Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

It is not worth the trouble to fight the case, which is what the company relies on. You could go to court and would probably win as t&c that are unreasonable are often found to be unenforceable. The problem is the cost of your time. Unfortunately, I tend to go to court and argue the toss. I have never lost so far.

I had an interesting case some years ago. I had a temp receptionist from an agency for a week, but had to get rid of her as she smelled of hideous perfume which I could not get her to stop using. I wouldn't pay the agency so I received solicitor's letters. The interesting part of the case was that the invoice had been factored. The agency was chasing for the money though even as they had factored (sold) the debt. It was part of the factoring agreement that the agency would chase the debt and go to court. I went to court an pointed out to the District Judge that the debt was not owed to the agency as it had been sold to a factoring company. The judge agreed. Apparently, it was the first time someone had gone to court and won in that type of case.

Yep but you can use twitter to highlite these sharp practises from these scumsters who use them.

I have 900 plus followers and 5600 0n a joint account, all I do is one short message and it goes out to all these followers who in turn can retweet it and it goes to thousands and thousands of people like a pyramid system.

1 minute job if that.

These scumsters wont like that kind of audience.

any chance you could post my gripe on twitter for me?

Well done Hays in court case above.

ps, dont you spray yourself with them male pheromones, perhaps she was trying to neutralise the smell.

Yep Cyners no probs, but make it short, only allowed so many characters, and dont libel me.

Send it on a pm if you want to me and Ill bang it on. Best time just after 12 oclock when everyones on lunch break tuning into twitter at work.

just edit my post here as you see fit

perhaps the following fits .....
CHESS TELECOM
sharp practice via T&Cs minutiae ......
contract expires, but should you not renew, Chess charges an admin fee of £99.00 (+ VAT) for closing the account
for doing what exactly????


the above is but a statement of fact

Cyners right OK will do. Ill send it out at about 12.10.

Hays its not worth fighting the case if I suppose you don't know what your doing. For me to write letters/emails takes minutes.

Also in Cynic's case they are chasing him, so should provide proof for free as they would need this in court anyway... If they cant provide the contract then clearly their is no case to warrent their charge.

Ill just see if it fits.

thanks sticky :-)

Cyners can you re do it 41 characters too many. Ive knocked off a few characters.

see below
