Re: Consumer TV Series on television
I liked their test of the question answering app on the latest iPhone:
Garbage In, Garbage Out.Q: What date is Easter Sunday?
A: I have no idea what date it is in eleven minus eight White City Close. How silly is that?Last edited by CleverClogs (RIP); 19 April 2012, 18:42.Comment

Re: Consumer TV Series on television
According to the spokeswallah for British Gas Service Division - apparently its Managing Director, one Chris Jansen - their engineers do not get any commission on sales of new boilers and he stood by the disingenuous clap-trap his engineers stated. Incredible!
Unless British Gas have changed their procedures in the last few years, their engineers are still paid a reward for all qualified sales leads they generate so, whilst the commission on the sale may only be paid to the box-wallah who gets themugsuckercustomer to sign on the dotted line, the engineer is rewarded for condemning old (but serviceable and safe) boilers.Comment

The Truth About Tax
Monday 14th May 2012 @ 20:30 on BBC1
Aggressive tax avoidance was branded 'morally repugnant' by the chancellor in the last budget. But what does he mean? Panorama investigates how some of the UK's most famous companies are using a tax haven at the heart of Europe to save millions in tax. Armed with a cache of secret documents, the programme reveals how global names have received big tax breaks on billion-pound transactions in the tiny country of Luxembourg. They say legal tax efficiency is good news for shareholders. In these austere times, Darragh MacIntyre asks: is big business paying its fair share?....Read more here: Panorama, The Truth About TaxI'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Beating the Recession - Cash vs Cards
Dispatches:Personal finance expert Harry Wallop investigates whether cutting up our credit cards and paying for everything in cash could leave us with more money in our pockets. Exclusive research for Channel 4 reveals how families are now realising the value of a 'return to cash', drawing out more from cash machines than at any time in the last five years. But that's not what the banks and credit card companies want us to do - so is the move towards a cashless society more about the banks' profits than the convenience of financially-stretched consumers?
