    • They have defended the claim by saying that the job was of unsatisfactory standard and they had to call another carpenter to remedy. My husband has text messages about them losing the keys a second time and also an email. What do they hope to achieve??? Most importantly,  as far as I have seen online, now I need to wait for paperwork from the court, correct?
    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. 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. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

    • 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, be greatful for any advice.

 

i'm about 9mths into an 18mth contract with 3 mobile.

 

want to give the mobile to my daughter to use and have signed up a new contract with t-mobile (for my sins).

 

3 mobile point blank refuse to give me a pac code unless i cancel the contract.

 

i have explained to them (3 mobile) i want to keep the phone and continue paying the contract but want my number i've had for 10 years on my new phone.

 

i asked to speak to complaints but they dont appear to have one nor seem interested.

 

can anyone advise?

Cannot be done. There are technical issues and as it is your number that defines the contract, if you wish to modify this, then it impacts directly on your contract. They lose many customers this way, and are aware of the shortcoming, but there's little that can be done.

 

Since you already have taken out a new contract with T-Mobile, and have a number allocated, they may not even take a number from 3UK if already activated with a T-Mobile number (assumng 3UK would release it).

 

I would certainly not give any child a contract phone over pre-pay, it is YOUR neck on the line, and the only benefit is unlimited calling with no credit limits. How safe is that? 3UK can only conver from contract ot pre-pay (or vice versa), or issue a PAC to close the contract. This latter option will be the only way to go.

Just a thaught (and assuming the contracts are similar), unlock both phones and use the three sim in the t-mobile phone and vice versa?

When you port a number the contract associated with it has to be terminated, it's one of the rules surrounding number porting published by Ofcom.

 

You can't have a PAC, port the number and keep the contract active. Also 3 can't change your number and then give you a PAC for the old one, you can only transfer currently active telephone numbers.

 

It would probably be possible for them to allow the port and then reconnect your contract with a different number for the remaining months, it depends on how helpful 3 want to be.

It's not that odd, giving a child a contract phone is a risk, a very big risk!

 

You see some real horror stories about kids with contract phones, they run up bills of thousands of pounds which you as the parent and contract holder are legally responsible for paying for.

Contract phones are dangerous for anyone to have. If they get stolen they can get £1000's run up if not noticed for a couple of days, and the customer is liable for the calls until they notify the operator, and still people view the main risk of the phone being stolen as "loss of an expensive handset" :rolleyes:

Welcome to the trap.

 

It has nothing to do witrh the RESPOONSIBILITY of the child, they may well act with care and consideration. You remain exposed (as does your credit file) if any of the following take place, NONE of which are attributal to any fault of the child;

 

1) Receipt of premium rated texts (user cannot control or stop if the sender does not act)

 

2) Handset is stolen or misused by 'friends'. THe resulting costs billed remain your responsibility.

 

3) Contract users are deemed to be over 18 (for obvious reasons). As such, there is no block on inappropriate web addresses or premium rated telephone numbers.

 

4) As in (2) but any delay in reporting a missing mobile (say after a long weekend) rmay result in calls abroad to the sub-continent until the network realises there is a problem, or you hit a notional credit limit of £2k.

 

All of the above mean the contract holder is fully liable, as they are resoponsible at all times for usage and misusage, I'd say by not protecting your investment you were being reckless, yet you think it has all to do with trusting a family member? It's everyone else that you need to be wary of!

 

The protections offered by pre-pay are worth their weight in gold, because you cannot lose anying more than the money you paid. A contract sets you up for a BIG fall.

 

As to your last point - clearly you think pre-pay is somehow worse for her?

OK back on track, was the t-mobile contract ordered online or over the phone and under 7 days ago? You can cancel this using the "Distance Selling Regulations" if you so desire

Read the first paragraph on my original reply. Both accurate and on topic. No moral high ground required. You want to leave yourself exposed - be my guest, as it couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

 

The fact you find if difficult to communicate in civil manner is one thing, but do us all a favour and find somewhere your contributions might be appreciated.
