The Red Cross have started to annoy people in their own homes now, not just in the high street!!
Have to admit, not encountered the Red Cross in High Street (many others I have) but have twice had Red Cross at home in the last 2 months. Once when I was in my front garden so they saw me before I saw them so I couldn't hide. The guy was very persistant.Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free
Mortgage free since 20140 -
I just apologise and say I don't have a bank account but I'd love to chat to someone about my IBS

I dont think they are allowed to follow you and to be honest if they did I tell them to P off. I try and avoid anyone with a clip board or anyone who is trying to sell me anything0
