  1. Hi guys, Iv'e not been around much as of late and have had many years of good advice on here relating to my Halifax debt (which thanks to this forum will be statute barred in 5 months) So just when I think it's all over I get a letter today from someone else seeking money. Approx 3 months ago I asked for a free non obligation quote from a company to put a new roof on my house. They called to the house and left a quote of £11,000 asking me to sign a provisional agreement subject to finance. I refused to sign this despite some pushy tactics by the salesperson and stated that I needed to think things over. They telephoned about a week later then said they would drop the price to £10k. I again said I'm not ready to commit to anything. I then had a quote from another company who charged £4,800 for the work and proceeded to get the job done with them The original company contacted me a few weeks later to see if we were still thinking about having this done and I stated that the job had been done (and cheaper) so they said thanks for the interest and contact us again should you need us in future. Thinking nothing more of this I today received a letter demanding payment of £1,022 for their out of pocket expenses in providing the quote and if I pay this they wont come after me for their 35% cancellation fee of our verbal agreement for this work. So imagine my surprise as I never agreed to having any work done and in fact refused to sign even the provisional agreement and stated I was not ready to commit to any work with their company. So the choices they have given me is pay £1,022 now, or they will seek 35% of the £11,000 for their cancellation fee.
