    • Firstly, and sorry for not asking earlier but have you submitted your DQ yet?
    • As suggested by JK2054 I'll email Evri to their small claims email address, attaching the label and collection receipt and quoting the Money Claims ref number. Is there anything else in addition to sending the email I should do at this stage? Rgds, J
    • Hi, I'd change justice centre to county court. I also wouldn't be including a telegraph article in the bundle. It doens't prove anything law and you don't have distribution rights on it. I also wouldn't personally break down the exhibits on the index page, normally people have a seperate page for this right before the exhibits. The main index page normally just says Exhibits to WX of [Your Name] or at least that's the format I use/see people here use, although really it makes minimal difference.   I also see that despite referencing several judgements you haven't included the EVRi one   paragraph 46 really needs to go imo it has nothing to do with anything. Your in court to apply the law to your case, not to tell the judge about a newspaper that means nothing to your claim.   I also see you've adopted the issues in dispute/not in dispute, which is also known as a scott schedule. if you are taking this approach, for things not in dispute I would say this needs to be things that are agreed between parties, not things like "There is no dispute that I am happy to supply all this evidence which is included in the court bundle." I would say that issues in dispute is to focus on the aspects of the claim that are in dispute, such as whether liability is limited by insurance or not, so I'd be changing that accordingly.   BF should be along shortly to advise on things.

    • 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.

I'm wondering if someone could help me with Cabot Financial regarding some old catalogue debt?

 

I got evicted from my home due to a divorce in May 2007 and had nowhere to go so didn't leave my forwarding address to the catalogue company.

 

 

I think it may have been 2006 when I was struggling to pay my debts and so hadn't paid the catalogue company from probably around that time (2006).

 

I did find somewhere to live in August 2007 and it was between about 2011 and 2013 that the catalogue company caught up with me.

 

 

I did admit to the debt and said I would try and pay.

I cannot remember if at that time I did make a small token payment or not, but if indeed I did, I never made any more after that.

 

Forwarding on to April 2014,

I had to move house as I couldn't afford the bedroom tax.

 

 

Cabot financial got in touch with me by letter saying that they were wanting money for the catalogue debt and I have ignored the letters and the harassing phone calls ever since I found out that it maybe statute barred.

 

 

Could anyone let me know if this is indeed statute barred given that it is now 2017

or since I admitted to the debt during 2011 to 2013 that it started the clock during this period.

 

Cabot have added £800 onto the original debt.

I haven't acknowledged them and have blocked their phone calls as I don't want to admit to anything until I know my rights.

 

Can anyone please tell me if I stopped paying the catalogue in 2006 and I admitted over the phone that it was my debt some time during 2011 and 2013 if it started the clock again during this period?

 

 

Do I admit to Cabot that it's mine.

I cannot afford to pay the amount of the original debt, let alone the £800 that Cabot have added on top.

 

 

Can Cabot take me to court if indeed the clock started between 2010 and 2013?

 

 

Thank you.

Hello,

 

Have you checked your credit file to see what's on there?

Noddle is free.

 

IF you haven't paid anything since 2006, then absolutely NOTHING will unbar it, you can take out a full page spread saying you owe it, but it will still be unenforceable.

 

A phone call saying you owe it DOES not unbar it either.

 

If you are 100% that you have NOT paid anything in the last six years, OR acknowledged this debt (in writing) then fire off the SB letter in the library above, IGNORE everything from Cabrot, less for a court claim, which won't happen, this is a poxy catalogue debt.

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!

Thanks very much for replying. I honestly cannot remember whether I paid a payment or just agreed to. I guess I shall have to trawl through my old bank statements. Luckily I've kept them since 2009

and no matter what, if cabot hold the debt, then it is extremely likely its unenforceable anyway. Like BB said, get your research done first, as cabot will lie cheat and borderline commit fraud to get money from you. You need to be able to stop them dead in their tracks.

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..

The original debt has gone up by £800, which states on the letter as an admin fee

 

If I find out if I did indeed make a payment to the catalogue company, can Cabot take me to court if the clock started ticking again?
