    • 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.

Hi there,

 

I've just seen this on BBC North West and it's shocking.

 

I can advise that if you or anyone reading this has been caught up in it and has paid ANY part of funds via a credit card then contact your credit card company asap!

 

Even if it's just a deposit and the balance by cash or bank transfer,

then you should be entitled to a refund of the WHOLE amount you have lost under section 75!

Providing what you have paid for is between £100 and £30,000 you SHOULD be covered for your losses via a credit card payment.

 

The card company might fob you off and if they do then take this matter up with the FOS (Ombudsman) they will look more into your claim.

If you have any other issues then post here and I will check over the days and weeks and try to answer questions or help if and where I can

 

I really hope this helps, as these [problem]mers one by one need locking up as they make many people life a misery!

 

Hi,

 

I am another victim of Chris at the NWMC..

. He is building a 1275GT for my son's 17th birthday (2nd March 2016).

 

 

.. Despite promises he missed that date as well as a couple of others following...

It came to Xmas and even on Xmas eve morning he told me i'd get it that day and well you can guess what happened..

 

 

. well it's now 4th March and he let me down again after promising it would be ready for my son's 18th birthday,

 

 

1 year past the original handover date...

 

 

I have told him i want the car, in it's current state but he's refused to deliver it to me,

he's also refusing to hand it over until the full balance is paid even though it's not finished!!!

 

 

I'm stuck and so angry and frustrated,

any advice you could share or if i could join you fighting him please let me know...

Not if you have used a credit card. There is normally a 6/7 year limit, but could be extended under special cases. You are well in the basic time limit so contact your card provider asap!

I never invested/purchased anything with this company.

 

I was watching the BBC Northwest news a week or so back and saw this [problem] and the upset and misery it's caused people up there!

I wanted to help.

 

I have had successful section 75 claims before and wanted to pass on my knowledge and help to others and assure them that if they have agreements with this fraudster and his company and the agreements for work was over £100 and under £30,000 then you WILL have a claim for a full refund if any part of the transaction was paid via a credit card (NOT a debit card).

 

This is NO hoax or recovery [problem] but from me a genuine way to try to help anyone that has paid via a credit card to get their money back and possibly interest on top too!!

 

why won't this site let me use the word [problem]!! Hmmm

Fair enough.

 

I've put it out there in regards to folk pushing their card companies for a full refund via section 75.

 

To me it's a no brainer to at least try with both the card companies and then with the FOS (Ombudsman)

 

if the card companies refuse as losing thousands when there is a possible recourse is a path I would try before throwing in the towel to erm

(let me choose my words carefully!Lol) possible negligent actions from the merchant.
