    • The address is only a paper address with no actual manned staff address. Police have rang me this morning and taken some more information including the details of the driver who they say they will contact and interview.  They are also putting in a formal request to Shiply to get the couriers driving license and biometric information held on file. IF anyone else has been in the same position with this particular courier, please please let me know and we can perhaps go down the strength in numbers route xx
    • Heres a point, while we wait for @theoldrouge to condemn rather than promote and support right wing bigots spouting genuine and clear monstrous antisemitic rhetoric ... Isn't it actually specifically unlawful to promote violence against politicians on top of laws to criminalise such things? ... As is reported happening in these closed facebook groups run by Tory staff and where a Tory police minister and the Tory London mayor candidate are members and post?   .. or do the Tories (seemingly like tor) only promote laws for protecting the hate spouting hard right ?   "“Some of these (Tory facebook groups) posts constitute the most appalling racism and I would urge the Conservative Party to swiftly distance itself from these hate-filled groups and urgently investigate what role any Conservative politicians and officials have played within them. “Susan Hall and the Tory MPs who have belonged to these groups need to come out and explain why – and to denounce the content they have tacitly endorsed by their membership.” "Reporters found widespread racism and Islamophobia as well as conspiracy theories and celebrations of criminal damage on the pages, including sharing the white supremacist slogan and antisemitic videos.

    • Morning dx and thank you for your message.   With regards to your comment about them not needing to produce the deed, the additional directions ordered by the judge included 'a copy of any assignment o the debt or agreement relied upon'  so that is why I thought that point was relevant?
    • Sorry for the long post but I don't want to miss out any relevant information: My wife bought a car from Trade Centre UK and have been having nothing but trouble with it. Unfortunately we paid of the finance used to buy the car as we weren't expecting this much trouble with the car as we we though we would have protection as buying from a dealer. We are wondering if we can still reject the vehicle since the finance plan has been paid off. Timeline is as follows: 13/12/2023 -15/12/2023 Bought car from Trade Centre UK for £10548 £2000 deposit paid on credit card on 13/12/2023 £8548 on finance from Moneybarn (arranged through Trade Centre UK). picked up car on 15/12/2023 Also bought lifetime warranty for £50/month 25/12/2023 Engine Management Light comes on. The AA called out and diagnosed the following error codes: P0133 - Lambda sensor (bank 1, sensor 1) Oxygen Sensor. Error Message : Slow reaction. Error sporadic P0135 - Lambda sensor heat. circ.(bank1,sensor1) Oxygen Sensor. Error Message : Component defective Due to it being Christmas took a few days to get through to them but they booked me in for 28/12/2023 to run their own diagnostics. 28/12/2023 Took car in to Trade Centre so could check the car – They agreed it was the Oxygen Sensor and Booked me in for repair on 30/01/2024. I was told they had no earlier slots, and I would be fine to carry on driving car when I said I was afraid of problem worse. During diagnosing the problem, they reset the Engine Management Light. During drive home light comes back on. 29/12/2023 - 29/01/2024 I carry on driving the car but closer to the date, engine goes to reduced power every now and again – not being a mechanic I presumed that this was due to above fault. 20/01/2024 Not expecting any more problems paid off the finance on the car using personal loan from bank with lower interest rate. 30/01/2024 Trade Centre replace to O2 sensor (They also take it on a roughly 60mile road trip which seems a bit excessive to me – I can’t prove this as something prompted me take a picture of milage when I handed car in but I forgot take one on collection – only remembered next day.) 06/02/2024 Engine goes in reduced power mode again and engine management light comes on – Thinking the Trade centre’s 28 day warranty period was over I booked the car the into local garage for the next day to get problem fixed under the lifetime warranty package. Fault seems to clear after engine was switched off. 07/02/2024 In the Morning, I take it to local garage who say as the light gone off – the warranty company is unlikely to cover the cost of the repair or diagnostics and recommend I contact them when the light comes back on. In the evening the light comes back on and luckily I manage to get it back to the garage just before it shuts for the day. 08/02/2024 The Garage sends me a diagnostics video showing a lot error codes been picked up by their diagnostics machine including codes for Oxygen sensor and Nox Sensors, Accelerator pedal and several more. Video also shows EGR Hose not connected to the intake manifold properly, they believed this was confusing the onboard system as it is unlikely this many sensors would trigger at same the time but they couldn’t be certain until they repaired the hose. 13/02/2024 Finally get the car back as it took a while to get approval and payment for the repairs from the Warranty company. Garage told me to keep an eye the car as errors had cleared with the hose but couldn’t 100% certain that’s what caused the problem. 06/03/2024 Engine management light comes on again. Fed up I go into Trade Centre as I was just around the corner when it happened and asked them how to reject the car or have the problem fixed. They insist that as it’s over 28 days I need to get the car fixed under the warranty package I purchased and they could no longer fix the car as it was over 28 days. When I tried telling them it appeared to be the same or related problem they said they couldn’t help as I hadn’t contacted them earlier. I asked them if they were willing to connect the car to the diagnostics machine and tell me what the problem was, as a goodwill gesture, which he agreed to do and took the car to the back He came back around 30 minutes later and said they took a look at the sensor they replaced previously and there was nothing wrong with it and engine management light went off when they removed the sensor to check it. When I asked what the error code he couldn’t give me an exact fault but the said it one of the problems I told him earlier (Accelerator pedal). I have this visit audio recorded on my phone – I informed the reps I was recording several times. As the light wasn’t on, local garage couldn’t book me for a repair under warranty. 07/03/2024 Light came on so managed to book back into local garage for the 12/03/2024 Whilst waiting to take car into garage, I borrowed a OBD sensor and scanned for errors on the car. This showed the following errors: P11BE – Manufacturer specific code (Google showed this to be NOX sensor) P0133 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor B1 S1: Response too Slow 12/03/2024 Took car to local garage and the confirmed the above errors. This leads me to believe that either Trade Centre UK reps lied and just reset the light or just didn’t check properly (Obviously I am unable to prove this) 22/03/2024 Finally got the car back as according to garage, the warranty company took a long to time to pay for the repairs 28/04/2024 Engine management Light has come back on. Using the borrowed OBD scanner I am getting the following codes: P0133 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor B1 S1: Response too Slow P2138 - Accelerator Position Sensors (G79) / (G185): Implausible Correlation I have not yet booked into a garage as I wanted to see what my rights are in terms of rejecting the car as to me the faults seem related. I can’t keep using taxi or train to get to work every time the car goes into the garage as it is getting very expensive. Am I right in thinking that they have used up their chance to repair when they conducted the repair end of January or when they refused to repair it in February ? If I am still able to reject the vehicle could you point to any sample letters or emails I can use. Thankyou for your advice on my next steps.

    • 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 checked my copies of my original Applications for Credit/Loans and have a found a few where "I DID NOT TICK the BOX" requesting PPI.

Has anybody made a succesful claim on this issue? and what are the chances of a succesful claim?

Hi

Norwich 1, I think you may have a case, can you post this information, remove first any personal info.

I am sure you will get advice from a member with experience on PPI.

Hi Norwich1, i am in the same situation with cap one, i have asked them to supply me with credit agreement showing i signed for it. They sent me an agreement with no signature or tick in ppi bow, so i will now be writting to them for a refund. Good luck with your claim. If you look in the forum 'notes for ppi claimants' you will find lots of help there.

O K Old Andrew

I have 2 copies of Applications for Credit Cards 1 for Aqua-Halifax the other for Barclaycard.

I have signed both Applications, on both forms they ask me to "Tick the Box" if i require PPI.

On both forms it clearly shows that I have NOT ticked the Box.

Therefor I common sense tells me I did not request or agree to PPI.

BUT the banks have no common sense or decency, black looks white to them and blank boxes look ticked.

What are my chances if I took them to Court over thiany help or advice appreciated.

Has any one made a claim on this issue?

Amanni

I have written 3 letters to Halifax and have received NO RESPONSE WHAT SO EVER

Hi

You have every chance of winning, look at the ppi form, do you know the total cost to you for these charges, or will you have to do a SAR, then there will be recovery of interest paid.

 

Regards

Hi Andy

I know the total charges imposed by Barclays

Dont know charges imposed by Aqua around £50-£60 maybe, not worth the trouble.

I have written 3 letters to Aqua and have received NO RESPONSE WHAT SO EVER

In fact I've put aclaim at court for £100 just to seewhat happens. So far they have acknowleged the claim and intend to enter a defence. At lease they reply to letters from the Court. I'm exempt from paying court fees

I Understand the 8% interest.

What is (I think its called) Contractable interest or something. Can I claim that?, if so how do I work that out.

Hello Norwich,

 

Glad to see you don't mess around:p Good for you.

 

Its great they only ignore you before and when the get the N1, you have made them have to sit up and take attention.:grin:

 

Just reading your thread, if you have not ticked the box, they should not have applied ppi to your accounts and you have every right to have it back, plus the interest. Did you mention that the documents you received were application forms:wink:

 

Contractual interest is claiming back interest at the contractual interest that they charged you, ie 16.9%. 24.9%, you may find the rate on your statements. As you already now the court will allow the 8%. If you have issued the N1 via the court, you may now not be able to ask the court for this, but if the company try to settle before the court date, ask for it:grin:

 

Good luck and keep us posted:grin:

Hi HHNF

Yes both Appliacation forms, both Boxes not ticked.

So I can claim Contractual interest at 16.9% is that right?

What is the 24.9% you have mentioned.

The claim I have at court at the moment is 'my test case' just to find out what happens on this issue but I think I cocked it up from the start, as I do not know the amount to claim as I have not got my statements to check the amount, it is probably for only for around £50 or so.

I claimed for an undisclosed amount.

The mistake I made was: instead of under "Value" where I SHOULD have put "under £5,000 I left this blank, I put in "Amount claimed"

£100 which I should have left blank.

The Defendants have acknowledged the claim and say they are going to defened. I'm not bovver'd about it, as I am using this small sprat as a 'test case' to catch a much bigger fish.

Will keep you informed of developments in due course.

Hiya Norwich,

 

As you say, you can argue regarding the value, when the time comes:D and even if things go pearshaped, you can use it as a learning curve for the bigger fish:D

 

As regarding the contractual interest, you can ask, it does not mean you will get, you need to find out what the rate was. I only used 16.9% and 24.9% as examples. Some companies will pay it and others will argue the toss. The court would allow 8% if the case was successful.

 

Have you worked these figures out on a spreadsheet yet:D

Hi HHNF

Thanks for info on contractual interest. I am happy getting the PPI refunded and 8% but will check it out before the next court claim.

At the moment I'm waiting for responses to letters sent.

I require the T/Cs for PPI policies which the bankers will not send me. I have mislayed/lost or may even not received the originals in the first place.

I've tried Data Protection Act and CCA sec 78 but the bankers say they are not obliged to send me copies of the Policies under these Acts.

I've been told to cotact the actual Insurance Companies, BUT the Post Office tells me the Post Code for Barclays Insurance, Dublin does not exist.

I also want the address to write to for Nowich Union Inurance for the policy regaurding a Littlewoods Credit Card which of course is also a 'Barclaycard'. Can you help with these addresses please.

Of Course if all reasonable negotiations fail; Yo Ho Yo Ho its off to court we go (again).
