So much better! Much more powerful.

Add the usual section about costs and the WS statement of truth (sign & date under that).

A nice example of a non-templatey - Equality Act based - WS that tells the story but makes it hard for the Claimant to justify. They can't say "we didn't know about your daughter's condition" because that's only a defence against an accusation of direct discrimination (which you are NOT accusing them of).

Be aware - if this ends up at a hearing - that a judge Is just a jobbing solicitor who will be interested in the point of law you are taking him/her to, but probably won't know the ins and outs of the EHRC CoP.

Thing is, it's a statutory CoP (not Guidance) so a breach by a trader is an offence! And a term relying on an unfair fixed time limit is disproportionate and unenforceable.

What happened?

FIGHTBACK ALERT - just days to go:

Please do the government's Public Consultation. We need every poster to complete this vital survey before the deadline next week. See this thread:

We understand that you may need some pointers. It looks laborious, we get that. It doesn't matter; no knowledge is needed except re your own experiences so you can call out a scam industry and you'll protect millions of motorists and help change the law. 

I've written some guidance to help focus new posters on the issues. I've covered almost every question, providing ideas if you agree with our stance on things like DRFs, which we say must be banned.

Ordinary people like you are falling victim to this scam over 18 million times per annum. Motorists need your voice added please.

CLOSES ON FRIDAY 26th SEPTEMBER.

Finally received my notice of discontinuance here. Unfortunately, I've also got another airport drop off charge. Ho-hum, one door closes, another door opens. Many thanks to all, particularly Coupon-mad.

Thank you @Just_Cruising for the copy of your NoD. I can now get this counted in the DCBL Legal thread of shame. 👍
