    • Hmmm, interesting point. In my career, that I am retired from now, there were an immense amount of rules and regulations that one had to adhere to by law. The qualification process is rigorous with on going assessments throughout your career and re-certification every 12 months. If you were shown to be not competent in those rules and regulations you could not hold the position and the operational consequences of that could potentially be dire. In the same respect, perhaps a judge who is not conversant in the rules of POFA should not sit in on cases that requires proficiency in that area? I also bow to your considerable knowledge in this area, perhaps I shouldn't be commenting but by doing so I find it helps the learning process. Your last point has just reminded me of something that may help my case, thank you.
    • Just had an email re the my breache in agreement by her rep.   I asked you yesterday if they had asked about her name in the thread being removed.   The issue they have is the Elizabeth turner and genetic pups entry on google.   they knew I did not put it up and told them so in court.  I dnt know how to post on google.   I told them I cannot remove what I did not post.  when i come back here and saw her name gone from threads title, I presumed her reps sought it.   now I get an email saying her names still on google ur breaching the agreement as it’s still on google.

    • How does one obtain the permit? The permit team number is only open between the hours of 9am to 3pm Mon - Fri. It says on the website, To obtain an additional 2 hours, the driver must pay a tariff of £3.00 + booking fees in person at our Security Hut, is that how you get the permit also, from the security hut? What a rigmaroll that would be but maybe just another step to take to try and catch people out?
    • Anotheruser0000 bear in mind that not all Judges are equally versed in the PoFA regulations. Fortunately now most of them are but sometimes a Judge from a higher Court sits in who is well experienced  in Law but not PoFA. and so they sometimes go "offkey" because their knowledge can raise a different set of arguments and solutions. It does seem particularly unfair  when the decision is so  bad . it can also be that in some situations the motorist being a lay person is not sufficiently know ledgeable to be able to counter a Judge's decisions in a way that a barrister could.

    • 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.

Please can anyone offer me some advice,

 

I owe 12K to welcome and I am paying them back at a reduced rate,

 

however everytime I get a phonecall off them they ask for date of birth,

so I give it to them and some will say that it is fine and other people will say that we have a different date of birth for you,

but then go one to talk about my account.

 

Am I right in saying that this is against DPA as if I give a different DOB to what they have on their records they should not continue with the conversation?

 

Also how far back can you go to reclaim PPI

 

I believe I took the loan out before 2005 so I may not be covered by normal SAR?

 

can any one help or point me in the right direction with these questions?????

 

Thanks in advance

Yes you are right they are violating the DPA.

 

The SAR goes as far back for any data they hold.

 

You can claim back PPI as far back as you like.

 

The fact that your claim pre-dates 2005 will likely be a benefit to you as you stand a better chance of actually getting cash back.

 

After 14 January 2005, the FSCS are dealing with the claims and are applying compensation back into the loan to offset the balance owed.

 

Send your CCA request and SAR.

 

Dont wait too long, with all the claims against them, who knows how long til the pot of money has gone empty?

 

It will be interesting to see if the SAR records you giving a wrong DOB. I doubt it though.

 

They are foolish though...so who knows?

 

Youre better of refusing to answer at all.

 

And record their calls if at all possible, especially if they are violating your data security rights.

Hi All,

 

I have received a letter sorry a note from Hillside saying that I have a message waiting for me and I am to contact them within seven days otherwise the message will no longer be available.

 

I am fully aware that these are a track and trace, DCA company. They have also telephoned my home asking to speak to me but I wasnt in.

 

I am at a lost as far as I am aware I have no outstanding debts that I am not dealing with already.

 

So do I contact them or not ?

 

I know the bank and a mobile phone company have wrote to me after having defaulted my accounts back in 2008 despite no payments being made for over 6 years and no default notices received.

 

I could certainly do with some advice on how to tackle this one.

 

Oh I almost forgot Welcome have also terminated my contract after refusing to cash my cheques for payment as they wanted a direct debit set up, but I have a basic bank account due to my financial status. So does that mean they need to stop processing my data in accordance with DPA.

 

Sorry for all the questions but I dont know which way to turn.

 

thanks in advance

Well this company contacted myself and caught me a bit off guard.

 

It turns out these are working on behalf of welcome finance who they put me through to without my knowledge. I complained about the underhanded tactics and that I have already told welcome that all contact is to be done in writing.

 

The guy from welcome said I just want to sort out repayment of the loan, to which I replied I have been making payments and yet you fail to cash them.

 

I asked for the address of the Data controller who I should send in a SAR and he went to give me a P.O.box address, I said that I wanted a correct address one that is listed on with the ICO, he said I can give you head office address but if I send it there then it will not get dealt with.

 

He now was me to complete another Income and expenditure sheet and I have to submit copies of my bank statements etc.

 

I would rather go to court than agree with these clowns.

I wanted to jump in and offer you some support and advice.

 

I currently have this lot in court.

They are very very incompetent.

 

My case has been in court going on three years now.

Each time I got to a hearing, they try some dirty under handed tactic,

but luckily, I have always been well prepared with my evidence.

 

They like to be "creative" with their evidence, and in my case,

most of the judges have been able to see what they are doing.

 

Now what should have been a simple half day trial for PPI

(they upheld my claim but were undervaluing the amount to be paid back,

and claiming the right to offset against arrears, of which there were none),

has ended up being a multi-track trial.

 

So far, the trial itself has lasted four days and I still have to go back after the new year for final submissions,

not to mention the 7 preliminary hearings that were held before the start of the trial.

 

Bottom line...if you do end up having to face them in court,

your evidence will be the thing that wins the day for you.

 

Make copies, or at the very list a log of every cheque and payment.

 

Also get your full statement of account and your SAR if you haven't already.

When you have those two things, you will be in a much better position to determine your best course of action.

Hi There, I am need advice on this one.

 

I have today received a letter inside it contained two pages one from welcome dated 20/6/14

saying they have sold my debt and another page dated 22/07/14 from Aktiv saying they have bought my debt.

 

I have been making regular payments although the account is in default, and now I find out that they have sold my debt.

 

I am trying to consider my options on this one as I know I will get threatening phone calls / letters.

 

My first thought is to do a CCA request and my next thought is to go straight in to do a SAR as I believe that this debt is unenforceable.

 

I dont know what the protocol is when a company sells your debt,

but I am sure that it is not to send you two letters in the same envelope with one saying

it has been sold and the other saying it has bought it.

 

I have claimed back my PPI on this account although I do think I was done out of money

because the way in which they presented the figures were very obscure.

 

However that aside What should I do first?

As dx said CCA to AK and I think a SAR to Welcome would be useful, if you have had problems with PPI.
