Charged for nothing
On Wednesday, we agreed over the phone with Andrew that the Settlement Agreement with work will be signed on Thursday. £150 plus VAT. I got email with my bill from their office.
Thursday, we connected to TEAMS and he says his camera is not working, so we will talk on the phone. Then he asked if I have signed the key forms, so I say that I don't have any. From his office didn't send it because it forgot, and it only sent me a bill. Next, Andrew told me he didn't even look my work contract and laughed. Also that tomorrow MAYBE at 10.30am he will call and we will finish the signing Settlement Agreement.
However, Friday I received key forms to sign and I asked when they will call me, instead they sent me same bill to pay for yesterday's call. However, I said that I will not pay until Andrew gets his work done.
In the evening, Andrew wrote to me with a large email that I showed dissatisfaction and was connected to the MEETINGS 5 minutes earlier, which leads to the payment much more plus VAT.
(I felt very pushed to pay the money)
So I answered him that he was late and did not do what he promised to do on the same day and I wasted my two working days looking for a serious solicitor who can do the work.
I wish everyone not to pay in advance because it will drag on like that. And the payment can be made within 28 days after the invoice so don't get trapped.
Good luck!
