    The US has the better business bureau, what does the UK have?

    Is there a UK version of the US's better business bureau? Where can I file complaints about UK businesses? I have the VAT number if it helps.

          Not really anything equivalent brizzard - they would not give a shit anyways.
          But if the issue is about debts or money owed - sue em. Claims under 10K UK pounds (about $18K) can be handled by a County Court and costs little money (and no massive lawyers fees).

          There is also a nice clause in the Companies Act where you automatically get an order to remove assets to match any debts without further discussion. (Only ever used that once and was a very large company - arrived with a bailiff and gave em 10 mins to pay - else the office reception furniture gets removed first. They paid.)

              You ever dealt with them Lee? Sheesh... it's like dealing with a brick wall

              Story! You have to be familiar with these bits of plastic called "sex dolls"?
              Anyways... there was a press ad offering this crap and claiming vital stats of
              36-24-36 blah. Of course the stats depended on how much ya blow the shit up.

              Along came two reps from OFT to check the dimensions of a blow up doll and they reckoned it had a 34 bust (I never asked em the cup size). I asked them - now don't you think, despite you consider her bust to be only 34" that she is one damned hottie anyways? And... if ya just blow some fucking air into her she can be really busty - that is, if you like playing with big plastic tits.

              They gave up and made plans to get some lunch someplace and left. I seriously doubt OFT would be of any relevance unless there was some major fraud or real cause for a product or service causing personal injury.
