    • Know it has already been answered, but? Does not explain why JCI has registered a different default date when they get the information from the original creditor, Virgin
    • Since you were stopped at the time there is no requirement for the police give you anything there and then or to send you anything before they have decided how to deal with the offence.  They have three choices: Offer you a course Offer you a fixed penalty (£100 and three points) Prosecute you in court  The only option that has a formal time limit is (3). They must begin court proceedings within six months of the date of the alleged offence. Options (1) and (2) have no time limit but since the only alternative the police have if you decline those offers is (3) they will not usually offer a course beyond three months from the date of the offence and will not usually offer a fixed penalty beyond four months from that date. This is so as to allow time for the driver to accept and comply with their offer and to give them the time to go to option (3) if he declines or ignores it.  Unless there is a good reason to do otherwise, the action they take will usually be in accordance with the National Police Chiefs' Council's guidance on speeding enforcement. In a 40mph limit this is as follows Up to 45mph - no action. Between 46mph and 53mph - offer a course Between 54mph and 65mph - offer a fixed penalty Over 65mph - prosecution in court So you can see that 54mph should see you offered a fixed penalty. Three weeks is not overly long for a fixed penalty offer to arrive. As well as that, there has been Easter in that period which will have slowed things down a bit. However, I would suggest that if it gets to about two months from the offence date and you have still heard nohing, I would contact the ticket office for the area where you were stopped to see if anything has been sent to you. Of course this raises the danger that you might be "stirring the hornets' nest". But in all honesty, if the police have decided to take no action, you jogging their memory should not really influence them. The bigger danger, IMHO, is that your fixed penalty offer may have been sent but lost and if you do not respond it will lapse. This will see the police revert to option (3) above. Whilst there is a mechanism in these circumstances  to persuade the court to sentence you at the fixed penalty level (rather than in accordance with the normal guidelines which will see a harsher penalty), it relies on them believing you when you say you did not received an offer. In any case it is aggravation you could well do without so for the sake of a phone call, I'd enquire if it was me.  I think I've answered all your questions but if I can help further just let me know. Just a tip - if you are offered a fixed penalty be sure to submit your driving licence details as instructed. I've seen lots of instances where a driver has not done this. There will be no reminder and no second chance; your £100 will be refunded and the police will prosecute you through the courts.
    • Looks similar to you original email to their Complaints team. I dont rate copypasta for a CEO complaint. Rewrite it with emotion involved as to how badly this is affecting you and make them feel embarrassed for their actions...

    • 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.

Thanks postggj,

Followed all procedures been to court twice.

1.To submit initial defence + request documents etc

2.Secondly to follow-up after request for documents which were filed not served, way out of time - contrary to court directions

 

Saw DN they rely on @ last appearance - requested time to consider given 14 days to File ammended defence (which could have been incorrect) plus letter of apology to the court for filing late due to illness - the dreaded mutant flu going around - knocked me and OH right out!

Yes I did file it late:cry:

 

This in post today....7 days to respond.....but less now as dated 20th :eek:

I want to respond to it ASAP.....but unsure what my options are.

Using non-compliant DN as ammended defence, my untrained (legal) eyes spotted 3 items which make it non-compliant.

Sorry, I have to tell you your DN is not invalid due to not being given sufficient time to remedy.

 

The regs were changed on 19th December 2006. Prior to that there was only 7 days allowed for remedy.

 

The only way I can see you challenging the DN is to put them to strict proof that it was actually received.

What I find interesting is you say that the NOA says the account was assigned on the 22nd August 2008. However, they had already started proceedings on the 20th August 2008.. when they didnt own the debt at that time ??

 

Also, on the agreement/application form.. it looks like you ticked NO you didnt want the card protection, but you say that the statements show you were paying for this product ?

citizenB,

Thanks.... I requested this at initial defence of claim have not responded.

 

On review of DN I noted 3 things...

- claimants name + address (not there?)

- Correctly identify important information bold underline etc(its not as prescribed?)

- the time to serve (which you now advise incorrect)

 

Were the first 2 reasonable grounds to challenge DN...?

 

As regards PPI taken out a long time after initial agreement. Done verbally and active thereafter, never signed an agreement or saw it - all done on the phone.

 

Looks like I'll have a judgement to pay claim in the NY:sad:

Sorry but I feel rather down, difficult to enter into the festivities....inevitable appears likely...unless anyone else has other suggestion(s)????

There is no such post code as LS99 ZBD, the real defaults from GE money are LS99 2 BD

 

The typeface in the GE money logo is also Wrong

 

HC/CL have forged them just as they did in my case, as agreed by the judge, does this apply and does it help, as i say i have not read the entire thread so dont know if this makes any differance

Blind-as-a bat,

Thanks, yes it is....and that does help;)

I saw similar on another post and was sceptical it appeared...plus the fact I never got it in the first place!

 

But really could do with help on my response to the court (post 151).

 

Correctly and with some certainty:(

 

Merry Christmas to you and appreciate your help at this time.

BAB, I am not saying the DN IS valid, I am saying that the lack of time to remedy cannot be used as it was issued prior to 19 December 2006 when only 7 days were given.

I know CB, i meant no offence.

 

But HC/CL are doing it yet again, misleading the court a default was issued, i dont know if a real one from GE was issued or not, but that is not proof one was in any way, as CL/HC have manufactured it, they have supplied a false document under a witness statemant too the court claiiming it is real one if they are following the same line as my case.

 

Without a DN they have no right of action, as they cannot demand the full amount, and have unlawfully terminated the contract doing so in court.

 

And they know it:wink:

 

Merry Christmas

Absolutely. If you have data from a SAR, ddd, is there a communications log, where activity on the account is noted ie phone calls, letters sent etc.. if so, check around the date they say the DN was sent and see if it has been logged .

cb/blind-as-a-bat,

Thanks I really appreciate your input and feel guilty I'm diverting you from much more enjoyable activities.

In response to qustions thanks I realise I now cannot use the time served as a reason for non-comploiance and will not.

As regards SAR, never ever seen one... despite having specifically requesting right at the beginnning of claim. Then several times after with recorded letters.

So I guess the lack of it suggest they prefer not to supply evidence to the contrary of what they are claiming - never sent?

 

Did note an alarming but common thread where fabrication seems to be the accepted strategy, clearly and totally unacceptable.

 

Looking to compile my letter (response) to the court including all points raised and other items I have already relied upon that have been discussed but not provided.

Can anyone direct me to the sort of response I need to provide please. The structure or content is fine, dont feel confident enough to just fire something away now.....

 

Thanks and all your help is greatly appreciated.

Season greetings at Christmas & Happy New Year to all!

ddd, not quite sure what exactly you require. When you say response to the court.. are you meaning a witness statement, defence or just a letter ?

 

Thngs like this are "tailor made" so I doubt if there is anyone with a similar circumstance to you.

 

If you can bullet point what you need to be included (or perhaps a brief summary of where we are now and how you got here) that would help.

cb, Thanks.

TBH I'm not sure what I need to do OR if I can do anything but the order from the court says exactly(word for word)...

 

3) TAKE NOTE

"...Any party affected by this order may apply to have it set aside, varied or stayed within 7 days of service of this order...."

 

suggestions what I can do, does this mean they have successfully filed the claim and judgment is due/imminent pending no objections from me? Because that is what I understood or does it mena something else....

I have to be honest, I am still not clear on what has happened. The first post I have quoted above, is that the oriignal order, the 2nd post quoted is point 3 in its entirity ?

 

Whose defence has been struck out, who has been given permission to file a defence out of time.

 

"defence struck out due to no cause of action".. is that their defence or yours ?

 

Is there any chance you can post up (minus any identifying bits) the whole order please ?
