Easylife Fine; Bogus Bags; Pay As You Can
The Information Commissioner explains why catalogue retailer Easylife has been hit with 拢1.48 million fine for breaking data protection and electronic marketing laws.
As the Information Commissioner's Office hits catalogue retailer Easylife with a massive 拢1.48 million fine for breaking data protection and electronic marketing laws - a company You and Yours reported on in 2018 - the Information Commissioner John Edwards tells Shari Vahl about the practices which they uncovered that led to the fines.
Millions of charity collections bags drop through letter boxes every week and it's way of raising much needed cash for many small charities. However one charity got in touch with You and Yours to say that bags bearing their name and logo are being distributed while they get none of the funds raised in return. We hear what's been happening and how the public can spot bogus bags and rogue distributors.
And with money tight for many people at the moment we visit a Pay As You Can cafe in east Manchester called Infinity Cafe and Hub, to hear how the Pay as You Can Model model works and how it helps local people.
