    • 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.

Can someone please clarify beyond doubt the question about when you can reapply for ESA following a failed appeal? It is 6 months after the appeal date itself or 6 months after a failed ATOS medical confirmation letter from the DWP stating fitness for work?

 

I have my appeal in 5 weeks and if I fail the last thing I want to do is apply for JSA!

 

The date of my failed ATOS medical was in Aug 2010 which is obviously over 7 months ago now so if i fail my ESA appeal can I immediately reapply for ESA?

 

Many thanks

It is 6 months after the decision of the failed medical so if tribunal is not successful you would be able to reapply straight away.

Make sure you read sticky on here and prepare supporting evidence so that tribunal overturns the decision so you don't have to go through the farce again. Good luck

You wouldn't believe the relief I'm feeling from finding this forum. I lost my tribunal yesterday and had no idea what to do next - except to just accept that I'd have to sign on. Thankfully my medical was 5 months 3 weeks ago, so thanks for the knowledge that I can start again in a week! Also, thanks to all who gave advice in the stickied thread - I can see why I lost so convincingly now - I just ticked the boxes on the forms and tried to look like a normal human being at the medical. Silly, really.

can you keep us up to date with events mate

 

I have my tribunal in 4 weeks so how should i behave?! Should I act normal or downtrodden?

 

I know you can apply for ESA after 6 months but will they pay you any money when you do apply? The DWP may accept your ESA claim but is that the same as accepting it and paying you any money on submission of a sick note?

 

thanks

Unfortunately I can't help there, as I was too ill to attend. From what I've read in the aforementioned sticky thread, is that preparation along the way is all. I don't think my attendance would have made the least bit of difference due to my not having any points from my medical (and I'd only be claiming for a few months - I sailed through the original medical), nor a letter from my actual, real-world GP.

 

This time, I'm going prepared!

Sorry, missed that bit. I'm assuming that if you reapply with a valid sick note that they have no choice other than to start the whole thing again. I'd be grateful if anyone could correct me if I've misunderstood that.

Yes, I can confirm that on failing your tribunal and reapplying for ESA it is seen as a fresh claim and you start all over again. I'm awaiting my second tribunal and have, effectively, been on the assessment rate continuously since November 2009 ...

Hi, Im new here. I just want to say thank you for all the info everybody has put up. I failed my Tribunal yesterday after the snobby Doctor didnt believe me. I sat there rolling his eyes at everything I said then looked down on me when I told him my mum and my partner (who I both live with) or out of work! I couldnt believe it! I asked at the end whether Id recieve information about what to do next if they dont award me ESA. The man who was on the legal side said Id recieve a letter and it will tell me everything I need to know in there. No such letter has arrived. Just their decision letter telling me they agree with the state (which is no big suprise after yesterday's interigation!) Iv been worried sick as to what to do know. The JSA have told me I cant claim them as I cant do a full day's work. Iv just been turned down for ESA. All this worry and panic is making me ill :( It's now July 2011, I had my medical March 2010 so Im assuming I can make a new claim for ESA. Iv read that this can only be done if you have a different illness. You cant claim on an illness you have already tried to claim for. Is this true? If so im screwed!!! How do i go about making a new claim? I was siging on at the time of my first claim. I just had to fill a form out and send it to somewhere within the JSA along with my sick note. As of yesterday Im not claiming anything. I really cannot go without money. There isnt enough coming into the household with my mum and partner out of work aswell. Im going to end up in all kinds of trouble with the company I have have debts with. I just dont know what to do. Can anybody PLEASE help me??

This isn't actually quite true. I claim JSA and they are aware that I can't do a full days work. I think there is a lower limit (might be 16 hours) that you must be able to work. However, if you have a disability which affects your ability to work, you can ask that you only find jobs where you work x amount of hours.

It's very hard not to panic lol. When I was at JSA before trying to claim ESA, the man who I was signing with told me about a job. i couldnt him I wouldnt be able to do that because Iv just been diagnosed with an illness which prevents me from doing any work like that. He then said to me that "if I cannot do the jobs being offered then I cannot sign on. Simple as that!" I then had to go and see my advisor who told me the same thing. I dunno, maybe its just one less person claiming JSA. Can anybody tell me how I go about making a new claim please? Thank you so much guys

No they haven't changed it, they're misinformed, try again, though you may have to wait until your old claim is closed or complete a paper claim.

 

Tell them its 6 months from the initial decision refusing you ESA, they should check with their supervisor, as they are contrvening social security law not allowing you to make a claim. Make sure you take their name at the start of call and note the time and date in case you need to complain later.

Hi, Kelcou, I'm quoting two of your posts, and hope I've understood you right - but could you spell it out for me in no uncertain terms, lol! I have my tribunal on 1st December (oh, Christmas joy!) and I want to know that if I fail it can I walk straight out of the court and reclaim ESA at the basic rate, for the same condition, pending a further tribunal application/appeal?

 

I'm scared that if I'm failed I'll have to go straight across to JSA.

 

If I can re-claim ESA do I use the same form as before when I appealed my medical assessment? I think if was GL14 or something.

 

Thanks

99% certain it is 6 months from the date of the [failed] medical. Hopefully someone more clued up than I can make that 100%. As soon as I failed my last tribunal I reapplied for ESA without problem and, if history repeats itself, will do so again ...

Now we get to the heart of the matter. They want to save money but they can't have people failing medicals and appeals then going onto JSA!

My God that'll push the unemployment figures through the roof!

 

"I know, we'll let them claim ESA again after 6 months, that way we still save lots of money. but the unemployment stays the same, or at least doesn't rise as much as it would.

Its a win win situation.":evil:
