Capital Asset Financial Services Ltd BBC Watchdog Report

[Lawrence_Chard]

We noted that Capital Asset Financial Services Ltd have an ODP listing.

 

We also noted that BBC Watchdog published critcal comments about them at:

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/consumer/tv_and_radio/watchdog/reports/insurance_and_finance/insurance_20060131.shtml

 

An editor may wish to review their listing in view of this.

 

We have also added our own page about them at:

I'm not sure what you're asking for here, so I don't know how to proceed.

 

If what you want is a link in this forum for your site, let me know and I'll take the appropriate action: deleting this thread as spam.

 

If you believe the CAFS listing is inappropriately described, you can post in the quality control thread and we'll have a look when the servers are back up.

 

If you think it shouldn't be listed because your opinion is that they're dishonest, all I can say is that we are not the internet police.

I was not asking for anything, simply passing on information I thought may be relevant.

No, that's OK.

The BBC with their reknowned conversative unbiased reporting seem to think they are rather sharp, and they only people who will make any money from their schemes. We do agree though.

No, but any body (or anybody) who cares about quality of sites on the web should also take some kind of moral and ethical responsibility for the ethical quality of the sites it helps to promote, or is the DMOZ position that dishonest sites are equally entitled to their one listing as do honest and informative sites?

We list Microsoft sites. And they're the biggest intellectual property thieves in history -- and that doesn't even get into their "sharp" business practices. (That should settle your concern about whether the ODP lists "only ethical" firms. But, just for FURTHER clarification, Microsoft Chief Extortional, um, Executive Officer Ballmer has accused Linux users of unethical practices. Are we going to delist Red Hat on his say-so? And whose opinion of ethics matters more: mine or Ballmer's? You see the slippery slope--well, precipice--you'd urge us onto?)

 

But we also list sites alleging unethical practices of firms. Your BBC link doesn't work for me. But you could (i.e. please do!) suggest the (corrected) link to the "allegedly unethical firms" category. (Obviously the BBC is one of the most deeplinkable sites on the web!)
