    • Good afternoon, I am writing because I am very frustrated. I received a parking fine from MET Parking Services Ltd , ( Southgate park Stansted CM24 1PY) . We stopped for a quick meal in Mcdonalds and were there fir around 30 mins. We always do this after flights and never received a parking fine before.  Reason: The vehicle left in Southgate car park without payment made for parking and the occupants southgate premises. they took some pictures of us leaving the car. i did not try and appeal it yet as I came across many forums that this is a scam and I should leave it. But I keep getting threatening letters.  Incident happened : 23/10/2023 I did contact Mcdonalds and they said this:  Joylyn (McDonald’s Customer Services) 5 Apr 2024, 12:05 BST Dear Laura, Thank you for contacting McDonald’s Customer Services. I’m sorry to hear that you have received a Parking Charge Notice following your visit to our Stansted restaurant.   We've introduced parking restrictions at some of our restaurants to make sure there are always parking spaces available for customers.   We appreciate that some visits such as birthday parties or large group visits might take longer and the parking restrictions aren't intended to stop this. If you think your stay will exceed the stated maximum parking time then please speak to a manager in advance.   Your number plate is scanned by our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system when you enter our car park, and then again when you leave. If you have overstayed the maximum time allowed, you will not be notified straight away- a Parking Charge Notice will be sent to you via the post.   If you feel that a Parking Charge Notice has been issued in error, please contact our approved contractors who issued the charge in order to appeal the charge. Unfortunately McDonald's are unable to revoke parking tickets- the outcome of the appeal is final and cannot be overturned by McDonald’s.   Many thanks for taking the time to contact McDonald’s Customer Services.   Can someone please help me out and suggest what I should do next?  Thank you 
    • Good Evening, I've got a fairly simple question but I'll provide some context incase needed. I've pursued a company that has operations in england despite them having no official office anywhere. I've managed to find a site they operate from and the papers there have been defended so I know they operate there. They've filed a defence which is honestly the worst defence ever, and despite being required to provide their witness evidence, they have not and have completely ignored the courts and my request for copies of it. I'm therefore considering applying to strike out their defence on the grounds the defence was rubbish and that they haven't provided any evidence for the trial. However, it has a trial date set for end of june, and a civil application wouldn't get heard until a week before then, so hardly worth it. However, my local court is very good at dealing with paper applications (i.e ones that don't need hearings, and frankly I think they are literally like 1-2 days from when you submit it to when a Judge sees it. I'm wondering if I can apply to strikeout a defence without a hearing OR whether a hearing is required for a strikeout application.   Thanks
    • I have just opened another bank acc with lloyds (i have a few already) After doing some research they may have some relation to tsb or be apart of the same group will this cause me issue if my salary is paid into my lloyds account? Also, if the debts do go into default and nothing is paid then after 6 years it all goes away? As the DCAs cannot do anything? I do want to start paying in like 3/4 months or do you advise I leave it if it goes into default? again sorry for all the questions, i am just processing everything

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hello,

 

Can someone help me as when i was at school the school allowed me to go out of school alone with a peado every friday during lession time to go in to town centre with the peado without any supervision at all and without telling me about his background.

 

Also i was forced to live in the school house where the peado was living when i was there and he kept hugging me in the living room when i tried pulling away from him he got tighter i could not phone anyone to report this either as i was not allowed to leave the school house site and they would leave a phone near by they kept locking it in the office :(

 

When at the school house they also allowed me to stay behind at school with the peado and walk back with him in the dark down alleys , over railways and down dark roads alone.

 

I was abducted once before when i was younger on my way home from middle school and the peado took me back to his flat and tried doiing naughty stuff this one was reported to the police but the police have not taken this one seriously as they have not told me if the peado has been caught or not.

 

Will i be able to sue the council for the breach of safety on the school peado case?

 

Will i be able to sue the council and/or police as the other peado case as was not treated seriously? :(

 

Sorry if this is in the wrong place as am not sure where i should list it.

Hi,

to your first point. It's unlikely the school knew about this man. I'm assuming it was a long time ago as there is now CRB checks for anyone who works with children.

If this guy has been subsequently arrested and charged or even just a caution then he will be on the system somewhere. You can ask the police if they did charge him over your original complaint. Whether they'll respond is another matter.

There have been cases where children in childrens homes have been abused and they sued their council but again that would depend on whether other people have complained as usually one persons word against another is very hard work.

If you can remember this guys name then perhaps you could search the net for news stories which may relate to him.

good luck and I'm sorry that this nasty piece of work was allowed anywhere near you.

the school peado was aressted after asking the head teacher to call the police as he should not have been working with children. However he was taken to court over it after police found he had a stash of children pictures under his bed of children that are and/or was at the school house but the court released him without charge :(

 

the other peado from when i was younger he did a runner and last i heard police was searching for him.

 

The school was at fault for recent peado case as they should have never let me out with him without supervision. I have spoken to the headteacher of the school and has asked me to go see him in the hopes will make things better but this will never make anything better knowing i was in the hands of a second peado after what happened with the first one :(

 

So surely the school was in breach of their safety procedures so they should accept they are liable to be sued for this.

My gut reaction is to go to the meeting but to take someone who knows of what happened as a witness to what is said.

I think a visit to the CAB is also in order as they will have a list of solicitors who will give a 30 minute consultation free and they may be able to advise better than me.

You could try a complaint to the council but I really don't know how that will pan out. I do know that they don't like adverse publicity.

Unless there are lots of people that have been abused by the "school paedo" and a solicitor would agree to a group action where he gets paid his costs from the other side then going it alone could be expensive.

Sorry that I can't be more help to you.
