Re: Marlin being taken to Court

That was a great video, and as others have said, well worth watching. Loved the way he ran rings around Denise...

Looking forward to finding out how it all goes next month. I hope he whacks some arse as well!

Re: Marlin being taken to Court

The interesting thing is he is right on it possible for individuals to be prosecuted under money laundering regulations. Unfortunately I've had to learn all the legislation as part of my job so know it quite well!

Poor Denise though, like most employees of banks and financial organizations have probably just paid it lip service and thought 'it could never happen to me'.

Now she has an individual who may, just may, have a slim chance of getting a private prosecution, and if Marlin WERE telling porkies about the assignment (possible), and Denise know this, she knows there is a tiny chance she could be indicted.

Its all possibles, and maybes, but its great that for once she will be experiencing the stress that thousands of people feel when they get those letters from Marlin.

'Sent in error' my arse.

Its a pity that Southend is a 4 hour drive otherwise I'd go along just to meet the guy and see how he gets on!

Marlin like all the financial sector prey on ignorance of the law, on this occasion the guy knows the law well better in fact than many in the financial sector itself.

I have a feeling that marlin will go along with this until the very end trying to pull his bluff then settle out of court because to be honest no company would want this before a judge.

Re: Marlin being taken to Court

Just watched the video, it makes for very interesting viewing. He is right on the money laundering point but the rest of it I haven't got a clue.

It would be interesting if Paul ever has a chance to watch it and to get his feed back on the assignment issue and if a credit agreement is actually currency and if you do own it?????

My view is though a district judge wont want to get involved in this and will either kick it out or refer it.

Re: Marlin being taken to Court

It will be very interesting if Paul comments on it, also it will be interesting to see what Marlin sends me after my prove it letter.

Re: Marlin being taken to Court

Don't read too much into that clip. Wait till after the case.

We don't go for criminal law. We deal with civil matters in AAD.

Re: Marlin being taken to Court

I just liked it on the basis that it turned the tables on the DCA concerned. From the tone of the womans voice on the end of the phone at Marlins she sounded like she was almost in tears.

Now if shes an admin bod in a complaints department employed on minimum wage and expects her employer to look after her interests then I feel a little (but not much) sorry for her.

However if she is when of Marlins threat monkeys, whose day job it is to phone people and make them feel shite about themselves then I'm doubly pleased that on this occasion she got a taste of her own medicine.

I hold the blokes chances as slim, however, and this is what the DCA's have to realize, is that when you start pushing peoples backs up against the wall, making threats, getting CCJ,s charging orders etc, then people are going to start fighting back. Sooner or later these companies are going to come up against some real smart cookies (you only have to look at this site!), and they are going to get bitten in the behind big time.

So although I think its highly unlikely he will get a sympathetic or tolerable judge and chances are he'll get swatted out of court, I really do hope he is actually onto something and at the very least generate some very bad publicity for MBNA and Marlin. If he is close to any sort of truth then I think its likely they won't want to open a tin of worms and will reverse the charging order (which is what it seems is all he wants).

We'll find out next month!

Thanks as always
