PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned.

    You try to help and show the law, and perhaps suggest by implication that they are in a very weak position, and the snipers snipe.

    You're welcome, good luck to the OP, at least I tried.:cool:
    Stop! Think. Read the small print. Trust nothing and assume that it is your responsibility. That way it rarely goes wrong.

    They are not in a weak position at all (and if you are going to threaten people with law then its best you are well versed on it else it can be construed as threatening behaviour, harrassment or blackmail), your grasp of the law is what is weak in this case.

    If the mail is delievered to the address then unless intent to act to a persons detriment can be proved (good luck in that, unless its a spiteful ex and you have a recorded history of them intending to do so) then there is no violation of this law.

    People aren't sniping, they are just giving the OP the true facts of what can be achieved.
