I started a claim against a hotel who were allowing vagrants to stay and who were so noisy I had to leave almost immediately after arriving.
They refused to refund me, despite my obtaining CCTV footage using Data Protection Act to show the partying in the corridors, drug use etc by these vagrants in the hotel corridors.
Started the claim. Cited compensation due for breach of DPA (initially refused to send the CCTV footage until the ICO told them to) and breach of contract/consumer rights act. Claim was for £300 total (£100 room refund, £200 breach of DPA).
The money claims online website cut off the end of my particulars of claim (I added interest, then removed this - this deleted my last sentence in which I state that second head of claim is for breach consumer rights act). After claim was begun, I immediately emailed this last sentence to MCOL.
Judge in the allocated court in Newcastle missed this email on the file and dismissed the claim as "no legal basis presented."
I immediately made an application for relief from sanctions, pointing out the above.
Judge at the hearing who wholly unfair. Would not allow the application.
So I started an appeal.
Then the Court "lost" the appeal and it took months for them to lodge said appeal.
The result of that appeal is attached, redacted.
Very odd, as stated my POC do not mention a breach of DPA or claim relating to, when they clearly do.
I am super angry. Can anyone advise what is going on and how to proceed? I won't just drop this. I have done everything right and the court is being completely unfair in not letting me have my day in court. I have a mountain of evidence against this company.
P.S. I cannot add attachments? Can someone make it so I can?
