illegitimis nil carborundum welcomes you

A friend recently suggested I offer a service writing consumer complaint letters for people - but as I was IMing with another friend I recalled the Latin phrase about the bastards and one thing led to another and I decided that a blog had more of a chance of reaching more people and become like a class law suit [since we can't do those as easily anymore.]

And I must admit - my son has often said he is making me a tee shirt that reads: Go Ahead; Fuck With Me!

He thinks I appear as a mild mannered person and no one suspects that I will turn into "super consumer advocate" who can write zinging complaint letters at the drop of a tort - and that I do - and do it well!

I wrote one recently where I asked an accountant to either send me my signed efile permision form or refund me in full or he would be considered as having filed without consent- he did neither! He did not believe me - worse he sent me a partial refund for only the wrongly filed tax return - an admission he erred. The check he sent is on it's way back to him and a complaint will be filed with the IRS!

That's what I see for this blog - let's report the people who are taking advantage of consumers - we have to watch out for each other because the government will no longer help us...
