Hi all,
Looking to get a steer as to whether I am on shakey ground or not.
Signed up to a 24month agreement- sponsoring a golf club via a 3rd party.
Long painful story short, all 18 sponsors made complaints within 6 months of the agreement starting as the deal we were sold, which was sold as a "valued sponsor" of the club and a relationship with the club- was not in place.
Various threats of small claims were made- no-one followed through as the 3rd party were happy to go to court to fight and we are all sole traders or small companies and the agreement is nothing but a list of contact information- nowhere are the deliverables spelled out other than in every sponsors' personal notes.
I too gave pre-action notification wanting a refund for non delivery of contract as agreed. The advertising 3d party said they were arranging a meeting with the golf club marketing manager as they indicated the relationship wasn't what it should be.
I left them to get back to me and asked a few weels later how it had turned out- zero response and I didn't follow up. The quarterly information that we should have been getting through the 24 months never arrived, our advertising came to nothing, and so this issue has gone from my mind.
Until now- when looking at the original agreement I note it automatically renews for another year unless either party gives 6 months notice.
I am too late to do this and am having kittens thinking I am going to be shelling out more money for something that was not fully delivered in the first term of the agreement.
Any ideas where I stand? Many thanks
