Rip Off Britain

Hi there, I am a researcher for a new series of BBC1's Rip Off Britain (with Gloria Hunniford, Angela Rippon and Jennie Bond) and I am looking for people to get in touch and tell me about problems they have had with companies/services. I am looking in particular for people who are not camera shy and who have the paperwork/evidence to back up their claim.

Problems I am looking into at the moment include:
Water bills
Funeral costs
Utility bills
The cost of directory inquiry eg 188 phone numbers
Problems with online supermarket deliveries (food close to sell-by date etc)
Weekly payment stores eg BrighHouse - APR and service cover costs
Private Medical Insurance
People who have bought "HD Ready" TVs without realising they will need to buy extra equipment to actually get HD.
Insurance
Banks
Car problems…
And many more.
If you could pass this email round your members that would be great. They can reply to the email with their phone numbers and I will get in touch, or I can be contacted on 0161 2443976.

Many thanks
Katie Cooksey
