    • Just a little something for consideration When a card is compromised, the replacements can be set up to automatically allow or manually re-add, old recurring transactions. The card issuer may ask you to confirm legitimate transactions which they would effectively 'migrate' to the new card Some do - some don't. Some staff on some cards seem to be entirely unaware/uncaring about this. Some card issuers expect you to sort it all out manually.   BUT if the leak is an ongoing lyca leakas it seems - as soon as you or your CC supplier give it to lyca/the leak source - compromised again     A note on security DONT use the same email or phone number for your banking as you do for sims etc. Although a bank eg santander leak would compromise this Infp seems to suggest that single/compromised multi factor authentication customers are priority targets, with more robustly secure cards being hit by 0.00 tests first Consider that the email address is one of the OTP recieving options AND one of the OTP security checks prior to sending the OTP - with the phone number being another So if they've got your card and email (same email for banking and end contact) - and you aren't forcing a phone OTP - you are compromised.  
    • Thanks for posting up the back of the NTK. The good news s that as it does not comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act, it means that you are not liable for the charge as the keeper as I explained in a previous post.  The PC fails for two reasons. The first is that it does not specify the period of parking. All it does is list the arrival and departure times of your car. Obviously that does not include the time taken to drive to the car parking space, manoeuvre the car into the space and later drive from the space to the exit. Nor does their times include things like getting kids disabled people out of and into the car as well as things like returning the trolley whilst still being parked. All of which can add a fair bit of time to the parking period which can then be subtracted from their ANPR times and makes your actual parking time a lot shorter than 118 minutes they seem to think it is. The second reason is that they failed to ask the keeper to pay Schedule 4 Section 9 [2][e]  (e)state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper— (i)to pay the unpaid parking charges You as keeper are now in the clear which is a good reason for you to contact Sainsbury  stating that you are being pursued as the keeper when you are not liable under the Act as well as the oher things I suggested in my previous post. If you don't get it cancelled with Sainsbury this could drag on for months with endless letters unlawfully pushing the price up to scare you into paying.  
    • Brilliant! That's great to hear and honestly pleased I'm wrong, my advice was out of concern. I checked some of your previous posts last night and you've been giving great advice to others at times. Bringing a claim can be serious (counter-claims etc) and it didn't appear you were knowledgeable based on posts so far. Far from an expert myself, just interested and will try to help. I'll sit on the sidelines, best of luck with the claim!
    • Thank you so much for the advice  I will try and up my savings to £500 for the next 6 months. Although I do still have an uphill battle, I feel more able to deal with it.  I hope my experience with the cifas marker helps someone else who finds themselves in that quite horrible situation. It is a huge weight off my shoulders getting it removed.

    • 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.

If anyone wishes to continue a discussion on food quality, please advise what thread is called, and I shall respond. Best of luck Wop/ag.

PS. Can't get on to thread"McDonalds issue in the UK" can anyone advise?

Parking Charges in McDonalds Redditch

 

Whilst away on my holidays, my company recieved a £50 parking fine and paid as it stated 14 days terms otherwise it would increase to £100. I will need to repay my company the payment but wondered if anyone has been refunded the charge ever.

I will be writing to complain to both MET and Mcd's but not sure if this will bring any joy. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Regards

Del

Why?

 

If your company has paid a [problem] invoice, why should you have to repay them?

 

I assume that you have a company-provided or lease car. I would very carefully check the wording to see if they can actually pass on the cost - if it uses the words parking fine or penalty charge, then they can go whistle - I don't see how you are responsible for their stupidity.

Hi Delboyzmail,

Pity your company has been stupid enough to pay fine but think there is no chance of having it refunded.They paid the fine so they should stand the loss.

Remember, it is an INVOICE not a FINE. Your contact may well state they can pay fines for you and charge you through your wages, but this is a [problem] invoice and therefore they do not have any authority to re-charge you for their stupidity in paying it.

Thanks for the reply guys.

Unfortunatly I have a good relationship with my company and they paid it in good faith. The other reason is they have for the second time this year made 20% redundancies and I prefer to stay on good terms should there be any further cuts made.

It also appears they paid by credit card so I think I may well be able to contest it and get the credit card company to reclaim the funds.

I have been stopping at the Redditch Mc'ds for 6 years now regularly and have never had a fine imposed when there over 75mins. I think MET have to prove that you saw the signs etc.

Hopefully this may work...

as times are tough maybe the company could do with more 'streamlined' processing of PPC paper. Explain the reality to the company and how they should handle it. In a friendly way that shows that can save their valuable time. Explain clearly that PPCs operate a [problem], they attempt to claim under contract with the driver and so your company as the RK has zero liability against these claims - which are rubbish anyway.

You're right to look after yourself, but what kind of company is this? Laying people off left right and centre yet they're happy to pay fake invoices?

 

I guarantee Met are reading this and more invoices will be winging their way to you very shortly. You're their dream victim - a big company with plenty of vehicles who pay no questions asked.

Your employers are so careful with their, or their shareholders money, that they pay out an invoice with no consultation?

 

Let me know who they are - I could do with a hundred quid this week - in fact I'll get them to sign a direct debit, shouldn't be too difficult, and I'll have a hundred quid every week!

Hey there, I too received a "Parking Charge Notice" for retrurningduring a the No return period" at the Gatwick ring road MCDONALDS. Which i have no trouble before when picking up my disabled relatives from arrivals and to move on for a 3hr drive so therefore food and a tinkle is a priority is important, non disabled drivers used the special parking so had to use standard parking.

So yes i did return within "non return period" and was a customer of MCDONALDS

So are they going to hassle elderly disabled consumers, let us see, as i am going to contest this notice with the support of my local senoir citizens forum too.

And yes, I am not going to be threatened by MET or any other parking body when i am a consumer and not a pick up Taxi, whom they are looking to get charges from.

This goes to show that PSEEs (private sector enforcement establishments) are reasonable people if you are prepared to communicate with them reasonably.
