    Talked to ofcom today, was told to keep trying to contact redten HA! even though they cannot get in touch with them.

    just wonder why they so slow in imposing £30000 fine and help redten to go bust. There so plenty cheaper deals around so all customers will be more than happy.

    Don't hold you're breath it took them months to impose a fine in the prodigy case.

  • So am right in saying if you started your Credit Agreement before April 07 the FOS cant help?

    I emailed clode this morning asking when I would get a response to my letters, telling them it was not unreasonable of me to ask for a timeframe given that had a month to sort it out, also copied care at redten about it.

    REDTEN actually responded.
    after all this time what did this great response say.
    One word.

    NO.

    Thanks got another email address for redten then try Alex at redten now.

    They must realise that a response like that is in writing hard evidence,they really dont give a sh*t.

    DISGUSTING

    I cant' believe that the FOS aren't interested if we signed before April 07 - Thats outrageous.Anyway, I have another idea up my sleeve - will report back later!

  • Hi All,

    I noticed this on MSN thought it was intersting, appologise if it's already been up.

    Illegal downloaders have been given an unexpected fillip by the European parliament, which has voted in favour of an amendment that would make a ‘three strikes and out’ system to punish people an infringement against their human rights.
    Although the UK’s government did not ratify any measures for punishing those who were transferring and receiving copyrighted material such as music or movies across the internet, it did suggest that the ISPs should take responsibility for the growing problem.
    In France, the government has thrown its weight behind a three strikes and out system – two warnings for those using peer to peer (P2P) networks to download copyrighted material illegally followed by the suspension of internet access for a third offence.
    Civil liberty
    However, it now appears that any punishments of this ilk are not supported by the European parliament which voted (narrowly) in favour of an amendment that would make removing someone’s internet connection in this way an offence against their civil liberties.
    The amendment "Calls on the Commission and the Member States to recognise that the Internet is a vast platform for cultural expression, access to knowledge, and democratic participation in European creativity, bringing generations together through the information society."
    And therefore: "Calls on the Commission and the Member States to avoid adopting measures conflicting with civil liberties and human rights and with the principles of proportionality, effectiveness and dissuasiveness, such as the interruption of Internet access."
    So, it’s official – you have a human right to be reading this.
