    • Hi Lolerz Thanks for replying to me, yes I've been ignoring her & will continue to do so. All she keeps saying is they want to come up with an amicable settlement. Keeps saying this to our receptionist she shouldn't be saying this to a receptionist or even me in the first place as they have given no proof of anything no IP addresses noting just keeps saying about an amicable settlement.
    • If a DCA supplies a reconstituted copy of the CCA what would be the next step? It seems that a reconstituted copy must be a " true copy " of the executed agreement, it must contain the Prescribed Terms. But given that there is no copy of the applicants signature surely it could be an agreement form with the details filled in. How can it be assumed that this " copy " represents a true copy that the claimant has supposed to have signed. Cabot have demonstrated a bit of sabre rattling when they say "Until we're able to provide this information , your account is unenforceable. This means we're not permitted to obtain a County Court judgement against you . Whilst we cannot pursue legal action, your balance remains outstanding ". I looked up a case... Cabot UK Ltd  v  Bachellier (2010) which might help, but it's tough reading, I'd prefer to plough through War and Peace. This particular case with Cabot is not huge , approx' £140, but the only other worry that I have is also with Cabot...£2100. They may try to make a point with lesser case.
    • you'll never find a court open on a w/end MB. all courts are closed Good Friday and Bank Holiday Monday. However as Andy points out, that does NOT mean you get 2 extra days to file, you get one, same as xmas/new Year. UKPC have not filed their, so no rush on yours as dave says.

    • 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.

It gets better, if I choose all parties to choose from:

 

green 72%

libdem 61%

BNP :shock: 48%

UKIP 43%

Labour 42%

Con: 38%

 

The fact that BNP and UKIP should score so high proves conclusively that this test is a crock!!! :razz:

Hello Rooster,

 

I don't know your circumstances, but if you contact your local candidate they should be able to offer assistance in this.

Well mine comes out with Conservatives first, Lib Dems not too far behind and Labour in 3rd. I didn't pick any other parties.

Before you criticise another man you should first walk a mile in his shoes. Then, when you criticise him, you'll be a mile away and he won't have any shoes on.

 

Don't get me confused with somebody knowledgeable by all those green blobs. I got most of them by making people laugh.

It's not only the problem of getting there. Once there, it's a matter of getting from the road to the actual station which is tucked away in the middle of a school. There's nowhere along that route to sit down and rest my leg.

Apart from that, the swollen foot prevents me from getting my shoes on. I'd look a right divvy, hobbling along in my slippers. :lol:

 

Anyway, I'm confident that my choice of party will win, whether I vote or not!

I'm Plaid Cymru but have Labour and Green Party veiws as well.

 

Plaid Cymru will DEFINITELY not be getting my vote. Mind you, that could be because they don't have candidates in Dorset. Now why is that? ....

Was watching the riots in Greece on TV today-The people are angry at the ultimatums.

One woman said-"We are being asked to take a 30% cut in our wages-yet our country is spending millions on 2 new Warships from France"...why do we need Warships when we cant afford to live ?

 

She makes a good point.

 

France of course is the biggest exporter of weapons so will obv want to see Greece survive so they get their money.

 

Germany meanwhile says that Greece should comply with the IMF package or leave the EU-but its not so simple.

 

When the EU's membership was only 8 or 9 then things were a little different-and hop long did it take Italy to get membership ?

The Mafia had to abandon their guns and come to the table-much the same as happened with Adams and McGuinness.

 

We have UKIP and the BNP saying that we are better out of Europe-yet we still have our Pound and in spite of that suffer the same as the rest.

 

We would do better out of Europe if we still had a good manufacturing base and did not rely on China-but no one can complain that a set of knife and forks from China cost a fiver less than those made in Sheffield.

 

Our Government paid Nissan millions in grants to build a factory in the North East-they allowed the Indians to get Jaguar Landrover for a song,our British Mini to go to BMW and Rolls and Bentley to go to VW and BMW.

Our heritage.

Our manufacturing base has gone-ok replaced by IT but we dont even have a look in there-LG was given millions in grants from the GOV to open a factory in Wales !

 

We have trained Doctors and nurses to people from abroad at a cost of millions-only to see them leave the UK for better wages later.

 

Whichever party or leader gets in-is unlikely to change much-we are stuck with Europe and if we do pull out then we would prob be worse off in the long run.

 

Chinas economy grows by the minute-and props up the US debt mountain of trillions-Russia s cosying up to China and supplying them with millions of tons of wood from its forrests,steel,and Oil.

 

Anyone who thinks the recent talks of cutting back on nukes has been a success between Putin and Obama will prob be unaware that Putin has increased defence spending by 800%-builds new subs,re-introduces flights over Europe with the menacing blackjacks,and orders new ships from France-so to hear Clegg talk about scrapping our deterrent which has kept the Russians off limits since the 70s will no doubt be a blessing to Vladimir.

 

Many Eastern Europeans will be praying for a hung result-knowing that the Dollar will prob rise against the £

 

The Poles here in particular since the dollar is still favoured against their currency as it is in Russia and Ukraine.

 

In fact the only problem will come with their flights....if the ash cloud stops Ryan Air or Easyjet cheap flights to Krakow or Warsaw-then they will have to spend a few more nights watching Jeremy Paxman grilling the winner.;)

Ah BUT....if they came under attack-the worlds Mafia and all the dodgy leaders who have dosh there-would have their armies there in no time.

The Swiss know that-they dont need to pay big money on their own defences.
