Making money claim online

This post covers the main structure and mechanism that shows how you can claim money online, under the services provided by what it calls e-government

First of all, I want to notify the readers that this post is specifically deals with the UK’s claims; however, to some extent the procedures are the same in the US and other European countries that provided such services. So let’s start

What is money claim online?

Making an online claim for money is a service established by the government under the sector of improving e-government. This service allow to anyone to claim his/her money online by filling an online formal form (court form) asking for his/her money as a claimant

In the UK, this service is provided by the UK Government Gateway, which established a trusted website for such kind of claims (MCOL: Money Claim Online)

Before making your claim

It should be minded that this service shall be your last option, as there are other ways to ask for your money such as by contacting directly with the defendant or through mediation; whereas this service considers expensive comparing to the other procedures and the result is not guaranteed.

Online claim restrictions

1.      Your claim must be under 100.000.00£

2.      You must ensure that your claim fall under the requirements that such service require, this is the claimant responsibility

3.      The claimant must be at least 18 years old

4.      The claim must be set against no more than two individuals or organisations

5.      In the UK, the place of the claim are restricted in England and Wales, as the claimant must provide a valid postcode to the specified address regarding these places

6.       The claimant must not be getting a legal aid

7.      The claimant must not be prevented by the court from making claims, because he/she is a ‘vexatious litigant’ (someone who uses court cases to harass other people)

The requirements needed to make an online claim

1.      You should register with MCOL website:

A.      You need (first and last name and an e-mail)

B.      You must choose to register as an individual or as an organisation

C.      Once you registered (choosing a password) you will be given an ID number for the Government Gateway and a Money Claim Online customer number.

2.      You have to fill the provided form (court form). Herein, you will be asked for these information:

A.      The title, name, address and postcode of the defendant

B.      The exact amount of money you are asking for, including interest (which is 8% of the amount each year)

C.      The details of your claim (the particulars of claim). Make sure to provide as much as you can of your claim. The form is limited to a certain number of words, so if you have more details to add you can mention that in the summary you made and declare that you will provide in future more details regarding your claim. In this case, you must send these details to the court and the defendant within 14 days from submitting your claim. However, you must send to the court a “certificate of service” form

D.     Payment details (your credit or debit card details, to pay for the costs of your claim)

E.      Your e-mail address

Make sure that the information you input are correct, where you may be charged a fee in case there was a mistake

Online Business 2011 : A great new opportunity to make money online!!!

Online Business 2011 : A great new opportunity to make money online!!!

I’m writing this post to inform you all that I found the latest, real, amazing and powerful online business that can make you a huge sum of money in no time with no experience!!! (Sounds too good to be true, right??)

Do you know what I’m talking about??? No it’s not a software, system or program and it’s not an affiliate or a kind of online marketing

What you are looking for to generate wealth and happiness is simply this amazing opportunity!!! (This is a common lie that scammers use)

But, the fact is simply that any legitimate and success online business is (YOU), YES YOU!!! DO YOU KNOW WHY? BECAUSE {THIS IS THE REALITY}: ONLINE BUSINESS AND MARKETING ESTABLISHED TO REACH TO US (ONLINE USERS)

Now do you believe me if I said that I’ve just given you the main concept of how you can set a legitimate online business, (no or yes?? Please think carefully). Ok, what I’m asking is simply think about, adopt and apply these facts, steps and tips:

Ø  You are the owner and the seller (or the buyer!!!). Sell what you own or what you gain knowledge about (for example write and sell eBooks, or a book you read) in order to describe it as it should be. Acknowledge the fact that you must think as a buyer in order to sell your product, so set your business in a way that satisfied you as a buyer (is it hard to be true or adoptable? I do not think so)

Ø  Set your own online shop (site or blog), or sell through a trusty site such as Amazon or eBay...etc (you have a huge number of sites to choose from, some services might be free)

Ø  Use yourself as the only marketer or advertiser to your business before using others to promote your business (decrease the potential of abusing your service)

Ø  Do not pay to others to help you build your business, you can do it alone (search, look and read in order to develop your knowledge and skills, it might take some time but it is a great way to legalise your business or activity)

Ø  Ask for feedback and reviews to evaluate your own business, service and product

Ø  Set your own terms and conditions to legalise your business (do not set an oppressive term)

Ø  Establish a good policy that secure your users’ privacy and data

Ø  Protect your costumers (build a trust)

Ø  Build a good relation with your costumers

Ø  Act in accordance to the principle of good faith

So, is it clear now? (I hope so)

You are the business itself, the owner, seller, marketer, advertiser, builder or maybe the product... which you can control and assure its legitimacy and grant the necessary protection for your users or costumers; in which any online user may find your business realistic, legitimate and secure so he/she will advantage by dealing with such unique business. However, you may use others in futures to promote and market your business when it becomes beneficial

This is how you can gain money online (reasonable and legitimate,) by setting a small online business; (fact without any scam). Looking forward to read your comments, reviews and tips
