Money? What’s That?

May 23rd, 2007

Had another set back yesterday on my mission to vacate my current accommodation, seems Abbey (bank) have forgotten an agreement we made on settling an account and handed it over to some quite blood thirsty debt collection agent! I am not very tactful when I have some Twatty Oik telephoning me and demanding a ridiculous sum of money there and then, especially when they lie to you about your rights, tell you it’s pointless contacting Abbey as it’s now in the hands of the collection agents. They told me my account had been closed, so I asked them where all the money I have been paying (as agreed) has been going and they then tell me I need to contact Abbey (huh! did you not just tell me contacting them was pointless?) and in the meantime pay the outstanding sum in full,Yeah Right! Oh and interestingly when I mentioned to them that a lump of the sum was bank charges of which I am going to be disputing, they decided to let me know Abbey had agreed that if I payed the amount off in total, they would waive 440 pounds!

Anyway enough moaning, bought a new radio, Yaesu FT-2800M, seems pretty good, will be putting it in the motor over the weekend, I have an antenna just need the mount which I’ll be ordering online tonight.

That’s about it, I’m off to put my head through a mincer.
