themselves. (I apologise unreservedly if I have got this accusation wrong, it just looked suspicious to me).

    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.
