The unusual site banners are to bring attention to the fact that Labour activists in Bexley are manipulating Facebook Groups with fictional posters. They deny it, threaten police action for ‘harassing’ a fictitious character and then demonstrate their willingness to impersonate by creating a false Administrator account in my name. The banner on display is chosen randomly from a selection of three, with a fourth bearing the familiar Bexley Council is Bonkers logo.
30 June - Money back at the third attempt
I
suppose I should quickly update the situation on the Metro Bank ATM which on 30th May took back
my £50 because I do not have eyeballs in my kneecaps. One might have thought
that a credit would be automatic but no.
On 3rd June I phoned my bank, First Direct, and they said that I would be sent a
claim form and given a provisional refund within five days.
Two weeks later I called again and was told that unfortunately nothing at all
had been done following my earlier call and this would be urgently remedied. Once again nothing happened.
On 23rd June a third phone call
elicited another apology, an admission that no action was taken following my
report but on the following day the £50 was credited to my account.
Why should an account holder have to make a single claim let alone three? The
procedure should be totally automated. No money should result in an automatic refund.
Anything else suggest that banks have a vested interest in dishonesty.
