Nope, like I said 'more than their jobsworth', besides which it's 
impossible to find anyone high enough up the organization to have any 
discretion who will actually talk to a customer.

I tried the 'who do I talk to' and 'who set the 15k limit anyway, and 
'why has it been 15k for the last N years' and got blankness back (with 
a Scottish accent). Already offered them whatever indemnity that wanted 
to ask for .. 'can't be dun Jon' was about all they could say.
