    • its not about the migrants .. Barrister Helena Kennedy warns that the Conservatives will use their victory over Rwanda to dismantle the law that protects our human rights here in the UK.   Angela Rayner made fun of Rishi Sunak’s height in a fiery exchange at Prime Minister’s Questions, which prompted Joe Murphy to ask: just how low will Labour go? .. well .. not as low as sunak 
    • From #38 where you wrote the following, all in the 3rd person so we don't know which party is you. When you sy it was your family home, was that before or after? " A FH split to create 2 Leasehold adjoining houses (terrace) FH remains under original ownership and 1 Leasehold house sold on 100y+ lease. . Freeholder resides in the other Leasehold house. The property was originally resided in as one house by Freeholder"
    • The property was our family home.  A fixed low rate btl/ development loan was given (last century!). It was derelict. Did it up/ was rented out for a while.  Then moved in/out over the years (mostly around school)  It was a mix of rental and family home. The ad-hoc rents covered the loan amply.  Nowadays  banks don't allow such a mix.  (I have written this before.) Problems started when the lease was extended and needed to re-mortgage to cover the expense.  Wanted another btl.  Got a tenant in situ. Was located elsewhere (work). A broker found a btl lender, they reneged.  Broker didn't find another btl loan.  The tenant was paying enough to cover the proposed annual btl mortgage in 4 months. The broker gave up trying to find another.  I ended up on a bridge and this disastrous path.  (I have raised previous issues about the broker) Not sure what you mean by 'split'.  The property was always leasehold with a separate freeholder  The freeholder eventually sold the fh to another entity by private agreement (the trust) but it's always been separate.  That's quite normal.  One can't merge titles - unless lease runs out/ is forfeited and new one is not created/ granted. The bridge lender had a special condition in loan offer - their own lawyer had to check title first.  Check that lease wasn't onerous and there was nothing that would affect good saleability.  The lawyer (that got sacked for dishonesty) signed off the loan on the basis the lease and title was good and clean.  The same law firm then tried to complain the lease clauses were onerous and the lease too short, even though the loan was to cover a 90y lease extension!! 
    • Northmonk forget what I said about your Notice to Hirer being the best I have seen . Though it  still may be  it is not good enough to comply with PoFA. Before looking at the NTH, we can look at the original Notice to Keeper. That is not compliant. First the period of parking as sated on their PCN is not actually the period of parking but a misstatement  since it is only the arrival and departure times of your vehicle. The parking period  is exactly that -ie the time youwere actually parked in a parking spot.  If you have to drive around to find a place to park the act of driving means that you couldn't have been parked at the same time. Likewise when you left the parking place and drove to the exit that could not be describes as parking either. So the first fail is  failing to specify the parking period. Section9 [2][a] In S9[2][f] the Act states  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Your PCN fails to mention the words in parentheses despite Section 9 [2]starting by saying "The notice must—..." As the Notice to Keeper fails to comply with the Act,  it follows that the Notice to Hirer cannot be pursued as they couldn't get the NTH compliant. Even if the the NTH was adjudged  as not  being affected by the non compliance of the NTK, the Notice to Hirer is itself not compliant with the Act. Once again the PCN fails to get the parking period correct. That alone is enough to have the claim dismissed as the PCN fails to comply with PoFA. Second S14 [5] states " (5)The notice to Hirer must— (a)inform the hirer that by virtue of this paragraph any unpaid parking charges (being parking charges specified in the notice to keeper) may be recovered from the hirer; ON their NTH , NPE claim "The driver of the above vehicle is liable ........" when the driver is not liable at all, only the hirer is liable. The driver and the hirer may be different people, but with a NTH, only the hirer is liable so to demand the driver pay the charge  fails to comply with PoFA and so the NPE claim must fail. I seem to remember that you have confirmed you received a copy of the original PCN sent to  the Hire company plus copies of the contract you have with the Hire company and the agreement that you are responsible for breaches of the Law etc. If not then you can add those fails too.

    • 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.

Exactly. IF they turn up just tell them to call the court. The bailfiff will only knock on the door if there is somebody from the mortgage co to meet them. So really do not worry about that. Like Ell said just give the court a quick call if you do feel uneasy. Relax you won. There is nothing anybody can do. You get to keep your home What a feeling eh...

So pleased for you, Ell is an angel from above, she also helped my daughter in the same position as you. Try and relax now, I know its not as easy as it seems but providing you stick to the agreement you will be fine. Totally agree that it's not something you openly discuss with family and friends, I only found out the extent of my daughters problems when it was evident she was practically having a breakdown due to the stress and pressure.

 

Have a lovely time with your family, Christmas and always

Love

LilyLou

Wave Lending are really horible Lizzyjc, if you miss payment by two days they will be applying for another warrant, they done that to me twice for paying slightly late. GMAC are very understanding when compared to Wave, they have a specialist debt collection dept that does not think twice about sending u off to court for eviction when u are late.

Well done, not least for the result but for having the strength not to give in and a very large Well Done to the CAG team especially Ell Enn. Since joining this forum it is amazing how much strength these great people give us. A Merry Christmas to you and your family and to All the Team on here.

Hi you helped me before back in december.Anyway to cut a long story short we fell behind,we had an eviction date for next tues,7th april.I went to court today and although the judge was annoyed we had defaulted as we can afford it he ruled in our favour and suspended on the agreement of 125 towards the arrears.He was in favour of the ruling that arrears can be paid over the rest of the term of the mortgage and not the 4 years these solictors etc seem to allow us to believe.Anyway this is where i need advise.The representative was asked to appeal if it was ruled in our favour and the judge said he wouldn't allow it as it wasn't in anyone's favour to do so.Then he said they will have to appeal to a circuit judge but said it was a waste of time and that it would never be granted.I asked what that meant and he said that they have 14 days to ask for permission to appeal and told me not to worry and just get on and pay the mortgage.Is this a common thing to happen and what can i expect as i should imagine the mortgage company are going to be angry about the ruling.The judge said the eviction will be cancelled and that we should just get on with our lives.Any advise greatly received

thank you

lizzy

Hi there, solicitors for the other side can sometimes ask for leave to appeal of they are not pleased with the judge's decision (shame eh?). However, as your judge did not grant it, he will have entered that into the case notes - I think it's very unlikely the lender will appeal as it will cost them more in legal fees and there is not much chance of them winning.

 

As the judge said, just get on with paying the mortgage - if they do appeal we'll deal with that if and when it happens.

 

Try to relax now and enjoy your home :)

Hi, no they can't get another warrant just like that - they would need to get leave to appeal the order - even if it was granted you could defend again. Try not to worry - it's very unlikely to happen.

I think the judge would be angry with THEM if they ignored his decision.

 

Concentrate your energy on meeting the payments due, and not on a solicitor who is just trying to maximise their fees.

 

You really should not worry.

 

Good Luck.

I Wish you everything you wish yourself.

Hi - Tony's right, just concentrate on the fact that you have your home safe.

 

Look at it this way - some cocky just-qualified solicitor doesn't fancy going back to his boss and saying he lost the case :rolleyes: soooo - he decided to get something out of it by asking for leave to appeal - probably just to see if you were scared by that - he was just pi**ed off with losing that's all !

Hi Lizzy.

 

Like Ell said this some silly solicitor trying to prove how efficient he/.she is. The times are hard for everybody so judges are not going to evict people on some solicitors say so. These days they have to have very good reasons. Carry on paying. IF this does go to court then you would have had time to prove that you are going to make a go of it.

 

As far as swearing you will never go through it again, well I said that and I eneded up in court 3 times in a year and I still have my house.

 

Take a deep breath and live for a bit. If they take it back to court then just go with the flow. the hardest part is done.

 

Well done for winning today

 

take care

Hey Lizzy

 

dont worry yourself at all, ths is just a threat that lenders and their solicitors will use, my lender did that last time I went to court because the judge told them right off and told them not to put the charges onto my account,

they said they were appealing it and I just said well see you in court and now after 3 weeks I havent heard anything, I think they are just trying to intimidate you.

by the way I had a barrister from the city appear at my hearing and boy did he look silly. before the hearing he gave me all sorts of documents with case law that he was going to put forward to the judge.

Judge told them right off and said he was going to send a letter to the lender, after the hearing the barrister said well done for fighting for yourself and said that he didnt expect me to win at all, the hearing took over an hour.

 

and that hes never seen anyone so determined and well informed representing themself.
