Just need a bit of information regarding data protection, ta.
I sent a letter to a organisation in July requesting my personal information and health records. I received no reply to this request, I again made a request in May 2016 and had no reply. I have again asked for my information at the end of May and have only just received an acknowledgement from the organisation of my personal information request, this has been a total of 65 days!! of no response at all.
I have proof of postage and delivery for all my requests.
They are now asking me for £10 to access my information and the 40 days response only starts when they receive my money. Is this correct?
I believe the 40days starts when they receive my first request. Is this correct?
Is it within the law to ignore my requests for personal information for 65 days? and then to only start the 40 days when this organisation feels like it?
I am considering making a official complaint regarding this deliberate ignoring and delaying of my requests to the Information commissionairs office, would this be reasonable?
Any advise on the above would be most helpful thanks.
