    ROFL ours are so lost we aren't even sure where they are. Not even sure what province they are in.

    Welcome Karter,

    YES, I used the UK Data Protection Act, sent my £10 with a very professional looking letter, they acknowledged by return but took the maximum time allowed before sending the information.

    It was actually a great surprise as the PO had written a shocking letter about me to the London Branch.

    It does work, make it good and put the frighteners on them.

    oh wow. i wish i could do that. (in US)..

    Not to highjack the thread but i have quick question: Do they keep your card even when you DA?

    Yes, they keep you cards even if you DA or are DF'd. That is how they are supposed to visit these people once a year per the WTS to see if they want to come back. I wonder if they get rid of them if people die though.

    They haven't visited me once since I DAed ... They should. I would enjoy the conversation.

    I did ask once for my record card, although the secretary wasn't happy about it, I asked the other elders and they couldn't see anything wrong with the request, after all, its my record card, so I looked at it and tooks some notes. I was once assitant to the secretary and I had control of the record cards, there were some very old cards there from some JW's who i have never heard of at that time and some JW"s who stopped coming for many years, I do clearly reemember it being up to me if I wanted to keep these cards or throw them out, I decided to leave them there, it was the safer choice, in case someone did come back.

    The Lone Ranger,

    As far as anybody trying to get back their record card, I am sure most of the information has been entered into somebody's computer somewhere, so I don't think it would make much of a difference if you got a card back because the info is elsewhere. You wouldn't even get an honest answer if they could tell you if it was elsewhere.

    So, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
