    • I googled "prescribed disability" to see where it is defined for the purposes of S.92. I found HMRC's definition, which included deafness. I don't  think anyone is saying deaf people cant drive, though! digging deeper,  Is it that “prescribed disability” (for the purposes of S.88 and S.92) is defined at: The Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1999 WWW.LEGISLATION.GOV.UK These Regulations consolidate with amendments the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1996...   ….. and sleep apnoea / increased daytime sleepiness is NOT included there directly as a condition but only becomes prescribed under “liability to sudden attacks of disabling giddiness or fainting” (but falling asleep isn't fainting!), so it isn’t defined there as a “prescribed disability”  Yet, under S.92(2)(b) RTA 1988 “ any other disability likely to cause the driving of a vehicle by him in pursuance of a licence to be a source of danger to the public" So (IMHO) sleep apnea / daytime sleepiness MIGHT be a prescribed disability, but only if it causes likelihood of "driving being a source of danger to the public" : which is where meeting / not meeting the medical standard of fitness to drive comes into play?  
    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.

    • 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 all,

 

well its been a long time since they dropped proceedings But recieved this yesterday from HC solicitors:-

 

"It is with concern that we note you have not made payments of thius debt as arranged.

 

Further delay cannot be tolerated and you should note that if a remittance is not recieved at this office BY RETURN OF POST our intstrictions are to apply to the court for Judgement to be entered against you. If this course of action is necessary further costs will be incurred for which you will be responsible.

 

We trust that the above mentioned action will not be necessary but should we not recieve payments and no further notuice will be given.

 

If you wish to discuss this matter phone blah blah blah!."

 

 

Firstly, they reference the case number that they dropped, so I dont see how they could apply for judgement. and how likley is it they are going to start the whole thing rolling again on the same basis as before.?

 

Could it be they have more info (unlikely I know ) and can they recommence proceedings for the same claim?

 

Should I send PT,s "send me what you intend to rely on in court letter" or ingnore it and see what happens?

 

 

Once again, all input appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

Scampjet.

Did you make any such arrangment to pay?

When they discontinued the claim, they fell on their sword in effect as they need the permission of the court to restart proceedings

 

This is set out in CPR 38

Hi paul, thanks again for the quick reply,

 

No I didnt make an arrangment!

I did not return their form as in post 104 and the telephone conversation was as in post 148.

 

We dumped the DMP in august. so the last payment they had was that which had allready gone off to the CCCs. an we havent spoke to them since so they have let 3 or 4 payment dates lapse!

Hi citizen,

 

Yes, I had letter of discontinuence from solicitors, and phoned the court to confirm. So I don,t see what judgement they say they will claim agianst me.

 

 

 

I think I would have been happier had you received this in writing from the court, however, I guess all you can do is send them a COPY of their own letter re the discontinuance with a covering letter asking them to explain what they are on about.

hi citizen,

 

I did ask the court to send confirmation and they said that they did not do this as the solicitors did so.

 

I also note that this time the letter is addressed only to me and does not include my wife who was a co-defendant with the case number they refer to. I would have thought that if they discontinued no judgement can be claimed, if none was made? I suppose they could start the whole thing again, but unless they have more ammo, I don,t see what they could gain.

It is my understanding they will only be able to start a fresh claim with the permission of the court and only then if they have new evidence. I shouldnt think there is anything to worry about their only writing to you. The case number refers to claim that was for both of you and that is what matters. :)

I thought this too! Perhaps I should just sit tight for now and see what happens?

 

If this were me, I would just sit back and wait for any further contact. Paul has already advised they would need the permission of the court. Might be worth having a read of CPR 38 just to put your mind at rest. :D I would advise you not to speak to them on the phone again, under any circumstances. You really need to continue protecting yourself and insist you will only communicate by letter.

thanks again citizen,

 

I haven't ( and don't intend to) spoken to them on the phone other than before they dropped the case. Its my guess that they testing the water again, possibly hoping that we have distroyed all the info. I am assuming that any action they could bring would have to be against myself and my wife as per the original case. If they indend to take it further.. I'll soon know about it...so watch this space as they say!:D

Well cpr38/7 seems plain enough!

 

I've dug out the notice of discontinuance (just to check) and its for myself + 1 other. And it states "All proceedings" So we'll see if they come up with something.

 

Thanks again.

Hi All,

 

after all this time (notice of discontinuance 7th july 2008) I have recieved out of the blue a letter from a company called UK Default recovery. they quote the original case number and very little other info. Big bold title .....DO NOT IGNORE THIS LETTER then just phone numbers basically. No head office address just a P.O. box.

 

Has anyone heared of this company?

I've recieved a "letter" (more of a leaflet) from these people regarding an old debt with CL finance which was was defended at court and they discontinued.

 

They Quote the original acount number (case number they call it), just a PO box address and no other company details. Phone numbers, and bold type...DO NOT IGNORE THIS LETTER.

 

I assume its a try-on. Should I even bother to explain?
