Overcoming public apathy
Are we in the UK too polite to complain?
Chatting to my mate Jeremy, he lurches off on a tirade about a company called BIP Solutions from Glasgow. They apparently promise to supply qualified lists of contacts who are placing procurement contracts.
The thing with BIP is that they seem to indulge in shady marketing and advertising ploys to get companies to unwittingly sign up for their services.
The potential customer thinks he is getting a free trial and without reading ticks the terms and conditions box. This actually commits the signer to significant expense.
But to my point, Jeremy is really but really annoyed that he has received a threat of court action if he does not settle a bill of 900.00. He consdiered settling it, just to avoid the waste of time fighting it.
Jeremy has now made a posting about BIP on www.wevet.com and has decided, after some persuasion, to put up a fight. Like the banks with their overcharging, many large firms think that they can use their apparent muscle to bully people into paying up on unjustified bills.
We are all customers, by reporting companies who try to bully us to www.wevet.com we can make life that little bit more difficult.
Compliments, and complaints are equally important. We need to know who is trustworthy and deserves support and who are the rogues.
If we don't compliment and complain, who have we to blame but ourselves when the cheats prosper and the honest guys disappear?

London is awash with men with vans
This blog is to help people avoid the hassles i had when I moved using a van and man service I found on Gumtree. Cheap removal can is attractive but here is a cautionary tale.
My own stupid fault. I was pushed for time and didn't have that much to move.
Saturday afternoon along comes this ex-post office red van with acouple of guys. Give them credit their efficiency was contrary to the first impression they gave.
Everything was treated with care. I jumped a cab and went to the new address to meet them. An hour later they had not appeared. The phone number I had went straight through to voice mail.
3 hours later I contacted the Police but without a name (other than Viktor and he was Polish I think) I had nothing to give to them in the way of information to help track them down.
The Policeman then told me I had been had in one the fastest growing scams in the capital. In the space of an hour they had loaded and disappeared with about £8k worth my worldly possessions.
2 days later i went and bought a replacement armchair. this time I went for a company who seems to be well established - Icanhire.com/manandvan. They turned up pretty well on time and charged me a reasonable price.
A week later I went shopping again to replace my plasma. This time taxivans were not available so I booked with local-taxivans.co.uk. they never turned up and I was stuck with a 42" plasma and no way of getting it home. So I took it back into the store and got picked up the following day by Icanhire who wer about 30 minutes late but at least they turned up and did'nt steal my stuff.
So the lesson I learnt was
Via Gumtree van and men very dodgy
local-taxivans.co.uk - don''t know if they are dodgy or not but they let me down
Icanhire.com/vanandman turned up and on the whole gave me good service at a reasonable price.
So send your experiences and lets get rid of the ***** who are either crooks or unreliable.
