    • Do you think I should send the CCA request now then instead of waiting? I really can do without the stress. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you for responding.
    • How was the "receiver" appointed and what is their role? Appointed by the lender under the terms of their security on the loan (sometimes referred to as "LPA Receiver")? Or are they acting for you in insolveny? What's the current role of the agent?
    • Wait for more replies, but that letter to me can be interpreted as a letter before action. Ignoring it can have consequences. The court to impose sanctions for failure in responding to a letter of claim.
    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?
    • so a new powerless B2B debt DCA set up less than a month ago with a 99% success rate... operating on a NWNF basis , but charging £30 to set up your use of them. that's gonna last 5mins.... = SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. a DCA is NOT a BAILIFF and have  ZERO legal powers on ANY debt - no matter WHAT its type. dx

    • 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.

ps, what happened to the 'Riverdance' there?

 

Hi Ford.

I went to price a job up across the road from where the Riverdance was.It was being cut up by then.

I was invited into a flat to look around and had a birds eye view of the Riverdance,pretty close to the Abana shipwreck.

The chap told me had had TV crews in there at times when it first happened.

Became a tourist attraction.Rumour had it that it dumped many Digestive biscuits all over the shoreline,no luxuries like BMW Motorbikes as other wrecks in the last Decade.

Pea Soup wrecks and Lace were salvaged from past wrecks around here though many in the town it is said were prosecuted there had never been so many items made out of Lace around and about.

Absolutely nothing left of it now.

Few of the Shipwrecks are shown here.

And many more shipwrecks here.With some surprises.

The UK Met Office have issued an Amber "Be Prepared" severe weather warning for snow on Sunday 10th Dec as has Met Eireann. These cover Wales and central England, and also more central & eastern counties of Ireland.

A spell of heavy snow is likely over parts of Wales, the Midlands and parts of Northern and Eastern England on Sunday. Road, rail and air travel delays are likely, as well as stranding of vehicles and public transport cancellations. There is a good chance that some rural communities could become cut off.

 

Chief Forecaster's assessment

 

A spell of snow is expected over a central swathe of the UK on Sunday. This snow starts to develop during the early hours of Sunday with the heaviest and most persistent snow then likely during Sunday morning. 10 cm looks likely quite widely within this warning area, with 15-20 cm in places. This warning has been updated to extend it a little further eastwards and pull the northern limit southwards.

More details on the link.

Just cracking on with making a sledge:madgrin: Also just purchased 500 snow shovels i sense a few pounds is to be made.

Be careful out there.:-(

Hi Ford and Snowdragon,i got a little carried away and span a tale about the snow shovels.

However be careful if using one as if not used to a little exercise they can be damaging to your health if frail.

Get a friend to do it for you.

And if you have not got one try to find a piece of plywood it works.

And yes snowdragon create a little mischief,no one will see you.And as a dragon you can soon roar a flame to melt anything in sight.

 

Just putting this link to the weather radar so you can see what is possibly moving into your area.

Storm Dylan Arrives Tonight.

But Winds Should Ease & Becoming Drier To Welcome In New Year.

https://www.netweather.tv/weather-forecasts/news/8651-storm-dylan-arrives-tonight-but-winds-should-ease-becoming-drier-to-welcome-in-new-year

 

UK weather: Storm Dylan to bring 2017 to a wet and windy end .

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/12/30/storm-dylan-bring-2017-wet-windy-end/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

 

Weather warnings | United Kingdom

Chief Forecaster's assessment

Storm Dylan is expected to develop in the east Atlantic on Saturday night then track northeastwards close to Northern Ireland and into Scotland on New Years Eve. This will bring some very strong winds to these areas with gusts of 55-65 mph expected for many parts and a short period of gusts of 70-80 mph for some places.

The winds will ease from the west as the low continues to move northeast, winds easing down in the early afternoon.

Hi Nystagmite.

Just been checking out Plymouth.

Home in Plymouth flooded as Storm Dylan hits the city overnight - updates

Storm Dylan brings heavy rain to the city as New Year's Eve gets off to a troubled start.

And that was after Fridays deluge.Plymouth has had a tough time it seems in the last few days.

Drains were blocked, homes flooded, cars stuck and trees uprooted in the early hours of Friday.

http://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/news/plymouth-news/home-plymouth-flooded-storm-dylan-993093

 

Sunny where i am Blackpool winds 30 at a guess probably more down the road by the coastline.Seas will be rough i expect and treasure hunting on the shoreline.

will begin for myself when calmer conditions arrive.

 

Storm Dylan has lashed parts of Ireland and Wales with howling gales in excess of 70mph and squally rain as it bears down on Scotland and northern England.

 

Forecasters have warned of severe gusts of up to 80mph as the storm brings a wet and windy end to 2017.

Storm Eleanor is on the way.

Storm Eleanor is the fifth named storm to hit the British Isles this winter.

The evening brings some concern, as storm Eleanor arrives as a small but vigorous and deepening depression crossing the country prompting weather warnings later today.

https://www.netweather.tv/weather-forecasts/news/8655-one-eleanor-storm-arriving-later-today

 

Between 18:00 Tue 2nd and 18:00 Wed 3rd

Storm Eleanor to bring very strong winds later Tuesday, continuing overnight and on Wednesday.

The warning has been adjusted to bring the northern boundary southwards, and to combine with the warning previously in force for Wednesday.

Public transport may be disrupted or canceled and some bridges are likely to be closed.

Power cuts and disruption to other services (mobile phones for example) may also occur, while injuries from flying debris are possible.

Combined with a period of high tides, it is likely that some western coastal communities will be affected by large waves

and spray, and again there is a chance that injuries and danger to life could occur from large waves,or beach material being thrown on to seafronts and coastal properties.

 

Chief Forecaster's assessment

A deepening area of low pressure, now named Storm Eleanor, will track east across the centre of the UK.

This will bring gales and severe gales to Northern Ireland and northern England late on Tuesday and overnight, clearing eastern England during Wednesday morning. The strong winds may clip southern Scotland, with continued uncertainty in the northern extent.

Further south, severe gales affect western and southern coasts this evening and overnight, with a very squally feature bringing a short spell of intense rainfall and very strong gusts to some inland localities.

Wednesday daytime sees a very blustery day, with squally gusts accompanying showers in many areas.

Throughout this period, gusts of 60-70 mph are likely along exposed coasts, with the more exposed locations seeing gusts close to 80 mph.

Inland gusts exceeding 60 mph are possible.

Well i am awake.Storm Eleanor woke me up.Think it was the Wheelie Bin hurtling past that did the job.

Got a feeling there is a lot of damage and disruption across the country.

I will check a few reports out as they come in this morning.

I am sure i am not the only one woken early today as this storm hurtles in.

11-30am high tide where i am and a huge 9.38m tide combine that with Eleanor and who knows what may happen.

Well not many storms are hitting our shores at the moment so something a little different.

If this carries on there will be a shortage of Driftwood i am going down to the coastline most days to collect only to find sand and pebbles not a piece of wood for miles.

 

I think people like to read things about the weather so lets crack on.

I check out the weather models most days on Netweather see what people are saying and look at the models.

For weeks now such turmoil in there but interesting to look at and learn a little.

What seems to have caused this is a event called

Sudden Stratospheric Warming.

A little about this and how it may effect us shortly.With video.

 

What is Sudden Stratospheric Warming? The weather phenomenon which means we could be in for a cold snap.

Perhaps a dramatic end to our winter such as has not been seen for a good few years.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/sudden-stratospheric-warming-weather-snow-11992179

 

Just as i was looking for spring arriving this may be delayed perhaps,for a short time anyway.

 

As always with the weather you just never know but models seem to be firming up so no longer can i resist putting this out.

If wrong ,oh well this will be talked about for some time as we seem to be getting surrounded by cold air.

For those that might to see what the latest thoughts are on Netweather a forum discussing the models.

You know something may be brewing when hundreds are watching and reading each post made at times.

Most in the forums are called coldies because many just love a little,no a lot of snow like many who have been starved of such scenes as perhaps climate change develops.

I am no expert but do not go in there if a sudden warming destroys the likelihood of a cold spell when possibilities have brewed up for weeks.The coldies do not take warming lightly when strong signals are all around for cold.

 

First a little more about Sudden Stratospheric Warming which seems to be causing Weather Model Mayhem

https://www.netweather.tv/weather-forecasts/news/8740-sudden-stratospheric-warming-brings-weather-model-mayhem

 

For the latest thoughts and models for those that like to check things out for the latest,here you are.

Model output discussion - Post SSW - Will it turn cold?

Many pages but i have started a few pages from the end you will soon see what is happening.

https://www.netweather.tv/forum/topic/89342-model-output-discussion-post-ssw-will-it-turn-cold/?page=104

 

As always,maybe,possible,might,but something special memorable maybe coming,a beast from the East perhaps.

We will see.

Someone said If Winter Comes,Spring is not far behind,lost for anything else to add so best leave it there for now.

And as always there is nothing like the weather to wind you up,but weather model watching is interesting for sure at the moment

Bye for now.

Latest from here and there on the cold due to hit Britain next week.And maybe lasting beyond that.

Bitter QuickChat –

How severe could next week be?

Sara and John give us their considered advice on just how severe next week’s cold spell could be and some of the possible impacts. Here’s their QuickChat:

https://weathertrending.com/2018/02/20/bitter-quickchat-next-weeks-extreme-cold/

 

I have heard Lake Effect snow mentioned at times here and there so looked it up to check it out and how this happens.

Suppose cold air moving over the North Sea could possibly mean Eastern counties could see this.

Lake Effect Snow.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake-effect_snow

The same effect also occurs over bodies of salt water, when it is termed ocean-effect or bay-effect snow. The effect is enhanced when the moving air mass is uplifted by the orographic influence of higher elevations on the downwind shores. This uplifting can produce narrow but very intense bands of precipitation, which deposit at a rate of many inches of snow each hour, often resulting in a large amount of total snowfall.

 

So where are we with the weather models.

A new thread has been opened on Netweather for those that like to see the dramatic charts unfolding with the comments from the coldies and clued up posters.I have never seen times like this in the Forums and can keep you spellbound for hours sometimes as things unfold.

So for those that like to see what might,may,possibly happen shortly here you are.

Worth keeping one eye on.These as some have said are charts unheard of in the Internet age.

We may,might,perhaps be talking about this in years to come.

I will start near the end a few pages back,pages get written petty fast at time like this.

 

Model output discussion - here comes the beast!

https://www.netweather.tv/forum/topic/89388-model-output-discussion-here-comes-the-beast/?page=24

 

Suppose now there i only one thing to do,dig the Thermals,shovels,salt and wait and see.

Bye for now.As always with the weather do not blame me if things change.

I am only putting down what i am reading,fair excuse i feel

However if they do i may go in hiding for a while.:-(

Bye for now,Spring will arrive,one day.

Hi Ford.

I have been wondering how nature will cope if this cold spell happens.

The Sheep, Lambs,the farmers etc.

Hearing the Birds singing in the mild weather of late,courting each other and perhaps thinking of nesting.

Why i even put some dog fir out so the local Wrens would be able to make a comfy nest.

I have heard a Wren builds 3 nests then invites the local lady Wrens to choose which nest she would like.

Caring thoughtful bird.:-)

Bird Seed added to my list of things to buy.

lambs are born at this time of year because the farmers choose the tupping season and want the lambs to have a spring and summer to grow rather than have them born in autumn and have to feed them in barns because there isnt enough grazing pasture.

Currently the high pressure system isnt going to drop a load of snow on us and the jet strean is too far north to bring in the ex tropical rain to freeze and produce snow. Just keep feeding the wildlife.
