    • A letter of claim can't be served by email as per CPR 6.3 unless you've specifically told them. Also can't give you 7 days to pay, they've got to give at least 14 days. They know this, they're just hoping you wet yourself and cough up. This won't be going anywhere. IGNORE.
    • Good Morning, I received a speeding ticket last December, I had requested further information from the ticket office which they provided, I also sent back the form confirming i was the diver at the time, however, i had overlooked the signature at the bottom of the page, nobody from the ticket office got back in touch to mention this and i was trying to book a course with no luck, I got in touch with them and sent them a screenshot showing them I was unable to book the course, they came came back to me and said we have no documents to say you were the driver (they did they just failed to mention I never signed it) they re sent the form and it was over the 120 days, i had mentioned to them previously that the timeframe was coming up and they would need to extend this. They are now saying they have complied legally and i need to accept the 3 points, I am trying to plead my case and I am tempted to let this go to court and provide the evidence of my constant communication on the matter. has anyone got any experience with this? TIA.
    • Thank you. I'm looking into it at the moment.  Straight away it says last sold in 2007. Thank you every one for all your help. It's much appreciated. 
    • Just on bankfodder's final point above. The Title Register you get online for £3 can't legally be used as proof of ownership for the property. Right now they'll suffice to see if there's an asset there. Should you need to use it in court to say he's trading at that address, you'll need to fill out an OC1 form with HM Land Registry to get an official copy in the post, which costs £7.00. Make sure that you get the Title Register, not the Title Plan! Title Register will tell you who owns the property etc while the Title Plan will tell you the property boundaries etc which isn't relevant in this case.  
    • Received this via email today once again wanting payment within 7 days of the email but the mail is dated from WEEKS ago…   what’s the play after this one? Still ignore?   S6 email .pdf S6 email 2.pdf

    • 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 there,

 

i'm filling in the money claim form on line and i have come to the particulars of claim page. Its asking "does or will your claim include any issues under the human rights act 1998"

 

I have no idea what this is or if it is relevant to my claim - im guessing the answer would be no?

 

sorry for being completely thick if the answer is really obvious!

 

Jane

:rolleyes:

chell1981,

 

You need to start your own thread so that all your story is in one place, and not interfering with someone elses thread. It makes it a lot easier for us all to follow your situation, and to advise and help you if we can.

 

Are you following the step-by-step? If so, how far have you got?

 

Overdraft Protection and Account Fees (presumably for an "Additions" account) are for optional services and are therefore not recoverable. If you didn't agree to them you have cause for a seperate complaint. The 8% statutory interest (details here) is only added when you file your court claim.

No. The account fees are a legitimate charge unless, that is, you didn't agree to them in the first place. It relates to things such as Travel Insurance and the like.

I didn't understand what the question was about for a second. Having gone to the spreadsheet, now I do.

 

I assume that because you are posting on the Barclays section, you are with that bank. The things to look for in your statements are "Paid Referral" and "Unpaid out".

 

The wording in the spreadsheet when you first open it is an example only. You edit the words in the first column with Paid Referral or Unpaid out. When you get to the end of your highlighted list, edit anything below except the totals then you have your figure.

 

If this posting has helped you please click on my scales, top right.

 

Good Luck

You cannot claim back the interest on the overdraft if youre within the agreed limits. Thats just the way it is

Morning All,

 

I am also at the highlighting stage (orange), this is probably a daft question but can someone just confirm that "Paid Referral Fee" (at £25.00) is what i'm actually highlighting? and what Barclays address am i posting to?

 

Many Thanks.

I know it's a million dollar question but i have filled in my moneyclaim form and barclays bas***ds have 14 days to respond i believe. I presume i will then get a court date is that right?, but my question is this...how long do people usually have to wait for the court date?...is there a set time limit or am i looking at Jan/Feb?...or later?...just a rough idea would be fab as i have no idea at the moment

 

Thanks everyone, Jane;)

Hi.....The 'Paid Referral Fee ' has they have craftily named it IS actually a CHARGE! and yes these are the charges you should be highlighting. Also the address you need is: Barclays Bank Plc, Retail Banking Customer Relations, LEICESTER. LE87 2BB. This is the address I sent my demand for payment and I recieved a reply within 2 weeks.

Hi.....Once the money claim application has been sent in, the other side have 14 days to acknowlege reciept and forward a defence.....Then if they do intend to defend the claim a copy of thier defence will be forwarded to you together with an 'Allocation Questionair' which has to be filled in and returned within 14 days together with another fee of £100 if the claim is over £1500. Once this has been sent to the Court the court will then allocate a date for your hearing, obviously the date will depend on how busy your selected court is at the moment. Sometimes weeks sometimes months!

 

Hope this clarifies things a bit better for you?

The £100 is part of the costs you are claimingf from the bank. So yes, you should get this back

Hi Everyone,

 

I've just arrived at this site. I was actually looking for something else but I've been stung by these bank charges and it would give me great pleasure to get my own back in some way.

 

My bank is the Halifax. Could anyone who is dealing with the Halifax let me know how I can join the right user group; or any user group, as I'm finding the site a bit difficult to navigate?

Paid referral fee is certainly one of the charges you can claim for, but there may well be others. Look for any charge of between £25 and £35 that has not been authorised by you.

Hi

 

Am also just at highlighting stage. Woolwich have done something really strange and I was wondering if anyone has had the same response? They have only sent us a photocopied set of sheets with all our charges on and not a complete set of statements. Is it possible for mr to carry on with just this or do I need the statements? Additionally what is the charges document I need to send with this letter will just a copy of all charges cover this?

 

Thanks for your support
