    • Try CPR 31.15 Possibly but a party is not compelled to disclose any documents pre allocation
    • Hi, I shown my key worker a letter that was sent to me saying that I owe £1200, she setup a standing order around 2021, this was to pay back money I owed, with my mental health status I have had complex issues to deal with and I just simply forgot about this standing order so it has been running for about 3.5 years acording to my key worker, anyway I'm not worried about the money that was sent that I call a overpayment, it went towards supporting my child's household so I am just happy with that, I am a little sad that I am being told I still owe this £1200, I have sent bank statements over 3 years worth but they have not taken away this £1200 bill and still say I owe it   Thank you
    • She did try contacting EON in the early days of the debt but they refused to speak to her because she could not pass the security checks. She didn't know the answers on an account she hadn't opened?   I also saw this article recently which could be what has happended here: Debt collection agencies in the UK are using fair means or foul to link people to an address where an unpaid debt has been run up, sometimes years after they have moved out The Guardian Anna Tims Mon 22 Apr 2024 The letter from the debt collection agency arrived out of the blue, and it was intimidating. It informed Joshua Simpson* that he owed £2,212 to Octopus Energy, and accused him of ignoring previous requests to settle the bill. If he did not stump up within 14 days, he was told, further action would be taken to recover the money. Simpson checked his Octopus account – it was in credit. Then he noticed the address where the debt had been accrued between 2022 and 2023. It was his childhood home – which his family had sold 18 years previously. "Since I was only 16 when we left the property, I was astonished that they'd linked my name [to it]," he says. "The debt collection agency insisted I provide a tenancy agreement to prove how long I've lived at my current address. I couldn't, since we bought our home. "They are now actively pursuing me for this debt, causing me a huge amount of stress. We are about to remortgage, and if this debt prevents us switching to a better deal, we will face real financial hardship." Simpson had been sucked into the shadowy world of "identity tracing", whereby investigators recruited by creditors seek to locate individuals who have moved home without paying their bills. It is an unregulated sector where anyone can set up as an agent in a back room without a licence, or scrutiny, and use fair means or foul to identify debtors. Reputable companies join a trade association that operates a code of practice, but membership is not mandatory, and mistakes are common. Last year, a teenage boy was chased for a debt of more than £900 by debt collectors acting for the energy company Ovo. A "trace agent" had somehow linked him to the debt because his parents had previously rented the property in question. An investigation by the Observer established that the debt had been run up by a subsequent tenant. The consequences of mistaken identity can be catastrophic. Individuals who are erroneously linked to a debt face, at worst, court action, bailiffs and a ruined credit rating. At best, they can endure weeks of stress and paperwork in order to prove they are not the debtor. It is estimated that 20m identity traces are made in the UK every year, many on behalf of companies that are owed money. Personal data is often obtained from credit reference agencies, which record applications for credit, and details are supposed to be verified with several different sources before being used for debt enforcement. In practice, however, this does not always happen. Simpson's details had been passed along a chain of intermediaries before the demand was issued. Octopus had given the unpaid account to a debt collection agent, which had contracted a tracing service, GBG, to find the debtor................ Full Article: https://www.theguardian.com/money/2023/oct/04/a-cry-for-help-energy-providers-play-the-villain-in-dramas-to-chill-the-blood ..............The Financial Ombudsman Service, which investigates complaints about financial firms, states that debt collection agents have to produce convincing evidence to link an individual to a debt, rather than rely on names, addresses and birth dates. According to the trade association, the Institute of Professional Investigators, an unknown number of investigators and trace agents are operating below the radar. Many more are merely inept, as data protection compliance training is not mandatory. "We have been campaigning for many, many years to try to get all private investigators regulated," says secretary general Glyn Evans.

    • 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.

question for you, HOW is the claimform signed off? It must have a NAME so who has signed it on CEL's behalf.

 

The claim is so vague as to be almost impossible to work out what they are claiming for.

As they use ANPR they cant add costs to the amount stated on the NTK and they are claiming from you in what capacity?

 

These are things to make note of in your short defence, we will help you with putting that together with the failure to create a keeper liability under POFA.

It may be enough to see off the claim by forcing a case management hearing and they wont attend that so game over.

 

So in the meanwhile get soem pictures of the signage popsted up. We need to see the entrance from the public highway whther there are any signs there or not and pictures of any different signs around the place and of the payment meter if there is one.

when did you send the CPR? the idea of doing this was to get them to show their hand (or not) within the time that you have to submit your defence. By sitting on it for a week you are then cutting it fien to get the response included in your outline defence.

 

 

Anyone reading this thread is warned that when you get a claim form you acknowledge straight away and send the CPR31.14 request immediately or there is little point doing so.

 

 

Now, when they dont answer ( none of them do) you can state that you dont believ that they have the necessary contracts and permissions and how they ahve failed to show locus standi and a cause for action against you.

 

 

In your case you also state that they havent filed a correct claim as there is no sig on it, the claim itself is inadequate as it doesnt say why you owe money, is it for a contractual obligation or a breach of contract and also it doesnt say in what capacity their are claiming from you as there is no keeper liability under the POFA and you werent the driver at the time and they know this.

 

 

Hopefully this gets readbefore the court admin set a date for a hearing because then the judge will order them to show all of this via a case management hearing or order. CEL wont attend or obey and then you can get on with the rest fo yur life.

 

 

 

If the paperwork just gets chucked in a file and isnt read until the night before the hearing then you will be forced to spend more time on this but as CEL is well known for abuse of process and the court system it is likely that you wont actually have to attend a hearing

Ok just to sum things up to save looking back and forth through posts.

 

The event took place 05/04/17

 

date on NTK 03/05/17

 

Date received by us 05/05/17

 

Letter from DVLA confirming that the data was not requested by CEL until 28/04/17

 

we then sent in an appeal to cel

 

24/05/17 letter received to say appeal rejected by CEL and to appeal to POPLA.

 

In the appeal to POPLA my daughter admitted to being the driver

 

POPLA rejected the appeal

 

Then we started to receive demands for payment

 

in July we sent a DPA section 10 request for them to stop processing which was ignored

 

May 18 we received demands from ZZPS followed by QDR Solicitors

 

Then October 2018 we received the court papers

pointless sending a section 10 notice, we didn't and do not ever advise sending that.

 

probably another reason why they though this will be an easy win in court as with naming the driver and sending a section 10 notice, its reasonable for them to assume you aint got a clue what you are doing and didn't research things properly..so might give in wet yourself and pay when a court claim landed.

Once you realised that the NTK was too late you should have stopped corresponding with anyone until you got a lba.

So, who has been issued the court claim, keeper or driver? You may have already said but make it clear and if it is the driver then use that term not my daughter or we.

 

You have to stop saying we as you are not conjoined twins and the 2 people involved have very different liabilities and CEL suing the wrong person will get them nothing but a costs order.

is this ok

 

Case No XXXXXXXX Civil Enforcement Ltd V XXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

1. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of [XXX XXX].

 

2. It is denied that the Claimant has complied with Schedule 4, Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Sch 4. Section 9 (5)) in that it did not arrive within the relevant period (14 days from the day following the parking event). The information was not requested from the DVLA until 28/04/17 23 days after the incident on 05/04/17 (letter from DVLA attached)

 

3. It is denied that the Claimant has complied with Schedule 4, Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Sch 4. Section 9 (2)(e) It does not “invite” the keeper to pay the charge and states that they “require” payment.

 

4. On the 25/07/17 I received a letter stating that the outstanding balance was £100.00 (copy Attached). On the 28/07/17 I wrote to the claimant (copy attached) asking for a copy of their KADOE agreement with the DVLA, a copy of their agreement with the landowner and a copy of their code of conduct in order to ascertain if their claim was correctly/legitimately issued in order that I may make payment and have not received this information, therefore, any costs after this date are wasted costs due to the claimaint.

what I cant se on this thread is a copy of the signage at the site.

As they are saying that there is a breach of contract for overstaying we need to see what was offered to address this point.

 

All of the arguments about the exact wording of the POFA is lost on many judges so something substantial from another direction will be needed to make the whole lot compelling.

 

You have some points to sue such as they have failed to show thye have authority to enter into contracts and to make civil claims, they havent followed the protocols of the POFA so their demand hasnt created any liability as they dont state who the creditor is, lack of planning permission for their equipment, breach od CPR by failure to state who the claimamnt is on the N1 summons.

 

Now despite any of these ebing theoretically enough to cause the claim to fail some judegs will have the mindset that a contractw as entered into and the money is owed regardless of law breaking , we have seen it happen many times before so you need soemthing they understand as well as being right.
