    • Our price is the same all day, but varies day to day. Yes there's a risk of high prices but it has never gone above SVR any time since I signed up. Last 30 days average 17.67p/kWh, max 20.67 and lowest was 11.83.  It saved just under £300 during 2023.  
    • It you had E7 in the past but have converted to single rate then the meter will still hold the last recorded Night readings. This introduces scope for error when manually reading. If the meter has only ever been used on single rate then there's only one figure that can be taken. For example ours shows "Rate 1" reading and a "Total import" reading, but they both give the sme figure. If it has ever been on E7 the total will be higher, including the retained night reading.
    • okay, perfect and thank you so much for the help once again. so firstly i am going to initiate the breathing space, during this time it's likely ill receive a default. when i receive the default are you aware of how long it will take for me to know whether the OC have sold it off to DCAs? Once it's with the DCAs i do not need to worry as they cannot issue a CCJ only the OCs can Even if i decide to come an arrangement with the DCAs no point as the default will remain for 6 years paid or not paid I should only consider repayment if the OC still won the debt and then issue a CCJ? Just to confirm the default will not be seen after 6 years? No one can tell I had one then after 6 years ill be all good?
    • 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!...

    • 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.

Hello everyone, I got my second letter today yet it is dated the 6th June. They have given me 21 days to respond from when they posted it.

 

'Thank you for your letter dated 25th May 2014 the content is noted

 

Your letter is nothing other than a pro-forma letter you have copied from the internet and has no relevance to our clients claim

 

The letter is produced to waste time and costs, in the breach of the Protocol for Pre-action Conduct and the Civil Procedure Rules (1998)

 

We urge you to seek legal advice ...

 

We have notified you in a reasonable, proportionate and lawful manner, of the nature and basis of our clients claim and the losses sought, in compliance with CPR.

 

The reference to unlawful threats is entirely without merit ... '

 

Should I ignore this letter? Thanks

Ignore it. It's a standard desperation letter from jackie. File it away under ' toilet paper'.

 

Either her next letter or the one after will go into multiple pages which at first glance looks like important legal fact. But after a few seconds of reading, it becomes clear she is a deranged woman who is intent on trying to get money from people anyway she can.

 

Read some of the other threads in this forum. She sends the exact same letter out to everyone.

Youll recieve a few more, then it will be sent to scotcall, who cannot do ANYTHING. Scotcall send 3 automated letters out and then leave you alone. RLP doesnt even have the decency to tell you theyre leaving you alone.

Hi again,

 

I totally agree. RLP hate it when you fail to respond to their threats.

 

What pre action protocol? As RLP do not do court, they have no right to be demanding any protocols whatsoever. Only the claimant (Boots) can ask you of this and they are not interested.

 

Template letters! They do the ruddy same. Poor deluded people.

 

As for Civil Procedure Rules. When RLP start to comply in full can they then bleat about anothers failure.

 

IGNORE!

Got another letter from them today.

 

'We not that we have received no response from 16th May.

If you have responded please make contact.

Our client exercises it's civil rights of redress, mainly as a deterrent to further incidents.

 

You have not sought to deny your actions not have you slight to demonstrate remorse or offer any reasonable explanation for your conduct'

 

'... The case will proceed based on information and evidence provided by out client.

 

If the case proceeds to court our correspondence will be placed before court.'

 

'We summarise the options to you:

- settle the claim by paying £147.50

-negotiate other settlement

-submit a written defence

-advise us of any other relevant circumstances

-advise that you require more time'

 

this is just the letter briefly what they have sent to me this morning, should I just keep ignoring them?

They are getting more desperate now. They know that you won't give in so they up the game slightly. The important word if 'IF' (the case proceeds to court). Nowhere in their letters will they say 'will' as they cannot speak for what Boots may (or may not ) do.

 

As mentioned before, Boots won't do court, RLP cannot so I would expect the next letter to be from their 'specialist' debt collector who can also do bu**er all except send more letters.

 

This will stop. It is just a matter of time. Ignore and then get on with your life.

 

 

RLP like to think they have some super power and can predict what the future holds. NAH!

I've not even bothered to open this one or plan on it

 

however I am a little worried what's inside.

 

I was expecting another one by now or maybe soon,

 

will I get another do you think?

Probably. It will say the same crap though. Just bin it or use it as emergency toilet paper.

I tried to post on here a few weeks ago to say I haven't heard anything in a few weeks from them.

 

 

yesterday I got a letter from someone new 'bpo collections'. I'm worried they wont ever leave me alone. The letter is saying

 

'we are instructed to recover the liability against you which we understand is not disputed.

 

 

could you contact us within 7 days of getting this letter,

 

 

failing this you are at risk of our client issuing proceedings against you, which will incur further liability from court fees and legal costs.

 

 

A count court judgement which remains unsatisfied after 30 days may also effect your credit rating.

 

 

We require your immediate proposals to the matter.

 

 

If you are now in a posistion to settle this you may pay ____ to BPO collections limited.'

 

What should I doo???

you ignore them totally

BPO are a DCA

no DCA has ANY legal powers.

 

 

they are NOT BAILIFFS

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Yep. Ignore them. Youre at the end of jackies little campaign now. Couple of letters from BPO including one that says they're handing it back to RLP and you wont hear anything else from anyone.

 

Even Scotcall told RLP to get lost, and scotcall only deal in unenforceable or non existent debts.

Yes, agree, ignore. Also do not worry about the final one which may say they will pass the file back with a recommendation of legal action

Had a little look up on 'BPO' and on their site right away I see 'Interigeted mail' 'Door-to-door' and 'Tracing'. They've already started with the mail... I don't want them showing up at my door. As far as I know my sister hasn't told my parents and I don't really want them to know. :|

If BPO are contacting you, ignore them. They wont show up at your door, and if they do, you can tell them to F O and complain to the regulators. They cant do a single thing, and since jackie has got these muppets involved, its not long before you never hear from either company again.

Totally agree. As this is a 'low value' amount and BPO only get paid a success fee, they won't spend too much time on this let alone send anyone to your door. Just because they say door to door doesn't mean they will. I'm not even sure they have any doorstep agents.

 

On the most silly assumption that anyone did turn up, you are fully within your rights to tell them to go away and the best bit...They have to :lol:
