A National Disgracel

It is right and proper that those who are owed money should receive their dues but as we have created a society that has become more and more reliant on credit and carelessness of debt, a vast and ruthless industry has evolved to cash in on those who are owed, those who owe and those who are alleged to owe. They are without scruple.

It is necessary for the reader to know that these avaricious, predatory debt acquisition and collection companies make immense and indefensible profits. They are well aware that there is no organization that will represent plaintiffs, in civil debt actions, who cannot afford to defend themselves. Accordingly, they will avoid, bend and overtly break guidelines, regulations and the law, comfortable in the knowledge that it is most unlikely that they will be held to account for their behavior. On the rare occasions when they are caught out, as in Darrell Johnson's case they will offer platitudinous excuses. The treasury profits handsomely from their rapacious activities and it is most unlikely that the present government would take any actions to protect the public from their predaceous and devious misconduct.

If you have the misfortune to have to communicate with one of these companies only do so, in writing, by recorded delivery. Never, ever, speak to them on the telephone. Aquaint yourself, intimately with the law in respect of your particular situation. Never trust anything they say without indisputable evidence.
