    This is a company from which even bailiffs return empty-handed when they go to enforce CCJs for unpaid cashback.
    What evidence do you have for this Cobra? I assume you're quoting post 747 by AFH1066. In that post AFH1066 says the first time bailiffs visited no one was there. "Empty handed" suggests that bailiffs were entirely unsuccessful.

    To answer your question would involve quoting publicly information contained in PMs I have received privately - and which clearly, but understandably, you have not.

    (PS. Would you please stop PMing me yourself: I need the space in my mailbox for messages more constructive than your endless diatribes.)

    If you’re waiting for an overdue cashback from The Mobile Outlet (which, incidentally, excludes some of the people who are posting on this thread who have yet even to file a claim) one of the things you can do to while away the time is see where your cashback is actually hiding.

    Enter TMO’s postcode - BD17 7AD - into Google Earth and you will be whisked in seconds to a bird’s eye-view of the building.

    Sadly, the resolution is not quite high enough for you to espy the good bailiffs of Bradford going about their lawful business but at least you are spared the aroma of ever-ripening cheeses wafting from its mailroom.

    So, which car, do you think, is the managing director’s?

    Seizing that would pay off a lot of outstanding CCJs.

    re post #65: I think it's unfair for you to quote 3rd hand information that no one else has access to. If the person concerned wishes to make the information public, then from that time it enters the public domain.

    I hope that your solicitor friend is reading up on the laws of libel; if you carry on as you are, you could be asking for his services....

    If you have to have made a claim before you can comment on TMO then realise that it works both ways.

    It seems to me that there are a lot less people posting about problems on here than a while back. TMO admit they have had problems in the past and are putting their house in order.

    I'm not libel expert, but constant references to the solvency of a company without evidence (noted that they are always with a comment that there is no proof) surely edge in libel territory?

    grayme-m.....exactly, there are an awful lot less posters with problems on here now, thanks to TMO taking what I see as a positive step in participating on here and helping sort out issues. Hopefully they will get back on an even keel soon and then there would be no need for this thread at all, however I'm also realistic enough to know that some people will never be satisfied no matter what.

    Cobra, how about being less inflammatory and slightly more constructive....you never know, it may just work.....

    The reason that people are posting on here, Gunjack, is because they are not getting their cashbacks.

    If, and when, TMO does start paying them on time, people will stop posting on here things that offend your sensibilities.

    What really annoys those whose cashback is overdue is being preached to by people whose own cashback is not yet outstanding and, in some cases, by people who have not yet even filed a claim.

    Unless and until somebody is in the position of having their cashback overdue and unpaid they cannot appreciate the problem about which they are opining because they have no experience of it.

    Let us see if the sanctimonious take the same generous approach when their own cashback is unpaid and overdue. Will you, Gunjack?

    And as for your "let's give TMO a chance to clean up its act, guys" approach, what chance do you think TMO will give YOU to clean up YOUR act if you file any of your own cashback claims one day late?

    If you wade thropugh the old thread you will see just how many times in the past TMO has said it was getting things sorted out. And then didn't.

    As far as cashback goes, I am totally in agreement with the point made by "grayme-m" - that things work both ways. TMO sets the rules of the contract, in its own Terms & Conditions. If we abide by them and TMO then don't, then I, for one, shall be as uncompromising with TMO as TMO would be with me. That's the bottom line.

    The solvency or otherwise of TMO is a matter upon which it is for everybody to form their own opinion, based upon the information that is available. What's important is that people keep posting on here whatever information they have that will enable others to do this.

    (PS, Gunjack, have you noticed the degree to which your signature is out of kilter to what you are posting?)

    My point is that that appears to be the case; just you are so wrapped up in your one man war you can't see it (and I doubt want to).

    There are people posting on here that haven't made a claim arguing how BAD TMO is, what do you say to them?
