    • Please go back and read my message posted at 10:27 this morning @jk2054. I didn't say that I wasn't going to provide documents, only that I will upload them to an online repo that I am in control of, and that I would share links to these. You shall still be able to read and download them no different from if they were hosted here. And, the issue I have is not so much with hosting, but using an online pdf editor to create a multi-page pdf, again I have discussed this that same message.
    • Thanks ,DX, I'd forgpotton about that letter and can't remember sending a SB letter. I must have left it and they did not chase. Unclebulgia. Yes several periods of no contact. Think its time for the SB letter . 
    • well if your not going to upload documents because you are too scared of your data being stolen and someone rocking up to you we are going to struggle to help you peoples energy data breach has nothing to do with a hosting site...

    • 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 Missplod,

I really feel for you, I am quite a bit in debt and know how awful it is to feel helpless to do anything about it. I am now with CCCS for about a year and they have been fantastic. When I first rang them I was thinking exactly the same as you and that I wouldn't have enough left over to cover any of my debts. They went through my income and expenditures plan and I was left with only £70 a month for all my debts, I actually said to the advisor what was I going to do as I didn't think that would be enough and she said that if that all you've got then you can't pay any more. So true! Also one of the good things about it is that they ask the credit cards and loans to freeze the interest so you are just paying off the balance and they will split the payment between all your debtors so the highest gets the most etc. If your circumstances get better or you have extra money some months then you can give them more than your agreement and so it will be paid off quicker.

Try not to be so hard on yourself, you have taken the first steps to sorting out your debt problems. Also have you checked that you are getting all the benefits you can? Tax credits are a lifeline for me and you can often get Council Tax benefit if you are on a low income (I got £100 off last year which isn't amazing but every little helps). I hope things look up for you soon *hugs*

Hi Missplod,

 

I am sorry to hear you so upset, I too have a young family and big debts that I am struggling to pay so I understand your concerns.

Hopefully the cccs will help on the 9th.

 

Take care and remember what is really important in life!!!

In your opinion what is the likely hood of the CCCS accepting to take my case with a surplus amount of only £141 and so many creditors and high monthly payments.

 

 

there is a VERY good chance of you being referred for a DMP. I refer clients with that level of surplus on a daily basis.
