A Case Study in Corporate Stupidity

Thinker, entrepreneur and social activist William Heath is engaged in a running battle with mobile telco Orange after a contract was fraudulently taken out in his name. Despite his reporting the incident to the police, and a mountain of correspondence with Orange, they have set the debt collectors on him.
