    • Please accept my apologies for the delayed update, but i have been trawling through emails for supporting evidence, you see we are in the consultation phase and there will be three meetings during the process. So as i have said  my role is at risk due to the scoring and mine being low. As explained i never received my report as my line manager left during December and i was on leave. So i was not afforded any meeting, i received no feedback at all, so how am i meant to know any areas to improve or to attain a higher grade. So with this in mind i gathered my supporting evidence, i found the email from my then line manager and the objectives that he set out and we agreed.   I then supplied 20 emails that  showed that not only did i reach the targets, i smashed them, highlighting areas that i had saved the company a considerable amount of money, idented issues  implemented process and solutions with ongoing support. All emails are verified and prove that i should have received the highest possible grade going by their criteria. I also included the email from HR when i challenged  the score and they replied with " the outgoing manager supplied thorough feedback to the incoming interim manager who should have provided this (this was never received, and report i received was blank with just a score. Highlighted was the email from HR stating " a two is not a concerning grade"  well clearly it is as less than a month later it is what was used to decide i was at risk. I have supplied this information to the line manager and the external HR rep that was on the call as i have 48 hours to supply this. Had i had a proper and fair review like everyone else had then i would have been able to provide this evidence when he issued the score, he could not argue with the sheer volume of evidence that i had. This proves what was said to me when i took this position, " there was some politics in me getting the role, their line manager had promised the role to one of his guys, they cant really do anything but watch your back" He should not have promised this anyway as two interviews were required in the process *which i sat) so i earned the right to the role. This was because the three of them knew there was a lot that would be uncovered and they wanted it covering, i started to see this after two weeks, had i not said anything then it would have looked as though i was incompetent or stupid. I did try to work with them on this to remedy but sadly they went the other rout instead.    
    • He'll be asking Truss for advice and help next ... or maybe go straight to a lettuce He already asked Swella How do you survive all those breaches of ministerial code etc She is rumored to have replied - dunno - if the positions were reversed, I'd have sacked me in without a seconds thought
    • Dear Stu. I have been very annoyed that they put this fee on my account right now, as you said the court might rule that i have to pay it further on. This sounds like a dodgy practice. Below is what the account manager sent to me when i asked her why this was getting added to my account right now. Is this legal what they are doing i.e. pre-empting the judges decision it seems. 'Thank you for the email.  The court fees have been added to your account as you have not vacated the property. If the court decide that the landlord is not able to recoup the costs, we would remove the charge from your account.  At present, the court costs have not been deducted from the payment you made towards the rent.'
    • Yay!! Plan to submit tomorrow. Thanks for all the support. I'm so out of my comfort zone. Will keep thread updated and continue reading. Just want them gone!

    • 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.

This to all 'experienced advicers' on CAG,

 

Would just like to mention that a number of us (no names mentioned) have recently been receiving PM's from so called 'newbies' asking for certain information about our own cases with DCA's, information about certain companies and certain CCA/S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) regulations etc etc. By the simple nature of these PM's, it is our belief that these 'newbies' could well be MIB - just be on your guard.

Just hate every DCA out there

This is yet another reason why you should not deal with people via PM and keep things on the open forum. If you do receive PM's from newbies I would recommend that you inform them to post on the open forum. DCA's and those who are only here to disrupt are usually very quickly exposed.

HAVE YOU BEEN TREATED UNFAIRLY BY CREDITORS OR DCA's?

Anyway, I have PM and just hope all goes well .... a charge has been put on my property ...my worries is whether they will force me to sell house to repay debt ..lost and confused and highly stress out ..

I've had a few possible candidates, but have kept my replies nice and vague...

 

There's not much they could do to me anyway, to be honest.... so I don't know what they're hoping to achieve. Bezzy mates maybe ?:D

 

Poor things probably don't have any decent friends which is one of the reasons they may be coming here. It must be like a beggar looking in through a window of a family/friendly home at xmas :-|

This is worrying as I have put some quite specific information on the forums here when Ive asked for help!

Advice given is my opinion only, I am not a legal or financial expert (far from it).

Oooh ... no surprise to me ... 2 newbies same week PMed me about nothing in particular ... never opened them, either, but kept them in the inbox for later reference ... so I now have a rule. I won't open PMs unless they are from admin/mods or users been on here a while.

 

MONX. DCAs/creditors always watch this site ... I know for a fact 2 of mine have. Because of certain events which took place straight afterwards. ;)

I think I will BUMP this one up as it is worth saying again so that newbies are aware of a practice that may happen on CAG. If you do receive anything of this nature or are PM'd for advice, suggest that they post their issue on the open forum or PM Site Team with the contents of the PM(bit the forward button and the message will be sent with it).

This new and rather sinister activity from DCAs doesn't surprise me one bit. Thanks for warning us :)

 

edit: now that you mention it, I have noticed some posts from new users which seem to have similar structure, tone and titles...including attempts to get other users to share details of their specific cases.

No matter who they are or what they do or dont know - they are still powerless to obtain money off you unless via a county court smile.gif

 

Yes but a certain Lowlife DCA did infact produce a complete print off of a thread from this site in a court action against one of our members. Thats why I keep my details vague in any posts now.

Of course I will pay you everything you say I owe with no proof.

Oooh Look....Flying Pigs

Not sure how this would be to their advantage though... unless it was another very poor last ditch attempt to intimidate :-?.
