Final Tracklist!
Posted by BustaC Mon, 09 Jan 2006 07:47:00 GMT
Finally got round to sitting down long enough to work out the track listing for the dark jungle mix. It took a while since I had to go through all my records to work out what track was what.
More Tracklists
Posted by BustaC Wed, 21 Dec 2005 00:33:00 GMT
Got a few more of the old track lists done.
Just one more to go, but that's going to be tricky as I've lost my CD master with the track info on it.
Anyway, here are the others

I finally got round to sorting out a tracklist for this mix, since people had asked for it.
Data protection act request - The reply
Posted by BustaC Sat, 17 Dec 2005 23:41:00 GMT
Had an email today in response to my last one asking for the other info they hold on our complaint / claim. Not exactly the details I hoped for.
I may be wrong in my interpretation of the Data Protection Act but from what I can see, this would be classed as "personal information".
Anyway, here is the reply we got.
To Us
Dear Mr Jones
As you are aware I made no notes but my recollection of last Friday’s conversation, when I spoke to you from Steve Fanning’s office at Britannia’s head office in Croydon, was that we discussed the status of your claim you advised me that it had been sent to the insurers, to date I have received no correspondence from them but as promised will assist them in every way that I can in making a speedy settlement.
You insinuated that the cricket comment on the Britannia wrapping paper protecting your double bed mattress amounted to criminal damage (I know you notified Newhaven police, again I have heard nothing from them), and that it was the equivalent of sending a consignment to Germany saying “we won the war”, I disagreed with this comment.
You asked me to confirm that the quotation you received including unpacking and setting up and I confirmed that this was always the case unless specifically requested to port only or pavement only. We have since been advised that you declined the offer of unpacking, you asked me if I would consider compensating you I think you suggested a refund of all our charges and I declined.
You asked me for copies of all paperwork including internal office notes, correspondence between us and yourself and between ourselves and Britannia and any other 3rd parties. You stated that this was a legal requirement under the Data Protection Act. As you are aware I have taken advice and my understanding of the advice is that the Data Protect Act only refers to personal and confidential information, and therefore this type of correspondence is not covered.
The conversation then closed in a civilized manner with a promise that I would do all I could to assist you with a speedy settlement.
Yours sincerely
John Ballard
More emails
Posted by BustaC Wed, 14 Dec 2005 19:22:00 GMT
Monday and Tuesday passed, and we haven't had any faxes of the rest of the information they have on our case, so it's time for another email.
Here is the contents of it below
To Britannia Beckwith
Dear Simon,
Just to let you know I have not as yet received any of the information that I asked yourself and John Ballard to supply. Please could this be dealt with as a matter of some urgency. I was assured by John Ballard on Friday that I would have this on Monday or Tuesday along with any notes he could supply on the phone conversation we had that day. This would seem to be yet another case of promises not fulfilled. As we've said before, any correspondance letting us know if things are talking longer is a courtesy that costs nothing.
Also, we have faxed our claim through to the insurance company and have lodged the damage to the mattress and mattress bag with Newhaven police.
Thanks in advance,
Ian Jones
The vandalism
Posted by BustaC Sun, 11 Dec 2005 23:39:00 GMT
Speaking to various people we found out that as the packaging was ours, we should notify the police that it had been vandalised.
We first of all went to the local police station here in Australia, but was told by them that as it most likely happened in the UK, that it should be reported there.
We have just done so and have been given a case number which we're handing over to the insurance company along with the details of our claim tomorrow.
More phoning
Posted by BustaC Fri, 09 Dec 2005 22:30:00 GMT
We had another phonecall today, and asked again for all the information to do with our case to be faxed through. We were told by Simon Ballard at Britannia Beckwith that it would take him a while to compile, but we would have it with us on Monday or Tuesday.
The terns and conditions
Posted by BustaC Thu, 08 Dec 2005 23:57:00 GMT
After speaking to people at Britannia Beckwith I was told that under their terms and conditions they were not responsible for any damage that our goods received. Unfortunately we were not given a copy of this document (that we had to sign to get the removals process underway), so I asked them to fax it to me.
I also asked them under the Data Protection Act to send me any other information they hold on their systems (either paper or electronic) pertaining to us and our case. Instead of all the documentation that we asked for, we got just the terms and conditions.
Below is a link to them, so you can see for yourself.
Speaking to the wrong people
Posted by BustaC Wed, 07 Dec 2005 23:30:00 GMT
We finally manged to speak to the person who was supposed to be in charge of international shipping at Britannia, and after a long phone conversation we discover, that not only did this person not have any power to give us a refund / compensation, Britannia don't really have much in the way of control over it's child companies.
We also found out that there was no real point in them doing an investigation as they would be very unlikely to find anyone who would own up to any of the damage that happened to our goods.
So really, everything that has happened so far has been to stall us and try and make us 'give up'.
At least we really now know who it is we need to be speaking to (funnily enough the second person at Britannia Beckwith that we had any contact with)!
Our email to the MD of Britannia Beckwith
Dear Sirs,
Following a telephone conversation today with Steve Fanning at Britannia, we have been informed that we should be speaking to yourselves instead as Britannia has no real juristiction over Britannia Beckwith as far as:-
a, The investigation into the state of our goods when they were received,
b, The message written on the mattress bag and stain,
c, Compensation due to the points above.
He has also informed us, as did John Ballard, that an investigation would be futile as no-one would own up to the state of the goods, and even if they did,that the liability would be decided by the insurance company and not yourselves. So, why even bother with an investigation in the first place? If no-one will ever own up to what has happened to our goods.
This, therefore leaves us with a rather bitter taste in our mouths knowing that all we have been subjected to so far is 'stalling tactics'.
Although we realise that the insurance should cover returning of our goods to their original state, this by no way excuses the unprofessionalism and poor service we have been exposed to while attempting to deal with this matter.
We were informed by Steve Fanning that the contract we signed agreeing to the handling of our goods by Britannia Beckwith states that you not responsible for the state of the goods whilst in your care. We have no record of this contract and neither of us can recall ever signing or having brought to our attention the said piece of paper.
As stated in previous emails, we expect a full refund not only for the services that we did not receive, but also to in some way make up for the heartache, and time that we have had to spend trying find someone who can actually take responsibility for sorting out this debacle. Insurance would never be able to cover us for any of this. Steve Fanning has told us that the only person that has the authority to do this is John Ballard.
Please for once, be wholly honest with us, and explain how this can move forward by phone tomorrow morning (your time) between 9am and 12pm.
We are aware that between the two of you, you have been cc'd into all email correspondance that has taken place, therefore we do not expect to be 'palmed off' with someone else again.
Yours sincerely
Mr & Mrs Jones
