Charities

[wendy]

Well would you believe it, I just had 3 men from Battersea Dogs Homes trying to collect money from my door.
I thought the charities had stopped all this hard sell of begging.
I think I will report them to Norfolk CC

[maureenho]

As far as I know they shouldn't be door knocking and they may not even been from there, I would report it.

[wendy]

Apparently they are doing nothing wrong legally and nothing can be done to stop them doing this.
It was a complete waste of time me phoning Norfolk CC because the call went through to CAB who take the calls for them.

[maureenho]

That was a waste of time then.

[Rosalind]

No one should be allowed to cold call, anymore.

[wendy]

They have only just finished.
Back and forth by my house all day.
I have found it abit scary.

[Rosalind]

That is frightening Wendy,thinking of you.

[Honey]

The people doing this are trying to earn a living but its not right.

Police warn residents not to give out bank details to charity door-knockers due to visit Stoke-on-Trent in January

and yet when I phoned our council this week, they were not interested.

No one gets a penny out of me on the doorstep or in the street.

I think it is awful coming to your home. I find the christian aid people quite intimidating when they come for envelops. You feel very obliged
