    • Hi. Could you post up what they've sent please so we can see what the charge is? Cover up your name and address and their reference number. HB
    • I've looked through all our old NPE threads, and as far as we know they have never had the bottle to do court. There are no guarantees of course, but when it comes to put or shut up they definitely tend towards shut up. How about something like -   Dear Jonathan and Julie, Re: PCN no.XXXXX cheers for your Letter Before Claim.  I rolled around on the floor in laughter at the idea that you actually expected me to take this tripe seriously and cough up. I'll write to you not some uninterested third party, thanks all the same, because you have are the ones trying to threaten me about this non-existent "debt". Go and look up Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd, saddos.  Oh, while you're at it, go and look up your Subject Access Request obligations - we all know how you ballsed that up way back in January to March. Dear, dear, dear - you couldn't resist adding your £70 Unicorn Food Tax, you greedy gets.  Judges don't like these made-up charges, do they? You can either drop this foolishness now or get a hell of a hammering in court.  Both are fine with me.  Summer is coming up and I would love a holiday at your expense after claiming an unreasonable costs order under CPR 27.14(2)(g). I look forward to your deafening silence.   That should show them you're not afraid of them and draw their attention to their having legal problems of their own with the SAR.  If they have any sense they'll crawl back under their stone and leave you in peace.  Over the next couple of days invest in a 2nd class stamp (all they are worth) and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."

    • 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.

First post

Sent the Data Protection Act request letter on 31st July requesting complete list of charges relating to my banking history.

Today received copies of statements relating to the period August 2000 - May 2004. with a letter stating the information related to the period for period i had reqested.

This is not correct as I did not specify these dates.

My question is will I have to send another letter asking for the missing information and pay another £10 ?

Also how far back can I go 7 years or 6 years.

Best regards to everyone

6 years. Did you close the a/c in 2004? if so then the statements would be for the right time period....tot it up and request it back!

Do they owe you statements from 2004 - 2006? If so, then you don't need to send them another £10, write or phone and tell them that they haven't fulfilled the 'subject to access request' under the DPA and need to forward the remaining statements.

 

You should have a parachute account set up as they probably will close it sometime after you get to court stage.

Hi Falkirkjambo,

 

I am also going to chase the BOS but will be doing it in England, serving against their English headoffice (that is where the mail they are sending is coming from). That way I can go for upto £5k and also the 6 years.

 

As said before in Scotland it is max of £750 for a small claim and only 5 years.

If I have helped click my scales....

Debt Mountain

About to claim £1,341.94. Should I break it down into 2 chunks? If so which chunk should I go for first? The most recent or the oldest? Also Should I be sending my corres to the head office?

Best wishes

I would choose the oldest debt so it doesn't "expire", and your next claim would definately fall within thier damage limitations. I don't know the BOS's address - you can always post it to, or take it to your local branch - they will submit to relevant department. If you choose the latter get a reciept!

 

Sorry for calling you Jimbo and not Jambo lol!

A bit confused, I copied the Preliminary approach for repayment leter from the library and it includes asking for interest .see below

What I require

I calculate that you have taken £XXXXX plus £XXX which you have charged me in overdraft interest for the sum which you have taken. Total £XXXXX .

I enclose a schedule of the charges which I am claiming with this letter

Best wishes

I would break it into 2 chunks as anything between 750 and 1500 has extra court costs and also more at risk if you should lose. If you think there are more charges in the extra year from Scottish 5 years to English 6 years then go after them in England, others have successfully done this. Same process, raise the N1 form and post it with the "120 fee to an english court nearest them (the defendant).

 

 

I am going for the English head office so I can go for the full amount (6 years) in 1 go.

 

From the first letter I sent (to my local branch) requesting the data protection blah blah I received a reply from their head office in England, so from now on I will be dealing with them as it suits my need.

 

I expect to be claiming in excess of £2000 from them. probably more now that I have remembered I had 2 loans and 2 mortgagfe accounts with them also.

 

hopefully I will just lump them all together.

 

I am also a little confused about when to mention the interest. From what I have read (FAQ, hundreds of posts) I think you just tell them the amount of charges in the first request, but in the second you attach the sheet with all charges, dates, interest (excluding the Judicial interest as that is only added should it go to court).

 

have fun, I am......I keep remembering the phone calls, nasty letters and dreading getting home to the mail.....

If I have helped click my scales....

Also still not clear on the issue of claiming back the interest on the preliminary request letter
