Tricky one that. If you paid me for a seat, and I'd booked but didn't pay the coach firm, I don't think the coach firm is under any obligation to refund you directly or provide you with the service. There's obviously an element of trust here, and in fairness to James he seems to have run a lot...

Absolutely, and in fairness mate I'd totally agree that in any other circumstance you and d&c are spot on in that the company shouldn't be giving out the info to a third-party without permission. But I think because it's been self-published this would be a hard one to get a judgement on. I'm...

The first thing is that James made it public himself (possibly with incorrect figures). I think that negates any breach under GDPR - the information had been made publicly available by the person involved. If I'd written to the boat company and said something along the lines of, I booked a...

Via the accounts would be the usual way. The taxman doesn't generally pop around to count the cash or look at the cheques himself. ;) Plenty of businesses use direct bank transfers to accept payments. fwiw.

Maybe you should have listened more: :) Section 4: Notification of data breaches under the GDPR – 10 Frequently Asked Questions | Cleary Cybersecurity and Privacy Watch

That's fair enough d&c, it's certainly the grown-up approach. Fwiw though this is related to what I do for a living and I think I've got a reasonable handle on it. Regardless, the bigger issue is the bloke being hounded and threatened on hearsay and what-ifs. Like you, I'm not comfortable with...

Politely, I think you're wrong on the DPA bit. This isn't personal information; it's not his card balance, his address, date of birth, or anything else that could be classed as personal in that sense; it's specific information about a commercial transaction which has already been offered...

Are people really dumb enough to threaten violence against the bloke on a public forum, based on what can only be an incomplete knowledge of the facts - that's ridiculous to my mind. If there's an allegation of a genuine fraud here then the proper place to resolve it is in the courts. If it's...

Sounds like it's all over, but I reckon SISU might still fancy their chances of taking it to penalties...

Not until they've worked through all of the fans. One at a time. Have you not had your summons through yet?

I'm Ron Burgundy? Sorry, too much time on my hands today. :)

"Oh, oh" or "Uh oh"? There is a subtle but important difference. :)

Even then though, can't see how it would be a criminal matter unless the wearer was asked to leave or cover it up and refused to. Akin to the 'wearing a loud shirt in a built up area' offence, funny, but not strictly true.

We're not signing Messi. That's it, final straw, I'm out. ;) (Dean Gordon, eh, I'd totally forgotten about him. Left back wasn't he? Not too bad as I recall, though left-back at City is broadly equivalent to the Defence Against Dark Arts post at Hogwarts, seldom ends well for the holder.)

Criminal lawyer my arse. I don't believe there's any law against wearing whatever shirt you want, wherever you want. There might be ground regulations but there's no way this is a criminal matter. The fans involved in the conflict (from both sides) should take responsibility for their own...

In which case fair play to the bloke. I'll have to try the "Get 30,000 People to Absoultely Hate You" diet, clearly gets results and has to be easier than Atkins. On that note, did I mention that I love SISU? :)

Regardless of all of the SISU arseholery, and everything else that has gone on at the club, I still wouldn't wish illness on the bloke. It could just that he's been caught in a bad day, but no one can be a lightning rod for ever without taking some damage - and I think that's what he's been as...

That was a fantastic save by Burge... this is some game now!

No. This can't be true. I clearly remember that Councillors lined up to tell us that Wasps were going to build their training base in Coventry. One of the added benefits of having them here. Surely no one involved in this deal would've been lying to us? Italia, Italia, wherefore are thou...

I must confess that at least in part I do feel sorry for the driver. He's got dementia and reading between the lines he's had problems for a while. He didn't have to keep putting himself forward for work, but who knows how much of it was down to his illness. One of the symptoms I've seen in...
