I was aggressively targeted outside a London Underground station yesterday by a fundraiser for this charity.
He was extremely persistent and despite me saying I needed to be somewhere was very insistent that I sign up.
I was made to feel very vulnerable and uncomfortable and ended up signing up up to get away from him.
I felt it was disgraceful behaviour from a fundraiser, and now I have to find a way to cancel this continuous subscription.
And when I looked at my bank account this evening the payment seems to have gone to a completely different charity.
I do intend to take this further and I would say avoid these fundraisers at all costs, such a shame because I’m sure the charity is genuine, but their pressurising tactics are just unacceptable, especially on a dark night on the street in central London.
