    • 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.
    • Thank you so much. Yes, I wish I had done my research and not paid. It's all for the same car park. Here is one of the original PCNs, they are all the same bar different dates. PCN-22.03.24-1.pdf PCN-22.03.24-2.pdf
    • Hi Clou, Welcome to the Forum and thank you for reading first before you posted. There seems to be many problems with Cornwall and getting a signal to use your a phone which could be why these parking companies don't use alternatives. It is a shame you paid the first one as you would probably have not had to pay that one either.  Was the car park at which you paid the same parking company as the one sending you these PCNs? On the subject of PCNs could you please post them up so we can see if they comply with the Act.

    • 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.

31 request, I agree that the LBA is not a huge point, but it is a point that should be made, given that they issued county court proceedings even before they had sent me a notice of assignment, despite the fact that barclays were in breach of a CCA request whn they sold this on.

 

whats the worst bit is that i never said i wouldnt pay, just couldnt pay what they wanted at the time :-x

should i also draw the judges attention to the fact that what they have sent me is not a signed executed credit agreement as he stated in his first order, but merely a poor quality copy of an application form?

Sorry I was amending my previous post when you replied. Never had to deal with an adjournment hearing before so can't advise.

 

Exactly like the rest of us. Catostrophic event in our lives resulting in no or reduced income; want to pay but just can't afford the contractual rate. Just want the banks to behave reasonbly in these circumstances.:x

A couple of hundred years ago Meyer Amshel, (1743-1812), founder of the Rothschild dynasty is reported to have told his five sons, “Let me control a nation’s money and I care not who writes its laws”.

well after all this nonsense i am thinking about doing a qualification in consumer law!!

 

interestingly enough though, they are asking for a further month before exchange of witness statements and May for final hearing. if the adjournment is granted i may use the time to ask the court for an unless order in respect of the CPR request and the executed agreement-if there is no ajournment I will be busy Friday drafting witness statement, skelenton argument and siting caselaw for my submissions!!

I would be inclined to go for your 'unless order' sooner rather than later, afterall you really want some resolution from this nonsense. Whether the judge will allow it is another question whilst the case is stayed/adjourned. Might be a question to put to him during your conference call tomorrow.

 

If they don't get their adjournment then just shout if you need any assistance with your defence etc, you'll get plenty of help from the good people on here.

im sure i will need all the help i can get as i will need to submit a witness statement, work out a defence and find all the relevant case law over the weekend. ill want to serve it on monday as it may give the judge chance to look at it before Tuesday.

 

what do you think should be my stance on this conference call tomorrow?

 

does anyone know if the courts are likely to grant this adjournment, or do they tend to say no?

Okay, having just re-read your thread to refresh my memory, if you feel comfortable agreeing to the adjournment then go with that. As I've said previously you should ask permission of the court for an order of the court for the claimant to comply fully with your CPR request i.e. the application form sent is illegible, no true copy of DN etc. You should also seek his permission to submit an amended defence.

 

The adjournment just may work in your favour, with all that you need to do in preparation for the case.

Well you've already made a start on it, and now you've got a month to complete it and fine tune it.

 

If you haven't done so already, I suggest that you use your time wisely and do lots of reading. The CAG statutes library probably has all the information your likely to need. I suggest that you print off the ones that you're basing your defence on so that you have them to refer to easily. You might find it helpful to use a highlighter on the sections that you're referring to. You'll also need them for your court bundle, so if you do 3 sets now, you'll save yourself some sleepless nights later.;)

hi guys

 

have to fill in a listing questionaire by 17th March and serve on claimnt and court. So many things wrong that i need answers too, including the fact that statements they sent me show a nil balance from late 2007 to mid 2008.

 

does anyone know whether i can ask for a new set of directions when i complete the listing questionaire, and should i ask Cohen's why my statements show a nil balance?

Not familiar with multi track procedure I'm afraid. What have you got so far?

its Fast track not multi track

 

original hearing was vacated at request of cohens as they could not do W/S in time

 

no have to fill in lnew listing questionaire by monday after agreeing another extention of witness statements for them.

 

but since looking more closely at the stuff they sent me in case judge wouldnt vacate i have found the following:

 

CCA is virtually illegible at best and i dont think that it can be classed as enforceable as its an application that doesnt contain prescribed terms within the body of the agreement, although they have sent an undated copy of terms and comditions that are completely seperate

 

DN is non-compliant as it only gives 14 days from date of writing to comply-so unless they served it on the same day it is defective

 

statements that they have sent me show different accoun numbers and a nil balance from late 2007 to mid 2008-how should i address this?

 

cohen cramer wont reply to my complaint about no letter before action, the CCA request i made to barclays that they ignored and the debt became unenforceable before the debt was sold on, or the fact that they have failed to copmly with my CPR 31 request fully.

 

im thinking i should be submitting an ammended defense with the listing questionaire as my initial defence was no credit agreement so cant ascertain enforceability etc, as well as some proposed directions for proof of service of default notice and also production of a valid credit agreement as what they provided is illegible and does not contain whats necessary for it to become a valid agreement?

 

what does anyone out there think?

Hi corbeta,

 

I've not had much experience with listing questionnaires, but this might help you:

In your "no CCA" defence, did you also request leave to amend the defence if the other side came up with something? If so, you could just put in an amended "iegible CCA" defence. Otherwise you could include it in your witness statement

Didnt reserve the right to ammend my defence, hadnt found this site then so i think it will have to be included in the witness statement- the bit i really need to know about though is what to do about the different account numbers and zero balance at the end of the ststements they sent me

 

any ideas anyone?
