    • His financial situation isn’t great, and the landlord has made lots of things up. The things he’s put isn’t true at all. My friend did tell the full truth with incoming and outgoing, I helped him fill in his form and he checked bills etc. to make sure it was right. His wage is ok, but not as good as the landlord thinks it is,  and he doesn’t have anything spare. How much are they likely to take from him? Should he send any reply?  the letter just says to take the court letter with him. 
    • Hi welcome to the Forum.  If a PCN is sent out late ie after the 12th day of the alleged offence, the charge cannot then be transferred from the driver to the keeper.T he PCN is deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch so in your case, unless you can prove that Nexus sent the PCN several days after they claim you have very little chance of winning that argument. All is not lost since the majority of PCNs sent out are very poorly worded so that yet again the keeper is not liable to pay the charge, only the driver is now liable. If you post up the PCN, front and back we will be able to confirm whether it is compliant or not. Even if it is ok, there are lots of other reasons why it is not necessary to pay those rogues. 
    • Hi 1 Date of the infringement  arr 28/03/24 21:00, dep 29/03/24 01.27 2 Date on the NTK  08/04/2024 (Date of Issue) 3 Date received Monday 15/04/24 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012?  Yes 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No  7 Who is the parking company? GroupNexus 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Petrol Station Roadchef Tibshelf South DE55 5T 'operating in accordance with the BPA's Code of Practice' I received a Parking Charge letter to keeper on Monday 15/04/24, the 17th day after the alleged incident. My understanding is that this is outside the window for notifying. The issue date was 08/04/2024 which should have been in good time for it to have arrived within the notice period but in fact it actually arrived at lunchtime on the 15th. Do I have to prove when it arrived  (and if so how can I do that?) or is the onus on them to prove it was delivered in time? All I can find is that delivery is assumed to be on the second working day after issue which would have been Weds 10//04/24 but it was actually delivered 5 days later than that (thank you Royal Mail!). My husband was present when it arrived - is a family member witness considered sufficient proof?
    • lookinforinfo - many thanks for your reply. It would be very interesting to get the letter of discontinuance. The court receptionist said that the county court was in Gloucester 'today' so that makes me think that some days it is in Gloucester and some days its in Cheltenham, it was maybe changed by the courts and i was never informed, who knows if DCBL were or not. My costs were a gallon of petrol and £3.40 for parking. I certainly don't want to end up in court again that's for sure but never say never lol. Its utterly disgusting the way these crooks can legally treat motorists but that's the uk for you. I'm originally from Scotland so it's good that they are not enforceable there but they certainly still try to get money out of you. I have to admit i have lost count of the pcn's i have received in the last 2 yr and 4 months since coming to England for work, most of them stop bothering you on their own eventually, it was just this one that they took it all the way. Like i mentioned in my WS the the likes of Aldi and other companies can get them cancelled but Mcdonalds refused to help me despite me being a very good customer.   brassednecked - many thanks   honeybee - many thanks   nicky boy - many thanks

    • 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 all,

 

Im just after some advice….

 

I am currently in a IVA and when it was accepted allowances were made for my car payment to black horse.

 

To cut a long story short, things have changed rapidly and my income has stayed the same, well it’s actually due to go down and my expenditure is going to rise. This means that I can no longer afford the vehicle that the allowance was made for.

 

Im ok with that, My dad is going to gift me an old car to be able to run, and on completing my income and expenditure form, if I get rid of the current PCP vehicle then I can still afford to live etc and afford my payment to my IVA.

 

I have spoke to my IP and they have said that I can terminate the agreement with BH and the negative debt will be passed on to my IVA as it was taken out before the IVA was accepted.

 

(So I get all that)

 

However……

 

I have spoke to BH over the last couple of days and they have told me that I must write a letter Voluntary Surrendering the vehicle, drive it to an auction house and they will pass the liabilities to my IVA.

 

BUT.

 

The figure is massive!

 

I purchased a car on a PCP plan for £31,650.98 with zero deposit

The total I would have to pay would be £38,207.62 (including balloon)

 

My monthly payments are 47 payments of £455.46 followed by a final payment of £16,801.00

 

I have currently been in the agreement for 12 months (again circumstances changed quickly due to no fault of my own) So that is £5465.52 I have paid.

 

My current settlement on the Vehicle is £28,846.49

 

The vehicle is worth currently £24,000ish trade value.

 

They have said I need to Voluntary Surrender the car and my liability is £14093.75 which will be passed on to the IVA.

 

BUT how is this if my settlement is £28,846.49, shouldn’t it be closer to £4846.49?

 

Is this the same as a Voluntary Termination? or is that more expensive/cheaper?

 

Im just a bit stumped how my settlement can be 29k and they get 24k back and still want the remaining settlement including interest when I no longer pay monthly or have the vehicle?

 

I need to get this sorted, as my insurance for the car is due in a week and I do not want to/can afford to insure it.

 

Please advise and thank you in advance

 

Also just to add, as this might change things quite a bit, I received a letter from BH when I did my IVA saying that they intend to terminate my agreement on 27th March 2018 under section 76(1) of the consumer credit act 1974 as I had made a application for a voluntary arrangement.

No they haven't sent me a default notice, as ive been keeping up payments.

 

It was on a PCP so all going well (as many years previous) i have just swapped at the end of the agreement so never had to pay the whole amount.

 

So to me it wasn't 38k but only a monthly charge of 455.

I know this still seems a lot but there is no MOT and its warranted etc and ive had previous HP for 10K costing £200pm and ive had to pay all that out myself so this (and to drive something quite nice) was a good option (at the time)

Right....

 

In the Termination:- Your rights

 

It says, I have the right to end the agreement and return the goods. They will be entitled to half the total amount payable under this agreement that is £19,103.81.

 

So I'm guessing the figure i need to put is £19,103.81 - £4554.60 (already paid) = £14,549.21.

 

However,

 

On a voluntary surrender BH are saying the figure is £14,093.75

 

I really don't get this...... How is a Voluntary Termination better if its going to cost more?

 

Im sorry to be a pain and appear thick, but i really don't get it.

that is very unusual

vs it usually ALL the money outstanding minus what they get at auction for the car.

VT is usually a max of 50% of the signed agreement

 

have you still got the agreement?

 

where are you getting £14,093.75 from

Rang again today and they are saying that I owe half the agreement if I VS and and the same figure if I VT.

 

I asked about my settlement being nearly 29k and if they get 24k at auction I should only owe 5k, they said no that’s not how it works and they will still want payments up to 50% of the total igreement price including interest (38k)

 

Obviously I’m only 1 year into a 4 year agreement so I’m not sure if a VT or VS makes much financial difference the only difference being on my credit rating. (Although I could be wrong)

 

(Approx figures on scenarios below)

 

So they have said I can take the car to local BCA and get a receipt, send a letter/email to VS and say I know the liability is 14k and they will send me the liability for 14k to my IVA people

 

Or

 

Send a letter/email to voluntary terminate with my figure being 14.5k and they will collect the car and no doubt auction it anyway....

 

Unless I’m massively missing something is there that much difference?

 

I’m sorry to appear so thick, all I know is my full figure including interest for the car was 38k. The figure excluding interest is 31k

 

My payments were £455 a month for 47 months (48th month was balloon payment or return the car) and the GFV was £16800

 

I really can't get my head around it!

 

Ive attached a copy of the finance agreement
