    Indeed. I've not had any issue with RH at all personally. He's certainly a trier and he is very funny. But what he was doing, and the way he and his staff were treating people was wrong, so although he does have a good sense of humour, it doesn't compare to what he did and the amount of stress he put so many people through. As much as he might like to argue he was in the right, he simply was not, as proven in what, 26 court cases, and by the high court in his attempt at a Judicial Review.

    Kelly has caused far less detriment to fewer consumers - and does actually provide a product and a service - but the way he talks to consumers and the way he handles complaints and critisicm earns him zero respect at all.

            Blimey when Tools rang me to tell me I thought he meant a new Director called George Orwell, not that RH had actually CHANGED HIS NAME to George Orwell. How very 1984.

              From ASA re the new stuff on his website:

              Thanks for the information, I had not seen this page before. I wouldn’t be able to share information about who we had or had not received complaints from, but looking on our system I can’t find a record of us having investigated (or currently investigating) anything related to the HMPO website.

              Regarding the telephone poll, whilst this appears to be pretty poor research practise it doesn’t appear to be misleading in itself as it gives information about the different call costs, unless I have missed something. In addition, given the ongoing legal situation with the company (there is to be an oral hearing of their appeal of the refusal of Cranston J to grant permission to pursue proceedings for a JR) the ASA would need to consider whether pursuing a complaint against the website would be appropriate.

                  Dear All,

                  Due to a completely new change in direction regarding my career, I left off this story just prior to HOWARD being locked up. I cannot find any further on it, and wondered if there had been an update, as I saw his pathetic website is still up and running. As I promised right at the very start, I wasn't going to let go until I got my money returned! Now I have fully settled into my new career, I am back on his case. I would be glad to hear how everyone got on in the end. I imagine that I'll have a separate fight on my hands to get my refund though. Oh well, onwards and upwards. Kind regards. Mark

                    Most people had been facing court claims for cancelled/non-payment. Of the 20 odd cases Howard lost every one. We've not had many like yourself who have paid and need refunding. Have you actually filed a formal complaint?
