If someone does a heart surgery of these posters, you now know what they would find it written:
"we respect and praise lawful companies coning people on a public forum" all over :rotfl:

Hpuse, surely you have some advice for yet another victim of one of these rogue sites.
Hint: heart surgery is not the answer.

Or are you just going to continue your attack of other posters?

As a newbie to MSE having read through other threads about ukpassport.net I am very surprised that what seems to clearly be people associated with the company are allowed to justify what is a pretty scandalous and deliberately misleading activity

Come on, we all know really, which member of hpuse's family are you?

Perhaps if I die I'll try and make sure my eyes are left to people who typically don' read what they're signing up to even when it's not concealed in small print.

Have you stopped reading the posts above yours before you post?

I'm sure you must have......

Let me make it perfectly clear to you:
I dislike these websites intensely.

I just have enough sense to know that 'best practice, moral obligation and what is right' is worth absolutely nothing when a website is operating legally. I'm overlooking nothing.

So I don't bother bleating about 'best practice, moral obligation and what is right' as it serves no purpose whatsoever.

Outrage against these websites is going to get you nowhere.
Legal is legal.

You really do need to try to understand the difference between posters acknowledging the reality about these websites and 'defending, supporting, being employed by or affiliated to' them.

Do try harder.

Actually, they've got me bang to rights - I joined the forum 7 years ago and made a few hundered posts on various topics, just in case I ever needed to defend my site www.totallyofficialpassportapplicationhonestgovuk.co.

I run the site in my spare time when I'm not working for various loan brokers and the other usual suspects.

You do talk some tripe.

Not one of the posters has shown respect for these companies.

Not one has praised them.

Who do you think continues to ALLOW these companies to operate within the law?

The people who make the laws - that's who!

So save your pathetic comments for the agencies and departments who have failed to legislate against these companies. The Trading Standards departments cannot act to bring these companies to book because they are not breaking the law. So NEW LAWS ARE NEEDED TO OUTLAW CLONE AND COPYCAT WEBSITES.

I strongly think these legal-defending-posters have a right to remain silent, and they should exercise that for their own benefit in a public form.

The more these posters open their "caring attitudes" to rip-off companies, the more mockery they stand and subject themselves to get from hpuse. :rotfl:

Now peace, hpuse is logging off for next 5-6 hrs. Will be back.

Any chance it could be 5 or 6 years?

Regular MSE posters are not defending these companies. We don't need to. They operate within the law and they hide behind the sections of the DSRs which allow them NOT to offer a cooling-off period.

The law of the land provides these companies with not only the right to operate but also gives them a get -out in the DSRs.

But you continue to blame faceless posters for allowing these companies to continue to operate and they will indeed continue to operate.

But not because of us.

They continue to operate because you and people like you fail to read what you are buying, thus providing them with the money to make their profits.

They continue to operate because the Government has not yet seen fit to amend any legislation which would force them to change their operations, their systems or their website.

One thing is certain. Posters on this thread, such as myself, who have the nous not to use non gov.uk websites when buying Government services are doing NOTHING AT ALL to keep these websites going.

I renewed my passport last year through https://www.gov.uk/renew-adult-passport So none of the 'clone' websites made a penny from me!

So the fact that these websites continue to operate is down to YOU hpuse, and people like you.

You forgot to add something - law of the land also gives permission for "attitude formation" on a public forum; i.e towards someone stuck bitterly on a public forum for not reading T&Cs and getting ripped off .

But not because of us.

US???.... So that means you represent posters here who have made that a habit.
Which side of the fence? Right or left ?

Once again, if you exercise the right to remain silent - I wouldn't be writing all this.

Valli

us = those of us (the general public) who have not used these dodgy websites.

What has right or left got to do with anything?

I'm on the side of the fence where I don't blithely assume a top google hit is necessarily the best link for the business I wish to transact.
