@firstutility change of tariff
uaruman replied to uaruman's topic in Utilities - Gas, Electricity, Water
Many thanks for your help. It just seems criminal. -
Hi, I recently received a telephone call from First Utility. This was in respect of my present tariff which ends at the end of January 2019. I explained that I intended to look around in January for the best deal. When I check my Smart Meter several hours later, I found the meter had been electronically set to zero and had started charging me on new (and more expensive) tariff. I both telephoned and emailed (with photographs) of the new settings and complained. They said within 24 hours it would go back to my old Tariff. Several phoned calls later it is still on the new Tariff and First Utility say that they will adjust the bill in January. Please advise

Excel parking control this particular car park. On the 31st of March this year I parked my vehicle there. On the 10th of April ( 10 days later) I received a. Penalty charge for non-payment of parking on that date. Fortunately I had kept.the ticket which confirmed I had paid. They used every trick in the book to make me pay (all to no avail) If you park in Stockport I suggest you use the Council car parks . I have for years with no problems. Obtaining money by false pretences used to be a crime. Now it's DVLA assisted. MAKE sure you keep your ticket!!

Complaints about solicitors – Is the SRA fit for purpose?
uaruman replied to FitForPurpose's topic in Campaign
What are the exact duties of an Administrator in the execution of a Will? This refers to a situation where the executors cannot agree in the matter of probate.- 29 replies

So if the complaint concerns a Court Appointed Adminstrator and a Solicitor acting on your behalf, where do you go from there?- 29 replies

if you read of my experiences with the Halifax Bank (Wills and Probate) you will find that the Halifax Bank totally ignore the law, ignore solicitors letters and refuse to assist even Administrators. The eventual outcome takes several years and the result is rarely satisfactory. They have an answer for everything. Just find another bank and get a new account. My step-daughter, who is severely disabled (brain damage as the result of a car accident) was given an o/d of £2500.00. She could neither afford it and it was never requested. The same bank refused her a loan because of her supposed inability to pay and yet were more than happy to charge her exorbitant o/d fees whilst (unbe-known to me) refusing to let her withdraw her incapacity benefits (a very simple picture of the true facts) Needless to say, after several letters, the use of the Disability Act and the threat of press involvement, the Halifax Bank have withdrawn all threats and (for the time being) gone away. Banks are there purely to make money. There is no such thing as a 'good' Bank. The Halifax, at least for me, is the absolute bottom of these particular feeders.

I assume the grounds for the Caveat being issued was the questionable state of your Father in Laws mental health (at the time this particular Will was drawn up) ? A prepayment of £250 for an initial consultation fee seems rather high. Have you seen or/ have a copy of the previous Will which you suggest was altered/changed? The Medical Records are held by the NHS and a written application should be made to the relevant Doctor/Health Trust for these records. With regard to your Mother In Laws estate. I cannot imagine any funds being released (except for Funeral Costs) by her Bank without a Grant Of Probate. The removal of goods from her property can be seen as diluting the value of the estate (theft; but I wouldn't bother the local constabulary with that nugget) In her case you need to contact the Ministry Of Justice (Probate) and explain your concerns with them. It is amazing how many deaths never, ever get as far as Probate.

Can I respectfully suggest you contact Trading Standards in this matter? I am only repeating exactly what they told me. The end product was the simple fact that these individuals never contacted the person concerned again. Whether right (or wrong) as I have stated in my previous postings it worked. I appreciate all the various comments and also the suggestions that have been made in respect of trading standards. However, the priority is to stop anybody, whether at work, or at home, harassing you. You are welcome to try other legislation and (god help you) the police. That road I really wouldn't go down at all. They are akin to indicators on a submarine. Just trundle down to your local nick with your diary if you feel so inclined. I wouldn't !!!
