    I never said he replied to everything on here, i said he likely has a quick glance when he is not too busy.

    Do NOT put words in my mouth (or finger tips in this case)!

    And it is not a wind up, it was recommended to me to get intouch so I did, I called his management earlier today but they don't manage this aspect, only his television/ tour appearances.

    And then I posted on the forum in the hopes he or his team would see it but instead I get a load of internet trolls weighing when I don't want to hear from internet trolls, this is what it says on the MSE Twitter:

    "Founded by @MartinSLewis dedicated to cutting your costs, finding deals, beating the system & fighting your corner. RTs aren't endorsements."

    This part in particular, I have not received today 'beating the system & fighting your corner'

    I don't even know why I'm still posting to be honest, I don't like the forum culture of the internet, I said I want to hear from experts or at least people in the know, not armchair bloggers who have nothing better to do, than to weigh in on something they don't understand!

    If you post on an internet forum to expect to hear from experts or be personally contacted by the very busy Martin Lewis you are very deluded.

    You have already been to the experts and they didn't tell you what you wanted to hear so you decided they were "useless".

    You have had 17 years to sort this out!!!!. You could have paid it back many times over by then but you have decided not to, so it's your own fault.

    The thing is, Martin is not some magical wizard who can solve all financial problems; he is a journalist. A journalist with a website. Of course his management aren't going to give a monkeys about your personal issues; he's a journalist, not Citizens Advice.

    Honestly, I struggle to see where he would help where the Financial Ombudsman Service couldn't, since FOS has the power to order NatWest to do things, and from what I can tell it looked over the OPs case and it didn't think it stacked up very well.

    I'm interested OP, when you went through FOS did you take it to a full ombudsman's decision? Either way, what was their reasoning for not upholding your complaint?

    I'm struggling to understand how you got 6 defaults for the same product? Are you saying all 6 came from not paying back the original consolidation loan?

    Or have you defaulted on 5 other financial products?

    If your argument is that the original agreement with Natwest caused you to get credit and not pay it back another 5 times, you're not going to get anywhere with that.
    What was your original compaint to the \ombudsman?

    OP is clearly a troll and/or deluded.

    Can this thread be closed please? Feeding trolls is bad.
  • LOL poor OP, its hard being a victim for 30 years. Still you can always blame the tories, even when they are not in power :)
    The instructions on the box said 'Requires Windows 7 or better'. So I installed LINUX :D:D
