Trades Gateway cancellation Help Please

[TJSykes]

hi,
my brother had contact with this company Trades Gateway they had arranged to meet at my house as he knew i would like to get some qualifications.

they guy came basically said our Country needs more welders 32,000
show a DVD with some guy tommy something well known d.i.y tv guy
ask us very simple question ask us to fill out a form saying we would pay 43 payments of £135
and a upfront cost of £60 pound
gave us both course materials and left

i written in the course matteriels

on the 20th June 2014 my mother passed away leaving me with house and about 4k bills
01th July 2014 i got a bill from carer finance 4 trade (not trades) skills ltd.
i rang them immediately and try ed to cancel she claimed it thay had given trades skills a 4k loan in my name and i would have to contact them as id passed the cancellation deadline on 21 july
so i did they said it had to be in writing an e-mail.
so i e-mail them came back as undeliverable.
all that i can think of is to send a cancellation letter by registered mail to a po box by the way

I'm sorry to hear of your loss, must be increbily difficult time for you and last thing you need is dealing with these companies claiming over £5k from you.

What date did you sign up for the course ?

Before 13th June you have 7 days, if after 13th June you have 14 days but they are the minimum - so check on the agreement - presumably he left you with a copy.

There are a lot of useful threads on MoneySavingExpert and ConsumerActiongroup

You should have had copies of the credit agreement and cancellation details after signing up - if you werent left with duplicates they should have been sent to you and the cancellation period shouldn't start until you receive those, which might be a way of putting it in your letter to cancel the course now.

Re: Trades Gateway cancellation Help Please

Hi, just wondering did this get sorted? My partner signed up last month, had loads of trouble actually accessing the course and now wants to cancel as it's more hassel than its worth.
I found the pink copy of the credit agreement, but it's not signed! Could this be a way of getting out of it?

Re: Trades Gateway cancellation Help Please

When last month did he sign the agreement?

Re: Trades Gateway cancellation Help Please

Im not too sure of the exact date. The information is at home (I am now at my dads). The only thing I can see that he has signed is just for the registration fee. His signature is nowhere on the pink copy of the credit agreement.
