    • Thank-you dx for your feedback. That is the reason I posted my opinion, because I am trying to learn more and this is one of the ways to learn, by posting my opinions and if I am incorrect then being advised of the reasons I am incorrect. I am not sure if you have educated me on the points in my post that would be incorrect. However, you are correct on one point, I shall refrain from posting on any other thread other than my own going forward and if you think my post here is unhelpful, misleading or in any other way inappropriate, then please do feel obliged to delete it but educate me on the reason why. To help my learning process, it would be helpful to know what I got wrong other than it goes against established advice considering the outcome of a recent court case on this topic that seemed to suggest it was dismissed due to an appeal not being made at the first stage. Thank-you.   EDIT:  Just to be clear, I am not intending to go against established advice by suggesting that appeals should ALWAYS be made, just my thoughts on the particular case of paying for parking and entering an incorrect VRN. Should this ever happen to me, I will make an appeal at the first stage to avoid any problems that may occur at a later stage. Although, any individual in a similar position should decide for themselves what they think is an appropriate course of action. Also, I continue to be grateful for any advice you give on my own particular case.  
    • you can have your humble opinion.... You are very new to all this private parking speculative invoice game you have very quickly taken it upon yourself to be all over this forum, now to the extent of moving away from your initial thread with your own issue that you knew little about handling to littering the forum and posting on numerous established and existing threads, where advice has already been given or a conclusion has already resulted, with your theories conclusions and observations which of course are very welcomed. BUT... in some instances, like this one...you dont quite match the advice that the forum and it's members have gathered over a very long consensual period given in a tried and trusted consistent mannered thoughtful approach. one could even call it forum hi-jacking and that is becoming somewhat worrying . dx
    • Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant .... I said DCBL because I was reading a few threads about them discontinuing claims and getting spanked in court! Meant  YOU  Highview !!!  🖕 The more I read this forum and the more I engage with it's incredible users, the more I learn and the more my knowledge expands. If my case gets to court, the Judge will dismiss it after I utter my first sentence, and you DCBL and Highview don't even know why .... OMG! .... So excited to get to court!
    • Yep, I read that and thought about trying to find out what the consideration and grace period is at Riverside but not sure I can. I know they say "You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is"  but I doubt they would disclose it to the public, maybe I should have asked in my CPR 31.14 letter? Yes, I think I can get rid of 5 minutes. I am also going to include a point about BPA CoP: 13.2 The reference to a consideration period in 13.1 shall not apply where a parking event takes place. I think that is Deception .... They giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other! One other point to note, the more I read, the more I study, the more proficient I feel I am becoming in this area. Make no mistake DBCL if you are reading this, when I win in court, if I have the grounds to make any claims against you, such as breach of GDPR, I shall be doing so.

    • 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.

The only advice is to keep ignoring. They wont and cant do anything. A court judgement years ago stopped them in their tracks. Now, all they can do is send begging letters and hope you cave in.

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..

Hi,

last week I went to Waitrose,

bought some shopping and did not scan a packet of sushi,

 

Wonder if you can clear something up for me, so you say you didn't scan a packet of sushi, and by your description, I take you went through a self scan till

 

This is my main job, in my work, and I see a lot of bagging alerts that come up, sometimes on purpose, but sometimes down to error

 

So on your part, if going through self scans, was it intentional not to scan the sushi, now if however you had thought you had scanned the sushi, its really up to the self scan host to sort this error out, so I would call that mitigating circumstances

I love the very start,

trying to make their begging letter look like it has some legal weight.

 

If that was actually true they wouldnt need to write without prejudice on it in the first place, they would want it used.

 

Again the last bit is laughable.

recovery agents for undisputed claims.

 

There is no such legal terms so no such comapny to act in that capacity.

 

they may as well write we reserve the right to break the law because you havent told us we cant and we have superpowers anyway

Hi.... I though this ended but it’s still going on....

 

Now I received a letter from Capital Resolve

 

It’s says Settlement offer

 

This is the letter:

 

We have been advised by our client that you have not responded to their previous request to pay the above amount and that your account continues to remain seriously overdue. We have now been appointed to attempt to resolve this matter prior to recommending to our client further action, witch may include recommending that litigation proceedings are commenced again you.

 

We recommend that you seek legal advice immediately if you are unsure about consequences and additional costs that may be added to the amount due if judgement it’s found in our clients favour. Please be aware that this could also affect your future ability to obtain credit.

 

Settlement offer: 112.13

 

Prior to potentially escalating this matter we have received authorisation from our client to accept a reduced figure of £112.13 in full and final settlement of the outstanding balance witch will end your liability and avoid any further action taken against you.

 

If you’re unable to pay the proposed amount, please call us on 01386719130 as we may be may be able to explore other possibilities based on your individual circumstances.

 

We have held your account for a further 7 days until 05 april 2018 however please be aware that no further reminders will be sent. If you do not contact us by this date, we may have no alternative but to continue with further action.

OOH! Capital Resolve. It seems that RLP have managed to find yet another debt collector to work with. I have forgotten how many different debt collectors RLP have used in the past few years mainly due to the fact that they get no joy whatsoever from the enlightened.

 

Many, many debt collectors have worked with RLP so it makes me wonder if when RLP try to pass on a case, most DCA's say 'NO' as (I believe) some of these companies work on a no win no fee basis.

 

Oh yes, Ignore as the others have said.

Hi again! One question... would rpl letters and what happened would came up in a tourist visa application for USA?!

 

Thank you everyone for your help!!! :)

 

WHy would it? RLP are NOTHING to do with UK law. And they NEVER will be. Infact various law enforcement agencies have told them to stop claiming they are associated with them.

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..

Agreed. You should qualify for the visa waiver as you have no convictions to declare. If you had convictions for certain offences then you would have to apply to the US Embassy in London but certainly not for this.

RLP has a subsidiary company called Cireco that carries out 'integrity screening'. Jackie Lambert, the woman who controls RLP and Cireco, used to make much of it, warning people she accused, often sans evidence, of crimes, that (to misquote a famous U-boat captain) 'your name will also go on the list'. La Lambert used to grandly claim that employers used Cireco to check prospective employers. This may be true, but not many employers - according to Companies House records Cireco made less than £7k profit last year. Like so much of La Lambert's output, it's mostly bluff and bullsh*t.

 

Interestingly, Cireco's website does not contain the statutory information required by the Companies Act. It mentions the DPA, but not GDPR, which seems to me surprising for a company that is based upon processing personal data. But then, Cireco doesn't appear in the ICO database. So much for integrity, eh Jackie?

the police and Govt pass on certain "soft" intel so if you are a suspected drugs dealer you will find yourself on the first plane home again as soon as you touch down in the states.

 

What is not on that list is the imaginations of a person running a small private company about the morality of shoppers as no-one is interested, even if it were all provably true.
