  • Hey guys

    Just an update,

    I got a letter through yesterday in regards to it.

    Cut a long story short

    "Although we were right to issue a ticket and procedures were followed correctly to our clients services we have decided as a gesture of goodwill to cancel this charge".


    I am happy that these scaremongers seen sense however it is the wording of this I feel they should be ashamed of. Correct but backing down?

    Don't be such a sceptic Walt, they've told you, it's a 'gesture of good will'. Surely you will be eternally grateful to them. :rotfl:

    [STRIKE]How unthankful can you get[/STRIKE]. Very well done!
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    Their backing down seems to be a standard template letter - I got exactly the same from UKPC:):) - naturally I was overcome with gratitude!!!!
    I chose to just let it go at that - they are low-life scum but just about smart enough to know which fights to fight - if they want to think they are all magnanimous, thats fine with me, so long as they have got none of my money.:):)

    Sounds like it was your complaint to McDonalds that did it so I will add your success to the sticky thread about successful complaints about PPCs.

  • Definitely coupon mad. McDonalds also had the cheek to ring me to "investigate" it at 7.30am...Sunday morning last week which I stated ny concern too.
