    • Thank you. Such a good point. They did issue all 3 before I paid though. I only paid one because I didn’t have proof of parking that time, only for two others.    Unfortunately no proof of my appeal as it was just submitted through a form on their website and no copy was sent to me. I only have the reply. I believe I just put something like “we made the honest mistake of using the incorrect parking area on the app” and that’s it. Thanks again for your help. 
    • They are absolute chuckleheads. You paid but because you entered a different car park site also belonging to them they are pursuing you despite them knowing what you had done. It would be very obvious to everyone, including Alliance that your car could not have been in two places at the same time. Thank you for posting the PCN so quickly making it a pity that you appealed since there are so many things wrong with it that you as keeper are not liable to pay the charge. They rarely accept appeals since that would mean they lose money but they have virtually no chance of beating you in Court. Very unlikely that they will take you to Court given the circumstances. Just in case you didn't out yourself as the driver could you please post up your appeal.
    • Jasowter I hope that common sense prevails with Iceland and the whole matter can be successfully ended. I would perhaps not have used a spell checker just to prove the dyslexia 🙂 though it may have made it more difficult to read. I noticed that you haven't uploaded the original PCN .Might not be necessary if the nes from Iceland is good. Otherwise perhaps you could get your son to do it by following the upload instructions so that we can appeal again with the extra ammunition provided by the PCN. Most of them rarely manage to get the wording right which means that you as the keeper are not liable to pay the charge-only the driver is and they do not know the name and address of the driver. So that would put you both in the clear if the PCN is non compliant.
    • Thank you so much. Yes, I wish I had done my research and not paid. It's all for the same car park. Here is one of the original PCNs, they are all the same bar different dates. PCN-22.03.24-1.pdf PCN-22.03.24-2.pdf
    • Hi Clou, Welcome to the Forum and thank you for reading first before you posted. There seems to be many problems with Cornwall and getting a signal to use your a phone which could be why these parking companies don't use alternatives. It is a shame you paid the first one as you would probably have not had to pay that one either.  Was the car park at which you paid the same parking company as the one sending you these PCNs? On the subject of PCNs could you please post them up so we can see if they comply with the Act.

    • 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 don't know if I am posting this in the right place. I hope so. Has any one heard of e music.com. I have just checked my bank statement today and noticed a transaction for this company for £9.99. On further inspection I have discovered they have been taking £9.99 every month for about a year. I had not noticed before now. I have done a google search of this company ad they seem to be a music subscription company. I never signed up to this company. I don't even listen to music so I don't know how they have got my bank card details. I have been on there website and the only contact details they have is a American phone number or a web form you can fill out to email them. I am not too keen to phone America as it will probably cost me a fortune and can't fill in web form as they ask for email address used to register which I don't know as never signed up for this company. What Can I do to stop this company taking more money. I don't particularly want to have to cancel my bank card as I have alot of bills set up and paid with this card and it will be a nightmare having to phone every where. but will if have too. Does any one know any other contact details for this company. Also Is there any Chance I can get my money back. As it totals over £100 which is alot of money. Whats the best way if any to go about getting my money back.

 

Any advice much appreciated

 

Thanks In advance :x

Write to them, Mark it for the attention of the Customer Complaints Manager and send it by recorded signed for delivery

Contact your bank and ask them to block any requests for payment from that company

Sorry to rake up a old thread but I'm still having problems with this company EMUSIC. I have sent so many letters to the address stated above and any other address I have found and haven't had one reply. I have tried emailing them hundreds of times as they have now changed there online contact system but again have had no replies I have phoned the American telephone number and have spent a fortune on phone calls just to be told no one can help me.

I have contacted my bank and have asked them to block payments from this company many times but the company still manages to take money.

 

I have cancelled and changed my bank card twice and still they manage to take money. I just don't understand it and don't know how to stop it.

 

Is there any way to stop it they have now taken over £300.

 

My bank just don't seem to care. I'm with lloyds

 

Any advice would be much appreciated

 

Thanks in advance.

Very odd especially if they have taken money after you changed your card, I would of thought this was impossible, is the money perhaps being taken by a DD instead ?

 

I'd demand that Lloyds take more action, that you have not signed upto anything and that it is fraud, get the police involved if you have to.

 

If you genuinelly have not signed up for this and they have a UK presecence it shouldnt be too hard to reclaim the money via the courts, but I suspect it isnt as simple as this.

It's not impossible as the instruction was given prior to the card being changed. The thing to do is to contact the card provider and ask to stop the continuous payment authority. If no original authority was given then an action to recover the payments via the fraud route should be undertaken.

Hi Teddy

 

Write a Formal Letter of Complaint, mark it as such. Explain what's happened, how they have let you down and what you want them to do.

 

Send it to:

Ms Alison Brittain

Head of Retail Banking

Lloyds Banking Group

[email protected]

 

Provide as much detail as possible, e-mails sent etc.

But how would the company know the number and authorisation needed to charge the new card, would the bank supply them with the new info. or would they continue to pay out using the old card details ?, then what would be the point in stopping an old card in the event of theft or loss if money can continue to be taken from it ?

 

Or does a continuos payment authority overide all of this ? Even then, surely a customer can stop it.

 

Odd

They would continue using the old card. Hence the need for the cancelation of the CPA. Bear in mind that the assumption here is that the authorisation was given in the first place.

Thanks for your replies. I have never signed up to this company. I had never even heard of the company before I saw it on bank statement so I definitely never gave my authorisation for them to take money. I will send a letter of complaint to Allison Brittan as you suggest. To see if she can help stop this. I have copies of all letters and emails I have sent to emusic and lloyds regarding this matter.

Hopefully this should help me with getting my money back.

 

Thanks

Let us know what happens, if Lloyds don't act, then you can lodge a complaint with the FOS, but you need to get a Final answer from Lloyds first.
