    I would say under the misrepresentation of information act you'd be within your rights to take some form of action. The statement they made wasnt false but you did rely on the information you were given. If you werent given all the information at the time and it wasnt written in your contract then you should have grounds.

    "Misrepresentation is a tort, or a civil wrong. It means a false statement of fact made by one party to another party, which has the effect of inducing that party into the contract. This also means that a misrepresentation can create civil liability if it results in a pecuniary loss.

    For example, under certain circumstances, false statements or promises made by a seller of goods regarding the quality or nature of the product that the seller has may constitute misrepresentation.
    A finding of misrepresentation allows for a remedy of rescission and sometimes damages depending on the type of misrepresentation.


    Misrepresentation is one of several vitiating factors which can affect the validity of a contract. A misrepresentation occurs when one party makes a false statement with the intention of inducing another party to contract. For an action to be successful, some criteria must be met in order to prove a misrepresentation. These include:

    · A false statement of fact has been made
    · The statement was directed at the party
    · The statement had acted to induce the party to contract.

    Its worth reading up on.

    No, it's not. :o

    In an interview situation over a year ago how on earth could anyone prove anything was said anyway ?
    There is a race of men that don't fit in; A race that can't stand still;
    So they break the hearts of kith and kin, and roam the world at will.
