    • Speeding "tickets" are not like parking tickets. They cannot be appealed.  No you won't get one of them cancelled. They were two days apart and so will be treated as separate offences. If your speed was 53mph or below you will be offered a course for one of them (cost of about £100 but no points). For the other you will be offered a fixed penalty (£100 and three points). If you want to decline either of those offers the alternative is prosecution in court, where the financial penalty will be considerably higher. Make sure you respond to the "requests for driver's details" within the 28 days allowed. Failure to do so will see you commit a more serious offence which carries a hefty fine, six points, and an endorsement code which will see your insurance premiums double. Also make sure you submit your driving licence details if you accept a fixed penalty.
    • So if I've understood correctly, you had a meeting with a company who employ PPM to manage their car park, but PPM gave you a ticket and the company refuse to get it cancelled.  Eh???!!! You are being somewhat secretive with the details and it would help us to give correct advice if you would be crystal clear about the story.  Who did you have the meeting with?  What is their address?  Why do you think it was them who called in PPM?  Were you informed about the matter of the permit by this company?  Etc.
    • What a disgraceful shirking of responsibility.  Par for the course though I'm afraid with Iceland. You could get nasty and send them a version of the below (you know the local area so change what needs to be changed). Unfortunately the people who are replying are having to comply with the company policy which is being foisted on them - which is not to cancel tickets. But you might as well send the mail and try.   Dear Cissy, thank you for today's mail. Of course you are "able" to cancel the charge, you simply contact Excel and tell them to cancel the charge. I will wait for exactly 24 hours and then contact the local newspaper XXXXX and the local radio station XXXXX about Iceland's disgraceful disability discrimination.  Nothing much happens in Gravesend so I'm sure both will be happy to do a piece which will generate terrible publicity for your store and drive away customers, which is exactly what you deserve. Yours, XXXXX 
    • You are absolutely right to be cautious. It would be helpful if you will be prepared to send me a private message containing details of the outlet and the address et cetera. It might help me to get things more into perspective. So I understand that you had a business selling your husband's photographs. You were unable to continue your direct involvement and so you made an arrangement with a manager who you trusted to carry on the business for you while you were recovering elsewhere in the country. Is this correct? This manager has possession of all the files of your husband's photographs. Is this correct? Do you have any copies of the files? You made a reference to having a Co-op. Does that mean that you are running a Co-op supermarket or groceries outlet? I don't quite understand here. In terms of the possibility of continuing the arrangement with this manager – my own view is that you need to bring the arrangement to an end and I don't see how you could trust them. As far as I can see you are asking about two issues. Making sure that the files in the manager's position are destroyed so that you regain control of the photographs. Obtaining some damages for the loss of revenue. How many photographs do you believe are in his possession? What you estimate is your loss of revenue so far – probably calculated on your average revenue over, say, the five years before you stopped your involvement in the business? You are talking here not only about a breach of contract. You are talking also about breach of copyright and frankly you're also talking about deliberate copyright infringement – which is a criminal offence. Also fraud. Additionally, if you begin the dispute with this person, I would say that they will probably leave immediately. Have you got somebody else to run the business or would that be the moment that the whole thing collapses? If it is the latter, then this is something else that you need to prepare – somebody to take over as seamlessly as possible   Also, do you know the address of this person – and do they own their own home or any other assets?  
    • Just as i thought (from above post) : i just hope this is not the normal customer service that say they cant do anything and that you have to appeal to excel parking 🙄 this is the response my friend has received today - totally ignoring the subject which was: 'victim of disability discrimination on the part of your agents' does anyone have any ideas to reply with please?     Thank you for your response.   I would like to apologise for the error in the previous email; our CEO, Tarsem Dhaliwal had received your email and tasked ourselves in the Executive Resolution Team with looking into this.   We have raised this with our internal property department who have more information on parking charges and any appeals, we can see that you had appealed the PCN with excel which was rejected, you then appealed the PCN with IAS which was also rejected.   Because of this, we would not be able to cancel or refund the charge.    I understand this may not be the outcome you had hoped for, I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.   Kind regards, Cissy

    • 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, I owed money about £700 on a Littlewoods catalogue. After paying £10 per month after a lot of bullying and harrasment I requested the CCA and enclosed a £1 postal order.

A week later and I have received a court letter claim form regarding this. Particulars of the claim are '

THE CLAIMANT CLAIMS £160.00, SUCH SUM BEING PART OF A DEBT DUE UNDER AGREEMENT NUMBER ****** WHEREBY THE DEFENDANT AGREED TO PAY THE CLAIMANT £802 [THE DEBT].

 

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT IN MAKING THIS CLAIM FOR A PART OF THE DEBT THE CLAIMANT DOES NOT WAIVE ANY RIGHTS AS TO THE BALANCE OF THE DEBT, WHICH THE DEFENDANT CONTINUES TO OWE TO THE CLAIMANT UNDER THE AGREEMENT.

 

Why are they only trying to claim some of the money?

How do I go from here?

What should I do?

Do they still have to provide the CCA as they have obviously ignored my request?

Do I have a case?

 

PLEASE HELP.:x

This is getting effing ridiculous! The man has to be stopped.

The only difference in this case is that he's going for 20% this time.

 

vicky26, read through the thread that DonkeyB has highlighted. You'll find most of what you need to know there. The circumstances are almost identical.

If you need help drafting a defence then let us know.

Don't forget to get the acknowledgment of service (AOS) back in plenty of time. Deny the whole of the amount claimed. Counter-claim costs for defending an indefensible case.

I really do appreciate all those 'thank you' emails - I'm glad I've been able to help. Apologies if I haven't acknowledged all of them.

You can also ding my gong if you prefer. :)

Can I still deny the whole amount claimed even though I was harrased and frightened into making monthly payments until 2 months ago? I have written a copy of the letter on the thread highlighted to Bryan Carter.

 

Please could you help me to draft a defence. I would be totally lost without the help of all on this site so Thanks.

Read the thread in Post #2

 

Then this may help

 

In the Northampton County Court (CCBC)

 

Claim number

 

 

 

 

 

Between

- Claimant

 

And

 

 

- Defendant

 

 

 

 

Defence

 

1. I, xxxx of xxxxxxxxx make this statement as my defence to the claim brought by xxxxxxxxxx

 

2. The claimants particulars of claim are vague and fail to disclose any cause of action, they appear to be an abuse of the process in that they fail to deal with the basic rules of pleading in accordance with the CPR even allowing for the constraints of the bulk issue system

 

3. No documents supporting the claims in the particulars have been offered nor have any dates of agreement or account numbers been stated which the defendant needs to establish what agreement it is that this action is based upon

 

4. The claimant appears to be a debt purchaser of delinquent debts and not a money lender, the claimant seems to contend that they are entitled to monies due under said agreement made between the defendant and the claimant Fredrickson international. The defendant has no knowledge of this company or any indebtedness to them relating to any agreement, the defendant has not entered into any agreement with the claimant and therefore should it be the Claimants contention that they have a claim to monies under an agreement between the defendant and another creditor, the defendant seeks clarification of this fact and proof of legal assignment as required by Law of Property Act 1925

 

5. Without clarification of the claimants claim, the defendant is extremely disadvantaged and the claimants claim appears without merit

 

6. additionally the claimant appears to have split the cause of action insofar that they bring a claim for a part of a debt. the defendant notes that this is unlawful and for authority of this fact cites Section 35 County Courts Act 1984 which sets this out clearly.

 

 

7. Further to that above 6 paragraphs, the defendant is unable to plead effectively or at all. The defendant is embarrassed.

 

8 the defendant seeks permission upon clarification of the claimants case and disclosure of the necessary documents to amend this defence

 

Statement of Truth

 

 

I xxxxxxxxxxxx, believe the above statement to be true and factual to the best of my knowledge

 

 

Signed .....................

Hi there

 

I wouyld file the acknowledgement of service via Special Delivery (nothing less!!) and with that send a defence,

 

then when this mcmuffin discontinues, sting him for costs as when a party discontinues they automatically fall liable for costs where a discontinuance is filed after a defence has been sent to the court

 

that should give you a couple of hundred quid in costs as a result of this

 

So its time to fillet his donkey BIG TIME

why wont the courts do anytrhing about him. He is always going for his costs first but he cant do that.

 

This guy needs to learn and that he will be doing as he has had to pay for this court order.

because the courts are pretty powerless to do anything

 

this mcmuffin relies upon an undefended claim, this then ensures his victory but the minute he smells a whiff of the likely hood that you are going to defend he withdraws the action and thats it case closed in essence

 

that is why i say stick a defence in at the same time as acknowledging then if he withdraws he gets spanked for costs and then he will learn to do things properly

Hi, Just as you predicted I received the notice of discontinuance this morning from Bryan Carter.

Where should I go next? What costs can I go for now?

Still no CCA.

 

 

 

I can't stop laughing :)

 

Well done you :)
