Employer won't refund deposit ** Successfully Resolved **

What is this form you are being asked to sign?

 

I don't think you should be signing anything to be honest. They aren't entitled to have the CCJ 'removed' and I don't think this can be achieved by simply signing some forms or making a declaration. You certainly shouldn't sign anything until you have received full payment.

 

I would call their bluff - state that a letter before action was provided and that the company failed to respond to both this and the claim form; and state that you will be instructing bailiffs to recover the CCJ amount (and their fees) unless payment is received in the next 7 days.

 

Their threats are a bunch of cobblers and should not concern you.

I hope you understand the severity of what we are saying here

 

 

And I hope you understand what they are trying to do to you. A company can be more frightening than an individual and they know that this sort of letter, which is designed to frighten you, could make you so wary that you drop everything.

As already suggested, don't sign anything until you have shown it and taken advice.

alternatively, "I look forward to discussing my alleged criminal activity with the police and seeing you in court once again for my slander claim. My mum's going to be a character witness."

 

NNNNo don't. But it'd be funny.

Thank you everyone for your comments. That last email was a bit scary until I got to the bit about my parents!

They've paid me the full amount this morning. The declaration they want me to sign and send to various parties is a letter from me stating the money has been paid in full and I want the judgement to be closed and cancelled and the CCJ removed. I may do it but send without the stamps!

I am going to make a donation to this site as without your help and advice I would never have had the courage to take this on.

Thank you all so much.

I think they are confused. Once a ccj is regisrered after 14 days of the judgement all they can do is get a certificate of satisfaction. The ccj will remain

Its great that you have received the payment. Very well done for following this through and getting the end result you wanted. Your donation to the site running costs will be much appreciated!

 

 

Personally I don't see any problem with you signing a letter which states that the money has now been paid in full. I don't think this would be enough to get the CCJ removed but if it makes them happy, then so be it.

And if your not working for them any longer, send back the unsigned for with a footer 'ha ha, April Fool'.

I wouldnt urinate on them if they were on fire. Ignore them now you have the money and move on. They have threatened you with all sorts of things because they are too up themselves to take you seriously to begin with and now they ahve lost they are being vindictive and childish.

Don sign or agree to a thing. It will not benefit you and coul cause harm so why consider it.

I agree with this. You've got the judgement in your favour, and they've paid up. As far as I would be concerned, the matter rests there. If they want further comfort (though, as others have said, it's not obvious what they're really asking for - the judgement can't be rescinded or set aside now they've paid up) they can go whistle. I had this situation when I sued Monarch Airlines. Though fought tooth and nail until the very end - when the judge ruled against them. They sent me a cheque as ordered - with a draft agreement that the terms of the settlement would be confidential. That letter got filed in the bin, obviously. Because if you win, you win on your own terms!
