    • Read upload Tells you how with even online sites too Dx 
    • You could forward it to yourself but before you click send, take out your personal details. Does that help? Although I run this forum I am not a massive techie either! But we would like to see it and also to understand who is who – dates, et cetera. What you typed above doesn't really give many clues and certainly only contains one date and time and doesn't identify the order in which they were sent to each other.  
    • Hey, How can I put a copy of the email on here and still keep it confidential? I really do want to give you all the info you need but I'm not tech at all.  I've just emailed the mechanic using your quote as a template. I will let you know what the reply is. Thanks so much everyone

    • Thank you. We like to see also the exchange between you and the mechanic/garage telling about the gearbox. Also, send an email to the garage whose mechanic called you:   Get this email to them as soon as possible. Hopefully it will draw a response which will confirm what they say – but even if it doesn't draw response – as long as there is no denial then it is fine. Even if there is a denial, it won't be too important but it would certainly be nice to get a paper trail which supports what you say. Please send this off and come back here and confirm that you've done it

    • 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.

Hi could anyone give me some advice. Have been reading all the threads and FAQs and really can't find an answer to this!! I want to claim for my bank charges and CC charges simultaniously and was wondering whether I could send one letter with bank and CC numbers on (and one cheque for £10) or if i should send 2 separate letters (with two cheques)...

 

Seems I will be sending them both to Trinty Road (Sarah Briggs...) so feels abit crazy to send 2 but if that ness then so be it!

 

Thanks lots - this site is fantastic and think I might have about a grand to claim so shall def donate :)

As far as I'm aware you should treat the accounts as unconnected and issue two letters. Halifax will likely be as awkward as possible so if you don't they'll probably use the dodgy argument of 'different companies.'

 

Also, you should set up a parachute account if you haven't already done so. On my CC default letter they say "If the terms and conditions of your account allow, we may also transfer money from any other accounts you have with us to reduce the debt outstanding." Like with the charges, this may not be legal, but that won't stop them and it would be rather inconvenient!

Sorry halidebt you are wrong! as long as both accounts are with the same bank you only need one SAR - (Subject Access Request) letter with both account numbers on and one £10 fee! hope this clears things up?:)

 

I agree, then when you go further towards court, because you have one letter from Halifax you can use it to claim in one action.

Hey all, seems like i have been away a long time.

Have been following other stories with interest but has all been quite straightforward with my accounts til now...

 

Was initially offered poxy payment of about £100 which accepted as part payment. Filed against them with Moneyclaim claiming:

 

£604 charges (both accounts together)

 

£222.66 interest

 

£75.51 in 8% interest

 

 

Have now been sent a letter from Halifax without admission of liability offering £494 in charges and £222.64 in interest, with a paragraph stating

 

"The Halifax does not consider that you are entitled to the further £195.51" that you are claiming. Unless you can provide evidence of this further loss the Halifax will file a defence in respect to this part of the claim"

 

Is this normal??

 

Have only used the spreadsheets from here and am fairly (very!) sure my figures are correct. Am wondering whether I should accept this but am inclined to think that should continue????

 

ANY ADVICE PLEASE!!

Has this happened to anybody else?

 

Thanks all for reading - any opinions gratefully received :eek::eek:

Did you send halifax a copy of your spreadsheet? If you did i would ask them to send you a copy of the charges that they have worked out and look to see how they differ from yours. Stress to them that you will not be withdrawing your claim till you have received the full amount or have received proof that the revised amount is correct.

 

Hope this helps you out, good luck

Could you just clarify things for me...

 

£604 charges (both accounts together)

 

£222.66 interest - is this overdraft interest that was caused solely by those charges? This seems to be very high in relation to the level of charges.

£75.51 in 8% interest
