    • Hi Schipoo and thank you for the update.   Excellent news for you and a huge relief, I imagine. You might like to start a new thread about Independent Tax if you want advice on that problem. HB
    • Hi everyone, I have an update on my case that I’d like to share with you all.  so after submitting 371 pages in my bundle, a witness statement and skeleton argument for my court case due to take place in Manchester on June 21st I got an email from my litigator stating that hmrc have pulled out and the case is now closed!    this is the body of the letter….. This letter, which is copied to the Appellant, pursuant to Rule 17 of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Tax Chamber) Rules 2009, the Respondents gives notice to the Tribunal of their intention to not defend the above appeal.   The Respondents respectfully invite the Tribunal to allow the appeal and close its file. In lieu of the above the Respondents would respectfully ask the Tribunal to vacate the hearing scheduled for Friday 21 June 2024. We would accordingly invite the Tribunal to close its file. Obviously this is extremely good news which hasn’t sunk in that after 3 years of fighting it is over.    I do have a further fight on my hands in that the Group Action I had joined with Independent Tax that had been disbanded in November last year and I chose not to continue with them. They are trying to bill me over 5k for the work they did under that Group Action which is ludicrous bearing in mind the whole point in joining was that it would keep the cost to a minimum as it would be shared between us all. They had asked if I wanted to continue to have them represent me on an individual level which I declined, if I hadn’t, goodness knows what they would have been trying to charge me now.

    • As PM Sunak really showed his true colours at the D Day Commemorations by doing what? Oh I am the British PM lets just leave early I have better things to do and as he is called out on disrespecting all those veterans that served our country for the freedoms we have today he gives a groveling apology to little to late. He knew about this event for a long time and also knew that this is probably the last D Day Commemoration due to the age of those Veterans who gave so much for there countries freedom. Even on the day of the D Day Commemoration he still could have changed his plans As PM and stayed but choose not to showing such DISRESPECT to those Veterans, those that lost there lives and Families for the Freedoms we have today Being a Veteran myself I have never known a PM to show such disrespect what the hell was he thinking SHAME ON YOU PM SUNAK

    • 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.

Have to admit I am getting into the sport of DCA baiting and have started using S Pimpernel's short form letters which end in 'If you don't understand any part of this letter you should take legal advice'.

 

Got Mr Angry from Glasow this morning who had taken exception to this, demanding immediate payment NOW and the usual rant, court action, boil your head in oil, etc.

 

When he finished, I asked very slowly and clearly, (as you do if someone's command of English is poor),

 

"Do....you....understand.....put.....up.....or....shut....up?"

 

Oh Lord above, he went off the scale and when I couldn't help laughing, he actually became completely incoherent!!!!

 

Hope he phones back soon.:D:D:D

Just as an aside...........

 

Don't know if you have seen that as of last week, THe Bank of England is short of 3 of it's Directors.

 

No, they haven't quit, no they haven't resigned and are reporting for work as normal. It seem that The Treasury, that august body with Darling at the helm and Brown puling the strings, simply forgot to renew their contracts when they expired. Apparently urgent steps are being taken to remedy the situation.

 

It's good to know that in these troubled financial times, such capable people will see us through.

;)Had 2 calls from C.A.R.S this morning.

1st call wife hung up on them then almost straight away they called again, so I answered the phone:

 

ME: Hello

DCA: Your debt won't go away

ME: Excuse me

DCA: Oh sorry can I speak to Mrs Daarab

ME: Who's calling

DCA: CARS

ME: Hang on

 

I then Brief the wife on what to say:

 

Mrs : Hello

DCA: Is that Mrs Daarab

Mrs : Yes

DCA : Mrs Daarab is a woman

Mrs : I am a woman

 

DCA then hung up - I know the wife has a deep voice :-)

 

Question now is: Do I sue C.A.R.S for calling my wife a man?

OR

Do I have a closer look and make sure my wife is a woman.;)

Just remember to keep smiling and ask if you need help. :-)

 

I can't read and I can't write, but that don't really matter, cos I come from Lincolnshire, and I can drive a tractor.

Being a little serious here, get your wife to invoke their complaints procedure as they have breached data protection and have also insulted her.

All help is merely my opinion only - please seek legal advice if you need to as I am only qualified in SEN law.

DCAs are bastions of the truth and its just us debt dodgers who fall foul of them. They behave at all times in an impeccable manner and are a credit to society in general. They provide jobs for people who are too stupid to flip burgers for MC Donalds and Burgerking and help the economy of Britain so much. Unlike us caggers they never tell lies, they dont bully people or threaten them on the phone.They are fully conversant with all aspects of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and 2006 as well as always operating within OFT guidelines on the collection of debt with particular attention to s5 of the Limitation Act 1980.

Ireland.

In one week:

 

The 'Northerners', on whom we have spent a lot of time, effort and blood ensuring that they did not become part of a Federal Ireland, against the wishes of the majority, repaid us by allowing people to be locked up for 42 days on the trot.

 

The 'Southerners', defeated the combined might of the governments, (including ours) and the unelected bureaucrats of Europe, to shove through a European Constitution by the back door.

 

Well, what can you say.

We can say thank you Irland

 

Not that it will do any good as the Eurokrates will force the treaty through by hook or crook. With a second election in Irland just like the last time.

If they don't vote the way you like the first time have another vote till they vote the way you want. What an example to Robert Magabie .

my dad called one back yesterday got through to the guy that had hung up on him, told him if he ever saw him he was gunna give him a slap, and called him a [edit] and hung up!

 

The best thing to do, is to find out who you spoke/speak to, call back a few days later on withheld number, using a fake name, and ask to go through to them, using a fake name, and saying you have a full balance to pay. when you get through to them, (they will fall over themselves to answer your call) then say what u want to p them off and hang up!!

I think the N.I. MPs who voted for the 42 days have a lot more experience on the effects of terrorism than most.

Can only say fair comment to that.

 

Guessing game at the moment though, is what political trade offs in grants and jobs did Gordon give them to help him out of the hole he has dug for himself.

 

Hmmmmmmm. That actually would mean that they have used the situation to benefit the people of Northern Ireland. Which means that errrrrr....... they are doing the job that they were elected to do.

 

Which means that I'd better engage brain before opening mouth.:eek:
