    • next time dont upload 19 single page pdfs use the sites listed on upload to merge them into one multipage pdf.. we aint got all day to download load single page files 2024-01-15 DBCLegal SAR.pdf
    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................
    • Hi,   I am not sure if I posted this already here but I don't think I did. I attach a judgement that raises very interesting points IMO. Essentially EVRi did their usual non attendance that we normally see, however the judge (for the first time I've seen in these threads) dismissed the notice and awarded me judgement by default because their notice misses the "confirmation of compliance" paragraph. in and out in 3 minutes (aside from the chat at the end with the judge about his problems with evri) Redacted - evri CPR loss.pdf
    • Just to update this. I did apply to strikeout and they did not attend the hearing. I won by defualt and the hearing lasted 5 minutes (court only allocated 15). The judge simply explained that the only matter he was really considering is if the Defendant could have any oral evidence to defend the claim. However he said he had decided that based on their defence, and their misunderstanding of law, and their non attendence he did not think they had any reasonsable chance so he awarded me SJ + Costs on the claim form + the strikeout fee. Luckily when I sent the defendant the order I woke up the next day to a wire trasnfer for the full sum of the judgement

    • 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.

JonCris...oh heck, that really never crossed my mind at all. I have read back through this thread and edited sections so I hope I can remain anonymous.

I will be more careful.

 

TheChancellor would you mind editing your posts referring to the amount I owe?

Thanks.

Another letter from Cabot to say they are going to remind Goldfish to supply CCA again.

I think their computer must be programmed to send out these letters as it is exactly the same as the last one...even down to the number of days they state it is since I made the original request!

  • 3 weeks later...
I have had my DMP review with the CCCS and my monthly payment has been reduced by more than a quarter as I am off sick. This is towards a debt of just over £40000.

I asked the counsellor about making F &F offers with the lump sum I have and she said I could either pay off the smaller accounts or offer everyone a pro rata amount. They would probably get about 30%.

What worries me here, and it is better to say now,is an implication of money in a bank account. I hope it is independent of any creditors related banks. Some creditors are ruthlessly using "Set Off". They cleaned someones bank account of a months money leaving them £1.00 for the month. Hope any money paid into an account is independent.

Someone on here will have a list of which banks are "related".

 

I would stick your cash into premium bonds for a couple of months whilst you are negotiating.Theres a good chance you could win a bit more & it is away from harm.

I have been away for a few days and have returned to a lot of mail which I will be asking help with tomorrow when I am not so tired.

In answer to overdone's post and TheChancellor's followup. The money I have is in local building society which is not connected to any other bank as I had got that info from CAG previously.

Sorry NH, I hadn't seen your request but had a PM to say it had been edited.

I have been trying to use the Dummies Guide to try and post a link to a post in the thread "Chalkitup v HFC(Marbles)/Robinson Way" which shows a copy of an application form for a Marbles CC because I have received one which is virtually the same following my CCA request to Robinson Way.

I have also failed miserably trying to use Photobucket.

The very very poor copy of the Application Form does say that I applied for the card in 2002 but is almost illegible. I can make out headings "Use of your information" "Note for the Applicant" and "Marketing and Market Research" I have signed it and so has someone else in the "For Office Use" box.

There is nothing about interest rates etc.

Should I start separate threads for my debts or is it OK to leave everything on this thread?

 

Also, should I carry on paying the money via my DMP with CCCS to the accounts where no CCA is forthcoming or zero the balances so no money goes to them?

I have now had a letter from Cap1 bank about my CC debt which says they are going to do something to me in 28 days but I have forwarded it to the CCCS for their comments.

 

I am so sorry about all these questions but it is very scary being on your own. I am not usually a wimp but I am finding these weeks following my husband's death very difficult.

You are in good hands here. I see Joncris keeping an eye out for you as i type.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

There are charges on the Cap1 account which is actually my own debt. I will be pursuing this (and all the others) when I can get myself organised.

I really will try and get threads started for each of my debts so that I am not confusing everyone :( about which are my debts and which are my late husband's.

Stupid letter from Egg.

I sent them a copy of my husband's will and had a letter back to say "we note your husband did not leave a will!!!!"

 

Can they actually read?

 

And the letter also had a note to say that Egg could confirm that proof of my husband's debt had already been sent.

Well actually, no it hasn't.

So I have written back pointing out their mistake.

Why did you let them see the will?

Sorry for delay TheChancellor my Mum has beeen poorly and has had to go into care.

I did ask further back on this thread about sending a copy of the will (I think) and was told it wouldn't do any harm.

Anyway, it's just one sheet naming me as Executor and leaving anything to me.

As it is, now I have all the bills in relating to the funeral (not including the headstone) there is about £1000 left to share amongst creditors owed nearly £30000.

Egg have been so stupid. I have written to them several times and they keep sending letters back that bear no relation to any comments I have made. They sent me a huge document to fill in detailing our assets :rolleyes: which I have ignored.

Do they really think I am in a fit state to deal with all this?

I have now sent copies of all my husband's creditors' letters together with a breakdown of costs to show how little is left after paying the bills.I have nothing to hide.

I have said I would like to be able to afford a headstone so don't ask for anything else.

 

I am still trying to pluck up the courage to act on the advice on the threads I have started about my own debts. I just don't seem to be able to find the courage.

"Corporate Bodies have no soul" Because what you are being advised to do maybe goes against the core of your own nature and contrary to how you have been raised to think. Your head needs to go to another place to deal with Organisations. It is not as though you are dealing with friends and family.

Hi NH

 

Nice to see you back.:D

 

Go & sort a headstone if that will bring you comfort & there wont be much change from £1000.Then they can go & whistle Dixie if that is the last of your husband's assets?

 

Once that half of things is out of the way we will work a way through your list.Chin Up.

This made me smile.

You have a great way of putting things in perspective. Thanks.

 

I am up at an unearthly hour as just had a call from the home my Mum has moved into to say she has fallen and they are sending her to hospital.

I had only been asleep for a couple of hours and I think I am too tired to drive the 30 miles to be there with her so I'm waiting for news.

From the carer's description, I have a horrible feeling Mum has a fractured neck of femur.
