Re: Starting out

Hi Pixie, I did panic I thought I was going to faint , came right on to the forum asking for help which was promptly given, I'm so grateful to everyone.Can I ask how long does it take to get "brave?" you always sound so assuredxxx

That's a bit like asking how long is a piece of string, because every individual is different. In my own case I was giving the Chief Executive of Crappy One a literary bashing and reporting them to the Fobbing Off Service long before I ever heard of a consumer help website. The only time these cretins would scare me is if we ended up on the same side.

I never panic and I don't even have a sense of humour.

I find it hard to chill

In Scotland you should be chilled all the time. Mind you, it is not exactly roasting down here. I blame people who have holidays in the Southern Hemisphere who make the gods think it is natural to have winter in the middle months of the year.

Anyway, keep going Sos Ad, you're doing absolutely brilliantly.

Re: Starting out

Yes you're right Scabhunter it was a stupid question ,but I do think you have a sense of humour.

Flowerpower, as I said stupid question I know it depends on the person and probably how determined they are to see the ue route through ,which I am. I do read the other diaries and as you say they do help and reassure ,what is more reassuring is knowing I can come here and ask questions.xx

Re: Starting out

As Flowerpower says, have a look at some of the diaries and you'll soon see how soon the panic passes. You can have a look at mine but that doesn't start from the beginning as it was transferred from the other site. A good one might be New and confused - allaboutFORUMS

It's not about being brave but having the support to stand up to the bullies and see their mind games for what they are.

You can asking questions knowing that you won't be ridiculed, mocked or berated but given support x

That post sums up the entire ethos of this site.

When you post on here, you feel as though you are posting among friends. I can't believe it took me so long to find this place, when you think how long I have been posting on consumer forums. I only joined in early April!

This site has also got the best infrastructure of any consumer site I've ever seen, with the legal content secured behind a protected area. The potential to make a genuine difference in peoples' lives is virtually unlimited.

I hope I'll be able to hang around here long after my alleged debt problems are behind me.

but I do think you have a sense of humour.

You obviously haven't read my Crapbot Farcical thread!

Re: Starting out

oh I'm sure the place will need painted sooner or later scabhunter, I've taken a note, we just love volunteers!!!

seriously Sosad, just ask if you need to know anything, it's a huge amount to take on board, so it's a constantly learning situation...............

[Sosad]

Re: Starting out

I agree with you all I do feel as if I'm among friends and can ask questions I have never used any forum as much as this one ,I only wish I had followed Niddy sooner I've wasted a good two years paying and getting nowhere ,never mind you live and learn .

S H I'll get round to reading your "crapbot farcical"thread


Just received a letter from Blair, Oliver&Scot regarding my bank of Scotland card ( enforceable) stating my my debt is being prepared for further action if I don't contact. them within five days. Threats are door to door collectors and court action taken to seek a judgement against me etc what would be the best thing to do threat-o-gram letter or just ignore ?


Thanks again xxx

Re: Starting out

What has kept me sane (ish) is having people on here who can and will help and although I know some of them have wanted to pick me up and shake me (non of them are strong enough to pick me up) they have helped all the same.
