Consumer Show
saves 拢10,000 for Cambridgeshire people
大象传媒
Radio Cambridgeshire listeners have saved a massive 拢10,000
in the space of a week, thanks to contacting the radio station聮s
10.00am to 1.00pm consumer programme presented by Gerald Main. The
show encourages listeners to call with their consumer problems,
and Gerald and his team get involved to help find a solution.
In
just one week, the team has helped Cambridgeshire people in the
following ways:
路
A bill for 拢7,000 from a power company recently landed on
a Peterborough listener聮s doorstep, leaving him stunned. He
made many fruitless calls to the customer service department before
calling 大象传媒 Radio Cambridgeshire as a last resort. Within a day,
the radio station got the company to rip up the bill.
路 A 79-year-old Cambridge woman listener was literally worried
sick when she received a utilities bill for 拢2,000. Gerald
and his team contacted the company, and her account has now been
put into credit.
路 Another St Ives listener was conned over the phone into
buying a holiday to the USA that she didn聮t want. 大象传媒 Radio
Cambridgeshire managed to track down the company and claw back 拢400.
路 An Ely business man was astonished when the airline he
booked with refused to change his booking - 大象传媒 Radio Cambridgeshire
managed to get 拢350 back from the company for him.
Presenter
Gerald Main says: "I聮ve been presenting radio shows for
over a quarter of a century, but this programme is unlike anything
else I聮ve ever done. Everyday we聮re making a real difference
to people聮s lives - and not many radio presenters can honestly
say that! It聮s amazing the difference it can make when we call
a company on a listener聮s behalf."
