    • Your page numbers should run through your WX and exhibits so im concerned its page x of 9.
    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.

    • 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 have today sent off the prelim letter requesting a total of £2991.33 back in charges.

 

Not sure if this will help but all my previous letters and correspondence have been replied to very quickly so I thought this contact may come in useful to others.

One quick question with regards to threads. I started one on Sunday evening which is now two pages away on this forum. DO I need to start a new one with each development or just update my old one? (Yes, I am blonde!)

 

And another:- There has been mention of overdrafts having to be paid back when charges are claimed. Is this also the case with loans? I have a fairly large loan with HSBC which I have never missed a payment on, can they make me pay this money back if I succeed?

 

Huge thanks

I also sent letters to Ian Sheppard, as thats who responded to my DPA letter.

So glad I am not the only one...

As to threads, I think they like you to update one thread, or it all gets huge, plus everyone can see your progress, (which is a real confidence boost when you read a nervous start right through to a full pay out!)

(Your thread will move up to the start as you add a new post to it)

 

As to overdrafts and loans...don't know, there are lots of banks that close accounts, HSBC so far don't seem to!

I'll stick to one thread then!

 

I'm not too bothered if HSBC closes my account as I've managed to open another one with Nat West as a stand by. My only real concern is if they request my loan back in full as I only took it out last year and there would be no way of paying it all back. I have made every payment on time and never missed one, does anyone know if they can force me to repay my loan back even if they close my account?

 

Many thanks

Sorry to pester guys but this has left me wondering for ages and I'm sure somebody out there must be in the same situation as I am.

 

Q - There has been mention of overdrafts having to be paid back when charges are claimed. I also see that some people have had their settlement money taken to pay off their loans. I have a fairly large loan with HSBC which I have never missed a payment on, can they make me pay this money back if I succeed rather than them send me a big fat cheque?

 

Much Appreciated

I am just having a look on the money claim form, (not that I have any reason to submit it yet) and where it asks for the defendants address details I am unsure which one to put there. Do I use the correspondence address which I have previously used, (Coventry) or do I use HSBC's head office details? Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

dont worry about this, the people who have had problems of this type have had a managed loan, which is to say that its an arrangement with the bank to pay back moeny they are owed for defaulting on an account (or getting way behind with payments on an ordinary loan)

 

so if you have paid all your installments on time and have had no problems with the bank, dont fret, they cant do anything about your loan as it would be breach of contract on their part to cut short the loan period

Dies anyone have an idea of the time scale involved with HSCB parting with their cash? Are we talking weeks/months after settlement? Anyone out there actually won and received their money? Not that I'm being over confident or anything, just planning on when I can book a holiday courtesy of HSBC!

I have just contacted HSBC this morning to check my balance with tele banking. Instead of giving me my balance I was transferred to their call centre and offered a loan to pay off my credit card, (small amount, under £200) my loan and my overdraft. When I declined this I was then asked if I would like to upgrade my current account to a Premier?? This costs £9.99 per month. They are throwing all they can at me. Do you think its because they are trying to be nice or because they will have more to claim back from me when they close my account!!! Anyhow, I told them to keep the lost, as soon as they pay my charges back I'm changing to my parachute account with NatWest who I have no doubt will charge just as much as HBSC!!

 

Also no response to my Prelim although they do have until Monday to reply. My first letter was dated 3rd July although they will not have received it until at least the 4th. Does anyone think I sould send the LBA two weeks from the 3rd or the 4th or allow 14 working days??

 

Thanks

No offer as yet, (hoping and praying). Saw your post in another thread about your offer and whether or not to take it due to court cases been thrown out. Not sure what I would do if I received a similar offer to yours. Do you take it and run or get caught out and lose the cash due to a precedent been set by the higher court case! Dilema. On principle I would hold out for the full amount but thats easy for me to say now with no offer. Are you declining their offer Hedgehog and who did your offer come from? Was it Ian Shepherd as I know we sent our Prelims to the same guy? Good luck

Just had a letter today from the ever competent Ian Shepherd who apologises for the delay in responding and tells me that they have ordered 6 years of statements for my account and credit card as I had not requested them. I received all these ages ago after requesting them initially. I have heard of this happening on other threads before and reckon its another stalling tactic. Shall I go ahead and send the LBA on Tuesday which is when the 14 days are up?

 

Has anyone actually received a 2nd lot of statements after receiving one of these letters?

 

Many thanks

Well, as expected no response (sensible response) from the delightful Mr Shepherd to my prelim letter. I sent the LBA off Tuesday 18th July so shall sit tight now and wait and see what other stalling tactics they can come up with.

Mr Shepherd has lived up to expectations and kindly delivered me a second batch of duplicate statements for the last six years on my account. I requested these yonks ago and received them already in June. They must be sat around in the office twiddling their thumbs! Has anyone else received these also? Surely they can easily afford to pay us anti HSBC's all our charges back as money is obviously no object with printing costs. Sorry Mr Posty but this time was not my fault!!! Searched through the lot and no offer of a refund. Bugger!

Yes, I too recieved a second set of statements this week, (but I am that suspicious of them I have checked them against the original!!!) And yes I too recieved the letter from Ian Sheppard stating that he would send all for all accounts plus my credit card...(even though I don't have a credit card with them!)

Have you not had an offer yet? I had one last week for £2000, I added a line in my LBA to say thankyou, will accept as partial payment only...haven't had any money added to my account though!!

 

I send all my main letters by special delivery...cost £4.10 but they have to sign individually for each of these recieved (hassle for them) and there is no denying that they gott the letter on a different date!
