Greedy deeds

-

SIR – Peter Sealey (Letters, August 3) paid more than the standard Dartford Crossing charge because he used a “middle man” website.

I had a similar experience with the Land Registry’s website when I wanted to download my title deed. There were many similar sites asking me to pay upwards of £15.

In the end, I was able to reach the real one and got my deed for £3. The annoying thing was the fact that it was very difficult to find. Could this be intentiona­l?

The middle men can get away with it because most customers will not mind paying £15 or £20. However, it should be made compulsory for these expensive websites to declare that a cheaper official website exists. Sakhaullah Asmi
