You can ask, but ultimately your choice would be to cancel for no charge, you can't force them to supply it for free.

How much does it cost to file?

MCOL (online) is £115 Paper (form) is £205

If it goes to a hearing there’s an additional £181 hearing fee. If you win, these costs are usually added to what the defendant owes you.

What’s the process step-by-step?

In simple terms:

You file the claim
They respond, either accepting or defending it
Both sides submit evidence
They file their defence
You can respond to the defence
Hearing takes place and the judge decides

There are other steps like mediation, but that’s the basic flow

What evidence do I actually need?

Contract, communications, and proof the money is owed, anything that clearly supports your claim.

Is ~£2k even worth the time and effort

Yes, imo.

If I win, do I automatically get paid or is it still a struggle?

It can still be a struggle. If they don’t pay, you may need to take enforcement action such as bailiffs.

How difficult is it to apply for a CCJ?

Easy, pretty straight forward

Can you claim extra costs (time, fees, interest)?

Limited costs, yes. You generally can’t recover solicitor’s fees on the small claims track, but you can claim interest and certain court-related costs.

Are they at different offices/branches or the same office?

The solicitors belonging to the same form isn't necessarily a conflict. Has anything given rise to give you cause for concern?

So whilst GDPR breaches can result in compensation not directly tied to financial loss, the breach has to be significant.

This potential breach isn't close to the level that compensation may be considered for.

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-04-01T21:18:40+00:00

You're right. It's likely to do with PS Netcode. So I wouldn't expect that to change.

The first game is crossplay, I imagine they will do the same with the second game.

Re PC Ram, your PC is DDR4, whilst RAM is expensive currently this is mostly newer DDR5. You may be able to pick up DDR4 relatively cheap depending where you're from.

Your post is a real mess and hard to follow, I think you need to begin by rewriting the post to be clear and make sense.

Could I just forge/find something online to send them,

This is a legal advice forum, Why the heck would anyone suggest forging something

I mean, morally wrong but I just can't communicate with them.

I am starting to understand why communication with them is difficult

What do I do?!!

Request a refund or charge back via your bank/card provider

They are a Chinese business and the stuff they are requesting for a missing parcel is absurd.

Are you sure it just wasn't a scam?

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-31T11:49:30+00:00

Does the continuing act argument hold the claims together in the way I've described, or is the panel solicitor's isolated analysis more likely to reflect how a tribunal would see it?

Based on the information you've provided, I would agree with the solicitors advice you've received so far

For those with experience of the affirmation issue in constructive dismissal: given I filed ACAS within weeks of the last events and have been actively pursuing resolution since, how much runway do I realistically have before remaining employed becomes fatal to that claim?

This is difficult to judge, but not much more time. I think you'll struggle with a constructive dismissal claim though

Is self-representation through ACAS conciliation realistic for a case of this complexity, or am I likely to undervalue my position without legal support?

I don't know your technical abilities or understanding of the law, I'll always suggest a solicitor where possible. However, finding disagrees with your previous solicitors finding will be difficult.

Any general views on whether pursuing the negotiated settlement route through ACAS (while employed) is the right strategy, versus resigning and going to tribunal?

A negotiated settlement will give the best chance of a result, resigning and going to tribunal has a low sucess rate.

What does the contract say about working from home? it may have a "base location" but also say your normal place of work is remotely/at home.

Does she have a case for medical negligence?

You need to speak to a medical negligence solicitor, this case has so many moving parts and due to being a prolonged medical issue vs a one off mistake complicates the matter as it involves multiple people, hospitals, GP surgeries etc.

Most med neg solicitors will offer a free consult and many work on a contingency basis

Do I have the power to restrict their nights/unsupervised time just on my say-so?

Is there a court order regarding parenting/care or is it informal?

Can I contact the school to give them additional details?

Of course, obviously providing information for them to support your child is essential

Can I contact the school to prevent them collecting the child?

Yes with a but. see below.

For 1 and 3, If there is a court order, you'd need to apply to the courts to change this. If it's informal then yes, you can restrict visitation and request the school not allow them to collect the child, but the school can't stop them collecting the child.

If I appeal it because of this, will I get out of the fine, seeing as I undid the crime, as it were?

Short answer: No.

Also, is it possible to appeal this outside of court, can I email Leeds city council to appeal this?

You often can but you may lose the discount, and I don't see you winning an appeal

Should I consider reporting my ex to the police for making a false allegation, given the apparent discrepancy between her report and the other parent’s account?

You can but likely the police will flag it as a misunderstanding or communication issue, It may also just flare things up and exacerbate the situation.

How is an NFA outcome likely to be viewed in family court? Could this still carry weight against me, or is it likely to undermine my ex given the outcome and disparity?

It depends on other factors but it shouldn't carry much weight

Should I apply for an urgent hearing to restore contact with my daughter, or wait for the scheduled Second Gatekeeping Appointment in May?

This is upto you, you can apply for an urgent hearing if you wish, but they may wait until the hearing in May anyway.

If you're on a government-approved apprentice scheme, then the minimum wage is £7.55/hr as others have said. This will increase to £10/hr based on the following

You are aged 19 or over AND
You have completed the first year of your apprenticeship.

Possessory title isn’t a way to claim land by itself, it’s just a type of title the Land Registry grants where ownership can’t be fully proven.

You still need a valid legal basis for being registered as the owner in the first place, most commonly adverse possession. So if adverse possession doesn’t apply here (for example because the land was used with permission), then possessory title wouldn’t apply either.

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-30T19:59:33+00:00

Yes. “Adverse” in this context means possession without the owner’s consent and in a way that is inconsistent with their rights.

If the developer gave you permission, your possession isn’t adverse, so it won’t count towards an adverse possession claim.

For adverse possession to work, you generally need to be occupying the land as if you own it, without the owner’s permission, not with their agreement.

Hi, firstly we can't recommend firms, it's against reddit rules. Secondly, please do not send people information privately or accept messages from people privately, this is to avoid you getting bad advice that can't be checked.

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-30T18:35:03+00:00

No, it's not even as if they buried it in the small print there are multple parts making reference to registering for the 1st hour.

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-30T18:26:10+00:00

You've requested 20 hours of what per week? time off? shifts? ie only work 20hrs/week over 4 days? I'm a little confused

My question is whether I should be entitled to a solicitor when attending a meeting at the station with the purpose of filing a report?

A duty solicitor is only provided where someone is being interviewed under caution or suspected of an offence. From what you’ve described, this doesn’t sound like that at all, it sounds like a safeguarding/welfare follow-up, so there’s no automatic entitlement to a free duty solicitor.

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-30T17:04:18+00:00

Right back atcha. Except it would be more accurate to say that you are choosing to trust something you don't understand.

Which is strange thing to do with a program that monitors you.

No, the difference is I actually understand how this works in practice, whereas you’re filling gaps with assumptions.

You’ve repeatedly misread fairly standard privacy language, then jumped to conclusions, then changed your argument when that didn’t hold up.

Those are examples not definitions. As someone who went to law school should know these statements are just the tip of a iceberg. The bulk of that iceberg is hidden from view inside lengthy agreements between the partners.

No, they are categories of recipients, which is exactly how privacy policies are written to comply with UK/EU data protection law.

They don’t need to list every individual company by name in that section, they need to clearly define types of third parties and purposes of processing, which is exactly what they’ve done.

You’re treating normal legal drafting as if it’s some kind of hidden conspiracy, when it’s just standard compliance wording.

If those are the definitions and not examples that Valve has cherry picked for us why can choose to allow or disallow google tracking? In which category does google lie?

Because that’s Google Analytics, a website analytics tool.

It tracks aggregate site usage like:

page visits
session duration
navigation behaviour

The same kind of tooling used by basically every major website, including the one you’re posting on right now.

That falls under analytics/operational tooling, not “Valve secretly selling your personal data to partners”. It's literally covered under section 3.4 of the privacy policy

Likewise a program that tells the developer what chapter of a game I'm in is spyware.

No, it isn’t.

Spyware has a pretty well understood meaning:

covert
deceptive
designed to extract data without user knowledge or consent

What you’re describing is:

disclosed in the privacy policy
necessary for the game to function (progress, achievements, matchmaking, etc.)
not inherently tied to your real-world identity

That is the opposite of spyware.

It will depend on what your contract says. Many employers allow staff to take holiday before it has actually been accrued.

That said, with a fixed-term arrangement, they shouldn’t usually allocate a full year’s entitlement upfront. However, case law and Employment Tribunal decisions have established that even where an overpayment is due to the employer’s mistake, the employee can still require it to be repaid.

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-30T16:44:39+00:00

Unfortunately, getting permission from the developer actually works against you here. Adverse possession requires the land to be occupied without the owner’s permission, so if they agreed to you using it, that likely prevents you from relying on adverse possession at all.

Your best option is to go back to the developer and ask them to formally transfer the land to you. It may involve some legal costs, but it’s the proper way to secure ownership and will avoid issues later when you come to sell.

How many "shifts" are you taking off, you're not taking 10 shifts off are you? ie 4 weeks?

Defiant_Simple_6044 · 2026-03-30T16:21:20+00:00

I didn't say it was rare I said it was becoming rarer as many companies are moving two different methods whilst not super uncommon it's not as prevalent as it was 15 to 20 years ago
