P6 Explain the law with respect to consumer protection in given situations
In this task, I will explaining the law with respect to consumer protection in a given situations as well
as understanding the impact of statutory consumer protection on the parties to a contract.
Standard from contract
Standard form contract is very common contract in the business world; it usually set by one person
(or the company itself) with their own standards terms, which is often contain terms that amount to
custom- made offers and it should be agreed by both parties and followed by an acceptance by the
other party that fit the individual’s business needs. It is important to be aware of the fact that when
the party makes an offer, the other party must accept it on their own standard form contract, which
mean that the other party has no say in the matter. This type of contracts are common in many
types of companies especially the well-known companies such as gym memberships, mobile phone
companies etc. In this case, the party, which will accept the offer, will not be related to the business,
as it will not be the one who wrote the contract with its own standard terms.
This type of contract is used in order to protect the interest of the involved parties ( buyer and seller
as well the third party if possible) to make sure that the product/service is provided and completed
on the expected time, and in case of failure, then all the staff/people who are involved will be
compensated.
Type of contract terms
When forming a standard from contract, there are various contract terms and duties that must be
included and considered by the parties involved, as they are essential parts of contract. These terms
and duties will identify the specifics tasks which will be required by each party in order completed
the job (to be a binding contract). Examples with regard to Three mobile SIM contract, the duties
and terms that would be included would be is that Three must provide the mobile service (data etc.)
from a specific date to another date, or the consumer must pay their bill on time. Therefore, any
kind of terms and duties will be discussed during the meeting of forming the contract, which will
specify what the parties can and cannot do.
Besides, the rights of parties are something that clarify what each party within a contract are
entitled for. In case of disagreement on the quality of work performed (whether a service or just a
product) or the compensation involved, the parties may agree to refer the contract to a third party
which could help to end the conflict and settle the dispute between them. Sometime, the parties
involved in a contract must discuss the parties’ rights in case of breaching the contract, as they must
know what their rights when suing one of the parties.
When the parties are negotiation on the terms and conditions of the contract, some of their
statements known as ‘representation’ will not meant to form part of a contract, however the other
things that bound the parties to perform under the contract are known as ‘terms’. There are two
types of terms when forming a contract:
Express terms
Implied terms
