    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • 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.

Now that Barclays has been found by the information Commissioner to be in breach of their data protection obligations,, there must be many people who have been waiting a very long time for disclosure of their personal data and who are now able to receive it.

 

I suggest that anyone who has not yet received their subject access request disclosure from Barclays should write an abrupt letter to the bank and make it clearthat as they have been in violation of their data protection act duties for some time, that you will wait no longer and that if they do not make the disclosure within seven days you will applied to the court for an order.

 

As usual, only make this threat if you are prepared to carried out. However please understand that this is a 100% winner and that you will recover your costs as well without any problem.

 

If you are one of the many people who have had to endure the strutting arrogance of Barclays bank and their flawed opinion as to their duties under the Data Protection Act which presumably has been fed to the bank by the people who pass for their legal advisers, then you may decide that this is the moment to begin your action and to force the bank now to retreat from a position which to the rest of the world was quite clearly wrong and which one can only imagine might have been adopted by the bank in order to frustrate the legitimate claims of their own customers.

 

This is the industry which is trying to persuade the country that it can be trusted enough to regulate its own affairs!

I sent such a letter off yesterday, and I AM prepared to take it to court. One thing bothers me slightly - what am I taking them to court FOR? Am I seeking a ruling that they are in breach of the Act and MUST handover relevant information?

I received on 2 years information from Barclaycard (for a visa and a mastercard) I know that I had problems in 2003/2004 which they said they could not send me. Do they now have to supply this information. I have held off as I was not sure how to approach for the 2003/2004. Anyone have any advice?

Non disclosure imprisonment threat against RBS Data Controller! pdf_button.png printButton.png emailButton.png

A Consumer Action Group User was today (21/11/06) granted a County Court order in respect of the failure by the Royal Bank of Scotland to comply with his disclosure request under the Data Protection Act.

District judge Forrester, making the order commented that had the claimant been able to supply him with the name of the data controller

at the Royal Bank of Scotland that he would have added a threat of imprisonment for non-compliance.

 

The Royal Bank of Scotland now has until January 2007 to comply with the users subject access request. The District Judge has indicated that if the Bank has not complied with the order by that time that he may make an order for imprisonment of the RBS Data controller.

If "all statements are in the post" why might it take "a few weeks"?

 

If the boot was on the other foot, they would have no hesitation in dragging you into court.

 

What do you imagine their response to "Its in the post but it might take a few weeks" would be?

 

As is oft said on this site, YOU set the timescales, not the banks.

 

Start proceedings immediatley.

 

(A mention to Peter Townsend that the RBS data controller is facing imprisonment due to non-compliance may induce a sufficiently unpleasant sphincta contraction for him to comply)

 

 

What ever you do, Peter, dont go into the greenhouse. :eek:

Hi All - ive just received a letter from Barclaycard acknowledging the position of the OFT re the Microfich argument, although they "reserve their position" in this regard, but as "a gesture of goodwill" they are now going to supply all of my information and I will receive it within 28 days. Unfortunately for them their 40 days expired yesterday so im moving on with an estimated claim and then proceedings.

 

Intersting to see that they are now relenting - anyone else got one of these letters? If not, its from Tracey Burgess, Customer Relationship Manager at their Manchester address.

how about making sure unless they offer you "extra compensation" you make sure the complaint goes to the ombudsman ( costing them money)

they have "played dirty" ........

 

also the matter could be referred to investors in people -----

Are you referring to default removals here? I've just sent off the template to Barclays Bank telling them that I have no recollection of ever receiving a default and would like further information. I've included a £1 postal order. It's been nearly a week and i've heard nothing from them. Any suggestions???? The problem is that they've placed a default on my credit report from 2001. It's satisfied now but apparently wont be removed by the CRA's until November 2007. It's badly affecting my mortgage and lending opportunities. My credit rating was very poor then went up to fair and now for some strange reason it's gone back down to poor.

can anyone help please - I sent my letter before Xmas to Barclays with the £10 fee - they sent a letter back stating that they were under no obligation to present info according to any particualr format therefore my request to assemble charges was turned aside - they have however sent me copy statments which make no sense whatsoever! They are not detailed in anyway so cannot see what is what - is this their way of getting round things? Is this part of the breach? Can someone please advise me! As i have no longer got my statments this is they only way to obtain info on charges.

Hi lisa - I think you'll find the response to this is:

Start your own thread so Mods (and any rockers!) can help you on your specifics

Read the FAQs again, you'll find that they will help - honest!

Have a flick through the successes, they help me loads!

But basically, they will only send you the old statements, have alook for all debits that are for 'Paid Referral' or 'O/D charge' or similar which is for £25 £30 or £35 over the last six years. I'm sure there are more to look for, so have a look through the threads, I know someone has the info you are after - but they are unlikely to answer you here (so start your own thread)

Oh dear. i thought i was alone in this. It seems like Barclays in particular are really fighting this .

 

I wrote to them before Christmas and got an extremely patronising letter back about the supply of information relating to charges they'd put on my account and the supply of statements ( they said they would supply within 40 days). the 40 days have expired and i have sent them a 7 day letter. i'm quite prepared to go to the info commissioner as i think it is disgsuting that they are not even wanting / reluctant to supply statements. surely the ombudsman should be sorting this out .
