    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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,

 

My situation is that I have been made redundant via voluntary redundancy. Does anyone know if this still allow me to claim Job Seekers Allowance, or the fact that I volunteered for the redundancy excludes me.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hello. This is the directgov website page and link to jobseekers information. Hope it helps a bit.

 

Jobseeker's Allowance

 

To find out about Jobseeker's Allowance, who can get it and how to claim online go to Jobseeker's Allowance.

 

 

 

 

I could be wrong, but I'd say if you're redundant it may not make a difference if you've volunteered for it. But have a read of the website and someone with more knowledge than me will be along soon.

Thanks again Honeybee!

 

Yeah, I had a look at it earlier. It does not seem to make any distinction with regards to redundant or voluntarily redundant. I guess maybe its all the same in their eyes. Lets see I guess.

This question doesnt really get a yes or no answer....it all depends on a few things.

 

Your advisor would look at a few things:

 

1. If you didnt accept redundancy under voluntary terms would it then have become compulsory redundancy?

2. Were the redundancies due to your employer moving the premises you work at to another part of the country that would be impossible to commute to?

3. Would you still have a job if you hadnt of accepted the redundancy?

 

Some advisors refer all of the claims that go through them to the decision maker for LV (leaving voluntarily) decisions and some advisors use a bit of discretion.

 

If the advisor refers your claim to the decision maker what happens is they send a form to your previous employer and one to you, you both answer the questions as to why and how the employment ended and the decision maker then decides if you have purposefully made yourself jobless. Again they use some discretion and it helps if you and your employer says the same thing.

 

It is always worth putting your claim in because this decision is not usually made until all the information is in which can take weeks. You will be paid (if you qualify) jobseekers allowance until the decision is made. If the decision maker finds in your favour then nothing changes. If you disagree with the decision you can always appeal against it providing further relevant evidence to back your argument.

 

If you do put your claim in and they stop your money after a couple of weeks you still get a couple of weeks of benefit that you wouldnt get if you didnt claim and also even when your money is stopped you can still get support from the jobcentre to find work or attend training courses if you want to retrain or try something different.

 

Hope that helps

Thanks Monx!

 

Any idea if sharing data with said advisers/decision makers would amount to a breach of the Compromise Agreement with my former employer.

 

Agreement makes exclusions for sharing data with:

 

- HRM Revenue and Customs

- Legal or Professional Advisers (providing the keep info confidential)

- Insurers

- Recruitment Consultant or Prospective Employer

 

I'm guessing said advisers/decision makers would fall in to the "Legal or Professional Advisers" category.

 

Cheers!

Hi BugBear4

 

A compromise agreement is different than redundancy under voluntary terms.

 

This used to have an impact because of the rules around accrued holiday pay and pay in lieu of notice as these used to affect when your claim would be paid but this is no longer the case.

 

I assume that your employer wanted to end your employment and as such rather than going through the redundancy route they paid you a lump sum, part of which was to compensate you for your "loss of office" which used to include said holiday pay and pilon payments..as they no longer affect the claim, as long as you bring a copy of the agreement to the initial claim interview where the salient points can be photocopied it shouldn't affect your JSA claim (as long as it is contribution based and not means tested income based). Your compromise agreement may say that you cannot share the info in it with a variety of offices but it is the only way your claim can be assessed and any employer who has gone down that line before would know this.

 

The jobcentre takes claims evey day that involve compromise agreements and there has been no problem before.

 

Hope this helps.
