There is no sample letter for this kind of thing. All the very circumstances are generally speaking so dissimilar – that you need to make your own letter. I have no doubt that Hermes has a complaints process and that is what you need to engage with. I'm not saying that their complaints process is any good. In fact as far as I hear, it is rubbish – but you need to begin it and to make sure that you keep copies of screenshots already emails or letters so that you can show that you have raised a complaint with them and after waiting a reasonable time, say, 10 days to 14 days, you gave up or else they declined your complaint and then you decided to start taking formal action. -
Hi I’ve spoke to my GP and they said they’ve been told by the government not to hand out any letters for people and I need to go onto the government website and I can get a letter of there. I’ve searched all over the website and can’t find anything but the template for the exemption card I already have. It makes clear on the website that you don’t need to proof any medical exemption but the police and shop keepers clearly think otherwise. I don’t no if I’ll have an argument now since my doctor won’t even see me so I can proof my anxiety. I don’t fancy paying solicitors fees if it has to go to court. I’d struggle paying the £200 fine at the moment let alone anything else. I’m going to ring CAB today and see if they can help in anyway. I think it’s likely I’ll end up paying but I really don’t think it’s fair as I followed the rules the government set. If I do have to pay it is there anyway I can pay it in instalments or convince them to still give me the £100 discount? I’m not a solicitor so I’ve needed more time then two weeks to figure out were I stand. Thanks Andrew -

If i was to contact AX today and tell them a family member can loan me the money for a new car so the hire car can be collected . i could see what they say to this. Is this a good idea? -
I am sorry i find this forum bit hard to navigate can you please provide me the link where i can see any sample complain letter, so the letter text i sent in my previous post is not a complaint letter? Secondly i don't mind at all if you are correcting me, English is not my first language and it is much appreciated that you correcting me, i have found the correct word "tampered". Thanks -

Post in Court Claim Against Hermes - item sent via Packlink was lost/tampered with **WON at mediation full amount **
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!
