    • Care to briefly tell someone who isn't tech savvy - i.e. me! - how you did this? Every day is a school day.
    • Hi Guys, well a year on and my friend has just received this in the post today, obviously a little scared so looking for more of your advice.  Letter from the NCC dated 1-May-2024 is as follows.......   Before deputy district judge Haythorne sitting at the national business centre, 4th floor st Kathrine's house Northampton Upon reading an application from the claimant  it is ordered that  1. The claim be sent to the county court at #### (Friends local Court) Because this order has been made without a hearing, the parties have the right to apply to have the order set aside, varied or stayed.  A party making such an application must send or deliver the application to the court (together with any appropriate fee) to arrive within seven days of service of this order.  If the application is one which requires a hearing, and a) the party making the application is the defendant: and b) the defendant is an individual, then upon filing of the application the claim will be transferred to the defendants home court.  In all other cases requiring a hearing the claim will be transferred to the preferred court.    As a result of an order made on the 1 May 2024, this claim has been transferred to the county court at ##### (friends local court) 
    • I am heading over to hers tomorrow so I will find out.  Will there be something written in the agreement or does it depend on the agreement its self ? Just so I know what to look for, so I can provide as much information as possible on here. 
    • The answer to this is going to depend on what the agreement your friend signed says. Or contact the housing provider and ask them.

    • 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.

I owe BB about 3 keyboards and one monitor. Plus a few other peeps too. I'll just get a container ordered from China and pass the replacements out at christmas.

 

As for the Moorcoft letters. I've been busy on photoshop sorting out my own version, that's a bit more truthful. Watch this space and cover your keyboards and monitors with clingfilm......

well, not cheeky so much as leaving them speechless

 

having refused to answer any of RMA's DPAQ questions when they ring, I got the infamous "We will be calling" postcard.

 

rang em up (I was bored) and when the drone answered, said "Can I speak to someone to make a complaint about your company wasting my time please"

 

little stutter, she asked for my ref no (which I gave) and put me on hold

 

got put through to an "operations manager" who sounded quite polite

 

explained (well, lied) that I had had this card, and had waited in ALL day expecting their representative.

 

he explained that the card means they will be TELEPHONING (like I didnt know).

 

Well, it isn't worded very well, as if you meant Telephoning, then surely you should state that. in fact it is almost like you are trying to decieve people!" cue another stutter, and me pressing on "I think it may be advantageous for your company to look at rewording your card to avoid confusion, dont you?"

Reply: "Y-y-yes sir"

 

Me: "Ok, thank you, goodbye"

 

they didnt even seem to think to ask me about the debt that they are supposedly chasing. I was hoping they would, as it got settled with the OC today with £1k knocked off the total yay!

oh that was fun.

 

 

RMA just rang me. obviously realised they missed a chance last night :lol:

 

had a bit of fun with security "but you rang me!"

 

only partial answers to the questions until she got narked and then answered her questions.

 

then:

 

Her: I'm calling about a personal matter with MBNA

Me: Right

Her: It's about the outstanding amount

Me: There is no outstanding amount

Her: Have you made a payment to us

Me: No

Her: Have you cleared the outstanding amount with MBNA

Me: I have made an arrangement in F&F settlement with MBNA

Her: OK, Sorry to have wasted your time this morning :eek:

Me: (i just had to get it in again) Well, to be honest, you wasted my time all day yesterday as well

Her: How did we do that?

Me: Well, I get a card through the door saying you will be calling, so I wait in all day. Tell me, who do I send the invoice to for my lost time???

Her: to give her credit, she didnt miss a beat here. obv used to dealing with FB)MBNA, they are the ones that instructed us to send the letters out, so you would have to claim from them

Me: Ok, thank you ByeBye *click*

 

 

ahhh, the sweet sound of a DCA with its teeth yanked without anasthetic, go lick yer wounds RMA and never darken my telephones again

Funny.... I had a call like that a couple of weeks back, I said "Hello" and nobody replied but I could hear bits of a conversation and picked out the word "money" before it got cut off. So I did 1471 as I thought it might have been one of my partners friends and wanted to know who it was who was wasting my time (I was just leaving for work and rushed back into answer the phone) and found it was a mobile number...when I phoned it somebody just said "hello" so I presumed it was a private number...I just put the phone down without saying anything just to get my own back...but you got me wondering if it was a DCA:confused: Not to worry if it was though, once upon a time I would have quaked in fear at the thought of speaking to them on the phone, now I have so many great ideas from you guys how to make their lives a misery:lol:;)
