    This looks like it might be a 'service related to leisure activities to be supplied on a specific date', and as such is likely to be exempt from the cancellation provisions provided by The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

    Boom

    Thank you. I emailed him the link to the regulations with an attachment highlighting this area. I wasn't a !!!!!! about it though and expressed that I would have loved to use his postbox but with the wedding costing over £15000, I need every penny I can get. having one for free by the decor and venue people is a bonus.

    He emailed back agreeing and stated that it only asks for a fair cancellation fee. Which it didn't. However, he has waived it as a 'goodwill gesture' and wished us all the best on the bog day and I have thanked him.

    Thanks for the help. This forum never fails to provide much needed help

    I think you missed wealdroam's point!

    But a good result nonetheless. Hope the big day goes well :)
    One important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.
  • Good achievement, well done :)
