    • Should this to be take into court with him or should he send something in earlier?
    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.

    • 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've just recieved a claim form from BW legal representing Lowell from Northampton court that I believe is stat barred,

 

it was originally for a mbna (virgin credit card)that I'm sure I took protection on the card,

 

I was made redundant and they informed me I still had to pay the debt,

 

I disagreed and because I was young and naive ceased all contact with them.

 

because this was some 10 or so years ago I can't really remember the particulars,

 

however as stated I'm sure it is indeed stat barred.

 

could someone please help me with the process and what would be my next move?

 

I have read through many threads but have just started my own business and my mind is already very fuzzy!

 

Would it be possible to put it in laymans terms at all??

 

Ain't realise it's not good to try and get away without paying a penny

 

this really could not of come at a worse time ,

 

so am hoping essentially it will be dropped.

(It does not appear on credit report)

 

Issue date 19 jun 2014

Particulars of claim:

 

The Claimants Claim is for the sum of

5,509.14 being monies due from the

Defendant to the Claimant under a

Financial Services

Agreement regulated by

The Consumer Credit Act 1974 between the

Defendant and

MBNA Europe Bank Limited

 

Under account ref:

And assigned to the claimant on 16/12/2005

Notice of which has been given to the

Defendant.

The Defendant failed to maintain the

Contractual payment under the terms of the

Agreement and a default notice has been

Served and not complied with.

The claim also includes statutory interest

Persians to section 69 of the County Courts

Act 1984 at a rate of 8.00% per annunciate (a

Daily rate of 0.72 from the date of

Assignment of the agreement to the date of

Issue () being an amount of

2,237.04.

 

That's everything in the form. I hope it's what your after

Anything else please let me know.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Safe, first thing is to not to panic, hard I know but the guys on here and fantastic. The first thing to do is to acknowledge the claim online. Issue date of 19 June means you have to acknowledge the claim by 7 July (5 plus 14 days). More knowlegeable peeps will help more but please don't worry about this you are in good hands here :D

Hi Safe and welcome to CAG

 

Once you have acknowledged the claim as advised above you have a further 14 days to submit a defence......in your case I would submit the following at the same time assuming you have made not acknowledgement or payment for a clear period of 6 years. This defence alone will serve to defeat the claim assuming the facts stated in it are true.

 

Defence

 

 

 

1 The Claimant's claim was issued on (date).

 

2 The Claimant contends that the Claimant's claim so issued is a claim in contract and is statute barred pursuant to the provisions of section 5 of the Limitation Act 1980. If, which is denied, the claimant contends that the Defendant is in breach of the alleged contract, in excess of 6 years have elapsed since the date on which any cause of action for breach accrued for the benefit of the Claimant.

 

3 The Claimant's claim to be entitled to payment of £x or any other sum, or relief of any kind is denied.

 

 

Regards

 

Andy

Hi guys thanks for the replies, thanks Andy was quietly hoping you would reply seems you have form with dealing with Lowell !!

 

I apologise for sounding so dim but this really isn't my area of expertise!!.......

So I assume I acknowledge online and then at the same time copy and paste above In a defence box at the same time or do I literally print it out and wait to go to court?? I'm really sorry if I sound silly!!?

Hi Safe,

 

You have until 7th July to acknowledge the claim and until 20th July to complete your defence. You can do both the acknowledgement and defence online so there is no need to post anything to them. Andy has drafted a statute barred defence for you, just remember to put the relevant details in where he has placed xxx's.

 

As long as you get your defence in by 20th July that's ok, its up to you if you defend straight after you acknowledge the claim.

 

Lowell will probably write to you offering you a discount, blah blah blah...statute barred debts are unenforceable, they are just trying their luck to see if you will fall for it :-)

 

Take care

Your defence was submitted on 01/07/2014 at 21:53:59

Your acknowledgment of service was received on 02/07/2014

Your defence was received on 02/07/2014

 

have I done something wrong in order for it to still be saying that?

Is this still a waiting game?? I spoke to someone and they said they had 33days in which to reply! So what's the play from here? Cheers in advance

Its 28 days and no you have not done anything wrong......the claimant has simply failed to respond within the prescribed period and so the claim is stayed.

Thanks Andy, so would it be advisable to take any further action now?so this would not happen again! Or is it a case that it's been stayed so no one can peruse this debt anymore!? Hope that makes sense??

Not quite....when a claim is served only when the claimant responds to a defence and informs the court it wishes to proceed does it in fact become a live claim...at this moment its merely a speculative claim that is stayed.

 

Nothing to stop others having a go but its very rare.

Hi guys, little update and more help required if at all possible!?

 

 

I have a small claims court date of the 16 December.

 

 

Arrived home this eve to a nice little envelope full of what appears to be completely fictitious material.

 

 

they have enclosed the orginal agreement which is the only document that's doesn't appear to be falsified! (Dated 05/11/03)

 

They also have enclosed a letter dated 20/2/2009 stating that MBNA have sold the debt to Lowell.

I did not recieve this letter and was infact living in Bedfordshire when this was dated.

 

More worryingly they have submitted what they call the claimants records of payments dated 3rd September 2009 to 23 February 2010

which details seven payments of £60.60 this is a very grainy document that to my knowledge is completely fabricated!!

 

Can they get away with this or are they just trying to pull one over on me??

 

Is there a way I can prove I haven't paid this?

 

They say the payments where made by credit card,

again fictitional as the only credit card I have ever owned is the very card this whole problem is about!!!?

 

Any help would be massively appreciated.

if these payment are from 2009

can you not check at say noddle [below]

to see if they show in the payment history there?

its free so give it a go.

 

 

if you disagree you need to put then to strict proof.

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...
