    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.
    • Dear EVRi parcelnet LTD t/a evri   evri parcelnet isnt a thing also you say defendant's response which is a bit of a weird format.   Something like   Dear EVRi, Claim no xxxx In your defence you said you could not access tracking. Please see attached receipt and label Regards

    • 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

 

I wonder if you can help...

 

I have an outstanding debt of £798.22 which was an MBNA CC from 2011 - this has been passed round collection agencies since then and I haven't made any payment or acknowledged the debt till Nov last year.

 

I am currently not working, been on ESA for years and have very little prospect of returning to work.

 

My dad offered to help me clear my debts so I can move into an adapted rented property

 

. I wrote to Restons and offered them 10% of the outstanding debt and explained I had a chronic health condition.

 

They replied a month later rejecting the 10% but asking for supporting documents

 

. I replied on 31/12 sending letters from the hospital and haven't heard anything.

 

Meanwhile other creditors have been accepting 10% full and final settlement offers..

 

my post has just arrived which included a Claimform from Restons -

I'm livid as I had been trying to resolve this.

 

The debt collectors before Reston were dlc who offered me a settlement of £199.56 but sold the debt on

 

Can I appeal?

 

I have tried to call Restons, even with a named case manager, I can't get through

 

I am so so frustrated and upset by this

 

thanks for your help

Why if you were writing to restons did you not get the claim form and defended it?

Do they not know you real address?

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...

I just had a call from Restons,

I had called them before posting here yesterday to ask why they issued a claim

when I was trying to resolve the matter.

 

The lady was very polite she went through my file and said no letter of 31/12,

not heard anything since my 10% offer in Nov.

 

I didn't send it registered post, but equally, I didnt send the first one registered but that got there ok.

 

I asked her if they would accept the 199.56 offer I had made, which was in response to dlc's offer and she said no, because it was in court I had to respond to court and there was nothing they could do.

 

I explained I was on ESA ( I had previously sent them a financial statement from Stepchange) and could only pay £1 a month which since the balance is £920 I wasn't going to live that long!

 

she agreed but wouldn't budge, told me to fill the court paperwork in.

She wanted to know all about my chronic condition,

I asked what was the point in going through it if she wasn't able to help?

 

I had earlier told her I have arthritis in both knees and right hand with very little prospect of returning to work.

 

I said I wanted the original signed agreement and she said had to be in writing and send a pound.

Hi minkie64 ...first off no more phone calls to Pestons...its counterproductive and will only worsen your health.

 

You have 33 days in total if you intend to defend the claim in full.....19 days to acknowledge service (date on the claim form being day 1) and a further 14 days to submit a defence...so int total 33 days.

 

You can register to use MCOL and do all this on line....so disregard the claim pack but retain safely.

 

1.So firstly acknowledge service once you are ready.

2.Send a section 78 request to the claimant for a copy of the agreement (go to the Library for template) follow the instructions

3.Send a CPR 31.14 request to the Solicitor (go to the Library for template) follow the instructions

 

Come back here once all the above is complete or if you are unsure of anything at this stage.

 

Regards

 

Andy

Hi Andy,

 

I promise, no more speaking to them. I just hoped they would accept the offer of £199.56 and it would all be resolved.

 

this is the letter I am about to post, can you please advise if I send to just them? I'm confused

  • 3 weeks later...

hi,

 

I sent the letters to DLC and Restons and I've just got this reply.

 

Please find enclosed a draft letter which purports to come from you but which is unsigned. ( I had typed my name at the bottom of the letter)

 

You will appreciate that we must ensure we are corresponding with the correct person and that anyone requesting information is entitled to receive it.

 

Please ensure that all documentation is signed failing which we will not acknowledge receipt nor provide any response.

 

they signed it!

 

so, by worry is now, I have to file my defence in court next week.

 

Shall I sign the letter and send it back or send this to the court?

 

Help please and thank you

Neither...you simply refer to the claimant in your defence as frustrating your requests to verify the claim and failing to comply with Pre Action Protocol.

something like this:

 

 

POC

1.The claimant claims payment of the overdue balance due from the Defendant(s) under a contract between the Defendant(s) and [original creditor] dated on or about etc etc

2. And assigned to the claimant on etc etc

Defence

1. The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.

2. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have in the past had financial dealings with [original creditor]. I am unaware of what alleged debt the claimant refers to having failed to adequately particularise its claim.

3. Paragraph 2 is denied. I do not recall receiving any Notice of Assignment from either assignor or assignee pursuant to the Law of Property Act 1925.

4. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has declined to provide any evidence of assignment/balance/breach requested by CPR 31. 14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to:

(a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement; and

(b) show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for; and

© show and evidence that a Default Notice was issued pursuant to sec87.1 CCA1974;

© show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim;

 

5. On receipt of this claim I requested by way of a CPR 31.14 request and a section 78 request for copies of any documents referred to within the Claimants particulars to establish what the claim is for. To date they have declined to comply to my section 78 request and remain in default and with regards to my CPR 31.14 request. Therefore the claimant in their none compliance to my requests have frustrated my attempts to clarify their claim and against pre action protocol should be considered when the question of costs arise.

6. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed.

7. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer crediticon Act 1974.

8. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
