    • 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 am having this problem with KJK Investments/G Loans.

 

My situation is very similar.

I have been trying, so far without success, to appeal a hefty tax penalty over a pension-backed loan I took out (perhaps naively but in good faith).

 

With these companies now in liquidation and virtually no hope of recovering the rest of my pension, I could face bankruptcy.

 

Would be very keen to get in touch with others who have been victims of this firm.

Ok thanks, I haven't had any correspondence regarding the appeal as yet, I did however have a good talk to FCA, and they say we might have a case against the sip provider Guardian Pension Consultants for lack of due diligence.

ok they did use other sip suppliers. You would of had to get a sip then you would of told them that you wanted the pension invested in KKJ Investments.

 

Have you had any correspondence from Aaron & Partners Solicitors regarding the liquidation of KJK and G-loans.

They first wrote to me in 2012 and it's been an ongoing battle since then. At the moment I'm making a final attempt to appeal the whacking great tax penalty they imposed (which I have no way of paying). Have you been in contact with any other victims of these two firms?

A 64-year-old pensioner who faced a shock £10,000 tax bill because of blunders made by HM Revenue & Customs has won a belated refund following the intervention of The Telegraph.

O thank you, in my case I loan from G-Loans was take out in tax year 2009-2010, first contact made by tax was 2012, as far as I was concerned my tax was up-to-date and didn't know KJK and G-Loans were connected, I was only working P/T so I didn't even pay tax.

Thanks - that's very helpful.

 

 

I'll have to do a bit more research as I don't know exactly how that would affect me.

 

 

My G Loan was taken out in July 2011 and HMRC contacted me in 2012

(I presume you also got the letters from G Loans at around that time, including a barrister's opinion saying the loan was perfectly OK?)

 

 

However, it was only a couple of months ago that HMRC told me the amount of tax I have to pay as a result of the loan.

  • 4 weeks later...

am also in the same situation and facing bankruptcy.

 

The situation is incredulous as Guardian are now chasing me for annual SIPP fees which I cant pay and they are threatening legal action, they will not accept any responsibility for the situation

 

will be interested to hear more about the process of reporting them to the FCA for not completing due diligence.

 

have correspondence and copies of accounts which were monthly management accounts which I requested from KJK as I was getting nervous about their financial situation for the 6 months before they were wound up.

 

They are clearly completely fabricated and may help in any case against them.

 

you may also be surprised to learn that Greg Garratt from G loans has set up another Financial Services company,

 

s much for regulations!

I also had a letter from them for fees,

I asked them for a break down of the fees,

 

I asked for a copy of the agreement which said I had to pay these fees,

I haven't had a reply,

 

I also stated that their lack of due diligence had a part to play.

 

How much tax are you having to pay mine is about £19k

 

Donmac4 have you been or are you on going with an appeal.

I may ask the for the same information.

I know Guardian are being investigated at the moment by the FCA

I am sure they will be keen to hear that they are chasing fees.

 

My bill is about £34k

I was also told that there would be no tax liability,

there is no way I can pay as the loan was used to pay off debts so bankruptcy is the only option.

 

I am going to approach a firm of solicitors to see how we may be able to take further action

I will let you know how I get on.

 

Also considering going to the press in view of the fact that the directors of the companies seem to be living it up on our cash
