    • whitelist - the same with mine....the battery had a mind of its own. i bought it for my Son...he'd shut it down and it would be completely off but the power light would either stay on or flash...also it wouldnt start properly, had cmos errors on boot and other stuff.   i bought it through HP store on ebay ..brand new. after 6 days of receipt i recieced an email from HP asking if i was happy...i returned an email saying no and that i want to send it back as it was faulty (basically the email served as a reminder for me to leave them good feedback lol...not as a geniune enquiry to actually make sure i was happy with as they didnt reolve the issue when i was not) after trying to sort it for a couple of months with HP not replying, not offering a solution etc i finally got passed tech support who confirmed it was faulty. i then had to return it to their factory. this is where its gets beyond worse...waited 3 times for parcelforce to collect - they didnt. in the end HP sent me a label which i had to take to the post office - not good as im disabled with a mobility disability. then they asked for my bank account number to issue the refund. they hardly ever replied to my emails and it took over a month and a half to refund me once they had received the laptop back. no explanation, no progress emails, no updates. i kept emailing them on a daily basis as no one would reply to my emails through the website, forum, internal email addresses and even phoned 3 different departments who basically had no idea what to do or what was going on and did not help...they couldnt even tell me when the refund would be issued, let alone why it hadnt been done already. on the forums theres other customers who've had to wait 6 weeks , 2 months , over 2 months etc...it seems as though HP like to with hold peoples money to earn interest on the money in their account. i spents days phoning and emailing them - even sent a recorded letter. at the begining i phoned citizens advice and they said i am entitled to put back into the same financial position as before i lost the out of pocket expenses ie: compensation for my time and recorded letter sent etc. ive started a martin lewis 'resolver' case with them and basically in a snotty reply they told me im not entitled to compensation which is contradictory to what citizens advice told me. i was just wondering if theres any .gov website or law/legislation that i could reply with and say "no your wrong - please compensate me"
    • LBC is here. Complete with a note showing a phantom payment. What to do next?
    • I suppose it doesn't make a massive amount of difference as Kev has never had the guts to do court - well at least not yet - but to me the number of cards played still needs to be reduced.  Given the OP has already referred to the "very busy and overflowing car park" in the appeal I'd refer to that and tell Kev to go and look up case no.3JD08399.
    • thanks ftmdave again for the help with letter. thanks lookinforinfo for the info, im glad i found this forum as its a great comfort and relief to know ive dont the right thing as i wasnt too sure at first. and good to know what excel are really like.   thanks guys.

    • 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.

Ah well, only two and a half hours to go until I issue proceedings for the DPA breach. I have been up half the night planning what will go in the summons, I will post it back in here later when I work out how to do it.

 

Any views on what I should be claiming for, So far I have phonce call costs, letters, envelopes, postage. I will also claim for the immense distress this has caused, anything else ?

As a lot of your communication has been comp orientated I would also claim for that.

 

Do they not know you have no pc at home and have had to get 2 buses to the internet cafe......where their charges are extortionate ?

ok guys, how does this look ?

 

particulars of claim;

 

I am claiming for damages and distress caused by the defendants non-compliance with their obligations under the data protection act 1988.

On 5th April 2006, I made a request under the data protection act for all details relating to my credit card account with the defendant. Statements of account were received within the 40 day period, although seven statements were not included and cannot be retrieved. The defendants own records indicate that the storage disc is faulty/missing, which is a breach of the seventh and eighth principle of the data protection act 1988.

Whilst the defendant has provided copies of their file notes outside of the 40 day period, these are not in intelligible form and as such breaches the data protection act 1988 part II 7.© (i).

Additionally, since my account was opened with the defendant, they have applied unlawful charges of £558.00. These charges have now been refunded by way of good will, however the defendant has breached the first principle of the data protection act 1988 by using my personal information in a way that is unlawful. Although they have refunded the charges, I have been charged a considerable amount in interest on the account due to the unlawful charges, which has not been refunded.

The defendant has also failed to provide a copy of the credit agreement signed by myself and as such I feel that this makes the debt unenforceable at law.

I have made adequate efforts to allow the defendant to rectify matters within a reasonable amount of time which they chosen not to do. I have incurred damages by way of phone calls, postage materials etc. I have also suffered from stress as a result of the defendant’s actions.

The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from 23rd May 2006 to 7th June 2006 of £0.99 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of 8%.

any thoughts ? 23 minutes to go !

Worz

I used to be a dummy, stuffed full of straw and standing in the field of life. And like the straw-filled dummy I was I accepted my lot in life and carried on, tied to a stake in the miserable field of depression as the elements beat me day and night. But there came a time when the elements had gone too far and the string holding me to the stake fell rotten to the ground. The elements had tried to beat me, but instead had set me free!

I am actually fairly relaxed about the whole thing and quite looking forward to hearing back from their solicitors or whoever. Although MBNA have said they will still be responding to my letter last week I will pretty much disregard it unless they say something astonishing !

 

Here we go !

Well, they have actually refunded the charges. But the way they have been with me is what prompted me to take this action for breaching the DPA.

 

I think it stems back to a problem where I asked them to transfer my balance onto a loan because they upped my interest rate quite dramatically. They refused to do so and in the end I was getting emails from Shane Flynn who was the ceo at the time basically telling me to disappear off the face of the earth. I have been looking at a way to get back at them and I think I have found it.

 

By nature, I am quite articulate (i need to be in my job) so I exect others to be the same. The fact that MBNA are far from articulate and have caused me grief has made it easier for me to make a claim under the DPA.

 

Point to note is that a lot of people, yourself included lickthewallfatboy, were not offered the full amount straight away. They did not even try that with me as I think they knew that I would just go straight back at them for the rest anyway, so the saved themselves the hassle of all that. Not realising that the masterplan to sue them was already at the back of my mind ! :shock:

you are a total inspiration, I have had nothing but grief and as I said in my first post on this board, they turned on my parents. I want to see this lot hung out to dry and exposed for the animals they are.

 

My missus has just got off the phone to them, some woman at their end said (and we have this on tape)

 

'I understand that you cant pay, but look at it from my position, you took 16k of our money and can't pay it back. I would suggest we look at a secured loan on your property'

 

my partner " i'm doing everything I can to pay, but in the meantime, i'm offering you what I can as a goodwill gesture"

 

MBNA 'look, you can't make the minimum payment, that's no good to us, unless you can make the arrears of 300, we can't enen begin to help you'

 

Surreyscouse... screw them and make sure it never goes away.

 

I'm off to Guildford CC, next week to get some forms... i'll start on abbey and then this bunch of merciless financial crack dealers are going to be next.. and i think i'll start by asking for a list of my charges...

 

do you thing I can sting them for what they put my parents through?

 

GOOD LUCK
