Dear First Direct,
Ref: Sar Request under s.7 Data Protection Act 1998
I write with dismay at your clear lack of intelligence when considering your customers needs and thus must warn you that failure to respond in accordance with your rights as a Data Controller will result in my formalising a complaint to the relevant regulatory bodies, namely the ICO & the FOS.
I do not have to complete any template in order for you to fulfil my lawful request, something which the ICO confirm within their own guidelines; I quote from this guidance:
DPA1998 Guidance Notes for Organisations (Refer Principle 6)
Yours faithfully,

Can I require individuals to use a specially designed form when making subject access requests?
No. Many organisations produce subject access request forms, and you may invite individuals to use such a form as long as you make it clear that this is not compulsory and you do not try to use this as a way of extending the 40-day time limit for responding. Standard forms can make it easier for you to recognise a subject access request and make it easier for the individual to include all the details you might need to locate the information they want.
However, any request in writing must be considered as a valid request, whatever the format.
As you can clearly see from the above, your 40 days are still ticking and I expect an immediate response from you with a suitable offer of compensation for your most misleading and quite unlawful request to complete a template.No. Many organisations produce subject access request forms, and you may invite individuals to use such a form as long as you make it clear that this is not compulsory and you do not try to use this as a way of extending the 40-day time limit for responding.
