    • Northmonk forget what I said about your Notice to Hirer being the best I have seen . Though it  still may be  it is not good enough to comply with PoFA. Before looking at the NTH, we can look at the original Notice to Keeper. That is not compliant. First the period of parking as sated on their PCN is not actually the period of parking but a misstatement  since it is only the arrival and departure times of your vehicle. The parking period  is exactly that -ie the time youwere actually parked in a parking spot.  If you have to drive around to find a place to park the act of driving means that you couldn't have been parked at the same time. Likewise when you left the parking place and drove to the exit that could not be describes as parking either. So the first fail is  failing to specify the parking period. Section9 [2][a] In S9[2][f] the Act states  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Your PCN fails to mention the words in parentheses despite Section 9 [2]starting by saying "The notice must—..." As the Notice to Keeper fails to comply with the Act,  it follows that the Notice to Hirer cannot be pursued as they couldn't get the NTH compliant. Even if the the NTH was adjudged  as not  being affected by the non compliance of the NTK, the Notice to Hirer is itself not compliant with the Act. Once again the PCN fails to get the parking period correct. That alone is enough to have the claim dismissed as the PCN fails to comply with PoFA. Second S14 [5] states " (5)The notice to Hirer must— (a)inform the hirer that by virtue of this paragraph any unpaid parking charges (being parking charges specified in the notice to keeper) may be recovered from the hirer; ON their NTH , NPE claim "The driver of the above vehicle is liable ........" when the driver is not liable at all, only the hirer is liable. The driver and the hirer may be different people, but with a NTH, only the hirer is liable so to demand the driver pay the charge  fails to comply with PoFA and so the NPE claim must fail. I seem to remember that you have confirmed you received a copy of the original PCN sent to  the Hire company plus copies of the contract you have with the Hire company and the agreement that you are responsible for breaches of the Law etc. If not then you can add those fails too.

    • I understand what you mean. But consider that part of the problem, and the frustration of those trying to help, is the way that questions are asked without context and without straight facts. A lot of effort was wasted discussing as a consumer issue before it was mentioned that the property was BTL. I don't think we have your history with this property. Were you the freehold owner prior to this split? Did you buy the leasehold of one half? From a family member? How was that funded (earlier loan?). How long ago was it split? Have either of the leasehold halves changed hands since? I'm wondering if the split and the leashold/freehold arrangements were set up in a way that was OK when everyone was everyone was connected. But a way that makes the leasehold virtually unsaleable to an unrelated party.

    • 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.

If the amount they say I owe is incorrect and I can prove it, is the judgement reversable?

 

You would have to appeal the judgement I believe and in that instance you would need some legal reason to appeal and you'd need the permission of the court to apply if out of time. If the judge had all the information in front of him/her and you didnt show the amounts were different I dont think that constitutes an appealable reason.

 

Have a look at the CPR for appeals and see if you can meet one of the criteria....

Hi, the charge on the property will only be for your share of the equity. The equity owned by Mrs P is protected.

 

If the courts have allowed for a CO, it is going to be difficult to stop this unless you have strong grounds to challenge the CCJ.

 

If you are unable to challenge the CO,cannot pay the debt, you could ensure that the CO is only granted on the understanding that they cannot apply for a for sale order. That way, the debt is secured, they will get there money when u choose to sell, or are in a position to offer a full & final. But they cannot under any circumstances force you to sell.

Hi

google "charging orders the myth"

and look at this from HMRC.

Jointly owned property

It is not possible to register a charging order as an ‘equitable charge’ on a jointly owned property unless all the owners / registered proprietors are judgment debtors. Where only one of the owners / registered proprietors is the judgment debtor, the order will be registered as a ‘restriction’.

Agreed notices or restrictions

Since the Land Registry Rules 2003 took effect in October 2003, a charging order is registered as either an ‘agreed notice’ (shown on the register as an ‘equitable charge’) or a ‘restriction’. Prior to October 2003 where only one of the owners / registered proprietors was the judgment debtor, the order was registered as a ‘caution’. A caution served much the same purpose as a restriction. Any cautions registered before October 2003 will remain on the register.

A notice or restriction does not impose an obligation to make payment when the property is sold.

 

The circus you go through makes you think that your

property is charged when it is infact not.

I have looked into this, and it appears many folks have sold there property without paying the creditor, but have simply notified them, of the sale.

I object strongly to Restons Solicitors insinuating that I am dishonest and that I will not pay my debt to MBNA unless they are granted a Charging Order. I would like to point out that it is not I that has deliberately set out to ensnare people into a spiral of debt , but MBNA and their associates. There is plenty of evidence of this on consumer help websites, not only in this country but also in the USA.

Does anyone think the above is a little strong for court?

Can you prove that they have deliberately set out to ensnare people into a spiral of debt? How do you know that what is posted on websites is correct? You have said that they're saying you're dishonest, but attacking does not defend what you say they're claiming.

 

Just stick to the facts of your case, be clear and concise, and don't get emotional about it.

 

I understand where you're coming from but I honestly don't think the above will help one jot. In fact I'd be more inclined to point out that you are someone who can clearly be trusted, given the nature of the job that you do.

The following have just arrived from Restons. The figures quoted do not add up to the amount the judgement was for (£12,900 which included £3k costs) mbna have not taken off the amounts agreed with the FOS or paid me the agreed compensation.

Thanks, would you please look at the last post on the following thread if you get the time. Cheers

I am giving notice that I object to the Charging order being made final and I intend to attend the hearing at the above date and court.

 

My objections are;

 

1, The mortgage on the property, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, is held in the joint names of Mr xxxxxxxxxxxxxxand Mrs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. The debt to MBNA is in the sole name of Mr xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

 

2. I am of the belief that it is not possible to register a charging order as an “equitable charge” on a jointly owned property unless all the owners/registered proprietors are judgment debtors. Where only one of the owner/registered proprietors is the judgment debtor, the order will be registered as a “restriction”. This information comes from the HMRC website.

 

3. I work part-time, earning less than £100/wk, and the mortgage payment is met by my wife Mrs xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxin her capacity as the main foster carer.

 

4. It has been brought to my attention that the adjustments to the amount MBNA say I owe is incorrect as the adjustments they told the FOS they would make, and the compensation to be paid to myself, have not yet been paid a year after the FOS final decision.

 

5. Section 7 of the Witness Statement issued by Restons Solicitors on 26 November 2010 stated that refunds of £xxxx.xxand £xxx.xx were not in respect of PPI premiums and that the Claimant would seek a reduced sum by way of judgment. This did not occur.

 

6. I believe that interest cannot be added to the debt for the following reason taken from the National Debtline England website., If the creditor has taken the debt to the county court, they may be able to add extra interest once a charging order is made. Interest cannot be added if: the debt is for an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act. This includes most ordinary credit agreements.

 

7. I am now being harassed to pay off the debt in full when the judgement says I can pay it off at £100/month. The letters from Restons asking this show figures which do not add up to the judgement figure.

 

Yours faithfully

Do you have a CCJ that has an installment order and are repayments being maintained?

 

Your second point is irrelevant imo and I would remove, it's common knowledge and doesn't need stating as the DJ will know it.

 

In point 7 I would take out the word "harassed" as it's too emotive.

Thanks for your reply.

The CCJ was by consent and was a "Forthwith" order. No further action to be taken if I maintain payments of £100/month except they could apply for a CO.
