    Yes:(

    I'd rather debate, fight corner whatever but there's only so many times I can take being misrepresented or being told what I think when I've not said anything close.

    And then to be denied the right to an opinion just tops it all off.

    I knew I shouldn't have unignored you but there you go

    Now I also asked
    does it have a benefit system that allows free medication and services as a matter of course
    and you said NO
    You're at it again. You asked if the system operated without asking for proof. I said "no" because it does ask for proof.

    So your comment "So its clear you live in a country that does not give poor and sick people IE people on benefits free medicine as part of their benefits." is completely wrong again.

    You did say you want the NHS to spend resources on reminder you said

    Better still, there wouldn't be all this money wasted chasing up a fee that wouldn't exist but for a few pence on a reminder.

    Sometimes a little money spent saves a lot.- sounds like wanting resources spent to me
    And once again, what you said originally was "You want to spend the NHS resources on stupid things like reminders" to which I responded for the umpteenth time that my concern was the INCONSISTENCY between one department operating a reminder policy while another didn't.


    But you have even missed the context in which that was written. You referred to writing off unpaid fees. So I pointed out that in the case of the OP there would not have been a fee. They are spending money on recovering a fee that wouldn't have been charged had a renewal been done.

    If there really is a lot of money in spent in recovering "unpaid fees" then wouldn't you agree it would be better to spend less not even having that situation in the first place? Hence "a little money spent saves a lot."

    I'd love to. If I'm not misrepresented again then I'll have no reason to come back on this topic.

    For someone not caring, you sure have given a lot of 'thanks' on this thread. I count ELEVEN from you for Londonsu since this became an issue. :rotfl:
