Messed up my haircut, going to court

250k isn’t enough, got to be double that for the emotional stress of having to tie up ones hair.

Good point, that needs adding to the claim too.

Yes, but I was given a discount, I only realised how bad it was after getting home...

Totally the same situation.

You've been told you can and how much you should claim. Why are you focusing on the negative?

Let's all make fun of the person with a problem, I hope this made your day better.

I'm being deadly serious. Like I said they have insurance to cover this very event so why wouldn't you put a worthwhile claim in?

Your sarcasm isn't really helpful, why isn't it possible to claim for that?

Because generally courts won't entertain claims for emotional distress or inconvenience except in certain types of contracts (where the subject matter of the contract is to provide peace, relaxation, enjoyment etc) and even then, it is always a trivial sum in comparison to the actual degree of distress/inconvenience suffered.

For example a couple couldnt live in the house they had purchased for 2 years and had to travel extensively to oversee work (that shouldnt have been required in the first place) every single weekend and their marriage even broke down due to the strain caused by it. They were awarded £750 - the equivalent of approx £1 per day.

Also, any claim for "psychological pain" would require an actual psychological/psychiatric injury.
