    • Thank you for your reply, DX! I was not under the impression that paying it off would remove it from my file. My file is already trashed so it would make very little difference to any credit score. I am not certain if I can claim compensation for a damaged credit score though. Or for them reporting incorrect information for over 10 years? The original debt has been reported since 2013 as an EE debt even though they had sold it in 2014. It appears to be a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 Section 13 and this all should have come to a head when I paid the £69 in September 2022, or so I thought. The £69 was in addition to the original outstanding balance and not sent to a DCA. Even if I had paid the full balance demanded by the DCA back in 2014 then the £69 would still have been outstanding with EE. If it turns out I have no claim then so be it. Sometimes there's not always a claim if there's blame. The CRA's will not give any reason for not removing it. They simply say it is not their information and refer me to EE. More to the point EE had my updated details since 2022 yet failed to contact me. I have been present on the electoral roll since 2012 so was traceable and I think EE have been negligent in reporting an account as in payment arrangement when in fact it had been sold to a DCA. In my mind what should have happened was the account should have been defaulted before it was closed and sold to the DCA who would then have made a new entry on my credit file with the correct details. However, a further £69 of charges were applied AFTER it was sent to the DCA and it was left open on EE systems. The account was then being reported twice. Once with EE as open with a payment arrangement for the £69 balance which has continued since 2013 and once with the DCA who reported it as defaulted in 2014 and it subsequently dropped off and was written off by the DCA, LOWELL in 2021. I am quite happy for EE to place a closed account on my credit file, marked as satisfied. However, it is clear to me that them reporting an open account with payment arrangement when the balance is £0 and the original debt has been written off is incorrect? Am I wrong?
    • OMG! I Know! .... someone here with a chance to sue Highview for breach of GDPR with a very good chance of winning, I was excited reading it especially after all the work put in by site members and thinking he could hammer them for £££'s and then, the OP disappeared half way through. Although you never know the reason so all I can say is I hope the OP is alive and well regardless. I'd relish the chance to do them for that if they breached my GDPR.

    • 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 think you should tell her that in the circumstances you are preparing to report the matter to the SPCA and also you would like information relating to her VAT status and tax status and that if she refuses to disclose any of this to you that you will be raising this matter with the court as well.

 

I think that you should provide her with a copy of the vets report – if you haven't already done so and tell her that you want her reply within seven days or else you will start the action.

 

Frankly, I don't reckon it's worth bluffing and if she doesn't respond then I would start the action – but that's up to you.

 

You may decide to write the whole thing off and just leave it there.

 

It would be helpful if you could upload the vets report here in PDF format please so that other people can see and also it may assist other people who stumble across this thread if they suddenly find that their thinking of buying one of the remaining two kittens that this woman still has for sale.

 

Actually, it looks to me as if they getting ready to sell up and go - http://www.s1homes.com/Houses-for-sale/2015070906012237.shtml

 

Whoops - I posted conflicting advice to Andy. Heed Andy rather than me on this.

 

In that case - just get a move on and sue without any further notice. If you issue tomorrow, she will be served by Monday.

I see that no 54 Fife Street - Catz is in the cat business as well - pet services apparently - whatever that means.

Grabbed a full archive of the website, including all images. Even compressed, it weighs in at a little over 22Meg so I won't attach it to this thread. If the OP needs a copy, just send me a PM (ask for ~/websites/delightpersians.tar.gz) and we can work out a way of getting it across.

 

I did check with GoogleCache and the Way Back Machine, neither have a worthwhile recent copy stored.

No... you can't eat my brain just yet. I need it a little while longer.

It is the norm for any reputable breeder to organise a period of free insurance when kittens go to new homes - four to six weeks depending on the insurer. A 'breeder' does not have to be a member of any organisation or cat fancy to set this up so if you didn't get it you have definitely been dealing with someone I'd consider a kitten farmer.

 

 

Proper breeders breed to further their own lines and generally this means they are hobbyists and not 'breeding to sell'. This means they assess all kittens born with a view to breeding/showing and then advertise/sell to pet homes those which they don't wish to keep. Kittens are therefore a private sale (second hand if you like) and only have to be as described which gives buyers limited protection under consumer law.

 

 

Now there are certain standards which have become the norm with pedigree breeders and I don't believe your seller even attempts to reach and therefore cannot hide behind the 'hobbyist' label. I'm a breeder, my blood is boiling at someone like this conning kitten buyers. If you feel it would be useful to your case I'm happy to discuss what you should have got in terms of paperwork etc. as this would give a direct comparison to show this person was no hobbyist.

Thank you, this is very helpful.

 

It might be very useful if you would be prepared to post up in a new thread guidance for people who are seeking to buy pets of some kind or another.

 

If you are prepared to do that and also to provide links at various places to official government documents et cetera, we would be pleased to make it a sticky in this forum and also include a reference to it in the next newsletter.

I'm very happy to do so. I didn't go into too much depth at first because I'm very aware I can bore for England on the subject :) It's not a ten minute job so give me a day or two.

I will provide links where appropriate but not to government documents as such things don't exist outside welfare legislation. There is limited control over the breeding of dogs but not cats.
