genebaby Abuser of Charvels Member 501 Member For: 21y 15d Gender: Male Location: Canberra Posted 15/09/11 12:25 PM Share Posted 15/09/11 12:25 PM (edited) I hadn't noticed any replies here for ages but I have been at The Office Of Regulatory Services - Fair Trading for a while now, chasing my submission up. I still can't believe I had to print out and post all my evidence when it looked so much better as digital files with names explaining their content. Anyhow, much harder to track/trace the snail mail but I have got there in the end and after a few phone calls and follow up emails to the names of the officers given someone is looking into the case and I have signed a form giving them permission to use my name/ask me questions, which I am happy to do. Either way, the evidence I was able to capture from a few forums was great.Just playing the waiting game again but will chase them up if I hear nothing after a while.I don't think about it too much but when I do I still can't believe what went down with these units and how the Australian customers have been treated.I have never heard of VCAT before, is it only applicable to Victoria? Herrod trade from Victoria which might make things easier, not sure. It might be a way to go if you can do a class action and only pay the one fee. Not sure what you'd get out of that other than possibly an X3 to continue tuning as before, and whether you get your fee back when you win?What's happening with The Office Of Regulatory Services - Fair Trading is a far reaching thing where SCT's ability to scam, I mean, operate in this country would be affected unless they switched Xcal1 tuning back on, which will benefit everyone across the Australia.Once this happens then it would be an idea for those who had to buy an X3 needlessly to be reimbursed for being scammed, or they could keep the X3 and return the Xcal1 for full refund. Either way, leave that to The Office Of Regulatory Services - Fair Trading to look into how to wrap the mess up.
