    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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 was accused of stealing in primark a week ago and i got caught by the security guard.

Unfortunately i had my ID card with me on that day and my bank card .

He got my name and my date of birth and he asked for my address, but i was so scared that my mom would find out so i gave a wrong address to them.

 

There was no police involved, only the security guard was there and 15 mins they let me go saying that they will send a letter to the address i gave to them to pay a fine for the loss items which they had back

 

Im only 16 years old and i dont want a criminal record at this age for a stupid mistake.

Do you think if the household of the address that i gave open the letter and tell them that its a wrong address , can they find my real address by my name and birth of date?

Im only 16 years old btw ,

 

i cant pay that amount of money and i dont want my parents to find out and not trust me anymore.

It would be great if you give me some advice.

Thanks :sad:

first its not a fine

you cant get fined as the police were not involved.

 

there are 2 things here.

 

I doubt primark will bother to do anything but forward what details they have onto RLP.

you can read about them already here extensively if you wish.

but bottom line is you totally ignore RLP

 

 

now if they will trace your address...

 

I don't think we've seen this done here so you might never get anything.

 

however, and bearing in mind you are underage as such, it might well be better incase anything does happen that you tell your parents about this.

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

Hi and welcome to CAG

 

DX and the imp have spelled out quite clearly our position in regard to RLP. They are reluctant to spend money they don't have to employing a tracing firm to find your real address so that is one reason they won't find you.

 

The other reason is your age. RLP use civil law rather than criminal law meaning that even if they did find your address, they couldn't do anything until you are 18 however since there have been no civil recovery cases since 2012 when a certain company who tried it on (with the encouragement of RLP) lost the case. No other cases since then.

 

IF by chance RLP do trace you, ignore the letters but it may come to you fessing up to your parents and if that happens refer them to CAG and these threads to reassure them that nothing will come of any threats by RLP.

 

For now, try to get on with your life and STOP STEALING. Carrying on will get the attention of the police and makes us on CAG look like fools.

I will not do it again and it was my first time.

 

I have my A level exams coming up in a couple of months and all i can think about is the letters that i will not receive:(

is there a chance of me getting in trouble because i gave a wrong address?

Im very scared and all i can think about is the letters.

I just want it to end .

 

And just a quick question.

Would they pass it to the debt collectors as im under age?

Or is it just RLP?

seriously forget about it.

you lied so what..

the guy you spoke to has no legal powers to do anything.

probably the best thing you did that day was to give a false address to the guy :lol:

 

a debt collector is NOT A BAILIFF and have

ZERO legal powers.

Ill say it slow as i know you are scared.

 

RLP cannot do ANYTHING to you.

 

Police were not involved so they wont have any interest.

 

A debt collector cannot do anything to you.

 

You gave a false address... they will never find you.

 

Take a big breath, get some sleep and relax. The ONLY thing that will happen IF they ever find you ( which they likely wont) is you get a few letters from RLP then maybe from a DCA. These letters are designed to confuse and intimidate you. Just do what everyone else does. Throw them in the bin where they belong.

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..

As you gave a false address, RLP will direct all letters there.

 

You have more important things to do. Don't stress out over this; you are better than that. As mentioned by the others, RLP can do sod all to you and if you consider that RLP have zero power over you and a debt collector has even less power if you can think of a level below zero.

 

It comes across to me that you may be struggling with the thoughts that you will get found out so I do recommend that you visit your GP. Having someone to physically talk to may just help and a GP has to treat what you say in confidence. Talking to your GP may just uncover the reasons why you chose to steal in the first place.

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.
