    cant wait to this :beer::j:j
  • Talking of both Sky (card) and debt agencies, I have had a visit from one today. A very nice lady from Sky card ( Barclays) knocked on the door to enquire about the debt. I gave her my BR number, showed her the document and off she went to her next call, she did point out that a fair few on her books were BR. She was a little concerned that the OR seems not to have contacted them. I did not ask for ID or from which (if any) agency she was from.

    It was done and dusted in 5 minutes ;)

    I have told a few people to watch this tonight. It is most likely going to be a scary program to some but also shows people who point a finger at people who are forced to go BR what these companies are really like and what its like for those in serious debt.
