    • Ok you are in the clear. The PCN does not comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 for two reasons. The first is that in Section 9 [2][e]  says the PCN must "state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper— (i)to pay the unpaid parking charges ". It does not say that even though it continues correctly with blurb about the driver. The other fault is that there is no parking period mentioned. Their ANPR cameras do show your arrival and departure times but as that at the very least includes driving from the entrance to the parking space then later leaving the parking space and driving to the exit. It also doesn't allow for finding a parking spot: manoeuvering into it avoiding parking on the lines: possibly having to stop to allow pedestrians/other cars to pass in front of you; returning the trolley after finishing shopping; loading children disabled people in and out of the car, etc etc.  All of that could easily add five, ten or even 15 minutes to your time which the ANPR cameras cannot take into account. So even if it was only two hours free time you could  still have been within the  time since there is a MINIMUM of 15 minutes Grace period when you leave the car park. However as they cannot even manage to get their PCN to comply with the Act you as keeper cannot be pursued. Only the driver is now liable and they do not know who was driving as you have not appealed and perhaps unwittingly given away who was driving. So you do not owe them a penny. No need to appeal. Let them waste their money pursuing you . 
    • If Labour are elected I hope they go after everyone who made huge amounts of money out of this, by loading the company with debt. The sad thing is that some pension schemes, including the universities one, USS, will lose money along with customers.
    • What's the reason for not wanting a smart meter? Personally I'm saving a pile on a tariff only available with one. Today electricity is 17.17p/kWh. If the meter is truly past its certification date the supplier is obliged to replace it. If you refuse to allow this then eventually they'll get warrant and do so by force. Certified life varies between models and generations, some only 10 or 15 years, some older types as long as 40 years or maybe even more. Your meter should have its certified start date marked somewhere so if you doubt the supplier you can look up the certified life and cross check.
    • No I'm not. Even if I was then comments on this forum wouldn't constitute legal advice in the formal sense. Now you've engaged a lawyer directly can I just make couple of final suggestions? Firstly make sure he is fully aware of the facts. And don't mix and match by taking his advice on one aspect while ploughing your own furrow on others.  Let us know how you get on now you have a solicitor acting for you.

    • 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.

The reason being is to go to the FOS you need to have complained about the problem specifically to the lender. If you complained along the wrong track you would need to complain again in the correct way in order for the fos to investigate.

Here is the email conversation between me and Peachy.

 

Your outstanding balance as of today, 21.11.2014, is £353.85. No

charges have been applied to the account since 11/01/2012 when we have

accepted payments from your Debt Management Agency. Towards the loan

we have received payments in the amount £39.99.

 

my reply

Hi there thank you for your reply. My current circumstances are that i am receiving £61.50 pw Carer Allowance as my husband has Multiple Sclerosis and i am her carer and she is unwilling to pay my debts for me which has put our marriage under tremendous stress and having MS this is not asllowed for her health. My marriage is really on the rocks at the moment also my wifes health is suffering because of this so i want to get this finalised one way or the other.

 

I can see below your email for 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th.. letter charges i have checked my records and i cannot see anything regarding these letters, I would like to come to an amicable arrangement directly with yourselves and again due to my financial hardship my latest offer is £150 payable on a monthly basis £10. Can you please review and get back to me.

 

Their reply

Thank you for the e-mail.

 

Our Credit Committee has reviewed your case and unfortunately we are

not able to accept your offer.

 

Please be advised that you took out the loan in 2011 and so far have

paid a total of £39.99.

 

However our Credit Committee is willing to reduce the balance to £200

in case you wish to make payments directly to us and arrange a

repayment plan for 12 months.

 

That would mean that the payments must be at least £17.00 every month.

 

My reply

As i said previosly my only income is £61.50 per week. I am not goin that far but first in the point you should not let me taken that loan, i really dont know did you done to proper affordibility check as well. My latest offer is the same £10 pound a monthly basis total £150 pound plus you already got via payplan £39.99 so total for £189.99 for £100 poun loan that is the my final offer. If you agree can you please get back to me and i can setup standing order.

 

and #22 their final response.

OK you have not complained in the manner go get anywhere in reference to getting the charges refunded.

 

No more email (and no phonecall either)

 

You want to do a letter to their registered address, get proof of postage.

 

Check the templates on this forum. Now you know what charges were levelle don that account you want to claim them back. ( I would laos charge them interest in restitution as well but that would require a small claims case)

 

Once they refute your letter, you repeat with the title LETTER BEFORE ACTION. Once that expires you then go FOS or Small Claims.

 

Also you TELL them what you can afford. If its £1 a month after completing an I+E then thats all you give them!

 

Others should be around ot help you in more detail.

You also recieved their standard fob off letter. They do not get to decide what repayments you make. YOUR financial circumstances dictate what you repay.

You need to request/demand a full and complete itemised breakdown of the alleged amount that is owed. If they refuse, then youll have to SAR them, which costs £10.
