Funniest Client Enquiries

This one cracked me up this morning...extract from second email contact with a couple from Leicestershire...

"my husbands hobby is using alot of electricity, do you think it would cost less in Spain"

Now that is a strange hobby methinks!! Can you imagine a conversation in their house..

WIFE "Are you going to induldge in your hobby today dear".........HUSBAND  "yes I´ve put all the lights and electric radiators on...ahhhh it´s a great hobby this....i might plug my drill in in a bit"!

ROFL..ROFL..ROFL..

Surely you have asked what the hobby is as they may need 3 phase electricity!!! Im dying to know!!

I decided I don´t want to know - at first I assumed his hobby was that he liked using electricity, I never thought for what???

Well I need to know in case theres a way I can reduce my leccy bil........................

Good Afternoon all,

Been busy today,had to write 2 articles for magazines and thet are being edited today!

At least someone recognizes talent and wisdom when they see it.

Also had clients today wanting to buy something,bloody cheek!

Don't they realise i have the forum to keep an eye on.

A question to predominantly Rixxy,Gillespie or anyone legally minded.

I have a client who has signed a reservation contract with another company and is unhappy with the service and feel they were pressurised into the sale,they have paid the €3000 but only they signed the reservation contract not the sales person!I have tried to call my solicitor for help but they have gone home.Do you think this would stand up or do they have a chance of getting it back?!I have never come across this before.

If anyone cares the fridge is on life support at the minute but it doesn't look good!I may have to break the bad news to the toaster!

Please help

Regards

Georgia

Hi Georgia,

 

Re your unhappy clients, it will really depend on the contract and its terms. Was it a contract signed in Spain, and if any of the actual clauses have been breached by the agents.

If its just they are unhappt with the agents tie then that will not entitle them to the deposit back.

Did they pay it by credit card or was it cheque or cash.

If you can find out a little more then that would help but if only they felt pressurized and now regret signing and paying then they wont really have  a leg to stand on.

And once the agent has the dosh then possesion is nine tenths of the law. Even the fact the agent hasnt signed their side, he Im sure will have signed his own copy which will be the one taken into a court room.

 

Thanks Rixxy,

That's what i thought.

Regards

Georgia

Hi georgia,

How long has it been since the clients paid the reservation and signed the reserva?  I take it it´s a resale.
