    Complaint/Fwd: [SR 1-284217844]

    Hi,

    today I shopped at Farmfoods in Walton Rd., in Kirkdale.

    The brunette lesbian, (I think she must be), seemingly hid behind a frezer and pushed to boxes of Wheetabix, down on a freezer, as if to make a load noise, as if to scare me.

    And then this cashier suddently appeared from behind that freezer, to put the boxes up.

    I’m an old Store Manager, who has worked for around 15 years, in grocery-shops.

    So I thought this was a bit strange.

    It was like she terrorised the custommers on purpose, I think.
    I couldn’t see any other custommers, in the shop, when I was there, (at around 5.40 PM, I think it was).


    Perhaps this cashier has scared all the custommers away from the shop?

    I’m not sure if this was on purpose, but it seemed that way, to me.


    So I thought I should write an e-mail about this.


    I have earlier written to you, since you stopped selling my favoritte chicken-steaks, (Chicken Wiglets).

    But I’ve found a new favoritte now, hot and spicy chicken steaks, (which you sell 3 for 2 pounds).

    They are much better than the chicken steaks at Sainsburys I think.

    So therefore I drop by Farmfoods, before I go to Sainsburys, sometimes.

    Just to buy this good tasting dinner.


    But I didn’t like that the cashier seemingly tryed to kill me by trying to scare me, so that I would get a heart-attack, or something.
    If that’s what she tried to do.

    She didn’t want to say ‘bye’ or ‘tara’ eighter.


    Only ‘see you’.
    (When I said all three).
    I think ‘bye’ is more polite than ‘see you’, if I’m not mistaking.

    And the cashier didn’t apologise for the load noise eighter, when she put the cereal-boxes back up on the shelf, over the freezer.


    Maybe you should let the cereal-packs stay in the box, if the fall down, and make a load sound, like this.

    It was almost like it sounded like a bomb, now in these terror-times.

    Regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

    Hi,

    I’m just back, after shopping at Farmfoods and Sainsbury’s.

    At Sainsbury’s a Securitas-guard patroled right in front of me, when I walked in to the shop.

    I thought that was almost like a provocation.

    (This was your Rice Lane shop, as usual).
    Also, in the self-service till, a Sainsbury-woman, (quite big), in her 40’s, suddently started lifting on my basket, to get to a basket, which was underneath mine.
    (From the custommer before me).

    I’ve seen at Asda.

    At the self-service tills there.

    That a sing says: ‘Always explain the intervention’.

    Your staff didn’t do this.


    She made me almost get a shock, I think I have to say.

    This was like something that could only have happened in Russia.

    I brought my own basket back to the entrance-area, (around where the Security-guard was).
    And it was no shortage of baskets there.

    So I think I have to call this a basket-case.

    Why do your staff act like they’re trained in Russia?
    This was like a provocation, I think.


    You should learn from Asda, which are owned by Wal-Mart, which is an American company.
    Also,  (unilke Asda, Tesco, etc), the self service tills in this shop.

    (Sainsbury’s Rice Lane).


    They are aqwardly placed.

    The carrier-bags are placed to far away from the custommers, I think.
    I think your better at own brand tinned food, than Asda.

    But you just forget my complaints about your noodles, (own brand), which tastes like dish-washing-water, I think.


    (Something like this).

    In your last e-mail.
    There’s no excuse for ignorance, a saying, (here in the UK), says.

    But I don’t think you’ve heard that saying.

    So I want to escalate all the complaints I’ve sent you, please.

    Also, your mashed potatoes, smell bad, which isn’t the case, with Asda’s own-label mashed potatoes.

    And Aldi are better at chicken-steaks, I think.
    Also, you don’t have the chicken-nuggets, (own label), which costs around 70 pence, that Tesco and Asda have.

    I wanted to please escalate all the complaints I’ve sent you, please.

    Hi,

    also, at Christmas, your quite old femal staff with blonde hair.


    In the check-out.


    (I bought so much food for Christmas that I used a trolley and went to the manual check-out).


    She had to have antennas on her, since it was Christmas, it seemed.

    She was almost crying, from this ridiculus costume, it seemed to me.


    It reminded me of when I worked as an assistant manager, at Rimi Bjørndal, in Norway, from 1996 to 1998.


    The Store Manager Kristian Kvehaugen said the check-out-staff had to wear santa-caps.

    But the Marocco-girl, in the check-out, took her red santa head-cap of all the time.

    But your staff didn’t do this.

    So it was a bit like a shop from Mars, last Christmas, I think.

    Also your chicken-steaks, for £1.15, doesn’t taste that delicous, I think.

    Hi,

    is your head-office in Moscow or something?

    Your reply just look like a mess to me.

    Those higher managers, (or what they were), were definetly just standing around.


    I know what I saw, I’m an experienced retail-manager, who has worked for almost a lifetime in retail.


    You just invent a reply, it seems to me.


    I have no confidence in you due to this.

    These people weren’t even in uniform/work-clothes.


    Even if that isn’t isn’t reflected in your reply, I think.

    Also, Sainsbury’s low-priced noodles, doesn’t taste good.


    And Sainsbury’s low-priced potato-mash smells bad, I think.

    (I tried it last week-end, but I just threw it, due to the smell, I have to admit).

    Good luck with the Moscowits, Marsians and Gremlins.

    Thank you for your further email.

    As detailed in my response of 2 March, your comments have been escalated to me as Senior Manager within Careline.  

    In this reply I detailed our final response to the incident in out Rice Lane store on 14 February relating to the inability to process your card payment.  Equally this was addressed in my colleague Katrina Dicks reply on 4 March.

    Similarly in my reply of 2 March I detailed the reason our self scan checkouts where not functioning on your visit to the store. Although it may have appeared my colleagues in store were simply standing around, I assure you this was not the case.

    The extensive detail provided in each of these responses, and those previously sent by my team, provide our final answer on these points. I hope you can use the information provided and I have explained actions of my colleagues in store.

    Hi,

    I’ve sent to your college, Katarina Dick, about this, earlier this week.

    (And asked her to escalate).


    So this is being dealt with already, I think I have to say.


    Regards,


    Erik Ribsskog

    PS.


    Here is more about this:

    Hi,

    ok, I think it’s strange that all your machines doesn’t seem to work.

    It was also a problem with your bank-terminal, at this shop, the week before, (I think it was).

    (Like I have discussed with your college Ajay Chand, like one can see, in one of the forwarded e-mails, with this e-mail).

    A bank-terminal that refuses to let people pay by card, when they have money, on their account.

    That must be pretty rear, I think.

    And that this store also have a group of six self-service tills, that doesn’t work, the next week.

    (Which I haven’t seen in any other store.

    And these tills have been around since 2005, at least, I remember.

    Because I saw them that year, at a big Sainsbury’s in Kensington, in London, where I lived for a couple of weeks, that year).

    So this seems very strange to me.

    It’s like an invasion of Gremlins, I think.

    And how about the group of higher managers, which were standing in between the two groups of self-service tills, on the mentioned Wednesday, (the ones who were monitoring me and the other custommers), do you have an explanation for this?

    Have you had problems with an invasion from Mars?

    I think it must have been something like this, since there has been so much strange ‘stuff’ going on in your store.

    Due to that there have been many problems, I would have wanted to escalate about this, please.

    It has been so much problems with the food-industry lately, (with the horse-meat-scandal etc), so I think this should be on a higher level in your organisation.

    It’s a problem with the whole industry, a lefleat I saw today at Tesco says.

    So due to this I want to escalate, please.

    Dear Mr Ribsskog

    Thanks for your email and the further information you provided.  I’m sorry to learn you’re unhappy with our response.

    As advised in our previous emails, if a card if declined in store we’re unable to establish the reason for this.  The instruction to decline the card comes direct from the card provider.  As I’m sure you can appreciate, we need to act on such requests.  

    The only way to resolve this is to contact your card provider.  They’ll be able to carry out a full investigation and establish the reason the card was declined.  Unfortunately, we’re unable to do this on your behalf.  

    Your card provider wouldn’t be able to provide us with any of this information.  This would constitute a breach of the Data Protection Act.  Your card provider will only be able to discuss this with you.  I’m sorry we’re not able to assist you further.  

    We appreciate you’ve taken the time to contact us again and hope you’re able to get this resolved soon.

    Hi,

    like I wrote in the first e-mail about this problem.

    If it was a problem with the connection, then the bank-terminals in Norway, more than twenty years ago, wrote a receipt, which was almost like a cheque, for the custommer to sign.


    The amount would then take a bit longer time, (a couple of days, I think we told the custommers), to be withdrawn, from the custommers’ bank-accounts.

    So is the UK more than 20 years behind Norway, when it comes to this?

    This doesn’t seem likely, to me.

    I wonder if there have been some ‘Gremlins’ here, messing with my account.


    I think it’s poor custommer-service, that you don’t investigate what has happened here.


    I have also gone to business-school, and learned that the custommer is always right.

    I think the UK is poor on custommer-service.


    You should learn from the USA, I think.

    It doesn’t seem you have a custommer-service attitude, (towards custommers), here in the UK.

    thank you for your e-mail!

    I think that since this was something that happened, in your store, then you have a responsibility, to help finding out what has happened.


    I think it’s poor custommer-support, that I have to go in the bank, and ask them, what has happened.


    I’ve sent you the recepts and all, so this is something you could find out, I think.

    You are just being lazy here, it seems to me.

    Hi,

    I’ve worked as a store manager myself in Norway.


    And if I had gotten a complaint like that, I would have called the company which runs the bank-terminals, and asked them what the problem was.

    So this wasn’t good custommer-support, I think.


    Can I escalate this to your line-manager, please?

    Hi,

    thank you for your e-mail!

    I don’t think it could have been the card-provider, that the problem was with.


    Because like one can see, on the recepits, that I attach copies of.


    The card worked again, a minute after if first had been refused.

    So it was just a temporarely problem, it seems.


    But like I wrote to you earlier, I’ve worked full time, as a cashier, for almost a year, at OBS Triaden, in Norway.

    And this was in 1990/91.


    But we had bank-terminals, in every other till.

    And even 20 years ago, this didn’t happen.


    If the bank terminals were off-line, then the custommer was told to sign a recepit, and this was then like a cheque, more or less.


    So I think it’s to bad, that this worked in Norway, 20 years ago.


    But it doesn’t work in the UK, today.

    I know there is a company, in-between you and the banks.

    (I know, because I’ve also worked as a retail manager in Norway, for ten years, in the Rimi-chain, owned by ICA).

    So I think it could be some ‘Gremlins’ there perhaps.

    This company was called ‘Bank Accept’, (or something), in Norway.

    You probably have an equivalent, (to Bank Accept), here in the UK.


    So I send again about this.


    Perhaps you could escalate this to your line-manager.

    Hi,

    I had a nighmare-experience when I wanted to go, to the Isle of Man, for Easter-holiday.
    I was refused to go, by some underworld, (it seemed), that was let to control the ferry-terminal, by the ferry-company.


    Something like this.

    Perhaps you could have a look at this, (which I explain more about in some of the forwarded e-mails)?

    Hi,

    it isn’t only the USA who have refused me to go on holiday, for funny reasons.
    This easter Isle of Man also did the same.

    The difference is that I get a refund, for my ticket-expenses this time.

    USA owe me around £2000 in ticket-expenses, I think.
    And you should also pay like a million dollars in compensation for messing with me, I think.

    Update/Fwd: Your booking at Adelphi Hotel







    Erik Ribsskog



    Sun, Apr 14, 2013 at 1:13 AM




    To:








    Hi again,

    my grandmother Ingeborg, told me, (and possibly my sister Pia), in the 80’s or 90’s, that my aunt Ellen, always used to be the first of the airplane, from where she lived in Switzerland, when she went to her old home-land Norway.


    And aunt Ellen didn’t have any luggage, for some reason.

    So my aunt Ellen always had to go throw a horrible control, where they looked for narcotica, my grandmother said.


    I guessed they must have put their fingers up both my aunt Ellens anus and vagina, to look for drugs there.


    (That’s how it must have been, I guess, even if my grandmother didn’t detail it like that.

    But she was shook, so I guess it must have been like that, by interperating what my grandmother said and how she looked, while she told this).

    But I don’t know if these people found any drugs in my aunt Ellens vagina and anus.



    My sister Pia and I visited aunt Ellen in Switzerland, in the summer of 1987, and then aunt Ellen told us that she grew a kind of mariuahna, in her garden, after planting seeds, from bird-seeds-(food)-bags.

    And she sent this mild mariuana to friends in Denmark labeling it ‘herb-tea’, I remember she said, and the Danish customs always let her send the marijuana, my aunt said, probably because she’s after Løvenbalk and Danish King Christoffer II and Plantagenet, etc.

    But I don’t know if the airport-control found any narcotics, in my aunts vagina and anus.

    But it’s a bit relief, for me, after being the victim of this homosexual clapping, from the SIA ID-guy Moreton.


    That my aunt also get sexualy harrased when she goes abroad.
    So it’s isn’t only me, in my familiy, at least.

    But my aunt don’t send my inheretence, after grandmother Ingeborg, who died in 2009.

    Becuase my aunt has moved back to Norway now.

    But I guess Ellen uses these money for narcotics.

    Who knows.
    Just as an update.

    Hi,

    thank you for the e-mail!

    I didn’t have the chance to cancel 24 hours in advance, due to that the ferry-company refused me to go with the ferry, to the Isle of Man, on the same day, that the booking was for.


    This was just some silly terror-stuff, I’d say.
    Two guys without uniform attacked me, after I’d passed the ferry-company security-guards.

    So these weren’t really working for the ferry-company, I think.

    And the captain used some gossip, as excuse, for not letting me go with the ferry.

    And the guys without uniform, (but with SIA-ID’s), they, (Mr. Moreton), touched me, all over my upper-body.


    It was like gay sex, I think.

    I’m never going to go to the Isle of Man again.

    One have to have gay sex with terrorists to go there, it seems.

    I suspect the Order of St. John.



    At least, my grandmother Ingeborg, (who was from Danish royalty), once told me, (in the 90’s, I think it must have been), that my aunt Ellen always was harrased when she traveled abroad.


    It’s that order who mess with people who are after Plantagenet etc., I think.

    Something like that.
    But thanks for the e-mail.

    Really I should have gotten millions of pounds in compensation, for this terror-act.
    But this order also controls the lawyers, I think, so I don’t think I’m going to get a penny.

    At least not a penny more than the ticket(s).
    Thanks again for the e-mail!

    Hi,

    I’m refering to your letter which I recieved yesterday, (and attach a photo of).
    Like you can see in the forwarded e-mail, I had also paid for a hotel-room, at Adelphi hotel, in Douglas, for around £35, for my short holiday, to Isle of Man.

    It says that they don’t refund the tickets if one doesn’t use the hotel-room, so you owe me more than for the ferry-trip, I think.

    Also your SIA-ID guys, who didn’t wear any uniform with your logo, they patted me all over my upper-body, in a way that was almost like homosexual sex, I think.


    This was very embarrasing, and I felt Mr. Morton, (I think his name was), hands on me, for days, after this ‘near-gay-experience’, like we say, in Norway.


    Do one have to be homosexual to go to a holiday in the Isle of Man?

    It seems like that to me.



    Who employed these ‘goons’ who seemed to me, hadn’t shaved, for a weeks, (Mr. Moreton), and the other guy hadn’t washed his hair for weeks, it seemed.


    What the hell was this?
    Some kind of sharia or vendetta or something?

    The captain of your ferry, was just gossiping, like a woman.



    He didn’t know who had sent you an e-mail, even so he refered to it.


    How can people take your ferry-company serious when you listen to gossip?
    This was a scandal, I think.
    If this had been in America I would have gotten millions of dollars in compensation, I think.

    And you only give me the money for the ticket.


    I’m an earlier Store Manager and Home Defence-guy, from Norway.

    This is like you disgrace the Norwegian Home Defence.
    This was sickening, I think.
    You should pay a lot more compensation when you mess with people like this, I think.


    This was like a terrorist-act, I think.

    To SIA-guys, an African woman, one captain John and a Police-officer terrorising me.


    Who is behind this?



    The mafia, the CIA, Al Quaida?

    It’s a disgrace to the free world.

    Companies should be made to pay for terrorising people like this, so to scare other companies from doing the same.


    Like they do in America.

    Hi,

    I didn’t get on the ferry to Isle of Man, today, (Saturday), because of problems, at the Ferry-terminal.

    When I went in there, two guys from SGI, (a security-company), wanted to look in my bag.



    On guy was unshawen and the other guy had greasy hair.

    So I thought these could have been criminals that wanted to steal my bag.

    But on guy showed me his ID, and he worked for ‘SIA’ it said, and his name was Mr. Morton, (the unshaven guy), or something.

    The Police was also there.

    (I don’t know if the ferry company called them).

    SIA was happy with me to go with the ferry.

    But then the captain, (John?), told me I couldn’t go, because of something on my blog, taken out of context.

    And someone had sent him a e-mail-threats, in my name, (he said).

    (He had a printed e-mail there that was folded, so I don’t know who sent it).

    A Police officer with number ‘8156’.

    Wondered if I could close down my blog, since someone sends threatening e-mails all the time, in my name.

    But there’s something called freedom of speach, isn’t it?

    So I just said I could close it if I wanted to.

    (But that would be to give in to terror, I think).

    The Police officer told me to tell them if I knew who sent the e-mail, (in my name).

    I said I’ll do that.

    But that’s really their job to find out, isn’t it?

    Seems the Police want’s to have a ‘cowboy-image’ and are afraid to be called nerds, and therefore don’t want to investigate e-mail-crime.

    Something like this.

    I used to work out at the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool, after a collegue, (Karianne), recomended this hotel for working out, (when we worked at Arvato, in the Cunard Building).

    So I thought Adelphi seemed fine, at the Isle of Man.

    I thought you perhaps had the same owners, (or something), you see.

    I send a copy e-mail to my lawyer since someone make my life hell, by sending fake e-mails in my name.

    I just thought I’d go at an Easter Holiday to Isle of Man, and have a look at the Thynwald etc, (with the viking-ship-flag), to get away a bit, since I haven’t been out of England, since 2005.

    But unfortunately, due to the ferry company, this wasn’t possible.

    But I didn’t want to argue, with the captain.

    (After September 11th etc., I don’t think one should do that).

    So I just said I would celebrated Easter at home, and left the ferry-terminal, (but I had to chat with the Police-offer, while I went out of the ‘ferry-company-area’.

    Sorry that I didn’t explain earlier why I didn’t go to get the room, that I’d book.

    But I thought this scene was very embarrasing, so I thought I had to go and drink some lager, before I went home.

    The Police-officer also wanted to know where I lived, so I wondered a bit if Police would be on my door, when I got home, so I went and had some pints, because I had had enough embarasment for one day.

    Sorry about this!

    Best regards,

    Erik Ribsskog

        Hi,
        last year, I got a letter from US Customs and Border
        Protection, Maureen Dugan, Acting Executive Director, Admissibility and
        Passengers Program, Office of Field Operations, from May 14 2009.
        I’ve thought more about this, later last year, and I’ve been
        in contact, with the American Embassy in Oslo.
        They told me to contact you again.
        Since, I can’t see that I did anything wrong, going on a flight to Detroit,
        even if I hadn’t booked a hotel in advance, since I had about £10.000 or 20.000
        $ on my Visa-card, from my study-loan, for some studies that I had to interupt.
        But then I was free to use this loan in which way I wanted to, this is normal
        in Norway, that one can use ones study-loan, to other purposes than studying,
        if conditions change, regarding ones study-situation etc., after one have
        received or applied for a study loan, from the Norwegian Government, like it
        did in my case.
        So I think it is unfair, that I had to go back to Europe,
        since I can’t see that I have done anything wrong.
        I also had to buy a new ticket, that cost more than or around 2.000 $.
        I told the American Embassy in Oslo, that I’ve been using
        around 20.000 NOK or around 4.000 $ on airplane-tickets, to and from America.
        And I wasn’t allowed in to the USA even if I’m a law abiding Norwegian
        citizien, who has never been denied entry more or less anywhere before.
        And also, my suitcase, was delayed for one day, when I went back to Europe, and
        Oslo.
        (Since US Homeland Security had found a lighter, in my suit-case).
        So I had to stay on a hotel in Oslo, (Gardermoen), for one night, waiting for
        my suitcase.
        And that hotel cost 1.000 NOK a night, or around 200 $.
        So my expenes where around 4.200 $ for plane tickets and
        hotel.
        And what did I get in return?
        Nothing, I didn’t get to spend a single second in the USA.
        So I think I should be given compensation from the US
        Government, for this poor treatment and travel expenses.
        In addition, I’ve a lot of time, on sending you e-mails to complain about rude
        treatment, from US Immigration Control, on Detoit International Airport.
        So I think I should be given more compansation, than just flight and hotel
        ticket costs.
        I mentioned the figure 100.000 NOK, as a minimum, of what I think I should be
        compensated, for bad treatment, from the American Government.
        I also know that compensations are high, in the USA, and if
        an American citizen had been treated like this, in eg. Norway, then ‘hell would
        have been loose’.
        And compensations in the USA are generally high, so I don’t
        think 100.000 NOK or 20.000 $ is much to ask for, in compensation, considering
        the poor and unfair treatment I’ve received from the American Government, in
        connection with my flight to Detroit, in 2005, with Lufthansa, from Frankfurt.
        The check for at least the mentioned amount, can be sent to:

        Flat 3
        5 Leather Lane
        Liverpool
        GB-L2 2AE
        UK
        I’m also sending a copy of this e-mail to the Norwegian
        Foreign Ministry, to whom I’ve also complained about the way I was treated by
        the American Imigration Control in Detriot, earlier.
        I hope this is alright and thank you very much in advance
        for you help!
        Sincerely,

        Subject: Kompansasjon for tull fra amerikanske myndigheter?
        Hei,
        tidligere
        iår, så fikk jeg et beklagelse-brev sendt til meg i England, hvor jeg bor nå,
        etter å ha blitt tullet med av amerikanske myndigheter, på flyplassen i
        Detroit, i 2005, og sendt tilbake til Europa, med engang jeg kom til USA, uten
        noen bra begrunnelse ble jeg tullet med.
        Kofferten min ble også holdt tilbake, en ekstra dag, så jeg måtte bo en dag på
        hotell på Gardermoen.
        Når jeg tenker på det nå, så var det fint å få beklagelse-brev.
        Men billettene til og fra USA, kosta meg jo rundt 20.000 norske kroner.
        Og 1000 kroner for hotellet på Gardermoen.
        Pluss at jeg synes at jeg burde fått noe for tort og svie også.
        Så 100.000 norske kroner, ville jeg ha sett på som et slags minstebeløp, å få i
        kompansasjon, siden kompansasjoner er så høye i USA, så hvis dette hadde skjedd
        med en amerikaner, så hadde jeg vel fått mange millioner.

        Hi,

        it isn’t only the USA who have refused me to go on holiday, for funny reasons.
        This easter Isle of Man also did the same.

        The difference is that I get a refund, for my ticket-expenses this time.


        USA owe me around £2000 in ticket-expenses, I think.
        And you should also pay like a million dollars in compensation for messing with me, I think.

        Erik Ribsskog

        Hi again,

        my grandmother Ingeborg, told me, (and possibly my sister Pia), in the 80’s or 90’s, that my aunt Ellen, always used to be the first of the airplane, from where she lived in Switzerland, when she went to her old home-land Norway.


        And aunt Ellen didn’t have any luggage, for some reason.


        So my aunt Ellen always had to go throw a horrible control, where they looked for narcotica, my grandmother said.


        I guessed they must have put their fingers up both my aunt Ellens anus and vagina, to look for drugs there.


        (That’s how it must have been, I guess, even if my grandmother didn’t detail it like that.

        But she was shook, so I guess it must have been like that, by interperating what my grandmother said and how she looked, while she told this).

        But I don’t know if these people found any drugs in my aunt Ellens vagina and anus.

        My sister Pia and I visited aunt Ellen in Switzerland, in the summer of 1987, and then aunt Ellen told us that she grew a kind of mariuahna, in her garden, after planting seeds, from bird-seeds-(food)-bags.


        And she sent this mild mariuana to friends in Denmark labeling it ‘herb-tea’, I remember she said, and the Danish customs always let her send the marijuana, my aunt said, probably because she’s after Løvenbalk and Danish King Christoffer II and Plantagenet, etc.


        But I don’t know if the airport-control found any narcotics, in my aunts vagina and anus.


        But it’s a bit relief, for me, after being the victim of this homosexual clapping, from the SIA ID-guy Moreton.



        That my aunt also get sexualy harrased when she goes abroad.

        So it’s isn’t only me, in my familiy, at least.


        But my aunt don’t send my inheretence, after grandmother Ingeborg, who died in 2009.


        Becuase my aunt has moved back to Norway now.

        But I guess Ellen uses these money for narcotics.


        Who knows.

        Just as an update.

        Hi,

        thank you for the e-mail!

        I didn’t have the chance to cancel 24 hours in advance, due to that the ferry-company refused me to go with the ferry, to the Isle of Man, on the same day, that the booking was for.


        This was just some silly terror-stuff, I’d say.

        Two guys without uniform attacked me, after I’d passed the ferry-company security-guards.


        So these weren’t really working for the ferry-company, I think.


        And the captain used some gossip, as excuse, for not letting me go with the ferry.


        And the guys without uniform, (but with SIA-ID’s), they, (Mr. Moreton), touched me, all over my upper-body.



        It was like gay sex, I think.

        I’m never going to go to the Isle of Man again.


        One have to have gay sex with terrorists to go there, it seems.

        I suspect the Order of St. John.


        At least, my grandmother Ingeborg, (who was from Danish royalty), once told me, (in the 90’s, I think it must have been), that my aunt Ellen always was harrased when she traveled abroad.



        It’s that order who mess with people who are after Plantagenet etc., I think.


        Something like that.

        But thanks for the e-mail.


        Really I should have gotten millions of pounds in compensation, for this terror-act.

        But this order also controls the lawyers, I think, so I don’t think I’m going to get a penny.

        At least not a penny more than the ticket(s).

        Thanks again for the e-mail!


        Regards,


        Erik Ribsskog

        Hi,

        I’m refering to your letter which I recieved yesterday, (and attach a photo of).


        Like you can see in the forwarded e-mail, I had also paid for a hotel-room, at Adelphi hotel, in Douglas, for around £35, for my short holiday, to Isle of Man.


        It says that they don’t refund the tickets if one doesn’t use the hotel-room, so you owe me more than for the ferry-trip, I think.


        Also your SIA-ID guys, who didn’t wear any uniform with your logo, they patted me all over my upper-body, in a way that was almost like homosexual sex, I think.



        This was very embarrasing, and I felt Mr. Morton, (I think his name was), hands on me, for days, after this ‘near-gay-experience’, like we say, in Norway.



        Do one have to be homosexual to go to a holiday in the Isle of Man?


        It seems like that to me.


        Who employed these ‘goons’ who seemed to me, hadn’t shaved, for a weeks, (Mr. Moreton), and the other guy hadn’t washed his hair for weeks, it seemed.



        What the hell was this?

        Some kind of sharia or vendetta or something?


        The captain of your ferry, was just gossiping, like a woman.

        He didn’t know who had sent you an e-mail, even so he refered to it.

        How can people take your ferry-company serious when you listen to gossip?


        This was a scandal, I think.

        If this had been in America I would have gotten millions of dollars in compensation, I think.


        And you only give me the money for the ticket.

        I’m an earlier Store Manager and Home Defence-guy, from Norway.



        This is like you disgrace the Norwegian Home Defence.

        This was sickening, I think.

        You should pay a lot more compensation when you mess with people like this, I think.



        This was like a terrorist-act, I think.


        To SIA-guys, an African woman, one captain John and a Police-officer terrorising me.

        Who is behind this?


        The mafia, the CIA, Al Quaida?

        It’s a disgrace to the free world.

        Companies should be made to pay for terrorising people like this, so to scare other companies from doing the same.


        Like they do in America.

        Hi,

        I didn’t get on the ferry to Isle of Man, today, (Saturday), because of problems, at the Ferry-terminal.

        When I went in there, two guys from SGI, (a security-company), wanted to look in my bag.


        On guy was unshawen and the other guy had greasy hair.

        So I thought these could have been criminals that wanted to steal my bag.

        But on guy showed me his ID, and he worked for ‘SIA’ it said, and his name was Mr. Morton, (the unshaven guy), or something.

        The Police was also there.

        (I don’t know if the ferry company called them).

        SIA was happy with me to go with the ferry.

        But then the captain, (John?), told me I couldn’t go, because of something on my blog, taken out of context.

        And someone had sent him a e-mail-threats, in my name, (he said).

        (He had a printed e-mail there that was folded, so I don’t know who sent it).

        A Police officer with number ‘8156’.

        Wondered if I could close down my blog, since someone sends threatening e-mails all the time, in my name.

        But there’s something called freedom of speach, isn’t it?

        So I just said I could close it if I wanted to.

        (But that would be to give in to terror, I think).

        The Police officer told me to tell them if I knew who sent the e-mail, (in my name).

        I said I’ll do that.

        But that’s really their job to find out, isn’t it?

        Seems the Police want’s to have a ‘cowboy-image’ and are afraid to be called nerds, and therefore don’t want to investigate e-mail-crime.

        Something like this.

        I used to work out at the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool, after a collegue, (Karianne), recomended this hotel for working out, (when we worked at Arvato, in the Cunard Building).

        So I thought Adelphi seemed fine, at the Isle of Man.

        I thought you perhaps had the same owners, (or something), you see.

        I send a copy e-mail to my lawyer since someone make my life hell, by sending fake e-mails in my name.

        I just thought I’d go at an Easter Holiday to Isle of Man, and have a look at the Thynwald etc, (with the viking-ship-flag), to get away a bit, since I haven’t been out of England, since 2005.

        But unfortunately, due to the ferry company, this wasn’t possible.

        But I didn’t want to argue, with the captain.

        (After September 11th etc., I don’t think one should do that).

        So I just said I would celebrated Easter at home, and left the ferry-terminal, (but I had to chat with the Police-offer, while I went out of the ‘ferry-company-area’.

        Sorry that I didn’t explain earlier why I didn’t go to get the room, that I’d book.

        But I thought this scene was very embarrasing, so I thought I had to go and drink some lager, before I went home.

        The Police-officer also wanted to know where I lived, so I wondered a bit if Police would be on my door, when I got home, so I went and had some pints, because I had had enough embarasment for one day.

        Sorry about this!

        Best regards,

        Erik Ribsskog

          Hi,

          last year, I got a letter from US Customs and Border

          Protection, Maureen Dugan, Acting Executive Director, Admissibility and
          Passengers Program, Office of Field Operations, from May 14 2009.

          I’ve thought more about this, later last year, and I’ve been

          in contact, with the American Embassy in Oslo.

          They told me to contact you again.

          Since, I can’t see that I did anything wrong, going on a flight to Detroit,
          even if I hadn’t booked a hotel in advance, since I had about £10.000 or 20.000
          $ on my Visa-card, from my study-loan, for some studies that I had to interupt.

          But then I was free to use this loan in which way I wanted to, this is normal
          in Norway, that one can use ones study-loan, to other purposes than studying,
          if conditions change, regarding ones study-situation etc., after one have
          received or applied for a study loan, from the Norwegian Government, like it
          did in my case.

          So I think it is unfair, that I had to go back to Europe,

          since I can’t see that I have done anything wrong.

          I also had to buy a new ticket, that cost more than or around 2.000 $.

          I told the American Embassy in Oslo, that I’ve been using

          around 20.000 NOK or around 4.000 $ on airplane-tickets, to and from America.

          And I wasn’t allowed in to the USA even if I’m a law abiding Norwegian
          citizien, who has never been denied entry more or less anywhere before.

          And also, my suitcase, was delayed for one day, when I went back to Europe, and
          Oslo.

          (Since US Homeland Security had found a lighter, in my suit-case).

          So I had to stay on a hotel in Oslo, (Gardermoen), for one night, waiting for
          my suitcase.

          And that hotel cost 1.000 NOK a night, or around 200 $.

          So my expenes where around 4.200 $ for plane tickets and

          hotel.

          And what did I get in return?

          Nothing, I didn’t get to spend a single second in the USA.

          So I think I should be given compensation from the US

          Government, for this poor treatment and travel expenses.

          In addition, I’ve a lot of time, on sending you e-mails to complain about rude
          treatment, from US Immigration Control, on Detoit International Airport.

          So I think I should be given more compansation, than just flight and hotel
          ticket costs.

          I mentioned the figure 100.000 NOK, as a minimum, of what I think I should be
          compensated, for bad treatment, from the American Government.

          I also know that compensations are high, in the USA, and if

          an American citizen had been treated like this, in eg. Norway, then ‘hell would
          have been loose’.

          And compensations in the USA are generally high, so I don’t

          think 100.000 NOK or 20.000 $ is much to ask for, in compensation, considering
          the poor and unfair treatment I’ve received from the American Government, in
          connection with my flight to Detroit, in 2005, with Lufthansa, from Frankfurt.

          The check for at least the mentioned amount, can be sent to:

          I’m also sending a copy of this e-mail to the Norwegian

          Foreign Ministry, to whom I’ve also complained about the way I was treated by
          the American Imigration Control in Detriot, earlier.

          I hope this is alright and thank you very much in advance

          for you help!

          Hei,

          tidligere

          iår, så fikk jeg et beklagelse-brev sendt til meg i England, hvor jeg bor nå,
          etter å ha blitt tullet med av amerikanske myndigheter, på flyplassen i
          Detroit, i 2005, og sendt tilbake til Europa, med engang jeg kom til USA, uten
          noen bra begrunnelse ble jeg tullet med.

          Kofferten min ble også holdt tilbake, en ekstra dag, så jeg måtte bo en dag på
          hotell på Gardermoen.

          Når jeg tenker på det nå, så var det fint å få beklagelse-brev.

          Men billettene til og fra USA, kosta meg jo rundt 20.000 norske kroner.

          Og 1000 kroner for hotellet på Gardermoen.

          Pluss at jeg synes at jeg burde fått noe for tort og svie også.

          Så 100.000 norske kroner, ville jeg ha sett på som et slags minstebeløp, å få i
          kompansasjon, siden kompansasjoner er så høye i USA, så hvis dette hadde skjedd
          med en amerikaner, så hadde jeg vel fått mange millioner.

          Hi again,

          my grandmother Ingeborg, told me, (and possibly my sister Pia), in the 80’s or 90’s, that my aunt Ellen, always used to be the first of the airplane, from where she lived in Switzerland, when she went to her old home-land Norway.

          And aunt Ellen didn’t have any luggage, for some reason.

          So my aunt Ellen always had to go throw a horrible control, where they looked for narcotica, my grandmother said.

          I guessed they must have put their fingers up both my aunt Ellens anus and vagina, to look for drugs there.


          (That’s how it must have been, I guess, even if my grandmother didn’t detail it like that.

          But she was shook, so I guess it must have been like that, by interperating what my grandmother said and how she looked, while she told this).

          But I don’t know if these people found any drugs in my aunt Ellens vagina and anus.


          My sister Pia and I visited aunt Ellen in Switzerland, in the summer of 1987, and then aunt Ellen told us that she grew a kind of mariuahna, in her garden, after planting seeds, from bird-seeds-(food)-bags.


          And she sent this mild mariuana to friends in Denmark labeling it ‘herb-tea’, I remember she said, and the Danish customs always let her send the marijuana, my aunt said, probably because she’s after Løvenbalk and Danish King Christoffer II and Plantagenet, etc.

          But I don’t know if the airport-control found any narcotics, in my aunts vagina and anus.

          But it’s a bit relief, for me, after being the victim of this homosexual clapping, from the SIA ID-guy Moreton.


          That my aunt also get sexualy harrased when she goes abroad.
          So it’s isn’t only me, in my familiy, at least.

          But my aunt don’t send my inheretence, after grandmother Ingeborg, who died in 2009.


          Becuase my aunt has moved back to Norway now.

          But I guess Ellen uses these money for narcotics.

          Who knows.
          Just as an update.

          Hi,

          thank you for the e-mail!

          I didn’t have the chance to cancel 24 hours in advance, due to that the ferry-company refused me to go with the ferry, to the Isle of Man, on the same day, that the booking was for.

          This was just some silly terror-stuff, I’d say.
          Two guys without uniform attacked me, after I’d passed the ferry-company security-guards.

          So these weren’t really working for the ferry-company, I think.

          And the captain used some gossip, as excuse, for not letting me go with the ferry.

          And the guys without uniform, (but with SIA-ID’s), they, (Mr. Moreton), touched me, all over my upper-body.


          It was like gay sex, I think.

          I’m never going to go to the Isle of Man again.

          One have to have gay sex with terrorists to go there, it seems.

          I suspect the Order of St. John.


          At least, my grandmother Ingeborg, (who was from Danish royalty), once told me, (in the 90’s, I think it must have been), that my aunt Ellen always was harrased when she traveled abroad.

          It’s that order who mess with people who are after Plantagenet etc., I think.


          Something like that.
          But thanks for the e-mail.

          Really I should have gotten millions of pounds in compensation, for this terror-act.
          But this order also controls the lawyers, I think, so I don’t think I’m going to get a penny.

          At least not a penny more than the ticket(s).
          Thanks again for the e-mail!

          Regards,

          Hi,

          I’m refering to your letter which I recieved yesterday, (and attach a photo of).

          Like you can see in the forwarded e-mail, I had also paid for a hotel-room, at Adelphi hotel, in Douglas, for around £35, for my short holiday, to Isle of Man.

          It says that they don’t refund the tickets if one doesn’t use the hotel-room, so you owe me more than for the ferry-trip, I think.


          Also your SIA-ID guys, who didn’t wear any uniform with your logo, they patted me all over my upper-body, in a way that was almost like homosexual sex, I think.


          This was very embarrasing, and I felt Mr. Morton, (I think his name was), hands on me, for days, after this ‘near-gay-experience’, like we say, in Norway.


          Do one have to be homosexual to go to a holiday in the Isle of Man?

          It seems like that to me.


          Who employed these ‘goons’ who seemed to me, hadn’t shaved, for a weeks, (Mr. Moreton), and the other guy hadn’t washed his hair for weeks, it seemed.


          What the hell was this?

          Some kind of sharia or vendetta or something?

          The captain of your ferry, was just gossiping, like a woman.


          He didn’t know who had sent you an e-mail, even so he refered to it.

          How can people take your ferry-company serious when you listen to gossip?

          This was a scandal, I think.

          If this had been in America I would have gotten millions of dollars in compensation, I think.

          And you only give me the money for the ticket.

          I’m an earlier Store Manager and Home Defence-guy, from Norway.


          This is like you disgrace the Norwegian Home Defence.

          This was sickening, I think.

          You should pay a lot more compensation when you mess with people like this, I think.


          This was like a terrorist-act, I think.

          To SIA-guys, an African woman, one captain John and a Police-officer terrorising me.

          Who is behind this?


          The mafia, the CIA, Al Quaida?

          It’s a disgrace to the free world.

          Companies should be made to pay for terrorising people like this, so to scare other companies from doing the same.


          Like they do in America.

          Hi,

          I didn’t get on the ferry to Isle of Man, today, (Saturday), because of problems, at the Ferry-terminal.

          When I went in there, two guys from SGI, (a security-company), wanted to look in my bag.

          On guy was unshawen and the other guy had greasy hair.

          So I thought these could have been criminals that wanted to steal my bag.

          But on guy showed me his ID, and he worked for ‘SIA’ it said, and his name was Mr. Morton, (the unshaven guy), or something.

          The Police was also there.

          (I don’t know if the ferry company called them).

          SIA was happy with me to go with the ferry.

          But then the captain, (John?), told me I couldn’t go, because of something on my blog, taken out of context.

          And someone had sent him a e-mail-threats, in my name, (he said).

          (He had a printed e-mail there that was folded, so I don’t know who sent it).

          A Police officer with number ‘8156’.

          Wondered if I could close down my blog, since someone sends threatening e-mails all the time, in my name.

          But there’s something called freedom of speach, isn’t it?

          So I just said I could close it if I wanted to.

          (But that would be to give in to terror, I think).

          The Police officer told me to tell them if I knew who sent the e-mail, (in my name).

          I said I’ll do that.

          But that’s really their job to find out, isn’t it?

          Seems the Police want’s to have a ‘cowboy-image’ and are afraid to be called nerds, and therefore don’t want to investigate e-mail-crime.

          Something like this.

          I used to work out at the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool, after a collegue, (Karianne), recomended this hotel for working out, (when we worked at Arvato, in the Cunard Building).

          So I thought Adelphi seemed fine, at the Isle of Man.

          I thought you perhaps had the same owners, (or something), you see.

          I send a copy e-mail to my lawyer since someone make my life hell, by sending fake e-mails in my name.

          I just thought I’d go at an Easter Holiday to Isle of Man, and have a look at the Thynwald etc, (with the viking-ship-flag), to get away a bit, since I haven’t been out of England, since 2005.

          But unfortunately, due to the ferry company, this wasn’t possible.

          But I didn’t want to argue, with the captain.

          (After September 11th etc., I don’t think one should do that).

          So I just said I would celebrated Easter at home, and left the ferry-terminal, (but I had to chat with the Police-offer, while I went out of the ‘ferry-company-area’.

          Sorry that I didn’t explain earlier why I didn’t go to get the room, that I’d book.

          But I thought this scene was very embarrasing, so I thought I had to go and drink some lager, before I went home.

          The Police-officer also wanted to know where I lived, so I wondered a bit if Police would be on my door, when I got home, so I went and had some pints, because I had had enough embarasment for one day.

          Sorry about this!

          Best regards,

          Erik Ribsskog

            Hi,

            thank you for the e-mail!

            I didn’t have the chance to cancel 24 hours in advance, due to that the ferry-company refused me to go with the ferry, to the Isle of Man, on the same day, that the booking was for.

            This was just some silly terror-stuff, I’d say.
            Two guys without uniform attacked me, after I’d passed the ferry-company security-guards.

            So these weren’t really working for the ferry-company, I think.

            And the captain used some gossip, as excuse, for not letting me go with the ferry.

            And the guys without uniform, (but with SIA-ID’s), they, (Mr. Moreton), touched me, all over my upper-body.


            It was like gay sex, I think.

            I’m never going to go to the Isle of Man again.

            One have to have gay sex with terrorists to go there, it seems.

            I suspect the Order of St. John.


            At least, my grandmother Ingeborg, (who was from Danish royalty), once told me, (in the 90’s, I think it must have been), that my aunt Ellen always was harrased when she traveled abroad.

            It’s that order who mess with people who are after Plantagenet etc., I think.


            Something like that.
            But thanks for the e-mail.

            Really I should have gotten millions of pounds in compensation, for this terror-act.
            But this order also controls the lawyers, I think, so I don’t think I’m going to get a penny.

            At least not a penny more than the ticket(s).
            Thanks again for the e-mail!

            Regards,


            Erik Ribsskog

            Hi,

            I’m refering to your letter which I recieved yesterday, (and attach a photo of).

            Like you can see in the forwarded e-mail, I had also paid for a hotel-room, at Adelphi hotel, in Douglas, for around £35, for my short holiday, to Isle of Man.

            It says that they don’t refund the tickets if one doesn’t use the hotel-room, so you owe me more than for the ferry-trip, I think.


            Also your SIA-ID guys, who didn’t wear any uniform with your logo, they patted me all over my upper-body, in a way that was almost like homosexual sex, I think.


            This was very embarrasing, and I felt Mr. Morton, (I think his name was), hands on me, for days, after this ‘near-gay-experience’, like we say, in Norway.


            Do one have to be homosexual to go to a holiday in the Isle of Man?

            It seems like that to me.


            Who employed these ‘goons’ who seemed to me, hadn’t shaved, for a weeks, (Mr. Moreton), and the other guy hadn’t washed his hair for weeks, it seemed.


            What the hell was this?

            Some kind of sharia or vendetta or something?

            The captain of your ferry, was just gossiping, like a woman.


            He didn’t know who had sent you an e-mail, even so he refered to it.

            How can people take your ferry-company serious when you listen to gossip?

            This was a scandal, I think.

            If this had been in America I would have gotten millions of dollars in compensation, I think.

            And you only give me the money for the ticket.

            I’m an earlier Store Manager and Home Defence-guy, from Norway.


            This is like you disgrace the Norwegian Home Defence.

            This was sickening, I think.

            You should pay a lot more compensation when you mess with people like this, I think.


            This was like a terrorist-act, I think.

            To SIA-guys, an African woman, one captain John and a Police-officer terrorising me.

            Who is behind this?


            The mafia, the CIA, Al Quaida?

            It’s a disgrace to the free world.

            Companies should be made to pay for terrorising people like this, so to scare other companies from doing the same.


            Like they do in America.

            Hi,

            I didn’t get on the ferry to Isle of Man, today, (Saturday), because of problems, at the Ferry-terminal.

            When I went in there, two guys from SGI, (a security-company), wanted to look in my bag.

            On guy was unshawen and the other guy had greasy hair.

            So I thought these could have been criminals that wanted to steal my bag.

            But on guy showed me his ID, and he worked for ‘SIA’ it said, and his name was Mr. Morton, (the unshaven guy), or something.

            The Police was also there.

            (I don’t know if the ferry company called them).

            SIA was happy with me to go with the ferry.

            But then the captain, (John?), told me I couldn’t go, because of something on my blog, taken out of context.

            And someone had sent him a e-mail-threats, in my name, (he said).

            (He had a printed e-mail there that was folded, so I don’t know who sent it).

            A Police officer with number ‘8156’.

            Wondered if I could close down my blog, since someone sends threatening e-mails all the time, in my name.

            But there’s something called freedom of speach, isn’t it?

            So I just said I could close it if I wanted to.

            (But that would be to give in to terror, I think).

            The Police officer told me to tell them if I knew who sent the e-mail, (in my name).

            I said I’ll do that.

            But that’s really their job to find out, isn’t it?

            Seems the Police want’s to have a ‘cowboy-image’ and are afraid to be called nerds, and therefore don’t want to investigate e-mail-crime.

            Something like this.

            I used to work out at the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool, after a collegue, (Karianne), recomended this hotel for working out, (when we worked at Arvato, in the Cunard Building).

            So I thought Adelphi seemed fine, at the Isle of Man.

            I thought you perhaps had the same owners, (or something), you see.

            I send a copy e-mail to my lawyer since someone make my life hell, by sending fake e-mails in my name.

            I just thought I’d go at an Easter Holiday to Isle of Man, and have a look at the Thynwald etc, (with the viking-ship-flag), to get away a bit, since I haven’t been out of England, since 2005.

            But unfortunately, due to the ferry company, this wasn’t possible.

            But I didn’t want to argue, with the captain.

            (After September 11th etc., I don’t think one should do that).

            So I just said I would celebrated Easter at home, and left the ferry-terminal, (but I had to chat with the Police-offer, while I went out of the ‘ferry-company-area’.

            Sorry that I didn’t explain earlier why I didn’t go to get the room, that I’d book.

            But I thought this scene was very embarrasing, so I thought I had to go and drink some lager, before I went home.

            The Police-officer also wanted to know where I lived, so I wondered a bit if Police would be on my door, when I got home, so I went and had some pints, because I had had enough embarasment for one day.

            Sorry about this!

            Best regards,

            Erik Ribsskog

                Hi … My name is Heidi Kristin Ovesen .. Has worked with genealogy for several years. Found out maybe we are related .. Your tippolefar John Olsen Ribsskog was the brother of my tippolemor Julianne Olsdatter born 03/02/1841 in Ribsskog in Fosnæs. Their parents, Ole Olsen and Gaula Olsdatter. Hope you can answer so fast, my email address: heimarku@online.no

                Hei,
                du mener Johannes Olsen Ribsskog?
                (Min tippoldefar).
                Far til den kjente Bernhof Ribsskog, (mannen bak normalplanen for grunnskolen), og min oldefar Johan Ribsskog, (som flytta til Skedsmo, fra Trøndelag, og gifta seg med søstera til Asbjørn Dørumsgaard, nemlig Helga Dørumsgaard).

                Hvorfor skriver du på engelsk?
                Jeg er ikke engelsk, men har flykta til England, etter at jeg overhørte at jeg var forfulgt av noe ‘mafian’, på jobb, i Oslo, i 2003.

                Det er bare det at jeg ikke får rettighetene mine, fra myndighetene, så derfor blir jeg boende i England så lenge.
                Mvh.

                Hei.. Unnskyld, jeg trodde at du bor i England derfor jeg skrev på engelsk. Ja, Johannes Olsen Ribsskogen fra Flatanger.. Jeg mistanker at han var broren til min tippoldemor Julianna Olsdatter født i Ribsskog i Fosnæs. (Flantanger).

                Heidi

              • 17:09

                Erik Ribsskog

                Ok,
                er du engelsk selv, forresten?
                Jeg kan godt skrive på engelsk.
                Men jeg trodde du var norsk, siden navnet ditt var så norsk.

                Betyr ‘Gaula’ Gulla?
                Jeg trodde at Johannes Olsen Ribsskog, fikk Ribsskogen utskilt fra Høstlandet, etter å ha gifta seg, med en Høstland-dame.

                Og at faren hans døde på havet, et annet sted i Trøndelag.

                Litt rart at søstera til Johannes Olsen Ribsskog ble født i Ribsskogen, hvis Ribsskogen da var eid av Høstland, (og gitt i bryllupsgave av Høstland liksom, for Johannes Olsen Ribsskog sin kone var jo Marta Maria Klemetsdatter Høstland, husker jeg).

                Johannes Olsen Ribsskog er født i 1838 står det, (i Bjørn Ribsskog sin slektsforskning):
                http://johncons-mirror.blogspot.co.uk/2010/05/en-oversikt-over-slekten-ribsskog.html

                Hvordan kan søstera ha blitt født på Ribsskog tror du, hvis broren ble født på Fjell, i Straumen, i Flatanger, tre år før?
                Jeg er ikke Flatanger, så jeg vet ikke om disse stedene er nabosteder, i hodet.

                Her er mer fra Bjørn Ribsskog sin slektsforskning i linken ovenfor:
                født 18.11.1838
                på Fjell, oppvokset på Straumen, Flatanger, død 25.6.1910

                Bonde, Flatanger.

                Far: Ole Olsen Kvaløsæter, født ca 1804,
                omkom på Viknahavet, gift 11.7.1830 med mor, Gullaug (Golla) Olsdatter, født 1795,
                død 1885 ( døpt i Halmøy kirke 5.9.1802, far Ole Olsen Solum, 1764–1844

                (gift 1797 med) mor Maren Joelsdatter Ørsundlien født 1769).

                Ole Olsen Solums foreldre var Ole Arentsen Solum og hustru Ane Olsdatter.
                Ole og Gullaug måtte gå fra gården på Fjell og flyttet

                til Woxeng på Vikna. (Hun hadde også en bror som hette Ole
                Olsen, som bodde på gården.)

                Etter at Ole omkom flyttet Gullaug tilbake til Flatanger. Alle barna
                ble ”satt bort”.

                gift med

                Martha Maria Klemetsdatter Høstland, født 16.4.1847 i Osen i Bjørnør, Flatanger, død 11.7.1901. Far:
                Klemet Høstland.
                Johannes og Martha overtok jord til slektsgården, ”Lille-Ribsskogen”

                (Resskogen)som ”medgifte”, utskilt fra Høstlandet, gården til
                Marthas foreldre, og bygde her sitt hjem, ikke langt fra Hilstadvatnet
                mellom Vik og Einvika. Våningshuset brant ned11.4.1989 og er ikke gjennoppbygget.
                Bruket er på ca 20 da dyrket og ca 250 da utmark. I dag står et uthus
                og en hytte på stedet. Hytta tilhører Aslaug Ribsskog.

                Dette småbrukerparet fikk 9 barn som vokste opp, 7 gutter og 2 jenter.

                Fem av guttene tok lærerutdanning.

                Nei, jeg er norsk.. Er fra Trondheim.. Ja det kan hende hun Golla het Gullaug eller Gulla eller hva som helst men skal se dåp hennes i kirkebøker fra Flatanger.. Ribsskog kom fra gården tror jeg. Kommer tilbake når jeg finner mer.
              • 17:36

                Heidi Kristin Ovesen

                Jeg har funnet at min oldemor Grete Aladine Iversdatters dåp stod: Foreldrene: Ole Olsen og Juliane Olsdatter. Faddere: Marta Klemetsdatter Ribsskog, Johannes Olsen Ribsskog. Det høres ut alt stemmer at Juliane var søster til Johannes.
              • 18:06

                Erik Ribsskog

                Ok,
                jeg kjenner ei trønderdame som heter Siri Rognli Olsen, fra Ranheim, som jeg traff på Englandsbåten Braemar en gang, som tenåring.

                Men hu er litt tjukk og hu blei pervers, etter at hu flytta til Oslo, og gikk på sex-klubb og hadde SM-sex osv., fortalte hu meg, (selv om jeg bare hadde vanlig sex med henne da, som hu kalte for ‘vanilje’, så hu er litt snål, må man vel si).

                Bare noe jeg kom på.
                Ja, det var hyggelig å høre fra noen etter søstera til tippoldefaren min, det er helt sikkert.
                Jeg er etter Ribsskog på morsida.

                Min far heter Arne Mogan Olsen.
                Men mora mi flytta fra han, da jeg var tre år, og skifta navn på meg, fra Olsen til Ribsskog, da jeg var fem år, (var det vel).

                Og så flytta jeg tilbake til min far, da jeg var ni år, (fordi at mora mi ville det).
                Så jeg kjente min morfar, (Johannes Ribsskog som var rådmann i Hadsel i Vesterålen, og kontorsjef i Hurum kommune, etter dette), kun fra jeg var fem år til jeg var ni år, da jeg bodde i Larvik og han bodde i Nevlunghavn.

                Så døde han i Spania, på midten av 80-tallet.
                Og min farfar Øivind Olsen, han likte ikke Johannes Ribsskog, så jeg hadde ikke kontakt med Johannes, fra jeg var ni år, til Øivind døde, da jeg var sånn 13-14 år vel.

                Så ringte jeg Johannes og sa fra, at Øivind hadde dødd.
                Og så fikk søstera mi, (som også hadde flytta til faren min da), og jeg, lov å besøke Ingeborg, (min mormor som var etter danske adelige osv), og Johannes, i Nevlunghavn.

                Noe som ble et siste besøk, (dette var vel i 1983), og så døde Johannes i Spania noen måneder seinere, var det vel.
                Hans far Johan Ribsskog savnet Flatanger, etter at han flytta til Skedsmo, fortalte min mormor, etter at Johannes døde.

                Helga Dørumsgaard hadde visst skrevet et dikt om dette.
                Så jeg kjenner bare litt til det som skjedde i Skedsmo.
                Min morfar tok meg aldri med dit.

                Men svært lite kjenner jeg til det som har skjedd i Flatanger.
                Bjørn Ribsskog er liksom slektsforskning-eksperten, og i Ribsskog-slekten på farssiden vel.

                Så han er kanskje riktig person å kontakte om dette.
                Siden han sendte rundt noen skriv, til alle i Ribsskog-slekten, rundt årtusenskiftet vel.

                (Husker jeg at bestemor Ingeborg viste meg, da jeg besøkte henne, i Nevlunghavn).

                Så kanskje Bjørn Ribsskog veit mye mer enn meg.
                Hans e-post adresse er isfall:

                Mange takk for hyggelige Facebook-meldinger!

                Tusen takk. Jeg har slekttreet på slektprogrammet mitt så jeg skal prøve å ta kontakt med Bjørn. Jeg kjenner veldig lite til Flatanger etter min oldemor Grete har flyttet til Åfjord i Fosen og giftet seg med min oldefar som kom derfra. De fikk 12 barn. Juliane har fått bare to døtre, Grete og Emma så vidt jeg vet.

                Vi er femmenning hvis alt stemmer.

                Mvh Heidi..

                Erik Ribsskog

                Ok,
                Jeg har vært på militærøvelse, på Fosen, da jeg var i Geværkompaniet.
                Husker det var mye regn, vind, hagl og snø.

                Dette var høsten 1992.

                Det var også fint nordlys.
                Vi gikk fra en campingplass og til travbanen på Ørlandet.
                Jeg meldte meg frivillig til å bo i gapahuk.

                Sammen med en offiser og en soldat-kollega ved navn Frisell fra Drøbak vel.
                Siden jeg var lei av å gå etter noen barnslige folk på kanonlaget.

                Dette ble avlyst, og vi gikk gjennom skogen, til travbanen.

                Jeg kjøpte en vaffel med brunost til Frisell, på travbanen, siden han måtte bære en tung radio.

                Har også møtt ei ung og pen trønderdame, som studerte på LIPA, da jeg trengte på Adelphi hotell, her i Liverpool.

                Men husker ikke navnet.
                Har jobba sammen med en trønder i Rimi, som het Njål Kristinansen.

                Jeg begynte å studere igjen, i 2002, og jobba som låseansvarlig på Rimi Bjørndal, sommeren 2002.
                Njål Kristiansen stakk opp til Trøndelag, etter at butikksjef Irene Ottesen, (som har sagt hu har jobba i Bunnpris, i Trøndelag, til meg, i 1996), dro på ferie.

                Så jeg måtte jobbe både sein og dagvakter, i mange uker.
                Jeg likte ikke sjefene over meg i systemet, i Rimi, så jeg gjorde heller det, enn å ringe de.

                Har også chatta med en trønder ved navn Thorstein Bjørnstad, på irc.

                Han sendte mye South Park-episoder og musikkfiler, fra Trondheim til Oslo.
                Var op på #quiz-show, på irc, så kjenner ei NTNU-dame med nicket Laly, såvidt.

                Jeg har en yngre søster, ved navn Pia Ribsskog, som jobber som sekretær, i forbundet for utviklingshemmede.
                Og en yngre halvbror, Axel Thomassen, som er utdannet kokk.

                Hans far Arne Thormod Thomassen, var min stefar, i Larvik.
                Men han dro oss aldri med opp til Nordland, hvor han var fra.
                Men jeg vet at Axel var med han opp dit, en jul, et år, som jeg leide et rom, av Arne Thomassen og Mette Holter, mens jeg jobba, for å spare penger, til videre studier, ved NHI, på begynnelsen av 90-tallet.

                Men jeg møtte aldri selv noen av Arne Thomassen sine nordnorske slektninger.
                Min mor Karen døde i 1999.
                Hu har en yngre søster, Ellen Savoldelli f. Ribsskog, som bodde i Sveits, på 70, 80 og 90-tallet.

                Så jeg kjenner henne mest fra et besøk, som Pia og jeg var på hos henne, som tenåringer, i Sveits, sommeren 1987.
                (Da faren vår sendte oss ned dit, må jeg vel si).

                Mora mi sin bror Martin var en slags attpåklatt, som var fjorten år, da jeg var fire år, og vi bodde i Østre Halsen, i Larvik.
                Martin fikk sjokolademelk, men ikke jeg.

                Så Martin litt som en bortskjemt attpåklatt da, (må man vel si).
                Jeg bodde hos han på hans samboer Grete Ingebrigtsen sin gård, i noen måneder, den første tiden, etter at jeg overhørte, at jeg var forfulgt, av mafian, (dette var i 2005).

                Det finnes også en slags Ribsskog-frøken i Melsomvik, i Vestfold, som kontakta meg på Facebook, ifjor.
                Hu heter Sophie Ribsskog Johanneson, og hadde kanskje syntes det var artig, å høre fra slekt, fra Trøndelag.

                Men jeg prøvde å få henne til å hjelpe meg, å få arven min, etter bestemor Ingeborg.
                (Som min tante Ellen, onkel Martin og søster Pia tuller med, må jeg nok si).

                Men det ville visst ikke hu i Melsomvik.
                Så jeg kutta henne ut.
                For hva er poenget med slektninger i Vestfold hvis de ikke kan kontakte en sorenskriver i Norge for en, liksom).

                Men men.
                Jeg er jo en ungkar i England, så jeg skjønner at det ikke er så artig å høre om mine sex-historier med dundrete Ranheim-damer osv.

                Så skjønner det hvis du skriver det til noen andre jeg har nevnt nå, istedet.

                Mvh.

                Hei,
                ok, det visste jeg ikke.
                Jeg har ei kusine, som er døv.
                Nemlig Lene Olsen.

                Hu er datter av min fars yngre bror Håkon Mogan Olsen.

                Etter at jeg flytta til min far, så måtte jeg passe Lene, (da vi var sånn 10-11 år gamle vel), mens foreldra hennes var på ferie, på Rhodos, vel.

                Og jeg gikk på døvekurs, hos Lene, mens jeg gikk på ungdomsskolen.
                Og var på besøk på døveskolen i Holmestrand.
                Pia bodde hos Haldis, (min fars nye dame), og Pia og Haldis sin datter Christell var også med på døvekurset.

                De øvde seg i mellom, og ble mye flinkere enn meg, som stort sett bare fikk med meg døve-alfabetet.
                Jeg konsentrerte meg om ungdomsskolen, liksom.

                Pia sa at Lene ble døv fordi at Håkon satt henne foran stereoanlegget, som barn.

                Og Christell sa en gang på 90-tallet, at Lene sine døve kjæreste, var slem mot Lene.

                (Noe sånt).

                Pia sa noen år seinere, at Lenes far Håkon, hadde blitt tiltalt, for å misbruke ungene, til Lene.
                Så det er bare sorgen, i vår slekt.

                Min danske mormor, var fra adelige og sånn, da.

                Og min mor arvet en ring, etter Holger baron Adeler, på 70-tallet.
                Og en av mine danske tippoldemødre, het Maren Gjedde.

                Og hennes sønn, (Anders Gjedde Nyholm), var en slags forsvarssjef, i Danmark.
                Maren Gjedde var gift med hofjægermester L.C. Nyholm.

                Jeg fikk en gang et flott sølvølkrus, av min mormor, som var fra 1700-tallet vel, som han eide.

                Men tingene mine er hos City Self Storage, i Oslo, så jeg får ikke tak i dem.

                For jeg er fattig arbeidsledig, i England.

                Og jeg har også mine HV-ting der, (AG3 osv), så det er litt komplisert kanskje, å sende dette til England.
                Mtt hoved-slektsforsknings-nettested, ble kapret, for et par år siden.

                Men jeg har de nærmeste forgjengerne mine, på et nytt nettsted nå, (men jeg har ikke fått brukt så mye tid nå, som på det forrige, hvor det gikk tilbake til Odin, osv, siden Mary Eva Carla Fog, (min tippoldemor i Danmark), var etter Løvenbalk, og danske konger, og Odin osv):

                http://johncons-mirror.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/na-har-jeg-publisert-om-mine-forfedre.html

                Men noen er nevnt i den linken.
                Anker Heegaard er en kjent dansk industriherre, (og min tipptippoldefar).
                Og Heegaard i Danmark, har penger, sa min mormor, en gang, før hu døde.

                Men de hjelper meg ikke nå, (enda de er direktører osv., i Danmark).
                De svarer ikke engang på mine e-poster.
                Men jeg har jo drevet litt med slektsforskning.

                Og sett litt i kirkebøker, (men ikke mye).
                Jeg kan fylle inn mer, i den linken ovenfor nå.
                Mora til Johannes Olsen Ribsskog.

                Det var vel hu Gulla Olsdatter vel.
                Og faren var vel Ole Olsen.
                Og faren til Marta Maria Klemetsdatter Høstland.

                Han må jo ha hett Klemet.

                Men hva het mora til Marta Maria Klemetsdatter Høstland?
                Står det noe sted i alt virrvarret nå tro?

                Sender også med et ark jeg har skrevet noe av slektsforskningen min på, (selv om jeg gjorde mye annet arbeid, som jeg nesten må anse som tapt, da mitt My Heritage-nettsted, ble hacket og kapret, for et par år siden, og My Heritage vil ikke gi meg dette tilbake, av en eller annen grunn.

                Men Geni, (som du vel brukte, mener jeg å huske at du skrev), er vel kanskje bedre på kundeservice, osv.
                Det er mulig.
                Grete Ingebrigtsen, (Martins samboer), bor jo nå i Østfold igjen.

                De bodde i Askim før de flytta til Vestfold.
                Hvor jeg ble forsøkt drept, på Løvås gård, i Kvelde, i 2005.
                Og Grete har blant annet to døtre, som også er finsk-russiske, nemlig Andrea og Isa.

                Faren til Grete er visst i etteretning, eller noe.
                Noe sånt.
                Og Andrea studerer i England, (så hu har flytta etter meg, til England), men svarer ikke, når jeg kontakter henne, på Facebook.

                Isa bor i Fredrikstad-området vel, nå.
                Og hu truer meg med at hu har en Bandios-kjæreste, som skal ta meg, siden jeg skriver en blogg, om alt som har skjedd.

                Så det er bare krøll, i slekta mi, må jeg si.
                Så hyggelig å høre fra noen ordentlige trøndere.
                Det er helt sikkert.

                Nå skal jeg på McDonalds og kjøpe meg en burger, tenkte jeg.

                Jeg har ikke råd til chips.
                For jeg skulle på påskeferie, til Isle og Man, men ble nekta av kapteinen på ferja, å være med.

                Siden noen hadde sendt en tulle-epost i mitt navn, til ferjeselskapet.
                Og kapteinen likte ikke min blogg.
                Briter er rare.

                De tror de skjønner en norsk blogg.
                Og så tar de biter av det jeg har skrevet, og blåser det opp, og får meg til å virke som en galning.

                De tror de skjønner alt som andre folk skriver på sitt språk, siden de har hatt kolonier i Afrika, osv.

                Noe sånt.
                Men sannheten er at bare skjønner halvparten kanskje, og dikter opp resten selv, på en måte som passer de, eller hva man skal si.

                (Jeg har en arbeidssak mot et engelsk firma, nemlig.
                Så da tuller kanskje briter ekstra mye.
                Hva vet jeg).

                Men jeg har ikke spist middag enda i dag.

                Så jeg får heller svare seinere i kveld, eller i morgen, hvis jeg får noen fler skriverier nå.
                Men det var artig å høre fra noen slektninger.

                Min fars slekt har kalt meg ‘person non gratia’ nå.
                Og jeg vil også kutte de ut, etter at min far lot meg bo alene, som barn.

                Og tante Ellen dyrka marijuana, i hagen sin i Sveits, osv.

                Så jeg har noen unger liksom, (Ellen og Martin og Pia og Axel), på min mors side, av slektning.

                Og min fars side har kutta ut meg, og jeg har kutta ut dem.

                Så det er egentlig helt tragisk, når det gjelder slekta mi.
                Så det er litt derfor at jeg skriver blogg og driver med slektsforskning, osv.

                Da jeg bodde i Oslo, så var jeg ikke så utadvendt, og var ikke interessert i å ha blogg.
                Men jeg lurer på nå hva som foregår, siden jeg ikke får arv og rettigheter, osv.

                Så jeg driver nå med blogg og slektsforskning og andre prosjekter, blant annet bøker, som er på Scribd og bloggen min, blant annet.
                Igjen takk for Facebook-meldinger.

                Mvh.

                Har hørt navnet Lene Olsen før, men hvor kommer hun fra?? Nysgjerrig..
                Jeg kjenner mange døve som gikk på Døveskolen i Holmestrand.. Men jeg gikk på Døveskolen i Tr.heim.. Litt artig at du har lært alfabetet.. Du fortalte så mye som jeg klarer ikke å konstentere alt her.. he he.. Men skal se på din slektreet.

                Jeg har begge med myhartige og geni, men bruker mye med eget slektprogrammet som heter Brothers keeper.

                Vet faktisk ikke hva heter faren til Martha Maria Klemetsdatter, men regner nok med hennes far heter Klemet..

                Heidi Kristin Ovesen

                Jeg vet hvem Lene Olsen er, kommer fra Oslo.. Var sammen med kjæresten Geir (ikke felles Deres barn) som jeg kjenner godt. Vi har felles venner her. Han er veldig snill mann jeg kjenner så vidt jeg vet.. Vi treffer av og til…
              • 20:53

                Erik Ribsskog

                Lene Olsen har vokst opp på Bergeråsen, i Svelvik, i Vestfold.
                Bor nå i Drammens-distriktet et sted vel.
                Jeg chatter ikke med henne, for det er familieproblemer.

                Lene hadde mange døve venninner, på besøk, på døvekurs-dagene.
                Men jeg husker ikke navna lenger.
                Husker en tøff døv gutt, fra da vi var på døveskolen, i Holmestrand.

                Da fikk jeg litt sjokk, for jeg trodde ikke at døve kunne være tøffe og barske, liksom.
                Men men.
                Jeg tror nok at jeg kan finne navnet på mora til Marta Maria Klemetsdatter Ribsskog f. Høstland, hvis jeg kikker litt, i kirkebøkene, på nettet, for Flatanger.

                (Hvis jeg forstår preste-skriften).
                Skrev litt på Facebook med ei trønder-Høstland-frøken med tyrkisk kjæreste, for to-tre år siden, (hu som sa at Ribsskogen og Høstlandet var nabostedet, i Flatanger):

                Ja kanskje Lene har fått ny kjæreste nå.
                Du får hilse.
                Lene var på søskenbarn-fest hos meg, i Oslo, (på Ungbo, hvor jeg bodde, og lot Pia bo, siden hu var hjemløs).

                Dette var i 1994, vel.
                Og det endte tragisk, siden vår fetter Ove, fikk bank, av en Oslo-kjempe, som prøvde å selge han blomster, bak Stortingen, da vi skulle ta nattbussen hjem.

                Jeg var også i Lene sin lillebror Tommy, sitt bryllup, i Fredrikstad, i 2002.
                Men har ikke sett Lene og Tommy, etter dette.

                Det blir vanskelig siden Ove har sagt at jeg er ‘person non gratia’.

                Og dette var også undertegnet av Lene sin far, (og min far og Ove sin far), sånn som det virka som, for meg.

                Hu Høstland-frøkna het Cecilie Høstland, og hu skulle spørre mora si, om noe slektsforskning-greier.
                Men så hørte jeg ikke mer.

                Mvh.

                Erik Ribsskog
                PS.
                Her er mer om hu Høstland-dama, (sist i denne linken):

                PS 2.
                Nettet går litt treigt her, så jeg ser det dukker opp flere meldinger mens jeg skriver.
                Har bare mobilt bredbånd nå, men har bestilt vanlig bredbånd, som jeg skal få seinere denne uka.

                Så da går det kanskje litt raskere å skrive her og.
                Vi får se.

                Hi,

                I didn’t get on the ferry to Isle of Man, today, (Saturday), because of problems, at the Ferry-terminal.

                When I went in there, two guys from SGI, (a security-company), wanted to look in my bag.

                On guy was unshawen and the other guy had greasy hair.

                So I thought these could have been criminals that wanted to steal my bag.

                But on guy showed me his ID, and he worked for ‘SIA’ it said, and his name was Mr. Morton, (the unshaven guy), or something.

                The Police was also there.

                (I don’t know if the ferry company called them).

                SIA was happy with me to go with the ferry.

                But then the captain, (John?), told me I couldn’t go, because of something on my blog, taken out of context.

                And someone had sent him a e-mail-threats, in my name, (he said).

                (He had a printed e-mail there that was folded, so I don’t know who sent it).

                A Police officer with number ‘8156’.

                Wondered if I could close down my blog, since someone sends threatening e-mails all the time, in my name.

                But there’s something called freedom of speach, isn’t it?

                So I just said I could close it if I wanted to.

                (But that would be to give in to terror, I think).

                The Police officer told me to tell them if I knew who sent the e-mail, (in my name).

                I said I’ll do that.

                But that’s really their job to find out, isn’t it?

                Seems the Police want’s to have a ‘cowboy-image’ and are afraid to be called nerds, and therefore don’t want to investigate e-mail-crime.

                Something like this.

                I used to work out at the Adelphi hotel in Liverpool, after a collegue, (Karianne), recomended this hotel for working out, (when we worked at Arvato, in the Cunard Building).

                So I thought Adelphi seemed fine, at the Isle of Man.

                I thought you perhaps had the same owners, (or something), you see.

                I send a copy e-mail to my lawyer since someone make my life hell, by sending fake e-mails in my name.

                I just thought I’d go at an Easter Holiday to Isle of Man, and have a look at the Thynwald etc, (with the viking-ship-flag), to get away a bit, since I haven’t been out of England, since 2005.

                But unfortunately, due to the ferry company, this wasn’t possible.

                But I didn’t want to argue, with the captain.

                (After September 11th etc., I don’t think one should do that).

                So I just said I would celebrated Easter at home, and left the ferry-terminal, (but I had to chat with the Police-offer, while I went out of the ‘ferry-company-area’.

                Sorry that I didn’t explain earlier why I didn’t go to get the room, that I’d book.

                But I thought this scene was very embarrasing, so I thought I had to go and drink some lager, before I went home.

                The Police-officer also wanted to know where I lived, so I wondered a bit if Police would be on my door, when I got home, so I went and had some pints, because I had had enough embarasment for one day.

                Sorry about this!

                Best regards,

                Erik Ribsskog

                Hi,

                ok.

                At least it’s still possible to buy water at Sainsbury’s.

                (Unlike at Aldi, where I was refused this).

                And I have to shop somewhere.


                So I’ll just wait and see, and perhaps your problem with ‘Gremlins’ will be better, in the future.


                We’ll see.

                Thanks for the e-mail!

                Regards,

                Hi,

                I know I’ve asked you to escalate.

                But I was in your shop in Rice Lane again now, and I thought it was a bit intimidating, that your big African security-guard, and three Sainsbury-staff, (it seemed), were standing in a group, in the middle of the shop, without saying anything, (but just observing).


                I’ve seen aomething similar at Tesco.


                (The Superstore in Liverpool One).


                A group of managers in suits, motivate some other staff, outside of the fresh-food-department.


                But your managers didn’t say anything.


                And I went back to buy a bottle of water, that was also on my shopping-list, and then these people didn’t stand around in the shop, (without doing anything), any longer.


                This seemed almost militant, to me, and a bit intimidating, really.


                It reminded me about an episode at Aldi, earlier this week.


                They also had an African security-guard, and two or three other staff standing that close to me, discussing that they were sold out of 0.5 litre water-bottles.


                You also had a young ‘retard’ and his two parents there.


                Like it was also at Aldi, that mentioned day, a bit older retard, in one of their slow moving queues.


                And when I went out of the shop the second time, a Sainsbury-woman started screaming to a collegue, to buy her water.

                (When I was just purchasing a water-bottle, in the self-service check-outs).


                Your shop is almost a bit weird, I think.


                Have you read about the Aldi-episode, on my blog?

                Are you doing some kind of wicka-stuff, I’m wondering.

                Are you monitoring me in your shop?

                There has also been a similar episode, where you were monitoring the customers, (like I’ve complained about).


                Are you monitoring the custommers?

                And why only when I’m in the shop, it seems.


                This seems very odd to me.


                Please escalate this complaints with my other complaints, (like I wrote to you, earlier today).

                Erik Ribsskog

                Hi,

                I understand that this was escalated to you.


                But I’ve asked to please get this escalated again.

                I can’t see that you’ve done this.

                Dear Mr Ribsskog

                Thanks for your email.  I’m sorry you’re unhappy with our previous responses.  I can confirm that I’m a senior customer manager and this has been escalated to myself.

                We want to make our customers shopping trips as convenient as possible and we introduced our self checkouts as an efficient and speedy alternative to manned checkouts.  However, we recognise that they are not ideal for all our customers and we aim to provide a choice, which includes opening more manned checkouts for our customers who prefer them.  You certainly should not feel pressured into using these tills.


                We have a TRY promise were if you’re unhappy with any of our own brand products, you can get a full refund by taking the packaging and receipt to the customer service desk in any store.  If you could reply with more information on the chicken steaks you’re referring to, I can investigate this further.  Ideally if you have any information on the packaging, I can log this with our buyers.

                I’ve called our Rice Lane store and spoken to my colleague, Kim Tingsley, the Customer Service Supervisor.  Kim advised that there was a problem with one of the bank terminals in the store.  Although the banks aren’t managed by the store, this was reported immediately and has since been fixed.  I appreciate you’d like more information on this but as the banks are managed externally, we’re unable to provide any more information.

                Kim wasn’t aware of any problems with the self service checkouts.  If you could reply confirming which date you entered the store and what was wrong with the tills and also more information on the antennas you mentioned, I can investigate this further with the store.  I appreciate these issues have been going on for some time.  If you could reply with your contact number, we’d be happy to call you in order to resolve these for you.

                We’re grateful that you’ve taken the time to contact us and look forward to your response.

                Kind regards

                Hi,

                ok, and how about the awkward self-service-tills?

                Have you gotten a lot of complaints about them?

                And the antennas for Christmas.


                Am I the only one who have complained?

                And the chicken-steaks aren’t that delicous, I think.

                Has this really been escalated now, by the way?

                How can you explain two ‘Gremlin-attacks’ in a few days, in this shop?

                (The problem with the bank-terminals and the six self-service tills).


                I think it’s bad custommer support that you don’t explain to me, what was wrong, with the bank-terminal.


                One single phone-call.

                How hard can this be?

                This seems very strange to me.


                It’s like you don’t really try, I think.

                I’ve asked to escalate this.


                I can’t see that that has really happened.


                So I try again.

                Thanks for your email.  I’m sorry that you were unhappy with your trip to our Rice Lane store.  I can understand your disappointment as you saw some of the behaviour as a “provocation”.

                It is never our intent for our customers to feel awkward in store, we wish for our customers to enjoy their shopping experience.  Our security guards patrol for the safety of all our customers and are not there to provoke anybody.  I apologise that a colleague moved your basket without asking. I have passed your comments onto management who appreciate all customer feedback.

                Hi,

                I’m just back, after shopping at Farmfoods and Sainsbury’s.

                At Sainsbury’s a Securitas-guard patroled right in front of me, when I walked in to the shop.


                I thought that was almost like a provocation.

                (This was your Rice Lane shop, as usual).

                Also, in the self-service till, a Sainsbury-woman, (quite big), in her 40’s, suddently started lifting on my basket, to get to a basket, which was underneath mine.

                (From the custommer before me).


                I’ve seen at Asda.


                At the self-service tills there.


                That a sing says: ‘Always explain the intervention’.


                Your staff didn’t do this.


                She made me almost get a shock, I think I have to say.


                This was like something that could only have happened in Russia.


                I brought my own basket back to the entrance-area, (around where the Security-guard was).

                And it was no shortage of baskets there.


                So I think I have to call this a basket-case.


                Why do your staff act like they’re trained in Russia?

                This was like a provocation, I think.


                You should learn from Asda, which are owned by Wal-Mart, which is an American company.

                Also,  (unilke Asda, Tesco, etc), the self service tills in this shop.


                (Sainsbury’s Rice Lane).


                They are aqwardly placed.


                The carrier-bags are placed to far away from the custommers, I think.

                I think your better at own brand tinned food, than Asda.


                But you just forget my complaints about your noodles, (own brand), which tastes like dish-washing-water, I think.


                (Something like this).


                In your last e-mail.

                There’s no excuse for ignorance, a saying, (here in the UK), says.


                But I don’t think you’ve heard that saying.

                So I want to escalate all the complaints I’ve sent you, please.


                Also, your mashed potatoes, smell bad, which isn’t the case, with Asda’s own-label mashed potatoes.

                And Aldi are better at chicken-steaks, I think.

                Also, you don’t have the chicken-nuggets, (own label), which costs around 70 pence, that Tesco and Asda have.

                I wanted to please escalate all the complaints I’ve sent you, please.

                Hi,

                also, at Christmas, your quite old femal staff with blonde hair.


                In the check-out.


                (I bought so much food for Christmas that I used a trolley and went to the manual check-out).


                She had to have antennas on her, since it was Christmas, it seemed.

                She was almost crying, from this ridiculus costume, it seemed to me.


                It reminded me of when I worked as an assistant manager, at Rimi Bjørndal, in Norway, from 1996 to 1998.


                The Store Manager Kristian Kvehaugen said the check-out-staff had to wear santa-caps.

                But the Marocco-girl, in the check-out, took her red santa head-cap of all the time.

                But your staff didn’t do this.

                So it was a bit like a shop from Mars, last Christmas, I think.

                Also your chicken-steaks, for £1.15, doesn’t taste that delicous, I think.

                Hi,

                is your head-office in Moscow or something?

                Your reply just look like a mess to me.

                Those higher managers, (or what they were), were definetly just standing around.


                I know what I saw, I’m an experienced retail-manager, who has worked for almost a lifetime in retail.


                You just invent a reply, it seems to me.


                I have no confidence in you due to this.

                These people weren’t even in uniform/work-clothes.


                Even if that isn’t isn’t reflected in your reply, I think.

                Also, Sainsbury’s low-priced noodles, doesn’t taste good.


                And Sainsbury’s low-priced potato-mash smells bad, I think.

                (I tried it last week-end, but I just threw it, due to the smell, I have to admit).

                Good luck with the Moscowits, Marsians and Gremlins.

                Dear Mr Ribsskog

                Thank you for your further email.

                As detailed in my response of 2 March, your comments have been escalated to me as Senior Manager within Careline.  

                In this reply I detailed our final response to the incident in out Rice Lane store on 14 February relating to the inability to process your card payment.  Equally this was addressed in my colleague Katrina Dicks reply on 4 March.

                Similarly in my reply of 2 March I detailed the reason our self scan checkouts where not functioning on your visit to the store. Although it may have appeared my colleagues in store were simply standing around, I assure you this was not the case.

                The extensive detail provided in each of these responses, and those previously sent by my team, provide our final answer on these points. I hope you can use the information provided and I have explained actions of my colleagues in store.

                 

                Kind regards

                Hi,

                I’ve sent to your college, Katarina Dick, about this, earlier this week.

                (And asked her to escalate).


                So this is being dealt with already, I think I have to say.


                Regards,


                Erik Ribsskog

                PS.


                Here is more about this:

                Hi,

                ok, I think it’s strange that all your machines doesn’t seem to work.

                It was also a problem with your bank-terminal, at this shop, the week before, (I think it was).

                (Like I have discussed with your college Ajay Chand, like one can see, in one of the forwarded e-mails, with this e-mail).

                A bank-terminal that refuses to let people pay by card, when they have money, on their account.

                That must be pretty rear, I think.

                And that this store also have a group of six self-service tills, that doesn’t work, the next week.

                (Which I haven’t seen in any other store.

                And these tills have been around since 2005, at least, I remember.

                Because I saw them that year, at a big Sainsbury’s in Kensington, in London, where I lived for a couple of weeks, that year).

                So this seems very strange to me.

                It’s like an invasion of Gremlins, I think.

                And how about the group of higher managers, which were standing in between the two groups of self-service tills, on the mentioned Wednesday, (the ones who were monitoring me and the other custommers), do you have an explanation for this?

                Have you had problems with an invasion from Mars?

                I think it must have been something like this, since there has been so much strange ‘stuff’ going on in your store.

                Due to that there have been many problems, I would have wanted to escalate about this, please.

                It has been so much problems with the food-industry lately, (with the horse-meat-scandal etc), so I think this should be on a higher level in your organisation.

                It’s a problem with the whole industry, a lefleat I saw today at Tesco says.

                So due to this I want to escalate, please.

                Dear Mr Ribsskog

                Thanks for your email and the further information you provided.  I’m sorry to learn you’re unhappy with our response.

                As advised in our previous emails, if a card if declined in store we’re unable to establish the reason for this.  The instruction to decline the card comes direct from the card provider.  As I’m sure you can appreciate, we need to act on such requests.  

                The only way to resolve this is to contact your card provider.  They’ll be able to carry out a full investigation and establish the reason the card was declined.  Unfortunately, we’re unable to do this on your behalf.  

                Your card provider wouldn’t be able to provide us with any of this information.  This would constitute a breach of the Data Protection Act.  Your card provider will only be able to discuss this with you.  I’m sorry we’re not able to assist you further.  

                We appreciate you’ve taken the time to contact us again and hope you’re able to get this resolved soon.

                Hi,

                like I wrote in the first e-mail about this problem.

                If it was a problem with the connection, then the bank-terminals in Norway, more than twenty years ago, wrote a receipt, which was almost like a cheque, for the custommer to sign.


                The amount would then take a bit longer time, (a couple of days, I think we told the custommers), to be withdrawn, from the custommers’ bank-accounts.

                So is the UK more than 20 years behind Norway, when it comes to this?

                This doesn’t seem likely, to me.

                I wonder if there have been some ‘Gremlins’ here, messing with my account.


                I think it’s poor custommer-service, that you don’t investigate what has happened here.


                I have also gone to business-school, and learned that the custommer is always right.

                I think the UK is poor on custommer-service.


                You should learn from the USA, I think.

                It doesn’t seem you have a custommer-service attitude, (towards custommers), here in the UK.

As requested your correspondence has been escalated to me.

                Our customers experience is important to us.  We expect our customers to have the best service possible and it is disappointing to us that this has not been your experience.

                As you mention your card was then accepted on the second attempt, it may be there was a temporary error with the connection from your card supplier. To this end we would request you follow the guidance offered by my colleagues and contact your card provider for further information.

                I appreciate this was not the answer you were hoping for but I must stress that my colleagues have guided you correctly through all stages of your contact with us.  I hope you can speak with you banking group and source the answer you require.

                Hi,

                thank you for your e-mail!

                I think that since this was something that happened, in your store, then you have a responsibility, to help finding out what has happened.


                I think it’s poor custommer-support, that I have to go in the bank, and ask them, what has happened.


                I’ve sent you the recepts and all, so this is something you could find out, I think.

                You are just being lazy here, it seems to me.


                Dear I ask to get this escalated again?

                Hi,

                I’ve worked as a store manager myself in Norway.


                And if I had gotten a complaint like that, I would have called the company which runs the bank-terminals, and asked them what the problem was.

                So this wasn’t good custommer-support, I think.


                Can I escalate this to your line-manager, please?

                I’ve contacted the Rice lane store and discussed this with Nicola Edwards, the Customer Services Desk.  She’s asked me to send her apologies and was disappointed to hear of your experience.  She’s advised when a card is declined in store we aren’t able to establish the reason.  There can be several factors which can cause this for example the merchant provider may be down.

                Hi,

                thank you for your e-mail!

                I don’t think it could have been the card-provider, that the problem was with.


                Because like one can see, on the recepits, that I attach copies of.


                The card worked again, a minute after if first had been refused.

                So it was just a temporarely problem, it seems.


                But like I wrote to you earlier, I’ve worked full time, as a cashier, for almost a year, at OBS Triaden, in Norway.

                And this was in 1990/91.


                But we had bank-terminals, in every other till.

                And even 20 years ago, this didn’t happen.


                If the bank terminals were off-line, then the custommer was told to sign a recepit, and this was then like a cheque, more or less.


                So I think it’s to bad, that this worked in Norway, 20 years ago.


                But it doesn’t work in the UK, today.

                I know there is a company, in-between you and the banks.

                (I know, because I’ve also worked as a retail manager in Norway, for ten years, in the Rimi-chain, owned by ICA).

                So I think it could be some ‘Gremlins’ there perhaps.

                This company was called ‘Bank Accept’, (or something), in Norway.

                You probably have an equivalent, (to Bank Accept), here in the UK.


                So I send again about this.


                Perhaps you could escalate this to your line-manager.

                Hi,

                I know I’ve asked you to escalate.
                But I was in your shop in Rice Lane again now, and I thought it was a bit intimidating, that your big African security-guard, and three Sainsbury-staff, (it seemed), were standing in a group, in the middle of the shop, without saying anything, (but just observing).


                I’ve seen aomething similar at Tesco.

                (The Superstore in Liverpool One).

                A group of managers in suits, motivate some other staff, outside of the fresh-food-department.

                But your managers didn’t say anything.


                And I went back to buy a bottle of water, that was also on my shopping-list, and then these people didn’t stand around in the shop, (without doing anything), any longer.

                This seemed almost militant, to me, and a bit intimidating, really.

                It reminded me about an episode at Aldi, earlier this week.

                They also had an African security-guard, and two or three other staff standing that close to me, discussing that they were sold out of 0.5 litre water-bottles.


                You also had a young ‘retard’ and his two parents there.

                Like it was also at Aldi, that mentioned day, a bit older retard, in one of their slow moving queues.

                And when I went out of the shop the second time, a Sainsbury-woman started screaming to a collegue, to buy her water.

                (When I was just purchasing a water-bottle, in the self-service check-outs).

                Your shop is almost a bit weird, I think.

                Have you read about the Aldi-episode, on my blog?

                Are you doing some kind of wicka-stuff, I’m wondering.

                Are you monitoring me in your shop?

                There has also been a similar episode, where you were monitoring the customers, (like I’ve complained about).


                Are you monitoring the custommers?
                And why only when I’m in the shop, it seems.

                This seems very odd to me.

                Please escalate this complaints with my other complaints, (like I wrote to you, earlier today).

                Hi,

                I understand that this was escalated to you.

                But I’ve asked to please get this escalated again.
                I can’t see that you’ve done this.

                Dear Mr Ribsskog

                Thanks for your email.  I’m sorry you’re unhappy with our previous responses.  I can confirm that I’m a senior customer manager and this has been escalated to myself.

                We want to make our customers shopping trips as convenient as possible and we introduced our self checkouts as an efficient and speedy alternative to manned checkouts.  However, we recognise that they are not ideal for all our customers and we aim to provide a choice, which includes opening more manned checkouts for our customers who prefer them.  You certainly should not feel pressured into using these tills.


                We have a TRY promise were if you’re unhappy with any of our own brand products, you can get a full refund by taking the packaging and receipt to the customer service desk in any store.  If you could reply with more information on the chicken steaks you’re referring to, I can investigate this further.  Ideally if you have any information on the packaging, I can log this with our buyers.

                I’ve called our Rice Lane store and spoken to my colleague, Kim Tingsley, the Customer Service Supervisor.  Kim advised that there was a problem with one of the bank terminals in the store.  Although the banks aren’t managed by the store, this was reported immediately and has since been fixed.  I appreciate you’d like more information on this but as the banks are managed externally, we’re unable to provide any more information.

                Kim wasn’t aware of any problems with the self service checkouts.  If you could reply confirming which date you entered the store and what was wrong with the tills and also more information on the antennas you mentioned, I can investigate this further with the store.  I appreciate these issues have been going on for some time.  If you could reply with your contact number, we’d be happy to call you in order to resolve these for you.

                We’re grateful that you’ve taken the time to contact us and look forward to your response.

                Kind regards

                Hi,

                ok, and how about the awkward self-service-tills?

                Have you gotten a lot of complaints about them?

                And the antennas for Christmas.


                Am I the only one who have complained?

                And the chicken-steaks aren’t that delicous, I think.

                Has this really been escalated now, by the way?

                How can you explain two ‘Gremlin-attacks’ in a few days, in this shop?

                (The problem with the bank-terminals and the six self-service tills).


                I think it’s bad custommer support that you don’t explain to me, what was wrong, with the bank-terminal.


                One single phone-call.

                How hard can this be?

                This seems very strange to me.


                It’s like you don’t really try, I think.

                I’ve asked to escalate this.


                I can’t see that that has really happened.


                So I try again.

                Thanks for your email.  I’m sorry that you were unhappy with your trip to our Rice Lane store.  I can understand your disappointment as you saw some of the behaviour as a “provocation”.

                It is never our intent for our customers to feel awkward in store, we wish for our customers to enjoy their shopping experience.  Our security guards patrol for the safety of all our customers and are not there to provoke anybody.  I apologise that a colleague moved your basket without asking. I have passed your comments onto management who appreciate all customer feedback.

                We’re grateful to you for taking the time to contact us and we look forward to seeing you again shortly.

                Hi,

                I’m just back, after shopping at Farmfoods and Sainsbury’s.

                At Sainsbury’s a Securitas-guard patroled right in front of me, when I walked in to the shop.


                I thought that was almost like a provocation.

                (This was your Rice Lane shop, as usual).

                Also, in the self-service till, a Sainsbury-woman, (quite big), in her 40’s, suddently started lifting on my basket, to get to a basket, which was underneath mine.

                (From the custommer before me).


                I’ve seen at Asda.


                At the self-service tills there.


                That a sing says: ‘Always explain the intervention’.


                Your staff didn’t do this.


                She made me almost get a shock, I think I have to say.


                This was like something that could only have happened in Russia.


                I brought my own basket back to the entrance-area, (around where the Security-guard was).

                And it was no shortage of baskets there.


                So I think I have to call this a basket-case.


                Why do your staff act like they’re trained in Russia?

                This was like a provocation, I think.


                You should learn from Asda, which are owned by Wal-Mart, which is an American company.

                Also,  (unilke Asda, Tesco, etc), the self service tills in this shop.


                (Sainsbury’s Rice Lane).


                They are aqwardly placed.


                The carrier-bags are placed to far away from the custommers, I think.

                I think your better at own brand tinned food, than Asda.


                But you just forget my complaints about your noodles, (own brand), which tastes like dish-washing-water, I think.


                (Something like this).


                In your last e-mail.

                There’s no excuse for ignorance, a saying, (here in the UK), says.


                But I don’t think you’ve heard that saying.

                So I want to escalate all the complaints I’ve sent you, please.


                Also, your mashed potatoes, smell bad, which isn’t the case, with Asda’s own-label mashed potatoes.

                And Aldi are better at chicken-steaks, I think.

                Also, you don’t have the chicken-nuggets, (own label), which costs around 70 pence, that Tesco and Asda have.

                I wanted to please escalate all the complaints I’ve sent you, please.

                Hi,

                also, at Christmas, your quite old femal staff with blonde hair.


                In the check-out.


                (I bought so much food for Christmas that I used a trolley and went to the manual check-out).


                She had to have antennas on her, since it was Christmas, it seemed.

                She was almost crying, from this ridiculus costume, it seemed to me.


                It reminded me of when I worked as an assistant manager, at Rimi Bjørndal, in Norway, from 1996 to 1998.


                The Store Manager Kristian Kvehaugen said the check-out-staff had to wear santa-caps.

                But the Marocco-girl, in the check-out, took her red santa head-cap of all the time.

                But your staff didn’t do this.

                So it was a bit like a shop from Mars, last Christmas, I think.

                Also your chicken-steaks, for £1.15, doesn’t taste that delicous, I think.

                Hi,

                is your head-office in Moscow or something?

                Your reply just look like a mess to me.

                Those higher managers, (or what they were), were definetly just standing around.


                I know what I saw, I’m an experienced retail-manager, who has worked for almost a lifetime in retail.


                You just invent a reply, it seems to me.


                I have no confidence in you due to this.

                These people weren’t even in uniform/work-clothes.


                Even if that isn’t isn’t reflected in your reply, I think.

                Also, Sainsbury’s low-priced noodles, doesn’t taste good.


                And Sainsbury’s low-priced potato-mash smells bad, I think.

                (I tried it last week-end, but I just threw it, due to the smell, I have to admit).

                Good luck with the Moscowits, Marsians and Gremlins.

                Dear Mr Ribsskog

                Thank you for your further email.

                As detailed in my response of 2 March, your comments have been escalated to me as Senior Manager within Careline.  

                In this reply I detailed our final response to the incident in out Rice Lane store on 14 February relating to the inability to process your card payment.  Equally this was addressed in my colleague Katrina Dicks reply on 4 March.

                Similarly in my reply of 2 March I detailed the reason our self scan checkouts where not functioning on your visit to the store. Although it may have appeared my colleagues in store were simply standing around, I assure you this was not the case.

                The extensive detail provided in each of these responses, and those previously sent by my team, provide our final answer on these points. I hope you can use the information provided and I have explained actions of my colleagues in store.

                 

                Kind regards

                Hi,

                I’ve sent to your college, Katarina Dick, about this, earlier this week.

                (And asked her to escalate).


                So this is being dealt with already, I think I have to say.


                Regards,


                Erik Ribsskog

                PS.


                Here is more about this:

                Hi,

                ok, I think it’s strange that all your machines doesn’t seem to work.

                It was also a problem with your bank-terminal, at this shop, the week before, (I think it was).

                (Like I have discussed with your college Ajay Chand, like one can see, in one of the forwarded e-mails, with this e-mail).

                A bank-terminal that refuses to let people pay by card, when they have money, on their account.

                That must be pretty rear, I think.

                And that this store also have a group of six self-service tills, that doesn’t work, the next week.

                (Which I haven’t seen in any other store.

                And these tills have been around since 2005, at least, I remember.

                Because I saw them that year, at a big Sainsbury’s in Kensington, in London, where I lived for a couple of weeks, that year).

                So this seems very strange to me.

                It’s like an invasion of Gremlins, I think.

                And how about the group of higher managers, which were standing in between the two groups of self-service tills, on the mentioned Wednesday, (the ones who were monitoring me and the other custommers), do you have an explanation for this?

                Have you had problems with an invasion from Mars?

                I think it must have been something like this, since there has been so much strange ‘stuff’ going on in your store.

                Due to that there have been many problems, I would have wanted to escalate about this, please.

                It has been so much problems with the food-industry lately, (with the horse-meat-scandal etc), so I think this should be on a higher level in your organisation.

                It’s a problem with the whole industry, a lefleat I saw today at Tesco says.

                So due to this I want to escalate, please.

                Dear Mr Ribsskog

                Thanks for your email and the further information you provided.  I’m sorry to learn you’re unhappy with our response.

                As advised in our previous emails, if a card if declined in store we’re unable to establish the reason for this.  The instruction to decline the card comes direct from the card provider.  As I’m sure you can appreciate, we need to act on such requests.  

                The only way to resolve this is to contact your card provider.  They’ll be able to carry out a full investigation and establish the reason the card was declined.  Unfortunately, we’re unable to do this on your behalf.  

                Your card provider wouldn’t be able to provide us with any of this information.  This would constitute a breach of the Data Protection Act.  Your card provider will only be able to discuss this with you.  I’m sorry we’re not able to assist you further.  

                We appreciate you’ve taken the time to contact us again and hope you’re able to get this resolved soon.

                Hi,

                like I wrote in the first e-mail about this problem.

                If it was a problem with the connection, then the bank-terminals in Norway, more than twenty years ago, wrote a receipt, which was almost like a cheque, for the custommer to sign.


                The amount would then take a bit longer time, (a couple of days, I think we told the custommers), to be withdrawn, from the custommers’ bank-accounts.

                So is the UK more than 20 years behind Norway, when it comes to this?

                This doesn’t seem likely, to me.

                I wonder if there have been some ‘Gremlins’ here, messing with my account.


                I think it’s poor custommer-service, that you don’t investigate what has happened here.


                I have also gone to business-school, and learned that the custommer is always right.

                I think the UK is poor on custommer-service.


                You should learn from the USA, I think.

                It doesn’t seem you have a custommer-service attitude, (towards custommers), here in the UK.

As requested your correspondence has been escalated to me.

                Our customers experience is important to us.  We expect our customers to have the best service possible and it is disappointing to us that this has not been your experience.

                As you mention your card was then accepted on the second attempt, it may be there was a temporary error with the connection from your card supplier. To this end we would request you follow the guidance offered by my colleagues and contact your card provider for further information.

                I appreciate this was not the answer you were hoping for but I must stress that my colleagues have guided you correctly through all stages of your contact with us.  I hope you can speak with you banking group and source the answer you require.

                Hi,

                thank you for your e-mail!

                I think that since this was something that happened, in your store, then you have a responsibility, to help finding out what has happened.


                I think it’s poor custommer-support, that I have to go in the bank, and ask them, what has happened.


                I’ve sent you the recepts and all, so this is something you could find out, I think.

                You are just being lazy here, it seems to me.


                Dear I ask to get this escalated again?

                Hi,

                I’ve worked as a store manager myself in Norway.


                And if I had gotten a complaint like that, I would have called the company which runs the bank-terminals, and asked them what the problem was.

                So this wasn’t good custommer-support, I think.


                Can I escalate this to your line-manager, please?

                Thanks for your email and further comments relating to your recent enquiry.

                I’ve contacted the Rice lane store and discussed this with Nicola Edwards, the Customer Services Desk.  She’s asked me to send her apologies and was disappointed to hear of your experience.  She’s advised when a card is declined in store we aren’t able to establish the reason.  There can be several factors which can cause this for example the merchant provider may be down.

                Hi,

                thank you for your e-mail!

                I don’t think it could have been the card-provider, that the problem was with.


                Because like one can see, on the recepits, that I attach copies of.


                The card worked again, a minute after if first had been refused.

                So it was just a temporarely problem, it seems.


                But like I wrote to you earlier, I’ve worked full time, as a cashier, for almost a year, at OBS Triaden, in Norway.

                And this was in 1990/91.


                But we had bank-terminals, in every other till.

                And even 20 years ago, this didn’t happen.


                If the bank terminals were off-line, then the custommer was told to sign a recepit, and this was then like a cheque, more or less.


                So I think it’s to bad, that this worked in Norway, 20 years ago.


                But it doesn’t work in the UK, today.

                I know there is a company, in-between you and the banks.

                (I know, because I’ve also worked as a retail manager in Norway, for ten years, in the Rimi-chain, owned by ICA).

                So I think it could be some ‘Gremlins’ there perhaps.

                This company was called ‘Bank Accept’, (or something), in Norway.

                You probably have an equivalent, (to Bank Accept), here in the UK.


                So I send again about this.


                Perhaps you could escalate this to your line-manager.

                Dear Mr Erik Ribsskog

                Thanks for your email.  I’m sorry your visa card payment was refused at our Rice Lane store on your recent visit.  I understand your disappointment as there was enough money in your bank.

                We are not aware of any faults with our card machines at the minute.  I can only recommend that you contact your card provider.

                We appreciate you taking the time to get in touch and make us aware of this and hope to see you in store soon.

                Kind regards

                User’s Comments: I was in your supermarket, in Rice Lane, in Liverpool, on Saturday, (14/2).
                My visa card payment was first refused, even if there was enough money, on the account.
                I haven’t experienced this before.
                (Even if I’ve worked for almost a lifetime, in retail, in Norway).
                Do you need the recepit-number etc., to investigate this?
