    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?
    • so a new powerless B2B debt DCA set up less than a month ago with a 99% success rate... operating on a NWNF basis , but charging £30 to set up your use of them. that's gonna last 5mins.... = SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. a DCA is NOT a BAILIFF and have  ZERO legal powers on ANY debt - no matter WHAT its type. dx

    • You could send an SAR to DCbl on the pretext that you are going for a breach of your GDPR . They should then send the purported letter of discontinuance which may show why it ended up in Gloucester and see if you can get your  costs back on the day. It obviously won't be much but  at least perhaps a small recompense for your wasted day. Not exactly wasted since you had a great win  albeit much sweeter if you had beat them in Court. But a win is a win so well done. We will miss you as it has been almost two years since you first started out on this mission. { I would n't be surprised if the wrong Court was down to DCBL}. I see you said "till the next time" but I am guessing you will be avoiding private patrolled car parks for a while.🙂
    • It is extremely disappointing that you haven't told us anything about the result of the hearing. You came here at the very last minute and the regulars - all unpaid volunteers - sweated blood trying to get an acceptable Witness Statement prepared in an extremely short time. The least you could have done is tell us how the hearing went, information invaluable for future users. Evidently 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.

Anyone got any ideas about a summer 2012 meet?

 

I's say Brum again or Wales.

 

Can put up at least 10 people at my house and there's a new Premier Inn 6 miles away which has it's own pub/restaurant and another decent pub/restaurant ten minutes walk that does very good food for excellent prices...

 

Anyone up for it?

Yes, BB, cheers for your kind offer.

 

We've been better (IB to ESA migration :madgrin: amongst the usual mithering/paperwork) but you've just got to hope it all turns out all right in the end, eh?

 

Take care, it would be lovely to meet you some day & buy you & a few other helpful CAGgers a pint:-)

 

Right, back to watching Cymru v. Ffrainc (from between my fingers....!)

Actually, the only CAG meets I've been to have been Birmingham August 2009, 2010 and 2011. I rightly use my disabled person's rail card for discount on my travel, booked a room to share with other members to cut cost to a bare minimum and, apart from hotel breakfast spent for the three trips about £20 on food, £80 on drinks because I bought a few bottles of wine, £30 on taxi fares from train to hotel and back. ... For example: 2009, train fare £50, taxis £10, room for two £60, breakfast for two £20, internet £10 (which I didn't use). 2010 after my coma: train fare £50, taxis £10, room and breakfast for two £80. 2011: Train £50, taxis £10, room for three for two nights including breakfast £189.

Hi, nice to hear from you again... Hope your dissertation was successful and the proof reading was up to scratch... Unfortunately even big and diverse community groups such as CAG have a life cycle/time-scale of any other comparable online communities. We can but try to understand such things and either move on or further diversify. That is up to the powers that be...

 

I lurk in the background and come out to help when I can...

 

THB, since my disabilities got so much worse I spend more time on those groups, though never losing site of this group...

i can understand what you are going through on your disabilities, i myself am just about to be made redundant through ill health retirement

 

can you remember in the old days of cag, we were a commnunity, everybody had an equal say.

if anybody made an error in their posting we had people like PT, john chriss, or peter barred educate us with good manners.

that how people started to learn things

now if you post in error you get people straight down your throat with abuse and a knowall mentality. you cant even air a voice or criticism without being moderated

the spirit of the forum has now gone, i doubt we will ever have that sense of community/family back again

 

once again

 

lots of love and all the best

Sorry to read that you're being made redundant.

 

Personally, I think that the spirit of CAG will re emerge, how long it take I do not know...

Any and all CAG meets have been and gone without a lot of us at least being informed...

 

There is no Birmingham meet this year as far as I know...

 

However, there have been other meets during the last year and especially three months; and the last three years in fact; in various parts of the country which were private. No worries, up to them...

 

It was the same in 2010 when I came out of the coma. As mentioned a callous b'tard made very ungracious comments about me of which it should have been lucky to not get a libel/defamation/slander suit slapped on it...

 

I was ostracised even though I made an innocent enquiry/joke and was absolutely viciously and vehemently slated...

With the greatest of respect, I should have been in London today giving evidence to a parliamentary session. Due to ill health I was unable to attend, however, I did make a video for the session... I also appeared on the Sunday Politics Show and the six o'clock news... I am in no way negative, in fact the complete opposite, to the detriment of my own life and health...
