Bord Gais, A4V and Legal Proceeding, Advice please ?

[Door32]

Scenario

I have a Bord Gais bill outstanding now for 2 years. It stands at around €1,400.
I A4V the Bill using the FMOTL letters ,which I adjusted to represent Irish laws.
The Letters clearly outlined the terms of the Bills of Exchange Act 1882 and how it pertains to this payment.
Bord Gais have not returned the Money Order I sent their CEO and therefore have accepted it.
Bord Gais made 2 unsuccessful attempts to cut me off but could not because I would not agree to it.
Bord Gais then came in the night and cut it off anyway despite being under NOTICE not to come on my land and NOTICE that they would be contravening the EU Constitution of Human Rights
Bord Gais now have sent a letter today via a solicitor demanding payment by 12th july in full or they will immediately instigate legal procedings

Right, so what advice have anyone for me for the next step ?
Are there any good threads on here you can direct me to ?

One option I have is to write and demand re-connection as my NAME has fulfilled the contract to pay by the A4V. Is it too late for that? Do I do it as a NOTICE or just a letter ?

However what then? What happens when they ignore that too?

Can I discount the solicitor as a 3rd party interloper and if so how ?

What happens if they take it to court ?

Any suggestions gratefully received

They have no idea what I am talking about when I explain that to them so where do we go from here?

did you use their product? if so why should you not pay for it?

[Door32]

ok that was complex and would only be fleshed out in court

[Door32]

OK,

I have sent Bord Gais' solicitor Hugh J Ward (Huge Award LOL) a notice of default for failing to respond to my first notice for proof of contract and proof that payment has not already been made etc etc etc.

I have also sent their letter threatening courts and sheriffs back to them NCTRS etc etc

Bord Gais has also previously been served with notices removing right of access (which the breached to disconnect) and a fee schedule.


They just ignore it again and send me a letter thus:

RIGHTO,

Should I simply NCRTS this letter too?

Should I just send them a 3rd and FINAL notice on the strength of what they say here putting them in FAULT and estoppel and telling them to feck off and not contact me again ?

Should I respond to their new letter with conditional acceptance on fulfilling the terms of my previous notices (and if so does that just mean I need to do the 2nd and 3rd letters again..... I want to not have to write to these tools anymore) ?

Should I write to bord gais instead demanding the money for my fee schedule (over 100k now) ?

Which way would you guys go ?

[Will Mac Will]

I was with Bord Gais for a while. I stopped paying them for a year or so. They refused to zero my account when I A4V'd one of their bills. They threatened to cut the power off and then gave the order to ESB Networks who went and carried out the order. I then signed back up to the ESB.

Bord Gais then sent me a demand to send them a final meter reading. I simply returned it to sender no contract (NCRTS). Bord Gais then sent me a demand for an exhoribitant bill of c €1,300 accompanied by threats of court action and publication. I once again returned it to sender no contract. They sent I forget how many threatening letters but I simply returned them all the same way....NO CONTRACT. I haven't heard from Bord Gais again.

[Eoghan]

Will, did you A4V a utility bill, or a genuine bill (bill of exchange)?

 

 

[Mossy]

Ok, here goes what is an 'A4V'? Does it stand for 'Asked for Invoice'???

This isn't helping getting the gas turned on again

[Mossy]

What are you on about?* You want free gas?

* Could have read you wrong.

[Door32]

No, I paid for the gas by endorsing the cheque they sent me attached to the bottom of the Bill (of Exchange) so that they could collect the funds from my pre-paid cestui que vie account that is held in trust by the government that was set up using my birth certificate as part of the bank's terms for managing he national bankruptcy. As a slave my bills are all prepaid so I am simply authorising the trustee to pay from my trust to Bord Gais. The Bill of Exchange Act 1882 spells this out very clearly but they choose to ignore it. I suppose I should send it to Michael Noonan and instruct him to action it. So no, I dont want gas for free, I want to pay for it from my acount which is currently valued on the markets at 9.5 million last time I checked
