ALAN BATES VS THE POST OFFICE

Thomas from Kilbirnie

Did you watch the episodes?
What are the lessons to be learned from this tragedy?
One thing that struck me was that each postmaster/postmistress was told: " You are the ONLY ONE having a problem," and everyone believed it.

It was only years later, Alan Bates was forced to organize a group!

And then the "Sunday" program dropped the bombshell from an expert about the security systems in NZ Banks and the UK. She said, the contrast between the two systems is like night and day !!

Are the banks taking advantage of us customers who have no common voice?
