    • 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

 

I'm hoping someone can help. A family friend visited me on the 15/10/11 and they had parked out on the main street with a valid parking ticket. He arrived at 16:30pm and he got issued a ticket from 17:10 to 17:11. We don't understand why he got the ticket as he had displayed the ticket on his dashboard clearly.

 

So i'm now writing to my local council on his behalf and i'm wondering how i should word the letter? And do the Wardens take photos for evidence?

 

Thanks

Hi fumed,

 

Can you let us know what the exact contravention they are stating took place please (code is also useful)?

 

Most council's do take pictures as evidence, and would be provided on the Council website under "Parking Services" and "view PCN evidence".

 

Thanks,

 

DC

So really the only reason for that contravention would be not displaying a residents permit...and by the sounds of it, you can do pay and display. So I'm a bit confused if your friend displayed everything correctly but still managed to get a ticket!!

 

Can you tell us please which council in particular issued the PCN?

Are there time restrictions on the bay/zone where only residents are allowed to park?

Do you have pictures to back up your case that the CEO was wrong to issue a ticket?

 

If you are able to post a picture of both the front and back of the PCN (blank out details relating to vehicle reg and PCN number), then that would help.

 

- Check to make sure the road on the PCN matches the location of where parked?

- Reg number correct?

This is what is confusing me as if you do park in that road you do need either a residents permit, visitors permit or pay and display. The council is Redbridge and it says you can only park there for 2 hrs on pay and display. We don't have any pictures as he was leaving to go home and only came back to give me the tickets. I'll try to up load the pictures soon.

Did he park in Clarissa Rd or in Chadwell Heath High Rd? If the former, all bays are resident's only. If the latter, the only P&D bays nearby are here:

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Clarissa+Road,+Chadwell+Heath,+Essex.&hl=en&ll=51.570522,0.129154&spn=0.010176,0.014656&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&hnear=Clarissa+Rd,+Romford,+Essex+RM6,+United+Kingdom&t=m&z=16&vpsrc=0&layer=c&cbll=51.57056,0.12932&panoid=lqKjSscGzayWQDiD0Es_jQ&cbp=12,162.41,,0,34.59

 

and the signs make no mention of a 2 hr limit.

 

What location does the PCN give?

He parked in Clarissa Rd and they have a P&D machine in Edgar road. I know other people have paid and parked there, i think the 2 hr limit is actually on the machine. Not sure if i'm giving you the right bit, but the location on the pcn says OS 1.

Am I right in assuming you live in Clarissa Road?

 

If so I suggest you write to the council explain that you had a visitor, you offered him a visitor permit but he said he had bought a P&D ticket and therefore didn't need one. Had you realised that he had not parked in a P&D bay you would have given him a visitor permit.

 

Although your friend was technically in contravention, this was a genuine mistake on his behalf, the council has suffered no financial loss, that you will ensure this doesn't happen again and ask that the council use it's discretion in this instance and cancel the PCN.

I don't live in Clarissa Road itself, there's a little alley way just off of it, and that's where i live. Even i didn't know you can't park in that road! I'll just write to them using your explanation.

 

Ah, see now i don't drive so i never bother with the machines etc. Definitely our fault then. Thanks for your help :)

Wait a minute, so do you live in Pavement Mews above one of shops. If so, are you actually within Chadwell Heath CPZ and therefore entitled to visitor permits? Do you actually have any visitor permits for your visitors?

 

Edit: Ok, as you were, have just checked on Redbridge website and Pavement Mews is in the CPZ

Controlled Parking Zone:

http://www.redbridge.gov.uk/cms/parking_rubbish_and_streets/parking_and_vehicles/parking_permits_and_zones/controlled_parking_zone_maps.aspx

 

As for a resident owning Pavement Mews, that's extremely unlikely. More likely is that it is public highway or that it is owned by someone but that each property that backs onto it has a right of way for access or that each property that backs on to it owns that section but other properties have right of access. The only way to find out for sure is to look at the Land Registry entry for those properties

Hi,

I parked my car in february 2011 in a pay and display street parking with a valid parking ticket on it,when i came back there was a penalty ticket on my car but there was still more than 40 minutes on a parkign ticket that was clearly displayed on it,i looked around and i found the traffic warden who i believed left a ticket on my car,i spoke to him in a polite manner,he apologized and said that wirte to the gloucester council and they will cancel the fine,i wrtoe to them with the photocopies of parking tickets and explaination but they never replied,i assumed they cancelled it,after few months i found a clamp on my car and had to pay £350 to get it off which was devastating as i am a student and really short on finance,is there any way i can claim that money back, i have still kept them parking tickets in my documents file.

is there anything i can do to claim my money back?

also when they clamped the car it was on my brothers name as i sold the car to him few months ago but why did he get clamped as the fine was on my name.
