    This sounds like exactely what I need - many thanks
  • Your daughter can "assign" her claim to you. All this needs is an email simply from her to you saying "I assign all of my rights under my contract with PC World to kmkmkm123".

    You can then take the claim forward through MCOL in your own name.

    You have the email if your right to bring the claim is challenged. 99% the claim would be settled before it reaches court.

    I have spoke to a legal person and they tell me that this is not correct and will not work.
    My daughter made the purchase and its is her fight.......

    Who was the legal person and what part of law was he/she trained in.There are many different areas,a divorce specialist would be unlikely to know consumer law and vice versa.
