    • Do you intend to revise this thread's title assuming Labour win the general election?  
    • quite usual for couriers to swap parcel contents, though it could have been done by someone at the 1st address before it got to where it should have .... ebay. just to clarify as you seem to be not understanding/reading some posts correctly.   you should always ignore a dca totally unless you ever get a letter of claim in the post. you never ever ring a DCA.. they LIE. no!! no!! they dont own the debt, their txt says our client ebay. only the OWNER of a debt can take you to court. and ebay dont do court. i find it quite amazing that you have numerous threads about ebay/paypal regarding issues since you joined in 2011 but have never read any of the advice previously given. dx    
    • so where are the one with this HMTL link? and when were they sent.? pdf's merged and properly named. dx  
    • Hi Just had a wee look at your PDF and nothing really to add. Now as for the Court Fees if these are in there Claim then that is for the Judge to decide whether they accept the recovery of Court Fees in the Claim. If recovery of Court Fees are not in the Claim and they try to recover these via your deposit then you dispute this with the Tenancy deposit scheme your deposit is protected in and point out these costs should have been in there Court Claim which they failed to do and is there error.  
    • The postcode is an important point. You cannot be in two postcodes at the same time and the contract only covers the F area and not the E area where Met placed your car. See there is some   advantages in with idiots.🙂 The other fact about the electric spaces is that as you are not allowed to park there, the sign is prohibitory so cannot  offer a contract anyway. and another biggie in your favour is you were not the driver and the PCN does not comply with PoFA. I had another look yesterday at the PCN and there is another error since it does not say that the driver is responsible to pay the charge during the first 28 days. Schedule 4 Section 9 [2][b] (b)inform the keeper that the driver is required to pay parking charges in respect of the specified period of parking and that the parking charges have not been paid in full; so that is another nail in their coffin and it s something I would include in  your WS since that is one that every Judge would accept as a failure to comply. As far as their WS is concerned some of them leave it to the last minute to prevent Defendants being able to counteract their claims. However if they leave it too late [ie after the stipulated time] you can email yours to the Court on the last day and complain at the bottom of your WS that you have not received it and therefore you are asking the Court not to accept their WS. In your case it isn't that important since you have a virtual walkover in Court. I would be surprised if they don't concede beforehand. It is a lost cause for them. Not that I would advocate parking in their electric bay in future with a petrol driven car again.🙂

    • 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.

Long story short:

 

Paying Cl 1xx a month on 14 k debt via DMP

CL out of the blue money claimed me

Got help from CAG to defend the case

Case got stuck out:grin:

THEN CL CAME UP WITH A VAILD CCA (sent to me)

I ask the court for a judgment in my favour and cost on the grounds of abuse of power.

Court has given me cost today but said nothing about judgment

 

 

the big question is HAVE I WON or can they come back at me again???

 

I'm still paying:roll:

Update CL have today offered me a 75% discount the 25% is to paid over the next three years. Gave them a phone and had a very interesting conversation first time talked to someone with a brain and didn’t get the BS

My position is I’m still paying

There position is we have a valid CCA and statements and we can get the Default notice and assignment easily. We would apply to the court for the case to continue on the basis we made a “clerical error”. “IF” we were allows to continue we would no doubt win (I agreed) and you pay 100% over the next 13:( years and have a ccj

You might stop paying and IF we were unable to get the judge to let us restart you get a 100% discount.:D

So why not take the offer…..

Here’s the kicker the offer letter is without prejudice, total owe is shown with the discount but…….

What’s to stop them getting three years payment then saying OK thanks for that you still owe us 8 Grand….and be right back where I was????????????

I want to take the offer but scared there going to shaft me

I suggest that you get a legal contract drawn up that ensures they don't come back on you as you suggest. It may well be worth paying to instruct a lawyer unless there is a CAG member who has a template?

OMG what do you do? This was a without prejudice offer, so not linked to the court case?

 

If it was a part 36 offer through the court then you would need to give it serious thought. And you are right in that unless everything is done right they could come back for the rest later.

 

I really don't have enough experience to tell you what to do and just hope someone else comes along who can. I am not sure what I would do in your position - it sounds too good to be true, but is that because they know they are on a losing streak?

BANK CHARGES

Nat West Bus Acct £1750 reclaim - WON

 

LTSB Bus Acct £1650 charges w/o against o/s balance - WON

 

Halifax Pers Acct £1650 charges taken from benefits - WON

 

Others

 

GE Money sec loan - £1900 in charges - settlement agreed

GE Money sec loan - ERC of £2.5K valid for 15 years - on standby

FirstPlus - missold PPI of £20K for friends - WON

Hold on though, the case has been struck out - which I had noted but forgotten. No bloody wonder they were being so reasonable.

 

Hmmmm, for future peace of mind what do you do? We had similar situation with Link and have told them on many occasions that they lost the court case so goodbye.

 

I guess it is up to you at the end of the day. If you agree to pay them is that admitting to the debt? I really don't know how to help so I will stop rambling and hope that common sense or someone else takes over.

 

If it was me I would tell them 'no' but then I have nothing left to lose.

Attach a cheque to the following letter, photocopy them showing cheque attached to letter (even better, get someone to witness it as well, i.e. a soliciter):

 

 

Name, address etc,

 

Dear XXX,

 

RE: Payment in full and final settlement of account(s) XXXXXXX.

 

I note your letter of DATE, and without admission of liability accept your offer of full and final settlement of any debt outstanding in return for the amount of £XXXX.

 

I understand that you will take no further legal action with regard to this debt. I further note you will update my credit record to reflect that any debt outstanding on account XXXXXX has been settled.

 

Please do not cash the attached cheque (No XXXXX) unless you are willing to abide by these conditions.

 

Yours Sincerly,

 

XXXX.
