    • I hope Lord Frost is OK. Islamists and the woke Left are uniting to topple the West ARCHIVE.PH archived 18 Apr 2024 19:12:37 UTC  
    • Ok you are in the clear. The PCN does not comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 for two reasons. The first is that in Section 9 [2][e]  says the PCN must "state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper— (i)to pay the unpaid parking charges ". It does not say that even though it continues correctly with blurb about the driver. The other fault is that there is no parking period mentioned. Their ANPR cameras do show your arrival and departure times but as that at the very least includes driving from the entrance to the parking space then later leaving the parking space and driving to the exit. It also doesn't allow for finding a parking spot: manoeuvering into it avoiding parking on the lines: possibly having to stop to allow pedestrians/other cars to pass in front of you; returning the trolley after finishing shopping; loading children disabled people in and out of the car, etc etc.  All of that could easily add five, ten or even 15 minutes to your time which the ANPR cameras cannot take into account. So even if it was only two hours free time you could  still have been within the  time since there is a MINIMUM of 15 minutes Grace period when you leave the car park. However as they cannot even manage to get their PCN to comply with the Act you as keeper cannot be pursued. Only the driver is now liable and they do not know who was driving as you have not appealed and perhaps unwittingly given away who was driving. So you do not owe them a penny. No need to appeal. Let them waste their money pursuing you . 
    • If Labour are elected I hope they go after everyone who made huge amounts of money out of this, by loading the company with debt. The sad thing is that some pension schemes, including the universities one, USS, will lose money along with customers.
    • What's the reason for not wanting a smart meter? Personally I'm saving a pile on a tariff only available with one. Today electricity is 17.17p/kWh. If the meter is truly past its certification date the supplier is obliged to replace it. If you refuse to allow this then eventually they'll get warrant and do so by force. Certified life varies between models and generations, some only 10 or 15 years, some older types as long as 40 years or maybe even more. Your meter should have its certified start date marked somewhere so if you doubt the supplier you can look up the certified life and cross check.
    • No I'm not. Even if I was then comments on this forum wouldn't constitute legal advice in the formal sense. Now you've engaged a lawyer directly can I just make couple of final suggestions? Firstly make sure he is fully aware of the facts. And don't mix and match by taking his advice on one aspect while ploughing your own furrow on others.  Let us know how you get on now you have a solicitor acting for you.

    • 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.

These companies want to charge you for a getting acopy of your agreement and seeing if it's enforceable.

 

which you can do for £1 plus postage.

 

no company can guarantee you that they can write them off.

Forget about these companies, infact i am not even going to discuss them as its a waste of my time

 

Look around the legalities forum and you will see people are fighting back and winning and we are helping them

 

if you have an unenforceable agreement it can be challenged via the courts and an order made that prevents the creditor from ever trying to enforce the agreement which means its game over for them

 

and you can do it all yourself

If you want me to, I'll send off a CCA request for you at a cost of £300 thus saving you £150. Take into account I have a 5 minute walk to the Post Office, £1.00 for the CCA cost, £1.xx for Recorded Delivery, 5 minutes labour printing the template letter. Then another 10 minutes posting the agreement on CAG for opinions/confirmation about the agreement. I really think that is a bargain offer :)

Please tell all your mates aswell, cos a few of these a week would do me very nicely :)

On the other hand you could do it yourself with all the help and advice from the very knowledgeable people on here that are always willing to advise/help and it would cost less than a pint of lager :)

Is it any wonder I'm not a millionaire.

 

Pete.

yes I am further down the road than that, I have already got a copy of my file & have quoted back to Amex that their agreement is unenforceable as the terms & conditions are not part of the signiture but separate, they have quoted back to me a high court case so & so verses so & so and the judge sided with Amex as after card was taken out client continued to use card therefore he must have accepted the terms & conditions. Amex have now issued a Statuatory Demand on me, any ideas

OK, So a question for you

 

If an application was completed online, without a written signatures by the applicant on the application form and the creditor, does this consisitute as unenforceable?

 

Whistler128

With all due respect , that questions is about as answerable as which came first the chicken or the egg.;)

 

it would depend on a number of factors. was a copy fo the agreement given to the debtor at the time the agreement became executed, did the agreement entered into contain the prescribed terms, what was the date of the agreement pre or post Dec 31st 2004?

 

so many pieces of info are needed to ascertain whether the agreement is enforceable or not

Sorry for been so vague.

  1. The agreement was post Dec 2004.
  2. Was downloaded & printed,
  3. No other agreement was supplied for "proper" signatures

This is just one of 3 Credit Card companies I am looking at.

 

Thanks for the info!!

On online agreements they send you a print out of the agreement but instead of signatures there is usually tick boxes

Hello there,

 

I have taken the first steps in going for unenforceable agreements.

Done the first letter to 3 Credit Card Companies, giving them the 12 day notice, Not one of these company have reply to my request.

 

Can someone tell me what my next step should be, does the delay mean they may not have the information that I requested or is this a time delaying ploy?

 

All suggestions are much appreciated.

 

Regards

Whistler128

You don't have to use any agencies, especially those that charge you! There are National Agencies who will do it for you for free but like the thread says, you can do it yourself. Always look under the Debt Action Group and use your own particular card/bank. Read all their threads and when you're ready, start you own............. we are all here together!!!

Good afternoon,

 

Following my quest to see where I stand with regards to my Credit Cards been unenforceable. I have just had a response from (MBNA Europe) Abbey Credit Card, they have sent me a list of all recent statement of the account & Agreement/Terms and Conditions.

 

The following is a paragraph from the covering letter from Abbey

 

Quote "We are sorry we have not been able to send you a copy of photocopy of the orginal as unfortunately, Abbey were unable to provide us with a copy. We hope that you will find this copy clear to read and sufficent for your purposes." Unquote

 

The agreement terms of Conditions look like they have been recently updated, and there is no sign of any signature from me at all.

 

Where do I go from here please?

In other words they are telling you they dont have an agreement.

 

No agreement=not enforceable in court!
