    Re: Marlin being taken to Court

    Very interesting video.

    Especially as Marlin have recently contacted me saying they have been assigned my account and I am awaiting a reply to my prove it letter at this very moment.

    Not sure how far his action will go BUT I like his style!!

    Go get them!!

    If they knew that they would be liable for a personal criminal prosecution if they used smoke and mirrors and there was case law for success then the behaviour would be modified out of all recognition.

    The muppet who signs all the template letters. Do they even exist? Would a director be so keen to be extracting money without checking how they doing it if they knew that anyone of these claims could land them up doing porridge.

    I doubt it. We on a place like here know how much of the industry is bluff. Take the bluff away and what would you have?

    Certainly no DCA industry because the bank would be able to collect on any correct debt. That the industry exists at all tends to leave you with the notion its all a con.


    Like the old HSBC Ms Pankhurst was the name they use to use(non human script)?

    If this goes to court and succeeds, would it become the precedent that could be used for Civil Court claims? There is nothing civil about a court claim.

    Indeed sorry Riz you will have to set the time when you have a free 40 mins to watch it all as it does not do it justice to watch parts off m8.

    Good luck to the guy. All the same names as we have the barstewards.

    Its about time this whole industry started to get it personal in the neck. Perhaps then some people would not be so happy to make the threats they do.

    I for one would be happy to start asking for these notes from these paracites. Anything to break this con that the DCA is allowed to chase the full amount. If its sold for pennies then thats what we should pay.

    Not some grossly inflated total that the bank went hell for leather to obtain when they realised the account was going wrong.
