Rod,
we have not met, but you should stop bleating.  Even if you are not guilty,
you will get tarred by the same ING brush if you are seen to engage in their
same style of commercial poaching behaviour.   Rise above it - if you can.

Surely it is about time that industry players who want to be seen as
credible stop engaging in questionable practices and take  action to  lift
themselves and the rest of the industry  out of the gutter.

Regards
Richard Keeves
