buccaneer Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 just read this on the Freeman cruisers forum >>>>Some of you may remember my witterings/grumblings re: the huge hike in this year's BW licence fee earlier this year? Well it would appear that the Waterways Ombudsman (didn't know there was such a thing - probably a hob nob eating quango - eh Sanda) agreed that the hike was excessive. A letter (together with cheque) received on 9 Oct from the Ombudsman advised that after discussions with BW, the licence fees had been reduced by 20% & this applied from 1st July 2011. As our season runs April-Oct we had already paid for our licence & now 6 mths later I have received a cheque in the post for £45!<<<< I have not read anything about this on other forums or on Waterscape.

carlt Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Cool. Adds strength to Allan's arguments about the loss of the Ombudsman, when the new charity goes live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
