    • 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 had a loan with CFO Lending/Capital Finance One.

 

I ended up paying a huge amount in charges. Has anyone successfully reclaimed charges from these guys.

 

They have sent me a statement of account so I know how much the charges I paid were. A summary of my account with them is below

 

 

Thank you for your email. Please find attached a statement of your account for your reference.

 

Having looked through your account I can confirm you first took out a loan with CFO Lending for the amount of £200.00 with interest of £78.00, making the total amount payable £278.00. You agreed to repay this amount back in full on 29th June 2012. At your request, on this date we collected the minimum of your interest payment and your loan was deferred. Making your interest payment did not reduce your outstanding balance but covered the cost of borrowing for a further month. Your loan was then due for repayment on the 31st July 2012.

 

On the 3rd July 2012 before your loan was due for repayment, you chose to refinance your loan for a further £400.00. This amount was added to your Principle loan amount of £200.00 and interest was calculated on the total. You agreed to pay the amount of £834.00 back in full on 31st July 2012. On this date we failed to receive payment as agreed and as per your contract your account fell into default and collections procedures were in place in an attempt to collect full amount of funds owed under this agreement.

 

As per your contract a £25.00 administration fee was applied to your account for falling into default. Added interest would then have been applied at a rate of 1.3% of your principal loan amount daily.

 

Through collections procedures we collected the amount of £234.00, as you had not requested for your account to be deferred, your account remained in default and continued to incurred added interest and charges as per your contract. On the 2nd August 2015, the business received a text message from you requesting to set up a deferral payment. You were advised that as the we had collected your administration fee payment along with a payment that matched your interest amount we will be happy to defer your loan until the 31st August 2012.

 

On the 31st August 2012 we again failed to receive payment as agreed and your account fell back into default and incurred added interest and charges as per your contract. As per your contract a £25.00 administration fee was applied to your account for falling into default. Added Interest was then applied at a rate of 1.3% of your principle loan amount for a maximum period of 90days.With all the added interest and charges applied to your account your outstanding balance was brought to £1410.40.

 

To date we have received payments totalling £1410.40 leaving a current outstanding balance of £0.00.

 

CFO Lending can confirm your account with the business is settled in full and closed.

 

Should you have any further queries regarding your account please do not hesitate to contact us.

Since they are unlawful penalty charges, you can SAR them if you dont have all the statements, and put in a claim for them at their interest rate. IF they refuse to allow the claim, then you take them to SCC.

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..

I have a statement of accounts from them with dates. I assume I will need to do some form of complaint letter and calculations.

 

They also took £15 off each of the loan amounts for faster payment

Hi madmatt101,

 

New to this!

 

How have you managed to get in contact with CFO? I am trying to write to them about my old loans but all e-mail addresses I have are no longer working... their websites are closed too, etc.

 

Any info you can provide regarding contacting them would be great.

 

Thanks

 

Luke

Hi DX

 

I have filled in the sheet and I think I must have done something wrong

 

It tells me that I am claiming for over £158million for interest on charges of £541

 

It would be nice to get that, however I cant quite see that being paid out, and going through the courts could be expensive ;)

To update all the readers of this thread.

I have sent a formal letter of complaint.

 

I noticed that there were no further interest charges on my account so I used the satint sheet.

 

I will see what they come back with and post up an update.

I know the £56 says default

But I don't think they are reclaimable

Just the £25 ones

 

So seems correct for £74?

Trying to get hold of this lot myself, ended up paying back almost 700 for a 358 loan and all the MT collect threat nonsense years ago claiming I still owe them. Is the one in this thread the best to use or the customerservices at cfolending one? Or are they both the same?

Just an update on my case, I asked CFO Lending to refund all interest and charges on all of my old loans due to irresponsible lending. They declined my claim so I took it to the Financial Ombudsman Service. They ruled in my favor and I received a refund of approx £740 (including £50 compensation).

 

I would't take any other lower offers offered directly by CFO, if you refer to the FOS, you will most likely be able to claim back all interest and charges. I had a strong case and supplied a copy of my credit report at the time of each loan... this showed I should not have been approved and the proper affordability checks were not carried out. Worth perusing.
