Hi Everyone I am not sure if I am in right section but here goes. We moved house on Monday 1ST June on Wed 3rd I was sorting out wiring the TV and other appliances and found out there was no aerial socket, but there was an aerial on the roof anyway. (turned out to be no good) I spoke to the owners on the Saturday who had come down to see the house they were not happy with the agent. I asked the question when you let this property was there an aerial socket "yes" the previous tenant had cable and they installed it through the aerial box and they had ripped off the cable to the aerial (you could see the clips up the wall) I rang the agent they come round. I said to agent this isn't on we have no TV in the house she said to me get an aerial installed and give me the invoice. So I done this. Aerial was installed on 17th June and cost £271 ( I was shocked ) I paid the man, aerial is fantastic and guaranteed for 3 years and happy we had TVs in the house (my 12yr son was over the moon ) I photocopied the invoice and gave the copy to the agent . I expected to get paid within a fortnight as I am the innocent party who had moved in the house. Am I right in thinking the agent should pay me back the £271 and then reclaim from previous tenant surely I shouldn't be waiting this long ?? (Aug 28) Please help would like to know where I stand on this. Thanks

Please can anyone help I would like to know if I have a case as I have a letter from Vodafone and I quote "We need to make you aware that if you do not pay the outstanding balance within 7 days, we will end your agreement and no longer provide the services to you. You would still need to pay the line rental the line rental for the minimum period -the potential amount is shown above." my way of thinking how can they charge £197 when on the letter it states £90.66 + £13.20 potential termination fee so surely the bill should be no more than £103.86 as it sates in letter ending all services and end agreement

Hi everyone I would like your views on this as I am not sure where I stand so here goes, I had a phone contract with Vodafone and I was coming to the end of my contract I received a letter of which I will add to this post and it states outstanding balance £90.66 and potential termination fee £13.20 and I quote from the letter "We need to make you aware that if you do not pay the outstanding balance within 7 days, we will end your agreement and no longer provide the services to you. You would still need to pay the line rental the line rental for the minimum period-the potential amount is shown above. Outstanding balance :£90.66 Potential termination fee:£13.20 I never paid the bill and have received a debt collection letter from FREDRICKSON asking for £197.35 as outstanding balance I have got 14 days to pay or start legal action with additional costs: Outstanding Balance to pay now:197.35 Court Fees: £25.00 Solicitor costs :£50.00 New Balance if proceedings are issued :£272.35 On top of all this, I belong to the Experian Credit Expert site and have looked at my file on Vodafone of which was updated yesterday (21/9/2014) as defaulted and owing £157.00 which is a completely different figure. my question is what should I do, I am going to add this Vodafone letter and any feedback will be much appreciated i feel the bill should be no more than £90.66 + £13.20 = £103.86 Please help thanks Paul

so what is my option should i goto court and argue it out like i say i did have a weeks car park ticket which was bought the day before, there was no spaces left and i cannot see how they can sell a large amount of tickets without the space provided and then prosecute people

please can anyone help with this letter about bylaw 14

today i have recieved this letter going on about byelaw 14 my argument is still i paid for a weekly ticket and they failed to supply the space (i have kept all paperwork in case i do goto court) i enclose image of the letter recieved pls help many thanks

i thank you all for your comments (good or bad) i have decided not to pay and if it goes to court i will go and my argument will be i have paid for a weeks parking over 24hrs previous and you have failed to supply the space but they took the money ok i think it will get thrown out and i still have the ticket i paid for

manxred I thank you for a quick response i look forward to anymore comments i feel like its legalised robbery, there are 2 carparks at ashford to do with the trainstation and together hold about 500 cars approx but they could be selling around 1000 tickets or more and surely if they are taking the money thay have a legal oblication to supply the space as you have paid for.

IMG.pdfHI I need help in deciding wether i should pay this parking ticket, i purchased a weekly car park ticket on 23/01/12 and recieved this parking ticket on 24/01/12 the scenario is i went to park at ashford(kent) trainstation and there was not 1 space i drove round and round the carpark until i had 5 min before my train turned up so i parked it in the carpark on the verge and went to work, when i returned i had this car park ticket from meteor and it stated the offence was unauthorised parking i have got 15days to pay £45 after that its £90, my argument is i have paid for a weekly ticket and they have failed to supply i would like to know where i stand many thanks paul.

hi all just a quick question i recieved a letter from shabbey and they are raising a cheque and the letter is dated monday the 25th june i still have not recieved the money does anyone know how long this process takes ?

hi meatballfluff first of all dont panic its not that scary (and i havnt been to court before until today)you will probably be sorted before you goto the hearing i have been to one today 10am abbey will settle before the hearing i recieved in post on tuesday 26june a letter offering full and final settlement and the preliminary hearing was this morning just make sure your paperwork is all complete have a read of my forum you it might help you put your mind to rest

hi petcat dont panic you have got the exact situation as me i have a large overdraft but would not pay it as the charges i was owed was far more i spoke to a girl called claire on this number (020 775 64306) i never had any phone calls i recieved a letter last tuesday offering full and final settlement i t was 175pounds shy but i was happy i rang that number and told claire i would still goto court if the default was not moved so she said she would look into it and heard wedensday eve and confirmed it was because of charges , the other issue with the cheque is same as you the a/c is open and we have no cards as abbey doing there bullying bit ordered the cards back as i was not paying any money in so cut the cards up as there letter requested and handed in all the cheque books to local branch we still do not have access online to the a/c but have asked for new cards so we can take monies out and shut them down i hope this helps try that number and give claire a bell she is helpfull good luck

hi everyone here is an update last tuesday i recieved in the post a full settlement from shabbey(i won:) :) )my only concern was that they had defaulted me and i wanted the default lifted as was caused by charges i spoke to a women called claire and told her i would settle for the amount but would continue to goto court (which was this morning) to continue gettin the default removed ( tuesday morning i was talking to claire), i didnt hear from her until 6.45pm wedensday eve and she agreed it would be lifted i am waiting for confirmation with default issue in writing , but to cover myself i still went to court to put the judge in the picture she had already recieved a letter from shabbey to say it was settled i explained the situation what was happening she has now adjurned then if i am satisfied with shabbey and i have everything in writing then i will ring the court to say that i am happy or not i think i might have a few beers tonight:grin: they are raising a cheque does anyone have any idea how long this takes!! i am really happy because i have never done anything like this before and i couldnt of managed it without this site when i get the cheque and it is cleared i will send a good donation for my appreciation and all the help i have recieved everyone should have this site in their favourites and now i am going to start with cohoot which is a part of shabbey and it will be the same people ive just dealt with i wonder if they will settle when they get the lba or will they push me all the way again
