    • Hi everyone, I have an update on my case that I’d like to share with you all.  so after submitting 371 pages in my bundle, a witness statement and skeleton argument for my court case due to take place in Manchester on June 21st I got an email from my litigator stating that hmrc have pulled out and the case is now closed!    this is the body of the letter….. This letter, which is copied to the Appellant, pursuant to Rule 17 of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Tax Chamber) Rules 2009, the Respondents gives notice to the Tribunal of their intention to not defend the above appeal.   The Respondents respectfully invite the Tribunal to allow the appeal and close its file. In lieu of the above the Respondents would respectfully ask the Tribunal to vacate the hearing scheduled for Friday 21 June 2024. We would accordingly invite the Tribunal to close its file. Obviously this is extremely good news which hasn’t sunk in that after 3 years of fighting it is over.    I do have a further fight on my hands in that the Group Action I had joined with Independent Tax that had been disbanded in November last year and I chose not to continue with them. They are trying to bill me over 5k for the work they did under that Group Action which is ludicrous bearing in mind the whole point in joining was that it would keep the cost to a minimum as it would be shared between us all. They had asked if I wanted to continue to have them represent me on an individual level which I declined, if I hadn’t, goodness knows what they would have been trying to charge me now.

    • As PM Sunak really showed his true colours at the D Day Commemorations by doing what? Oh I am the British PM lets just leave early I have better things to do and as he is called out on disrespecting all those veterans that served our country for the freedoms we have today he gives a groveling apology to little to late. He knew about this event for a long time and also knew that this is probably the last D Day Commemoration due to the age of those Veterans who gave so much for there countries freedom. Even on the day of the D Day Commemoration he still could have changed his plans As PM and stayed but choose not to showing such DISRESPECT to those Veterans, those that lost there lives and Families for the Freedoms we have today Being a Veteran myself I have never known a PM to show such disrespect what the hell was he thinking SHAME ON YOU PM SUNAK

    • 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.

thank you my friend !

 

For what it's worth, i had a letter from Shane Flynn who used to be their ceo and it took 10 days to arrive. Don't always believe what they tell you about letters being sent. I have been told loads of different stories and very seldom does the letter arrive when you think it will and invariably the date on the letter does not coincide with what they have told you over the phone !

Still nothing in the post, and no response to a chaser emails sent to Stuart Johnson yesterday and today.

 

Sent a further chaser to Gareth - but no reply.

 

10th July is the deadline - may need assistance if i dont get by then, im not doing any more chasing now - they have had their chance, although i am wondering if they are sending stuff to the right address as i havent had a statement from them for about 3 months and didnt recieve a confirmation reciept for my DPA request - still this shouldnt matter as i was recieving statements to my current address (moved 2 years ago and advised them of new address) plus my letter stated my current address.

 

I can now see why so many are hating MBNA.

Still no replies to emails so just rang them - DPA info was sent to my old address!!!! acording to their records i never changed my address, funny how i was receiving statements to my new adress up to around 3 months ago, not to mention i put my current address on the DPA letter.

 

 

These guys really are shocking.

spikey, go ballistic mate. ask them what they intend on doing to rectify matters. The fact that somebody else now knows you spending habits is quite embarrassing and what other info have they now got that could be used fraudulently if the new occupiers of that house were that way inclined. Blatant balls up on their part, make them suffer.

 

Remember, to make a claim through the courts under Data Protection Act you must also suffer damages as well as distress. Record the cost of calls and letters etc and then bang the distress claim on top of that.

Update.

 

Spoke to MBNA again last week, was advised that the list of fees was sent out to my new address and i would recieve later that week, i asked if it was just a list of fees or full statements so i could work out the interest incured, was advise that it was just a list of the fees, after some twoing and frowing MBNA agreed that they would send another letter with the list of fees and they would calculate the interest.

 

Letter for list of fees arrived Thursday

 

Letter with list of fees and interest arrived Friday

 

Funnly enough in their list of fees with interest they made one mistake by putting an extra £20 charge in - however the final figures listed at the bottom of the page are correct (i know this as i typed out all the fees into excel spread sheets).

spikey, you 're not the first mate but well done. Seems to me that if you get the right person that end you can do it all in one go. I chose not too in order to make their life hell but see no reason why you shouldn't try what is best for you. We must remember though that these guys are trained negiotiators and have the comanies best interest at heart, yet what they will say on the phone can and frequently does differ when it appears in writing.

I held back saying it was settle until the amount had been refunded to my card. I did speak to a few people at MBNA and have to say every one of them was very helpfull. Basically they want to resolve these matters as quickly and painlessly as possible and certainly dont want to go to court.

 

If anyone one wants details on how to get the matter resolved quickly drop me a PM, there are reasons i dont want to say how on here and will explain in the PM
