    There is a European SCC if they fall within that jurisdiction

    But how does that work if you have to actually have to have a hearing. The rules were changed back in januaray last year to include Eu but not sure how it works

    The service is provided by the district court in Ireland.. It sounds like they attempt to resolve cases via mail, but if a hearing is needed, then I would assume it would be held in Ireland.

    Do they have any presence in Ireland; Sales office, service desk, customer service call centre ?

    If its the parent company, not a contractor, you may have an avenue.

    Yes, the EU equivalent of small claims. Download the form, fill it in and register it in a District Court. From personal experience that resulted in a cheque in the post - probably cheaper than their having to pay lawyers etc to defend it. If a hearing was definitely required, I'd say you'd just have to attend your local District Court to answer a few questions submitted to them.
