    • best to be sure it is a N279. not that they pull any underhand stunts of course   but we have seen it. your bal is now £0 but we'll still attend court as you'll probably not as we've said we've closed the account and we'll get a judgement by default. dx  
    • Sorry, last bit They had ticked that they wanted the application dealt with without a hearing, so is there any relevance that a date and time to attend said hearing has been sent out ?
    • I've not seen it personally but I think that's the letter Dad has had from Overdales. I'll see it tomorrow. It states balance: zero
    • Agreed as you clearly have little faith in your star runners, mind you - I have less - conditional on the welcher clause I defined being part, and that we are talking about the three defined candidates: Tice Farage and Anderson - not anyone anywhere as reform might (outside chance) get someone decent to run somewhere. If any of the three dont run - they count as a loss.   welcher clause. "If either of us loses and doesn't pay - we agree the site admin will change the welchers avatar permanently to a cows ass - specific cows ass avatar chosen by the winner - with veto by site on any too offensive - requiring another to be chosen  (or of course, DP likely allows you can delete your account and all your worthless posts to cheapskate chicken out and we'll just laugh) "
    • This is the full details, note they have made an error (1) in that paragraph 5 stated 14 days before hearing not 7. Surely a company of their size would proof read and shouldn't make basic errors like that 1) The Claimant respectfully applies for an extension of time to comply with paragraph 5 of the Order of Deputy District Judge XXX dated XX March 2024 i.e. the evidence upon which the parties intend to rely shall be filed and served not later than 7-days before the hearing. 2) The Claimant seeks a short extension of time allow them to further and properly investigate data provided to them by Royal Mail which is of importance to the proceedings and determination of the Claim. 3) The Claimant and Royal Mail have an information sharing agreement. Under the agreement, Royal Mail has provided data to the Claimant in respect of the matters forming the basis of these proceedings. The Claimant requires more time to consider this data and reconcile it against their own records. The Claimant may need to seek clarification and assurances from Royal Mail before they can be confident the data is correct and relevant to the proceedings i.e. available to be submitted as evidence. 4) The Claimant's witness is currently out of the office on annual leave and this was not relayed to DWF Law until after the event which has caused a further unfortunate delay. 5) The Court has directed parties to file and serve any evidence upon which they intend to rely not later than 14- days before the hearing i.e. by 4pm on 6 June 2024. Regrettably, the Claimant will have insufficient time to finalise their witness evidence and supporting exhibits as directed. We therefore respectfully apply to extend the time for filing/serving evidence so that the evidence upon which the parties intend to rely by filed and served not later than 7-days before the hearing i.e. by 4pm on 13 June 2024. 6) This application is a pre-emptive one for an extension of time made prior to the expiry of the deadline. In considering the application, the Court is required to exercise its broad case management powers and consider the overriding objective. 7) In circumstances where applications are made in time, the Court should be reticent to refuse reasonable applications for extensions of time which neither imperil hearing dates nor disrupt proceedings, pursuant to Hallam Estates v Baker [2014] EWCA Civ 661. 😎 It is respectfully submitted that the application is made pursuant to the provisions of CPR 3.1(2)(a) and in accordance with the overriding objective to ensure the parties are on an equal footing when presenting their cases to the Court. The requested extension of time does not put the hearing at risk and granting the Application will not be disruptive to the proceedings.   They have asked for extension Because 2) The Claimant requires additional time to consider and reconcile data received from Royal Mail which is relevant to these proceedings against their own data and records in order to submit detailed evidence in support of this Claim.

    • 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 All,

Some councils have a licensing policy which has to be complied with for electrical work in buildings etc that the public has access,no doubt the council chap enlightened you about this,and as I said previously some insurance companies insist on contractors who belong to outfits like ECA.Do you know who their insurers are Patma.

Had a good chat (off the record) with a gentleman at the Council who is in a position to know. Sorry I can't tell you much but there was some not inconsiderable element of surprise expressed that PCAD had invited US(UK)ltd to 'repair' or replace the barrier since US(UK) ltd were not and never have been listed as a company that Plymouth City Council or any related department would ever use for barrier repair or replacement work. They were not authorised by the Council for this type of work and had no registered expertise in this field. The Council do obviously have contractors they use specifically for barrier repair work and replacement but we can state categorically that US (UK) were not and never were prior to their untimely demise a contractor that Plymouth City Council deemed qualified to attempt barrier repairs or replacement.

 

This probably goes some way towards explaining why they were unable to flick a reset switch on the logic board, misdiagnosed not once but twice, found impossible faults and then opted for the idiotproof repair:- Total replacement. These barriers are simply secured by four bolts and plugged in, the sort of job that an infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of spanners could achieve in just a couple of hours........ Certainly much easier than having to understand how one works.

 

Other matters were discussed but out of respect to the gentleman I cannot divulge them here.

 

Hopefully he wont mind me telling you that he believes the entire case to be a crock peppered with anomalies and is shocked that PCAD have done this to Fred.

 

I'd just like to say what a positive step I believe this chat with the council gentleman was.

I think TLD deserves loads of credit for doing this and so does the unamed council gentleman, who I send my grateful thanks to.:)

To be honest after experiencing so much that's less than upfront and honest from the claimants in this case, it's very encouraging to find that someone in the council has taken the time to show an interest in what Fred has been suffering for 3 and a half years now.

It still baffles me how anyone, could think they could get away with such blatant fraud and it makes me wonder if there have been any other victims out there.

I know Fred would be more than happy to present his evidence to anyone at the council who would like to see it.

I can also add that the police have been very helpful today too, and will be in touch again early next week.

A very welcome letter was received by Fred yesterday,from a high ranking member of the Police legal services department.

He writes to confirm the gist of a telephone message and just to give a taste of the contents I will quote a little.

 

"I write further to the telephone message I left for you recently. I rang as I promised I would. This letter it to confirm not only that, but also the fact that I am now putting your case to the top of my priorities."

 

He explains that certain information is coming in which should help him to make progress and he goes on to say that he is re-doubling his efforts to locate the original footage shown to the police and other items."

 

I already happen to know, having spoken to him since he wrote the letter that the search has proved successful. We should know a lot more early in the coming week.:D

But make sure Fred remembers to duck at the finishing line, just in case the Judge has re-loaded the Starting Pistol with real bullets instead of blanks! :eek:

 

Provided Fred and Team are always ready for any and all unexpected dirty moves, he'll win this race.

 

Cheers,

Hopefully the same doctrine was applied at Plymouth County Court on Friday afternoon too, and it's not like that Judge was er... particularly short of facts to do the speaking either.;)

The latest applications we'd made to court and the complaint letters about the claimant's conduct sent to the court manager were in front of the judge. We're waiting for the results of that now.:)

A quick snippet of news is that LD have made an offer to settle.

No chance of course, but interesting they should bother.

As if, indeed. And good on Fred for not giving any quarter.

More info to follow.
Waiting with baited breath, as always.

 

Let's see what further holes they can dig.

Ha ha

 

 

Me thinks that LD appreciate that they are now in the smelly stuff!

 

LD are acting for the Claimants and they want to settle, I bet they do!

 

Bit of a shame for LD and PCAD that time travel was never perfected! :D
