    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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 got behind with my TSB credit card payments because I have been off work due to illness.

 

 

I sent TSB a valid sick certificate signed by my doctor.

 

 

They have now sent me a large form which not only has to be filled out by a doctor

but if I sign it will give them access to my medical records.

 

 

I told them that they have a medical certificate and they are insisting I sign the form or face legal action.

 

 

Can they do this?

No, they cant force you to supply proof of medical.

 

 

But by supplying proof of medical, it may stave off legal action.

 

 

They don't want access to your full history,

they just want to know that your current situation is something that will improve.

 

 

A sick certificate may not provide enough proof to satisfy them.

 

 

Obviously, like mm says, they cant force you too,

 

 

but that may just mean they start legal proceedings quicker.

 

 

Up to you.

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Just my 2p worth.

 

I've been on this site for 9 years and site staff for a few years.

 

I have been of sick with a slipped disk for 10 months and had the following

 

1) Capital One

2) Aqua

3) Barclaycard

4) Argos card

 

The very first thing that I choose to do when I knew I was going to be off sick was send a copy of the consultants report to every company. NO that don't have any right to se it, but it's their money and I owed it.

 

EVERY single company reduced my minimum payment to £10 (thats's what I asked for) a month and stopped ALL interest.

 

So you can either be a pratt and stamp your feet and tell them they have no rights whatsoever, or sometimes, give them a chance. I know what I would (DID) do.

 

Offer what you can afford and sent them the proof you are in trouble.

Exactly, while we all hate the banks, sometimes working with them can produce the desired result. Sticking two fingers up at them will just make them take legal or sell it on.

 

I agree more info though. There may be charges to recoup and pay off some of the debt. But again, while that can be done, don't be surprised if they quickly take legal action after that or sell it on quicker.

DX, I would ask that you show the pictures of the flying pigs. I have seen warrants where TSB are the claimants and not just in name, but as a client too. I can assure you that they do take legal action when they want. If they don't want to, then they will sell it on.

There is nothing wrong in giving them a redacted version either. But only a Judge can demand to see it and the they make the decision whether or not it is relevant.

 

 

Medical records are privileged and the debtor can chose not to supply full or even restricted access. If the DWP accept a note from the Dr's then the banks surely can as well. This is just plain wrong, in as much as why do they need to know the full story, let me explain.

 

 

An employer will accept the sick note to pay you SSP, the DWP will accept the note for benefits, PPI will normally except it for the payment of monies due under the insurance agreement, but no where will it state the debtor must give full disclosure.

 

 

The same goes for EA's they cannot demand access to your medical records either, a covering letter from the GP is all that is needed, stating what the illness is and if it is likely to be ongoing.

 

 

Furthermore even a Court of law will accept a Dr's note. Please be aware I am just pointing out the obvious here nothing more....

If I have been of any help, please click on my star and leave a note to let me know, thank you.

Banks are not entitled to any confidential medical info, but some basic info which you agree can be released can be helpful. It depends on the nature of the medical condition and the purpose it serves. A Bank should not be retaining or sharing any medical information. It is purely for confirmation of the current health in relation to ability to handle finances.

 

It is quite possible for example that someone suffering from mental health conditions may be considered incapable of making financial decisions and they could face having their credit account frozen, so no further spending is allowed.

We could do with some help from you.

Exactly, someone off work for mental illness and signed off by a doc, even with a covering letter from their doc doesn't mean that an ea cant enforce, not does it mean that a bank cant still collect. We would ask for proof it affects their ability to manage their daily life and finances or enforcement/collection by the bank etc can continue.

Refuse to give info if you want, but just a sick note most likely wont help you.

Dwp wont enquire further as they don't care whether you can pay a debt or not, they only look at if you can work, and if a doc signs you off, then your off, end of.

Your comments mm blur the lines and pull different sectors under one umbrella which doesn't make sense and nor does it help the op.
