    • 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.....................................

    • 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

 

Really need some aadvice as very confused.

 

Have an outstanding debt with MINT for 5,000 pounds.

 

Missed two payments and immediatley got a default and was passed over to Moorcroft.

 

Moorcroft demanded the money and threatened court proceedings.

 

Sent a CCA to them and got a reply as follows

 

"We are unable to provide a copy of the signed consumer credit agreement as we are no longer dealing with the account. Please send all future correspondence to our client"

 

I then sent a CCA to MINT.

 

Got an application form back and a six page photocopy of terms and conditions printed off a computer with no signature box. They also sent me a copy of my latest statement.

 

They said that they have not sold the account and that their insolvency and client support are managing my account.

 

3 Days later WESTCOTT sent me a letter demanding full payment. The next day they sent another letter saying that I should call them and their client is willling to accept a reduced payment.

 

I have a few questions.

 

1. Who do I deal with. Westcott or MINT?

2. Do I make an offer to settle?

3. Do I call or write again. If i write to Wescott do i have to start all over again with a CCA?

 

PLEASE HELP!!

I have a few questions.

 

1. Who do I deal with. Westcott or MINT? Do Waistcoat have the right to collect? you need to send the "Prove It letter "

2. Do I make an offer to settle? Are there any panalty charges levid to the A/C no offers till you have sight of your CCA

3. Do I call or write again. No telephone calls If i write to Wescott do i have to start all over again with a CCA? Yes and no either CCA or prove it letter

 

PLEASE HELP!!

Hi Tom

 

The account is in dispute so therefore Westy or Moo have nothing to do with it.Your aim now is to eliminate West and get the case back with Mint.I would just send the prove it letter to Westy for now and see what they come back with .You do have the template i trust?

 

 

Regards

Thanks for offering to send it. If it goes back to Mint then what? They claim that its a valid CCA and that they have fullfilled their obligations.

 

They have even said they will not enter into any further corespondence about the matter and if im not happy to write to the financial obundsman.

 

Do I do that?

Hi Tom

 

You have not recieved a copy of your CCA from anyone yet have you?

 

Heres the prove it letter Courtesy of Curly Ben

 

 

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

You have contacted me/us regarding the account with the above reference number, which you claim is owed by myself/ourselves.

 

I/we would point out that I/we have no knowledge of any such debt being owed to (insert company name).

 

I am/we are familiar with the Office of Fair Trading Debt Collection Guidance which states that it unfair to send demands for payment to an individual when it is uncertain that they are the debtor in question.

 

I/we would also point out that the OFT say under the Guidance that it is unfair to pursue third parties for payment when they are not liable. In not ceasing collection activity whilst investigating a reasonably queried or disputed debt you are using deceptive/and or unfair methods.

 

Furthermore ignoring and/or disregarding claims that debts have been settled or are disputed and continuing to make unjustified demands for payment amounts to physical/psychological harassment.

 

I/we would ask that no further contact be made concerning the above account unless you can provide evidence as to my/our liability for the debt in question.

 

I/we await your written confirmation that this matter is now closed. Otherwise I will have no option but to make a complaint to the trading standards department and consider informing the OFT of your actions.

 

I/we look forward to your reply.

 

Yours faithfully

 

 

Regards

 

Andy;)

Hi

 

Mint HAVE sent a copy of the CCA but it was just the application form. Moorcroft have returned it to MINT without sending one. Now its Wescot who are demanding payment.

 

By sending this letter what am I essentially saying? Prove who I am and that its me who took the card? Im a bit confused?

No they will keep passing around the various DCA unless Mint decide that what they have sent is infact enforcable but remember no valid CCA = unenforcable debt.

 

Why would you want a settlement when you are requesting a Valid CCA?

 

Not sure which way you wish to proceed with this Tom?

Will they then take legal action ?

 

At what point should I offer a settlement?

 

Hi Tomtom, :-)

Its all a bit confusing isn't it when you find this brilliant site for the first time.

When I found the forum I was very confused.

I have gone from not knowing any thing about the debt industry and litigation to having quite a good understanding now.

What I've found very helpful is finding threads with similar situations to mine and reading them in full. I have learned alot that way.

The legal success forum is a good because you can read a thread from start to finish, showing the stages people have gone through along the way. You can find it here ...................

Hi, tom, what andy is saying is that if what mint have sent you is not a valid CCA then, let them try to prove that it is in court if they want to take it that far, try to post up what they have sent you, and others here can have a look to see what they have got.

remove any personal details first

Please note i have no legal training any advice i give comes from my own experience and from what i have learned on this site

From my own experience if they're offering a reduced final settlement, they might not have the agreement.

 

Looks like you're in a good position here. If no valid CCA, thehn it can't be enforced.

 

Very unlikely they'd go to court.
