Hi. I almost got involved in this but pulled out in time when I found out about it going down like a sinking ship. My problem is that when I discussed the deal with the Agent at the time he spoke about a reservation fee of £1000. I told him that I didn't have £1000 to gamble with then he said the beauty of the deal was that I wouldn't have to pay it. I stupidly signed a slip of paper saying I would be liable if I decided to cancel. He told me at the time it was just to speed the process up and keep his bookkeeper happy. Now he is taking me to court as I refused to pay it to him. Has anyone else experienced this when discussing it with their agents. I would really appreciate some feedback. Thank you in advance.
I wouldn't do anything. Just ignore all communication except for things you have to attend like a court summons.
I doubt it will go to court, they wouldn't have a leg to stand on as they were deliberately mis-informing you. They are just trying to bully you out of money.Faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.0 -
