Hi had something very similar happen to me, also with a colleague...

 

I sold him a car, and he said he'd give me half now, half next week.

Two months later, I was still waiting for payment.

I asked him for the keys to the car until he paid in full, but he kept stalling.....

Then I found out he was going on some fancy carribean holiday, so that pi$$ed me right off.

 

Went over to his place one night, took the wheels off.

He paid up shortly thereafter :lol:

 

He even told me he went to the police, but I get the feeling they told him to sod off :lol:

Not a good scenario... I would never have done this with someone i don't know but because its through work, known for a while i thought it would be fine..

 

Sum total paid to date

 

Im afraid the above line contains the amount of pounds and pence..

I thought you'd recieved an inital payment, surely you can demand to have the car returned being he's not paid a dime.

Im sure a 15 quid fee from the dvla gives the owners address,some old woman did it to a dick round here years ago when he was driving recklessly she turned up at his door and said shed got his details from the reg and dvla.

Exactly.

 

As I said before, I'm not suggesting violence. I'm just putting myself into this idiot's shoes ... and if 3 or 4 guys turned up and camped outside my house, for a car I've paid nothing for, I'd just hand it back (or the cash if I had it). Sounds like he's very much a 'path of least resistance' sort of guy.

The address to where the car is registered is not where he is living now.. I have the address for where he stays now following a phone call this morning..

 

I dont really want the car, i certainly don't want to have rented it out for free for 7 months.. A combination of cash and car would do but i know he has piled the miles on it...

If I were you i'd grab the car, even if it's only worth say £1500 it's a whole load more than you've currently got or likely to get by the sounds of things.

It would be a very expensive lesson learned tho!!

Any decent HR depts door should always be open for problems in the workplace

 

That was the days of 'Personnel' departments.

 

'HR' is now essentially a business within business and they only seem to care about protecting the company from being sued.
