    • love the extra £1000 charge for confidentialy there BF   Also OP even if they don't offer OOC it doesn't mean your claim isn't good. I had 3 against EVRi that were heard over the last 3 weeks. They sent me emails asking me to discontinue as I wouldn't win. Went infront of a judge and won all 3.    Just remember the law is on your side. The judges will be aware of this.   Where you can its important to try to point out at the hearing the specific part of the contract they breached. I found this was very helpful and the Judge made reference to it when they gave their judgements and it seemed this was pretty important as once you have identified a specific breach the matter turns straight to liability. From there its a case of pointing out the unlawfullness of their insurance and then that should be it.
    • I know dx and thanks again for yours and others help. I was 99.999% certain last payment was over six years ago if not longer.  👍
    • Paragraph 23 – "standard industry practice" – put this in bold type. They are stupid to rely on this and we might as well carry on emphasising how stupid they are. I wonder why they could even have begun to think some kind of compelling argument – "the other boys do it so I do it as well…" Same with paragraph 26   Paragraph 45 – The Defendants have so far been unable to produce any judgements at any level which disagree with the three judgements…  …court, but I would respectfully request…   Just the few amendments above – and I think it's fine. I think you should stick to the format that you are using. This has been used lots of times and has even been applauded by judges for being meticulous and clear. You aren't a professional. Nobody is expecting professional standards and although it's important that you understand exactly what you are doing – you don't really want to come over to the judge that you have done this kind of thing before. As a litigant in person you get a certain licence/leeway from judges and that is helpful to you – especially if you are facing a professional advocate. The way this is laid out is far clearer than the mess that you will get from EVRi. Quite frankly they undermine their own credibility by trying to say that they should win simply because it is "standard industry practice". It wouldn't at all surprise me if EVRi make you a last moment offer of the entire value of your claim partly to avoid judgement and also partly to avoid the embarrassment of having this kind of rubbish exposed in court. If they do happen to do that, then you should make sure that they pay everything. If they suddenly make you an out-of-court offer and this means that they are worried that they are going to lose and so you must make sure that you get every penny – interest, costs – everything you claimed. Finally, if they do make you an out-of-court offer they will try to sign you up to a confidentiality agreement. The answer to that is absolutely – No. It's not part of the claim and if they want to settle then they settle the claim as it stands and don't try add anything on. If they want confidentiality then that will cost an extra £1000. If they don't like it then they can go do the other thing. Once you have made the amendments suggested above – it should be the final version. court,. I don't think we are going to make any more changes. Your next job good to make sure that you are completely familiar with it all. That you understand the arguments. Have you made a court familiarisation visit?
    • just type no need to keep hitting quote... as has already been said, they use their own criteria. if a person is not stated as linked to you on your file then no cant hurt you. not all creditors use every CRA provider, there are only 3 main credit file providers mind, the rest are just 3rd party data sharers. if you already have revolving credit on your file there is no need to apply for anything just 'because' you need to show you can handle money. if you have bank account(s) and a mortgage which you are servicing (paying) then nothing more can improve your score, despite what these 'scam' sites claiml  its all a CON!!

    • 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.

Hey there,

Recently I got into trouble and got caught shoplifting with my friend in Boots.

 

 

The security guard then took us in the CCTV room and took our information such as name, DOB, and our address.

 

 

Then, they called our parents to pick us up.

 

 

They stated that no further actions will be taken and we will receive RLP letter requesting a fine for about £80.

 

 

Today, I got my RLP letter and it stated the fine as £217.70.

 

 

I cannot afford to pay this.

 

 

I'm scared.

 

 

Should I pay this amount or ignore it?

 

 

And also, would this appear on my enhanced CRB checks?

 

 

I'm really worried and would appreciate if you can contact me.

Thank you

Right, it seems no action was taken by the police which is the ONLY way that your actions would appear on any CRB check.

 

RLP act on behalf of major retailers in chasing a fixed sum. this is becasue the retailers don't want the hassle of doing it themselves and also being tainted by the unlawful actions of RLP.

 

RLP can do nothing to you except threaten all sorts. ONLY the retailer can take you to court and as this is Boots, it is highly unlikely they will want to go there.

 

Please relax, get your parents to read some of the threads here about RLP and just how toothless they actually are. Make sure they do not capitulate to RLPs pretend power.

 

If they included an FAQ with the letter, the majority of it is BS.

Good old RLP and their powerless puerile threat letters....

Definitely ignore them, I wouldn't even open the darn things if a play on words might intimidate you.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

As they called your parents I read this as you are under 18. This means that they cannot pursue you for the money legally so all they can do is send out begging letters full of lies in the hope you pay them just to get them to stop.

It will not appear on any search, the police didnt take any interest so it wont ever reach the PNC and will therefore never get on the same bus as an enhanced DBS check, let alone in one.

Stop worrying about these vultures and dont do what your friends do just because they do it.

Thanks for replying y'all,

So are you suggesting that I should just ignore the letter? Is there a possibility that they can take further actions?

 

NO! Rlp can only act on client instruction. They cannot take any action in their own right.

 

The ONLY thing RLP can do is pass on this amount to a debt collector who have even less power that RLP.

 

They can write as many letters as they like. If you feel threatened by them, complain to Trading Standards.

 

Carry on ignoring. We are here for a bit of hand holding if needed

Thank you so much.. I feel bit more relieved now. They said that they could use my personal details which can be saved on the database for viewing, especially the employees. Is this true? If not, what do they do with those details

Any data they retain must be held securely and not shared without good reason.

 

They did start another company called Cireco which was purported to be for potential employers to use if they wanted to check out the applicant but to access it, they would need the applicants permission however, in one thread I saw, RLP have included a FAQ which state that they will only store the data until no longer required.

 

I wouldn't worry about this. They can do nothing with your data without your permission.

This is a quote from RLPs fact sheet which spells out what they do with your data.

 

What is the Position With – My Data, Any Information I Provide to you – The Data Protection Act

Any information you supply will be used for the sole purpose of determining whether to proceed with the claim. It will not be processed further or passed to any third party. It will be confidentially destroyed. If you believe the information we hold is not accurate it is for you to advise us so we hold an accurate account which the DPA requires. Please see the reverse of our letter for more DPA information.

Surely its for them to make sure they hold the correct info. The way thats worded is like a DCA would use. Clever words designed to make YOU give them the info and they do no legwork but still chase you

Hey everyone,

I have just received another letter from the RLP and they have decreased the amount to £147.50 and this time the letter was addressed to my parents. They have also mentioned that if they do not receive payment or a response, within 21 days, they will revert to their client for further instruction. What should I do?

Ignore them as we already said. They cannot do ANYTHING. They are simply scaring you. Thats it. They even admitted it in that letter.

 

Just laugh at them and continue to ignore. I know it's scary, but hand on heart, i can say they are 99.99% likely to do nothing apart from send silly rubbish to you. Dont reply to any of it.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Just seconding the opinion.

 

As mentioned by me in posts 3 and 9, RLP can do bugger all to you apart from passing this 'liability' on to their tame debt collector who can do even less.

 

You will know that it is coming to the end when RLP will send a letter saying they will pass it back to their client with the recommendation that they take legal action. Nothing more, Nada. Zilch. Nuffink!
