    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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 have used ipostparcels many times in the past as their local depot is about 10 mins from my house so I can drop off there. No problems up until December!

 

I sold a UPS via ebay and posted the item to the buyer on the 12th December. Thought nothing of it as never had problems before and use them fairly regularly. Buyer emailed me on the 23rd to say not received, and can I investigate. True enough the tracking was showing as "at delivery depot" and had been since the 13th.

 

It was due for delivery on the 13th as was paid for next day delivery and dropped off at their depot on the 12th. I informed ipostparcels on the 23rd of the problem and chased again on the 30th when no reply - got a response asking for a description etc, which I gave and they said they would search the depot. Nothing from them again until the 5th Jan with me chasing them - told they had heard nothing from the depot but would ask for the search again and let me know.

 

Nothing heard from them again and regular emails asking for an update, then asking them for compensation as I am taking their silence as its lost. Nothing. No more contact until 16th Jan - this time asking me for the description again and photos etc before they can pass to claims dept! I replied saying they have had the description previously and the value etc. I didnt take a photo as didnt think it would go missing! No reply since.

 

On the 16th before I had these emails I decided to write a formal letter to the address provided on their website making a complaint about how the whole thing has been handled and again asking for compensation with a warning that while I hope things can be resolved I would take court action if unsatisfied. I enclosed a copy of the sale details to show cost of item lost and description etc and also included th original invoice from themselves showing that I took out their extra insurance to cover the value.

 

As of today I have had nothing - not an email back or return letter acknowledging me. I sent the letter to them recorded so know they got it - singed for on 21st Jan.

 

What can I do to get my money back? I have had to reimburse the buyer for the item lost and now out of pocket by the value of the item lost and the refund! Ipostparcels seem to care not one jot about upholding their end of the bargain and refunding me the money even though I have done everything I should have within the time frame laid out in their T&C's

 

As a side note they have deleted all my many previous orders and consignment history on my account on their website - almost like they have wanted to hide the purchase? Everything I posted with them in the past is gone, searching brings up nothing! I posted loads in December with them - about £600 of goods in total and each and everyone of them has gone from history - wiped! They have also changed the tracking info of the lost parcel to "Delayed"

 

Fed up now - im thinking this may need to go to small claims court...

What records have you been keeping of this? Have you got screenshots, telephone notes? Have you been doing this on the telephone? Have you recorded your calls?

 

Where is this company based? What is the value of the lost item?

 

By the way, just to let you know that having to ensure items with companies with whom you have contracted to deliver it is a con. Contractually speaking it is completely unnecessary.

 

It is a term of the contract that the item will be delivered. It is a term of the contract that it will not be lost. If the item is lost then they are responsible for the cost anyway. Insurance is just an industry con for making you pay the liabilities which they bear anyway.

I have dont have any copies of the messages I have been sedning them as you have to go through a contact form on the website so no sent copies other than a confirmation of a message being sent and a reference number.

 

I did email them on an email address they gave me to send pictures of the items in one of the last mails from them but this email address either ignores me or replies stating the following

 

"If you have a query in regards to Ipost Parcels please visit our website http://www.ipostparcels.com , log into your account and submit a contact us form.

 

One of the Ipost Parcels team will then respond to you.

 

This email has not been actioned."

 

Just going round in circles with them!

 

I have a copy of the letter I posted to them, and proof of it being signed for - I also have all their replies so far

 

There have been no phone calls to them as they do not provide a contact number!

If you have the company's registered address I would stop pussyfooting around and send a 'letter before action' by recorded delivery - but only if you are prepared to take action! You will most probably find they will back peddle furiously should it come to the small claims court - and settle. Of course you would be unlikely to be able to use them again for anything but after they way they have treated you. I doubt if you are much bothered by this.

That is my intention

 

I wrote to them giving them further opportunity to put things right. The letter was sent recorded and they signed for it on the 21st so I know they got it.

 

I plan on sending them LBA on 4th Feb - this will have given them 14 days from receipt of letter to contact me with solution. I dont want to seem that I am rushing to court even though this has been outstanding since 23rd Dec!

 

And I have no intent in using them again - They were my go to guys for courier and have spend £££ with them over the years - no more!

Fed up now - im thinking this may need to go to small claims court...

Hi I sympathise with your problem.

I have worked in the courier, parcel industry for over

25 years. Companies and individuals despatch parcels

Under Conditions of carriage which define limitations of liability. This gives the extent you will be compensated.

It's usually by weight ie £13.00 per kilo.

In a loss situation you submit a claim and it is settled or other circumstances reject the claim.

I would contact the head office in writing explaining,you will be contacting the media and your MP . The small claim court procedure in MHO is a waste of time. As they will quote the contract conditions if carriage. A ex gratia payment is your best bet.

Regards

Cad

Sorry missed you had extra insurance, puts a bit of a different perspective, and continue as I advised.

However you may have case in court now.

Hi, I have a similar problem with ipostparcels. they have lost my parcel and they don't want to give me my money back, even if I have subscribed their insurance in case of lost.... Did you manage to get compensation? If not, may we do a class action against them?
