    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance
    • I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would be appreciated.

    • 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, I urgently need your advice as i've got 2 days left : with experience please. I bought an insurance cover for my car 2 years ago, the policy docs was sent by email so I never checked it, then by the end of the 12 months contract, I was resent the written policy and a letter to say they will no longer be able to cover me due to a change of their conditions and I was given a 1 year no claim discount certificate. it's only then that I realised that the information about my driving licence was incorrect, I had a provisional licence for 3 years and drive at the side of my husband but on the paper its says 3 years full uk licence. i have now reinsured my car, the quotes are very high so I thought I could use my 1 year no claims bonus to get some discount, I did and now the new insurer want to see my NCD. My question are: is that NCD still valid even thought an information was incorrect and because I only realised it late I didnt do anythg about it. can I sent the NCD or simply cancel everything or tell them i no longer have it or try to explain it (will the believe me or report me?) and restart from 0? If I do use it, will my new insurer contact the previous one for details of my previous policy?(on the letter, a number is given to call + a reference number). is this going to be considered as a fraud? OR, WHAT SHALL I DO? Don't want to get myself into hot water but then i am paying £1900 for the year ... thanks for reading and replying

NCD = NO CLAIMS Discount,

 

If you didn't make a claim you are entitled to notify new insurer, however you could be due monies to old insurer as they could claim that the risk charged was based on you having full licence and not provisional. It is a contract of the utmost good faith.

 

Especially when it goes their way !

 

How will the present insurer know either what premiums you paid or on what basis, to divulge this to present insurers may well breach DPA. All they will care about is that you have held insurance for a year and not claimed.

Ignoring what happened previously, are you saying that you have correctly informed your current insurer of your licence details and length you have held it, and have a certificate from your previous insurer showing 1 years no claims?

 

If so, then I would say at this time what happened regarding the oversight with your previous insurer is water under the bridge. As has been pointed out, if you had submitted a claim through your old insurer you may have had a problem as their "risk" turned out to be greater than they believed. No accident happened so the point is moot.

 

The facts you have supplied to your current insurer are correct (including the fact that you have held an insurance for one year without claiming) so the quote they have given you is based on accurate details.

I very doubt they will care as long as your current information is correct i.e. Length of time you held a full licence and that your are entitled to one year NCD.

That is what your current policy will be based on.

They do share information but dont think this will be a problem.

ok, but would they foud out that my 1 year NCD was based on incorrect information?

 

Your 1 year's NCB is not based on incorrect information. The premium you paid may have been lower than it should have been because you may have been a greater risk to them than they had calculated for, but the fact remains that you have held an insurance policy for 1 year and made no claims against it.

 

What premium you paid to the first company will not be made known to your current insurer and no longer has any bearing on your risk factor because the new company has the right details.
