    • Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant .... I said DCBL because I was reading a few threads about them discontinuing claims and getting spanked in court! Meant  YOU  Highview !!!  🖕
    • Though it would be Highview you would  pursue. DCBL are nonentities-on their best day,
    • Yep, I read that and thought about trying to find out what the consideration and grace period is at Riverside but not sure I can. I know they say "You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is"  but I doubt they would disclose it to the public, maybe I should have asked in my CPR 31.14 letter? Yes, I think I can get rid of 5 minutes. I am also going to include a point about BPA CoP: 13.2 The reference to a consideration period in 13.1 shall not apply where a parking event takes place. I think that is Deception .... They giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other! One other point to note, the more I read, the more I study, the more proficient I feel I am becoming in this area. Make no mistake DBCL if you are reading this, when I win in court, if I have the grounds to make any claims against you, such as breach of GDPR, I shall be doing so.

    • the Town and Country [advertisments ] Regulations 2007 are not easy to understand. Most Council planing officials don't so it's good that you found one who knows. Although he may not have been right if the rogues have not been "controlling" in the car park for that long. The time only starts when the ANPR signs go up, not how long the area has been used as a car park.   Sadly I have checked Highview out and they have been there since at least 2014 . I have looked at the BPA Code of Practice version 8 which covers 2023 and that states Re Consideration and Grace Periods 13.3 Where a parking location is one where a limited period of parking is permitted, or where drivers contract to park for a defined period and pay for that service in advance (Pay & Display), this would be considered as a parking event and a Grace Period of at least 10 minutes must be added to the end of a parking event before you issue a PCN. It then goes on to explain a bit more further down 13.5 You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is. 13.6 Neither a consideration period or a grace period are periods of free parking and there is no requirement for you to offer an additional allowance on top of a consideration or grace period. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________So you have  now only overstayed 5 minutes maximum since BPA quote a minimum of 10 minutes. And it may be that the Riverside does have a longer period perhaps because of the size of the car park? So it becomes even more incumbent on you to remember where the extra 5 minutes could be.  Were you travelling as a family with children or a disabled person where getting them in and out of the car would take longer. Was there difficulty finding a space, or having to queue to get out of the car park . Or anything else that could account for another 5 minutes  without having to claim the difference between the ANPR times and the actual times.

    • 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 have decided that I am going to make an official complaint to the university.

I studied at the Uni 2011/12 but interrupted my studies due to ongoing ill health.

The university led me to believe that I would be able to re-attend the full year (at no extra charge) because I dropped out of my one-year course due to having depression and dyslexia.

I was under the impression I made it clear that I was not leaving the course and was interrupting my studies, due to long-term sickness.

I never had an exit interview and never signed anything to say I was leaving the course.

I have had an offer from the university to resit the course this academic year September 2013, however it is saying that I need to pay the full set of fees for the year.

I have questioned this and the finance arm of the Uni are adamant that I will not be able to sit the course for no extra cost and should have to pay the full cost on top of what I have already paid.

Effectively paying two lots of fees when I have yet to have a proper course of study.

I feel the university

a) have failed me in their duty of care.

b) Have discriminated against me in relation to my disability

c) Have exasperated my condition, knowing full well about my condition

(1 because the course leader had had my doctors reports and 2 because I informed the finance team)

and then the finance team employed solicitors to deal with me.

 

It seems as though because the university has so many different arms to it,

the finance department does not communicate with the course department and so on

therefore leading to many of the unneeded problems I have had to deal with.

 

The university has made me an offer to resit the course but to pay £4500,

if I do not accept it I wont be able to sit, as the deadline is Monday.

I am thinking should I accept the offer but only on the premises that my complaint is upheld?

Really could do with some advice!

Thanks for taking the time to read this

Kregards

Billy

Hi there,

 

thanks for getting back to me,

There is no possibility of putting a CCJ on me?

 

Regards and thanks for your kind help

 

Cheers

if a claimform were to be issued

it can only be done under debt owners name

 

for a fake/tame solicitor AKA different letterhead in the same printer that the DCA used..

to issue a claimform cannot happen unless their 'client' owns the debt.

Ignore them, don't give them the time of day, otherwise you'll give them delusions of grandeur and they'll start thinking their silly missives carry some weight.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Instruct solicitors to do what?

 

I might instruct next doors cat to press the lift button?

 

It just shows you how puerile DCA's are, they're still playing about with solicitors, when the rest of us know we're more qualified than most sols!

no

instruct means nothing

 

if you look at the STA letters as said before

you will see they are acting for a client

 

only the client [owner of the debt]

can do court

stop panicking

They can instruct a solicitor if they want but as they have no "locus standi" it wont do them any good, the court isnt allowed to listen to them and they will have just wasted a load of money.

They know this but hope you dont.

"Instruct solicitors to issue a claim against you in the county court" as per their letter
