Stealing wallets from TK MAXX

[ForestChav]

Does she usually open your post?

 

And don't pay it - it's not enforceable and it isn't even worth them taking you to court over, that said, they won't win anyway. Just enjoy the free loo paper or something.

 

ETA: They can only recoup losses and as they have the wallet they don't have any losses let alone the figure they are trying to ask for!

[Steve Williams]

But the thing is, if I dont pay, they will keep sending in letters and I wouldn't want them to do that because of my mum. And the letter says 'Retail Loss Prevention' so I'm not sure.

it will make no odds if you pay

they will still demand more

 

once they have a cash cow - they'll continue to milk it

 

you seriously need to get your mother on-board.

 

if it were me - i'd send her an email with a link to this thread.

So even if i do pay £35, they would still send letters and ask for more money?

Oh and my friend got charged £178 because he was over 16. And he hasdecided he's paying it off with installments.

[ForestChav]

I could send you letters asking for £170 or some other random amount I picked and threaten court action, doesn't mean if I actually took the case to court that I would win or even if I'm entitled to ask for that money. This is the same.

[Steve Williams]

Did you pay the RLP, ForestChav?

[dx100uk]

its still a speculative invoice with no legal standing

 

fool to pay it off tell your friend

 

waste of money

just lining peoples pockets

This would appear to be a new tactic from RLP.

Their offer to accept £35 if paid immediately,when the original demand was £137.50 tells its own story.

These figures are being plucked from thin air.

[ForestChav]

Did you pay the RLP, ForestChav?

Haven't ever had to, but if they did try one of their "invoices" it would make nice firewood. It's on par with the private parking tickets.

How is your thing going, Steve?

[Steve Williams]

I'm not sure yet, I'm still deciding whether or not to pay the £35 to them. But I may ring them up and ask, if I pay the amount, would they leave me alone, forever

[dx100uk]

dont be a mug

 

it'll make no diff

I would advise against telephoning them.

If you really do want to contact them-keep things in writing.

Perhaps you can inform them that you have read what the CAB have to say on the matter.Ask them to provide you with a precise breakdown of what the £137.50 is for,how much of this would be going to TK Maxx,and also if they can furnish you with a list of Court cases they have won.......................

thx to Steve ,Dx and Martin.

I will do a bit law work this week,

to seek something useful,

and then back to show them.

anyway, God bless~~~

Don't contact them at all. Definitely don't pay them anything.

[paulwifi]

is there any one tried be back to TKM after 1month,

do they seriously would drive you out?

[MARTIN3030]

Its not something most would be too eager to attempt.

Do you seriously want to give your business to a company who allows these practices to continue in their shops ?

[paulwifi]

yes,Martin, I c your point, and I do agree with u.

however, sometimes, if u hang out with your friends,

they want to enter TKM,

it's a bit strange u refuse coming in, isnt it?

so, that's the reason why I ask that.

HI Steve

TX Max should have checked that you where of a age to be held and question with-out an adult there with you, as this matter has not been reported to the police in the courts eyes there has been no crimmal offence and therefor no action can be taken, RLP NOT NOT HAVE ANY LEGAL RIGHTS TO INPOSE ANY FINES. So dont pay them however you will have to talk to your mum or dad as this will require an adults to fight the claim from RLP.

[ForestChav]

He doesn't need to "fight" anything as what they are sending is speculative invoices which are not enforceable.

 

It is the same as me sending you a letter demanding £137.50.

[Steve Williams]

Sorry guys, I couldn't risk having other letters being sent to my house. I paid the fine of £35 today.

[geoffthechef]

You have not paid the FINE because the fine does not exist..private company's have no right whatsoever to FINE people...they are just sending out invoices...like me or you could and more fool anyone who pays them..

[2Grumpy]

I've seen quite a few people paying because they don't want other people to see what is happening or just want to see an end to it for different reasons. I suspect this accounts for a lot of their income - via pester power
