Following a review of multiple companies under its supervision, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said it found evidence some firms were offering customers less than what the written-off or stolen vehicle was worth and only increasing that offer when a customer complained.

Hey All, This thread will be for reference more than anything but I've attached a copy of the claim form and defence. This claim was heard at Reading and the judge agreed that the terms weren't abided by and I won the claim. The judge was pretty clear that the contract was not adhered to so it didn't take much convincing to win the claim CF RD2.pdf DFD1.pdf

love the extra £1000 charge for confidentialy there BF Also OP even if they don't offer OOC it doesn't mean your claim isn't good. I had 3 against EVRi that were heard over the last 3 weeks. They sent me emails asking me to discontinue as I wouldn't win. Went infront of a judge and won all 3. Just remember the law is on your side. The judges will be aware of this. Where you can its important to try to point out at the hearing the specific part of the contract they breached. I found this was very helpful and the Judge made reference to it when they gave their judgements and it seemed this was pretty importa

I have added the correct format for the court. Country Court ..... as it was on the letter today, other letter had the justice.... . That is on the unredacted copy sent to admins email. Which Evri judgement, could you give me a steer? Wadhwa one? It's not in dispute, bar that paragraph you picked up. I was looking at that one, and I do agree it's pointless. Thank you for your help.

J, I just numbered them like that; once the witness statement is made, I'll add it to the pages. The court date has been set as 02 July 2024. Please find attached V6. I will send an unredacted to the email. claim budle_V6.pdf

I can see that. In this case, I'd email both that receipt and your tracking label to evri's small claims email and say that is the information you have. They'll figure it out from there I'm sure

Yep

I haven't forgotten about this. I've just done a bit of work on the WS, and will do more late this evening when I knock off work. But two questions spring to mind. Would your "jump leads" friend be prepared to write a short Witness Statement? We could even write it at this end and just ask him/her for a signature. Your inability to move the car is called Frustration of Contract and could be your ace. Secondly, did you tell UKPC about the flat battery when you appealed?

you'll never find a court open on a w/end MB. all courts are closed Good Friday and Bank Holiday Monday. However as Andy points out, that does NOT mean you get 2 extra days to file, you get one, same as xmas/new Year. UKPC have not filed their, so no rush on yours as dave says.

courts will be closed till tuesdsay

And in any case, that's a pretty massive assumption by the OP, and tasteless too

Why not? As long as it does not say in the heading "Without Prejudice" you are free to complain about extra costs which were specifically not allowed in the PE v Beavis case.

The WS is very disappointing coming form a barrister albeit apparently not much experience with PoFA. He of all people should recognise that being parked is not the same as "car broken down". Jopson v Homeguard cleared up what was parking and whilst broken down was not included that was only because the Judge did not exhaust all the possibilities of what defines the word parking.Moreover the OP was leaving well within the time limits until his car wouldn't start. The barrister of all people should know that the amount that can be claimed under PoFA is the amount on the sign. And he should also know that putting an unspecified amo

The contract they have sent isn't valid since it hasn't been signed by VCS and the signature of the Client [if any ] has been redacted. I assume that a valid unredacted contract does exist but that is the one that will need to be produced in court. as AMP is the land owner it will require an authority of some kind from them allowing the Leeds Bradford company to sign on its behalf. They don't appear to know what tailgating is-their definition is a joke. Where you have ANPR cameras in force, a car leaving the car park too close to another means that the camera fails to pick up the vrm of one of the vehicles . This can also occu

Often dismissed out of hand by this stage if they've already decided. No champagne corks yet, though.

Only Good Friday is classed as a holiday with regards to time processing FTM.

I can do some work on it on Friday afternoon. Normally that would mean you could get it to the court by the 4pm deadline. The problem is that Friday is a Bank Holiday and the earliest you will be able to get it to the court is Tuesday.

In that thread you have quoted, the OP hasn't yet heard back from Tfl as to if they are being prosecuted or given an administrative settlement, so it isn't correct to say "the only reason the user received a warning was because of her medical condition", as they haven't yet heard.

which was from the council issued by one of their parking enforcement officers

HELP NEEDED please My sister had a car accident on early Feb and until yesterday There was no update received from her insurance plus KINDERTON provided her the courtesy car and she accepted ,her car was written off .

If you feel that you can make some headway phoning a head office then do so. It doesn't cost you anything. If you are going to do it by phone then make sure you read our customer services guide first and implement the advice there. Otherwise – don't phone. In terms of taking legal action, my own feeling is that this is your only route – but try others if you prefer. If you take legal action then you will have to sue the seller of the vehicle. If it isn't clear to you who sold you the vehicle – and you are the purchaser – then it certainly isn't clear to me. Identify the seller and then you can start taking your legal action. If

The new rules are not retrospective so they only apply to contracts agreed with a CMC after the start date which is apparently 10 July of this year – 2018

In fact the new regulation is even more interesting than the post above suggests. There is a cap of 20% – but in fact the rule is that the CMC's are only allowed to charge "reasonable" fees are not only that they are required to provide a detailed breakdown of the work they have carried out so one can then decide what is reasonable. I'm quite sure that many CMC's will simply charge the – 20% of recovered premiums. If you discover that in fact that they only send one or two letters and did very little else than I would suggest that 20% would normally be very excessive. I think it is now possible to hold CMC's to account and refu

Top US magazine slams Britain after 14 years of Tory ‘psychodrama’ The New Yorker’s excoriating report on the state of the UK lays bare how Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union (EU) “catalysed some of the worst tendencies in British politics”. “The only way to think about it is as a psychodrama enacted, for the most part, by a small group of middle-aged men who went to élite private schools, studied at the University of Oxford, and have been climbing and chucking one another off the ladder of British public life" Top US magazine slams Britain after 14 years of Tory ‘psychodrama’ WWW.INDEPENDENT
