Cyber Bills

It really does get very frightening. “Watchdog” this week did a feature on how telephone companies are switching people to new providers without their knowledge or permission. “GMTV” today did a feature on how people are getting rogue bills with huge amounts on which they can’t possibly owe and how the bailiffs are then being sent in.
What makes all of this even scarier is that you then have to spend time and trouble getting through to these people. Unless you are assertive, you get a machine followed by a powerless human being. You do have to use your wits to speak to someone in authority.
And the scariest thing of all is not having the time to do it.
Perhaps we shouldn’t have. Aren’t there many things in life much more important that all of this?
