This is the same as me. My 5800 kept crashing after 2 months of having it. I sent it back to be repaired and it came back to me DAMAGED. It has gone back again as T Mobile have admitted liability that it was damaged at their repair warehouse. Since taking out my renewal contract with t mobile 4 months ago, I have had my phone only 3 weeks out of this period. I am currently using a loan phone that is awful and does not get signal anywhere. It seems I am paying for a monthly service with T Mobile and am not recieveing what I signed up for. I have wrote 5 letters of complaint to T Mobile - as since my renewal they haven't charged me corrctly on my bill either ( each month they keep getting my price plan wrong, and overcharging me ) which results in a call to them, and them having to amend it EACH TIME. T mobile are truly rubbish. I wish to god I had not renewed with them in June. 5800's are notorious for freezing, crashing and having software faults also. I have never had such poor service form a phone provider ever. they wont help me, and now i will end up with a twice repaired refurbished phone, and not the immaculate one I originally sent off for repair. PS - they also lied to me. After my phone came back damaged, I was told a new one would be sent to me within 4 days for all the hassle. After not recieving anything, I enquired where it was - to be told my original phone was being repaired and it would take 28 days. They lied.

Yeah this is deffo to do with a CEL "Private Parking" fine! Any more ideas, surely they wont just go away will they?

We have never actually entered into a dispute with them, we simply ignored the Civil Enforcement company. Should we say we know nothing about it? Or say we are in dispute even if we never replied to those sh!ts.

Ok so I ignored the first 2 letters recieved from the phoney Civil enforcement company after parking 10 minutes over the specified time in a bloody dark car park... But low and behold this morning I received one from Newlyn a debt collection company saying that I now owe them £195.00. What is the best action to take? Should I call them and tell them I never received any information from the civil enforcement company? Tell them to take me to court? Tell them to bog off? Any ideas guys? Thanks In advance!

iI am hearing of a lot of cases lately where people are being sacked for the most petty and pathetic reasons. without the standard written and then verbal warning. Are companies trying to do this as a way of cutting back on staff due to the current economic climate, and as a way of avoiding paying the necessary notice pay / pay in lieu of notice, and some cases even redundancy? I know someone that was instantly sacked the other day for having a cigarette - outside and off the premises!!! no warning or anything!!

ah ok I see. Well i do know that if you've worked there less than 1 year i think you have to give 2 weeks notice. And anything above that ( Iv been there 4 years ) is 4 weeks. I dont think it ever increase after 4 weeks though.

My stat notice is 4 weeks. This hasnt increased due to the time iv been there. ( I dont think ) And holiday pay....exactly..iv earned and accrued this. If not taken then this must be paid surely. Im sure we will soon see. Thanks for your help

Thankyou. i hope this is the case. I know theyll try and wangle their way out of it if they can. Bit of a questionable one this. never been in this position before.

Hi hope someone can help me - Iv heard a few different things about this and would just like some advice. Iv been on the sick for the past week, as the job I have been doing for the past year has become a total nightmare. The place i work is no longer the same, and the workload is unrealistic as to what a human can physically do. I have reported my concerns for weeks, but hey fall on deaf ears, and dont even get acknowledged! i feel like i am banging my head against a brick wall, and getting upset and frustrated all over my job. Basically the job makes me ill, and after being at the same company for 4 years, i decided i needed time out. the doctor put me on the sick for a week to rest and decide what i needed to do. I was a total nightmare out of work, crying and shouting and breaking down for no reason. Anyway, i have returned to work for 1 day and after being spoke to like **** and looked at with daggers all day, I returnd to the doctors again, who advised me it would be better for me, after hearing all my concerns again, if I did not go back. the GP asked me what my notice period is that i have to give - it is 4 weeks- and the doctor has given me a sick note for this period of time so i dont have to go back to that hell hole and work the notice. I have something else i could do in the means of employment after my notice has elapsed - working for a family friend so i am not woried too much financially, and to be honest, the stress of work far outweighs the money worry. Anyway, I have cut a long story short above, there is more the company do that is wrong and poor practicew towards its staff, but i have just given you the main points, and i now wondered how the company stand with paying me for this period? Because i have a valid GP sick note for the week just gone, and for the next 4 weeks which will be also my notice period, does this mean i will get company sick pay, or at least SSP? I have been advised to write my letter of resignation, state my main points and the reasons for leaving, and enclose the sick note. end of. My notice period will literally be the 4 weeks sick. Im sure i have some holiday days that i have accrued too, but that will just set the company moaning and open another can of works i think. I am not honesly too worried, but i am 100% the company will try and rip me off with paying me for this sick period, and that winds me up more than anything?!! so does anybody know how i stand? Can they refuse to pay me anything? can they pay Company sick pay, or SSP Or can they come to my house, knock on my door, and punch me in the head?! I also must stress that the entire week i was off last week, they rung me everyday and hassled me wanting to know when i was going back. My GP advised they should not do this, and a sick note should tell them to leave me alone. therefore, i dont think they will take this 4 week note lying down. thanks in advance for your help and advice. Stephanie Louise.
