Government officials are advising UK companies to set up shop in Europe to avoid problems with red tape and taxes. Unbelievable. Was Brexit meant to create jobs in Europe? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/jan/23/brexit-hit-firms-advised-government-officials-set-up-shop-in-eu -

So at £48 per sq m, did that include underlay and/or fitting. 1. In which rooms/hall, etc was this fitted. 2. Where abouts has the "damage" occured. 3. How did you pay for this ? If you paid by credit card or with credit from SCS, this may affect the options you have if the carpet is faulty. SCS's own assessor is unlikely to find in your favour. Similarly, if you seek intervention by the Furniture and Home Improvements Ombudsman, they tend to find in favour of the store (who funds them) rather than the customer. Come back with answers to 1, 2 & 3 please. -
the only downside of not having a default registered and showing in the overall status of the debt is it's not 100% guaranteed it will (as it should) vanish on its SB date, you might have to chase that. but in your position, you've not moved, the bucket of 6's and on going 6 if you look hasn't made your score progressively decrease each month either as it shouldn't. just remember other creditors potential or existing cant see the calendar section of any debt unless they own it. they can only the status line of each 'account'.

Thanks for the replies. Have received another letter from LL solicitor, same form for secure tenancy notice of seeking possession. Now they have removed ground 10 and left grounds 3&4. am lining up an appt with a solicitor next week. All a bit strange as we had the fair rent agreed as a regulated tenancy. The LL has been through so many solicitors now it’s a struggle to keep up. one other thing, neither NOSP have been sent via registered or recorded post. The letter we have received (email only at this point) is comprised of a cover letter with ‘Without Prejudice’ at the top then a copy of the NOSP. Does it have to be registered post in order for the notice to be seen as served? will post back after solicitor appt btw cheers

Post in Court Claim Against Hermes - item sent via Packlink was lost/tampered with **WON**
jj58 posted a post in a topic,
Hi @BankFodder
Sorry for only updating you now, but after your guidance with submitting the claim it was pretty straight forward and I didn't want to unnecessarily waste your time. Especially with this guide you wrote here, so many thanks for that
So I issued the claim on day 15 and they requested more time to respond.
They took until the last day to respond and denied the claim, unsurprisingly saying my contract was with Packlink and not with them.
I opted for mediation, and it played out very similarly to other people's experiences.
In the first call I outlined my case, and I referred to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 as the reason to why I do in fact have a contract with them.
In the second call the mediator came back with an offer of the full amount of the phone and postage £146.93, but not the court costs. I said I was not willing to accept this and the mediator came across as a bit irritated that I would not accept this and said I should be flexible. I insisted that the law was on my side and I was willing to take them to court. The mediator went back to Hermes with what I said.
In the third call the mediator said that they would offer the full amount. However, he said that Hermes still thought that I should have taken the case against Packlink instead, and that they would try to recover the court costs themselves from Packlink.
To be fair to them, if Packlink wasn't based in Spain I would've made the claim against them instead. But since they are overseas and the law lets me take action against Hermes directly, it's the best way of trying to recover the money.
So this is a great win. Thank you so much for your help and all of the resources available on this site. It has helped me so much especially as someone who does not know anything about making money claims.
Many thanks, stay safe and have a good Christmas!
