Sadly not much. Although if you catch the Judge in a bad mood, they are often quite happy to make awards to take into account the hassle.
OP - did you buy as a consumer? If so, the T's and C's are likely to be challengable in any event.0 -
I would write back to them asking them to send you the signed copy of the contract where it stated that there would be this extra charge.
I would also ask them for the exact extra amount they supposedly gave you.
I'm quite sure they're hoping the "letter before action" will be enough into scaring you into paying the £20!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
As pinkshoes says.. A letter like this before action should put them on the spot - it should look bad for them if they don't produce this and then go ahead with a court case and ambush you with the info later. So keep a copy.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0
