    • Not really. I just wrote it based upon my credit file data with screenshots and stuff.  Also referring to multiple data points. You need to read before sending or writing it.    I have plenty of experience in this stuff so takes me half hour to write something like this. For you itll take an afternoon probably. An additional day with it on your CRA wont cause a problem.     Reference Material; ICO Credit File Guide - https://ico.org.uk/media/your-data-matters/documents/1282/credit-explained-dp- guidance.pdf ICO Main Page For Credit - https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/credit/ CMF Limitation Act 1980 - https://www.checkmyfile.com/articles/the-limitation-act-1980-and-debt-time-limits.htm Gov Limitations Act 1980 - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1980/58/2023-11-18 (Latest Version) Transunion 6 Years - https://www.transunion.co.uk/consumer/credit-report-help/how-long-does-information-stay-on-my-credit-report-for Equifax 6 Years - https://help.equifax.co.uk/EquifaxOnlineHelp/s/article/Howlongdoesadefaultedorsettledaccountstayinmyreport Experian 6 Years - https://www.experian.co.uk/consumer/guides/defaults.html#:~:text=A default will stay on,you still%20owe%20them%20money
    • Thanks fkofilee , by any chance is there a templete for guidance that i could use to help me write the complaint?
    • Hi everyone,  There were many topics on this issue in the past. May I please have an update if anyone managed to buy or sell the house with the leasehold air space on it? would the bank lend the mortgage?  If I was not informed about the complications when selling the house. instead, they told me that this would add value to the house and sell faster which is the opposite. Can I file the case and dispute it for mis-sold and misrepresentation?  I am in the year 9th and I was not aware of the issue until I wanted to sell my house. There has been no communication since I signed the contract. The company has never contacted or updated me on how much energy the panels generated how much I used etc.    This is a free panel from the government schemes, run by  Freetricity.   Thank 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.

Today I received a letter from ECP demanding £50 payment (raised from £30) as I had apparently ignored their first letter!!!

 

I know this seems a little vague, but I don't even know what I did wrong, the "crime" was described as "other"!!

 

1. I parked in the bay, paid for a ticket, and left before the alloted time ran out.

2. There was no "parking ticket" on the car when I returned.

3. I didn't receive the "first" letter they sent me.

4. As the "offense" was over a month ago I haven't kept the pay and display ticket.

 

I am going to send them this letter:

 

Dear Sirs,

 

Re: Your letter dated [dd/mmmm/yyyy] Reference[#]

 

I acknowledge receipt of your captioned letter. It seems that you have got my details from the DVLA and I confirm I am the keeper of the vehicle in question. You need to take this matter up with the driver concerned.

 

In the meantime I absolutely deny your claim that the amount claimed, or any amount at all, is due to you from me.

 

Yours faithfully

 

 

With a bit added in there about us being out of the country for 2 months so further correspondence will be impossible.

We are actually out of the country for 2 months and therefore any further letters will go unanswered until we return.

 

I'm just glad I found this site in time.

It will make no difference whether you send the letter or not. They will most likely not even read it and certainly won't have any regard for you being out of the country.

 

Next letter will be the standard "your appeal has not been successful".

 

Save the stamp and don't bother sending them anything.

I just want to send it so it's "on record".

 

They can go **** them selves after that.

OK, we got back from France to a letter demanding who the driver was (and lots of other crap) we had to respond in 7 days "or else"..........well we didn't respond as we were not here!!!

 

Today I received a letter from BRINX DEBT COLLECTION SERVICES stating they will start litigation unless payment is received within 5 working days.

 

I intend to ignore this letter also, but as both of us are out of work my wife wants me to check with you guys to check it's the right thing to do. What we don't need is an even bigger bill/fine if that is the wrong thing to do.

 

They STILL have the "offense" down as "other" so I don't even know what the driver of the car was supposed to have done wrong!!!

 

TIA.

"Brinx" collections?

 

That's a new one on me, they generally use an outfit called "Controlaccount"

 

Ah! I know!

 

Perhaps "Controlaccount" are so successful at collecting for Euro Crap Arks they've had to farm some work out to "Brinx"!

 

I'll bet that's the case; now you can ignore "Euro", "Controlaccount", and "Brinx".

 

Sort of makes you feel quite powerful and important, doesn't it!

Just to keep you up to date:

 

We received another letter from BRINX DEBT COLLECTION SERVICES dated 19.01.2009 stating this was our very last chance to pay up.........I ignored it.

 

Yesterday I received a letter from "Controlaccount" telling me that they are under instruction from their client to arrange for a civil claim to be issued against me...........and this is our very last chance to pay up (again).

 

I think I'll just ignore this one too.

 

This is getting silly..........even if it does go to court, how the hell am I expected to remember who was driving the car back in September 2008 (seven months ago already)!!!!!

We know Control Account. Euro use them I think.

 

Not sure how they can organise a civil claim when it's not their alleged debt! (not that they' know what to do anyway)

 

Continue to ignore. These clowns have wasted a bit of money of stamps now - ha.

 

No chance of court.

As above. Euro Parks are just like any other PPC but will send you quite a few letters before giving up. They usually do use Control Account as thier DCA but i have noticed that they have also started to use Brinx just as often. Its interesting that you have had letters from both as its usually one or the other. Nevertheless feel free to ignore. I think you have another 2 letters at most before they disappear.

hi, me to have been receiving letters from brinx in relation to a euro car parks PCN,and guess what brinx used to be called euro car parks,check out the companies house website and you will see.So you are really still receiving letters from euro car parks but under a different name just to scare into thinking its a proper agency.Check out control account aswell see how many times hey have changed their name,also take note of the word DORMANT against both these companies accounts.
