    • Just a typo change that I'd make for the last line. Maybe also add something that says "I assume you will be fully aware that you cannot rely on a clause of a contract that you do not produce."
    • Hello, Firstly, and most importantly I am sorry for your loss. I would go back to the bank with the death certificate and ask them to step in. Remind them firmly but politely that there is no limit for DD claims   Please let us know how you get on.
    • My wife is the named person to his bank account with him having Dementia being his daughter (I say named person she still is but he recently passed away and the deputyship application has now being stopped by the solicitor as it's no longer needed) We've only just got the Death Certificate so the bank will be the next step informing them. She went to the bank and explained the situation but even being his named person the bank said she didn't have the power to stop DD without any legal documents (virgin money) was the bank. She could have copies of bank statements that was about it.
    • I see you said you tried to stop the DD but it seems that didn't work. May I please ask why that didn't work? You should be asking your bank to cancel the DD and I don't see why they would have objected, hopefully you can clarify this. I agree that you should be making a claim here against your bank and ask them for a DD refund. There is no timeframes for this.
    • JK: Yeah That's correct. We left rent payment coming out of his bank account from January 2023 - August 2023 until we could find somewhere to sort out his belongings which was fine. I tried to give notice a few times from August 2023 asking for advice from Sanctuary housing how we went about this explaining his condition and that he was in a Nursing home from December 2022. I explained we don't have any legal powers to his account like POT but were in the process of going for Deputyship and that I was the named person to act on his behalf to speak with Santuary housing. I said we could provide details of his condition and proof he was now in a nursing home with date he moved in. This went ignored despite repeated attempts to contact them until a housing manager contacted us end of February 2024 and notice was finally accepted with his tenancy coming to an end March 22 2024. Although they have continued to take rental payments for the flat despite someone else living in it from the 1st April. I wasn't aware payments were still being taken till I checked his May banks statements. I had asked them to back date rental payments to August 2023 when I gave notice rather than just giving notice in March 2024 but they've ignored that bit. I don't see why they shouldn't give it back they've taken money they shouldn't have. Thanks DX, I wasn't aware we could do that for that length of time. I'll ask my wife to check with the bank this week

    • 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.

Have you gone to the ICO? Looks like it is in their in interest to get this sorted. I am surprised the FOS did not get more involved, you may have to issue court action, a few people are going down this route.

There is provision under the data protection act for compensation.

However since you cite damages and distress,you will have to prove the level and nature of this,together with any financial loss or burdens.

This is the difficult part.Also credit searches are only kept on file for a limited time,which makes it difficult as well.

Any rejection letters for things that you have applied for but not been given citing credit checks are good to begin with.Letters from debt collectors or baliffs are also good,though I dont suppose you will have had them.

Its a process of building up a case,because the level of any award,would be at the discretion of a Judge.

That discretion ultimately will rely on you showing some evidence that you have suffered.

You would need to get this together BEFORE drawing up and POCs for a claim.

In the meantime,you have nothing to lose by asking TF to up their offer.

Maybe better to start by giving them a figure that you feel is appropriate,and also takes into account what a County Court Judge can dish out.

Keep copies of their responses,stating that they may be used later to show the Court you have tried to resolve it ammicably.

 

If you are going to issue a claim based on duty of care or negligence,then there are different pre action protocols needed.I suggest you read up as much as you can.

mrsfezza,

Why do you start another thread in the Welcome forums,when you have active threads on this ?

As has been outlined-the crux is in proving and being able to show conclusively,the evidence to achieve maximium compensation.

Will merge again this post with your others.

i have started to draft a poc can any one give advice

 

i really have no idea what to write so any help needed

 

In January 2008 my partner and I were unable to get a mortgage. We were declined by 2 mortgage companies. Lenders stated are applications were declined as there was a default account with an outstanding balance showing on my credit file. I obtained copies of my credit file which confirmed there was an account in default an outstanding amount for £2275 this account was with First National Tricity Finance LTD. This particular account was settled in 2004. First National Tricity Finance LTD did not update my credit report when the loan was cleared.

I contacted First National Tricity by letter requesting a full Subject Access Request on 05.02.08 they did not respond and ignored my request. Breaching the Data Protection Act act, I reported this to financial ombudsman service who investigated this matter. In October I received all my account information.

 

 

First National have since confirmed in writing this default was an error, apologised, updated my credit file then declined compensation.

 

I sent a further letter containing all my credit file and evidence that this default has had an extreme negative impact on my ability to obtain credit. They contacted me via phone and stated that there was no such entry on my credit file and this default was never present I had made a mistake. I reminded them that they had wrote to me confirming there error and that this had been rectified by them. They denied all knowledge.

 

They then contacted me via phone offering £50 compensation. I declined this offer and they refused to discuss this any further.

I have been trying to resolve since Jan 2008. I have no other choice but to file a claim as they will not deal with my complaint. I have been advised by the FOS to start legal proceedings.

 

Under section 13 of the data protection act

 

An individual who suffers damage by reason of any contravention by a data controller of any of the requirements of this Act is entitled to compensation from the data controller for that damage.

First of all, you need to stop trying to deal with this by phone and keep everything in writing. If you haven't already done so, you need to send a 'Letter Before Action' to First National.

 

To leave your options open, at this stage you could say you will be claiming under the Data Protection Act and negligence.

 

In this thread http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/data-protection-default-issues/173208-successful-court-action-default.html there is a letter before action in post 3 which you could use as a guide. You shouldn't just copy the letter as firstly you need to make it suit your circumstances and secondly you need to be absolutely certain that you understand what you are alleging and what you are claiming. If you're not sure, ask. There is also a link on that thread to information about pre-action protocols, which you may also find useful.

As a previous poster has suggested, you will need to be able to prove any losses, so make sure any correspondence you've had turning you down for credit is available etc.

If you draft your letter, I will be happy to have a look at it and give my opinion, but that's all it will be. I'm not a solicitor and whilst I won my case, I think it was more luck than anything else.
