RLP Civil recovery shoplifting

[atticus]

Have you asked your solicitor for advice about a plan, or were you just "sort of expecting" one?

Could you update your case please? How is going on now?

Hi All,


I’d appreciate the help. I CANT ATTACH THE LETTER, IT SAYS I DONT HAVE PERMISSION, VERY IMPORTANT TO SEE THE LETTER. HOW DO I SHARE? THANK YOU



PLEASE READ THE ATTACHED LETTER. THEY ARE NOT STANDARD LETTER

I stupidly took some items from Waitrose and got stopped, been a very difficult time the last 2 years but, no excuse and my fault. I didn’t admit anything, and the staff were polite. Went into the back room, and they took some items from the bag in the trolley, gave me the items I’d paid for and asked me to sign a one page form stating that I’m banned and they may pass my details on. If I didn’t show them proof of address for the form they said they would have to call the police, the policy is to confirm the address or they have to call the police. I supplied the address as didn’t want the police involved so had little choice.
The above happened on 22nd November and the letter attached is dated 16^th December but, arrived today 7^TH February.

This is not a standard letter, or doesn’t seems so, and they are asking me for £6,741.27 as they state the cost of goods is £67 and 80 odd visits to shop over x period means I took this amount every time so £7k. They refer to other items they say I have stolen on visits following extensive review. Please read letter.


I am very worried the reasons that this is not the standard copy letter (has been written) plus the amount.
Can’t see any up-to-date posts regarding this company (RLP) so would appreciate some current advice.

Thank you all.

How long did you have to make the payment something like this happen to one of my close friends and he is in the stage 1 day after they issued the ban in the backroom but he has not received the letter yet. Did they let you finance it or have you sorted out the matter and what if you didn't pay this fine?
