    • I'm at work now but promise to look in later. Can you confirm how you paid the first invoice?  It wasn't your fault if the signal was so poor and there was no alternative way to pay.  There must be a chance of reversing the charge with your bank.  There are no guarantees but Kev  https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/09766749/officers  has never had the backbone to do court so far.  Not even in one case,  
    • OK  so you may not have outed yourself if you said "we". No matter either way you paid. Snotty letter I am surprised that they were so quick off the mark threatening Court. They usually take months to go that far. No doubt that as you paid the first one they decided to strike quickly and scare you into paying. Dear Chuckleheads  aka Alliance,  I am replying to your LOCs You may have caught me the first time but that is  the end. What a nasty organisation you are. You do realise that you now have now no reason to continue to pursue me after reading my appeal since you know that my car was not cloned. Any further pursuit will end up with a complaint to the ICO that you are breaching my GDPR.  Please confirm that you have removed my details from your records. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I haven't gone for a snotty letter this time as they know that you paid for your car in another car park. So using a shot across their bows .  If it doesn't deter them and they send in the debt collectors or the Court you will then be able to get more money back from them for  breachi.ng your data protection than they will get should they win in Court-and they have no chance of that as you have paid. So go in with guns blazing and they might see sense.  Although never underestimate how stupid they are. Or greedy.
    • Thank you. Such a good point. They did issue all 3 before I paid though. I only paid one because I didn’t have proof of parking that time, only for two others.    Unfortunately no proof of my appeal as it was just submitted through a form on their website and no copy was sent to me. I only have the reply. I believe I just put something like “we made the honest mistake of using the incorrect parking area on the app” and that’s it. Thanks again for your help. 
    • They are absolute chuckleheads. You paid but because you entered a different car park site also belonging to them they are pursuing you despite them knowing what you had done. It would be very obvious to everyone, including Alliance that your car could not have been in two places at the same time. Thank you for posting the PCN so quickly making it a pity that you appealed since there are so many things wrong with it that you as keeper are not liable to pay the charge. They rarely accept appeals since that would mean they lose money but they have virtually no chance of beating you in Court. Very unlikely that they will take you to Court given the circumstances. Just in case you didn't out yourself as the driver could you please post up your appeal.
    • Jasowter I hope that common sense prevails with Iceland and the whole matter can be successfully ended. I would perhaps not have used a spell checker just to prove the dyslexia 🙂 though it may have made it more difficult to read. I noticed that you haven't uploaded the original PCN .Might not be necessary if the nes from Iceland is good. Otherwise perhaps you could get your son to do it by following the upload instructions so that we can appeal again with the extra ammunition provided by the PCN. Most of them rarely manage to get the wording right which means that you as the keeper are not liable to pay the charge-only the driver is and they do not know the name and address of the driver. So that would put you both in the clear if the PCN is non compliant.

    • 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 there. This is my first posting and I need a bit of advice please!

 

I cca'd Barclaycard and it's been 12 working days now since they received the request (sent rec del).

 

This is for a credit card which was originally a Goldfish one, taken out around 10 years ago I think, possibly around the time when Goldfish was first launched.

 

What do I do now? Do I just wait or would it be better to go down the SAR route?

 

Many thanks!!

HI,

If there are charges on your account then an SAR may be the way to go. If not then you could send the A/C in dispute letter but why should you be telling them what they should already know.

Whichever way you go BC have defaulted and you are quite within your rights to stop paying them.

Personally I would just wait and obviously now stop paying them.

They are likely to send you an automated letter informing you that you haven't paid them.

Still no word on my cca from Barclays but a £10 M & S voucher arrived in the post from them last week with a standard letter about me being a good customer! The other thing is they haven't yet cashed my £1.00 cheque for the cca. Letter definitely arrived ages ago as did it recorded delivery.

 

One payment missed now but have put the money aside just to be on the safe side!

Got a statement today from Barclays with late payment charge added for missed payment at end of December. How do I stop them adding charges? 12+2 days was up before Christmas and I also sent the 'in dispute' letter. Just got a call from Barclays this evening. Was brave and told them I wasn't in!! Had stated in my letters I could only be contacted in writing so perhaps they can't read! Still haven't cashed my £1.00 cheque even though it was signed for ages ago. Does this matter? No sign of cca......

Becca,

dont worry about it, the account is in dispute,

they will carry on adding those late charges on no matter what,cause they simply ignore anything you tell them,

but it will do them no good, they can add as many charges as they want,

cause until they come up with your agreement they cant enforce it,

and even if by some miracle they did come up with your original agreement and it was a fully compliant one ,(even bigger miiracle) :Dyou would claim all those charges back anyway.

 

The account will prob be passed on to mercers when they realise you aint going to pay up .it took them 3 months to pass my accounts onto mercers

 

Dont speak to barclaycard or mercers on the phone, they will bully you and try to convince you its in your interests to pay even though the account is in dispute

Simply refuse to answer their security questions and tell them to put everything in writing and put the phone down on them,

Dont worry about the non cashing of the £1 fee, they still havnt cashed mine from october,

You have proof they signed for it, its their problem ,youve done all you can, just sit back and wait for their next move,

Well, the calls have started! 3 to my landline, 2 of which I did't answer, a text to my mobile and a call to my moblile. Don't know how they got the number as it's pay as you go and I only give the number to family and friends. I didn't realise it was them and answered it. Once I knew who it was I started asking Mr Barcays how the weather was, had he had a nice Christmas etc. He started getting quite annoyed and said he wanted to talk about my account so I said can't possibly do that, it's in dispute and I only deal with finances by letter. He told me I was entitled to my opinion but the calls would continue so I said I would look forward to our daily chats and I did so hope his job was safe! I think he thought I was a bit mad and he hung up. Am keeping a note of the calls. Will look forward to the next one....

Help needed!

 

My 8 year old has a pay as you go mobile phone which her uncle gave her just to take pictures on etc. It's only ever had credit put on once, at the end of last year. Don't know how, but Barclayshark have managed to get the number for this and have started ringing it! How do I stop this! It just rang a few minutes ago and I answered and told them this wasn't the phone of the person they were trying to reach so please stop calling it.

 

The calls to the house are increasing but I can cope with that as I just ignore them, but calling an 8 year old's phone is out of order. Any ideas on what I should do about this would be great.

 

Thanks

Hello Becca00!

 

Don't know how, but Barclayshark have managed to get the number for this and have started ringing it!

 

Three guesses how they got the number:

 

Give up?

 

Here's a clue or three:

 

CallCredit

Experian

Equifax

 

They got my Mobile Number too, and I never, ever, gave that out to anyone except family and close friends. And I never used it to call anyone that could've grabbed the number.

 

The Debt Industry controls our Data, and can roam around and poke about in our Data in many more ways than they will ever admit.

 

Cheers,

BRW

Just a thought but how did you load the credit on the phone? pay by debit or credit card and its linked via your credit report.. I could be overstating the lengths they will go to but I doubt it.

 

If you complain to the OFT and ensure they know this is the phone of a minor CCing in Barclaysharks it might have some effect but to be honest once they have a phone number chances are the calls will continue :-(

You can get software to barr incoming calls on your mobile phone like MCleaner.

 

Personally I would phone the police and inform them that Barclaycard are phoning your 8 year old daughter.

When you buy a new PAYG 'phone or SIM card some providers 'invite' you to register, offering a few quids worth of free calls. When you do your details and number are added to a directory which is then sold on to anyone who is willing to part with a few Shekels.

Hi,

I would be making a formal complaint about their actions and enclosing this letter:

 

Harassment by telephone - Consumer Wiki

 

Ringing an 8 year olds phone is dispicable and needs to be stopped.

If you know your local beat officer, ask them if they'll ring Barclays on your behalf.

Thanks for all the advice. I paid for the credit on the phone with my debit card so perhaps that how they got the number.

 

Emailed a complaint last night stating I would report this to the relevant authorities and funnily enough haven't had any calls yet today on either the mobile or my house phone. Have usually had at least 2 by now. Wonder how long that will last.

 

Haven't made any PPI payments or done a SAR. Was sitting tight until I got a reply to my cca request. Am expecting a copy of my Goldfish application or the like and then a letter stating they don't have to supply copy of original. Seems to be their latest tactic!! I think I'll wait for that then do a SAR.

 

Many thanks for all your help. Nice to know I'm not alone!

Just a quick update. The calls to the mobile have completely stopped - that won't stop me making an official complaint to the relevent bodies. The ones to the house are continuing but don't seem to be quite as often. Only 4 yesterday but I'm sure they'll increase again!

 

Yesterday when I checked my bank account my £1.00 cheque for the cca request was showing so after almost 2 months they've finally cashed it. Must check my next statement to make sure they haven't put it towards the credit card account.

 

Quick question to anyone who knows. If they manage somehow to produce an enforcable cca at some point down the line, would I have to pay all the payments I've missed while the account is 'in dispute' or would payments just start from when they produce the document?

 

Many thanks.

In that case you would have to pay all the money you owe. The 'dispute time' wouldn't remove your obligation to pay, I'm afraid. But cross that bridge when (if) you come to it.

 

They will mostly likely put the £1 towards your account. That's standard practice to avoid Statue Barred coming into effect later down the line.

 

Any silent calls from automated dialling computers? If so and you get too many a complaint to OFCOM is in order.

They would start from when they produce the agreement. You would not have to back date payments.

It doesn't avoid it because you in no way acknowledged the debt and made it quite clear what the payment was for.

In the past i have read that when an agreement is eventually found the whole debt is again liable? Once they find an agreement i understood it to mean, that's it, end of. The whole debt is enforceable and therefore payable?

It doesn't avoid it because you in no way acknowledged the debt and made it quite clear what the payment was for.

 

That's if you signed the back of the cheque (CCA payment only) and or added to the text of the accompanying letter 'this is to be used to CCA and not to be put towards the account.

I'm thinking later down the line, if it goes to Court, all you have is a copy of that letter and a statement from the creditor showing you made a 'payment' towards the account. A Judge is most likely going to side with the strongest evidence i would assume: That statement showing a payment?
