    • There's a thread somewhere about someone sending the baillifs against Wizzair that is quite hilarious. I would love to see someone do the same to Ryanair. Question is, should you be the one to take that role. You are entitled to the £220, if your flight was from the UK. If it was TO the UK I suppose it is more of a grey area... though the airlines I know have been using £220 as standard. Not that surprising for Ryanair, the worst cheapskates in the universe, to go for the lower amount, and if you forward this to the CEO he will probably have a jolly good laugh and give his accountants a verbal bonus. After all he's the one who said and I paraphrase "F*** our customers, they'll fly with us again anyway". While we would all love to see Ryanair get wooped in court again, I have to join my fellow posters in thinking it's not worth the hassle for (hypothetically) £7 and not sure it will expedite the payment either. It's already an achievement that you got them to accept to pay.

    • 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.

Good Morning

 

I received a email from Oposlimited debt collector trying to get me to pay £1156 on behalf of Kapama (Minicredit) This is a loan I took out in 2011 - 2012 for the amount of £100. Cut a long story short, i struggled to pay it back but we eventually came to the agreement of paying £150... the original loan amount plus 1 month interest. Anyway.... as I was saying, today they emailed me saying I owe £1156.

Hi

Was this agreement to pay the £150 made in writing or verbally?

 

As it stands, the charges they are attempting to levy are all unenforceable as they do not represent the actual costs involved.

 

'Attempt Charges'! that will never stand. No breakdown, nothing! Default charges, the same

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.

Everything I say is opinion only. If you are unsure on any comment made, you should see a qualified solicitor

Another thing. Were you already in financial difficulties before taking out the loan with mincredit?

 

The reason I ask is that there is a case where the Financial Ombudsman has told Kapama to write off a debt made up of interet and charges after the customer paid off the loan and a bit more to cover interest.

 

Hopefully this link will work

type in Kapama limited and go back to November 2015

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...

They replied to my email today.

 

Good morning Karl,

 

 

 

I can see that you paid £150 on 31/07/2012. At this time we closed the account as disputed and returned it to our client. At no point did we tell you we were accepting £150 as a settlement, the payment was too low to be accepted as a settlement. Therefore, the balance is still outstanding with our client.

 

 

 

Kind regards,

 

Rebecca

I just replied saying that those charges are NOT enforceable and will not stand up in court. I have informed them I have contacted the financial ombudsman.

Morning :)

 

Had a reply from Opos.

 

Good morning,

 

 

The Financial Ombudsman will advise you to go through our complaints procedure first. Please contact one of our trained advisors on 0141 428 3990 to discuss this.

 

 

 

Regards,

 

Rebecca

 

 

Should I advise I would like to keep all communications via email? Also is there some kind of template to use for a reply to this?

 

Cheers

Karl

This is correct. If you haven't raised a formal complaint then the FOS will direct you back to Opos.

 

Write a letter with the heading Formal Complaint so that the hard of understanding know what it is all about.

 

While this is to do with Opos and Kapama, the FOS have other companies where they have upheld a complaint so you could do a search and see if any of them are relevant to your particular circumstances which is also why there are no dedicated template letters. Every situation is unique to you and a template will do you no justice.

 

All you need is a brief rundown of what you believe the issue is and what you would like them to do to resolve it. You can include case references from the FOS if they are similar to yours to help them.

 

You must give them 8 weeks to respond or if they reject your complaint sooner.

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.
