See fca.org.uk\/ consumers\/fca-firm-checker Despite growing awareness of fraud, the data on the number of people losing money suggests people are still skipping the final firm check crucial step. So make firm-checking a habit \u2013 just like locking the front door \u2013 before committing any money.<\/p>\n<p>As always, if it seems too good to be true, it invariably is. Hesitate, firm check and protect your money. Cut-off widow has good call of duty LANDLINE hobbled, broadband still going but her direct debit situation looking very iffy for no good reason, it was little wonder that an EE customer did not know where to turn next. Yet a few weeks ago everything had been ticking along as normal for Carol Baird, a long-time EE customer who had always paid on time. Coming to Crusader for help, she explained: \u201cMy landline suddenly became out of order although the broadband continued.<\/p>\n<p>When I enquired why, I was told the line had been disabled because I hadn\u2019t paid my bill for a couple of months. \u201cI was so shocked, I hadn\u2019t checked as there had never been a problem before and my account had plenty of funds. \u201cYet when I did look, I saw no recent payment had been made.<\/p>\n<p>Neither the account nor direct debit number had changed so none if it made any sense.\u201d At first Carol was credited with \u00a347, but wasn\u2019t happy when asked to pay another \u00a380 to have the landline reinstated. \u201cI paid however as I was worried my broadband would be disabled,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>SHAMIMA Begum may be plotting to pay people smugglers to help her return to Britain, astonishing text messages from inside her detention camp claim.
