The banks are making enormous
quantities of money from excessive charges and many customers fail to attempt
to recover them. A lot of so-called penalty charges clearly do not reflect the
actual costs to the banks and are purely arbitrary and well outside reasonable
trading practices. Most of these charges are based on a computerised model as
the banks do not have many skilled operatives/managers any more but the fact
remains that their cost cutting should not be at the disadvantage of their
customers.

| Cost of landlords repairs or recovery of rent
arrears |
|
|
Tenants can be a problem
for landlords. All too often they vacate the property leaving dilapidations and
rent arrears. Often the security deposit fails to cover the cost of remedial
work and the landlord must seek remedy via the Court Service.
The
costs of remedial work can be recovered along with rent arrears. In addition
rental income lost for the duration of remedial work can also be claimed.
If there are rental arrears accumulating by tenants still in residence and
the landlord requires repossession of the property and the eviction of the
tenants please visit our web site at :
http://www.property-repossession.co.uk
.

| Recovery of un-refunded security
deposits |
|
|
Most landlords retain a
security deposit from the tenant. The purpose of this is to offset the cost of
any dilapidations or rent arrears in the event of the tenant defaulting.
Unfortunately, some landlords simply decline to return the deposit even
when the tenant vacates leaving the property in good order and with no rent
arrears.
In these circumstances the tenant should make sure that they
have a copy of the tenancy agreement, a receipt for the deposit or a copy bank
statement, a copy of the inventory and condition check duly signed and approved
by the tenant and if possible a witness. Photographs are also useful as are
cleaning bills and the rent book.
If some of the forgoing are not
available, do not worry. Just send your details to us and we will respond with
the next course of action.

| Motor accident damage claims |
|
|
Most motor accident claims
are settled by insurance companies. The majority of problems are associated
with Third Party claims. Claimants with third party insurance who are the
victims of no-fault accidents often find that their own insurers simply ignore
them and the other side fail to co-operate.
Provided that that the
other side are insured you can make a claim against the driver and on judgment
the insurer has no choice but to pay you. If the driver is not insured then the
driver will need to pay you in person. Either way, it is the driver you take
action against (not an insurer).
Our evidence page explains what you will need to proceed
with your claim - essentially you will need to prove liability and justify any
costs incurred. Please note that if your vehicle is immobilised you can claim
for loss of use, travel costs and loss of income. In addition the courts can
make an award for your reasonable out of pocket expenses.

| Unpaid wages/commissions/expenses |
|
|
Employers have an
obligation to pay contracted wages and expenses. Disputes tend to be associated
with commissions - especially where the "employee" is self employed working on
a commission only basis.
Other areas of dispute are associated with
overtime and expenses, especially if the employee has left the service of the
company.
Documentation is essential for this type of claim and in
particular the contract of employment, copy receipts, commission statements,
wage slips and personal overtime records. Most claims of this type are the
result of another type of dispute with the employer. If the Claimant has
resigned after some kind of argument then this should be identified. Even if
the Claimant has had a row with the boss wages are sacrosanct and should never
be interfered with.

| Non-delivery of goods/services |
|
|
Payments in advance for
goods and services sometimes result in non-delivery. There have been a number
of well publicised instances whereby Internet shoppers have been let down.
Advertisers on Internet auction sites have also been the subject of
publicity.
As far as the law is concerned, when you pay for goods in
advance you enter into a contract with the supplier for the delivery of those
goods. Failure to deliver breaches the contract and the Claimant has recourse
via the Small Claims Court.
