  1. Why didn't you check it yourself at the time? Have you any proof you were told it was not affected?
  2. Might be under old rules. Might be with a court order. Might be a trading address. There can be lots of reasons for the above to have happened.
  3. Of ge is just storing tools in a third party lockup and trading from another location, we wouldn't be able to access the lockup without a separate court order which costs in the region of £500 win or lose. A hceo can ONLY enforce where a debtor resides or trades from.
  4. If the lease was registered and sold on as part of the house estate after the death, then no, I dont think you can just cancel it.
  5. No, its more likely his ebay account was hacked at the same time his PayPal was. Then the item is sent to the hackers drop address and the owner of the account realises someone has fraudulently used his account and starts a chargeback. Its unlikely the account holder is at fault save for not having enough security on his account. PayPal didn't do anything wrong. The OP DID do something wrong by sending the item to an unknown address. I'm sorry, but yes, I'm defending PayPal here. The last thing I would imagine the OP wants now is the police knocking at his door asking why he is releasing sensitive personal info onto the web in retaliation. The OP needs to leave this to the police or start a court claim against the buyers account to get to the bottom of the matter. The absolute worst thing he could do is start some sort of web based hate campaign against what could be an innocent party and shame on you king for recommending that course of action.
  6. If he is limited, its likely the assets belong to him personally and he leases them to the company. If they are owned by the company, they are probably on finance the same as his van. If he has a 10k van on finance, its almost guaranteed his 20 30 40k worth of machinery is too.
  7. PayPal acted correctly and told the OP not to post to other addresses. The OP made the mistake and is suffering the consequences. That's fact, not fiction.
  8. This could be a genuine case of stolen identity and yet you are still willing to put someone's safety and that of their family in danger?? Let the police and/or the courts sort it out would be my advice. Ebay name...yes. Addresses and names....i would be very VERY careful.
  9. Just ask them before they enter if they intend to take pictures inside your house and state that you do not consent to it. They can then load mattress back on van and you are free to shop elsewhere. Its just their prof that the have not only delivered, but I would guess installed the mattress. Had same thing when gas man installed cooker. He took picks of cooker space showing gas lines etc and then cooker installed in space. Its because some people are sc***mers and the delivery agents need to protect themselves.
  10. If I buy a car, I pay a large deposit and then balance before delivery. Does that mean that could be fraud? A lot of businesses require payment in full for a product or service before it starts.
  11. I think you will find it comes under causing harassment alarm and distress to sit and watch s debtors hour like that if caught. Or are you saying that a dca can sit outside your house just watching you until you pay up and nothing you can do? Fraud is a bad thing yes, but wasting police time by confusing fraud with genuine civil claims is just ruining it foe those that actually need the police. Now if the op has ANY proof of fraud whatsoever, then fine, tell us what it is and we can advise. But having ten people in the same boat isn't proof. That's just proof a company failed owing lots of people money.
  12. Where so the proof they were aware. Hoe do we know everything was going great an then the bailiffs went in on a ten grand warrant and cleared the company out? Where is the fraud there? You see what I mean. You are going to have to prove some sot of fraud to the police to get them on board. Not all money going missing or not paid back is fraud.
  13. The problem is, it may not be fraud. It may be the debtor set up a normal business and something went wrong and the business collapsed. That's not fraud, that's just bad luck. That's why, until some sort of proof of fraud is supplied, the OP can only look at the court option.
  14. The OP and her friends will find themselves on the receiving end of an harassment alarm and distress prosecution for that. The police wont storm someone's house just on the info given so far.
  15. So you say in one breath there is nothing left on the system to check, and then in the next breath you claim it is on the system for three years so can be checked. Which is it? I hate misleading information. I know it stays on the local authorities data base for 3 years as if you are caught in the same area speeding within that time frame, they wont offer the course.
  16. Really? A secure website so it cant be hacked? Enough storage for what could be thousands of documents a year and backed up storage space. The day to day running and monitoring of said website. All for £50 a year? Just to "assume" it could be done as a normal course of the days admin is wrong. It need to be done properly or not at all. We here slag off all the companies that dont do it properly, and now you are thinking like them. And then, dont forget the data protection issues of what is actually on the receipts. You really haven't thought it through. Its vary naive to think that's how it can be done. But feel free to try it that way.
  17. So you could scan, sort, file, add to the account books, add to an online account and then maintain an publish a website for £50 a YEAR? Wow. The charity I work for have 4 full time employees in the account dept looking after this. Yes, maybe if you had a business that only employed you and only had 1 or 2 reciepts a day. Understandable. But a charity is a business. Sonyou have staff, so you have a HR dept, an accounts dept, a management dept.. That the care minimum to keep a large charity or business afloat. Like I said, some people think they could run a charity on nothing. Naive thinking that is.
  18. Oh, and charities do keep accounts. And the charity commission can inspect them at any time to look for issues. If you believe a charity has acted wrongly, you can report them to the charity commission. Its not cost effective to collate and publish accounts. For a lot of charities, the few thousand that it would take to sort an accountant just isn't available.
  19. You would still need someone employed part time to collate,scan and publish the receipts from the charity and also a contract for someone to run the website. As a director, you wouldn't have time for that yourself. So there goes another £20k of donated money.
  20. There are 1000's of charities that are highly praised. Some people are just perfectly happy to tar a whole community due to a few bad apples.
  21. No, peaceful entry is just that. The EA has peacefully gained access without using force on the locks or by using a method not allowed. If the debtor kicks off once the EA is in, then it has nothing to do with the entry and the debtor will cause a breach of the peace if threats are made or assault/obstruction if he/she tried to manhandle the EA out. This had been tried and tested in court many many times.
  22. Pull the other one. It has bells on. Is that better Andy? I'm sorry, but king is essentially saying that anyone running a charity is a sc**mer and I find that highly offensive.
  23. So go and get the skills and qualifications to run your own charity. Work 12 or 15 hour days every day and dont pay yourself. You do that, and then come back. The guy running the charity may well be able to earn ten times what he earns now if he ran a fully fledged business, but he doesn't, he runs a charity, full time. I'm not saying he is legit, but I'm not saying he isn't. People need to be paid, and if you don't have someone with the correct qualifications and experience running a charity, the charity WILL fail. I know first hand that there are dodgy charities out there, but don't slag off genuinely hard working folks if they earn what they deserve. I know a full time solicitor that works solely for a charity, used to earn upwards of £200,000k a year and now earns circa £100,000 a year. He took a £100,000 a year PAY CUT! But the charity needed a full time qualified person for that position. Come on mastermind, you tell me what they should have done in that situation? Take on a non qualified 18 year old school leaver on minimum wage to do his job instead? Or better yet, put an advert out "fully qualified solicitor needed for xxxxxx law area. No pay or benefits of any kind". I dont think so. Charities are businesses. They have to be. Otherwise they wouldn't work. Also, I know a charity that spends 100's of £1000 on advertising every year. But its advertising its services to the people that NEED the service. That money has to come from the charity source, and therefor, you have probably lost 20% of donations right there. You tell me how they should keep getting the word out about themselves. If its one thing that annoyes me , its people that think they can do better, but sit on the sofa all day and just gob off about it. And yes, I do work for a charity in my spare time, as a VOLUNTEER!! But I appreciate that those at the top earn big bucks to work full time to keep this particular charity alive and kicking for the greater good.
  24. Because they have been GIVEN it. Its very difficult to gift something to someone and then take it back.
  25. Just listed? If they are 50 50 on the deeds, then they are entitled to 50% of the sale price. The only other thing you could try is to sue them for upkeep and repair costs and take that from their portion of the sale value but I would suggest seeking further advice on the intricacies of doing so as it may include charging orders etc.
