    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. 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. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • 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.

in december 2011 I visited an auction site called ziinga, I found it advertised on facebook.

 

I had a look around the site once i had signed up, i read terms and conditions. I did not place a bid at that time. A few days later a get an email saying i had won a canon camera, all i needed to pay was £1.00 to get item, i payed using my debit card. a week later 31st december 2011, i checked my bank, i was shocked to find £59.99 taken by ask-ziinga.com. I contacted ziinga and asked what it was for, they say it is for premium membership of their site, I challenged them on this as i did not sign up for membership. Platinum membership they say is what I had paid for as camera was a promotional item, there was no mention of this in the email at time, they say i will have to pay £59.99 a month for 3 months. Ziinga say this is in terms and conditions, it was not when I signed up. I now class this group as fraudulant and criminal. I asked for my money back, they keep dragging their feet with excuses of we need your user name, they was alreday given this in my email, they also say to get my money back i would have to pay £28.99. I have loged a complain with my bank, who are going to monitor my account and refuse to pay ziinga. I can not find an address for ziinga to write to, or to enable me to take court action. If anyone reading this knows the address, it would be appreciated, also if my post is in wrong section please help with moving my message to the right section. thanks.:-x

Hi andrew

 

Welcome to CAG

 

All sounds very suspect. Have a read of number 11 in my signature. Also if you paid by Visa Debt, contact your card provider, ask to do a Chargeback.

http://www.which.co.uk/consumer-rights/sale-of-goods/your-rights-when-paying-by-credit-card/chargeback-on-credit-and-debit-cards/

 

I'd lodge a complaint with Trading Standards.

Hi There,

I know what you are going through. I too, have had the same.

I was astonished when I saw the site and how cheap you could potentially get things for.

I got free bids and won a sensor coffee machine for £13

so in order to get it,

I had to pay which I did.

I then had £59.99 taken out of my account a week later

so I emailed them only to be told I had signed up to their premium service which was required to get the won item.

 

I told them I was not happy so refund and cancel the item.

They told me I could not and I would have to pay for 3 months £59.99 each month.

 

I called my bank, Barclays, and told them.

 

They sent me a form and I completed it and sent it back.

that was about 5 weeks ago.

 

I have now had another statement and they have taken another £59.99 from my account.

Not even my Bank Barclays, who are totally useless could stop it even though I have the dispute going on.

 

I told Ziinga that I have not even recieved the item I won

and paid for and they then told me I have to supply them with a copy of my credit card,

drivers licence or passport and a utility bill.

 

That in its self is ridiculous.

 

Who asks for that when purchaing online.

Anyway, in answer to your question, the only details I have are as follows: This website is owned by Flamingo Intervest Ltd., OMC Chambers, P.O. Box 3152, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands and partly managed by Auction Management Ltd., Suite 238, Vincenti Buildings, 14/19 Strait Street, Valletta VLT 08, Malta

They will be making a fortune out of people who think they can get expensive items for free/cheap.

 

They are probably making a fortune. If they have no UK prescence then there is little the UK authorities can do as far as I can see.

I shoudl add, that there is probably nothign the UK authorities can do to close them down.

 

Yo ucan probably do a chargebakc as recommended above. presumably you can only do a chargeback if the company have done osmething wrong? not sure they tecnically have here - from a civil poitn of view - all of their terms are freely available on their website, they just take advantage of the fact that no one reads them

 

be interested to hear peoples sucess.

Why did you write to do the Chargeback?, you should have phoned, then backed up with a letter.

I wrote because I had already spoken with my bank in person. They did not know what to do, new rules had just been introduced by government. Writing was best way to explain my problem and what I need, talking on phone can cause problems with misinterpretation of what is beeing said. Phone calls can be ignored or something important could be writen down wrongly. Writing a letter is more important than a phone call, letters are offical and evidence, phone calls are not.

Board approval of acquisition of Flamingo Intervest Ltd and listing of new shares

 

12 Dec, 2011 06:50 CET

 

 

Reference is made to the stock exchange notices on 19 October, 21 October and 16 November 2011 and the Equivalent Document dated 15 November 2011, regarding Nio Security, Inc.'s ("Nio") share purchase agreement to acquire Flamingo Intervest Ltd ("Flamingo") controlling the entertainment shopping internet site with settlement in new shares. After completion and review of due diligence reports, the Board of Nio has resolved to complete the acquisition of Flamingo as described in the Equivalent Document dated 15 November 2011. Nio has engaged legal advisor, financial advisor and technical advisor to conduct legal due diligence, agreed upon procedures on the financial information sourced from management accounts and technical due diligence on Flamingo's internet site and related IP rights. The legal advisor has performed a due diligence review of certain documents disclosed by Flamingo and issued a report summarizing the legal assessments of the documents received. Further, the legal advisor has coordinated legal due diligences on information and documents disclosed by Flamingo and its subsidiaries subject to foreign laws. Law firms on the British Virgin Island, Malta, the Philippines and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines performed legal due diligences on information and documents subject to the laws of the British Virgin Island, Malta, the Philippines and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. The financial advisor has performed agreed upon procedures on the unaudited historical financial information for 2010 and the period 01.01.2011 to 30.06.2011 sourced from management accounts and issued a report summarizing the financial assessments of Flamingo and its subsidiaries. The financial advisor has not carried out an audit or a limited audit. The technical advisor has performed technical due diligence and issued a report summarizing the technical assessment of Flamingo and its subsidiaries, hereunder a technical assessment of the following: (i) technical platform and IP rights, (ii) development practice and (iii) solution performance. The due diligence investigation and agreed upon procedures have not revealed any material matters affecting the valuation of Flamingo or the feasibility or execution of the acquisition. Flamingo's financial historical information has not been audited and has been sourced from management accounts as described in the Equivalent Document dated 15 November 2011. Some weaknesses in reporting routines and within the accounting procedures for the periods covered have been identified during the due- diligence, with Flamingo's invoices and records being to some extent incomplete. These issues have in all material respect already been rectified by Flamingo, and the Board will further improve and implement appropriate accounting and reporting procedures and routines as soon as practicably possible following the completion of the transaction. The subsidiary of Flamingo, Auction Management Ltd has not timely submitted audited financial statements to the Company Registry on Malta. This does not hinder the subsidiary from carry out its activities, and Flamingo has made a provision for taxes payable of DKK 40,000 that covers the expected liability to the tax authorities on Malta. Nio will conduct an audit on Auction Management Ltd and report to the Registry of Companies on Malta. Flamingo's management accounts have been compiled based on Danish GAAP. Nio will for the fiscal year 2011 change its accounting principles to IFRS which may impact the financial statements of Nio including the pro forma financial information included in the Equivalent Document dated 15 November 2011. In connection with the transaction, the sellers of Flamingo that received the new shares as settlement has entered into lock-up agreements, where the sellers of Flamingo has agreed not to sell any shares in Nio for a period up until 31 December 2013. The ultimate owners (sellers) of Flamingo, Masih Nikdar, Dennis Mikkelsen and Thomas Madsen will be employed by Flamingo with effect from 1 January 2012. Pursuant to the SPA the employees (in their capacity as ultimate sellers) are subject to a non-competition restriction until 31 December 2013. Further, Flamingo is entitled to impose an additional six months' non- competition restriction on each of the employees following the termination of the employment agreements against a compensation for of EUR 20,000 per month. Nio confirms that the 60,000,000 new shares issued as settlement for Flamingo have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and that the shares have been fully paid and validly issued. After the issue of new shares, the number of outstanding shares in Nio is 105,634,309, each with a par value of USD 0.10. The 60,000,000 new shares will be registered with ISIN US 459 378 1051 and listed on Oslo Børs on or about 12 December 2011. For further details please refer to the Equivalent Document dated 15 November 2011. For further information, please contact Tore Formo, CEO, Telephone +47 91 66 86 78. This information is subject of the disclosure requirements acc. to §5-12 vphl (Norwegian Securities Trading Act

I have recived a letter today from my bank co-op, i am informed they have repaid the money taken by Ziinga from my account. I am very concerned that a bank does not listen to it's customers, and re-pays money after a recharge was made against a fraudulant company. Banks sent me paperwork from ziinga outlining it's terms and conditions showing charge of 59.99, bank paid ziinga 61.94 against my wishes. I have written to the co-op bank and asked for a recharge, but I do not expect to get a satisfactory outcome, i am very annoyed. Anyone who has any idea what to do next would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Folks...

 

After Ziinga admitted by email that my account had been cancelled, but then took money from my bank account.. I contacted both Ziinga and the Co-Op bank as they are my bank... I requested that they put a prevention case forward to stop Ziinga.com from taking the money fraudulently.. This has happened and nothing has been taken from my account since...

 

You must contact the Fraudulent tranactions team at the Co-Op Hq and they will take action..

 

If you need anymore help please contact me..

 

regards

 

Peter

I am another falling for the belief that I could get things really cheap on Ziinga. I didn't know until I had read the "Terms and Conditions" that my stupidity would cost me not far off £200 in charges. I signed and cancelled within 30 mins. They kindly charged me £28 for breaking the contract. I called my bank and they would do nothing because I had used my debit card. I am a pensioner and can't afford to loose any cash, but I've been caught out here. My advise to anyone visiting this site is to stay well away.

Hi There,

I have also been scammed by ask-ziinga.com on the 13th Feb 2012 I paid £2 shipping fee for an old style iPod which I have never received and on the 21st Feb they took £59.99 from my Vanquis credit card. Then on the 24th March the tool £1 followed by £58.99.

 

I have contacted Vanquis and they say its a site subscription fee and can only be cancelled by telling ask-ziing.com to do so, after looking on the web I see hundreds of people with the same issues and ziinga just seem to be getting away with it :(

 

All Vanquis said was if ziinga dont sort it out to get back in touch with vanquis to see if they can do anything, I ask what is the point on card insurance.
