I have deleted this because I thought it wise to allow scope the opportunity to delete a post I have reported as being nothing short of libel.
I will leave it at that for now.

Interesting. As of today I’ve had enough. If Scope continue to allow abuse from posters I simply won’t respond. I’ve seen a couple of posts which obviously libel specific organisations here recently. The response from Scope was to suggest that the poster had a right to be angry. Enough already I think.

Mike they have not seen fit to remove the post containing what anyone could see was libel, however for my efforts I have been put on moderation, i kid you not !Be extra nice to new members.

Good morning.
Just a quick update, the thread in question has been review and removed. We do not allow or condone remarks that could be considered libellous.
Of course it's acceptable for members to share their frustrations about particular services or companies and share reviews of these, but remarks that are defamatory in nature will not be allowed, as per the community guidelines. -
Thank you Adrian, it really bothered me that scope could be leaving itself open to all sorts of action if a thread that contained libel was allowed to stay on site. I and others did report it at the time.Be extra nice to new members.
