    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above
    • In anticipation of lodging my court claim next Weds 1 May (14 days after advising P2G that was my deadline for them to settle my claim) I have completed my first draft POC as below: Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant has failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing a 8 secondhand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80 I look forward to your thoughts and comments guys! As ever, many thanks - G59    
    • Hmm, that's strange how they got my email then.  I assume the below is ok to send to DCBL, Nicky?  Hello, I am writing regarding our ongoing dispute and the upcoming court claim reference xxxxxxxx.

    • 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.

Hi

 

I have a shared tenancy agreement with my housemate. We both equally paided the deposit over 6 months ago, to the agency and have confirmation that the deposit is registered with the Dispite Service Ltd. My Housemate has now moved out giving plenty of notice at end of the 6mth SHT. She wrote to me and letting agency giving noitice to vacate the property. I am staying in the property.

 

The letting agency states that "they can only accept notice is both parties provide notice and vacate. If my house mate wished to leave the agency are unable to return the deposit to her and its is fine me to give my ex housemate her share of the deposit, she needs to confirm this in writing to the agency. Unless i am prepared to sign a new contract in my name then my ex house mate will still be liable.

 

1) Who should pay the deposit back to my ex housemate? Me or the letting agency?

 

I have a letter from her solisiter saying i she paid me the deposit and i have to pay her back.

 

2) In regards to the Tenancy agreement what happens to that now my houemate has moved out?

 

Cheers

Can you just clarify... did your housemate leave at the end of the fixed term (at the end of 6 months), before the pereiodic started?

Then unfortunaltey the letting agents are spot on, your house mate couldnt end the tenancy on their own at the end of the fixed term, it would require both of you to have served notice. The earliest that your house mate could have left by serving an individual notice would be at the start of the periodic to leave after 7 months. If you wanted to you could require your house mate to pay for this additonal month if you where inclined to do so as they are still liable.

 

I think you need to speak directly to DPS and see what is going to happen, your ex-house mate is going to be in their rights to request the deposit bacck from DPS now. Either way you are going to be left with having to find a replacement 50% deposit.

I have spoken to the agency today, and as i thought they would not go with another option i thought of which was to pay them half of deposit and them and they pay the ex housemate the half. As as you state the deposit is held with the DPS scheme so they refused to pay the ex housemate

 

The agency did say that she would have to confirm in writting that this has been done and she is happy that i am resposible for the full deposit.

 

1) my worry is i am relaying on her to send this letter and i end up paying her the half and then when i eventually leave i will only only get half deposit back?? I have no evidence that i have paid her.

 

2) there is also the matter of the outstanding utility bills that we have accounts with jointly. I am going to pay my half and have given the utility companies details of my housemates solistors for billing

Yes, definatley dont pay anything till you have proof that all the bills are paid up. To be honest i would sit tight for a minute and not do anything.

Are you on good terms with your ex housemate?

Please note, my advice is only my opinion.

If you have found my advice helpful, please tip my scales, thank you
