    But why have they told me contact another company?
  • I think its because your account is actually with GE Money. Dorothy perkins would have been the referrer and the GE Money product is no doubt dressed up as the "Dorothy Perkins Storecard". The limit of DP's involvement is no doubt limited the fee they got from GE at the outset!

    However that being said it would be useful if they had of forward your e-mail on to GE Money!

    I emailed Dorothy Perkins about 20 mins ago with the following:

    I am writing to request a copy of all of my statements from when i opened my Dorothy Perkins Store card until toay 14/11/08.
    Account no: xxxxxxxxxx
    I am fully aware that i have a legal right to these statements under the data protection act.

    You do not have a legal right to the statements - you have the right to see the details held about you but the format given by the company will not necessarily be in the form of a statement.

    Same principle, always worth a try. Write to them using the template letters on Martin's reclaim section, I am sure you will get something back.
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:
