    • Hi LFI, With regard to the ANPR cameras in your post #65, while I was on the phone to the Planning Department, they did take a look at Google Streetview and went back to 2012 where they could see the ANPR cameras in place so therefore they would have deemed consent. I had previously read the T&C Planning Regulations and had read the section on deemed consent so I understood the point they made on the phone. It doesn't matter though, that doesn't harm my case any, and I shouldn't really mention this now, but in the past I was a member of a scheme that gave me access to legal advice, I have spoken to a barrister previously through this scheme on another matter and I think I am still a member. I am going to check and if I still am,  I am going to discuss my case with a barrister or solicitor, whichever the scheme deems appropriate. I will let you know the outcome. I am also going to take Bankfodders advice in the sticky and go to the local court and ask if I can sit in on a case in the Judges office.
    • deed?  you mean consent order you and her signed? concluding the case as long as you nor she break it's conditions signed upto? dx Yes sorry. they called it a deed at first in court.  Then Judge said she was happy to have it sealed as something else  exact names of orders in message above.     The disease was tested for when his cardiac testing was done immediately after purchase and part of the now sealed case.   However, results were disclosed incorrectly and I only found out  two days ago.   This disease did not form part of my knowledge during the case as I had been informed of a normal result that was not the case.   it is perfect clarity of a genetic disease where as the previous cardiac issue could be congenital until the pup is genetically tested. 
    • Hi, Halifax recently sold a credit card account of mine to Cabot. I am unemployed and have no assets and was thinking of making token £1 payments for 12-18 months in order to drag things out a bit and reduce the chance of Cabot being able to get the correct CCA documents from Halifax if I requested them in future. However, I saw on the pages on this forum about defending county court claims that one of the standard approaches when defending such claims is to say “I had an account with bank X, but I don’t remember the details and so don’t know if I owe this debt…”. If I made £1 payments to Cabot, would it prevent me from using such a defence in future? OC: Halifax DC: Cabot/Wescot Card account opened: 2016 Defaulted: 2023
    • Paperwork says sealed consent order and composite settlement agreement      YES  ADDISONS DISEASE 
    • Hi, This may be the wrong place for a thread BUT If you receive a defence, can you send a CPR 31.14 request for document mentioned in the defence, and then apply to proceed with the case only after (14) days passed or they respond OR is it only if you receive a claim I see @dx100uk thread is for when you receive a claim, but can you also do the same when you receive a defence?

    • 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.

OP, it's not your duty to go to the underwriters. Swinton have cocked up, and admitted liability - THEY need to go to their underwriter and get them to reinstate your original policy to a state whereby it was never interrupted. They'll be buying you a replacement vehicle at this rate, if the police crush it!

There appears to be a bit of defeatism going on here.

 

You have a letter from Swinton admitting it was their fault, but they are not helping you further.

 

Get onto Swinton Head office and demand to speak to their Head of customer service. They can get this all resolved with a couple of hours.

 

 

No I agree, they are not helping me much. He wrote, Swinton takes full responsibility for the situation I find myself in and will re-imburse the cost of getting my car out of the impound, plus the monetary difference with the insurers who will be insuring the car.

 

 

I contacted head office and was given the number for the Distribution Director, who I was told was at lunch and not available until Monday.

"Swinton takes full responsibility for the situation I find myself in and will re-imburse the cost of getting my car out of the impound, plus the monetary difference with the insurers who will be insuring the car"

 

 

Well the easiest way for them to do that would be to DO THEIR BLOODY JOB, get on to the underwriters, get your insurance reinstated, and liaise with the police to establish that you WERE insured continuously, and that they should release your car and end any action against you.

I would feel that once the documents are in your hands and the letter from Swinton, a trip to your local plod would be in order to get the information updated. Hopefully that should be the end of the matter in regards to the insurance issue.

 

Swinton ought to be offering a 'goodwill gesture' for their incompetence not you asking.

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.

Everything I say is opinion only. If you are unsure on any comment made, you should see a qualified solicitor

Swinton head office can do all of this with the underwriters help if need be. Insurers normally have contact with Police forces on a regular basis and can supply relevant documents to confirm Insurance in place at time of being stopped and to get it removed from the Pound. They can also pay Pound fees and aby recovery costs.

 

You need to write out an invoice of the costs Swinton need to cover and also ask for a sum in compensation. The costs are amounts you can evidence as amounts you can have or need to incur, if Swinton have not paid them for you already. Then compensation is the inconveience factor you believe is due.

We could do with some help from you.

At this stage let Swinton know the matter isn't over yet, that once the dust settles you'll be looking for compensation.

 

Make sure you are removed from any applicable databases and this will have no undue effect on you, then considering that this is pretty bad maladministration on Swinton's behalf causing a lot of distress and inconvenience, I'd be looking at the £500.00 to £750.00 mark.
