Get the SAR done. If you haven't seen the DS paperwork, how do you even know what is on it ?
-
Yes, sorry, I meant to say residuary beneficiary. As the OP said it was a fairly simple estate with only 2 beneficiaries I assumed there would be no specific bequests.
-
You are under no obligation to show the will to anyone, even the beneficiaries. Copies can be obtained from the probate registry by anyone wanting one. When the estate is finalised, you will have to provide a copy of the estates 'statement of accounts' to any beneficiary who reqeusts one.

You have shot yourself in the foot by not accepting the job when re-offered to you to mitigate your losses. I would SAR them and find out exactly what information you authorised them to apply for and what they received from Disclosure Scotland. Is the job on the 'Excepted Professions, Offices, Employments and Occupations' list ?

Accident at work, disciplinary hearing
CrappoMan replied to StageD's topic in Employment and minimum wage problems
Section 10 of the MHSWR 1999, whilst not explicitly stating 'Risk Assessment', does state that Could that not be construed as the RA? If not, what is the 'assessment' that is talked about. -
liability order advice
CrappoMan replied to superg's topic in Local Authority, Council Tax and Business Rates Issues
Read the post again. Superg is still being charged CT for the first property even though they have left it. They are now being charged CT for 2 properties, but only allowed CT benefit for one. -
When the car was purchased, who was named on the receipt ? If your son, does he have the receipt ?

EBay: I think buyer damaged item and now is seeking a full refund
CrappoMan replied to SusanSpain's topic in Online Stores
It is named 'Buyer Protection' not 'Dispute Resolution' for a reason. Expect ebay/paypal to do nothing for you.You have the buyers name and address. If you have proof to backup your claims then make an MCOL claim. -
Did you or your uncle give the information to the broker ? Reading your first post, it sounds like your uncle gave the broker the wrong information.

The Rehabilitation Of Offenders Act is clear that unless the job is exempt from the Act, you do not have to disclose spent convictions. If the job is not exempt, can they even ask for a disclosure, enhanced or not?

The parking prankster had this on his blog. The ticket isn't all as it seems, it was issued in error and was quickly cancelled. http://parking-prankster.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/picture-of-week-parkingeye-target.html

You need to contact the court and find out what the summons/case was about, then arrange to go to court and swear under oath infront of a judge that you had no knowledge of any case against you. They will give you the option of letting the guilty verdict stand and reducing the fine to the proper level for your income, or cancelling the verdict and starting the prosecution again. I speak from experience, i've had this happen to me. I found out about a driving offence 3 years (!!!!) after, when I changed my address with the DVLA and they threatened to revoke my licence because I hadn't sent if off to them. I had already had the points for 3 years, and hadn't declared them to my insurance company (how could I ? I didn't know about them), so they hadn't 'hurt' me, I weighed up the effect of the remaining 2 years of points against the possibility of a full 5 years of points if I was found guilty at a re-trial so I opted to let the verdict stand but had the fine reduced to the correct level for my income.

The letter means that you were summonsed to court for an offence and didn't attend. You were found guilty and fined in your absence at the standard rate for not attending (£350 x 1.5).

a question about pay day
CrappoMan replied to simon8xu's topic in Employment and minimum wage problems
No, that is what used to be called 'working a month in hand'. It is being paid 'a month in arrears' not 'monthly in arrears' That means when you start a new job, you might have to work 2 full months before you get ANY wages. That is not a cross industry standard and I have never had to earn like that. Expenses might be paid like that, but not normal wages. -
a question about pay day
CrappoMan replied to simon8xu's topic in Employment and minimum wage problems
If the payroll is completed, the only reason to delay paying it is to earn extra interest on the money. -
a question about pay day
CrappoMan replied to simon8xu's topic in Employment and minimum wage problems
Having to wait a full month does sound unreasonable. I get paid on the 10th for working the previous month, but my wage can vary, so the 10 days is reasonable to ensure my pay and expenses are calculated correctly. My wife is paid on the last working day of the same month she works, but she is salaried so her wage doesn't really vary. -
a question about pay day
CrappoMan replied to simon8xu's topic in Employment and minimum wage problems
But there is a huge difference between being paid monthly in arrears and being paid a month in arrears. The latter is semantically no different to the old practice of working 'a month in hand'. You should check your contract to see exactly what it says. -
If you have provided written confirmation that she doesn't live with you, that should be enough. If it later emerges that you are lying, they have written evidence of that lie, and can use that evidence to prosecute you. A complaint may be in order for requesting information that you may not know, and threatening that they will only consider awarding the discount you are entitled to if you provide that possibly unknown information. Where your daughter lives "for the majority of the time" is no concern of yours. You are not her keeper and do not have to keep tabs on where she is. How would you know if she is registered for council tax at another address. That is none of your business. I would not have admitted that she stays at your house for one or two nights a week, as that gives them an 'in' to ask for more information.

I don't know about the back billing, but if they refuse to refund the £300 credit, you could just cancel the direct debit for 6 months until the balance of your account has been reduced.

It doesn't matter what happens in Dutchland, If he died in the UK, then UK law applies. As long as you or the executor have complied with UK probate law you have nothing to be worried about. If there was no money left after paying for the funeral, a simple letter to any creditor saying "There are no funds in the Estate with which to pay any outstanding liabilities." would have been fine.

It doesn't matter what the police think or say. It only matters what a judge will make of the law and past cases/precedent and your argument. The site you linked to is full of inconsistencies, e.g: saying you could be prosecuted under C&U regs if you drive a longer distance with an unroadworthy car. You should know that you cannot drive ANY distance with an unroadworthy vehicle. Saying you can't stop on the way, when there is previous case law saying that you can.

Ticket while at ticket machine
CrappoMan replied to scu11y69's topic in Local Authority Parking and Traffic Offences
You still cant explain why you purchased a ticket over 2mins AFTER the PCN was issued, when it should have taken less than a minute after you actually parked. The meter is only 40m from the first parking spot. Did you go into any of the shops ? Or stop and talk to anyone on the way to the meter ? -
That's why proof of postage/receipt is so important when dealing with any governmental organisation, and especially where money is concerned, because you can bet that someone will either try to get one over on you or cover their ass.

The refund is automatically given from the start of the month AFTER the dvla receive the completed V5 notifying them of the sale of the vehicle. The new owner is expected to tax the vehicle from the start of the month they purchase it. This means that the DVLA collects two lots of tax for the month where ownership is transferred. This is a 'nice little earner' for the government, and is effectively a 'tax' on vehicle sales. This is not a new thing, it was the same under the old paper disc too. Sellers would try to sell near the end of the month and buyers preferred to buy at the start of the month, to maximise the length of time you could actually 'use' the tax. Ideally, the system should also refund automatically if a new owner starts to pay for tax for the same vehicle, but it doesn't, because that would reduce the amount of money DVLA make from people who notify them late, and it gives an incentive for them to say the form was received on the 1st/2nd/3rd of the next month. In short, there is nothing you can do about the double tax for January, that is 'built in' to the system. You can always complain about February and the alleged late receipt of the V5, but without any proof of postage from yourself it will be almost impossible to get them to admit to any mistake.
