    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.    
    • Hi. Please don't follow McD's advice to contact Met to appeal. They won't listen and you could end up giving them helpful information. HB

    • 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.

Sorry if I did not make it clear to you. I was advised to send a Data Protection letter with £10 to RBS but RBof Scotland has not responded to this request. But instead of dealing with my request they are asking me to send them my bank statements which they sholud have anyway. Is this their delaying tactics I am not sure.

Should I ask them to deal with my request or is there anything else I should do.

hi they are just stalling you all you have to do is send the DPA request to them with payment and your account details. they have to provide you with the details you asked for.

DPA letter template

non compliance to DPA

non compliance letter

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/6986-data-protection-act-non.html

 

you could always go into your branch and hand them a copy of the DPA along with payment if they havent already cashed the cheque, but inform them that the 40 days started from your first correspondance. This will spped them up.

any probs PM me.

Guys

Thanks to all of you for your input. It is great to know that so many of you are fighting these greedy buggers. No amount is small so fight on.

Remember Paul Mccartney sent a solicitors letter to his ex for 3 bottles of washing up liquid. I bet the letter cost more. Good luck to all my friends out there.

Hi

Is that not what you asked for? Check the wording of your DPL(?) letter. If that's what you asked for (copies of statements or list of charges?). that's what you got!!

 

Now you get the highlighter out over this weekend and highlight any unlawful charges (unpaid DD/Cheques, card misuse, referral, unathorised OD etc), the only thing you can't claim for is a charge for a service (ie Royalties etc). Then type the details, as they are written, into one of the spreadsheets in the templates library and move on to stage 2!!

 

Good Luck

Go back to them and ask them if they understood your letter ~ if not to pass your letter on to the Data Protection Manager ~ and remind them they have a maximum of 40 days from receipt of your letter to oblige ~ failing which you will report them to the IOC commissioner ~ make sure that your letter conatined your account number - sort Code and address of your local branch.

Hi

BigCol

Thank you very much. Actually I sent one of the standard DPA letter found in the Consumer Action Group liabrary.The letter states that RBS give me info about evidence of any manual intervention in my banking business.

 

Two days ago I received a formcalled Access Request Application Form.

 

Should I fill this form or as you have suggested send details of charges and ask them to refund. Bigcol I am eagerly waitng for a refund so that I can contribute

some funds to Consumer Actio Group.

 

By the way I am going to master some of this webside material and start helping other unfortunate guys. Thanks to you:)
