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.

    thank you. if you want to address that thread, thats the place to go. all the information you need to know about this thread is here, but i guess theres too many people on this forum who just like to sh*tstir, so i guess you're really not interested in actually helping.
    Although the topics of the 2 threads are different, there is a common denominator - you.

    In each thread there are unanswered questions which are pertinent to the issue raised. Trying to get answers to those unanswered questions, in order to fully understand the context, and hence advise, has in each case been unsuccessful.

    So people use the other thread as a source to see if the context of one can assist with answering questions in the other.

    However comparing the 2 threads raises more questions than answers.

    Hence I'm out.

    there are no unanswered questions, only baseless allegations of me being a fraudulent journalist which i wont bother replying to. nice try.

    Like I said it'll cost you more than you'll win in all likelihood!

    It might be more economical to come back for the hearing rather than pay a solicitor's costs

    If all you want is a recommendation then I can vouch for Eversheds.

    Last invoice I had for them was £425 an hour plus VAT. Plus expenses for court attendance.

    HTH!
