    • Well the difference is that in all our other cases It was Kev who was trying to entrap the motorist so sticking two fingers up to him and daring him to try court was from a position of strength. In your case, sorry, you made a mistake so you're not in the position of strength.  I've looked on Google Maps and the signs are few & far between as per Kev's MO, but there is an entrance sign saying "Pay & Display" (and you've admitted in writing that you knew you had to pay) and the signs by the payment machines do say "Sea View Car Park" (and you've admitted in writing you paid the wrong car park ... and maybe outed yourself as the driver). Something I missed in my previous post is that the LoC is only for one ticket, not two. Sorry, but it's impossible to definitively advise what to so. Personally I'd probably gamble on Kev being a serial bottler of court and reply with a snotty letter ridiculing the signage (given you mentioned the signage in your appeal) - but it is a gamble.  
    • No! What has happened is that your pix were up-to-date: 5 hours' maximum stay and £100 PCN. The lazy solicitors have sent ancient pictures: 4 hours' maximum stay and £60 PCN. Don't let on!  Let them be hoisted by their own lazy petard in the court hearing (if they don't bottle before).
    • Thanks for all the suggestions so far I will amend original WS and send again for review.  While looking at my post at very beginning when I submitted photos of signs around the car park I noticed that it says 5 hours maximum stay while the signage sent by solicitor shows 4 hours maximum stay but mine is related to electric bay abuse not sure if this can be of any use in WS.
    • Not sure what to make of that or what it means for me, I was just about to head to my kip and it's a bit too late for legalise. When is the "expenditure occured"?  When they start spending money to write to me?  Or is this a bad thing (as "harsh" would imply)? When all is said and done, I do not have two beans to rub together, we rent our home and EVERYTHING of value has been purchased by and is in my wife's name and we are not financially linked in any way.  So at least if I can't escape my fate I can at least know that they will get sweet FA from me anyway   edit:  ah.. Sophia Harrison: Time bar decision tough on claimants WWW.SCOTTISHLEGAL.COM Time bar is a very complex area of law in Scotland relating to the period in which a claim for breach of duty can be pursued. The Scottish government...   This explains it like I am 5.  So, a good thing then because creditors clearly know they have suffered a loss the minute I stop paying them, this is why it is "harsh" (for them, not me)? Am I understanding this correctly?  
    • urm......exactly what you filed .....read it carefully... it puts them to strict proof to prove the debt is enforceable, so thus 'holds' their claim till they coughup or not and discontinue. you need to get readingthose threads i posted so you understand. then you'll know whats maybe next how to react or not and whats after that. 5-10 threads a day INHO. dont ever do anything without checking here 1st.

    • 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.

Paul. Mine has just been transferred to the Mercantile Court!

 

I suspect it won't get there.

 

Who transferred it? Did you apply for the transfer or was it the District Judge?

I got a letter with my cheque back for the AQ fee (only good thing about it) saying I did not have to pay as it was now being transferred to the Mercantile Court and to await further instructions and that there will be a prelim hearing on 7th Feb which I do not need to attend. It just all means that they can drag it out even longer. I started this claim in August and Im just about hacked off with it all now!

Have just been viewing this thread & i wish Xmas & New Year were over just so i know outcome. Fingers crossed 4 u guys! Am about to start my claim with NatWest so this has been veerrry helpful, my thx. Mercantile Court is for business claims & pretty heavy commercial stuff! usually claims can only be started in Mercantile Court if they exceed £200k. Are you a business, or is some part of your claim based on business charges? am not bein' nosy for sake of it, part of my claim against NatWest is for when i traded as a sole trader.

Guest ian cognito

A number of cases have been tranferred to the mercantile court in 'batches' hopefully because the lagal system is trying to force the banks into disclosure, failed up to now because the banks are still paying out before hearings.

 

Paul & mob, just to say we're still with you and wishing you everything you wish yourselves for the New Year xxx

Warhorse, my claim is only for £4,300 and nothing to do with a business.
. Thx for that. Just curious as I had business a/c & wondered if any1 else had familiar tale, but it didnt seem to matter to 'em from where they took the £££s. Good luck with your claim & Happy 'Prosperous' New Year!!!!

I have just finished reading this complete thread. It's been like a thriller novel. Trouble is, someone has ripped out the last page of the book????

 

Come on paulschieber what the hell is going on. Its been over a week since your last message. I am sure that I am not the only one on the edge of my seat waiting to hear if you have beaten the wicked witch of the NatWest.

 

Hopefully, you received the full amount and have been in a drunken stupor since (I know I would).

It is very unlikely that paul has been paid up as he would certainly have updated this thread for us all to see. It is more likely that nothing much has happened as yet.

 

Sorry stansfield, it was wishfull thinking with a hint of tongue in cheek.

 

I do however wish paul all the very best and hope he gets his claim in full.

I'm not really expecting anything before the hearing on 17th January but we live in hope!

The Cobbetslayer may have the evil witch of the Natwest on the ropes but I suspect she is just licking her wounds before the final skirmish.

 

It isn't over as they say, until the fat lady sings, so butter up your tonsils lard ass cos I'm coming to get you - in court next week if you have the bottle.

Well that's raised the stakes a bit. In the post this morning I have had this:

 

In the Mansfield County Court

The hearing of the claimant's application for the Defence To Be Struck Out will take place at 10:10 on the 17th January 2007.

That's a bit better than an application for an order to respond to my CPR Part 18 request.

 

I'll be off to sharpen my sword then:)

No chicken counting yet guys.

 

Being serious, I've got a week to prepare and I intend to make it stick this time but as it's not the first time I've been in court with Cobbetts I'm not going to make any predictions about the outcome. Over confidence can be a big handicap.

 

The one thing I do know is that I can't actually lose the case at this hearing but I can win it so it's time to focus on giving it the best I can on the day.

 

Only the judge can decide the outcome.
