    • Hi everyone, Thanks for the responses. Just a few follow up questions in light of what's been said:   If I dont appeal to PPM, who can I appeal to?   Why should the PCN been attached to the windscreen? Is this written in law?   I assumed the document I had received was the NTK, if this is not the case, what does a NTK look like?   Regarding the compliance with the Protection of Freedoms Act, could the "period" of parking not be argued either way? The legislation doesnt state it must have a start/end time of parking, which I assumed an ANPR camera would pick up if it had one. Is 4 minutes not technically enough to show the vehicle was parked?    Thanks !

    • Will get them done asap My job changes week to week so at the time I didn’t know. 
    • You will probably get a couple more reminders followed by further demands fro unregulated debt collectors with even increasing amounts to pay. They are all designed to scare you into paying.  Don't. It's a scam site and they do not know who was driving and they know the keeper is not liable to pay the PCN. Also the shop was closed so they have no legitimate interest in keeping the car park clear. So to charge £100 is a penalty as there is no legitimate interest which means that the case would be thrown out if it went to Court.  Keep your money in your wallet and be prepared to ignore all their letters and threats. Doubtful they would go to Court since a lot more people would not pay when they heard  MET lost in Court. However they may just send you a Letter of Claim to test your resolve.  If yoy get one of those, come back to us and we will advise a snotty letter to send them.  You probably already have, but take a look through some of our past Met PCNs to see how they are doing.
    • Hello, been a while since I posted on here, really hoping for the same support an advice I received last time :-) Long, long story for us, but basically through bad choices, bad luck and bad advice ended up in an IVA in 2016. The accounts involved all defaulted, to be expected. In 2018, I got contacted by an 'independent advisor' advising me that I shouldn't be in an IVA, that it wasn't the solution for our circumstances and that they would guide us through the process of leaving the IVA and finding a better solution. I feel very stupid for taking this persons advice, and feel they prey on vulnerable people for their own financial gain (it ended with us paying our IVA monthly contribution to them)-long and short of it our IVA failed in 2018. At the same time the IVA failed we also had our shared ownership property voluntarily repossessed (to say this was an incredibly stressful time would be an understatement!) When we moved to our new (rented) property in August 2018, I was aware that creditors would start contacting us from the IVA failure. I got advice from another help website and started sending off SARs and CCAs request letters. I was advised not to bury my head and update our address etc and tackle each company as they came along. Initially there was quite a lot of correspondence, and I still get a daily missed call from PRA group (and the occasional letter from them), but not much else. However, yesterday i had a letter through from Lowell (and one from Capital One) advising that they had bought my debt and would like to speak with me regarding the account. There will be several.of these through our door i suspect, as we did have several accounts with Capital One. Capital One have written to us with regular statements over the last 5 years, and my last communication with them was to advise of of our new address (June 2019), I also note that all of these accounts received a small payment in Jan2019 (i'm assuming the funds from the failed IVA pot). Really sorry for the long long post, but just thought id give (some of) the background for context.... I guess my question at the moment is.....how do I respond to Lowell...do I wait for the inevitable other letters to arrive then deal with them all together or individually...? Do I send them a CCA?  Many thanks

    • 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.

can anyone help explain the law in terms of:

 

- a certificated bailiff's powers to direct someone else to carry out levy (over a phone)

- the law wrt levy on a shared driveway

- the law wrt to levy or move another vehicle to get access to another - the bailiff mentioned prima facia or something - I saw you get into that car, so I see it as yours, so I see it as mine

 

thx

Guest Screw The Bailiff

No, a bailiff cannot levy on goods over the phone, he must have gained entry to the property and come into physical contact with the goods.

 

Yes a bailiff can levy on private land, provided it doesn't deprive the land owner his use and enjoyment of that land e.g. by clamping a car at the exit of a shared driveway.

 

Prima facie means at first sight. It means a bailiff can levy on goods believing it belongs to the debtor unless evidence to the contrary arises. Bailiffs need to excercise care becasue if goodas or a vehicle is siezed and it does not belong to the debtor then the owner is entitled to reclaim his losses from the authority that instructed the bailiff.

 

Yes a bailiff can move things around to levy on goods. He cannot cause damage to goods.

just checked the bailiff / director of newlyn - is a director/secretary of:

 

Boongate Motor Company Limited

Newlyn Group Holdings Limited

Boongate Kia Services Limited

Peterborough Hyundai Limited

Newlyn Plc

Murmac Builders Limited

Murmac Construction and Developments Limited

Brush & Graphics Limited

Point Two Four Limited

Typehome Limited

Anncombe Limited

Silverdene Limited

 

hmmmmm... it appears he sells cars, builds homes, paints a picture then visits them as a bailiff

 

I wonder if he's flogging, to one of his own companies, the things he repossess - if so he could be in deep do do

question

if all the major items in the house have been purchased by a partner and the partner has receipts for the goods in there name dose that mean they are exempt from the bailiff ? TV Computer snooker table weight training equipment.

yes - a response to my complaint was received, but for some reason it was not a response to my complaint - just quoted hearsay - and contained a page and a half on the legalities of pcn's and the process they use. The parking clerk does love his job.

 

They did not answer my complaint, other than confirm to me that bailiff have lied to council wrt what happened, so harrow are claiming that they acted legally and bailiff were free to charge what they wanted...

 

however, it appears bailiff are claiming that the certficated bailiff aka dodgy car sales director came to my property, clamped my car, then legally went to off to another site - great multi-taskers these bailiffs are - then returned to mine to collect payment as you do while the police, clamper and myself waited for him - all rubbush - and looks like it's getting dirty

Dear Newlyn Plc / Newlyn Plc Solicitors - Sagem?,

 

I understand from Northampton Court that you are now looking directly at the CAG forums since my Form 4 against your director was submitted at the beginning of March.

 

Please understand that this is a place for consumers - not solicitors

 

I understand that if ze Director loses his certification you may not be able to operate in the market place and may lose significant contracts. That would be super!!!

 

Regards

For anyone who is interested, as an update, I sent a Form 4 (after 360 days!) to Northampton Court. 14 days have just elapsed and I asked the court why I had not received a response.

I have been told that Newlyn's slimey solicitor's asked for an extension until mid April so that they could investigate the Consumer Action Group's forums and posts. Can anyone help advise what they are up to, if this topic is somewhat illegal in anyway and what the outcomes of the form 4 could be?

Even though a members forum Newlyn & their mates do understand the law of copyright don't they?:D Also can't imagine what good they think investigating CAG will do.

 

IMHO they could be opening a can of worms for themselves in that the court may allow members to produce 'evidence' from the site to counter any argument Newlyn produce.................... & if I'm not mistaken any & all alleged misdemeanour's past or present have been exposed on this site & could/would be used against them

Dear Harrow Observer,

 

This is the post that you should investigate.

 

I, along with many others, especially CAG users look forward to your story :D

 

Many thanks,

I've drafted another Form 4 against them for perverting the cause of justice - a feeble attempt by the bailiff to waste the court's time? It's been over a blinkin year, and i dunno how they'll try and get out of the failure to respond to two SAR's!!!

 

Seeing that CAG is a private / members-only website for consumers, they would look quite stupid if all they could muster up was a request to look at a members-only website - I suppose it's the solicitor's pulling the fast one on the bailiff - i bet the stupid bailiff has authorised the solictior to sit still and plough through 1000's of forum posts - at £250 per hour - clever clever solicitor!

I was in direct contact with the leader of the council, who promised he would investigate personally - even left me an apologetic voice mail

He obviously has no power and heas been shut up.

I'm waiting to see if the Form4 complaint will resolve issues - but that has been delayed.

After the form 4 result i will write to the LGO and the DP people - should i not wait and just attempt to enforce?

Thanks

I also wrote to the court in complaint as a member of the public when I heard that the bailiff impersonator wanted to become a certificated bailiff in June/July08- not sure if he ever did, but not at that court, and HMCS has no record of a certificate being given

I also won an IPCC appeal against the police officers :D but nothing else... what can i do - sue the police?

 

Yes you can, but in my opinion you should only do that if you can employ a specialist solicitor, someone like Chris Topping, who has the experience to tell you whether you have a chance of winning or not. I don't normally recommend people openly, because I risk having the post deleted, but if you are anywhere in the north-west that is the guy to use. You can't just use anyone, and it would be a mistake to try to do it yourself. Find someone has been recommended and talk to them, you have nothing to lose.

I agree Chris Topping is an excellent choice............also you don't have to live in the NW to engage him

 

He practices at Jackson Canter Solicitors, Liverpool
