BBRS Spin & the Stephen Pegge reality
The BBRS spin machine is once again in full overdrive, evidenced by their promotion of an article published today in The Times. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/bank-complaints-how-to-use-the-business-banking-resolution-service-3cb902p2z It urges SME’s not to ‘self-exclude.’ I know of none that have, but also understand why so many have reservations and concerns.
