    • Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.  
    • This is simply a scam site.  It's been shown to be a scam in the national press and on national TV. Please fill in the the forum sticky and upload the invoice you've received. In fact what you have is an invoice, not a fine, a private company doesn't have the power to issue fines.

    • Good afternoon, I am writing because I am very frustrated. I received a parking fine from MET Parking Services Ltd , ( Southgate park Stansted CM24 1PY) . We stopped for a quick meal in Mcdonalds and were there fir around 30 mins. We always do this after flights and never received a parking fine before.  Reason: The vehicle left in Southgate car park without payment made for parking and the occupants southgate premises. they took some pictures of us leaving the car. i did not try and appeal it yet as I came across many forums that this is a scam and I should leave it. But I keep getting threatening letters.  Incident happened : 23/10/2023 I did contact Mcdonalds and they said this:  Joylyn (McDonald’s Customer Services) 5 Apr 2024, 12:05 BST Dear Laura, Thank you for contacting McDonald’s Customer Services. I’m sorry to hear that you have received a Parking Charge Notice following your visit to our Stansted restaurant.   We've introduced parking restrictions at some of our restaurants to make sure there are always parking spaces available for customers.   We appreciate that some visits such as birthday parties or large group visits might take longer and the parking restrictions aren't intended to stop this. If you think your stay will exceed the stated maximum parking time then please speak to a manager in advance.   Your number plate is scanned by our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system when you enter our car park, and then again when you leave. If you have overstayed the maximum time allowed, you will not be notified straight away- a Parking Charge Notice will be sent to you via the post.   If you feel that a Parking Charge Notice has been issued in error, please contact our approved contractors who issued the charge in order to appeal the charge. Unfortunately McDonald's are unable to revoke parking tickets- the outcome of the appeal is final and cannot be overturned by McDonald’s.   Many thanks for taking the time to contact McDonald’s Customer Services.   Can someone please help me out and suggest what I should do next?  Thank you

    • 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. Some help and advice needed please.

 

Had a suspended possession order on my house about 2 1/2 years ago. Was paying CMI + £63 and not problem. Missed a months payment, hadnt realised it hadnt gone out then discovered this several months down the line when I was told my mortgage provider GMAC that they had stopped taking the extra £63 when the months payment was missed as this had invalidated my agreement.

 

Been making payments generally with the odd missed payment due to stupidly taking out payday loans to help the debts that I had inherited from my ex husband as he had subsequently died. Been trying to sort everything over the last 6 months and done everything wrong and paid my non priority debts over my mortgage as they had turned up on my doorstep and at work. I now know I shouldnt have done this.

 

Last Thursday received a notice of eviction for 18th September out of the blue, no warning from GMAC / Paratus. Although I havent paid the last 6 months I have still paid £2190 of the £2880 due since December '11. My arrears stand at £3700 equivalent to about 10 months.(probably less than 10 months as some were accrued when my payments were £700+).

 

I can easily afford the mortgage now that I have sorted the other debts and with a decent amount surplus each month to reduce the arrears.

 

I also have a buyer which GMAC know about but I am waiting for them to sell their property before I can go ahead which will cover the whole of the mortgage outstanding. I am also due a lump sum to soon possible end of september, might be October of around £1400.

 

I have 2 children, one who is due to take their GCSE's in the coming months so really dont want to disrupt them.

 

Is their any chance I can save my house?

 

I would really appreciate some help.

When you say you haven't paid the last 6 months ??? do you mean the mortgage payment or the arrears payment?

 

Just out of interest - who turned up at your work regarding a debt?

OK, firstly do you have any documentary evidence to support the offer on the house

 

Secondly - you will need to enter an N244 at court to get a hearing to stop the eviction - we can help you with that and you will have to attend the hearing.

 

What reason are you going to give the court for not making payments for the last 6 months?

 

You will need to enclose a budget sheet to the N244 so the judge can see how you will make payments going forward (until the house sells). I have affixed the one we normally use in these cases (it calculates automatically as you fill it in). Let me know when you have done that and how much you have left over each month to pay towards the arrears. We can then move on to the N244 application.

I dont have any documentary evidence. Its verbal. I cant instruct solicitors until The buyer is in a position to move forward.

 

As for the last 6 months. I can only tell the truth, Ive wrongly paid non-priority debts. Ive realised my error which has brought me to this position and I need to put it right. Will the judge accept this?

 

I'll complete the budget form now.

 

Many thanks for your help.

We can word the statement for your N244 to reflect that you were pressurised by your unsecured creditors to pay them instead of your mortgage. I'm sure if you can make reasonable payments towards the arrears you will be ok.

OK, can you can afford to pay £330 extra? - it seems a lot, are you sure you have accounted for everything? If you'd like me to look over your budget sheet you can email it to me at [email protected] (there's no space between the c and o, the website just shows it like that for some reason). Let me know if you have emailed it so I can look out for it.

It still hasn't come through.... can you try again?

 

Meanwhile I will try and draft a statement for the N244 - do you have access to a printer? when would you be able to take the form to the court?

Excellent - I'll draft up the statment and post on here this afternoon - I can also affix an N244 if you haven't got one, together with instructions for completing.

 

Still haven't received the email with the budget sheet - could you scan and post on this thread (taking out your name and any other references). I can als

Hi, affixed is the statement to go with the N244 you need to fill in the information where there are XXX's at the top of the statement (the information will be on the eviction warrant) - read it through carefully to make sure all the info is correct and to fill in the amount you are offering towards the arrears where it shows £XXX in the statement.

 

When you print it out the printer needs to be set for A4 paper (not Letter size) so it all fits on one page. Write the claim number on the top left hand corner of the Budget Sheet and Appendix 1 on the top right hand corner

 

These are the instructions for completing the N244

1.Your name

2. Tick Defendant

3. Cancellation of eviction

4. No

5. Tick at a hearing

6. 15 minutes

Agreed by all parties: No

7. Write - Not applicable

8. District

9. Both Parties

10. Tick box for attached witness statement

Cross out all options except The Applicant Believes

Sign and cross out all options except Applicant

11. Sign and cross out all options except Applicant. Enter your address and contact details.

 

 

Now assemble as follows:

 

N244 - signed

Statement - Signed

Budget Sheet - Appendix 1

 

This forms the pack to take to court. Make sure it is stapled securely together. Before handing in to court take a copy of it all for yourself to refer to in the hearing. When you hand it in to the court you will need to pay a fee of £40 and it will have to be in cash (take the eviction warrant with you). They should be able to give you a date for the hearing while you are there – also ask them if they have any duty legal reps who will be there on the day of your hearing – if you approach them about your case when you get there on the day they can accompany you into the hearing and speak on your behalf.

 

I won't be on line between 4.30 and 10pm tonight but will check in when I get back

You should be able to get a hearing before Tuesday and I'm sure it will be OK. I've just realised I forgot to include in the statment that you have two dependent children. I have amended and affixed here - hope you see it and are able to print off.
