    • Should this to be take into court with him or should he send something in earlier?
    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.

    • 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.

It's not usual at all! Very strange!

 

I'd be inclined to wait for your statements and progress that as you would normally and ignore this. I can only assume it is a mistake.

 

The worst thing is your charges MIGHT be for less that the settlement but they COULD be for more!

If my post has been useful, tip my scales and let me know

The problem you have is that if this is a mistake, they could in the future ask for their money back.

 

This really is an unconventional scenario and I'm a bit concerned about you just accepting it. Perhaps you should wait to see what one of the mods thinks?

FWIW, if you don't have your statements then you don't know if the figure is right.

 

I have seen this with MBNA and Barclaycard, they tried similar things with me although not start off. What comes to light is the banks think you are only entitled to claim back the last six years.

 

They are wrong or at least they aren't prepared to test it in court and therefore it is more than likely they are wrong.

 

What they do they is try to send out the last six years worth of data or only provide info for that period. if your account is older than six years its almost certain they wont include that.

 

Bottom line is accept if you only want back part of what you're entitled to and aren't worried if they unlawfully deprive you of your money a second time.

 

JMHO

This seems very odd indeed and not the usual response as people have said before me. I would be a bit unsure of signing without working out all the charges owed.

 

Things like this happening confuse me a great deal. On the one hand RBS seem to be taking longer than in the past to even respond to a letter then on the other hand out of nowhere someone gets an offer from and initial letter! Brilliant for you AuntieFi but a bit of a head scratcher for all us still waiting for even an acknowledgement of our first letter! :D

Hi

I wrote to RBS on 12th March requested my statements , on 22nd March i got an offer of £1500 without ever asking for a refund. it was the usual bog standard letter, we dont admit liabiility etc etc etc. i accepted it. But I realise now it was probably a lot more I was owed, and i have never received my statements from them. given i never put in a claim, can i go back and claim the rest? or does the signature form specifiy what you are signing for? given the offer says its not a refund but goodwill gesture, is it worth trying?

sorry if this sounds greedy, just wondered if i have a leg to stand on?

i guess im lucky i got an offer (i guess this was a mistake!) so quickly.

Thanks lots

It looks like they have paid out just to see if you would accept that amount and be happy with it. I would ask for a full S.A.R here to see how much they really do owe you. I suspect it is a lot more..

As you hadn't ACTUALLY made a claim to them in writing

as far as i can see it couldn't be in Full & Final settlement of your claim beacuse you hadn't actually started a claim.

 

Do as UKAviator says and get a SAR request to them and find out how much they do owe.

 

Can you post the contents of their letter to you so we can see their exact wording?

what do you reckon? It says it hopes this resolves my complaint, which i never made.......

 

RBS LETTER

 

Than you for your letter of 12 March 2007. I am sorry that you have concerns regarding the charges that have been applied to your account.

We explain all of our t&s including our feeds and charges at account opening and they form the basis of your agreement with us. Full details are available at any time on our website and in our branches, and updates are sent out regularly tour customer. For your convenience I am enclosing these.

RBS has for a number of years provided many every day banking services to customers free of charge when accounts are in credit of within a previously agreed overdraft limit. These services include access to our branch network, cheques, Direct Debits, Standing Orders, UK debit card transactions and UK ATM withdrawals.

Whilst our services are provided without a corresponding charge, we do make charges when customers, by their actions, request an increase to or the creation o fan overdraft in excess of their previously agreed limit. By reviewing such requests we provide an additional service to customers in many instances allowing items to be paid either by creating or increasing an overdraft. These charges can be avoided entirely by arranging suitable borrowing facilities in advance.

For these reasons, we do not agree with the basis of your complain. We believe that the charges we levy are for providing services and that they are not penalties or charges for default. Furthermore we believe that these charges are fair, reasonable and transparent.

However having reviewed your case and as gesture of goodwill and without admission of liability or error, in this instance we are prepared to offer the amount of **** paid direct to your account. This amount excludes any packaged account fees or interest paid.

To accept this offer in full and final settlement of your complain please let me know by completing the attached form and returning it to us in the reply paid envelope provided. If you would like to discuss this offer please contact the number above.

Any charges that properly accrue in the future will be applied to your account in line with our published tariff and in accordance with your agreement with the bank. Should you be unwilling to accept these, we may need to consider if we are prepared to continue to provide you with your existing banking facilities.

I trust this will resolve your complaint.

FSA guidelines state we can regard your complaint as closed if we do not hear from you within 8 weeks. If you do need to take your complaint forward please let me know within this time.

MY RESPONSE

 

Dear Mr Watt

Account: *

Letter of 22nd March

Thank you for your letter of 22nd March, where a goodwill gesture offer was made for £* and subsequently accepted.

I am a bit confused however, as I am yet to receive my statements as requested in my letter of 12th March or order to calculate the ‘real cost’ of the charges applied to my account over the past years. I would be grateful if a list of all charges, or failing that, all my statements which you have available to you, preferably from the initiation of my account could be sent to me as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely

I would definatley send a SAR request, that way they ahve to send ALL info within 40 days to you, if you just ask for statements they will just delay you and not give you all info

 

You can put your letter initially then continue it with the contents of the template for the SAR letter.

 

Also state that you only accepted this payment as part payment of charges until the full amount is known (they will probaby then take the money straight back then)

 

MAke sure you head your letter

can they take the money back? I thought given it was a goodwill gesture they couldn't?

I have paid off my overdraft and taken my limit to zero so there isn't really much money in there to play with, but what I do have i need for living!

I have sent the initial letter but will sent the SAR with the bit about part settlement.

Has nayone had money taken back off them before?

Thanks

I think you will find that in every case where a payment has been made as a 'goodwill gesture' and the person has accepted it as PART payment they have taken the money back as they offer it as full and final settlement.

 

You will probably get a letter back stating that you accepted this money in full settlement, but we will deal with that when it happens.

 

As you never initiated a claim in the first place how can they offer a settlement for it?

 

Keep us up to date and ask if you have any more queries or problems

hi all

just received my statements from rbs. i requested them in March, they sent me an offer of £1500 without sending statements, i accepted and persued statements.

i have totted up and it comes to c£3k without interest. obviously i have to deduct the £1.5k which ive received already. how do i go about this? im a bit unsure how i deduct the 1.5k already received. I'm going to do my request tomorrow so any ideas gratefully received.

i'm going for CI. is this at 29.84%? thats the rate i can find on their website, any confirmation grateful.

also I'm in Scotland so not sure how this affects my claim. once interest is on its about £7k arrggggghh which is well outwith the Scottish limit.

Thanks
