    • Better version attached with the late appeal explained more clearly for the judge. This will sound silly, but I think it would be a good idea to e-mail it to the court and UKPC on Sunday.  It's probably me being daft, but Sunday is still March, and as it's late, sending it in March rather than April will make it sound like it was less late than it really is.  if you get my drift. You can still pop in a paper version on Tuesday if you want. E-mail address for the court: [email protected] And for UKPC: [email protected]   [email protected] Defendant WS.pdf
    • 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.

I need help again guys

 

I received a letter from a DCA advising they have bought an old credit card debt.

I received a Termination notice from the original creditor in December 09

and the account was disputed in 2010 after a CCA request.

 

On receipt of the agreement,

I was advised on here that it was unenforceable.

I stopped making payments over 5 years ago

but not quite 6 ( via a debt management company).

The dispute was never resolved and they eventually stopped harassing me.

 

Could you please advise what I should do now?

Nothing at the moment.

 

 

Keep letters and see how this develops.

 

 

If they start threatening any court claim,

you could send a CCA request,

as this new company might not have a copy and it might take time to get hold of.

We could do with some help from you.

Not vital but something worth spending £10 on.

 

You could do a full subject access request to the ORIGINAL creditor to see what you can dig up. EG PPI, unlawful credit card charges etc.

Apart from opening up possibilities for reclaims, you would also have paperwork that may give you options to add to your defence should the current owner issue court papers.

 

Knowledge is power, so make sure you have more than the current debt owner :D

Can the new owner also send an SAR request and acquire the same information and shouldn't all the relevant information be on the account they have bought?

When debt buyers purchase debts they normally do so in bulk and they normally only get details like name address account number and balance etc.

 

They can request copies of documentation regarding the account. BUT not to the same level as you can regarding a Subject Access Request. (SAR)

 

A SAR is governed by legislation in the Data Protection Act that allows "You" as the "Data Subject" access to all personal information regarding yourself. Heres the thing, the debt buyer cannot request that level of detail. A Debt purchaser cannot do a subject access request.

 

Many claims fail as the DCs cannot get the correct paperwork.

 

One such example of this being helpful is should it go to court and they produce a "reconstructed Credit card agreement" using information they "think" is correct, you may have information provided by the Subject Access Request that proves some of the info provided in the recon is not accurate and therefore unenforceable.

they will only send you what info they hold on you and that is diddly squat. Dont communicate with them in any form as I doubt they have bought the debt otherwise you would have had a proper letter of assignment and you would be told exactly what the debt is and signed off by the company selling it to this dca rather than from the dca

I don't want to mention company names at this stage as I know DCA trolls search these threads for information relating to themselves.

 

I think they may have purchased it because their correspondence outlined the debt and value, they also enclosed a letter from the original creditor advising me that they had sold the debt to them, but not an official letter of assignment.

 

The letter from the OC was unreferenced with no account number.

But maybe you are right, they may be having another pop at it before it expires.

 

They have asked me to ring them and they will help me with repayments,

which I have no intention of doing.

 

I've gone through my bank statements and my last payment to the debt management company was April 2011, so sadly I may not have enough time to stall them.

 

Do you think the OC will have an accurate record of when my payments stopped.

 

The Default fell off my credit file a few months ago.

Another question please:- I also had another RBS credit card that is currently dormant, which expires in January 2017. When I submit an SAR for the resurrected account, will it flag that one up too?

Couple of questions for you:

 

When did you open this account?

Is it showing on any of the CRA files?

 

Noddle and clearscore are free web based sites for access to your CRA files and will show account start date if they are still within 6 yrs of last payment

Hi Martin

 

The account was opened in February 2002.

 

RBS terminated the account in September 2009 and I've disputed it ever since due to unenforceable agreement.

 

It no longer shows on CRA, it dropped off earlier this year.

 

However think I was still paying reduced payments whilst in dispute until April 2011.

 

Many Thanks

You definately need to sar rbs to get the full history on all the accounts you had

Arm yourself with as much info as you can now in case they try a claim before it becomes sb

Can anyone enlighten me please what I'm up against regarding Cabot, i.e. their reputation, competence and roughly how long before they usually issue a claim.

 

Many thanks

every debt buyer is about the same

its pot luck if they do anything

just remember

a DCA IS NOT A BAILIFF

and has

NO SUCH LEGAL POWERS

 

 

all they can do

is the same as you and I

issue a civil court claim.

 

 

and lose against CAG

Thanks dx, I'm doing my homework reading similar posts.

 

I have seen not admitting the debt or making payments for 6 years makes them SB.

 

This cc debt is within 9 months of being SB and I was trying to establish if I could realistically stall them until then.

 

I took this down the Unenforceable route with the original OC until they stopped chasing about 3/4 years ago,

 

could this be considered admitting the debt even though I was legally disputing it?

 

Sorry for being so naive

no lets it run

they are only chasing because SB is prob close or already gone.

 

 

you don't need to send/do anything
