    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

have you had your medical? if not you should continue on the assessment rate until you do.

if you have had the medical and the payments have stopped, you can assume you failed to get the 15 points, this happened to me.

 

contact your local DWP office and comence an appeal to get your money re-instated

Yes I have had my medical and I have been placed in the support group. I get a letter saying I would be getting ESA support group from the 20th of April except I get paid on Mondays. I seem to have got paid one weeks ESA support group from today plus three days of last week (friday, saturday and sunday). This is fine however I thought that normally you got esa paid fortnightly? Do you know if this means I will get paid fortnightly from next week?

Under most normal circumstances, ESA is paid fortnightly in arrears. Your payment date is determined by the last two digits of your NI number.

 

If the last two digits represent an even number your next payment will be due on the 30th April; if they're odd, it will be 6th May. Without knowing precisely what period is covered by the payment you received today, it's hard to say what you will receive on your next payment date.

My national insurance number ends with odd digits which means I should get my next payment on the 6th of May.

 

I am a bit confused as I was expecting to get two weeks money today and what I actually got works out to about £70 less than that so if they don't pay me agan until the 6th of may then just pay me 2 weeks as normal then that would like missing out a big chunk of a weeks benefit money. I really hate to complain about it but money has been so tight that I really need every penny.

 

My claim letter does say something about the amounts on the page applying from the 24th of April which may have something to do with it even though the letter also says I will be paid ESA at the rate of £119.85 a week from the 20th of April.

 

At first when I checked my account I thought they had paid me one weeks money from today plus the three days from friday the 20th of April but what will happen with next weeks money if they are unlikely to pay me again until the 6th of May now?

could the part payment be the arrears? and you will get the new level from xxxx

 

It could be and I did think that at first and thought they might start paying as normal from next week but if they start paying me two weeks from the 6th of may that means they will just skip a week altogether and I will lose that money as far as I can tell. I hate having to call the DWP up but I guess I might have to just to find out what is happening here.

You shouldn't lose any money as long as you have sick notes to cover you until the day you were placed in the Support Group. It would be worth calling them to find out what today's payment was.

have they just paid you then, a week at the old rate remember it has gone up due to the annual increase, and three days, and then not paid you anything for the 20th to the 23rd, things like this happen... especially if you have had a change... if the amount you have received is about £104 then I would say this is whats happened

I have a sick not that covers me until July I think, well beyond the assesment period in any case. I will give them a call tomorrow then, something to look forward to :)

Yeah I just got paid today. I wasn't worried about getting paid for the 20th to the 23rd really but that just weemed to make the most sense really figures wise. I seem to have got paid about £169 which makes no sense as it isn't the old rate or the new rate it only makes sense as the new rate and three days. but then next week is missing. I guess I just have to bite the bullet and phone them.

 

When did the rates actually change over for ESA? My letter says rate stated should be paid from the start of my payments but perhaps they are only from the end of april.

I seem to remember that benefits are paid in arrears; not advance.
