    • His financial situation isn’t great, and the landlord has made lots of things up. The things he’s put isn’t true at all. My friend did tell the full truth with incoming and outgoing, I helped him fill in his form and he checked bills etc. to make sure it was right. His wage is ok, but not as good as the landlord thinks it is,  and he doesn’t have anything spare. How much are they likely to take from him? Should he send any reply?  the letter just says to take the court letter with him. 
    • 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

    • 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.

I am worried about what my husband proposing to do to save going to dentist and wondered if any other Caggers tried this and if they had any success?

 

We are both on a low household income and unable to afford dentists or even know of any decent ones as the NHS ones we saw over the last few years been not a lot of good and one of them even burnt my husbands mouth with the drill handle getting to hot so as well as not having any money we don't even know of any we can trust or feel confident about

 

My husband has a crown coming loose and he is thinking about using some super glue to glue it back in when it does come outHe is very sensible man and know what he is doing and used to using glue so hopefully will be able to glue it back in alright but wondered if anyone else had done this to save money and avoid expense and hassle of finding a decent dentist and if it was successful ? Though I know it would not be recommended

No idea whether Superglue is toxic, although i recall rumours that it was originally invented to stick skin/wounds together (although think I got that from the film, Dog Soldiers !).

superglue is not waterproof and will eventually breakdown.

under the compress/uncompress of chewing

 

also, by name its Cyanoacrylate

 

a by-product if heated is cyanide!!

There are several crown repair kits available to buy over the counter - Boots stock one and it's supposed to be a temporary repair until you can get to a dentist but a friend of mine had used it and it lasted for quite some time.

I've just asked my friend what he used - it's called Dentek dental first aid kit from Boots £7.50 (ish) contains a paste you mix to secure the crown.

Hello there.

 

I don't know much about this but I would have thought dentists used special glues? I would advise great caution until you understand what you're doing.

 

My best, HB

 

yes myabe one idea for me to do is google and try and find out more about the special glues these dentists use! As they must be safe if used by dentists! would be lovely if i could locate the special glue proper dentists use!

Thanks for sugestion ell enn But both me and have tried this product and similat products to try and cement crowns fix fillings butfound that we did not get on well with them and they did not last long!

 

I have got several broken teeth at back and lost one of my crowns as tooth decayed underneath it but luckily all my teeth being back teeth and crown at back too it been not so bad for me as they do not show or stop me biting on food. so i given up for myself but my poor OH has several front teeth capped

I must admit i do hate the idea of my OH using it and sounds scary

 

,I did tell him about your post but he so desperate he wants to still try it and i suppose the glue will not get very hot in his mouth and stay where it is until crown comes of again

 

.That is hopeing this will happen and do no harm. but i do hope i can find something better and so grateful for every ones suggestions and wouldm be so grateful for any furthur ideas or names of glues dentists do use

 

As like you say dont really want him putting something like super glue in his mouth but he is deserate to try anything rather than go to dentist

I wouldn't use Superglue as it may not only be toxic, it could also burn the inside of your mouth!

 

There is a product call 'Refit' which I have used, it's available from some chemists but none of the large chains stock it, at least not in my area, but can sometimes be found in smaller independent chemists. Failing that, it's available online, as it happens I've just ordered some yesterday. Don't think I'm allowed to post a link here but you can ask your local chemist or do a search. The product is made especially for cementing lost crowns and suchlike and costs around £4. Not cheap but it has 3 capsules of the powder you mix with water.

 

Hope you find it and it helps!

 

Thanks egmatic I Will have to look up about Refit! Will be lovely if it works as a long term solution .

Hiya, I know you asked what others thought about your OH's plan with the glue, and i have to say i

 

have tried all sorts in the past, between all us, ive tried the super glue thing myself ,(dont tell him) it's

 

dangerous and a rubbish idea, (I had major soft tissue probs, you can tell him that)

 

others caggers have warned you , it wont work. Being genuinely caught in the too poor to pay but

 

not rich enough to manage is awful when your in pain. Have you tried your local university that train

 

dentists. It's a highly specialisted course and they'd be supervised while treating someone. Lets face it,

 

your not asking for root canal treatment. Someone may be more knowledgable than me in this field

 

may give you better advice, but at end of day, all advice is re:- temp measures, eventually something is

 

going to have to be done. A lot of dentists see it as cosmetic ( which it is, until theres a prob, and

 

your left with a ground down tooth and a nerve bearing root) I hope you get him sorted, OH's in pain

 

can really affected your mental wellbeing after a while, it may possibly be good murder defence, but obviously the crimnal experts would have to advise you futher:lol:

Don't do superglue. :oops: I've got a crown held in by something called "ToofyPegs" (you can get it on Amazon), and it's been there for months despite being at the front of my mouth. Nothing seems to budge it. It costs about 4 or 5 quid, and it will save your hubby having to explain to A&E how come he's glued his teeth to his cheek. :oops:

Thankyou for suggestion LaughingGirl!

 

I found Toofypeg on Amazon and have just ordered some.

 

It did have a lot of good reviews on Amazon as well ! So i told my hubby about your good experiences of it and he has agreed to try some :-) Thank goodness!

 

So now fingers crossed that he has the same success that you and numerous other reviewers on Amazon had with it!

It was very heartening and reassuring to find so many good reviews about it:-)

I just thought I would add to the discussion: Something similar happened to me in 2012 so I called up an emergency dentist and they dealt with it.

 

As long as you have some sort of benefits you will qualify for free treatment.

 

If you dont then you may qualify for a fixed price treatment that isn't too expensive, not sure. Hope you got this sorted out worried sick. I have never understood why we can't just have the Dr see to ALL ailments as a vet does an animal?
