sent a rejection letter a week or so <strong>after</strong> this, and I reapplied<br />

<strong>with</strong> full advice from Lulu Press Inc. first.<br />

9. Apart from <strong>the</strong> s<strong>in</strong>gle article I had been given by Julie last<br />

week, it was a big disappo<strong>in</strong>tment that <strong>the</strong>re was no o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

<strong>in</strong>terest <strong>in</strong> my book launch from a total of 28 press and<br />

radio station outlets!<br />

10. I had applied for my driv<strong>in</strong>g licence back – back <strong>in</strong><br />

June – and was to be told that some forms were sent to<br />

my Consultant at Cygnet House early <strong>in</strong> December, but<br />

had not been received back by <strong>the</strong> DVLA by Christmas…<br />

On Wednesday morn<strong>in</strong>g I got a nice little surprise – a credit of<br />

£21.67 from <strong>the</strong> IET <strong>in</strong> my bank account. A phone call revealed<br />

this was a ‘top up’ of £5 a week for November, and <strong>the</strong>y would<br />

be pay<strong>in</strong>g it every month from now on – br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g my total<br />

pensions/grants from <strong>the</strong> IET to £175.00 a month from<br />

November! I emailed Lulu Press Inc and f<strong>in</strong>ally accused <strong>the</strong>m<br />

of ignor<strong>in</strong>g my requests for a refund – for several months! I<br />

also had a letter from my Doctor – a copy of a letter referr<strong>in</strong>g<br />

me to <strong>the</strong> head podiatrist at Harlow Hospital. As we will see,<br />

<strong>the</strong>y took swift action <strong>in</strong> response <strong>with</strong><strong>in</strong> weeks…<br />

Thursday cont<strong>in</strong>ued quiet but <strong>the</strong>re was f<strong>in</strong>ally an immediate<br />

response from Lulu. They acted as promised, had refunded<br />

£16 to my bank account <strong>in</strong> days, and on Christmas Eve I f<strong>in</strong>ally<br />

got a fur<strong>the</strong>r £28+ from my Paypal account <strong>in</strong>to my bank<br />

account. The total refund of £44+ was about right, so end<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>after</strong> months of wrangl<strong>in</strong>g and fish<strong>in</strong>g out order numbers, issue<br />

3 above! That even<strong>in</strong>g, fed up <strong>with</strong> Book Promotion ltd and <strong>the</strong><br />

ongo<strong>in</strong>g poor performance of my web site, I <strong>in</strong>spected ‘PhD for<br />

published works’ on Google on my PC, and found that Bolton,<br />

Sunderland, Hertfordshire and Northamptonshire Universities<br />

all offered such a degree – but <strong>the</strong> fees were prohibitive!<br />

The weekend was extremely quiet. I telephoned T3 Direct<br />

hav<strong>in</strong>g posted my letter <strong>with</strong> reference from 3 Mobile Debt<br />

Collection Agency on Wednesday to <strong>the</strong>m – but was told to r<strong>in</strong>g<br />

back on Monday.<br />
