    • The Contract itself The airport is actually owned by the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan. There should be an authority from them for Bristol airport group  to sign on their behalf. Without it the contract is invalid. The contract has so many  clauses redacted that it is questionable as to its fairness with regard to the Defendants ability to receive a fair trial. In the case of WH Holding Ltd, West Ham United Football Club Ltd -v- E20 Stadium LLP [2018],  In reaching its decision, the Court gave a clear warning to parties involved in litigation: ‘given the difficulties and suspicions to which extensive redaction inevitably gives rise, parties who decide to adopt such an appropriate in disclosure must take enhanced care to ensure that such redactions are accurately made, and must be prepared to suffer costs consequences if they are not’. The contract is also invalid as the signatories are required to have their signatures cosigned by independent witnesses. There is obviously a question of the date of the signatures not being signed until 16 days after the start of the contract. There is a question too about the photographs. They are supposed to be contemporaneous not taken several months before when the signage may have been different or have moved or damaged since then. The DEfendant respectfully asks the Court therefore to treat the contract as invalid or void. With no contract there can be no breach. Indeed even were the contract regarded as valid there would be no breach It is hard to understand why this case was brought to Court as there appears to be no reasonable cause to apply to the DVLA.............
    • Danny - point taken about the blue paragraphs.  Including them doesn't harm your case in any way.  It makes no odds.  It's just that over the years we've had judges often remarking on how concise & clear Caggers' WSs have been compared to the Encyclopaedia Britannica-length rubbish that the PPCs send, so I always have a slight preference to cut out anything necessary. Don't send off the WS straight away .. you have plenty of time ... and let's just say that LFI is the Contract King so give him a couple of days to look through it with a fine-tooth comb.
    • Do you have broadband at home? A permanent move to e.g. Sky Glass may not fit with your desire to keep your digibox,, but can you move the items you most want off the digibox? If so, Sky Glass might suit you. You might ask Sky to loan you a “puck” and provide access as an interim measure. another option might be using Sky Go, at least short term, to give you access to some of the Sky programming while awaiting the dish being sorted.
    • £85PCM to sky, what!! why are you paying so much, what did you watch on sky thats not on freeview?  
    • Between yourself and Dave you have produced a very good WS. However if you were to do a harder hitting WS it may be that VCS would be more likely to cancel prior to a hearing. The Contract . VCS [Jake Burgess?] are trying to conflate parking in a car park to driving along a road in order to defend the indefensible. It is well known that "NO Stopping " cannot form a contract as it is prohibitory. VCS know that well as they lose time and again in Court when claiming it is contractual. By mixing up parking with driving they hope to deflect from the fact trying to claim that No Stopping is contractual is tantamount to perjury. No wonder mr Burgess doesn't want to appear in Court. Conflation also disguises the fact that while parking in a car park for a period of time can be interpreted as the acceptance of the contract that is not the case while driving down a road. The Defendant was going to the airport so it is ludicrous to suggest that driving by a No Stopping  sign is tacitly accepting  the  contract -especially as no contract is even being offered. And even if a motorist did not wish to be bound by the so called contract what could they do? Forfeit their flight and still have to stop their car to turn around? Put like that the whole scenario posed by Mr Burgess that the Defendant accepted the contract by driving past the sign is absolutely absurd and indefensible. I certainly would not want to appear in Court defending that statement either. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I will do the contract itself later.

    • 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 don't know if I can bring myself to listen to it. They spout such poop. I phoned Equifax the other day myself. I had another query on the 6 year data issue. The nice Irish chap I spoke to, Brian, started telling me that creditors could come back 7 years later and slap defaults on you again for an old debt! I wasn't even querying that as I knew the rules on that. I asked him if he was sure that were true. He said yes. I asked him if he would put that in writing. He said no. I asked him if I could speak to a manager to confirm that. He said they were all busy. He asked me for a contact number for a manager to ring me back! I told him a had a King Canute mobile for King Canute companies in an old dusty drawer and he would have to wait for me to plug in and retrieve the number. He didn't sound amused and seemed a a little flustered. I gave hime the number. 5 minutes later Brian phoned back and not a manager. He said he was phoning to offer his deepest apologies for misinforming me!!! Now do I believe Brian didn't really know the rules? No. So the question is was he a rogue telephone agent acting off his own back (possible, but odd) or was what he told me secretly approved by the Equifax management? Hmm.

What sort of world do you want your kids to grow up in?

I did! I asked:

 

Do you actually delete peoples records after 6 years or just make them inaccessible?

 

Is it just coincidence that after contacting you for a credit report I get contacted by DCA's soon after?

 

Is there a conflict of interest when CRA's own DCA's?

 

How can you justify charging people for information that is collected for the benefit of another party that pays you, when we have no choice to allow the information to be collected. (out of interest rather than a serious question)

 

I worded the questions better than that, but that was the gist.

Has anyone emailed a question about secretly passing on telephone numbers to DCA's that harass people to a state of insanity?

 

Perhaps you should ask the Q as I have already sent mine which was about 'their retention of inaccurate data even when told, often repeatedly, by the data subject'

We really need more consumers to record their conversations with these CRA's as well as the DCA's. We can place them in the public domain where the regulators can hear 1st hand some of the crap & blatant lies these companies spout when talking to the consumer.

 

I for one am setting up Skype (at last) after which I shall be contacting them all when I hope to hear just what I expect to hear......a load of rollocks:roll:

 

I shall then write to each of them quoting verbatim what has been claimed & should they deny it (as they almost certainly will) I shall offer them an audio copy for a fee of £10.:lol:

 

Its about time we started harassing them:grin:

BBC Radio 4's Money Box Live

On Radio 4 and Online

 

 

 

BBC Radio 4's Money Box Live will be broadcast on Monday, 14 April 2008, at 1502 BST.

 

On Monday's programme, presenter Paul Lewis will take your calls and e-mails on credit reports and put them to an expert panel.

In this time of economic squeeze it's more important than ever to have a good credit history if you want to borrow money to buy a house or make other major purchases.

Lenders are cutting back drastically who they lend to and some commentators even think the era of cheap borrowing is over. There is also the issue of how we safeguard our financial information from fraudsters.

 

Just as well it's a radio programme. "Photogenic" is not a word I'd use in this case. ;)

Cabot don't speak to me any more. Whenever I ring the agent must see 'Don't speak to this person on the screen'! They make up a feeble excuse and I get put through to some manager every single time. It is quite amusing. :lol: :lol: :lol:

But I've emailed too. I can't wait to hear what sh!te they come up with to the barrage of questions that must be heading their way.

 

I should like to ask why the CRA's NEVER accept that a data subject can be in the right when disputing an entry on their credit file. We all know that there is no point whatsoever adding your own notice to the file, because it has no bearing whatsoever on the decision made by a lender.

In every case that I know about, the CRA's always take the word of the company entering a default. As far as they are concerned, the word of a financial institution is infallible, and the data subject is, at best, mistaken. Even when that data subject has documentary evidence that the defaulting company are lying through their teeth.

HAHAHAHA. The poor dears think the £2 doesn't cover their costs, THAT's why they offer the £5 a month fee. Oh, and they say they offer a bertter service, with a report more suited to the needs of the consumer.

 

IT'S THE SAME FECKIN REPORT YOU TWATS!!!
