Re: A guide to self managed DMP's - going it alone
Hi
Absolutely right labman.
The OFT and everybody else should be screaming this off the rooftops, including those that have it in their own business plans etc, if not then what is the point of it & them all, and how can you believe anything they say?
I understand there is also consultation going on between a goverment department and reps of the fee charging companies about a proposed DMP protocol sort of thing that may be wrapped up later in the year - universal expenditure trigger figures should feature somewhere in all this you would hope.
PS - I dont think there was ever any real problem between us labman

Totally agree LKK - there's a first on open forum! 
The problem then comes, as I'm sure I don't need to poit out to you, but it needs pointing out to other organisations, that they then say these are just 'guidelines' and not law. In the same way they say the same about being subscribed to the Lending Code.
It looks good on their literature to say it; it's great free advertising for them and shows how much they care about their customers......................................... .................................................. .................................................. .......................
until those customers get into trouble, then they're guidelines!
Call me cynical, fine, but I have good reason to be.
