    • Hi welcome to the Forum.  If a PCN is sent out late ie after the 12th day of the alleged offence, the charge cannot then be transferred from the driver to the keeper.T he PCN is deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch so in your case, unless you can prove that Nexus sent the PCN several days after they claim you have very little chance of winning that argument. All is not lost since the majority of PCNs sent out are very poorly worded so that yet again the keeper is not liable to pay the charge, only the driver is now liable. If you post up the PCN, front and back we will be able to confirm whether it is compliant or not. Even if it is ok, there are lots of other reasons why it is not necessary to pay those rogues. 
    • Hi 1 Date of the infringement  arr 28/03/24 21:00, dep 29/03/24 01.27 2 Date on the NTK  08/04/2024 (Date of Issue) 3 Date received Monday 15/04/24 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012?  Yes 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No  7 Who is the parking company? GroupNexus 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Petrol Station Roadchef Tibshelf South DE55 5T 'operating in accordance with the BPA's Code of Practice' I received a Parking Charge letter to keeper on Monday 15/04/24, the 17th day after the alleged incident. My understanding is that this is outside the window for notifying. The issue date was 08/04/2024 which should have been in good time for it to have arrived within the notice period but in fact it actually arrived at lunchtime on the 15th. Do I have to prove when it arrived  (and if so how can I do that?) or is the onus on them to prove it was delivered in time? All I can find is that delivery is assumed to be on the second working day after issue which would have been Weds 10//04/24 but it was actually delivered 5 days later than that (thank you Royal Mail!). My husband was present when it arrived - is a family member witness considered sufficient proof?
    • lookinforinfo - many thanks for your reply. It would be very interesting to get the letter of discontinuance. The court receptionist said that the county court was in Gloucester 'today' so that makes me think that some days it is in Gloucester and some days its in Cheltenham, it was maybe changed by the courts and i was never informed, who knows if DCBL were or not. My costs were a gallon of petrol and £3.40 for parking. I certainly don't want to end up in court again that's for sure but never say never lol. Its utterly disgusting the way these crooks can legally treat motorists but that's the uk for you. I'm originally from Scotland so it's good that they are not enforceable there but they certainly still try to get money out of you. I have to admit i have lost count of the pcn's i have received in the last 2 yr and 4 months since coming to England for work, most of them stop bothering you on their own eventually, it was just this one that they took it all the way. Like i mentioned in my WS the the likes of Aldi and other companies can get them cancelled but Mcdonalds refused to help me despite me being a very good customer.   brassednecked - many thanks   honeybee - many thanks   nicky boy - many thanks    
    • Huh? This is nothing about paying just for what I use - I currently prefer the averaged monthly payment - else i wouldn't be in credit month after month - which I am comfortable with - else I wold simply request a part refund - which I  would have done if they hadn't reduced my monthly dd after the complaint I raised (handled slowly and rather badly) highlighted the errors in their systems (one of which they do seem to have fixed) Are you not aware DD is always potentially variable? ah well, look it up - but my deal is a supposed to average the payments over a year, and i dont expect them to change payments (up or down) without my informed agreement ESPECIALLY when I'm in credit over winter.   You are happy with your smart meter - jolly for you I dont want one, dont have to have one  - so wont   I have a box that tells me my electricity usage - was free donkeys years ago and shows me everything I need to know just like a smart meter but doesnt need a smart meter,  and i can manually set my charges - so as a side effect - would show me if the charges from the supplier were mismatched. Doesn't tell me if the meters actually calibrated correctly - but neither does your smart meter. That all relies on a label and the competence of the testers - and the competence of any remote fiddling with the settings. You seem happy with that - thats fine. I'm not.

    • 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.

Hi All,

 

I like you all am after refund of charges with RBS, ive been reading your threads and have a couple of questions if anyone can help:

 

I have received what appears to be a standerd letter of defence from Cobbetts, Part 18 ect, I have also received my AQ questionare, i am proposing to reply to Cobbets with the letter in Agusta 109s thread but at the foot of the template it suggests one figure to be entered, Q. what does this figure represent?

 

And a lot of people are talking about a spread sheet showing details of particular charges and dates ect, I originally sent RBS a list of Dates and the particular charge taken on that date and then i gave a cumulative figure for interest,(i did not detail interest against each date and charge)

 

Details of each individual charge...................

 

25/01/2006 35.00

11/04/2006 35.00

ect

ect

 

i.e: Total of charges 1726.00

+ interest 254.30

total of claim 1980.30,

 

can i send details in this format to Cobbetts?

How did you calculate the interest? what rate did you use?

 

If you are sure its correct then a cumulative figure should be ok.

 

Cobblers do like it to be itemised though and may try to stall.

if its not too much trouble i would put the figures into the spreadsheet and itemise everthing. They then have NO excuses. They are famous for stalling at the slightest mistake.

Used the interest calculator on this site, rate 8%, now i have calculated interest against each individual charge i get a different figure, out by 4.54p in total so back to my original question, shall i just put a rounded up figure for interest to Cobbetts or shall i itemise each one and hope they dont get a calculator out and add all the little bits of interest up and find i am trying to claim 4.54 more in interest than im entitled to do.

 

Mistake must have been on my original calculation, checked and double checked this time.

 

Please help

its best to itemise each one.

 

date, type of charge, amount, calculated interest @ 8%

with total charges and total interest at the bottom

 

Or Just send the whole spreadsheet printout showing the interest as well.

 

the 4.54p may not be your fault... the spreadsheet uses .00022 to calculate interest when more properly it should be .0002191

 

it makes a difference (small)

Hi All,

 

I have just posted my reply tp Cobbetts & will hand my questionare to the court offices tomorrow (deadline for reply to court is 27 Sept).

 

I have noted in my letter to Cobbets that my bank have been sent my schedule of charges on 2 previous occasions.

 

Will sit and wait for letter from Cobbetts now.

 

Some of you have had some form of offer by this point, would there be any particular reason in your opinions why i have had no form of offer at any stage?

 

Soldier on.

Hi All,

 

I have today received a coppy of the allocation questionare that Cobbetts submitted, I noted that they had ticked the Yes box for the question Do you agree that the small claims track is the most suitable track for this claim.

 

And they have included a photocopy of the response letter and schedule of charges that i sent to them in response to there requesst for more info.

 

Is this normal ?

 

Keep up the good fight.
