Door to door sales

kleefarr

For anyone wanting to know where they stand with regard to door sales:

"The law in this case requires that the seller must give you specific information – including a cancellation form - and tell you about your right to cancel. This cancellation period must be at least seven days. The cancellation form has to follow strict guidelines setting out:

1. The name of the trader.

2. The trader's reference number, code or other details to enable the contract or offer to be identified.

3. The name and address of a person to whom the cancellation form may be delivered or sent.

4. A statement that the consumer can use the cancellation form provided if he wishes.

5. The date on which the notice is given to the consumer.

It is important to note that any contract that forms at the doorstep without this cancellation form being provided is invalid."

Could be useful for anyone else that has problems.
Import point to note is the last part..

This comes under the heading of Doorstep Selling. There is limited information on the NCA website about this, which is strange as a lot of people can get caught out by this kind of sales tactic.
