Rainbow941 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Yesterday I got a reimbursement of an over paid bill. I thought at the time we'd paid too much. It was a legal bill. I looked at it as I'd rather pay too much. Turns out it's $400 overpayment. $200 me, $200 for my ex. We spoke about it when we were together a fortnight ago, and agreed to use it to do something together with it being a good amount of money. Now he's ended it again. He spoke to the lawyer and asked her to hand the money to me (the law firm is right down the block from me) rather than post it out to him so I can hand it over personally and get him to sign the form or whatever it is we both need to sign. Seems an odd thing to do when he could just call into their office and collect it. So now I have his money. They've emailed him to say I have his money. So he knows. Ugh. Why is he still trying to mess with me? Link to comment
rosephase Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I wouldn't assume that he's trying to mess with you. Breaking up involves a period of time when you are sorting out your stuff. If the money is a check put it in the mail. If it's cash drop it off at his place or work when you know he won't be there. Link to comment
Rainbow941 Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 This is the issue. The lawyers offered to put a check in the mail, but as I live within a 10 min walk I told them I'd collect mine. He then emailed and asked for them to release it to me and he'd get it off me. It's no closer to get it from me and we need to sign a form. So he HAS to see me. We've been split since last June, but put legal proceedings in against our old landlord. I can't just post it!

milly007 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Can't you just get a friend to have him sign the form and give him the money? Link to comment
HeartGoesOn Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Unless you're looking for an excuse to see him, (no offense intended), why not turn it back over to the attorney and sign the forms separately? Link to comment
Rainbow941 Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 He's specifically asked for me to pass it on. The lawyer asked him numerous times to come & collect it from their office on my request so I don't have to see him. She says he was adamant to sign it out to me & he'd collect it from me himself. With no reasoning! Link to comment
kbbcoop77 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Give it back the the lawyers let them handle it..keeping any contact is pointless Link to comment
ThatwasThen Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Unless you're looking for an excuse to see him, (no offense intended), why not turn it back over to the attorney and sign the forms separately? I agree with this. Why agree to even get involved. Just refuse to take responsibility for getting HIS money to him and let him get it himself. End of. He's specifically asked for me to pass it on. The lawyer asked him numerous times to come & collect it from their office on my request so I don't have to see him. She says he was adamant to sign it out to me & he'd collect it from me himself. With no reasoning! Simply refuse to get involved. He nor the lawyers can force you to do HIS bidding. Link to comment

With no reasoning! So? Just because he's saying that doesn't mean you have to do it. You are not responsible for him and his ability to perform basical tasks. Link to comment
milly007 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I agree with the others. Just because he has requested this does not mean you have to do it. Ask someone else to meet up with him or for your lawyer to handle it. To be honest, it sounds like you're looking for a reason to see him. Link to comment
Wiseman2 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Walk it right back to the lawyer and have them send his portion to him. Meet at the attorney's office to sign the form. No do not give it to a friend a or drop it off to him at home, work, whatever. Do nothing where he could claim "he never got" it or things that involve middle men. Do this the right way at the lawyer's office since you are both dealing with this attorney for the same action. Why can't you sign the form then leave it at the attorney for him to sign?I live within a 10 min walk I told them I'd collect mine. He then emailed and asked for them to release it to me and he'd get it off me. and we need to sign a form. We've been split since last June, but put legal proceedings in against our old landlord.

Ms Darcy Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I agree with Wiseman. Do it through the lawyer so he cannot claim he never got the money. Link to comment
