  1. Thanks BA my point was that the Ea companies were probably asking for more, or were the proposed figure from the EA companies? if they were I would be surprised.
  2. Agree BN EA companies wanted higher fee's originally if I remember correctly. ( I am sure I will be corrected if wrong) and any excuse to increase it would be used.
  3. There is where most of the problems lie PT Due diligence it does not happen in a lot of cases
  4. Just remembered something he said was on the invoice. something like if you do not reveal the driver then the reg owner will be held liable.
  5. Thanks EB I do not like posting on behalf of others as it makes it an awkward thread for me, He has not got the receipt for the shopping, but he is one of the most honest people I know, so I believe what he has told me. I have already advised him to complain to the store or head office. What he has told me, He has moved to Devon but still has his house in London he started shopping in Auldi in Devon, but they do not have the same key in reg number as in London. he had returned to London for a quick visit. and assumed it was the same in this Auldi. He made a genuine mistake. and feels it is very harsh for not seeing the machine to key in his reg. He wants to appeal to there better nature, I have put him right on this point. Does he have any reasonable chance when it gets to the Polar stage?
  6. Hi all Looking for some advise with regards to PNC This is on behalf of a friend. He parked in the Auldi car park to do a shop. What he did not do was punch in his reg number. He was there a total of 29 mins (according to PE) He has now received a Notice to Owner, an invoice for £70.00 reduced if paid quickly. He said he is going to appeal. any advise would be gratefully appreciated. Leakie
  7. If you buy your own boiler the you will have no installer warranty if it goes wrong, just the manufacturers warranty. Also if there is a problem with it, in the initial install there would probably be an extra charge to put it right.
  8. Just thought I would just share with you with regards to the DVLA I purchased a car,I was able to Tax online no problem I needed the V5c from the DVLA I was told that it was not registered to me as the previous owner had not sent in there part of the V5c. I had sent in my part but the denied they had received it. The only way I could re register the car was to pay a fee. So it may be down to the DVLA where the fault lie's with any luck the buyer will come clean, but end up with another penalty as well.
  9. The gas engineers are also sales men if you do need a new boiler always get 3 quotations, not estimates. Bg will be the most expensive, If in doubt get a second opinion with regards to the boilers state
  10. I totally understand what you are saying BA, Lillypig has done the correct thing return to sender. many times. If she had opened the letters she would have committed a criminal offence. She now has the hassle of dealing with something that has nothing to do with her. The EA company should research first.they do not and no recourse for the harassment caused. Yes I understand it would make it difficult for the EA companies, but they are being paid to do a job. They have a duty of care to get the correct debtor, not on a belief it may be. I agree it would make thing harder, but I still believe you are innocent until proven guilty. unfortunately the powers to be seem to think different. Hopefully the SD will do the trick, but after your factual post this may not be the case as the EA will not believe it. there must be a better way found.
  11. This is one of the things that I get annoyed about. Third party does the correct thing - not opening mail that is not theirs and send it back. Then have the hassle of the EA and possibly having to do a section 85 to claim goods back. OK the EA is only going to the address supplied, but he/ she could do a simple check of the Electoral register to check. not 100% but more than they do now. If there goods are ceased then they have no recourse from the EA. The EA knows this just to put pressure on the person to pay up, it is totally wrong. If there were penalties for the EA company then may be innocent people may be left alone. because they can do this without fear, we hear this many times, and what bugs me more is that posters on here think it is reasonable for an EA to do this without any research first. Because the rules say so, well may be the creators should think of this before making them. You are innocent until proven guilty, it should be for the EA company to prove!!not the other way around, Unfortunately to many fines etc take the view you are guilty until you prove otherwise. sorry for the rant, BN is correct SD the way to go forward.
  12. UB has given good advise, I had a similar problem, I was charged for 4 months CT notification to council was over looked. I contacted the council and was told to prove the move out date. they would then amend the CT liability.
  13. Totally agree. But I was surprised at how pro active they were in sorting out the claim, It was like we are at fault so we will do every thing we canto sort the mater. was offered a replacement car as well whilst repair was happening Then the assessor, very helpful easiest claim I have had involvement in. As you say Lucky. I wish they would not pass on details to the ambulance chasers, both brokers denied they did, but some one did ?
  14. I have just been to drop my son off to school, Shortly after most of the school run had finished. I witness the Private Parking company which our local council employ, Drive thought filming cars, I can only assume they record then check for infringements later. and send out PNC through the post. Is this legal, I only ask because I member a thread a while ago, which I believe they said it was not . The only difference is it was a static camera fitted to a car on a pole.
  15. The 3rd Party was driving a Mobility car and the broker Mobility Insurers When I spoke to the assessor yesterday he did mention More Than,
  16. Thanks UB I have just gone through a non fault accident. this happened on 30-12-16 Completed today. Cal my broker Octagon. Was asked if I wanted to claim or just notify, ( I did not realise I had the option) I just left it as a notification 3rd Jan my brokers contacted me as I had legal cover, to ask if I needed to use them in case of injury(not needed) 4th Jan I had a call from 3rd party insurers accepting 100% liability. inform that some one would inspect the car 10th Jan and sent details via email, offered a replacement car whilst repairs carried out. Today had a call from inspector, all done via phone call, cr is now category D write off, due to the age of car and the cost for repair. I have agreed a settlement figure, less buy back at auction price, Quite surprised how little the price was. Payment made via internet banking should receive after 3-5 days. The pay out was more than I paid in the first place. I am sure I can get the repair done cheaper. I intended to keep,the car until it conked out. The only thing that I was annoyed about was ambulance chasers had got my details they said insurance companies had to pass on by law ( yes right oh) these companies are responsable for the insurance premiem hikes IMO. over all good experience with total 3rd party claim.

  17. trouble is BA the EA will say it iis the address and not the person to get the amount owed. Proof of the residents should have been enough. This only seems to be the case when it suits the EA. Agree about the notificatio, but if addressed to the OP's daughter then it is not for them to open only forward on.
  18. Tell me about it Bn 6 months for payment from council , any excuse not to pay. To the Op I think you have been hard done by.you offered goods for control to give a breathing space. thing are getting out of hand with some EA;s but not all the bad ones need to be got shot of . this will not happen until things change, if they will be changed, is a different story This is my point in an earlier post. it should not be for the debtor to prove. The EA should do his/her home work first. then no probs. why should a third party do a section 85 when they are an innocent party, being deprived of goods for the sake of some one else's problem.
  19. You will also need to prove that you move out on the date you say, then the council should alter the Lo to suit, this happened to me but I can not prove the date so was lumbered with an extra 4 months CT plus fees.
  20. I agree to a certain extent BN but there is still a need for the people who know how to play thew system as a limited company. running up debts and closing down, happened to me a few times , this is why I am in the position In am in now. but overall agree out dated in the 21st century, it is called control over the peasants.
  21. Hi BA just to pick up on a comment you made to the op. The OP said he tried to offer his gold chain Rolex watch and 2 cars for payment. I am sure this would have been enough to cover the amount owed. If the Op is correct then their was no need to force entry. This would have been to intimidate the Op for cash or bank payment. With regards to the comment about a section 85 you stated about the gold, what is the difference in previous threads regards to cars, yet you condone the EA for doing so, stating Third party can do the section 85, no difference. This is not a personal attack but have put down by other members for querying the same question. but now with the gold have turned full circle. With regards to the Warrant I am still of the opinion the original should be shown to the creditor or a paper copy of be sent, then here can be no arguments over the warrant. ( I mean a proper warrant not one made up by the EA company. Saves a lot of problems if this was the case!!!
  22. He did not say he would not pay the fees he quoted the would pay what was owed for CT to equita and come to an arrangement for the remainder with the EA.
  23. Hi all Panic over I called the DVLA because it was a renewal of road tax, there was a delay as they check for valid MOT etc also because of the bank holidays over the festive period, DD will come out tomorrow. I just do not trust capita they will do anything to extort extra money. Leakie
  24. Getting a bit concerned now, even though I had an email with payment plan DVLA have not taken the DD DD is active, may be this is why people are getting caught out. Happy New year to everyone Leakie
