I assume the gym will start taking DD's again now as they are opening again. As DX suggests, send them your brief cancellation letter, leave the DD open for them to take 1 further fee from you and then cancel the DD mandate via your bank. Don't expect the gym to do this as they will NOT. Keep us posted.

Several issues raised. What sometimes happens with benefits, is that when one benefit is backdated, there is a knock on effect to other benefits. In this case, you had received Universal Credit payments without Carers Allowance being deducted for, as when those UC statements were issued, the CA backdating decision had not been made. Eventually CA was backdated and you received a lump sum. This would have been advised to UC, who would have recalculated each monthly assessment period that the CA related to and this overpayment would have been automatically system calculated. Your revised UC payment statements can be viewed online on your claim and you can compare the revised net award amount with what you were originally paid by UC. The letter in your UC journal advising of the overpayment should confirm the time period the overpayment relates to. No harm in asking for a breakdown of the overpayment via your journal. In regard to the DO NOT IGNORE THIS MESSAGE , what this is about, is that due to the Covid-19 crisis the country was in during 2020, with millions of benefit claims being made, is that DWP did not check all information as thorougly as it would normally be checked. So they are currently going through a process of checking information again, to ensure it was accurate. Savings above £6000 need to be declared, as then UC would make deductions. And £16000 or more would mean not eligible for UC in most circumstances. In regard to an Tax credits overpayment debt, DWP Debt Management shoud be able to provide details of the debt amount referred to them and what the outstanding balance is. But as advised, if you dispute the Tax Credits overpayment, contact HMRC to challenge this. -

I did say "in general". Each case will turn on its individual merits. However, the ruling you kindly provided does raise an important point - that the burden of proof (whether the place where the driving occurred is subject to the RTA) rests with the prosecution. It is not for the defendant to prove that where he drove was not subject to the law. The prosecution can do this by adducing evidence of use by the general public and that's what they failed to do in the case you cited.

Post in Court Claim Against Hermes - item sent via Packlink was lost/tampered with **WON at mediation full amount **
jj58 posted a post in a topic,
Hi @BankFodder
Sorry for only updating you now, but after your guidance with submitting the claim it was pretty straight forward and I didn't want to unnecessarily waste your time. Especially with this guide you wrote here, so many thanks for that
So I issued the claim on day 15 and they requested more time to respond.
They took until the last day to respond and denied the claim, unsurprisingly saying my contract was with Packlink and not with them.
I opted for mediation, and it played out very similarly to other people's experiences.
In the first call I outlined my case, and I referred to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 as the reason to why I do in fact have a contract with them.
In the second call the mediator came back with an offer of the full amount of the phone and postage £146.93, but not the court costs. I said I was not willing to accept this and the mediator came across as a bit irritated that I would not accept this and said I should be flexible. I insisted that the law was on my side and I was willing to take them to court. The mediator went back to Hermes with what I said.
In the third call the mediator said that they would offer the full amount. However, he said that Hermes still thought that I should have taken the case against Packlink instead, and that they would try to recover the court costs themselves from Packlink.
To be fair to them, if Packlink wasn't based in Spain I would've made the claim against them instead. But since they are overseas and the law lets me take action against Hermes directly, it's the best way of trying to recover the money.
So this is a great win. Thank you so much for your help and all of the resources available on this site. It has helped me so much especially as someone who does not know anything about making money claims.
Many thanks, stay safe and have a good Christmas!
