    • T911, Nick, thanks, I got there in the end! Without boring you with the details, it is precisely the most ridiculous cases that end up being lost - because the Cagger knows the other party's case is rubbish so doesn't do the necessary work on their own case. G24 are well aware of double dipping.  They have either done it deliberately or else have cameras which can't handle multiple visits to the car park which G24 happily leave malfunctioning so the £££££ keep rolling in. Sadly most people aren't like you.  I've just read various reviews for the Retail Park on TripAdvisor and Parkopedia.  Virtually all of them are complaining about these unfair charges for daring to spend time & money shopping in a shopping centre.  Yet no-one is refusing to pay.  They moan but think they have been fined and cough up. G24 are unlikely to do court, but it's not impossible with two tickets. Try to get evidence that you were elsewhere at these times. Often retail parks will intervene, but I've Googled & Googled and cannot find an e-mail address for the place.  Could the manager of one of your favourite shops give you a contact e-mail address for the company that run the retail park? Right at the moment I'm supposed to be teaching someone who runs two shops at the local shopping centre, but I'm not as he has had to go to a meeting with the company that runs the shopping centre, so I know for a fact that these business relationships exist!!!
    • Afternoon DX, The files were in date order. How would I put them into an acceptable format? I'm not that pc literate.  
    • I think you need to tell us what actually happened. Your original post gives the impression that you were taken to court for a speeding offence. But you go on to say that you received no paperwork. So you could not have been summonsed for a speeding offence because the police had no evidence that you (or anybody else) was driving (and it seems you were not anyway). You were probably summonsed (or more likely received a Single Justice Procedure Notice) for "failing to provide the driver's details." You would not normally be banned for this offence if you were convicted - it carries six points. So did you have any earlier points which meant you were liable to a "totting up" ban?  If you were originally convicted (as it seems you might have been) how was that conviction set aside? Did you perform a Statutory Declaration? There is simply too much missing for any meaningful help to be given. It seems as if there may have been an error by the DVLA but before you consider suing those idiots until the cows come home, you need to explain exactly what has happened.

    • 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.

Won't speak to BOS on the phone, so they are now threatening to send 'a third party agent' to call on me at home and charge me for the privelege! How likely are they to actually do this? I know it's often an idle threat, but not always - has anyone had a visit from these jerks?

 

Does anyone have an address for BOS retail collections that isn't a P O box, or maybe a fax number? Want to send them the letter withdrawing their right to enter my property (the torte of trepass one) - would a P O box address suffice for this?

Hi in respect of:

 

Won't speak to BOS on the phone, so they are now threatening to send 'a third party agent' to call on me at home and charge me for the privelege! How likely are they to actually do this? I know it's often an idle threat, but not always - has anyone had a visit from these jerks?

 

Send this to the tossers.

 

Dear Sirs,

 

Please be advised that I am only prepared to communicate with you in writing. OFT rules and regulations clearly state that you can only visit me at my home if you make an appointment and I have no wish to make an appointment with you. There is only an implied license under English Common Law for people to be able to visit me on my property without express permission; the postman and people asking for directions etc (Armstrong v. Sheppard and Short Ltd [1959] 2 Q.B. per Lord Evershed M.R.).

 

Therefore take note that I revoke license under Common Law for you, or your representatives, to visit me at my property and if you persist in sending “doorstep callers” to my home, you will be reported for harassment and be liable for damages for a tort of trespass. You would also be liable for conspiring in a tort of trespass by acting in defiance of my instructions and sending someone to visit me nevertheless.

 

Should it be necessary, I will obtain an injunction.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

 

all the best dpick

Thanks, Firkin - best of luck to you and your husband, too. I'll keep this thread updated if there are any developments.

 

I'm not so worried about sending them off with their tail between their legs if they show up - I'm more than capable of that:D - it's just the embarrassment of your neighbours knowing your private business that I dread. Mind you, my immediate neighbours are lovely and would probably be sympathetic....

What are you doing on the computer. Get yourself to bed with a hot toddy, lemsip and a hot water bottle you poor thing. Ah yes them pink pigs from MBNA- I reckon they have taken a picture of one of their phone monkeys and put it on these letters- the personal touch:D

Lol, that's the second time you've made me laugh out loud, Fedup; you are a tonic.

 

Not sure that smiley little pink piggy can work for MBNA though - he looks far too genial:D

 

A hot toddy sounds a very good idea; will toddle off on my wobbly legs to make one, methinks.

Hope you're feeling better Underdog. Check out the OFT guidance on Debt collection, particularly Section 2 part 2.6 j - "acting in a way likely to be publicly embarrassing to the debtor either deliberately or through lack of care..." The full guidance document can be downloaded frm the OFT website, very interesting reading!!!:-D

Hiya Angel - another cred in common; we made all the same mistakes, didn't we?:D Wonder if we'll get a doorstep call from the same thug, lol? If he shows up before christmas, I'll give him a card and tell him to pass it on to angel - he'll think I'm a nutter and beat a hasty retreat: that's one way to get rid of 'em.

 

Keep us posted on any results your letter gets; always assuming they can actually read - is it just me or does anyone else half expect to get a letter scrawled in crayon from them one day?

 

Be lucky - see you on the next thread:D
