The message
from "Keith \(Dorset\)" contains these words: Is it just 'forum trolling' by the proprietor's teenage offspring? Or possibly someone trying to get Timpsons into trouble. Damned silly anyhow. I'd like to believe that a big company wouldn't do anything so crass - but these days with the sort of infantile marketing we get now who knows. Took me ages to find out what a "side by side food centre" is. Apparently it's a big fridge. -- Skipweasel Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. |

Personally I hated Timpson before this. Somehow or other they have established a virtual monopoly in most towns in the UK for shoe repairs and key cutting. One of the clearest signs of this abuse is the fact that you won't see any price list displayed in their shops. Two new heals for a pair of mens shoes is over £10 ISTR. Parts must cost about 50p max. Not bad profit for a 5 minute job! And don't get me started on how much they charge for key cutting...Rip off. |

Google does not regularly monitor or censor postings sent to Google Groups, but we do try to prevent wide-scale spam and other forms of Usenet abuse. Please be assured that the information you sent to us is being collected and taken into account. While we understand how annoying off-topic posts can be, we aren't able to pursue most complaints we receive about them. We are using the information you provide to make large-scale improvements in preventing abuse. We appreciate your help in our efforts to increase the quality of Google Groups. Replies to this email address will not be received. If you have a general Google Groups question or wish to report a post that you suspect is illegal, please visit our Help Center at http://groups-beta.google.com/support Regards, The Google Team" If it helps anyone, where a user is sending crap through google groups I generally find it more effective to send an abuse report straight to the sender's ISP. The ISP can be found from the NNTP posting host line in the header of the post by pasting it into one of the many WHOIS tools on the internet. Most will have an abuse@ address listed there but NTL do not, their abuse reports have to go through the web form I quoted earlier: http://bbplus.ntlworld.com/NetReport/index.php -- fred Plusnet - I hope you like vanilla |
