here are the documents from companies house about alpha-t from 2014.
http://www.xup.to/dl,23926743/alpha_t_2014.zip/maybe its of use for some people here.
at least they still defend their claims made against them. so not ran off completely.
whats strange is that some claimants get the defense of not being a uk customer and therefore claim is out of uk jurisdiction. could there possibly be a sneaky way that alpha-t is right here? cause why the heck would they else write such thing knowing this complete bullshit
That's just an answer. the answer doesn't have to be correct, but as in tennis, if you don't volley it back you may lose.
I'm not a lawyer either, and I'm not in the UK, so take this as layman's opinion, as that's all it is.
However, I recently was in court with a former landlord that rented some units to my business. We had a battle going on over some shit. Part of this battle was over venue as they tried to push it to another local county which was more favorable to them. We fought them on that and ultimately won, pushing it to a county that was more favorable to us, as our attorneys are absolute powerhouses in this county, which they knew, and therefore had tried to push it out.
Anyhow, A court can't try something unless it can be shown that proper venue is that court. In our case it was what county, in this case they seem to be trying to say that UK is not proper venue and/or the UK courts therefore do not have jurisdiction.
That's obviously bullshit. their TOS indicates UK law, they are registered in the UK, they do business in the UK (suppliers, customers etc. are in the UK which is more important than you might think) and the sale itself occurred in the UK.
If it were me I would point all of that out and indicate that therefore this is indeed proper venue and within the jurisdiction of the UK courts and provide any supporting evidence I could. I can't see a court denying itself jurisdiction of something clearly under their jurisdiction, but the way the game is played you have to tell them why. They know why but if they don't deny Alpha's answer outright on this you have to tell them why anyhow.
As some have also indicated you need a UK address also, so don't leave that hole dangling either.
(For my friend Mubasher, who is undoubtedly reading this: I told you I would stick it up your ass by helping others pull their money out if you didn't simply refund my money, as per the law, so here's another present for you, asshole.)
