The rip off

Why does the Government let so many companies rip us off?

As I get older my time each day seems to be shorter and shorter, yet I have to spend time correcting mistakes with the electricity company, gas company, banks, the local main dealer for my car that made a mistake, if you add all these up and then add all the things you have to do at work it becomes maddening.

Why can’t we have a fair trade policy, why should we be on a more expensive tariff whilst there is a cheaper one, that we HAVE to ask for, why can’t companies be forced to simply put all of us on the lower tariff?

Why do banks and other organisations charge more to people who have less money?

Why are companies allowed to use premium rate numbers when we need to call them as our supplier?

Taking on Bad Service

What happens when the insurance pays for a job by a main dealer and the main dealer ruin your vehicle. In law the contract is with the insurance company and the main dealer, which cuts you out of the equation, is this right.

Music Festivals

Why is there always a burger van! There are so many excellent small busineses that provide above average food, but they never get to be seen? The reason is us, again, it's like this, caterers have to pay thousands of pounds to attend events because you bought a ticket, like thousands of others, so the organisers know your skint and cannot afford good food, so they sell the burger position for thousands of pounds to make sure you can still afford to buy cheap rubbish whilst in their care.

Close a company

People do not realise how powerful we really are as a group. lets say we decided to close down a major company we disliked for whatever reason being they are rude to our planet or abusive to our wallet can this be done?

If as a group we decided to close down a credit card company how could we do this, simple if all their customers stopped paying they would meltdown very very quickly and after about three months would not be able to even support the numerous letters let alone instruct solicitors. but would our Government bail them out with your money.

Banks

So the bank messed up by being to greedy, haha may i share a thought.

1. If you ask for your fees back for the past 6 years, the banks they say no, because the case is still being heard and resolved, except what they forget to tell you is if you are in hardship they have to repay, well simply open a second account with a new bank and let your account go into overdraft, then tell your bank your in hardship, they will repay quickly. this took my 5 months of numerous calls FROM them, hundreds of letters, but finally they got the point and it got resolved. they repaid me a fortune (well in my little world anyway)

Taxes

I often wonder! When i manage to collect a pound for myself to spend on food, accomodation and bills, how much of it did the government actually take. by this i don't me just my wage tax, but the VAT, the business rates, the compnaies taxes and obviously the staff wage tax, and thats before i really research how many taxes are applied before i get my one pound!

Shopping

Whilst i do understand shops need to make a profit, why is it not reasonable to just make a fair profit! when it comes to the sales they seem to offer over 50% off and still make a profit, is this our fault for buying at the inflated prices.
