    • Thank you all   JK, I agree; if they were to accept my full claim today, then the interest would be around 8-9 pounds. If I were them, I would have offered to pay the interest and said no to the 12 pounds for the letters. These have not been mentioned, which is my mistake.   As you pointed out, if the judge were to award at 4% and I did not get the letters, I would get less.   Bank, thank you. I do hear what you are saying. If I am to continue with this, then I will need to pay an additional trial fee of £59. If I win everything, then great, but if I win less the claim and court fee, then I lose out. I am not sure what the judge will think about the interest. I think we have to remember that I won the item and, therefore, did not pay a penny for it. Yes, I have had to purchase an additional one, but maybe the judge will hold this against me. I am content that this is a win. I have not signed any non-disclosure clauses, and they do not ask for this either in their offer. 
    • Are you saying that both businesses were closed? Yet you stayed there for over two hours. . If both were closed than to charge £100 is a penalty since Horizon had no legitimate interest in keeping spaces clear for the company. sake as there were no customers..
    • Well you would think that would be the case. Sadly i doubt there is one honest broker within the BPA or IPC and most of their members. they are there to take as much money as they can from motorists regardless of PoFA.   Take the Consideration  period for example. This is a minimum of 5 minutes to allow motorists to find a parking space, read the T&Cs giving them enough time to leave the car park without having to pay if they decide not stay. Simple. Well it would be simple if it were any other company than BPA [or IPC who have now fallen into line with BPA's "reasoning"].  You see if you decide to stay then despite the fact that during the Consideration period when you still weren't classed as parking , once you accept the terms [with all the underhand little tricks designed to trip you up] that five minutes is now included in your parking time. [No not the parking period because the poor dears who ANPR cameras are apparently unable to work out what the exact parking period is since their ever so infallible cameras [yeah right] are incapable of tracking cars once they are in a car park]. After 12 years they still haven't worked out a way of doing it. Some of them fudge and the majority [with a wink fro their ATA [Accredited Trade Association though it should be Discredited Trade Association] just ignore the parking period all together. This is what BPA claim is the Consideration period Entrance grace period: This is for when motorists enter a car park, read the signs and/or attempt to make payment then leave. In these instances, motorists must be offered a reasonable amount of time before an operator takes enforcement action, but we do not define this time, due to the variance in size and layout of car parks. An entrance grace period for a small, permit-only car park could be below 5 minutes, whereas for a large multi-story this could be 15. But  heaven forbid that anyone should leave 6 or 7 minutes after entering  their member's car parks. . They are dutybound to receive a PCN. This is regardless of how busy the car park would be [Christmas eve for example ] .Our minimum is their maximum. Moving on to Grace periods. Again BPA gobble degook. Exit grace period: This must be a minimum of 10 minutes and this is when a motorist intends to stay – for example, if you paid for an hour but spent a total of 1 hour 10 minutes on-site, you will not receive a PCN. It is important to note that the grace period is not a free period of parking however and should not be advertised as such. If that ten minutes in not free parking what is it. their members all think they can send out PCNs for anything after 1 minute after the exact time never mind ten minutes. Our snotty letters have stood the test of time. Do not try to reinvent the wheel -especially with DCBL . They don't even know what a non compliant PCN is for goodness sake! You already know more about PoFA then they do. However if you include that they will find a way to disabuse the Judge of your logic and the law. So don't give them the chance.  I am sure you have the Parking Prankster going on about the rogues misusing the rules on planning permission by lying and stating that they had "retrospective permission". There is no such thing in English law yet Judges were swallowing it until one Judge pulled up Parking Eye about one of their Witness Statements alluding to "rp" by claiming it was "tantamount to perjury".  It wasn't tantamount,it was plain and simple perjury. Parking Prankster: The great private car park planning approval scam PARKING-PRANKSTER.BLOGSPOT.COM Guest blog from shuteyepark, from the Consumer Action group forums In December 2013 my daughter received a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) fro...

    • 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 have a problem with Motormile finance, they have trashed my credit file with a default. They have registered it in June this year without sending out a default notice or any letters. I don't even know what the debt is for.

 

says on Experian £350 account started November 2013. I have no records that show what it is, Experian claim its a pay day loan.

 

Experian are going to contact MMF that I dispute it.

 

Should I SAR them or is there a CPR request that would be more appropriate. My credit file has been looking up recently and this serves a blow to it.

Hi,

 

Don't Subject Access Request MMF, all you will get back is a couple pages of worthless printouts for your Tenner.

You only ever SAR the Original Creditor.

 

Place a notice of correction against the Default.

 

Have you had any letters at all from MMF?

Have had a payday loan in the past?

Have you moved address in the last few years?

NEVER telephone a DCA

If a DCA rings you, refuse to go through the security questions & hang up!

Thanks for the reply. No letters at all from MMF. I did do a couple of PDL's but must of been back in 2009/10. Nothing since as I have been doing really well with finances. I have not moved house for over 11 years.

 

Does a notice of correction actually have any impact on my credit file.

100% no idea who the original creditor or debt is with, in my current position I wouldn't chance a default and a further 6 years of poor credit for £350..

 

 

I have sent them a letter headed complaint today. I am fully prepared to take this all the way......

usual MMF MO then I see...

 

write to them

give them 14 days to removed the default

else you'll complain to the ICO.

 

a debt buyer/DCA cannot default debts.

esp those that they themselves put up or put back up on a creditfile

 

they know the score and have already been fined and had their wings clipped for doing the same to 1000's of people

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...

Thank you Dx, I missed that they had their own thread.

 

Letter sent recorded delivery titled Official complaint, giving 14 days to remove the default.

 

Experian are also contacting them but I doubt they will be up to much.

 

If they don't remove do I need to do a letter before action or just crack on with it?

Ok its been 16 days, no response from motormile from my recorded delivery letter of complaint, i have just sent complaint and evidence to ICO. Can i go on moneyclaim website and start action?

 

The courts will expect you to get a response from the Regulator (ICO) first before starting any legal action. It comes under pre-action protocol

Let it run. It may take time, but the linger MMF dont comply, the higher the chance at compensation.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

So it seems they think they can register new defaults, check this out that I have received by email:

 

 

Dear Mr #######

 

Thank you for your recent communication.

 

We understand your concern to be:

 

1. We have incorrectly entered a default on your credit file on the ##/06/2016 for the amount of £350.00

2. You have never had any dealings with our company and have not received a default notice or any other notice of the outstanding debt.

3. You dispute the registered default notice as this was not applied by the original creditor and demand this to be removed.

 

I shall address each concern, individually, below:

 

Concern 1

 

The account we hold in your name relates to a high cost short term loan which was obtained with Cash Genie. The amount borrowed was £350.00 in November 2013. We purchased this account from Cash Genie in April 2016, the outstanding balance is £350.00. The default has been entered on your credit file as the terms and conditions of the loan have been broken, the amount borrowed has not been paid back within the timeframe agreed with the lender.

 

Concern 2

A Notice of Assignment (NOA) and a goodbye email was sent to you on the 06/05/2016 to the email address #######. This was to advise you that Cash Genie were no longer dealing with the account and it had been sold onto ourselves and we were now the legal owners of the loan.

 

The Notice of Default (NOD) was sent to your home address of ########## on the 15/06/2016. This was to advise you of our intention to register the default on your credit file. We apologise that the default date was reported incorrectly we have now rectified this.

 

Concern 3

MMF are the legal owners of this debt and maintain all rights including reporting an accurate default on your credit file. We are therefore unable to remove the entry from your credit file as it will not show an accurate history on your credit report.

We hope this response has brought the matter to an acceptable resolution and the action taken is to your satisfaction. However, this is our final response, if you remain unhappy with the response I have attached a link to the leaflet about the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). Should you choose to contact them, you will need to do so within six months from the date of this email, enclosing a copy of the final response, which they will need for their investigation.

 

If you would like a copy of this response by post including the leaflet please let me know by return email.

 

FOS Leaflet: http://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/publications/consumer-leaflet.htm

 

Kind Regards,

Complaints Department

Honestly DX I am not sure, I was in financial difficulty back then and did use several payday loans. I have no memory of cash genie but I cannot rule it out. If they had sent a default notice I wouldn't screw up 6 years of history for £350
