Thanks for your reply.
I have spoken to my local member of parliament today and he is going to see what he can do.
I have written to the chief magistrate but have not had a reply.
Very hard to find anyone willing to take on Credit Corp here in South Australia.
The Best of British with the politician. Every single time I've consulted one of those galahs regarding a judicial matter, even one that is clearly related to their portfolio, the response has invariably 'we can't do anything with magistrates or judges due to separation of powers'. I know what you mean about Chief Magistrates not responding, they often have their head so far up their fundamental orifice they wouldn't recognize daylight if it fell on them. I have exactly that problem with the Supreme Court judge presiding over the kangaroo court.
Four successive Attorneys General have all ducked for cover even though all relevant documentation says they are responsible for the kangaroo court. That said, we've now collected a group of people who have either been personally victimized by the moronic kangaroo court, or who are carers of victims. After who knows how many phone calls, emails, petitions and whatever harassing local members, ministers and the premier, they are finally inviting us to come and talk. I have no doubt the intention is to pick us off one at a time but we refuse to play that game. We are happy to talk, but only as a group. That way we can record everything said and throw the smelly brown stuff in their faces if they try the tired old trick of misrepresenting minutes of meetings. Forget that crap about being nice to politicians, the ONLY thing they understand is a show of force and even then it takes quite a few swipes across the lugholes with the (figurative) baseball bat before they sit up and take notice. Don't forget the adage about knowing when a politician is lying. They can't help it, its in their DNA.
In theory, the Financial Services Ombudsman has jurisdiction over finance companies although my experience with those oxygen bandits is that they are merely a tool of the banksters. You might care to have a go, nothing ventured, nothing gained and all that.
Another trick I've used in the past with some success is contacting all the entities responsible for licencing operations like Credit Corp. You may find that Credit Corp needs to be accredited with one or more authorities and occasionally you'll find an authority that takes their responsibilities seriously. That worked for me with a typical Gold Coast 'more sharks on the land than in the water' scumbag (not in finance industry) who runs up bills then switches companies to avoid paying. He was still required to be a member of a certain organization that takes scumbaggery on the part of its members VERY seriously and they would certainly have spread the word to the few sister organizations said scumbag could have gone to. As it transpired I got what he owed me so I didn't need to use every tool in the box but its still good to have a full toolkit when one has to do business with the sharks around here.
