    • Hi LFI, With regard to the ANPR cameras in your post #65, while I was on the phone to the Planning Department, they did take a look at Google Streetview and went back to 2012 where they could see the ANPR cameras in place so therefore they would have deemed consent. I had previously read the T&C Planning Regulations and had read the section on deemed consent so I understood the point they made on the phone. It doesn't matter though, that doesn't harm my case any, and I shouldn't really mention this now, (this is what you reminded me of on another thread) but in the past I was a member of a scheme that gave me access to legal advice, I have spoken to a barrister previously through this scheme on another matter and I think I am still a member. I am going to check if I am still a member of the scheme, and if I am I will discuss my case with a barrister or solicitor, whichever the scheme deems appropriate. I will let you know the outcome. I am also going to take Bankfodders advice in the sticky and go to the local court and ask if I can sit in on a case in the Judges office.
    • deed?  you mean consent order you and her signed? concluding the case as long as you nor she break it's conditions signed upto? dx Yes sorry. they called it a deed at first in court.  Then Judge said she was happy to have it sealed as something else  exact names of orders in message above.     The disease was tested for when his cardiac testing was done immediately after purchase and part of the now sealed case.   However, results were disclosed incorrectly and I only found out  two days ago.   This disease did not form part of my knowledge during the case as I had been informed of a normal result that was not the case.   it is perfect clarity of a genetic disease where as the previous cardiac issue could be congenital until the pup is genetically tested. 
    • Hi, Halifax recently sold a credit card account of mine to Cabot. I am unemployed and have no assets and was thinking of making token £1 payments for 12-18 months in order to drag things out a bit and reduce the chance of Cabot being able to get the correct CCA documents from Halifax if I requested them in future. However, I saw on the pages on this forum about defending county court claims that one of the standard approaches when defending such claims is to say “I had an account with bank X, but I don’t remember the details and so don’t know if I owe this debt…”. If I made £1 payments to Cabot, would it prevent me from using such a defence in future? OC: Halifax DC: Cabot/Wescot Card account opened: 2016 Defaulted: 2023

    • 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.

Following on after a successful request for PPI refunding from Citi Cards (hello Paralegals :-) ) - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?433020-Hillards-v-Citi-Cards-(PPI)

 

They have been kind enough to send me a cheque for the PPI and a large part of that is being reserved for potential court fees as I am now moving on to reclaim charges that they made for 'Late Charges' and 'Overlimit Fee' entries on my account between 2003 and 2006. 32 entries, starting at £20 each time, increasing to £25 each time then down to £12 following the OFT report in April 2006 - https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/284445/oft842.pdf

 

I have previously made similar claims for charges against other companies and have gone to court when they have told me to 'go away' when asking nicely. I've not had a failure yet, feel free to look at my other threads :-) Part of my POC states "I do not accept that the Office of Fair Trading report of April 2006 deemed £12 to be an acceptable charge, as it clearly did not. Many of the charges being claimed exceed this amount. " :-)

 

I am at that asking nicely stage and will be sending a letter to Citi to request that they refund the charges they made, totalling £730, with interest. I fully expect them to say 'no, go away', but I have to be seen to be taking the correct steps. If/when they say 'no', or if they do not answer within the time limit they will be given then a letter before action will be sent and if they still refuse then I'm happy to go to court.

 

£730 plus interest: the interest would be at their own rate of 31.80%, as they applied to the credit card account. This is currently just over £10,000 using a copy of CISheet v101 :!: Obviously, this is not going to be resolved overnight so I've created this thread to keep track of progress, and so that others looking to do similar can see that it can be done, you just have to persevere and let them know that you are prepared to stand up to them.

  • 3 weeks later...

Citi have sent a standard letter 'sorry you have had to complain... dealing with it... 8 weeks...'

 

I fully expect that they will refuse point blank and not even make a token gesture.

Thank you for the timely reminder :-)

 

In my letter, dated Dec 20th, I stated quite clearly that they had 14 days, after which I would issue a LBA. Allowing for me not posting it until a day or so after writing, and the holiday post, it's about time for that LBA ;-) I've just written it and will post it in the morning.
