Looking for a bit of advice and not found anything relevant through the
search facility.

I have been in dispute with a company for several years now. I am
disputing the fees for some services provided (or not in this case).
Over the years, the company have regularly been sending letters to an
old address. Whilst I had mail forwarding, correspondence was received
and each time I wrote to them I used headed notepaper with my current
adddress at the time.

I offered to settle the dispute for a certain amount and that offer was
rejected. In the meantime the company started addressing the letters
with a typo in the name as well as to the old address.

The last correspondence was from their solicitors, addressed to the old
address but the postman delivered to our current ( at the time) address
and I signed for it. They included in their correspondence copies of
letters that I had never received as by that time the 6 months of mail
forwarding had finished. In those letters was an offer to settle the
dispute and I would certainly have talked with them about settling.
However, the letter was never received.

Due to the death of my partners we had to cancel trip overseas. The only
things to claim were the Easyjet flight and one night in our hotel.

Sent claim form with death certificte and usual supporting evidence
Insurance company wrote back request actual letters from the deceased's
doctors, letter from Easyjet and letter from the hotel
I did managed to get this information after a struggle
Insurance company now wants another letter stating the date illness within
the deceased was diagnosed, 2 years worth of medical records and the
prescription he is on

Another thing they are now saying in the latest letter "all pre-existing
medical conditions in a close relative must be declared prior to flying" -
are we saying that no-one can have insurance nowadays because a relative may
be get ill?

All I need is the name of right of the organisation to threaten these gits.
The grammar of the letters is also appalling which suggests unprofessional
people running the company.

Cheers

I have told my estate agent that I wish to terminate our agreement (we
are past the minimum period with a two-week notice period - sole
agency agreement). I am in Scotland.

The reason for this is that he simply hasn't fulfilled his part of the
bargain in my opinion. Not all of the agreed marketing was undertaken,
I suspect because he wanted to save on printing fees, though he has
claimed to have done so. However, one of the specified methods is to
deliver promotional cards to properties in the vicinity - probably a
waste of time but he went big on them.

We have never seen ours, or coincidentally, any others from
neighbouring properties though he insists it is one of his main
marketing ploys. It beggars belief that these are being distributed
when he hasn't even produced a sample of ours and they have never
appeared for other flats.

Okay - it's a Saturday night and I'm bored.

You see photorealistic adverts on the backs of buses, on the sides of
delivery vans. Wholesome bread from Warburtons; fresh vegetables from
Sainsbury; mobile phones from Nokia; washing machines from Comet - you
get the picture.

So, if I were a manufacturer of car number plates, would I be breaking
any law by displaying photorealistic graphics of my products all over
my delivery vans?

As I understand it from a friend who is one, partners in many of the
large legal or accountancy LLPs receive their payslips "as if they were
PAYE" - the payroll bods do a rough reckoning as to the likely tax bill
for the partner, and withhold 1/12 of that much from the monthly
"payslip", then handle the self-assessment behind the scenes. Any year-
end balancing is done automagically. It all makes sense. The payroll
trolls should have grabbed the on-account demand, but obviously missed it.

OP - don't worry. Situation normal.

I have been offered and accepted a job. As I am a foreign worker, I
would need the work permit in order to work for the company. The
company sponsored me to apply for the work permits and paid for the
cost of the application and the solicitor's fee. Now the work permit
has been granted by Home Office but the company wants to withdraw my
job offer as they found someone else to replace me. If they withdraw
the job, do I have any grounds for compensation regarding the
opportunity costs I have incurred due to the withdrawal of the offer as
I've been waiting for the work permit to come through for 2 months in
order to work for them?

Hi
I lease small industrail units. I have had a tenant who has not paid me

got a few hundred pounds. I have always been extremely conciderate to
his positin in the past and tried to give him time, support etc but to
no avail.

If it's a payment on account, you're not paying HMRC on PAYE, I don't
think.

You say LLP - are you a partner?

You haven't given nearly enough information. Was it the tax office that
sent the demand? Is it an end-of-year assessment? Did they say why it
was due? Are you on PAYE? What happened to the 6k that wasn't paid in
tax - did you receive it, or has your employer held onto it?
