    • Thanks all for all your input. I have decided to follow this all the way. So far, I have not replied to Alliance Parking's original NTK letter. The time-period for the reduced amount has now finished, and the time to appeal (21 days from the date of letter) will finish on 25th Apr. No further comms received from Alliance Parking. Could you please guide me, for my readiness, on what happens next? Am I going to start receiving letters from Alliance Parking > Debt Collector letters > Letter of Claim? Who sends me the Letter of Claim - Alliance Parking / Debt Collectors / Solicitors / court? How many weeks / months from now is this likely to be? Once Alliance Parking passes the debt off to the Debt Collectors, is there a risk of anyone turning up at the door? Do I need to reply to any other letters from either the parking company, debt collectors, or solicitors? Many thanks in advance.

    • Pretty good first draft   Only question I have is did you use a template from this forum to write it?   Parts of It just seems very familiar, and I'm concerned if TFL see people just copying and pasting stuff they've seen before it won't be as effective.   If not then I'd say its good but allow others to give their feedback.

    • 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

 

Apologies if I posted this in wrong section.

 

I sent a CCA request on behalf of my friend. This loan is in reference to M&S personal reserve account where they gave you a chequebook so you only borrowed what you actually needed. This type of loan does not have any CCA agreement. Please see attached reply from Arrow Global. What is the next course of action? Appreciate your help as usual.

Thanks you.

Well heres the thing, If it is a bank account and is being regulated as if it is an Overdraft, then I would say that they are correct. The key word here is whether it was a "Loan"... Sounds like an Overdraft to me.

Well SAR M&S and see what you get back . Could be rife with charges possibly (Although you might not beable to claim them back)

 

We could do with some help from you.

M&S supplied him chqbook worth £3000 and he would write a cheque to himself whenever/whatever amount. He had no bank account or credit card with M&S. Not sure if this classes as Loan.

Hi,

Re : the overdraft or not question, I too had a personal reserve account many years ago, and after reading this thread I thought I'd have a look on the internet as I thought is was covered under CCA and not an overdraft.

 

I searched for 'marks spencer personal reserve CCA', and was linked to another site on which someone had put an image of their personal reserve CCA agreement.

Upon looking at this, it seems to me that it is covered under CCA etc, maybe you could have a look yourself as I don't think I can put the link to the other website in this post.

 

Also I found a website which said the personal reserve account was a flexi-loan account, I'm not sure if the other more experience members hear know a little more about flex-loans and wether they fall under CCA or not.

 

I hope this info helps.

  • 3 weeks later...

if they offered credit it will be covered by the CCA and an agreement would have been signed.

 

 

dx

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...
