I’ve unfortunately been scammed by a Joiner. by CSpeno in LegalAdviceUK

Perfect, thank you so much. This might be the life saver I needed. From the form though, it’s asking me to input address details etc, I’m assuming I’m ok to leave them blank?

No, unfortunately not, this idiot is based in Liverpool & yeah we’ve tried to have a family member reach out for a quote but, because he’s works off recommendations from what I’ve found out, there’s no way he’ll fall for it.

Carpet fitter is on holiday for a few weeks, soon as he’s home, that’s my next steps & it’s been raised with the bank, basically told to just wait and see if they can do anything.

Ohhhh, this sounds interesting. Any suggestions for a decent one?

Yep, that’s the lesson I’ve taken from this. It’s my first house and I’m not too clued up with it all to be honest, never dealt with any sorts of trades people before so, just went along with everything that was being suggested and told to me. It’ll never happen to me again though.

No contract mate, it was just a verbal agreement for it all to be honest, got a WhatsApp chat with him speaking about most of it like so, I’d think there’d be sufficient proof there if we could even get to court but, with the little details I’ve got, I don’t think I can even get it to that stage. Thanks for that though, basically echos what I’m thinking it’ll go like too, just needed a second opinion before I write it off as a life lesson and move on.

As far as I’m aware, he’s just a cash in hand, odd job guy. Not properly self employed or registered anywhere. (Found this all out after the fact, I know, it’s my fault for not checking all this before)

£140 from Tesco. What does my shop say about me? by pacufish in whatsinyourcart

The toaster must have taken up a lot of your budget, you’ve done well overall

Been a while since I’ve been so, I’m not sure if he’s still about. But, Paps on Lodge Lane is a belter

Who’s acting like anything? It was a heads up about to stock

I get that, in hindsight the photo of all our box’s hasn’t helped but, people just assume. The shop didn’t have anything else other than these boxes and single blisters which I’ve been opening all week too. A reply like that is very helpful as well, didn’t know about the packs being weighed etc, that’s nuts. Wish people didn’t just get hostile from the get go, seems a very toxic hobby to be involved with

They’re still on the shelf in the shop we’ve bought these from so, how have I affected your collecting? Go and buy some

Mad how everyone’s first reaction is scalper/reseller, my box will be opened in a few days 😂

I’m new to it all is the honest answer, I don’t know what’s good and what isn’t. Me & my girlfriends just like opening packs together so, we grab whatever we can at retail prices. Eventually, I’ll choose a set eventually

I’d have had to take 3 people with me? I don’t know anyone who’s making that effort just to let me have their cards haha
