Banks are processing refunds.
Copycatism is being tackled at government level...

Why are they taking these actions against businesses that you have stated are legal and are not yet breaking any laws rules or regulations?

However, I know for a fact that these companies are legal.
But they are also at the 'verge' of breaking the rules, laws and regulations.

one day on this forum has pushed me to it!.....I cant believe what I have seen on here.... People constantly knocking others, very little is constructive which surely should be the aim of this site. I am only interested in sharing my experience for the benefit of others......

You should go visit competitions time, everyone is help full on there.
I think if house had anything constructive or helpful people would have left the OP alone.
As it is house has posted inaccurate unhelpful and wrong info, as such s/he is being held to right the wrongs. But s/he can't help but keep posting wrong info. We would be derelict if we left it up as correct.

Much amused by long term posters being 'outed' as trolls.

Just for the record just because someone disgrees with you it doesn't make them a troll.

Still I suppose it makes a change from accusing them of working for the companies.

This thread has become a joke now - thanks to the OPs repeated returns to his OP to re-edit and re-edit and to his apparent inability to decide what, exactly, he means. As confusing, in fact, as the sites he purports to despise. And, possibly, an influx of AEs.

Time it was closed, methinks.

Think you hit the nail on the head here.

I'm all for it being closed too.

Oh dear Libbybeth

Trolling indeed.

For a Newbie, you have an appalling attitude, you won't last long on this forum.

Oh dear must have touched a nerve eh, I have been a member of this site for a long time, longer than you infact, as for deleting my posts, no it wasnt me but perhaps someone pushed the report button as they didnt like them and the moderators removed them......I dont have a problem with that. If standing up to the people that post ridiculous comments like you did is appalling behaviour then quilty as charged. Good luck with your hundreds of posts.....:wave::wave:

Maybe your daughter got them removed seeing as i quoted her post ?

What ridiculous comments do you refer to ?

Oooo there you go again you just can't help yourself, the one above for a start together with the original one where you decided that as I has responded to a member who happens to be female and around the same age as my own daughter in order to help her regain her money that she really is my daughter - you really need to get a grip...... what will you come up with next? That Martin Lewis is my dad? I repeat incase you are hard of hearing....I am on here to help others who are trying to reclaim their money from copycat government websites such as the one my daughter used, I am not in the habit of replying to my daughter (according to you) via a forum nor do I have two accounts and switch between them who on earth could be bothered with that rubbish. I don't play games but perhaps you do? If you want to continue to think that go ahead - but book a visit to see a therapist too, you must have been posting on here far too much...oh you have..... tut@ my apalling behaviour....

This thread has gone well beyond its best before and use by date.
It's stale.
It's full of useless advice, selectively ignored ripostes, and not a little paranoia.
House, I don't like you, your ideas and I won't be investing any more time.
I'm oot.

In the few posts you have made on this thread, you have accused 2 people of being trolls and 1 of pontificating. How has that helped anyone ?

You also failed to answer the one question i asked - which website did your daughter use ?

Surely that would be more helpful than name calling ?
