    • The small claims process is straightforward although it will take a few months. Assuming you win you will get your money back – and of course you have to enforce the judgement. I'm not really clear how it works. Maybe it is already set out on this thread but tell me anyway – who did you pay your money to?

    • A black comedy maybe. I do think it's quite disturbing and imagine his family would be concerned if they knew how he behaved. Some of the mods on here don't help by humouring him and pretending he's a normal, well-balanced individual when he clearly isn't.

    • means they don't care whatever dispute you had with EON, we bought the debt - pay up - tough luck. doesn't work like that lowell!! i'll re read whole thread tomorrow, but from memory this was for a single line supply, with a single meter feeding many building on 'a chicken farm'. Following 'whatever', that business 'folded' and an associated cottage was sold off to you whilst still being supplied via this single existing meter. There was not a separate meter for 'the cottage'. there were some payments made by yourselves.  latterly, a separate was installed to 'the cottage' but EON held you responsible for an owing debt prior to this, when not all consumption was of course not 'just' your cottage. after lots of letter tennis, the debt was sold to Lowell.

    • 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.

I have moved my vehicle to a safe place,

 

I bought it in good faith 2 months ago for 3500 form private seller,

 

spent 1000 pounds on repairs already and now LBL have sent agaents to seize.

 

I have attached there BOS that they have provided me, but they are insisting that it holds up and stated categorically that they will continue to seek their "asset" and also threatened me that they will report it stolen and that i will be handling stolen goods.

 

FYI, i bought the vehicle with full V5 present and had no reason to suspect anything like this.

 

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.:mad2::mad2::mad2:

thread tidied.

 

shame you didn't do a full hpi check...

 

its a must nowadays.

 

was the loan with the previous owner you got the car from?

if not was this through a trader or private sale?

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

You should of done a HPI check.

The vehicle belongs to the log book loan people.

The seller had no right to sell it and the person who you bought it off didn't either.

 

They will get the car back by hook or by crook.

 

You need to sue the person who sold it to you and then that person sues the person who sold it to them.

It happens a lot.

 

If you had done a HPI then if the pi company buggers up with the data then you would of had direct recourse against them.

 

The LBL can and will report it as stolen

the repo agent has zero legal powers they are only a repo firm not bailiffs

keep it on private land pref behind locked gates, better in a garage.

 

so you've spoken to LBL

what are they going to do about chasing the debtor?

 

might pay you to try and findout who has the outstanding LBL and make contact

SOMETIMES they are willing to sort the debt out which resolves your issue.

 

work with LBL not against them and they will help you

Working with the lbl will just end with one question.

Will you settle the outstanding debt to keep the car?

Yes.. Your paying someone's debt off for them

No.. We will report it stolen.

 

Yes dx I right that repo agents have very little powers but if the car is reported stolen, and it technically is, what powers do you think the police have?
