Conduct Of Gestetner Nashua

EDM number 2219 in 1992-93, proposed by Nigel Griffiths on 25/06/1993.

That this House deplores the practice of Gestetner Nashua of systematically attempting to charge customers twice for goods they supply; notes that customers who pay for office equipment by direct debit are routinely sent a second invoice which states 'Please detach and return this advice with your payment to NRG Group Ltd', and that this is contained on a tear-off form implying that payment has not been made when it has; notes that many businesses are having to divert resources from their commercial activities in order to double check the mail they receive for double-charging; and calls on Department of Trade and Industry inspectors to investigate this practice and to ensure that business and other consumers are protected from such unscrupulous business practices.

This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs.
