A national day of anti DCA action!

mr.ton · 3rd June 2009, 14:53

I am starting this thread with the hope of building up a consensus of as many people as possible, were by we all agree on a national day of action against the DCA autolinker.com autolinking image

's.
What i mean by this is....say for example, we all agree that on Wednesday 24th June, everyone of us would contact the OFT & any other official authority we can think of to complain about DCA's.
If enough people did such a thing on a specific day, then it might have an effect & something might happen as a result?
I personally am sick of them now & especially after my war of words with BCW last week

The DCA's do seem to be getting more arrogant,rude & downright nasty in recent times - maybe thats a side effect of the recession etc...who knows?
Anyway..i could be whistling in the wind with this idea, but even still..i thought id bring the idea up to get the initial feedback etc...
Something needs to be done & Caggers need to join forces & agree/plan a day of direct action (nothing vigilante/violent or anything of the such) like what ive mentioned above.

Swamping the DCA autolinker.com autolinking image

's with formal complaint letters all at once should tie up some admin autolinker.com autolinking image

staff

I think you should include MP's in that group.

Most of them at the moment would sell their duck island house if they thought it might get your vote, so a steady but significant increase in DCA complaints might actually spur them on - especially if you mention the fact that certain high profile people are/were on the Board of the company that invests in a very discredited DCA recently mentioned on Watchdog and slapped by the OFT.........

lol blond but yep im in to worth the paper and ink PF

mr.ton · 3rd June 2009, 20:14

OK...so if for example we all agree to do it on Wednesday 24th June, it gives us all time to publicise it more etc...
The way it works is...each one of us rings the OFT to complain about whichever specific DCA autolinker.com autolinking image

we have in our lives right now causing hastle etc..
If enough of us do this, then perhaps something may happen/be done?

Big Boss Man · 3rd June 2009, 20:23

Great idea, whens the date etc ?

mr.ton · 3rd June 2009, 20:39

Well ive floated the date of Wednesday June 24th to see what people think & to give enough time to publicise it etc...

mr.ton · 3rd June 2009, 20:41

Correction all....the Wednesday that week is 24th not 25th..ive edited my post to reflect that.....sorry lol

kiptower · 3rd June 2009, 20:45

fantastic IDEA ,, and how soon can we do this for the PPC's

mr.ton · 3rd June 2009, 20:55

Well i think this Wednesday 24th June date ive suggested should be our "day of action" for all included.....
It needs to publicised as much as possible so the more people do it & the more of an effect it will have hopefully?
Its a middle of the week day as well, thats why i specifically chose Wednesday.
