Re: Credit Card Debt
I wonder if what they do can be deemed as illegal. Surely by claiming someone owes money when in fact they dont and demanding that they pay is against the law.

Re: Credit Card Debt
Not many people know the law though. They just pay up to make the debt collector go away. Agreed it is a very grey area.

Credit Card Debt
[QUOTE=rockitman;6282697]You are completely correct honesty is the best policy. Thanks!
Not everyone is completely honest though are they. Ermmmmh as we are so caught up on the use of the English language is there supposed to be a ? mark here? If it is supposed to be a question I do not know.
As I've just posted on the immigration board I've run several businesses in my life and never not paid a bill or person, Good for you! and one of those businesses didn't turn a profit in 3 years. Not totally sure what this sentence actually means, help me out here........
There have been plenty of people who haven't paid me though. Ahhha.....so you have not made a profit but a loss.........
I don't want to get off on the wrong foot here (LOL) Think you may have already (LOL) and have everyone think I am a thief. Jury may be out on that one............I'm not. Good for you, some clarity........ Although you don't know it I'm sure my reputation, both personal & business is exceptional.Your(sic) right I don't know it.

Brilliant. How pathetic. You criticise my English and then resort to what can only be described as a very poor insult. That doesn't make you look too bright does it?
If your (LOL) going to insult me at least be imaginative about it.

Loads of theads on this. Usually posted by passing trolls.
Correct
Think you'll find it's against the law to plan to rob companies, Correctas you've more or less admitted that is your intention. Need police checks etc for visa so hopefully they'll catch you sooner rather than later and your visa entitlement will be gone as Aus doesn't want any more UK convicts correct

Thanks to those who actually answered the question for me. I am currently in a OK position financially, but like most people I could do with a few extra dollars in the bank... Hmmmmmmmm
I was actually more interested in:
<Edit>
The reason I ask this is a few years ago my best friend took out some loans / credit cards before he went out on a working holiday visa and he got away with it. He was advising me to do it this time as he rung them and told them where he was living and got them to call him there to verify it but they didn’t chase the debt and this was with a multinational (HSBC).
For those who took the p*ss, yet another message board clique is it? No mate.......it's called honesty First post and you've already got some tools (surprisingly senior members and a moderator) making “in” jokes. Nice way to welcome people to the board. Nice way to introduce yourself.
Oh, and for your information Australia_bound? I think you’ll find pity is spelt with a single “t”. Best sharpen up your English skills or you won’t going anywhere champ.

2. Yes, always (assuming I notice).
The difference between 1 and 2 is in intention and honesty. Intending to steal or defraud says a lot about a person's integrity, trustworthiness and conscience. I value mine at more than a few grand. Hence I'm still paying my UK debt off and living without luxuries.
