    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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.

Hello All,

 

I'm looking to reclaim bank charges from HSBC.

 

I've written to them asking for 6 years of bank statements. They have replied and sent me statements from the 9th Oct 2000. I'm obviously missing approx 3 months of statements. I've had my account with them over 12 years.

 

I obviously wish to progress to the next step of writing to them to reclaim my charges but there may well be extra charges in the 3 month period they haven't sent.

 

What is my best course of action ?

 

Cheers

 

Dave

Thanks for that.

 

I've amended the letter to suit my needs.

 

Given them 7 days to reply to my request.

 

Lets see what happens.

 

Going to send my 1st letter requesting the charges back next weekend - its only £500 so far, hopefully we will go the court route as this adds about £150 in interest.

 

Cheers

No problem Dave, hopefully you will get the rest of your statements very soon and can get going with your claim.

 

Good luck

Hello, This is the first time I have posted.

I am starting my claim today. I am reclaiming 6 years bank charchges from Halifax PLC - because of there actions I am in a debt spiral :shock: , but I have decided that It's time to fight back. If I get my charges back I could be debt free :)

 

I have one question - when I am working out what I am owed, Should I deduct the £12.00, which I understand is the maximum they should have charged? I am not sure about this.

 

Grateful for anybodies help

Hello Folks,

 

I am in the process of of claiming my Bank Charges back from First Direct. They replied to my letter on the 26 /03/07 saying they would investigate my complaint and I would have a reply within 10 working days, as of today ( 10/04/07 ) I have heard nothing. Do I now send the letter giving them 7 days notice of Court action, advice , please. Many thanks.

hi lt

it would be a good idea to start your own thread in the first direct forum so peeps can keep up with your progress.

 

if you mean do you send your letter before action - this should be 14 days since your last letter and you give them another 14 days to respond to your letter before action. this shows the courts (if need be) that you have given them a reasonable amount of time to respond.

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!

Hi folks,

Along with dogz111, I also received my statements from Bank of Scotland today. They have only sent me statements as far back as april 2004 and I've banked with them since 1993.

 

Is this a new tactic the banks are using to slow us up with making claims?

Im going to send another letter from the template supplied by Carly

Hi Derek it may be that you'll get another batch tomorrow so give it a day or so - they tend to come in batches.

 

Might be an idea to start your own thread in the Bank of Scotland forum as they'll be able to offer more specialised advice relevent to them, ie contacts etc.

 

In the meantime good luck with your claim :)

Hi All

 

my first post so please excuse if in the wrong place

 

I am eagerly awaiting the 14th day from when i sent my letter to HSBC threatening court action. I am preparing my Moneyclaim form online. Can anyone advise from from when does the 6 years i can backclaim start from? is it the date i orignally wrote to hsbs requesting the charges back or the date i begin the court proceedings?

 

many thanks

hopefully £1800 better off very soon

Is this really a case of adding up all interest and total charges from your statements then claiming that amount? seems too good to be true-apologies for apearing so stupid but really cant get my head round this.Also,have noticed i hadbeen charged 1,423.09 in 2003 and 1486.81 in 2005 for a loan protection payment and charged 295.00 in 2004 for a fixed rate mortgage.Are any of these reclaimable.

Thanks lateralus for the reply.What i mean is on my HSBC statements-i have a total charges amount and an interest amount-both taken out the same day but listed separately.Do both these count as charges?This is the only info HSBC statements provide me with-its all under one total listed as total bank charges so im confused.

i'm not up to speed with those - i'll get someone to answer you -

when you are ready to give the spreadsheet a go - here's a link you might find useful (i have to tell you that for a couple of days now the interest calculation sp/s link hasn't been working properly - it's been fixed - so don't worry if you can't get onto it straight away).

if the interest calc. spreadsheets still aren't working:

try this:Click here for Vampiress' Chamber of Spreadsheets i've just easily opened a google account and there they are.

 

get that thread started - please!

actually posted a defence or just their intention to defend in the acknowledgment.

if the 28 days have passed and they have filed a defence - you should also have received a transfer to a local court - which court is it and were there any other instructions?

take a look at my thread new - after 28 days....

it will be in my signature at the bottom of this - that explains what is going on.

each local court judge has the discretion to act in a number of ways and it depends on what they say - so let us know if there are further instructions and/or which court it is.

 

as it says in post 1 of my thread - on the other front - the dg front - have you sent them a copy of your breakdown - if not, do so now.

and start with a nudge letter to dg - and i'm advising a nudge letter every 10 days until they offer and send a copy of your breakdown every letter. so, nudge dg. check letter for court details.

hi, buy1 - i see you have a thread in the welcome forum - if you press this: newthread.gif you can start a thread in the hsbc forum and we will be able to help you better that way. so start your thread, please.

 

we have found lately that a polite request at your local branch can do wonders - explain that you have requested and it's over the 40 days and can they please help you out - and they often will get it done very quickly. another way forward is to use the internet banking and get your statements on-line -

 

INTERNET BANKING WEBSITE: -

HSBC INTERNET BANKING

 

HOW TO OBTAIN YOUR STATEMENTS ON LINE: -

Click on “My Accounts” choose the account that you wish to deal with and then click on “My Statements” this will give you online access to up to 6 years of statements. (Repeat for each account and use a separate spreadsheet for each account).

 

Hint: - Watch out for the moving "Prev" button it is replaced by "Next" which takes you back to where you started :rolleyes:

and there is also this:Data Protection Act - Non-Compliance - Template Letters but the bank is very busy with requests just now - so take the other two options first.

and get that thread started -

welcome to the forum
