They asked for it back : (.

Well WTC caught up with me - they want the money back. Darn. I was looking after it so nicely. And they sent a complicated letter that means that somehow I owe them even more money than that back. Well, how much will I miss all this when it stops - we are practically family now - could've set up a fab wee investment agreement. A kind of I can guard your cash if you like agreeement.

Yes, they always do that - it is never, "Sorry, we are total asses and thanks for TRYING to tell us and do the right thing but we were such a horses behind that we can't tell how to do our basic job, and thus we instead pretend that every person we accidentally give money to is evil becuase that way we can avoid feeling like we are incompetent morons. And because WE did this to YOU, we are going to add on a bunch of stuff that makes it look like you MADE us give it to you deliberately."

Ahh, see, this is when I actually try the 'left field' approach. I appeal on the basis of discrimination for (go for something a little off here - I recommend orientation, but you can use female, Anglican, etc) - ahhh linda walked in and you got to the Citizens advice bureau for help with the Equal Opportunities Commission cases - okay back to this one - you appeal not to have it review, but appeal that THESE people who sent you the letter are discriminating so it goes to another department and you get to show up - as the whole point is NOT for them to prove they put thousands in your account and then took it out becuase you are a woman, or a Athiest but you want them to show up so you can, or the adjudicator can ask some basic questions like, Do you do this to all men too, fine them for your mistakes or is it just women? See, you need to get them to PROVE that they treat others WORSE than you DELIBERATELY - which they won't do, so it usually gets you out of it - unless you are getting your doctor's review in which case, forget it, those guys are hired on humorlessness - I asked one doctor who was reviewing my three inch file (didn't have, had never seen) who demanded I explain it in "four minutes" - I asked for his medical license. He goggled. I said, "I had to show a passport to PROVE I was not a cheat and a liar. Now, I would like to extend the same values to you - can YOU prove you aren't a cheat and a liar, and you really ARE a doctor, not just someone pretending to be one." - for some reason things went downhill from there. They did offer me the allotted money to go home, which was, as I was two blocks away: 2/3rds of a pence. I said they could keep that for the next client they 'help'.
