    • It is an interesting Final Notice. Firstly because there is usually a reminder Notice before the final Notice. Secondly because it contains some of the wording that should be in the original PCN [aka Notice to keeper]. It could be that the necessary wording in the NTK is missing so they put it in the Reminder Notice to cover their error. If they have it hasn't worked. But the only wat we will know if you post up the back page of the Notice to keeper along with the other details asked for on Post 8 .  If they have got it wrong it means that they are unable to transfer the liability to pay the PCN from the driver to the keeper . I take it that you are the keeper and not the hirer? And do you know how long you are supposed to stay in that car park? In the past I have found Sainsbury's pretty good at cancelling PCNs for their customers. Take both PCNs in to the store and point out if you are a regular customer and that the driver spent a lot of money in their store and see if they could please do something with the ticket for you. if the manager can't help, then come back and we will give you their Head office and write to them. It is the easiest and quickest way to get the ticket cancelled. No point in appealing since that would mean they lose the chance to make any money out of you which is their whole reason for running the car park. If you cannot get Sainsbury to cancel then we rely on ECP getting things wrong so that you don't have to pay  on a technicality or technicalities. For example if the PCN does not comply with the Act and the keeper is not then liable it makes it difficult for ECP to win should it go to court as so many people are legally able to drive your car and Courts do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person. Which is why we do need to see the questionnaire filled in and the rest of the NTK. Also it would be helpful to get photos of the signs in the car park. Ones that can be read by us, and the sign at the entrance as well as the inside ones especially those that are worded differently. Poor signage is another defence that works well and you will  need a good defence should they decide to go to Court.
    • Thanks for answer ref address/bank. Thought it wise to double-check.   When I reply to them as per post #5, what should my reason for dispute be?   " dispute this debt because..recommended reason as advised from your thread and add the debt purchaser has yet to provide any or all of the required documentation."
    • Alternative is to access the video yourself, upload to YouTube or similar and link back here.  Video will be accessible once you input your details into Wandsworth website: https://parking.wandsworth.gov.uk/pcn  
    • Yeah only £10 so may as well just get it done. When it comes to liaising with the police and bargaining before it hopefully goes to court. How does that happen? Via email? Phone call etc

    • 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.

We're flying through the posts now. I think we should make 10,000 posts by christmas. :D

 

I wonder if there is a limit on how many posts you can have in a single thread?

 

And Mr Ton, posting nothing apart from what post number it is, is cheating. ;) Me thinks I'll get somone to delete them, so you'll have to do 6000 posts all over again. :D

Ah, Mr FB,

 

Would you ever consider setting up your own Debt Collection Harrasment Agency, where the likes of us pass your tel number off as ours and you do the harrassing on our behalf? You do it so well ;)

I certainly wouldn't mind subscribing to that...a dedicated line...you could make a fortune...

( wouldn't surprise me if someone's already suggested this in previous posts but I still gotta lotta wading to do)

 

:D

I think I'll have to grab the honour of 7000th post then. :D

 

 

Hmm a DCA harrasment agency. Then they'll be bleating to the OFT and CSA about that. They can't cope with a bit of "bad" publicity in the papers and on TV without bleating about how "Unfair that "won't pays" are now getting the sympathy from the media." They should have thought about that all those years of harassing us, and now it's payback time. :D

I know this is a bit of an early request, but does anyone have letters from DCA's asking you to text a number and then they'll call you back for some unlawful harassment?

 

I ask this as I'll be heading off the the USA two years from now, or sooner if I can. I thought it would be fun to text them using a disposable pay as you go sim card, then keep them taking for ages running up a nice phone bill for calling a mobile in the USA. :D

 

Calls will be recorded and videoed of course. :D

Been busy the last few days going through a load of Jeremy Kyle stuff a friend has kindly send me in Mpeg 2 format.

 

I have a feeling there is still some life in the 1st Credit video that they removed from their website a few weeks ago. Luckily I kept the original. :D Now what mischief can I create with these videos. ;)

 

Uncle Bob..Get off my stage!!!! :D It has to be done. Also it won't confuse the Americans like the Judge Judy video did. :p

Hate to P on your bonfire fuzzy but won't you get clobbered with roaming charges? Also not sure if things have changed in the US but if you call a mobile in the US you (the recipient of the call) have to pay the mobile part of the call??:confused:

 

Hope you have found a way round this (or that I am totally wrong :D) and you can stiff a few DCA's for some international call charges :)

Evening all,

 

Just been reading around the site a bit (I know that might shock some of you lol...) and apparently some of the DCA's have online chat available on their websites. Just read a thread about meritforce with screenshots of the chat which was quite funny really
