    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • Please provide advice on the following situation: I rented out my property to four students for 16 months until March 2024. Initially, the property was in very good condition, but now it needs extensive renovation. This includes redoing the bathroom, replacing the kitchen, removing wallpaper, and redecorating due to significant mould growth. The tenants also left their furniture on the grass, which is owned by the local authority. As a landlord, I've met all legal requirements. It seems the damage was caused by poor ventilation—windows were always closed, and heating wasn't used. There was also a bathroom leak fixed by reapplying silicone. I tried to claim insurance, but it was denied, citing tenant behaviour as the cause by looking at the photos, which isn't covered. The deposit barely covers the repair costs, or else I'll have to pursue money claims, which I've never done before and am unsure about its legal complications or costs. Any thoughts on this?

    • 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.

Failed to put me on waiting list

I have been signed off work since last March and got to a point late November where I spoke to specialist on phone and she told me that an operation was the only option. When I agreed to this she said she would get me placed on the waiting list which was currently a 12 week wait.

 

It has now come to the point with my work where I am about to go to zero pay for 6 months and I have been offered a settlement agreement to leave (which if I don't take before I go down to zero pay it will be taken off the table)

 

So before deciding whether to sign or not I phoned to see where I stood on a time for the operation only to be informed that for some reason I hadn't been placed on it. After some enquiries by an admin assistant I was told that April is the earliest possible time they could try and jump me ahead in the queue and she could only apologise for the mix up.

 

However due to this mix up I have now had to take the settlement agreement as the operation is classed as only 50/50 meaning it is too big a gamble not to take a small sum of money.

 

Is there any sort of complaint or compensation procedure I can through for the fact that this has now affected my actual employment?

Stu's reply is correct if:

a) the OP is being treated on the NHS, and

b) In England.

 

If this is correct, when where you first referred?. There is an expectation of a maximum of 18 weeks between referral and treatment.

 

A complaint to the NHS about an administrative error leading to a delayed operation is unlikely to lead to monetary compensation for loss of wages, for the OP, although there is no harm in asking!.

If the OP is "50/50" anyway, expect them to argue that with a 50/50 outcome you'd likely have taken the settlement anyhow........ and the delay isn't likely to affect the outcome.

 

They'll say "if the op had happened sooner and the outcome was known you'd have either returned to work or not been eligible for a settlement."

 

OP, is the op available elsewhere sooner? If so, and if the 18 week RTT time has been breached, the CCG may arrange for your op to be done more quickly at an alternative provider.

 

https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2013/12/Maximum-Waiting-Times-guidance-revised-November-2013.pdf

(Heading 5, bottom of page 8).

 

Where patients are likely to breach, or have breached, their maximum waiting time and wish to be treated more quickly, the

commissioner has a duty to take all reasonable steps to identify alternative providers.

Commissioners are responsible for ensuring that providers have effective systems in place to manage this process on their behalf.

Commissioners should ensure that providers take all reasonable steps to offer a range of alternative appointments to start the patient’s treatment elsewhere.

Commissioners have a duty to act on the patient’s behalf to secure alternative provision if the provider has failed to take all reasonable steps to do so or if the patient requests this.

A suitable alternative provider is one that can provide clinically appropriate treatment and has a contract with a CCG or NHS England.

The alternative provider must be able to commence the patient’s treatment more quickly than the original provider; and able to provide services on the same mandatory terms and conditions as other similar NHS services.

 

So, the provider should be looking for any quicker alternatives. Point this out to them, ask if they have looked for alternative providers and mention you are also taking it to the CCG (if they are going to breach the 18 week RTT time).

They may suddenly discover they can fit you in sooner .......... : If not, dob the provider in it with the CCG! (for making the error, breaching the 18 weeks, +/- not finding a faster alternative [if there is one......])

Thanks for the replies.

 

Apologies but I should have mentioned that I am being treated by NHS Scotland.

 

I was first referred by my GP back in March last year. Waited until June to see a specialist who recommended a Nerve Conduction Study. This was carried out in September. Then had to wait until November to see specialist again who then contacted me by phone after speaking to surgeon to suggest operation.

 

I was told I would be put on a 12 week waiting list from that date. This would have brought me to sometime around now. If that was the case I would not have been anywhere near signing the settlement agreement with work as I would have a very good idea if the operation had worked and then could have coped with maybe a month or so of zero pay before being fit to go back.

I think it's important here to separate the making of a complaint and seeking compensation. If your preferred outcome is some sort of financial redress then speak to a solicitor to see if they'll take on your case. Lodging a complaint with the health board is unlikely to realise a financial outcome.
