    • Thank-you dx, What you have written is certainly helpful to my understanding. The only thing I would say, what I found to be most worrying and led me to start this discussion is, I believe the judge did not merely admonish the defendant in the case in question, but used that point to dismiss the case in the claimants favour. To me, and I don't have your experience or knowledge, that is somewhat troubling. Again, the caveat being that we don't know exactly what went on but I think we can infer the reason for the judgement. Thank-you for your feedback. EDIT: I guess that the case I refer to is only one case and it may never happen again and the strategy not to appeal is still the best strategy even in this event, but I really did find the outcome of that case, not only extremely annoying but also worrying. Let's hope other judges are not quite so narrow minded and don't get fixated on one particular issue as FTMDave alluded to.

    • the claimant in their WS can refer to whatever previous CC judgements they like, as we do in our WS's, but CC judgements do not set a legal precedence. however, they do often refer to judgements like Bevis, those cases do created a precedence as they were court of appeal rulings. as for if the defendant, prior to the raising of a claim, dobbed themselves in as the driver in writing during any appeal to the PPC, i don't think we've seen one case whereby the claimant referred to such in their WS.. ?? but they certainly typically include said appeal letters in their exhibits. i certainly dont think it's a good idea to 'remind' them of such at the defence stage, even if the defendant did admit such in a written appeal. i would further go as far to say, that could be even more damaging to the whole case than a judge admonishing a defendant for not appealing to the PPC in the 1st place. it sort of blows the defendant out the water before the judge reads anything else. dx

    • 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 babydoll

Very strange they keep asking for your signaturefor a s78 request,!:confused: I sent my s78 to them about 18 months ago and they never asked for my signature,I know they sometimes do for a sar request but it is strange they asing you k for a signature fora s78 requst,as you say maybe it stallling tactic,I suppose you could send them an unsigned letter and point out that they they are happy enough to send other confidential information to your address without a signature or proof of identity and there is no legal requirement for a signature on a s78 request and why are they insisitng on a signature from you when other people gets responses without having a signature request!

Im happy to help with support and my own opinions but as i have no legal qualifications If I offer any thoughts to your problems please take it as from my life experience only and not of any legal standing. Always take further advice from the legal experts in your final action,

Hi sunflower thats for popping in

 

I know what you are saying ..this has been going on since 2008..i did send them a letter in 2008 telling them that a sig wasnt need and ..that they were happy to send statments to this address etc.. When i CCAed them i did it for my OH and me as we both had Cap1 cards ..They wanted both our sigs BUT all of a sudden they sold OH to lowells ..I CCAed lowells for OH and they sent one without asking for a sig!! there is a debate on weather its enforcable or not ..You hav prob seen the late 2005 CCAs!! I was paying Cap1 £1 per mth after me OH lost his job after being diagnoised with eplepisy and having to go on disability allowence..i sent them I and E and they let me pay £1 for a yr..After the yr was up ..they wrote to me again and asked for update of I and E i said no has my partner had recently became a mature uni student and his student finance was his and it wasnt his debt..they wrote back saying as money was still being payed i could continue to pay £1 for another yr ..Then after that yr they asked again ..told them no and they got freds on to me..

 

Why not just send a blank CCA ..?? they must be stalling me or surely they would send it

I think this answers 9/10 of your question

 

Many thanks

 

The only time I would worry is when proper/official papers arrive and even if they do there will be lots of help available on here

Most of the time DCA's are all p*** and wind, delusional to the point that they actually believe in what they send out :lol:

Try not to worry

Do you check your credit files, if so, might be worth a look as they seem to contain information on Land Registry Searches etc. now, and they may have incorrectly put something on his files.

 

If you do not check often, then I would let sleeping dogs lie until something more 'frightening' appears - ohh Haloween soon, HalloweenAnimGhost.gif

Anyone can pick up a dictionary but I just can't even imagine that an employee in a DCA office can actually read one :-D

NEVER telephone a DCA

If a DCA rings you, refuse to go through the security questions & hang up!

BD, have they actually shown proof of a valid consumer credit agreement? How long ago was the debt last paid? Without a valid CCA 1974 compliant agreement Lowells would not be able to force through a SD (as long as you challenge it!) If you pay ANYTHING you would reset the 6 year limitation rules

Because a lot of people will automatically pay !
