  1. Today my landlord contacted my wife and asked her if she can send over a photographer to take photos of the place we are renting, so my wife said its okay. Later the photographer called my wife and said he will be coming over in 2 days, my wife said we are not at home during the day, so she was told not to worry, they have keys. Its not the first time the the landlord gave keys to someone to come into our house. Is this allowed, can i do something about it?
  2. After sending a letter to the train company, I received a call from their prosecutions department, and they offered me an Out of court settlement, I paid the outstanding fare which is £12.50, and £100.00 for costs. The person handling the case was very friendly and helpful. Thank you for all your help, i have definitely learnt my lesson, and will not be making the same mistake in the future.
  3. Thank you for the help, i sent them a letter this morning, will hope for the best and see what happens.
  4. I figured out later that i was cautioned by the ticket inspector, but at the time when she said it the train was making so much noise that I couldn't hear her, I asked her to repeat it twice, still coulddn't hear her, and then just nodded. I didn't understand at the time what it was all about, seeing that it was my first time offense. I have a Lloyds Visa debit card, not a Solo.
  5. Good day, I am hoping to get some advice regarding a summons i received. It is from National Express, Liverpool street.The summons mentions railway byelaw 18(1). Here is what happened, and can i say upfront, i know that i was wrong, i didnt have a ticket, i just want to make the best of a bad situation. I travelled on the train from Bishops Stortford to Liverpool steet. A ticket inspector came around and asked me for my ticket, i said i didnt have one, so she asked me why, i told her i was late getting to the station, and didnt have time. I know thats not a valid excuse. She then told me i have to pay a panalty fare of £20.00. I got my Lloyds debit card out, she proceeded to process the transaction. The card wouldn't work in her machine, there was more than sufficient funds for the transaction. She tried again, and after not working a second time she told me she will have to report me. She took out her book and started writing, she asked me for my details and i gave it all. She then asked me some questions, which i couldn't hear clearly, i just said yes because i know i was wrong. She asked me to sign, i signed. 2 Months later i got a letter from the train company, i wrote back and said i was wrong, and i am willing to pay a fine for sorting out this issue. Then i got a summons this week, saying i have to be on court on 6 August. I have 3 options: Plead guilty and go to court, plead guitly and not go to court, and plead not guilty. I don't want to get a crininal record, is there anything i can do to settle this before the court date? Any help would be appreciated.
