The mother of a missing chef says she has still not had an apology from the BBC after letters were sent demanding TV licence payments from her daughter - 14 years after she mysteriously disappeared.
Claudia Lawrence disappeared from York on 18 March, 2009, prompting the biggest and most complex missing person inquiry in the history of North Yorkshire Police.
Her mother, Joan Lawrence, has said letters were being sent to her daughter's cottage for her TV licence fee, with one recently even threatening court action and a £1,000 fine.
TV Licensing is mostly contracted out to, guess who?
Capita.

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank could just be the start of “a “slow rolling crisis” in the US financial system with “more seizures and shutdowns coming”, the chief executive of the world’s largest asset manager has warned.
The CEO of BlackRock, Larry Fink, also predicted in a letter to investors and company bosses that inflation would persist and rates continue to rise, trends that both contributed to SVB’s collapse.
I see Credit Suisse is expected to go under with it's main investor saying it's had enough.

Evidently it is beyond the ability of the BBC to prevent either itself or contractors from sending such letters.
Fuck the BBC

When you contract out a service you do so to avoid the overhead of running that service. Direct your ir(i)e at Capita. As my old man would have said; 'I don't keep a dog and bark myself'.

Expect Credit Suisse to be bailed out by the SNB.
But the real danger is the risk of contagion to other European banks that trade with Credit Suisse.

You know it wasn't the BBC. It was a random computer that's been given duff information
It wasn't a BBC exec sitting there writing letters saying "right we'll get this fucker to reply "
For the last 14 years?
It only needed to be not given the information once. If it didn't know the person was dead, it didn't know.
Capita are masters of losing data. I wouldn't be surprised if the BBC have been saying 'Get it sorted!' ever since the problem was raised.
“With thousands of GPs’ pension records missing data, the handling of pensions administration nearly seven years on from Capita winning the contract continues to be appalling, with GPs unable to access accurate information about their pension records,”

It only needed to be given the correct information just once in the last 14 years.
If it didn't know the person was dead, it didn't know.
Err ???
You've clearly never heard of GIGO - Garbage In, Garbage Out. If the input data is wrong the computer will always work on the basis of that (faulty) data.

CA Governor Benito Newsolini is in this up to his ears. All sorts of of stuff coming out & he's caught lying worse than Biden
Shook down the bank to give $100k to his wife's *charity*
Had this personal & business accounts with them for years, President of SVB Capital is on the BoD of his wife's charity.
Now claiming it's "all in a blind trust".. oh yeah motherfucker? You don't know where your fucking paycheck is deposited??
& a list of his *behests" came out...These are payments he wants other people/business to make to various places that aren't reportable, but can't exceed $100K... & the total is at least $23.7Million.

Have Banks been allowed to grow too big? The consequences when they fail tend to be catastrophic, and global in scale. They have repeatedly proved themselves very far from infallible.
I have no doubt that little banks fail too, but at least the effects are limited and contagion is not a major issue.

No but they have too much control over governmental policies/decisions and that control is in too few hands.
I am sure all those people who lost everything with SVB will be comforted by the fact that SVB made massive donations to BLM - during the riots...
The Biden admin is promising to guarantee uninsured losses. Even a financial ignoramus like me can see that flies in the face of capitalism. Lots of Democrat supporters want their money back after woke ideology failed to make a profit (that's my take on these failed banks, typically also ESG supporters).

Macron invokes nuclear option to force through his pensions reform in huge political setback
French President Emmanuel Macron will bypass parliament to get his flagship reform over the line, risking backlash from politicians and protesters that threatens to wreck his leadership, in what is seen as a defeat for the president.
