    • If that was the reason then that is good news. The whole reason that being able to charge £100 for breaching private car park rules is because the law Lords decided in a celebrated case that the rogues had a legitimate interest in keeping their car park spaces available for all motorists . {parking Eye v Beavis]. However when the business is closed then there is no legitimate interest in keeping spaces free so to charge £100 is a penalty. As such any Court would automatically throw out the case when the penalty charge is accepted.

    • 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.

Anyone on here that sticks up for or supports any debt collection agency is known as a troll. Many DCA's read these sites and can post very misleading threads.

 

If you are genuine, post more details about your situation and you will get useful advice.

since when was I sticking up for them?? What an insult. I was an amex member for 33 years then they cancelled my card because I missed 3 payments for my min due. I was warning everyone what RMA are capable of then no one is under any illusion they are harmless. You need to retract that statement immediately.

Not retracting anything. If you have read enough of the threads on this site, you will know that RMA/NCO are pretty hopeless. If they got as far as getting a CCJ against you then you didn't do enough research.

 

Anyway, there are various ways you can get a CCJ set aside.

 

If you want to go down that route, let us know and we can try and help.

This is detracting from the original thread. If you want help in getting the CCJ set aside, start your own thread and there will be plenty of people willing to help.

oh I did my research alright.. The only way you can get a CCJ set aside is when you dispute it at the claim form stage. I had no grounds to dispute my debt at all. I had spent all that money and agreed to the interest rate when I took the card out therefore I couldn't set this aside. Just read a letter also in my huge pile of mail this morning stating they are going for a warrant of execution and this will be issued by the court in due course. help what can I do??

You can get a CCJ set aside after it has been issued. I am currently going down that road on behalf of a friend who is too ill to do it himself.

 

If Amex added charges to your account the amount on the CCJ will be wrong. That in itself is grounds to apply to get the CCJ set aside.

 

I need to sleep now but I will look into this further for you and will post more tomorrow

 

 

Friends??

not really.. one way or another I have spent amex's money. I got a lot of nice things. The fact of RMA sending me a CCA doesn't change this. I signed and used the card as per T&C's of the card. I now used to owe £7000 I now owe £10500 was warned by RMA. But my own stupid fault I didn't pay any attention. At the time I just laughed at them down the phone, and told them to only deal in writing. At this point they said they would but through their Solicitors Westminsters.. If only I co-operated with RMA I wouldn't be in this mess.
You may or may not have spent the money but unless RMA were able to produce a properly executed CCA then their attempt to get a CCJ could have been successfully beaten, This is not just CAG advice its the law of the land:)

 

BTW I love your line ' one way or another I have spent Amexes money' Those words seem very familiar.

 

Still if you are happy enough to accept a CCJ without RMA actually having to prove you owe the money and that they had a right to collect it then of course thats your perogative but most other people on here will follow proper advice and make your employers (allegedly) comply with the law

thnaks ODC, but RMA did provide me with a CCA. Plus is was a Charge card so not under the CCA. They still sent me a copy of my application form. I have already sought legal advice and I was told that if RMA get a warrant of execution then there is nothing I can do. The bailiffs can turn up with the police if need be.

Why have you done that, I posted this on a lot of threads as I don't want others making the same mistakes I did. Posted on more than one thread to make sure people see it.

 

Bigwolf,

 

you are currently hi-jacking another users thread, if you have information that you wish to share then please start your own thread

 

let me take this opportunity to point out NCO and RMA are beatable as our successes are testament. it is unfortunate that you have found yourself in a position where you have a CCJ against you but if properly defended at the court stage this would NOT have happened

 

lack of a consumer credit agreement is a valid defence and furthermore the vice chancellor stated in the Court of Appeal that where a creditor fails to ensure they comply with the terms of the CCA, any funds given are done so as a gift as the creditor would know they were NOT entitled to recover the monies

 

Regards

paul

COMPLETE RUBBISH, the bailiffs cannot turn up in the way you quote,

 

Bailiffs do not have any powers to force entry in these situations as its only a civil debt, further more the bailiffs so long as they dont get you to sign a walking possession order they cant do diddlysquat

 

with regards to the charge card this is a different situation though as its not regulated by the CCA

with respect Paul, I am merely trying to make others aware that from my experience and according to my solicitor RMA have followed the correct procedures, and are right to place the CCJ. RMA could be beaten if they hadn';t followed the law. But unfortunatly they have.

Wilson v First County Trust Ltd [2001] EWCA Civ 633 COURT OF APPEAL, CIVIL DIVISION

 

SIR ANDREW MORRITT V-C at paragraph 26

 

In effect, the creditor--by failing to ensure that he obtained a document signed by the debtor which contained all the prescribed

terms--must (in the light of the provisions in ss 65(1) and 127(3) of the 1974 Act) be taken to have made a voluntary disposition, or gift,of the loan moneys to the debtor. The creditor had chosen to part with the moneys in circumstances in which it was never

entitled to have them repaid;

Ah dont get it confused with the House of Lords rulings, not many people are aware of the CoA judgment as it seems to be on the subscription legal databases only, which i have full access to. the CoA case addressed in great detail the CCA and the relevent parts of the act and the regulations under it and its still good case law as much of the HoL rulings centred arpound the Human Rights Act and its compatability with section 127 CCA 74.

 

it is truly an interesting case to read

If this was not under the CCA then how were they able to produce a CCA.:???: :???:

All things are possible in the fantasy world of the DCA, as any fule kno. However, if this tale is to be believed, one wonders why Bigwolf didn't do as I did with Amex and RMA - send a complaint about RMA's lies, and then dispute the charge card debt because of penalty charges and a 'file referral fee' that is in breach of the OFT guidance.
