    • thats a good point. I've attached the policy but can't see anything about reporting accidents being mandatory. Unless I'm missing something?  this is only the policy document. But I can't see it being in any of the others (list below)?  Schedule & IPBY Shows the details you gave us when you bought your policy. Includes main and additional driver details, add-ons and excesses. Insurance Certificate Proof of your vehicle insurance. It shows who's covered, your vehicle use, and any cover exclusions. Insurance Policy Explains the terms and conditions of your cover. Credit agreement Outlines the terms, payments, and interest of your credit agreement. Important Information Document Outlines fees and charges, how your data is used, and how to ask for documents in different formats. Insurance Product Information Document Details of your cover and exclusions. Direct debit information Details of your Direct Debit, such as your collection, bank details, payment amount and your Direct Debit Guarantee Pre contract credit information Outlines the key features, costs, and legal details of your credit agreement.

    • I've never thought they were reliable enough and stories like this just confirm what I thought. Tesla owner says car in ‘full self-driving mode’ failed to detect a moving train WWW.AOL.CO.UK The close-shave in Camden, Ohio, was captured from multiple angles by the car’s cameras  
    • Hi,  I had a look through the credit agreement again, despite the signature looking legit I've noticed the below and wondered if they'd work as part of my defence, a)    The document headed ‘Your Personal Details’ has an office stamp which is unreadable. b)    On the above mentioned document under section ‘What to do next’ it states turn to agreement form on page 3 however 2 pages are provided. c)    The above mentioned document is unsigned & dated on behalf of Halifax PLC. d)    Two sets of documents headed ‘Credit Card Agreement Regulated By The Consumer Credit Act 1974’ was received containing dissimilar information. Under Parties to this agreement, both papers contain different name / address of the banking institute as well as Defendants address. This document is not on letter headed paper, the layouts are different, paragraph numbers differ as does the document content. Thanks again for any help.
    • Read your Insurance policy. It will say you have to report all accidents with a certain period of time. If you fail to report to your Insurers, if the third party does make a claim and your Insurers are contacted, you will he contacted by your Insurers stating you have failed to meet the terms of the Insurance contract. The Insurers still have obligation under Road Traffic Act to deal with third party claim, but when your Insurance is due for renewal, they may refuse to offer you further cover. Best to inform your Insurers, because the third party appears to be wanting someone to pay for car repair. Or worse they will try to say they suffered an injury. Yes you will see an increase in premium at renewal, but not reporting may mean you end up in a worse position.

    • 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

I have today received a letter from a company called Debt Investigation Services regarding my debt to Sky. They say they are going to send somebody round (I know which letter to send re this) but they also say they may conduct a review of our income and expenditure. Are they entitled to do this? The debt is only for about £100 so I will be clearing it by mid Feb when I start my new job.

 

many thanks

 

Debbie

Of course they can conduct an investigation. But, without your help it'll be pretty much a waste of time. They may have more luck conducting an orchestra. :D

 

Just ignore them, but do address the debt you say you have to Sky and that will get rid of them for good.

 

What is it for. Post some details so we can help you decide what to do next.

These muppet give themselves fancy sounding names and try to make out they have some legal standing. They would find it extremely difficult to conduct an income and expense review from the bottom of your street

The debt is from last year..3 months sky tv. Mind you they cut it off after 2 but still charged for an extra month.

 

What I'm really asking is am I legally obliged to give them my financial details to enable them to conduct their "investigation"

 

Thanks for your replies

You are under NO LEGAL OBLIGATION whatsoever to speak to theses people. The advice on here would be to keep every communication with them IN WRITING.

 

These DCA employees and Telephone Debt Chasers despite what they think or say have NO LEGAL POWERS WHATSOEVER
