Hmmm.

It just seems very unfair to me that somebody can decide not to pay what's owed, wind somebody up when they don't get their own way and the victim of it gets told they are harassing - for essentially 'biting'

You've said you're as bad as eachother. He clearly doesn't want to speak to you, if you persist, that is the offence made out.


You've also said you work in finance, do you really want to have a criminal record on your next DBS? Even an investigation needs to be reported IIRC.


Just write it off

CBABBS

Yeah fair enough.

Just to keep you all in the loop and show you the type of person I'm dealing with he is also flying out today, with a mate.

So he paid what I can only assume as more than what he owed me and he tried to barter with me on Friday to give him the whole package for 50% of what I paid. I was happy to sell him the whole package - at cost price.

(so he wants to talk to me when he thinks there's a deal to be done @comms69)

I want to be absolutely clear about this, so there's no doubt at all.


All he has to do is go to the police, tell them you are harassing him and the investigation starts - you will then have to tell your employer.


Even if it leads to nothing, is that the conversation you want to have?


If you feel you have a legitimate case, take it to court. If not, write it off

It doesn't matter what type of person you're dealing with.
It really doesn't.

What you should do is step away.
As far away as you can.

But I'm not sure you will, given your latest post.
I think you are obsessed.
And it will come back to bite you on the bum.

Your choice.

Except he doesn't owe you the money as there was never any agreement that he would pay you, was there?
You only thought he had to pay you after he said he wasn't going on the holiday.

Hang on guys,

I posted to ask for the advice and procedure of the injunction. Which I got,so thank you.

I haven't had contact with him in days and have no desire to contact him. I walked away long before I posted this and I'm not obsessed.

And there was an agreement - I wasn't treating him to an all inclusive holiday. I'm sure you and friends have decided to go on a holiday and one person pays on their card for the money to be reimbursed? I just wasn't so hot on chasing up the funds right away and didn't think I had a reason to. OK my bad. Clearly I don't expect people to be so mean.

I obviously trusted the wrong person. Got into a toxic back and forth (from both ends, not just mine) and was threatened with an injunction which bought me to this forum which has helped me with legal issues before.

Consider the issue well and truly left, and thanks for your advice. If I receive anything legal I will take it up with citizens advice.

Thanks all.

Injunctions are civil law, not criminal, so it wouldn't normally be in any 'record' which might affect your employment.

If he goes ahead with his threat to apply for an injunction you may be able tooffer unertakings (promises to the court not to harasshim) or agree to in junction on the basis that it is recorded that no fininding of fact has ben made. Either of those options means that the court has not made any ruling that you have done anything wrong, so even if it did come up on any checks in future you can produce the documetnation as proff that you were not found to be at fault,

If you have it in writing that he had agreed to pay for half the holiday, then send him a letter before action giving him 14 days to pay his share.

When is this holiday? Can you cancel to mitigate losses? You mention above he is flying out today so is he actually still going and not paying for it???

I'd avoid CAB, unfortunately they're overstretched and understaffed. If you have a legal question I'd recommend updating this thread

Pinkyshoes,

I wasnt silly enough to send him details or login information so looks like him and a mate have booked an additional one to spite me. Ie still antagonising me.

If he turns up at the same hotel I guess the harassment case falls into my hands.

We have had voice notes too and fro with him saying he will give me the money or other products for the sum of but I have deleted them all obviously not expecting it to go this far.
Hopefully I can retrieve them and send him an LBC if I can be bothered. Unfortunately he can't spell so is more of a caller than texter.
