    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above
    • In anticipation of lodging my court claim next Weds 1 May (14 days after advising P2G that was my deadline for them to settle my claim) I have completed my first draft POC as below: Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant has failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing a 8 secondhand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80 I look forward to your thoughts and comments guys! As ever, many thanks - G59    
    • Hmm, that's strange how they got my email then.  I assume the below is ok to send to DCBL, Nicky?  Hello, I am writing regarding our ongoing dispute and the upcoming court claim reference xxxxxxxx.

Please refrain from sending any communication or documents via email. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

    • 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 Guys,

 

I am in the exact position as baggies2016! I checked my credit files (experian, equifax and call credit) as I am about to apply for a mortgage and can see a default has been placed on all three dated last month for £150! This will ruin my chances of getting a mortgage and I have no idea what this is for. It states the start date of the account as 2011. I have never had a default before and certainly wouldn't risk one over such a small amount. Reading through forums after googling them I am very worried as it appears that this is common practice for them.

 

Can I ask what you wrote in your letter to them and what I should write to the ICO? Desperately needing some help here :(

 

Cheers,

 

B

Motor mouth are well known for recording defaults when they aquired the accounts and not from the actual default date. Seems they are slipping back into bad habits after the OFT put them on official warning status. With me they recorded a payday loan as defulted from 2008 which they got in 2012 as a Student loan. After the OFT stepped in the default vanished overnight

Seems the OFT told then to go through every single one of their accounts and rectify any default as not a true representation of fact. With me it was recorded as a student loan. It just vanished overnight. Motormouth nearly lost their consumer credit licence the OFT had to step in with the amount of complaints they were getting.

 

You need to find out what this account is that has been sold to motormouth. 99.9999% of the time they are old payday loans

It's showing as Short Term Loan on my credit files so assume it must be. Thinking back the only payday loan I've ever had was a Cash Genie loan when I was at uni, but that was paid off in full and on time. There's absolutely nothing else.

Thanks, sorry I didn't mean to hijack.

 

So for the letter, does this sound right?..

 

To whomever it may concern,

 

I have recently discovered that you have placed a default on my credit file (attach screenshots of default) with Experian, Equifax and Call Credit. I believe this to be in error as I have had no dealings or communication with Motormile Finance, nor any other credit provider from whom you may have obtained data where a default notice has been issued. Given these entries are inaccurate and unlawful, I must request that they are removed in their entirety within 14 days of this letter. Failure to do so will result in a complaint being submitted to the Information Commissioner's Office in addition to my seeking compensation through legal action.

 

Kind regards,

 

B

better..

 

 

You are not a creditor and cannot create a new account on a credit file

where one does not already exist under the name of the original creditor and is already defaulted.

 

 

there is no such entry nor has there ever been by whomever was the original creditor in this instance

So I received this response from MMF a few days ago..

 

"Thank you for your recent communication with reference to your credit file.

 

Having reviewed your account, we can confirm that the information which we have shared on your credit file is correct.

 

We purchased this account from Cash Genie and are therefore the legal owners of this debt. We have tried to contact you prior to the account defaulting, however, our contact attempts were unsuccessful.

 

As no contact was received, we sent a Notice of Default letter to your postal address. Your account was defaulted with the credit reference agencies after we did not receive a response within the timescales stipulated in the letter.

 

We are obligated to report factual information and are therefore unable to remove this record from your credit report.

 

We are sorry that we cannot be of more help."

 

No communication was made what so ever contrary to what is said. So straight to ICO?
