    • 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.

    • 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.

Hi Lisa,

 

I`m no expert, but from what I gather, they are accepting £1 as part payment towards her monthly payment. As she is not paying the full monthly payment, she will receive charges in the way of missed/late payment charges.

 

This will have the result of knocking up the balance and also knocking up the interest each month.

 

What is the minimum monthly payment on the statement?

 

 

 

N.P

right the original letter u sent them did u say u are willing to pay £1.00 a month with certain conditions?

 

If so this is good as it shows they are accepting the £1 with the conditions.

Hi Lisa,

 

Soooo, Statements always use the words `paid with thanks`, it`s probably just automatic. The £12 looks like a charge for the Statement, from them, and obviously the interest is exactly that.

This may have been mentioned in this thread ... as only just seen it, NDR etc ... But NDR is Littlewoods. Same address, same building in Liverpool. I still don't understand how NDR, and the other 'in-house' DCA's get away with it as they are misleadingly stating they are external to the companies concerned. Given most of their opening letters begin 'your debt has been passed to us by our client Littlewoods/Kays/SDFS' ... same desk, same office.

 

If now you want to shoot me for saying something everyone already knew in this thread ... :D But not everyone does.

Going off the wording, I wouldn`t say she offered any conditions.

 

It`s sounds more like Lisa explained why she could only afford £1.

yep as paul has said b4 this is not valid.

 

They are acceptig the payments and if they do take you to court they wont get far as they have nothing really to go on. the courts will more than likely throw it out an award your mum costs etc.

 

Also the DN is full of charges which i have been old is not allowed.

You could ask them to justify the Default Notice.

 

I would say say, they are accepting the £1 as part payment, but you are still not satisfying the monthly minimum payments based upto the agreement.

 

I`m not sure how to challenge this as they have a CCA. Perhaps a SAR would reveal some charges which could lower the balance.

 

Does this account have PPI at all?

 

Anyone else?

They are being like this cause u are not jumping when they demand u do.

 

Look at it this way if they was to want blood outta a stone it will take them forever. They want there money now and how they want it paid. Now your mum cant afford the amount they want her to pay and she is not rolling over to there games.

 

So as she is not playing ball they are getting in to a tantrum and are trying to assert some athority. In a way that they think she will give them there money.

 

Dont give in they cant have anymore money than she can afford.
