Panorama Copier dealer expose

There will be a second programme from Panorama covering copiers and copier dealers very soon I understand...
However, Panorama will have their work cut out trying to understand the complexity and subtlety that creates the profits for copier sales people and their Directors. Then of course they have to broadcast a programme that doesn`t lose the viewers attention which I suspect is the biggest problem they face and why copier dealers have never been successfully exposed previously. Watchdog tried and failed 20 years ago. I have already spent a couple of hours trying to explain the systems they use to Matthew Chapman, the Panorama producer, so lets see what happens when the next programme is aired in October...

Panorama Copier and lap top Scams and cons

At least 169 schools across the UK have fallen victim to a rip-off that has seen them massively overcharged for IT equipment and left with debts of up to £1.9m. More than 70,000 students are affected.

Some schools have been left on the verge of closure as a result of cutbacks required to meet the payments.

While some schools fell victim to mis-selling companies, others just paid grossly inflated prices for their equipment leases.

Paul Kenyon from the BBC's Panorama programme met with an school IT leasing expert to get a sense of what some of the technology that schools have bought - from photocopiers to computers to printers - should actually have cost.

Panorama: Reading, Writing and Rip-offs, BBC One, Monday, 24 September at 20:30 BST and then available in the UK on theBBC iPlayer.
