    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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 all,

 

I'm a few months into my relationship with CAG BUT alas have been on here for another purpose NOT to reclaim bank charges - until now !!!

 

Anyway I now wish to reclaim my charges from Natwest and am somewhat confused by a couple of things.

 

Firstly I've SAR'ed them and now received my 6 years worth of statements. I've already meticulously gone through them all and listed all the charges that this site tells me I can reclaim - I have ommitted all the monthly Advantage Gold Fee's, as instructed. I'm confident my list is accurate !

 

I've then downloaded a template claim form from here - the England complex charges one ! This is where I'm now stuck and would be really grateful of some help:

 

I've filled in the left hand section - date, the details of penalty and the charge amount. No priblems !

 

I've now moved accross to the right hand section and am struggling a little - I've filled in the interest date (as taken from my statements for the last day of each period) and the account balance that corresponds with this date BUT I'm 'snookered' with the final column - the one headed "Interest Charged".

 

I can't find any mention, on my statements, of the actual rates of interest charged, on my Advantage Gold account ? All of my claim is within the period July 2002 and March 2006 - can anyone please, please help me to locate the interest rates for this period ?

 

Once I have the above information do I enter the rate as a monthly OR yearly figure in the "Interest Charged" column ?

 

Finally what do I enter in the "Interst Free Overdraft" column - I had no element of interest free (I don't think, anyway ?) so do I just enter 0 all the way down this ?

 

Many, many thanks and any advise from you seasoned Natwest claimers would be very, very much appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

R

 

PS Whats the latest on the 'stay' regarding the claiming of charges - do I hold fire OR get my claim in ASAP ? Thanks again.

Hi RB

 

"Interest charged" is just the amount of interest read off the statement at the interest date - the spreadsheet doesn't use the interest rate but estimates the proportion of the interest charged that is attributable to bank charges rather than your legitimate overdraft.

 

In the "Interest Free" column just put £0.

 

No news on the OFT case yet. Start your claim off though then you will be in the "queue"

Ahhhhh............. thanks Steven.

 

So I've done the worst bit then - the reest is actually quite simple !

 

So when I send this off I guess I send the spreadsheet and a covering letter ? The 3rd sheet, showing the 8% interest rate, is just in case of a later court case then, is it ?

 

Can you point me in the right direction fo a possible template letter ?

 

Do I send this to my local branch or to a central address ?

 

Sory to ask so many questions and again, mant thanks afor your help, Steven,

 

Regards,

 

R

Hi All,

 

Thanks for all advise, to date.

 

Sent my 6 years charges claim, to Natwest, and I've now received their reply (as expected) basically telling me about the current test case and needless to say whilst the stay remains in place my claim will simply be held pending the result !

 

In my letter, however, I also added:

 

"I request that you deal with my case now rather than once the test case has ended as I rely, partly, on benefits for my income and the Social Security Administration Act 1992 says that charges should not be taken from income related benefits.

I request that you deal with my case now rather than once the test case has ended as I am currently experiencing financial difficulties due to disability and the FSA waiver states that you should continue to deal with hardship cases."

Can anyone please offer any guidance / a possible template for my reply OR is it really now just a case of sit and wait ? Does the above make any difference ?

 

Thanks,

 

R
