Hi,

the problem is, I don't have access to my British bank-accounts at the moment.

I've tried calling RBS several times (some months ago) to do with this.

And I've also completed an RBS online identity-check.

But I still can't get into my account.

And I haven't got a valid RBS-Visa-card, due to that I haven't been living in the UK since 2017.

So my RBS-Visa-card expired in juni 2019 (i see here).

And I have updated my address with RBS.

But they haven't sent me a new Visa-card.

And I've called them three times (after the pandemic) about this.

And RBS are still being difficult (even if Barclays told me (in 2017) that it's usual to have update Visa-cards from ones British bank-accounts, even if one live abroad).

But neighter Barclays or RBS have any branches in Norway.

So I can't just visit them (like in Liverpool etc).

So this is a bit tricky.

I wanted to have a British Visa-card (that was valid) to try to get a British PayPal-account (with credit, unlike the Norwegian accounts).

But I haven't managed to get of them British credit-PayPal-accounts yet.

But I could pay £2 a month with my Norwegian Visa-card, if you tell me the URL, where I type the card-number and CVV-number, etc.

I can start paying these token-payments from 25th September.

(If that's ok).

And then the 25th every month, untill I get a job.

Or I could pay with my Norwegian PayPal-account (if you accept PayPal-payments).

When I go on weekend-trips etc. these days, I go to Denmark, Germany or Sweden.

I don't go to the UK anymore.

Because some internet-trolls starts swatting me when I live in the UK.

And the Merseyside-police and the Liverpool law firms and the courts in Liverpool.

They don't really understand what swatting is.

(Or they pretend not to understand).

They say I've been writing obscene e-mails to an Aintree-Jobcenter-staff (Sarah Bamber).

But I haven't.

It's the internet-trolls (who read my blog).

And then Sarah Bamber has called the Police about these emails, perhaps a hundred times.

And then the Police go on my door, and make hell.

And they have arrested me like ten times.

And then they always let me go (when the managers get to work).

But one court (in Liverpool) want's to punish me, for what the swatters are doing.

So I'm wondering what's going to happen, if I go the UK now.

I've lived in the UK for a total of ten years, but I'm not a British citizen (but still have my National Insurance Number etc.).

So I rather go to Denmark, Germany and Sweden on holidays (only very short/inexpensive cruises or bus-travel) now.

Due to mess with the 'idiots'/gorillas in the Merseyside police and law-firms and courts.

So that's why I don't get to visit eighter RBS or Barclays.

Due to that I'm afraid I'm going to be arrested if I go to the UK.

(Due to a murder of justice-case).

And the UK also now has a new rule.

Norwegians have to contact the UK, and get a type of visa, to travel to the UK.

And I'm not sure I'm going to get this new visa, due to the problems with the police and courts in Liverpool.

But if it's possible to pay the token-payments with my Norwegian visa-card (from Nordea) then I could just do that.

So please inform me about how I should go forward with paying the mentioned token-payments with my Norwegian Visa-card (or with my Norwegian PayPal-account).

Erik Ribsskog

PS.

I asked to get a reply from a manager/superior, about this debt.

I can't see that this has happened.

Please escalate to a superior now.

PS 2.

If you want, I could pay these token-payments to Lowell in Norway (your sister-company).

That would perhaps be easier.

Since they have a Norwegian bank-account-number, that I could pay (like 25 NOK to) each month, from my internet-banking (with Nordea).

I had a look at Nordeas web-site now.

And it says that it costs 350 NOK to send a payment outside of the EU.

That's around £30.

And then it's not really a token-payment (these are normally £1 Stepchange/CCCS told me, around 2010).

Hi there,

I'm unemployed in Norway, at the moment.

I also was unemployed in the UK, during/after the finance-crises.

Then Stephchange adviced me, that I could pay token-payments, untill I got a job.

So I can offer you to pay montly token-payments, to do with this debt.

(Like use to pay your collegues Debt Management, before Brexit).

I can pay you 10 NOK a month, untill I get a job.

Erik Ribsskog

PS.

This I think was a credit-card, that I got, when I lived in Liverpool City Center.

(Where I lived from 2006 til 2011).

So this debt is almost 20 years old.

And this is on top of a 'fishy' EE-debt that you have been buging me with, earlier this year.

So this I have to complaint about.

What's this supposed to mean?

I want a reply from a superior about this.
