Having finally eascaped from Beruit to a lovelly cottage in a
delightful village, I've had the wonderous delights of dealing with
call centre's for changing addresses. The best so far has been NLT,
who were so good at answering the phone that they got dumped and
they will *never* blacken my doorstep again. Finaly, all done.
But no! We have changed the TV licence over, but after 2 weeks
we get the standard threatening letter to "The Occupier" threatening
court action. Ringing the number provided resulted in a total of
22 minutes of awful music. After the move, I've got so peed off with
this sort of nonsense that I've come up witha new tactic which I shall
apply from now on. I will ring twice, on two days, and hold the line
for 3 mins on each occasion. If I don't get through, they get one
of these.....

Dear Mr McTaggart,
thank you for your undated letter regarding the TV Licence
at the above address. I have, as requested, rung the telephone
number provided, 0870 2419049, and have so far held the line for a
total of 22 minutes.
I presume as there is no urgency on your part to answer
the telephone that the matter is unimportant and I have therefore
given up trying. If you could give me a time (out of work hours,
since I am self-employed and charge £25.00 + VAT per hour for my time),
in writing, when someone feels able to deal with the matter I would
be delighted to hear from you.
**********************************
I just wish I had the time to set up a web site to provide info
on how to deal with these morons and get this nonsense stopped. I
really don't see it being my problem if they can't be bothered to
have sufficient staff available to deal with customers, if we
could just everyone to respond as above, their stupid systems
would become untennable, and they'd *have* to do something.
Feeling much better now!
