    • Hi welcome to the Forum.  If a PCN is sent out late ie after the 12th day of the alleged offence, the charge cannot then be transferred from the driver to the keeper.T he PCN is deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch so in your case, unless you can prove that Nexus sent the PCN several days after they claim you have very little chance of winning that argument. All is not lost since the majority of PCNs sent out are very poorly worded so that yet again the keeper is not liable to pay the charge, only the driver is now liable. If you post up the PCN, front and back we will be able to confirm whether it is compliant or not. Even if it is ok, there are lots of other reasons why it is not necessary to pay those rogues. 
    • Hi I received a Parking Charge letter to keeper on Monday 15/04/24, the 17th day after the alleged incident. My understanding is that this is outside the window for notifying. The issue date was 08/04/2024 which should have been in good time for it to have arrived within the notice period but in fact it actually arrived at lunchtime on the 15th. Do I have to prove when it arrived  (and if so how can I do that?) or is the onus on them to prove it was delivered in time? All I can find is that delivery is assumed to be on the second working day after issue which would have been Weds 10//04/24 but it was actually delivered 5 days later than that (thank you Royal Mail!). My husband was present when it arrived - is a family member witness considered sufficient proof? 1 Date of the infringement  arr 28/03/24 21:00, dep 29/03/24 01.27 2 Date on the NTK  08/04/2024 (Date of Issue) 3 Date received Monday 15/04/24 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012?  Yes 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No    Have you had a response?  n/a 7 Who is the parking company? GroupNexus 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Petrol Station Roadchef Tibshelf South DE55 5T 'operating in accordance with the BPA's Code of Practice'  
    • lookinforinfo - many thanks for your reply. It would be very interesting to get the letter of discontinuance. The court receptionist said that the county court was in Gloucester 'today' so that makes me think that some days it is in Gloucester and some days its in Cheltenham, it was maybe changed by the courts and i was never informed, who knows if DCBL were or not. My costs were a gallon of petrol and £3.40 for parking. I certainly don't want to end up in court again that's for sure but never say never lol. Its utterly disgusting the way these crooks can legally treat motorists but that's the uk for you. I'm originally from Scotland so it's good that they are not enforceable there but they certainly still try to get money out of you. I have to admit i have lost count of the pcn's i have received in the last 2 yr and 4 months since coming to England for work, most of them stop bothering you on their own eventually, it was just this one that they took it all the way. Like i mentioned in my WS the the likes of Aldi and other companies can get them cancelled but Mcdonalds refused to help me despite me being a very good customer.   brassednecked - many thanks   honeybee - many thanks   nicky boy - many thanks    
    • Huh? This is nothing about paying just for what I use - I currently prefer the averaged monthly payment - else i wouldn't be in credit month after month - which I am comfortable with - else I wold simply request a part refund - which I  would have done if they hadn't reduced my monthly dd after the complaint I raised (handled slowly and rather badly) highlighted the errors in their systems (one of which they do seem to have fixed) Are you not aware DD is always potentially variable? ah well, look it up - but my deal is a supposed to average the payments over a year, and i dont expect them to change payments (up or down) without my informed agreement ESPECIALLY when I'm in credit over winter.   You are happy with your smart meter - jolly for you I dont want one, dont have to have one  - so wont   I have a box that tells me my electricity usage - was free donkeys years ago and shows me everything I need to know just like a smart meter but doesnt need a smart meter,  and i can manually set my charges - so as a side effect - would show me if the charges from the supplier were mismatched. Doesn't tell me if the meters actually calibrated correctly - but neither does your smart meter. That all relies on a label and the competence of the testers - and the competence of any remote fiddling with the settings. You seem happy with that - thats fine. I'm not.

    • 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.

They have offered me a settlement of 6400.

 

I am really finding it hard to decide whether to accept.

 

First off, is there likely to be a second hearing after the one on Feb 5?

 

Second, what I am trying to work out is if I lose, what will I actually owe them? Will it be the CCJ amount or will it be increased costs so more?

 

Also, they said I can't email Restons my WS is this a lie?

This is getting really out of control, I don't know how I got from being able to pay these muppets 2 grand to clear this to now potentially 12 grand...

 

To me my WS feels strong but I'm no barrister or judge lol

Pitfalls of litigation.....they may send a rent a sol or paralegal to keep their costs down and retain profit in your debt to the max...we have no crystal ball at CAG......

 

Given that this is a hearing for Strike out /Summary Judgment and the claim not having been allocated to SCT then costs wont be fixed and CPR 44.2 would probably apply.

 

This settlement has it been offered by way of a tomlin order ? F&FS or monthly pay ? any mention of costs in the tomlin order ?

No - they will only take the full amount via tomlin order monthly payments,

but do not believe my income and expenditure

and I'm not willing to give them my personal bank details/statements etc so this is a no go.

 

They said they would take 6400 upfront payment to settle the account (although now waiting to see if that has since changed)

Share on other sites

Now they are saying I've rejected all offers, the 6400 isnt on the table, and now they want full evidence of ALL my income and exp in order to consider an offer, including - bank statements, pay slips, proof of expenses etc

 

This is impossible and I'm becoming affected mentally and causing me a lot of stress as I thought I could just settle.

They got me, they won :

( I'm really sorry for the anticlimax after all the effort you all have put in for me guys.

 

I've learned an awful lot from this and will keep my monthly contribution going indefinitely to this site as I think more and more people should be aware of it.

 

Also, I am in the tech business myself, if there is anything I can contribute for the forum on this side please let me know.

 

Guys urgent question

- they have now added another £700 in expenses on top of the original WS application form

- can they do this to me?

Really need to know asap.

Wonder if they are going to seek judgment anyway, just a stunt these charlatans would pull; have they submitted an amended WS to the court with the extra £700?

 

You might have been better to have fought them.

You guys should try and spend as much time understanding the psychological support avenues for people like me on this site, as well as trying to get people to defend their cases.

 

Court and legal action is not for everyone, and I simply could not risk a CCJ combined with the stress of probably 1000s more legal costs being claimed on top of what I already owed.

 

I just wanted to put this whole episode of my life to bed.

 

In terms of the settlement, it was £400 more than the amount stated on the WS.

 

They said this was the additional costs incurred during the negotiation period.

 

My question is are they allowed to add amounts on top of the noted costs with the original WS and application for Summary Judgement?

We do fully understand the psychological aspects of dealing with matters as such...and appreciate court is not for everyone and everyone must deal with it in their own way in which they are comfortable and can handle the pressure.

 

Until if a claim actually gets to judgement...then the figure can vary in negotiations to settle...but given the the very limited information of how you actually settled then its difficult to advise.

 

If you did settle by consent (Tomlin Order) then there would be a cost to drafting the schedule and also a cost to file it with the court (draft would be from a standard template) and the court fee £50 so I would expect £100 tops...not £400 variance.

 

I would assume they have recouped their costs for their application for SO/SJ...and possibly requested a refund from the court at the same time...given the permitted time frame to vacate.
