    • Better version attached with the late appeal explained more clearly for the judge. This will sound silly, but I think it would be a good idea to e-mail it to the court and UKPC on Sunday.  It's probably me being daft, but Sunday is still March, and as it's late, sending it in March rather than April will make it sound like it was less late than it really is.  if you get my drift. You can still pop in a paper version on Tuesday if you want. E-mail address for the court: [email protected] And for UKPC: [email protected]   [email protected] Defendant WS.pdf
    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • 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.
    • Dear EVRi parcelnet LTD t/a evri   evri parcelnet isnt a thing also you say defendant's response which is a bit of a weird format.   Something like   Dear EVRi, Claim no xxxx In your defence you said you could not access tracking. Please see attached receipt and label Regards

    • 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 guys,

 

reading the forum

 

I sent them a letter stating I was unaware of the 30 days notices,

I did give a verbal notice but was unaware of the written notifications.

 

I was passed my contracted 12 months period

I thought I can just cancel.

And willing to to pay the £9.99 but not the £171.45 (ish) they are asking for.

 

I got the below letter back.

 

I am now getting phone calls.

And just ignoring them.

 

Should I just keep ignoring them or do something?

Hi PB and welcome to CAG

 

1. When did you join.

 

2. When did you give verbal notice to gym staff of your desire to cancel.

 

3. What were you told by the staff about cancelling the m/ship and the DD mandate.

 

4. When did your last DD get paid by your bank.

 

When we have answers, we can advise you better. But in the meantime, ignore any demands and contact from Harlands/CRS.

 

:-)

We could do with some help from you

Thanks for the replies guys. And the welcome.

 

1. When did you join.

 

22/08/15

 

2. When did you give verbal notice to gym staff of your desire to cancel.

 

Dec 2016

I cant remember exact dates was just before Christmas or around that time.

 

When I went in and for some reason my account was already cancelled

(went to a gym not my parent gym) even thought they were taking payment.

at that time they were updating the finger print scanner.

 

They were like didnt you cancel. And I was like nope.

I said I am planning to cancel because I've moved but I'll want to use the gym now and they said yes your 12 months are long over we just need a 1 months more payment

we will reinstate your gym membership now since your still paying.

 

They open the door and they got distracted with another customer having issues with the finger print scanner and I just went to the gym assuming my last payment is the last one.

 

3. What were you told by the staff about cancelling the m/ship and the DD mandate.

 

Look above...

Maybe they were too busy to tell me about the online cancellation,

honestly if I knew it would have just taken me 2 seconds on my mobile phone.

 

I just assumed my contract is over I can just end my payment like my last gym membership.

 

4. When did your last DD get paid by your bank.

 

My last payment was on the 23/01/2017.

A payment was taken in dec and then jan.

 

I gave pretty much 2 months before cancelling my DD

 

I'm moved out from my original house so never got any notifications of missed payment.

 

The only first notification I got was an email from CRS telling me to call them and I owe the 171 (ish). And I was confused.

 

Thanks

Hi PB,

 

I suggest you write to the gym and Harlands as follows :-

 

Dear Xercise4Less and Harlands,

 

My membership at xxxxxx Gym

 

I am writing to both the gym and Harlands to avoid being further harassed by Harlands/CRS.

 

I gave the gym staff verbal notice of my wish to cancel after THEY told me my membership appeared to be already ended. This was just before Christmas 2016. I allowed DD's to be paid up to 23rd Jan 2017 and this fulfilled my obligations under the membership agreement.

 

If Xercise4Less allow Harlands/CRS to make any further demands for gym fees and/or admin fees, formal complaints will be made without further warning. County Court action for damages may also be taken to stop further demands.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Send to the gym and to Harlands by ordinary post but get a free Cert of Posting at the PO when you send them.

 

Keep us informed.

 

:-)

Just got another letter from Harland saying they dont accept and to pay up. I'm away atm so got my friend to picture the letter to me.

 

Can someone advice be where I can complain? And what other actions I can take?

Hi PB,

 

Don't move home or change phone numbers and not inform Harlands/CRS. That's the worst thing you could do. You need to know what they're up to, so you can stay ahead of them !

 

Advise them of you new address so you always know what these clowns are up to, but don't give them any new phone number. An email or postal address is all you need give them.

I move a lot and I really don't want the headache of keep informing them where I am.

 

I don't have any other creditors to keep informing apart from my bank.

 

 

Never take out loans and been very good at paying everything I own and paying back my monthly installment.

Its the first time something like this has happened to me.

 

what can I do to stop it for once and for all?

 

 

I refuse to pay them the money.

The only reason I kept paying them for the whole 15 months was because of the contract.

When I moved house I only used the gym once in 6 months.

You must ensure that Harlands have you current address.

 

If you don't do this, you run the risk of a CCJ against because you knew nothing about it. If a Claim was issued against you at any old and "last known" address, and you failed to respond or defend, a CCJ would be granted against you "in default" of your response.

 

You just don't need that !

 

what can I do to stop it for once and for all?
- Simple !! We can offer advice and support if you want to take Harlands to court. THIS would stop them in their tracks; would cost you very little initially; and when you win you get your court fees back too !

Hey, I've emailed the manager of the gym and for some reason I've been put on a new 12 months contract starting Oct 2016 in new branch of their gym. And he's investigating it further, even though I didn't miss one payment since the start of my contract. I am still getting text messages from CRS. If this doesn't sort it out then time to take them to court. Because due to their system error I've been harassed by CRS.

 

Whats the procedure? And do I need to put complaints in to trading etc? And how do I go about doing this?

 

Thanks,

Still no reply from Manager. I'm just going to email him saying he has until end of next week to deal with this or i'm going to take it higher. I had enough with text messages.

 

I cant seem to find the Thread regrading court. But how much does it cost? Will I be taking xercise4less to court of CRS?

 

Thanks

Hi PB,

 

You need to research these issues thoroughly being jumping into court too early.

 

There's no court thread as such because so few folk actually bother taking court action. They just ignore Harlands/CRS.

 

Let us know when you've given up with the gym manager and we'll take it from there.

 

Meanwhile, read as many X4Less/ Harlands/CRS threads as you can.

YUp talking to the manager was pretty useless. I'm just going to leave it now. Let them text me and send me letters. If they want to take me to court I think I have enough information to ground them.

Hi PB,

 

Ignoring them is a decent option but not as pro-active as taking Harlands and the gym to court.

 

Harlands are highly unlikely to take court action against you.

Just collecting information now. Depending on how much the annoy me I'll take them to court. Unfortunately I'l a little busy atm.Just trying to take note on when the send letters and sim.

 

I couldnt really find how much it would cost me to take them to court. But read its better to collect information then rushing in.

Just search "Small Claims Court Fees" and you'll find it costs very little to make a claim against Harlands.

 

Claiming compensation for harassment at the discretion of the court, but not exceeding £300, you should pay just £25 using the online system. Plus the Hearing Fee if Harlands let it go to court.
