Thank you so much for your replies; unfortunately, another series of strokes at the beginning of May has now taken this option from Mum.

The Council, as far as I'm aware. She's recently been diagnosed as having vascular dementia and the Social Services carers have suggested she looks into it. It's a County Council-run facility. Thank you, by the way, for helping.

My elderly Mother is considering moving to an Assisted Living complex, but is concerned she'll lose her AA. Can anyone help, please?

Have just received this from HCE Group Ltd.......I really don't understand.

"As you may or may not know there is new legislation due to come into effect which has recently been laid before Parliament and effects the enforcement industry.

As of 6th April 2014 the Tribunals Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 (TCE Act) will come into force. Its aim is to ensure openness and transparency throughout the industry and particularly the fees which are charged.

We note you are on an arrangement for payment of £50.00 monthly and payment is being made to ourselves.

Please be advised that in line with the TCE Act and to ensure transparency as per the Act’s intention, in the event that you default on the arrangement post 6th April 2014 enforcement action will proceed in line with the TCE Act and the new fee structure, The Taking Control of Goods (Fees) Regulations 2014.

This means that a fee of £495.00 + VAT will be incurred upon further enforcement action commencing. You will not be notified of the default and an Enforcement Agent will look to make an immediate re-attendance at your premises.

It is important to note that you will fall into default unless cleared funds are received on the day that your payment is due. As per our previous correspondence you should allow 5 days for payment to clear and be allocated to your account. Therefore for example if payment is due on the 15th of each month we will require payment on the 10th of each month in order for your payment to clear and reach our account by the agreed date.

THE BALANCE AS OF TODAY’S DATE IS £xxx INTEREST AND A SMALL AMOUNT OF FEES WILL CONTINUE TO ACCRUE ON THE CASE UP UNTIL 6TH APRIL 2014.

Given this information we would strong

ly advise that you may wish to consider paying this case in full prior to the TCE Act coming into effect.

Should you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hi, Steve - a huge WELL DONE for saving the little dog's life. Is Petmedic a vet practice? It could be that she was actually reunited with her owners - any found dog must be reported to the local Dog Warden - this is the law - so her owner could have been traced that way, or perhaps she was chipped..........either way, it must have been horribly disappointing for you. I honestly don't think you have any comeback, though, unless money changed hands. Sorry.

I've just googled her name - OMG.

Just because they're a registered breeder, it's no guarantee they're humane - I take it this 'lady' is not Lilly Cooper? What are you going to do?

So sorry to hear about your poor pup.........you've obviously been scammed by a puppy farmer.

The pup should have the vet's name on the vaccination certificate you received at the time you collected the dog - if there's no certificate, how do you know it's been vaccinated? Dogs with heart murmers can go on to lead full lives, given good care, careful diet & meds. If you explain the circumstances to the insurance company they may offer some sort of arrangement - it's worth a try.

Perhaps Trading Standards could help? There could be other complaints against this vile woman; maybe they can track her down.

Hope all goes well for your new addition.

Very best wishes to you for a full recovery; you'll be back in no time!

Look after yourself,

Janie
