dont pay, just claim

the only reason the dds are not being paid is becaue the bank has unlawfully taken so much money from my account in the first place

ha ha ha i didnt think of it in that way - in my wifes words, its a joke

oh yeah? where can i get this from?

right cant scan it so here it is: i am XXXX employed as a customer service manager by XXXX we offer vehicle inspections and prepare condition reports for prospective purchasers our service is subject to T's and C's our vehicle inspections are purely visual and no dismantling takes place. the inspection does not carry any guarantee or warranty and none is implied on 30th may 2006 we took a booking to inspect a BMW M3 EVOLUTION reg XXXXX. the inspection costs £274 for a 133 point inspection. payment was made via credit card our engineer was allocated to inspect the car our engineer completed the inspection on 1st june 2006. the inspection was incomplete insofar as the road test had not been undertaken as the engineer reported a serious leak to the cooling system our T's and C's specifically deal with incidents of this nature: a road test will not be carried out if our engineer deems the car as unsafe or unroadworthy Mr XXXX contacted us on 5th June 2006 concerning the fact that the road test was not completed. he was advised that a re-inspection charge of 50% (£137) would be required for this (this is our normal practice). whilst Mr XXXX raised concerns in an email dated 5th june 2006 concerning the inspection fee, he subsequently accepted and paid the fee, and was advised that the matter was not being treated as a complaint at this time. Mr XXXX was advised that the car should be repaired before the road test can be done. at 4.30pm on 6th june 2006 Mr XXXXrang to cancel the further inspection. he was advised that a fee of £30 would be retained for administration. our normal cancellation fee is £70(!!!!!!!!!!) as identified within our T's and C's on 1st august 2006 i recieved a notification of a complaint from Mr XXXX which was dated 5th july 2006 regarding the inspection service we had carried out. the complaint concerned the fact that we were unable to carry out a road test due to the vehicle being unroadworthy and our cancellation fee of £30 which was levied when Mr XXXX cancelled the re-inspection. an acknowledgement of the complaint was sent to Mr XXXX on 3rd august 2006 our engineer was sent a copy of the complaint and supplied his own statement we have had no further contact with Mr XXXX until the issue of the county court claim dated 1st november 2006

thats a poor answer

AQ hand delivered to court today, i have found a scanner (!), just need to set it up....

still nothing

just read your sig. whats all this about withdrawing your banking facilities, even though your account is in order? the banks actions surely cannot be legal. more and more peeps are saying that the banks are terminating agreements, i think you should challenge your banks actions. if not you, then someone and soon.

can take 28 days to remove u from the list, bear that in mind

boys and girls - i have been 'lucky' enough to have my car recovered after it was stolen, with no damage (thieving **** took my keys). the vehicle recovery company have charged me £105 to recover the car, which i cannot claim on my car insurance as my excess is £350. what can i do? why should i have to pay, when i am the victim? surely the costs that are involved in criminal cases are already paid, by the taxpayer?

make enquiries to a UK small claims court (via email to keep costs down), you should be able to do something about this

i think you should not accept it. the extra £75 is your money, its that simple

recieved defence and Allocation Questionnaire today - whats the best way to post it on here? scan it?

loving your work!!

i have used them before, cant really remember any huge problems though

oh and congratulations catherinebear, drinks are on you!!!!

no i wanted to see what having all that money in the bank looks like, especially after all the garbage and heartache that the bank has put catherinebear through - also to see the letter that accompanies the chq, to see how they word the fact that they have been defeated and have had to pay the money back. and yes, when i get a refund i will scan the chq for all to see, proving that the advice offered on this site actually pays dividends
