  • I am absolutely addressing the matter at hand Truthman.

    I have also read other threads you have posted in which you have accused other people of being racist!

    I don't know you from Adam but let me tell you, whether you are black, white or khaki i will say the same thing.

    If it was fraudsters they would try your account by ' testing ' it with small amounts then move on to bigger debits.

    Working in the Fraud department of a high street bank i would know these things.

    Mobile phone top ups are a favourite of fraudsters.

    What you describe doesn't seem to follow a traditional fraud pattern, otherwise you would have seen more and larger debits from your account/card aswell as the one to 3.

    Is the transaction a repeat one?

    If the bank paid you back originally why was your card not cancelled at the time?

    I hopeyou get the matter settled to your satisfaction.

    it happened 3 months ago aswell,

    I thought may be next time it will never happen bank controlled the spammer that's why did not worry too much that time. Even i was not told by bank to change card. I was not aware of these scam before.

    I'm not accuse everyone is racist but when someone speak like racist in a different way very cleverly, i can easily catch them, i never missed that to point out, otherwise racist will never change.

    Don't feed the trolls!!!

    And yes Truthman you are indeed a troll, who the hell mentioned your race in this thread. Talk about trying to wind posters up over something not even mentioned. You really are pathetic. Mind you here you will be back complaining because I called you pathetic. Although sometimes I do think you are a well-balanced person ( yep, a chip on EACH shoulder)

    But then again you will come back with your bulls**t "pidgeon english" with your chip on your shoulder about how everybody who disagrees/criticises/calls you out is a racist.

    I have never met anyone in real life who has had half the problems you seem to have.I am surprised you want to get up in the morning.

    And no I don't work for any company with 3 in their name, I just think you are a waste of skin

    Thanks for your comments, I'm always very well balanced. If you expect proper English and my English is not good, don't read my post, Dont come here to vomit your stupid talking about my English which is irrelevant to the subject what we discuss here.

    I keep learning English all the time, This much English i have learned in 1 year, you learn another language then you can realise how much hard is learning another language. First tried to learn others then learn another language that will teach you lots of lesson for your life and who knows it might change your life.

    I'm really happy for myself. I feel i'm much much better than ..... I'm really clear and concise what i am talking about. I'll have to treat IDIOTS in their way as well. As i said before if you dont understand my english please, please dont read my post. I'm not bothered.

    You're saying you have nothing to do with 3?

    Seems to suggest otherwise......

    Previous thread I meant finacially no deal with 3, i never gave my credit card detail to them, but this 3 Mainhead is not three, it is different people having similar name to cheat.

    I dont think so 3 mainhead and three.co.uk are same, even there are many web sites exists which are just3g, simple3g are they all three.co.uk companies? no.

    Big companies normally dont scam like this that's what i think.

    Truthman, you were on here a while ago complaining(as usual) about problems you were having with your 3 mobile. Therefore I assume you do/did have a financial connection.

    And maybe you would spend less time on here if you stopped ranting about everything. You have had it in for, amongst many others, PC World, Comet, Dixons, Virgin Media, 02, Tesco etc, etc. Wouldn't it be much quicker to list the companies who don't have it in for you?;)
