Installation of summerhouse.

[ericsbrother]

is the installation part of the contrat price? If so then as they wont install the summer house they are in breach of contract and at best the whole thing is said to be frustrated as neither can continue with it. tell them that as there is now no contract it is not possible t refer to nay aprt fo somehting that doesnt exist.

 

I'm sure that they will make a lot of noise to bully you into paying as their employees ahev so far sucessfully bullied you into letting them do nothinga nd walk off the job.

 

You need to put things in writing to state where you are from your point of view and that si they are refusing to abide with the agreeement and install the summer house as per specification.

Now they might accept that and then say that they get to keep the deposit but that isnt so either. their losses are actually quite minimal at this stage because the summwer house is still a kit made to a common pattern from common materials so they can easily sell it on so we are talking about an hours labour by the 2 rude men as being the only actual loss.

[ericsbrother]

they are saying that they are keeping the money you have paid and if you make a fuss they will claim you owe them more.

 

The reality is they are miffed at losing their commission for the finance agreement and the risk is now shoved onto their shoulders rather then the finance house.

 

they arent saying they are going to sue you, just deem that you owe them money.

 

Now if they do sell the shed and get more than it actually cost them to make will they pass on the profit to you? of course not so this threat is nonsense.

 

what do you want to do?

doing nothing and accepting the lost deposit is the easist, you can sue for the money back as they changed the terms of the contract after getting your agreement and thus repudiating the contract or they may try and sue you but they then risk a judge making them return your deposit money.

 

I suspect they will make noise and maybe write again telling you the sky is going to fall in but actually do nothing  because they arent actually oit of pocket

Did you think they would send a letter saying that they werent wrong?

Cancellation fee is unlawful anyway and that is enough to make the rest of the contract unenforceable.

time to stop being polite

[ericsbrother]

and now you must be single minded.

Check online and get the judgement if it isnt already there. They may well appeal this but that will cost them

Prepare as though they are defending but go after them as debtors. If it is more than £600 get the matter sent to the High Court for enforcement, will cost you £60 but will cost them loads more.

It is deemed served so you carry on. I they have refused it or given false detaisl to CH then that is their look out.

Howevr, it does give you problmes when trying to enfoce the court order unless you know they are still at the address. Often a registered office is just a PO pick up
