    My SAR has been sent this morning, not that I expect to receive anything other than that which has already been received by others in this Forum.
    We shall see......

      They have been doing so for years though and it's got nowhere. When a new wave of attack arrises that is different from the initial instruction, they then need to bill you for more money...

        Once you get a response, please let Dan Niedle know that your SAR got rejected, and you aren't the only one, and they are sending out blanket rejections to everyone.

          I'm with you on this. I see no evidence of Elysium "going after them aggressively". It is actually in their interests to string this out as long as possible and pull in more clients and cash to fund them to do ........ what exactly? Why did it take another new dodgy attack from West 28 before Elysium once again reactively came to the party?

          In my opinion, Dan Neidle's proactive and free(!) intervention has had much more impact than any group action / activity previously. It would just be good to hear more about how that's going, and if Dan has yet had any response from either Trethowans or W28.

            There are 2 things we currently know

            1) Dan is doing something
            2) everyone else has gone quiet.

            One thing I do know is that no law firm such as Trethowans will want their name attached in the mind of the general public to money grabbing by failed tax avoidance schemes. And that’s before their inability to understand the CCA is mentioned
            merely at clientco for the entertainment

              Two of my friends who are with Elyseum mentioned just a few days ago that they feel they are none the better for going with Elyseum than those that didn't, and are now considering their situation.

                And this is the exact problem. They took a shed load of money from everyone to fight this regularisling of the loans with the FCA...yet several of us made phone calls to the FCA and have put an end to that happening. That was all done for free....

                  I think they were capable of dealing with this quite easily. But like many other companies, they just got greedy. They will now be remembered for presiding over this mess.

                    Of course they are capable. But my argument has always been the approach to this should have been far simpler. Having spoken to a few people (Solicitors, Accountants) who know of this issue, they have said the approach should be to respond disputing the debt and politely telling them to bleep off.

                    Why didn't Elysium argue these are statute barred? They dodged my question when around this when I made this point.

                    The guidance from the Citizens advice bureau was they have no chance with this one if they are deemed loans as they are statute barred. Good luck to Trethowans with that one. They think they are going to change the rules, laws, regulations etc...

                      Because that approach doesn't generate a lot of £££.

                      It's like a motor mechanic making a meal of a straightforward job so that he can charge more.
