    • Thanks for that. I will give them till Tuesday. Thanks for your help, very much appreciated. 
    • Ok thanks for that, well spotted and all duly noted. Yes they did eventually submit those docs to me after a second letter advising them I was contacting the ICO to make a formal complaint for failing to comply with an earlier SAR that they brushed off as an "administrative error" or something. When I sent the letter telling them I was in contact with the information commissioner to lodge the complaint, the original PCN etc quickly followed along with their excuse!
    • its not about the migrants .. Barrister Helena Kennedy warns that the Conservatives will use their victory over Rwanda to dismantle the law that protects our human rights here in the UK.   Angela Rayner made fun of Rishi Sunak’s height in a fiery exchange at Prime Minister’s Questions, which prompted Joe Murphy to ask: just how low will Labour go? .. well .. not as low as sunak 
    • From #38 where you wrote the following, all in the 3rd person so we don't know which party is you. When you sy it was your family home, was that before or after? " A FH split to create 2 Leasehold adjoining houses (terrace) FH remains under original ownership and 1 Leasehold house sold on 100y+ lease. . Freeholder resides in the other Leasehold house. The property was originally resided in as one house by Freeholder"
    • The property was our family home.  A fixed low rate btl/ development loan was given (last century!). It was derelict. Did it up/ was rented out for a while.  Then moved in/out over the years (mostly around school)  It was a mix of rental and family home. The ad-hoc rents covered the loan amply.  Nowadays  banks don't allow such a mix.  (I have written this before.) Problems started when the lease was extended and needed to re-mortgage to cover the expense.  Wanted another btl.  Got a tenant in situ. Was located elsewhere (work). A broker found a btl lender, they reneged.  Broker didn't find another btl loan.  The tenant was paying enough to cover the proposed annual btl mortgage in 4 months. The broker gave up trying to find another.  I ended up on a bridge and this disastrous path.  (I have raised previous issues about the broker) Not sure what you mean by 'split'.  The property was always leasehold with a separate freeholder  The freeholder eventually sold the fh to another entity by private agreement (the trust) but it's always been separate.  That's quite normal.  One can't merge titles - unless lease runs out/ is forfeited and new one is not created/ granted. The bridge lender had a special condition in loan offer - their own lawyer had to check title first.  Check that lease wasn't onerous and there was nothing that would affect good saleability.  The lawyer (that got sacked for dishonesty) signed off the loan on the basis the lease and title was good and clean.  The same law firm then tried to complain the lease clauses were onerous and the lease too short, even though the loan was to cover a 90y lease extension!!

    • 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.

Capital One and "agreement" are a contradiction in terms - they forgot to make any. This is the usual non-enforceable rubbish that everyone has had - not a prescribed term in sight. I've been ignoring them since last March and saved myself a lot of hassle by not writing to them.

Completely agree ;)

Hi Sunflower,

I haven't caught up with your thread, but if it's any help...

THEY'RE SHOUTING AT YOU!!!

- in a not-very-cunningly-disguised way.

Read the letter again, and note the word 'may'. Everything that follows is a threat of a possibility.

It's head-monster tactics. They want to alarm you.

DON'T LET THEM!! :) xx

Capital One's Station Street address is right next to the Benefits Agency and just round the corner from the Job Centre. How handy is that for the staff?;)

I have had 3 (at last count) reconstructed 'credit agreements' from Crap One. The first was an 'example of the one you'll get', the next was 'the agreement like the example', the third was a whole new one. Unfortunately, the only one I signed was the original application form.

Last I heard from them was a default notice. Which they 'kindly' offered to do last year if I couldn't increase the monthly payments.

I have repeatedly asked them about 'Verity Billson' - I think it's a made-up name. To me it sounds like a joke name - as in 'verity' = truth, 'billson' = bills? 'True bills'?:p

I don't have time to tackle them now, but as you know I live in Notts. Capital One is just a bus ride away, if anyone wants a picnic there.;)

We will not be intimidated.

Unfortunately I've been paying them. I've been on a DMP with CCCS but I've just come off that to go it alone after a disagreement with them (when they refused to stop paying a couple of creditors who are in CCA default). CCS will make a payment on 1st March on my behalf, and that's when payments will stop.

 

Ironically, they did put the Robbers Way payment on hold for me; I haven't paid them for three months but unfortunately a payment will go to them on 1st March :(

LJ, why are CCCS making a payment 1st March? Can't you stop your payment going to CCCS?

Read your thread, see what you mean LJ. We had a similar situation with Payplan, but were able to cancel our payment to them in time and they were fairly okay.

As I live in Nottingham I can meet you all off the bus. The Broadmarsh Bus Station - where most coaches arrive - just happens to be over the road from Crap One... ;):p

The National Express coaches I've used are not easy access, but the railway station is also very close... Capital One is on Station Street - as in (Train) Station Street! Plus the trams stop at Capital One! :D

Hey sosumi

 

Could you post yourself outside with a placard asking Ellie Renshaw to wave from her window, just so we can be assured she's real?:D

 

Perhaps you could use a sandwich board instead and write 'payment enclosed' on it - she'd be down in a heartbeat rifling through your pockets:lol:

Ooh that's tempting...

I'd also like to know if 'Verity Billson' is real. ;)

Is there any offices to rent opposite their place, cause then we could put notices in the windows so they could see them, nice messages like

"Hello why are you treating me like this Ellie"

:D I think the DSS office is on Station Street - poss. next to Cap One? And opposite is just the wall around the railway station.

We could do a placard. ;)
