Wonder about the logic here? Don't! You are not suppose to use your own mind. The UK brainwashing establishment will do it for you free of charge.

The system is broken.

Our client had an interesting experience this morning - his virtual office provider asked him to accept online Updated Terms and Conditions. These were asking the client, apart from paying suddenly in $ rather than in £, to "forfeit all right to bring any legal action against [the provider] for any reason" and "make every effort to obey the rules and regulations of the BULGARIA"closing with the statement "This AGREEMENT is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the London..." Please see the photos.

Our client raised this with the provider over the phone (2 different telephone numbers and four options to choose from) resulting in being blocked by the provider and the provider by doing so, breached the contract clause.

Our client will exercise his rights under the UK laws which no doubt will bring him justice but in the meantime, it will leave him with no access to important documents and this deprivation prevents him to comply with legal deadlines regarding his business.

This case underlines the importance to read what you are agreeing to. It will be followed in more detail on our website in due time.

Our experiences show that there are many members of the public who are lost in the legal minefield. With the increasing use of IT and a demand for compliance, there is confusion about one's rights and obligations resulting in uncertainty and vulnerability. This page raises awareness, understanding and pitfalls of the UK legal system. It is intended to broaden the legal outlook of a wide public.
