FAO Debt Doctor

Hi and welcome to the board.

I notice from your posting that you mention several times that you are an advisor with the CAB, Perhaps it would be a nice idea to put that in your signature so you don't have to keep repeating yourself and everyone will know that they are getting proffesional advice.

I know the CCCS guys have excellent signatures.

Thanks for joining the board and giving us brilliant advice advice.

  • debt doctor, I think tigerfeet's idea is a good one. However, please get the mods/board guides to approve the signature first if it will include links, as no-one's allowed to put links in their signature without their consent. :)

    A further FAO Debt Doctor....

    Sorry if anything I have posted has offended you.... I worked at a particularly crappy CAB some years ago.. before LSC contracts were brought into play and we were always told by our manager to signpost anyne on to an IP if compliacted issues.. She was scared to death of us being sued for mis-advice.. hence my attitude to CABx.. However times have a changed and I should not presume all CABx are like the one I was at... So, biig apologies to you.. xxxx

    NO offence taken plumbduff, I have some worries about the 'frontline service' myself. I must say though that our CAB never reffers to an IP,but we do have our own in house debt, welfare benefits, housing and employment specialists.

    If anyone feels they have not received adequate information, they should asked to be reffered to a specialist, and ask for a copy of their case record, which is their right.

    Your right to speak out - dont be censored !!
