    • I will try again...................... Even at my age there is quite clearly a PCN envelope by the windscreen wipers on your car on some of the photos.  But as I said in the IPC letter, that is not the dispute. The dispute is that CPM sent you the second PCN on the 28 th day of the issue date of the first PCN. It should not have been sent until the day AFTER the original PCN was issued. Therefore they broke the Act, they breached the IPC Code of Conduct and their agreement with the DVLA. It is something that the IPC cannot ignore since to do so will bring the ICO down on them and the DVLA should ban CPM from getting data from them once they know if the ICO do nothing. The minimum I expect is that your PCN will be cancelled. But it is up to you. I have given you the details, you have copies of both PCNs sent to you on the sar  with all  the relevant dates.

    • The Private Parking Code of Parking has been postponed as the poor dears are frightened that thew will all go out of business once it becomes Law. We all wish but nothing could be further from the truth so doubtless most of them will have to change their ways if they don't want to be removed as approved parking companies. Thank you for still retaining and producing the original PCN which, no surprise, fails to comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. [It even states the vehicle "breeched" the terms  when it was the driver that allegedly breached the terms}. It fails to specify the Parking Period and whilst it does show the arrival and departure ANPR times on the photographs [that I cannot read] they do not include how long you actually parked nor was it specified on the Notice  [photos don't count]. So that means that you spent even less time parked though it would help had you not blocked out the dates and times, so good if you could please include them on your next  post. Pofa  asks the driver to pay the charge S( [2][b] which your PCN doesn't though they do ask the keeper to pay.and they have missed out theses words in parentheses S9[2][f] ii)  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; All of those errors mean that the cannot transfer the charge from the driver to the keeper. Only the driver is now responsible . What a rubbish Claim Form -doesn't even give the date of the event which it should.  
    • it doesn't matter what you are being charged or if you missed the discount period. you ain't paying anyway..... if this ever gets before a judge. then the ins and out of POFA2012 or any IPC/BPA guidelines might come into play. until then i go get on with your life. you are spending far too much time on a speculative invoice scan scheme  its almost as if you believe these are fines and enforceable in a criminal court and you could have bailiffs at your door any minute.

    • 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.

you cant really stop them asking her for a interview as it is now a procedure she has to go threw.

 

You can ring them on tuesday and say she is to unwell to attend and any interviews would need to be done at her house.

 

The problem is the interview effects her benefits so if she doenot turn up they will be instantly stopped. but you can appeal this due to illness. He illness should be a good reason for her not having her benefits stopped.

 

Just ring them and explain the situation they might be helpful.

can some one answer a question for me - MBNA have sold on the Debt which cant be chased, Everheds have said as much, so whats the point? Its a write off to who ever has the debt, isnt it? I am very confused about this, I am sure its nothing that I need worry about, but its seems a pointless excercise.

All these companies seem to specialise in pointless exercises. I think they do it in the hope that they will bleed a few pounds out of some poor person who is intimidated by the harrassment.

Eversheds, Max Recovery, and other similar companies buy bankruptcy debts.

 

They buy them in bulk and pay very little for them. While most will never generate a dividend from the OR/trustee, the odd one or two that do means they will on average make a profit.:rolleyes:

Eversheds have said that we will never hear from them again as they will be talking to the OR - well they will not get anything for this one - as the OR has already determined there is no income that can be used (benefits being exempt), there are no assets either. So there must be enough people out there who go bankrupt who do have to pay something, thus making it worthwhile for the likes of Eversheds, interesting. Will be interesting to see what happens with the Barclaycard one, although that is currently in their fraud investigation department. They were the worse as far as chasing my daughter was concerned, but they did believe my daughter regarding the impossiblity of the expenditure on her card being my daughters doing, especially the ones where my daughter was in intensive care in Papworth, and the spending being done in Belfast.

It'll be interesting to see what Barclays do with that.

 

If it does get sold on then most of them go to Max Recovery, which was why I mentioned them earlier. Again, they are normally very easy to deal with.

 

For example: Barclays sold my debt.....?

OK so we thought the worse was over - Council Tax - it seems that the Borough Council have decided to recalim the bit that was put on the bankruptcy by 1. bringing it forward to the new tax year, and 2. by cancelling her council tax benefit - of course the letter arrived on this (Saturday) morning so we cant talk to them until Monday morning to find out exactly what is going on. bu from the Council/housing Benefit office there is a letter clearly stating that they have cancelled her claim for Council Tax, does not say why and that they want the following two amounts of excess Council Tax Benefit Back £586.22 and £47.63 and the method of recovery is against her Council Tax Bill - however what I do not understand is that her council tax bills are for more then those amounts, the smaller amount is on one of the amended bills, the bigger amount doesnt show, in fact they want £950.77 from her. She cant pay this, her income is way too small to be able to afford these amounts. Dont understand at all why this has happened, trying not to panic on her behalf, and she isnt panicking 'cause she believes that I can sort out everything - I wish:(

 

 

Oh and Barclaycard are still investigating - now not sure if its the fraud dept or as a result of my complaints to TS, FOS etc. they have given themselves another month to satisfy themselves and us!

panic over - what a pallaver! they have to send out all these letters to close the joint account, then they open the new account and give her her full council tax benefit, and send out more letters. How the hell do people cope with all this stress that these letters cause? Why does everything have to be so complicated? Transparency and simplicity would be so much bettter.

Well its a council thing really.

 

What i found when i moved was they sent us a letter saying that we were not entitled to HB/CTB but never put that itw was for the previous tenancy.

 

So when i rang them up they appologised and said it was an error.

I think these people think we would be bored if everything was simple. I mean, we would be able to focus on our family and living our lives if we didn't have all this rubbish to deal with - heaven forbid :eek::mad:

sister.

 

If they made everything simple and transparent then they would not need to have telephone pll to tell you yes we have made a mistake nor would they need to have ppl at a front desk to say the same.

 

Also i think they just wanted to cause a problem as they can.

 

How is your daughter now anyway?

Ill - another infection. One of the vascular surgeons tried to blackmail her in to something she doesnt want, and told her that she would die if it wasnt done - he didnt allow for her knowing a little bit about her condition, and although it was upsetting she gave him what for with facts and stats - he later went back and apologised to her. I currently dont have much faith in those who are supposedly better educated then us - so many doctors and surgeons think they know it all - but they dont, they all know a little bit and are unwilling to see the whole picture. We are starting to take her out for little treats when she feels well enough. Some times she agrees, mostly she cries off, still trying to get her to come home (that is for my sake I agree - its so hard running two houses and working and trying to be a grandma to the little ones - so things get forgotten about, even serious things like end of tax year - got to work a bit harder, maybe start working through the night:( - need another couple of pairs of hands, or maybe an clone of me:wink: )

lol completely agree the the allerged proffessionals there sister.

 

They still cant agree with what date i am due. it is now ranging from between the 5th june and the 15th june.

 

Glad she kicked his backside but i bet he did not like it.

 

Is there not a family member that can help with the basics like dropping buy and help with housework or end of year taxes maybe if you explain to them that your daughter is not well then they may give u a bit of breething space.

thank you Chrissi

 

problem is that we run a couple of family businesses, thats what gets us the money to live on, theoretically I have loads of sisters as well as a brother, but I am the one who is supposed to help them being the eldest, i was told this in no uncertain terms when I asked them to think about us (daughter and me) when we went in to hospital 16 years ago for me to give a kidney to my daughter - I was asking for the world it seems, I was told that I shouldnt be bothering them with my problems, their lives were so much more fraught - I wasnt asking for anything concrete not even help for the care of my eldest daughter - she came and stayed in the hospital with us! I at that time a single mum with two youngish children one of whom was poorly. So I managed then and now I do have a partner who is wonderful and supportive, but there is a limit as to how much we can all do, so things do slip. We manage and will go on managing, and we do have some fun and laughter, but I could do with that holiday we had to cancel during March! I could sleep for a couple of years given half a chance. (We did have a few good years between transplant and cancer - now we talk about good days!)

 

Ah well lunch break almost over, off to postal pack all the orders! (Jill of all trades - thats me)

Its been taking forever but we now have the definitive answer. Virgin will not give her an account for TV and telephone, not even with a substantial deposit until she is discharged. They will not put it into my name as I already have an acount at a different address. They will not accept a guarantor either - all this via the CEO office.

 

There is no Aerial at her house so we will have to pay for that and a freeview box, considerably more expensive, and we need to persuade BT to give her a telephone account - now we know the downside of bankruptcy

sisterno1, don't give up - get in contact with your local MP, the money program, business lunch etc, and if necessary buy a single share and inform the MD that you will be visiting them at their annual general meeting and asking them why they have chosen such action.

 

Basically, make a hell of a fuss;)
