As for the idiots that needed rescuing, requiring a hefty donation to the MRT would seem to be the minimum they should get away with.


Indeed , beggars belief , Maybe some vehicle confiscations as well

We did not. It was "proper blustery" and none of us really fancied that in the conditions Embarassed

Credit Reference agencies

Checking my credit file (as you do these days) this morning when I noticed an address on there that I didn't recognise and was in an area where I have never lived, lodged a dispute regarding the address..

Response back was priceless " We need you to provide evidence that you haven't lived at that address or that you are not connected with that address in any way, we have now closed the dispute."

Bear in mind they won't tell me when this information was lodged or by whom... pretty difficult to dispute something that's completely wrong... and with a company that won't allow you time to provide that information... Censored

Suggest to them that they read up on the burden of proof. My favourite summation:

"The burden of proof is always on the person making an assertion or proposition. Shifting the burden of proof, a special case of argumentum ad ignorantium, is the fallacy of putting the burden of proof on the person who denies or questions the assertion being made. The source of the fallacy is the assumption that something is true unless proven otherwise. "

To prove the negative (in your case that you did NOT at any time live at that address) is pretty dificult; try proving that Santa Claus does not exist...

United Kingdom 

Had similar with Experian, noticed a relative, their addresses and financial details were mixed up with my credit record Rolling Eyes reported it to Experian (I am with Clearscore but you have to report problems to Experian) and they at first said all was correct (after a month of investigation), replied to their email saying how could a credit report for one individual also list other family members!

I also reported the problem to my Bank.

After another 2 weeks got a reply apologizing and saying my credit report would be corrected, errors were caused by a similar surname (I have a double barrel surname, they don't). Sounds very improbable to me as their birthdates are nothing like mine.

Zimbabwe 2009 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Stornoway GreyDiscovery 3

Bloody COVID test for travel!
When I flew back to work in September the NHS Covid test (that was for free) was sufficient for me to fly.
Now, at the airports, they won't accept this and I have to pay £145 for an online kit that I have to administer to myself (which is exactly the same as the NHS kit!) and post it for this princely sum!
The result is the same and I wonder where all this money is going!!

England 2012 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 XS Auto Santorini BlackDiscovery 4

1) Journey home today from Liverpool. Absolutely Censored it down on M6, sheets of water running across motorway and...... they were gritting the motorway Shocked

2) Censored with no lights on at all, not even DRL’s - one in a silver knackered Passat was, literally, invisible

3) usual numpties who assume their ‘automatic lights’ means that all lights on not just their DRL’s (and those in poverty spec cars either have a dull yellow glow in headlamp bowl or tiny ‘no watt’ sidelights only)

COVID testing. Child with a temperature last night. Test at eight this morning, ten minutes from home, result (negative thank goodness) by the end of the afternoon. All done by the NHS for free.

Gives me NOTHING to complain about, at all. NOTHING!
