I signed a contract with a datings service. Less than three days later, they said they lost the signature page and asked me to resign. I didn’t resend them anything and no service has been provided to date. However, they did hound me to send them the signature page again. Because they were so unprofessional, I decided I didn’t want to proceed and told them not to expect anything from me. 3 weeks later, the manager of the service called me and said she found the signature page and that I was obligated to use their service. BTW, when I signed the original contract she said she would send me my copy because the copy machine was broke…I know…dumb on my part. Since I have in writing that they said they didn’t have a contract….am I still bound by this contract? I did subsequently send them a certified letter after she said she “found the signature page” and said I was exercising my 72 hr. window for cancellation.

City Parking Ltd (“Parking Ltd”) owns a multi-storey car park. Entrance to the car park is via an automatic barrier. Alongside the barrier is a ticket machine which dispenses a ticket to each driver giving the time of arrival. Taking a ticket permits entry by causing the barrier to rise. Alongside the barrier is a large notice setting out the company’s charges and stating:
MOTORISTS SHOULD TAKE A TICKET FROM THE MACHINE AND PAY AT THE EXIT.
TAKING A TICKET BINDS THE USER TO THE COMPANY’S TERMS AND CONDITIONS WHICH ARE DISPLAYED INSIDE THE CAR PARK.
Inside the car park a notice exists on the ground floor that states:
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC USE THE CAR PARK ENTIRELY AT THEIR OWN RISK IN RESPECT OF THEIR PERSONS AND PROPERTY
Can anyone tell me what i can write for this? I know it is exclusion clauses, but does anyone know how i could answer it? I really do not know and need help
This scenario did not happen, it is for an exam
