    • Thanks for your reply, I have another 3 weeks before the notice ends. I'm also concerned because the property has detoriated since I've been here due to mould, damp and rusting (which I've never seen in a property before) rusty hinges and other damage to the front door caused by damp and mould, I'm concerned they could try and charge me for damages? As long as you've documented and reported this previously you'll have a right to challenge any costs. There was no inventory when I moved in, I also didn't have to pay a deposit. Do an inventory when you move out as proof of the property's condition as you leave it. I've also been told that if I leave before a possession order is given I would be deemed intentionally homeless, is this true? If you leave, yes. However, Your local council has a legal obligation to ensure you won't be left homeless as soon as you get the notice. As stated before, you don't have to leave when the notice expires if you haven't got somewhere else to go. Just keep paying your rent as normal. Your tenancy doesn't legally end until a possession warrant is executed against you or you leave and hand the keys back. My daughter doesn't live with me, I'd likely have medical priority as I have health issues and I'm on pip etc. Contact the council and make them aware then.      
    • extension? you mean enforcement. after 6yrs its very rare for a judge to allow enforcement. it wont have been sold on, just passed around the various differing trading names the claimant uses.    
    • You believe you have cast iron evidence. However, all they’d have to do to oppose a request for summary judgment is to say “we will be putting forward our own evidence and the evidence from both parties needs to be heard and assessed by a judge” : the bar for summary judgment is set quite high! You believe they don't have evidence but that on its own doesn't mean they wouldn't try! so, its a high risk strategy that leaves you on the hook for their costs if it doesn't work. Let the usual process play out.
    • Ok, I don't necessarily want to re-open my old thread but I've seen a number of such threads with regards to CCJ's and want to ask a fairly general consensus on the subject. My original CCJ is 7 years old now and has had 2/3 owners for the debt over the years since with varying level of contact.  Up to last summer they had attempted a charging order on a shared mortgage I'm named on which I defended that action and tried to negotiate with them to the point they withdrew the charging order application pending negotiations which we never came to an agreement over.  However, after a number of communication I heard nothing back since last Autumn barring an annual generic statement early this year despite multiple messages to them since at the time.  at a loss as to why the sudden loss of response from them. Then something came through from this site at random yesterday whilst out that I can't find now with regards to CCJ's to read over again.  Now here is the thing, I get how CCJ's don't expire as such, but I've been reading through threads and Google since this morning and a little confused.  CCJ's don't expire but can be effectively statute barred after 6 years (when in my case was just before I last heard of the creditor) if they are neither enforced in that time or they apply to the court within the 6 years of issue to extend the CCJ and that after 6 years they can't really without great difficulty or explanation apply for a CCJ extension after of the original CCJ?.  Is this actually correct as I've read various sources on Google and threads that suggest there is something to this?.

    • 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.

I suspect many Dads will be only to familiar with the following scenario but just in case there are some Fathers out there who feel they alone have to put up with an unreasonable and stroppy kid of any age I post this very recent little tale in the fervent hope they won’t feel alone.

 

I should also mention that the ‘child’ in question is aged 20 + (never mind no one on the site knows her she’ll still never forgive me if I give it away here)

 

Daughter “Dad can I have some money please”

Me “No you can’t”

Daughter “Why not”

Me “Cos I said so that’s why”

Daughter “Dad can I have some money please”

Me “No you can’t”

Daughter “Why not”

Me “Cos I said so that’s why”

Daughter “Dad can I have some money pleeeeease”

Me “No you caaaaaan’t”

Daughter “Why not”

Me “Cos I bleeding say that’s why (note the irritation is beginning to show - bad idea)

Daughter “ Well! I want to know why I can’t have any money”

Me “Who are you my bloody keeper” (another big mistake irritation increasing)

Daughter “What do you mean”

 

At this point I decide to cool it a little - another bloody mistake & I should also mention at this point, particularly as he has a pivotal role in this story, that She has, as well as a good job, a complete Dork for a boyfriend who gets on my wick at the best of times & what follows does nothing to improve it

 

Me “What do you want the money for anyway & how much”?

Daughter “Me & (the dork) want to go out tonight

Me “WHAT! & you expect me to pay hasn’t he (the dork) got any money then”

Daughter “Well no

Me “Why”

Daughter “Can’t say”

Me “Why the hell not” (you’ll note more irritation beginning to appear)

Daughter “It’s a surprise”

Me “Who for & I don’t like surprises especially if they are going to cost ME money”

Daughter “ Don’t be so mean Dad he (the dork) is very excited”

Me “Excited or not why does he have no money & now expects me to pay so he (the dork) can romance my daughter

Daughter “He’s bought a car”

Me “A CAR”

Daughter “Yes a car & he’s very excited”

Me “I bet he (the dork) is” & how much did he pay for this car which excites him

Daughter “1,200 quid out of the Auto Trader

Me “Did he have to have that car couldn’t he have bought one for say 1,100 quid then he could have afforded to take you out as well” (that didn’t go down too well)

Daughter “Your being really mean dad” (I’m not really but there you go)

Me “Anyway you haven’t told me how much or what it’s for” (at this point I’m thinking maybe some bits for the ‘excited’ car fluffy dice perhaps - wrong)

Daughter “Yes I did - we want to go out Oh & I would like 500 quid please

Me “WHAT did you say £500 Bloody quid (now I’m losing it) where the hell does he want to take you - the bleeding Ritz (note the well founded sarcasm)

Daughter “Yes”

 

I will return to the story later as it ain’t finished & I’m off to thump someone, anyone right after having a very very stiff strong drink- also I now need the therapy

Care to ask nicely, without swearing, + U will be told...;)

 

 

 

 

 

I doubt very much that you have stayed at the Ritz as you appear to be claiming otherwise you wouldn't be talking such rollocks
A rather presumptious statement on your part methinks JC??...:o

 

Several things need clarification...

 

U NEVER stated WHICH Ritz.

U NEVER stated (...until your quoted Post above) that a 'Stay' was involved.

U NEVER stated that I would have to be a mind-reader to know EXACTLY what U considered relevant, before U accused me of 'talking such rollocks'.

 

Methinks that perhaps U ought to chill a tad...:cool:

...I hope that U don't approach any of your legal/court proceedings with such impetuousity??...:?

Well you never stated you meant another Ritz as when most say I'm going to the Ritz or I'm putting on the Ritz. They mean THE RITZ not some dive

 

Also doesnt the request for £500 give you a clue that at stay might be involved if not not very sharp are we

 

Anyway it's a day in the life of a father so go peddle your charms elsewhere please

Been told I shouldn't mention my kid spending £500 on a visit to London as it might upset some of you. Insensitive apparently to those with now't

 

So to those who ARE upset & with now't you have my apologies not to say my deepest sympathy

 

So be warned nobody mention any exotic hols or new clothes, or new car will ya, it's not approved of. You all have to be in penuary

 

What the hell is the site coming to when you can't have a little light relief from the daily grief most here suffer

 

Incidentally I gave her more! than £500 but that was meant to be part of the next instalment:grin:

Oh for gods sake ! Some people need to be a less tetchy. This was only someone sounding off and we all need to do that at times. I personally was enjoying this tale and having a laugh..........it also brought back memories from my childs youth. I for one would like the next chapter please.

 

I thought this site was about sharing and caring :confused:

Hi Jailbird

 

Believe or not those sentiments about me spending £500 on my kid came from a MOD who PM'd me:mad:

 

& if it's site policy not to have a laugh or mention, as some appear to think, alleged feckless spending then I think we should be told

 

Also it did occur to me as an after thought, that any DCA reading my thread might have apoplexy thinking one of us could actually afford to do such things:grin:

EVEN in England? I would have thought that England was one of the most expensive tourist destinations these days ;-0
