    • Well I sent them the letter of claim, the only responses so far was a few emails reopening the claims on the parcels where they asked for information such as proof of value (which I get) but other things like photos of the parcels, which I haven't got as I never took photos of them. It's been well over the 14 days since I sent the letter now anyway, so what do you think I should do now?
    • 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.

    • 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.

Thank you for your recent letter, your details have been passed to me in order that I may respond in my capacity as Customer Relationship Manager.

I am sorry you feel the charges you have incurred are unfair. We believe that our charges are both fair and transparent, and we make them clear in our Terms and Conditions, and on the reverse of every monthly statement.

In your correspondence you have outlined a legal argument which you say supports your view. As I am sure you will appreciate Barclaycard is aware of all the information you have drawn to our attention. I must inform you however, that we disagree with your legal analysis.

Putting the above to one side, as a good will gesture and without any admission of liability, I am prepared to credit your account with the difference between the charges that you have incurred and the current £12 fee. This would amount to £304.00, plus 8% interest.

The adjustment will be confirmed on your next statement.

May I take this opportunity to remind you that the best way to avoid similar charges in the future is to remain within your credit limit and ensure that your monthly payment reaches us with the required timeframe.

Re: Account number Response to settlement offer. Letter Before Action.

Dear Tim Young

Thank you for your letter dated 23rd December 2008.

respectfully decline your offer of settlement and request, that you return to me all charges imposed on this account, totalling £

In order to avoid Litigation against you, I am prepared to temporarily accept the sum offered as partial settlement on the clear understanding that the remainder is paid within the next 10 days. Failure to comply with this request will result in legal action against you for full recovery.

In your letter you refer me to the terms and conditions applied to my account, I take this to mean the terms and conditions I accepted on the successful application of my Morgan Stanley Dean Whitter card at 11th July 2001. This should have been supplied to me as part of a subject access request I made to your company 15th October 2008, As of today's date, Barclaycard have been unable to supply any such terms and conditions.

You also say your company disagrees with my legal point of view. I have therefore re-examined my evidence and indeed have found there to be a error.

In my schedule of charges I calculated the interest you have charged to be 23.9% purchase annual rate

The correct annual rate for cash being 26.8%.

I have enclosed a revised schedule of charges to reflect this.

 

If you do not accept my conditions for acceptance, or you do not respond within 10 days, the money transferred to my account should not be viewed as my acceptance and I will refund this sum back to you upon your request.

I trust this clarifies myposition. Yours faithfully

brindles

ACCOUNT NUMBER:

Final Response

I write further to the complaint you raised with regard to default charges applied to your account.

I am sorry that this matter has not been resolved to your satisfaction. I have reviewed your complaint and detail my findings below.

Our Understanding of your Complaint :

You feel that the charges incurred on your Barclaycard account are unfair and you have requested a refund of the charges plus interest .

Background to the events leading to your complaint:

Following publication of the report by the OFT, Barclaycard reduced our fees to £12.00 with effect from August 2006. Therefore, we agreed to credit your account with the difference between the charges that you incurred and £12.00.

Having checked our records, I can confirm that you have been charged fees totalling £833.76 including 8% interest; we refunded £328.32 including 8% interest of these charges.

Summary of our Internal Investigation:

In the circumstances, as a gesture of goodwill, I have credited your Barclaycard account with a further £505.44 including 8% interest representing the remaining charges. However, we believe that our charges are fair and reasonable.

 

 

I am sorry if this is not the outcome you wanted, however, I hope my explanation is helpful. For the purposes of the Financial Ombudsman Service you may regard this letter as our Final Response to your complaint.

You will find more information about the Financial Ombudsman Service in the enclosed leaflet. Please note you have six months from the date of this letter to refer to the Financial Ombudsman Service for investigation.

Yours sincerely Simon Wilkinson Barclaycard Customer Services

ENCLOSURE: Financial Ombudsman Service - "Explanatory Leaflet".

 

 

 

in responce i have sent another rejection letter but with the fiqures adjusted to into account the new offer.

 

I have also now sent the above letter before action kindly supplied by noomill. I edited out the default part as i am fully up to date with payments and have never been defaulted.

 

Well thats it, I know i have plundered my way through but seem to be getting there. Please point out my mistakes so i can do better next time.

waiting for barclay to reply...til then thanks everyone.

Grrr. Just posted reply and lost it - here goes again. :mad:

 

If you have space on the N1 for the full POC, enter them on the N1.

 

If not, make the POC a separate page headed as per the example and citing BB PLC t/a BC as the Defendant.

 

Attached to the N1 should be 2 separate schedules:-

 

Schedule 1 - As per the wording at the foot of the example.

 

Schedule 2 - Will be your updated SOC.

 

Both schedules will be headed at the top showing you as Claimant and BB PLC t/a BC as Defendant and will then show Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 respectively.

hi again,

i have completed form N1,schedule one and schedule two. I will file them at my county court tomorrow.

 

I have been going over and over the information on this site and i understand the process and my argument. I am confident with my arguement and am not bothered if they choose to defend, and although I would be nervious ,I dont mind going to court to argue the case.

 

All but 2 of the charges are before 2006, a fact i believe weakens any defence further. Well im going to keep on learning and be ready for the next step before i am there.

 

just one question please,

 

if they do turn up and defend and i begin to lose my argument,would the fact they do not have a valid cca support or weaken there defence?

would it be a good idea to slip this fact in during the process?

 

Thanks

Hi Brindles,

 

I personally don't think their failure to supply a valid Agreement affects your claim for refund of penalty charges.

 

Your claim will rely on your Court Bundle which you will need to prepare, to File at court and Serve on the Defendant, when the court directs this.

 

The Bundle will set out why you are entitled to the refund you seek together with the interest.

 

As long as this is complete, you should be able to get BC to agree to a settlement BEFORE the Heading Date.

 

You'd be wise to start to put the Court Bundle together in a document, ready for printing when required. There's a lot to include and you don't want to be struggling at the last minute.

Thanks noomill,

 

I handed my claim to the court today. so,here i go. I have subscribed to your thread, so i am foreward of there eleventh hour deals and unless advised otherwise,I AM GOING TO COURT.

 

Thanks slick

 

I have been in receipt of job seekers allowance since jan 09. I handed over form EX180 application for a fee remission. I was told the EX180 will be dealt with first, then my N1.

In other words, it will take a week or so longer to process my claim.

 

As i am on income based jsa i am confident a remission will be granted,so no further delays.

 

I will use this for the preperation of my court bundle. I still have a lot to understand so it looks like more sitting up till 3am with intermitent dizzy spells and blurry eyesight.lol.

 

Ok im going to crack on while i have the buzz,

 

thanks for all the help.

Hi all,

 

The court have posted my N1 back to me, Please provide proof of income based job seekers allowance.

 

arrgghh..I thought I had, Seems the proof I enclosed with the remission form only said my entitlement to job seekers allowance...not income based job seekers allowance:eek:.

 

Oh well, back to the job centre and ask them to get it right this time.

 

I will let you know when I have re-submitted my claim.

 

thanks everyone.
