    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

    • 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 Minnimes,

 

Re the old account, what's happened about this.

 

How much, roughly, is still owed and are you repaying anything to it now.

 

Have you checked what penalties you've been charged on the a/c. You can reclaim these to reduce the amount owed on the card. Read the Reclaim Guide in Link No1 in my signature below to find out more about an SAR.

 

As soon as you send a CCA request for the new card, the a/c limit will be reduced to prevent further spending on the a/c. :)

hi, at present im not paying any thing to the acount as my hubby is on sick so our income has dropped massively, i have tried to sort out an arrangment but they wont agree to it, so the solution account was closed and the balance transfered to the new littlewoods card. i wasnt told this was happening, the first i knew of it was when a littlewoods card came in the post and i called to question it. i never signed anything to do with this account, would it be enforceable? i dont get statments off them any more so not sure whats happening re charges etc,but saying that they havent been to pushy about getting payment so maybe they know their in te wrong here? a friend of a friend who works at a debt managment comp said it looks as if they maybe trying to get round the contracts by opening the new account after 2007, sorry to ramble but i really dont know what im talking about, i hope this makes sense any more help would be great, julie

Hi Minnimes,

 

You could try asking again for them to accept reduced pay'ts and to suspend interest. Take a look here for the site lettters which address this - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/debt-bailiffs-advice/20758-creditors-dcas-letter-templates.html

 

If you don't have statements for the last 6 years, an SAR will get you details of any penalty charges applied to the account. You can reclaim these.

 

If they won't co-operate in helping you, send a CCA request (Letter N in the above link).

 

If they can't provide the nec'y Credit agreement, they should (eventually) stop adding interest and charges to the a/c.

 

You can then repay the debt at a rate which you can afford and they'll be unable to get the debt enforced in court.

ok, cca posted today, just got to wait now but what do i do if they dont respond? id like to be ready.

See what happens. :cool:

 

This will take time. They won't necessarily respond within the time they should. And they won't just agree with your assertions.

 

You may have DCA's ringing you day and night - keep an accurate log of any such calls, for later use if required. :)

thanks for the reply, they cant call even if they wanted to as they dont have my number,some one rang me last yr and i told then to remove my phone number from their information and only constact me by letter,ive not had any calls since so hoping i should avoid this. do you know how it stands that the card numbers differ? ive kept the old card so i can prove its not the same as the littlewoods card they sent me. if they do call me i will note the date time persons name and then tell them im not prepared to disscuss it over the phone and to put it in writing, is this the right way to go about it?

Yup, that sounds just fine.

 

Re the card a/c nos., let's see how they respond and take it from there.

im starting to think its the clam befor the storm,
Thats a wicked typo minnimes - the CLAM :D

they got my letter on the 18th, so what do i do now?

From what I've read, now you do nothing - the ball's in their court.

 

If they want anything from you, they need to produce a valid Credit Agreement for the present a/c.

 

I still think you're right - this will be the clam before the storm. ;)

Hi Minnimes,

 

According to my maths, you have to allow 12 working days + 2 for delivery so it's too early to bother with chasing yet.

 

Wait till next week and see if they've replied at all. :)

ok this moring i had a nice default letter from mercer, first time theyve reared their ugly head, nice introduction. so i rang them, the woman was actually really nice, said it hadnt been applied to my account yet (didnt say it would be either) and they have no record of my cca request, of course they dont. she says i should send it again. i have proof that i sent it and they recieved it at their end so is their really any need? not sure where to go with this now, i did question the fact i signed up for a soultion card not littlewoods, she said she thinks its just the account numbers that changed butkeep asking for my cca "cause you never know how that will work out" is that a hint that they dont have it?

Hi Minnimes,

 

It's a waste of a good phone call ringing DCA's.

 

Drop them a line saying they cannot apply a default when they've failed to supply your Credit Agreement. And if they do, you'll make a formal complaint to the FOS and to Trading Standards.

 

Oh, and send them a copy of your CCA requet letter saying you have confirmation that they rec'd it on DATE. :)

i did tell her they couldnt do it as the account is now in dispute but she's saying they havent got it (cca) i can prove they do. and she also said she can act on the account as it hasnt been sold its just been passed to her and they account is still with littlewoods not sure how that works. will send them a letter anyway but i think they will still apply the default.

You're right, they may Default you anyway just now, but best to avoid this if at all possible.

 

Don't worry about what she said on the phone - if you called and spoke to someone else tomorrow, you'd get a completely different opinion.

 

You have the proof required to show they rec'd the CCA request, so send off the letter as I suggested above. :)
