    • Thank-you dx for your feedback. That is the reason I posted my opinion, because I am trying to learn more and this is one of the ways to learn, by posting my opinions and if I am incorrect then being advised of the reasons I am incorrect. I am not sure if you have educated me on the points in my post that would be incorrect. However, you are correct on one point, I shall refrain from posting on any other thread other than my own going forward and if you think my post here is unhelpful, misleading or in any other way inappropriate, then please do feel obliged to delete it but educate me on the reason why. To help my learning process, it would be helpful to know what I got wrong other than it goes against established advice considering the outcome of a recent court case that seemed to suggest it was dismissed due to an appeal not being made at the first stage. Thank-you.   EDIT:  Just to be clear, I am not intending to go against established advice by suggesting that appeals should ALWAYS be made, just my thoughts on the particular case of paying for parking and entering an incorrect VRN.  
    • you can have your humble opinion.... You are very new to all this private parking speculative invoice game you have very quickly taken it upon yourself to be all over this forum, now to the extent of moving away from your initial thread with your own issue that you knew little about handling to littering the forum and posting on numerous established and existing threads, where advice has already been given or a conclusion has already resulted, with your theories conclusions and observations which of course are very welcomed. BUT... in some instances, like this one...you dont quite match the advice that the forum and it's members have gathered over a very long consensual period given in a tried and trusted consistent mannered thoughtful approach. one could even call it forum hi-jacking and that is becoming somewhat worrying . dx
    • Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant .... I said DCBL because I was reading a few threads about them discontinuing claims and getting spanked in court! Meant  YOU  Highview !!!  🖕 The more I read this forum and the more I engage with it's incredible users, the more I learn and the more my knowledge expands. If my case gets to court, the Judge will dismiss it after I utter my first sentence, and you DCBL and Highview don't even know why .... OMG! .... So excited to get to court!
    • Yep, I read that and thought about trying to find out what the consideration and grace period is at Riverside but not sure I can. I know they say "You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is"  but I doubt they would disclose it to the public, maybe I should have asked in my CPR 31.14 letter? Yes, I think I can get rid of 5 minutes. I am also going to include a point about BPA CoP: 13.2 The reference to a consideration period in 13.1 shall not apply where a parking event takes place. I think that is Deception .... They giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other! One other point to note, the more I read, the more I study, the more proficient I feel I am becoming in this area. Make no mistake DBCL if you are reading this, when I win in court, if I have the grounds to make any claims against you, such as breach of GDPR, I shall be doing so.

    • 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 All

 

I am desperate to get in touch with CEO of Virgin Holidays (i'm not sure if it's richard branson or not)

 

I have a complaint and whilst the telephone operators tell me that customer relations is the best section to write to when I do that I get a response from Reservations - which as you can guess when it comes from reservations doesn't answer my complaint and just instead tries to get me to pay them more money.

 

I have richard bransons email which is for virgin atlantic but the automated repsonse says that if the feedback is for virgin atlantic he will ensure it gets to the right person any other companies i.e. virgin holidays should be contacted directly.

 

Hence my search - can anyone help?? Even if someone can provide me the CEO/Directors name that would prob help as it's generally first name.last [email protected] - however [email protected] doesn't working - making me think he is not the CEO.

 

Thanks

I emailed her and the next day had a phone call from someone at her office.....but basically still got nowhere!

 

There customer service leaves a lot to be desired!

Andie,

 

I am taking them to court, My hearing is on the 8th June 2010.

 

And i agree there customer service is terrible.

 

Wow - I hope you wipe the smug, we are better than you, smiles right off their faces.

 

They have treated me like rubbish - it was a completely different story when they were taking my £6k off me when I booked my honeymoon!

 

I rang them as in between booking and now my son has been diagnosed with a medical condition which means i will have to take pretty hefty medical equipment on the flight and I will need space to give him medical attention during the flight.

 

You wouldn't think this would be a problem for an holiday company that says in their brochure they help all disabled passengers.

 

Well they didn't feel the need to help my son and actually told me that I would be liable for excess baggage on his medical equipment and if I wanted more space I would have to pay for an upgraded seat there and back for us at the bargain price of £2199!!

 

How very helpful!

Hi sexyfufu

 

I have just spent ages reading your thread!

 

Eerily similar I am also going to Disney for my honeymoon - though thankfully a different hotel!!

 

I'm not going until next July but booked in April this year.

 

It seems I have the same person dealing with my complaint as you had - her name is mentioned once in your thread....and I must say (rather sarcastically) she is a great help!!!!

 

For me as a gesture of goodwill they will allow me to cancel without losing my deposit.......

 

What an absolute joke...I told them they put their financial gain in front of their customers health and this is shameless profiteering - something they have failed to contradict me on.

 

Well on the bright side I have managed to get the exact same holiday with Thomas Cook for a lot cheaper than Virgin so I will be speaking with the helpful lady in the managing directors office on Tuesday to request an immediate refund.

 

I just don't know how they can get away with such things!
