    • We used to recommend that people accept mediation but our advice is change. The mediation process is unclear. Before you can embark on it you have to agree that you are prepared to enter a compromise – and that means that you agree that you are prepared to give up some of your rights even though you are completely in the right and you are entitled to hundred percent of your money and even though EVRi are simply trying to obstruct you in order to discourage you and also to put others who might want to follow your example off from claiming even though they have a legitimate basis for reimbursement. Mediation is not transparent. In addition to having to sign up that you are prepared to give up some of your rights, you will also have to agree not to reveal any details of the mediation – including the result of the mediation – so that the whole thing is kept secret. This is not open justice. Mediation has nothing to do with justice. The only way of getting justice is to make sure that this matter goes to trial unless EVRi or the other parcel delivery companies put their hands up and accept the responsibility even if they do it is a gesture of goodwill. Going to trial and winning at trial produces a judgement which we can then add to our small collection to assist other people who are in a similar boat. EVRi had been reading you around by the nose since at least January – and probably last year as well – and their whole purpose is simply to drag it out, to place obstacles in your way, to deter other people, and to make you wish that you'd never started the process and that you are prepared to give up your 300 quid. You shouldn't stand for it. You should take control. EVRi would prefer that you went to mediation and if nothing else that is one excellent reason why you should decline mediation and go to court. On mediation form you should sign that you are not prepared to compromise and that you are not prepared to keep the result secret but that you want to share the results with other people in similar circumstances. This means that the mediation won't go ahead. It will take slightly longer and you will have to pay a court fee that you will get that back when you win and you will have much greater satisfaction. Also, once you go the whole process, you will learn even more about bringing a small claim in the County Court so that if this kind of thing happens again you will know what to do and you will go ahead without any hesitation. Finally, if you call EVRi bluff and refuse mediation and go to trial, there is a chance – maybe not a big chance – but there is a chance that they will agree to pay out your claim before trial simply in order to avoid a judgement. Another judgement against them will simply hurt the position even more and they really don't want this. 300 quid plus your costs is peanuts to them. They don't care about it. They will set it off against tax so the taxpayer will make their contribution. It's all about maintaining their business model of not being liable for anything, and limiting or excluding liability contrary to section 57 and section 72 of the consumer rights act.  
    • Nice to hear a positive story about a company on this form for a change. Thank you
    • too true HB, but those two I referred for starters - appear to be self admitted - One to excuse other lockdown law breaking, by claiming his estate away from his consistency and London abode was his main home the other if he claims to have 'not told the truth' in his own words via that quote - to have mislead his investors rather than broken lobbying rules   - seem to be slam dunks - pick which was your law breaking - it seems to be both and much more besides in Jenricks case Starmer was director of public prosecutions yet the tories are using seemingly baseless allegations for propaganda and starmer is missing pressing apparent blatant criminality in politics
    • I am sure the resident experts will give you a comprehensive guide to your rights.  The responsibility lies with the retailer. I have dealt with Cotswold before for similar. And found them refreshingly helpful.   Even when I lost the receipt for one item I had bought in Inverness. The manager in Newcastle called the store. Found the transaction and gave me a full refund.

    • 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.

Dear all,

I wonder if anyone could help me please.

 

I received a letter from Gladstones Solicitors for a parking charge that was apparently dished out last year (16/04/2017).

 

They recently sent a letter before claim but the letter was not even signed and did not include any evidence of their claim, this being the case I just ignored it thinking they were taking the mick.

 

I have now just received a Claim form from the County court business centre.

 

To be fair it looks like a document someone created on their PC and photocopied... again unsigned by a Kirsty Ann Jenkinson.

 

The form is addressed to the keeper of the vehicle who has never visited the site at any time in their entire life.

 

They are claiming that £248.69 is owed.

 

I think this is ridiculous and feel like I should report them to the Police for attempting to gain funds via deception.

 

Is anyone able to offer any assistance please??

 

I'm not sure what I should do and I do not want the keeper of the vehicle to be held liable for a charge that is blatantly undue.

 

As far as I am aware, no contract has been made because the keeper has never visited the place where they claim the parking charge was issued.

 

It says "The driver of the vehicle xxxx xxx incurred the parking charge for breaching the terms of parking on the land. The defendant was driving the vehicle and/or is the Keeper of the vehicle.

 

I'm not sure what to do...

 

I would appreciate any assistance that could be offered.

 

Thank you kindly in advance,

Without naming anyone. Whilst you say that the keeper has never been there, has the vehicle itself been there? Or could this be a case of someone/something at the PPC misreading a registration number?

Please note that my posts are my opinion only and should not be taken as any kind of legal advice.
In fact, they're probably just waffling and can be quite safely and completely ignored as you wish.

Date of Issue 11 June 2018

 

Particulars of claim :

 

 

1.The driver of the vehicle registration XXXX XXX (the 'Vehicle') incurred the parking charge(s) on 16/07/2018 for breaching the terms of parking on the land at Reflections - Old Church road Romford Essex RM7 0BD

Total amount £248.69

 

I believe the claim has been issued by the Private parking company.

Thank you kindly for your assistance!!

 

I would however note that the keeper of the vehicle has never in her whole life attended this address, they have not sent any evidence to show or support their claim and that this was apparently for something that occurred over a year a go and she has no recollection of this.

 

So I should now acknowledge service of the claim as instructed??

 

Kind regards,

If they follow the protocols of the POFA they dont ahve to show that the keepr has done anything other than be respionsible for the car at the time. Now, the chances are they have got thier original paperwork wrong but as you dont ahve it we cant be certain.

 

 

So, yes acknowledge the claim and then you have another 3 weeks to submit a skeleton defence. That could include something about a lack of evidence of a cause for action but you should send Gladdys a CPR 31.14 request for documents now so you can include their lack of response in the defence. The template CPR 31.14 can be found in many threads, just tweak it to name you parking co and ask for their paperwork if it was never received.

I'd be very surprised if anything at the site has changed. PPC's are notoriously slack when it comes to spending money, unless it's for harassing people for money.

It should be illegal, this is what I call obtaining funds via deception, I might go and lodge a complaint with the Police and ask them to be investigated for fraud

 

Alas, it probably won't get you anywhere as the system allows them to do it, in just the same way as you or I could do it. It's swings & roundabouts.

 

 

UKCPM have been spanked a few times in court and they've realised that it costs them an awful lot of money to lose a case. So if they take anyone in to an actual courtroom these days, they are 100% sure of themselves. Even then, they aren't guaranteed a win, UKCPM do tend to get things procedurally wrong, bless 'em. God loves a trier :lol:

 

 

It's much cheaper for them (£25 plus a bit of postage) to issue a claim and hope that it scares you to death and you break your neck falling over yourself trying to throw money at them.

 

If that doesn't work and they aren't absolutely positive that they're going to win (even if they don't), they tend to cut their losses and go on the hunt for the next sucker that will fall for it.

 

 

Replace UKPCM with the name of 99% of any other PPC. It's all the same... A numbers game.

With contracts it all boils down to performance of contract.

You need to read about that and you will see the common example of me selling you London Bridge.

 

I can sell it to you even though I dont own it and if you agree to buy then I can sue you to get you to pay up.

It only goes wrong when you ask me for the deeds and I cant perform my part of the deal.

 

On the stock market most transactions are done without the person selling actually owning the shares, esp on things like futures and short selling.

They rely on taking a profit on a nominal number of shares and then but the ones necessary to fulfil any contract after the price has gne down thus making a profit on the deal without laying out money upfront.

 

Is it a licence to print money?

read up on Nelson Bunker Hunt and cornering the silver market.

 

No illegality involved as there is always an intent to honour the bargain.

that is what the parking co's will say,

they arent crooks because they believe they are right and are just incompetent and thick m'lud
