Reminds me of 'can I have' and someone bleats out, 'I don't know, can you'.

We fully understand the message Anon @14:04 was conveying and so does smarty pants. I do say that in a nice way as this is purely chit chat here. Nothing personal.

On a serious note - This is not my area. However., why are firms so desperate to prevent their former client's having access to their file? The fact that a firm is prepared to spend £10,000 plus to prevent ONE client in accessing their low value RTA file tells you there is a bigger underlying problem here. I was contacted by a client who wanted their file of papers in relation to a probate dispute. Do you think I quoted the recent cases in December, or do you think I just printed off letters, copied documents and posted them to my former client? I have nothing to hide so I carried out the latter. This is the reason why I am scratching my head.

Anything wrong with making a SAR I wonder? Any Data Protection Act experts here to explain why such a request would not override S68 (1) of the SA Act? I am no expert but it would be interesting to know. Perhaps Anonymous@18 June 2018 14:04 could do us a favour and call the ICO and report back.

Dilly dilly......
