    • What do you guys think the chances are for her?   She followed the law, they didnt, then they engage in deception, would the judge take kindly to being lied to by these clowns? If we have a case then we should proceed and not allow these blatant dishonest cheaters to succeed 
    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • Yes, it was, but in practice we've found time after time that judges will not rule against PPCs solely on the lack of PP.  They should - but they don't.  We include illegal signage in WSs, but more as a tactic to show the PPC up as spvis rather than in the hope that the judge will act on that one point alone. But sue them for what?  They haven't really done much apart from sending you stupid letters. Breach of GDPR?  It could be argued they knew you had Supremacy of Contact but it's a a long shot. Trespass to your vehicle?  I know someone on the Parking Prankster blog did that but it's one case out of thousands. Surely best to defy them and put the onus on them to sue you.  Make them carry the risk.  And if they finally do - smash them. If you want, I suppose you could have a laugh at the MA's expense.  Tell them about the criminality they have endorsed and give them 24 hours to have your tickets cancelled and have the signs removed - otherwise you will contact the council to start enforcement for breach of planning permission.

    • 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 Rooster.

 

Still got the MIL and she will be here for as long as necessary and frankly I couldn't do this without her.

 

We can take little Peasant in with us anytime we please. Being a private hospital, Mrs P has her own room so we're not disturbing anyone else too much so he goes everyday.

 

Off to work now. Let's see what today brings

RP, can you get a couple of days compassionate leave from work? I realise that you may have already done this in the initial stages, but maybe a few more would help you to regain some strength?

 

Best wishes to you and your family xxx

There is news and it's almost all good.

 

Mrs Peasant is at home!!!!

 

The MRI showed no need for surgery but she does have a small tumour. They don't feel the need for any intervention at the moment as they believe it is benign and will not grow significantly bigger. It will be monitored.

 

For the time being it's just rest (trust me - getting her to do that is easier said than done) and that was a condition of her discharge. Misbehave she will get worse again and be back in.

 

She's still a long way from being well but hopefully being at home will help her recovery. Has to go back and see the consultant next week but for now I'm a reasonably happy Peasant:)

I've been lurking and following this thread (my thoughts have been with you, but frankly I didn't know what to say... words just seemed inadequate) However, I'm so glad you have had this great news. Make sure she gets the rest she needs (I know you and MIL are gonna make her rest anyway... if not I'm sure you can obtain some handcuffs from somewhere!!!), and enjoy some quality time with your family after your stressful and restless few days.

All the best

That's the news we've all been waiting for.

I'm sure that between you and the MIL, Mrs RP WILL follow doctor's orders.

Now that she's home again, she will be much happier. Just make sure that she takes it easy until she's fully recovered. Don't take any argument from her... Dr. Rooster has spoken.

 

Love and best wishes to all of you, especially MIL..... She's a diamond. :cool:

Don't leave us in mid-air, RP, how is Mrs. RP progressing. I hope she's feeling brighter now that she's home.

Just spoil her rotten, you know she's worth it.

I know she'll probably be somewhat impatient to be up and about, but you must insist that she takes it easy.

 

Best wishes, Rooster.;)

I would just like to reiterate what Locutus said and wish you and your family all the very best.

I'm so happy that Mrs P is home and that you're all there for each other.

I'd come round and make the bed or look after littley or whatever to help, could even bring Mikey & Sulley but you live a little to far away for us to just pop round so we'll will send a big monster hug instead...

 

Lots of love

Sorry guys, work got in the way!

 

We're both so touched by your concern.

 

Mrs P is getting better by the day as the medication takes effect.

 

I can tell she's feeling better cos she's started spending money again. The 2 weeks she spent in hospital were the cheapest 2 weeks since we got married;)

 

MIL still here and being brilliant. Little Peasant is just so good. I came in from work yesterday and Mrs P was asleep on the sofa. When I came in he just whispered "Hello Daddy, be quiet, mummy is asleep so she gets better". It was only 2pm and she'd been asleep for an hour. She slept until nearly 4 o'clock. Not bad for someone who normally survives on 4 hours sleep a day!

 

Being self indulgent, I'm knackered. Done eight 4am starts in the last 9 days but it means I'm home in the afternoon. Day off tomorrow and I've told the MIL that I will get up when little one does so SHE can have a break. 6.30 for me is a lie in!

 

Mrs P still has a monster headache but isn't as bad as she was but we're in for a long haul. She want's to name the tumour so it's personal but we can't come up with a name. She's guessing it's male as it will probably sit there and do nothing but we don't have a name for it yet.

 

By the way - next time she says to me "I've got a brain tumour you know" I may be forced to remove it myself:)

As a suggestion for a name for an annoying, useless lump that Mrs RP would like to get rid of. :D

 

Seriously, RP, I think that is a brilliant idea - give it a name and therefore something tangible to fight against.

All help is merely my opinion only - please seek legal advice if you need to as I am only qualified in SEN law.
