It's in there cheers.
Does anyone know of a case to reference that would suit the following:
Signs were unclear
"The premises" isn't clearly defined.
Kind regards.0 -
Signs were unclear
Use Vine v Waltham Forest - the one they quote. Vine won the case as the signs were not clear.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
I don't know if this case would help.
When I say unclear, I mean the wording.
I'll read more incase something was missed.0 -
When I say unclear, I mean the wording.
Vine v Waltham Forest / Thornton v Shoe Lane Parking etc
No real need to press on that as it is trite law / common agreement that you cannot have a contract where the terms are unclear. Google contra proferentem.
Besides if there is no basis for their offer (a liquidated company) the wording is immaterial.
They may use VCS v HMRC (see selling Buckingham Palace) but again even that fails if there is no consideration.
You may be overthinking this one. It is likely they will discontinue last minute when you send the a copy of the SA. Your task is to get costs.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
It's nice to hear someone else say I might be overthinking it aha
Trite law was mentioned in the defence statement re the signs actually.
I'll read through that again. Cheers for the cases.0 -
Also, should the SA be served as soon as it's done?
No point delaying is there.0 -
Do it 3 days before
No point giving them chance to work out their complete f-ups either.0 -
Good shout, the last bomb shell.0

Normal costs - half day off / loss of pay, mileage and parking
PLUS
Unreaosnable behaviour costs0 -
