    • thanks ae - yes  I understand the claims are between me and the lender.  But with regards to the order for sale the judge specifically said it is the receiver who is appointed to sell - and he hasn't/ and isn't - which is why I am asking if I can apply to the court v the receiver for an order for sale right now?   The receiver is not part of the current proceedings heading to trial.  But he is responsible for selling the property - and he has consistently rejected offers over >5y.   This is specifically why I would like to understand if I can apply to the court to enforce the sale ??? As above - The judge has said otherwise the order for sale v the lender has to be dealt with via the trial.  Which they have deliberately delayed via the adjournment. Valuation is an issue. The lender chose the valuer.  I paid but his report basically belongs to and is referred to by the lender.  He did a prof valuation without doing a site visit.  He had done a site visit 5 months earlier for different potential lender.  The 1st valuation he erroneously did as fh.  He just did a re-write 5m later - but kept the same value for lh. I had a great offer on the table from a niche buyer which would have cleared the loan and given me a lot of £s.  But the lender rushed through the repo and the buyer got spooked and ran.  The lender then slashed the price by 30%+ from their valuation (fire sale price?).  As you suggest - they fully expected potential buyers to quickly grab the property at such a discount.  But it turned out they couldn't.  The market had dropped anyway. Then covid hit.  Every potential buyer was questioning the valuation.  The lender and receivers actions have eroded the equity.  This wouldn't make sense to any normal lender.  99.9% would have just sold to the 1st buyer willing to transact.  The lender/ receiver had such a willing buyer on day 1 of marketing.  But they spent 15months trying not to sell to them.  As I said, disclosure shows the ceo wanted (wants?) to keep it for himself - so common sense didn't (doesn't) prevail.   The lender has made a MoneyClaim v me.  I am disputing it because I maintain it is their actions that has caused the erosion of equity/ a debt to accrue. The lender's problem now is that they have spent so much money and added so much interest over 5y that they cannot sell the property for what they need/ want.  They are trying to blame me for this.  But it is their fault; not mine - because I am not in possession or in charge of selling it. As I also said above - if there is some legal reason why I cannot make an application to the court for an order for the receiver to sell - then can I ask the other entity which has a charging order and threatened to do so. ???    
    • We registered our child with a nursery last year for a June 2024 start date. This was before how the new 15 hours free childcare was going to work. At the time my wife paid a £50 deposit. A few weeks ago they sent out an email about how the new funding was going to work. The nurseries can use it as they wish and they said if the child wants to come for one full day we still have to pay £50 and we can't use all the hours for one day. They also drastically increased their day rate. As a result of this we were looking elsewhere and have found a much cheaper nursery so we are changing.  The original nursery now said you only get the deposit back if she starts because it comes out of the first month of fees. I don't think we filled any any form or anything so there were no terms and conditions. Are we entitled to get the deposit back or is it our fault for not asking what the terms were when we paid. 
    • Hi Baldilocks. Welcome to CAG. I've done some minor formatting edits to your post to make it easier to read for people on mobile. Try to keep to 1 or 2 sentences max before creating a line break in your post. It's the Consumer Rights Act 2015, not the Sale of Goods Act 2015. The Consumer Rights Act 2015 superseded The Sale Of Goods Act 1979 and the latter does not apply as I imagine this purchase was made after 1st October 2015. Can you confirm the make and model of the vehicle? Some vehicles have their service history stored within the on board computers now or have it available to view online at any point. How did you pay for the vehicle? Finance (what type), Debit/Credit Card etc? I would argue, that should the above points not be correct, you would be right to claim that the goods are not as described under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.  
    • Thanks everyone for all your help, but unfortunately my case was dismissed. This is the 2nd time I've had this happen now so I doubt ill be taking on any parking firms in future sadly. The judge said I lost it on the grounds that the sign said I had 28 days to declare who the owner of the vehicle was, and said I should have complied with this.  My costs are Judgment for the claimant £133.33 Issue fee Hearing fee Solicitors costs - total £265 grand total £398.33 Do those costs look about right?

    • 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...please bare with me i'm new to all this...didn't realise how many ppl were in debt in britain :(!!

 

Ok I have been with rbs for atleast 10 years if not more. I had a student current account with an o/draft of £1400. I was due to finish uni this year but dropped out last year etc

 

I did go into RBS and tell them but the woman said my account would change over automatically so i never thought any more of this.

I now work full time and have money paid into my account every month. I have direct debits and bill paid out of my account every month and definately have not gone over my overdraft in the past year.

 

I had just recently (literally days before) had a direct access savings account set up and had advised when setting up the account to take £160 out each month to save on the 1st of every month. As the account wasn't confirmed until this time or perhaps a day or to after i did not think the payment would come out. After paying my rent, bills etc I did not really have much money left in there...maybe about £100.

on 3/3/10 i went to buy some food before work and paid by card but my card was refused. So i went to the cash machine and it said i had nil. I checked my online banking and basically the £160 had tried to come out of my account. I waitied until the next day and tried to draw out some cash (4/3/10). The machine then swallowed my card!!!!

I phoned my local branch and they said there were no problems with the account and they would send me a new card. 5 mins later i received a call from a lady at the branch (possibly a manager) and she said that there were inconsistencies on my account and that rbs would send me a letter detailing this and i could get in touch, sort it out and have my card back.

 

I couldn't wait so the next day 5/3/10 i phoned back....after been thrown from one person to the next i finally got a number for the account closures team....they said my account was to be closed and they could not discuss the matter with me. no one explained what was going on.

The £120 i had left over from my wages was then taking off me leaving me with a balance owed to them of £1280.

 

There was nothing i could do with them until i received this letter. I received a letter saying my account was closed due to insufficient funds in my account and i would have to go elsewhere for banking etc.

 

I do not understand at all!!!!!!!!!!!1 my account is now closed. I am waiting to open a new account with someone else.

I have not made any payments to the account as i do not have a card to pay to their 'online repayments service'....

today i received a letter saying that...."formal notice of intention to file a default and to take action to recover the debt"

I dont understand how i can get a default for this as i have not defaulted as such....i can pay back in monthly installments but not fully...

 

Sorry for the essay...i am so confused....HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek:

have you asked for statements so that you can see what has caused the bank to think there is something wrong and that you can dispute?:mad:

 

Also, if you want a bank account that has an overdraft and debit card facility rather than a basic account which doesn't, then make sure you set it up before the bank places a default on on your credit file. You won't be able to get an account with these facilities if you get a default.;)

 

Personally, and bear in mind that I am a very embittered ex customer of this bank, I'd change to another bank anyway.8-)

The only reason it could be is this transfer of funds to from my account to a savings account. i already have defaults on my credit report so im screwed really?

Can they place a default on my file because of this? I am so confused!

Yes they could place a default on your file.

Please be aware that I am not an expert on this, any advice I give comes from bitter experience and advice I've received from fellow caggers.

 

My advice is firstly - set up a basic bank account with another bank. That way you will have access to your next month's salary and you can transfer your direct debit mandates so your bills will get paid. Secondly - if you need a debit card - set up a prepay debit card account - you deposit some money on the card and then you can use it like any other debit card for shopping etc. but you can't go overdrawn. Thirdly - ask rbs to give or send you statements so you can work out what they've been doing with your account, work out a budget to see what you can afford to pay rbs monthly to pay off your overdraft. You might be able to stop them placing a default on your credit file if you do this quickly but I don't hold out much hope of that.
