    • Better version attached with the late appeal explained more clearly for the judge. This will sound silly, but I think it would be a good idea to e-mail it to the court and UKPC on Sunday.  It's probably me being daft, but Sunday is still March, and as it's late, sending it in March rather than April will make it sound like it was less late than it really is.  if you get my drift. You can still pop in a paper version on Tuesday if you want. E-mail address for the court: [email protected] And for UKPC: [email protected]   [email protected] Defendant WS.pdf
    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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 Rob

As I told you in my PM, I'm trying to get some expert advice. A further question I need answered is this: the real default notice which I hold is a copy, I sent the original to Payplan, who inform me that it was shredded and a copy held electronically. What a load of stupid barstewards, they obviously don't appreciate the importance of keeping original documents. It seems par for the course with Payplan though as I've read stories from people on here who have let them (Pp) deal with court claims on their behalf and Pp have just gone ahead and admitted the debt without offering any defence. They've sent me their copy which is of course the same as mine. As they're both copies, should I get my Payplan officer to sign some kind of witness statement saying it's a true copy of the one sent to them in February 2007. What do you think? I'm no expert but I guess that might be advisable. I guess if I claim their version is a fake, couldn't they say the same about mine? I would say that they have more reason than you to be the ones who are trying to cover their tracks, especially as you didn't notice the difference/relevance although how that could be demonstrated I'm not sure.

Cheers

Polly

 

I was hoping there would be some mileage in your invalid default notice, then some more with the second one being fraudulent. It would be nice to get some expert opinion on these ideas.

 

It may even be that if there is a strong case showing that the bank are attempting to commit fraud, then by pointing this out to them, they may be willing to cooperate with you in removing the CCJ. :rolleyes:

Hi anyone

I'm sending my defence of tomorrow and if anyone could have a look at it and tell me if I'm on the right track, I would very much appreciate it. Not finished yet, but I'm knackered. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

 

Thanks

Polly

Very good Polly. I can't think of anything to add off the top of my head but if I think of anything before tomorrow I'll let you know.

HAVE YOU BEEN TREATED UNFAIRLY BY CREDITORS OR DCA's?

Hi Polly

 

Yes I'm interested for one! Sorry I didn't reply before now but I've had my head down (not the toilet!). Been very busy typing some responses to various ongoing battles, and typing is not my cup of tea!

 

Wishing you continued good luck with this :)

Hey Rob

Thanks for your good wishes.

I have a question for anyone out there.

 

Someone on this site advised me I could charge 9.25 an hour for my time. Weightmans agent charges 95 an hour. Is there any reason I can't charge the same or more, even. Where do these sums come from, they seem a bit arbitrary?

 

Cheers Polly

Hi Polly, from my time as a legal secretary, I know that Solicitors' hourly charging rates in the Courts have to follow set guidelines, which I think are set by either the Courts Service or the Law Society (can't remember which). The amount they can charge per hour is set according to the seniority and qualifications of the person in the law firm handling the case and the area of the Court they are appearing in. These vary between about £80 per hour for an unqualified legal clerk in the sticks, all the way up to about £400 per hour for a top jolly in London. I'd say if Weightmans are allowed £95 per hour in your case, that they have a legal exec on it (probably with only about 4 years post-qualification experience). Now let me tell you that from m time as a legal sec, some legal execs were damned good at their jobs and others were absolutely hopeless. Let's hope you get an absolutely hopeless one, eh? Good luck.

Thanks for that, I guess I'll just have to bolt up my hours that I've spent working on the case, so that my fees come up to theirs, ha, ha. Thanks for responding, I've finished my further evidence and its attached, if it's of any use to you.

...... I've finished my further evidence and its attached, if it's of any use to you.

 

Hi Polly

 

I've just had a read of your statement and to my non-expert eye it looks good.

 

 

Regarding your para 21, the following is what pt2537 (Paul) added to my witness statement which he tweaked for me, and I suspect he wouldn't mind if you were to adjust it to your own circumstances:

I have yet to view the original credit agreement or any other original documents that the claimant seeks to rely upon, I am aware that the civil procedure rules makes provision for the original documentation to be made available under practice direction 32. It is clear to me that since it is disputed that the documents which the Claimant seeks to rely upon as the alleged “Credit Agreement” the only way to establish truly if they are indeed part of the same document is to produce the original document before the court. In addition, I am aware that there are many regulations and statutory acts which place a duty upon the Claimant to retain original documentation inter alia- the Money Laundering Regulations, the Companies Act 1985 sections 221 and 222 etc. so it stands to reason that they should be able to bring before the court a copy of the original document.

Also, if you can prove the agreement is not enforceable, what about my suggestion earlier in this thread (post #34) that any interest added (ie contractual interest?) by the claimant during the history of the account was added unlawfully as there was never any agreement to allow that to take place? That was just an idea I had from someone elses suggestions elsewhere on these forums, I don't actually know if it's a legitimate argument but it might be worth seeking expert opinion on.

 

 

Cheers

Thanks Rob, I've modified that chunk and pasted it into my evidence. You probably noticed that most of it was from your amended defence. Let's hope it serves the purpose.

I like your idea about the interest. I wonder what anyone else thinks?

Not forgetting that my amended defence was not my handiwork, but was courtesy of Paul of course ;)

Have to say this. I had quite a bit of input on this thread initially and now it seems to have been abandoned. I've had no expert input for some time now, thoughI wouldn't understimate the input of those who've been supporting me (robag, lightattheend) I just think its a shame, that through whatever process is taken precendence here, a case should be abandoned like this before the crucial last stages.

Hi Polly

 

I can understand your frustration.

 

I know it's preferred that people stick to 1 thread per case, but how about starting a new thread with a catchy title so as to attract some attention, and referring to this thread?

 

Good luck ;)

I wonder, Polly, if it might be because people see that you're doing so well that they don't feel they have anything useful to add at the moment. I expect there are still plenty of people watching this thread and waiting for developments though, even if they're silent at the moment. Keep your chin up. :)

Thanks you two:)

I was just having a bad moment but I'm back on course now. That's a good idea Rob about a new thread. I really need to know what if anything I should admit to in court and what might happen there. I wonder what the possibilities are when you have a non-valid default notice and agreement.

Thinking on it. Thanks again.

Hi Polly. I've been following your thread with interest, as I'm tryin to get a ccj overturned also - but I'm further behind than you, so I'm afraid I havent got any valid or useful advice to give.

 

I particularly like the evidence you put together - it sounds really solid.

 

Also, it sounds like you've got two good un's fighting your corner too -

Hi Polly, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, my toes crossed, my legs crossed, my arms crossed - just about everything. Go for it, give it your best shot, try to keep calm and collected. In final preparation tonight, try to imagine what questions you might be asked by the DJ, think very carefully what your answers should be. Tomorrow, be very respectful, don't get agitated or angry, be on your very best behaviour where the DJ is concerned. All the very best to you. And when all's said and done, you really can only do your best. You will always have the satisfaction of having done that. Good luck to you. :-) :-) :-)
