    • Thank you everyone!  thought to share some points from my experience in court today that may help others who are taking Evri to court: The judge sets out how the hearing will go and how each party should behave; while i was certainly feeling anxious/nervous ahead of the hearing (and I'm sure @jk2054 may have also observed this), the judge really does try to put any non-legal persons at ease; refrain from talking to the other party and instead speak to the judge if you have any questions/responses; the judge and the advocate spoke about tort of negligence - i wasn't sure how this applied to my case but the judge was questionning the advocate about this so i chose to stay out of this; the judge made reference to a historical case of Donaghue v Stevenson which established a duty of care; the judge observed that some of the points in Evri's witness statement by george wood needed cross examination but george was not present today for questionning; While i was claiming 8% interest, the judge pointed out that is the upper limit and that today, savings accounts give 4-5%. I therefore opted for 5% interest which was agreed to by the judge and the advocate; above all else, ensure you know your court bundle and have any notes to help you refer to specific sections - it helped me to structure my answers to the judge/defendant's queries, and point to specific evidence where i was asked to prove e.g., the value of the item. @honeybee13 - yes, will confirm when payment is received. I have emailed the Evri.claims email with my bank details and also provided them after the hearing to the advocate. @BankFodder message received and i am replying to it
    • Looks promising then.  Well done   Dx
    • So a little update.  I sent a complaint to ico and have heard nothing. I just got the general reply email and that's it.  Sat twiddling my thumbs and thought about what I should do next. I searched for the CEO of Studio but then found that he'd left so as keep getting letters from studio about the arrears etc. I thought I'd email the David Twigg. Sent him all the bumpft and a copy of my original complaint and sars request.  Got no response. So didn't know what else to do. Then I thought I'd try through the financial difficulties option on the online form. One last try before I just give up and let them default me.  Then on the 5th June. I got an email from their customer services. That the items that had gone AWOL have all been cancelled. Nothing else on that email, so I had a look in an email account that I don't use anymore and there was an email from the customer service.  That they were sorry for the problems I've had for the last 9 months. That the sars info was emailed to me on 14/04, it wasn't I've kept all spam and deleted emails on that account, they have raised a complaint with their studio pay team regarding the issues, balance dispute, fee's and my credit file. They are hoping to resolve in 3 days but they have upto 56. They also said in regards to my other issues I have to raise a complaint with studio retail but haven't told me how I do that.  The sars info only goes upto the end of December 2023. It has my previous complaints on there but nothing after so I don't know how I get hold of that information. Luckily I've kept copies of every time I've contacted them. Every web chat or social media contact.  Apologies for the extremely long post but I wanted to add everything I could just incase.  I have checked my account balance and it's still minus 900 odd pounds but I'll keep checking to see if it's all cleared and on my credit file.  I'm hoping this is the end of the whole debacle and they close my account because I never want to do this again. Although it's been a learning experience.  Thanks to dx100uk for pointing me in the right direction. Much appreciated.

    • 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.

Mad – if the order says the claim will be struck out then it should be – if a letter won’t do it then I will pay the fee for a N244 – then claim it back from CL.

Postman has been and gone – nothing from Cohens or CL Finance – I suppose there’s a slim chance that something could turn up via courier but I doubt it somehow.

 

This is what the Judge ordered (which is what I requested at AQ stage)

 

IT IS ORDERED THAT

 

1. The Claimant shall not later than 4:00pm on 8th May 2009 deliver to the Defendant a verified true copy of each of the following documents mentioned in the Particulars of Claim:-

 

a) The executed regulated consumer credit agreement made between the Defendant and Barclaycard under account reference xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx together with any terms and conditions that applied to it at the time of signing. The original document must be brought to the hearing.

b) The default notice together with proof of service.

c) The Notice of Assignment together with proof of service.

d) The Deed of Assignment or sale agreement giving CL Finance Limited legal entitlement to make the claim.

e) A full and complete statement of account including all payments made and charges applied covering the period beginning with the day of the making of the agreement and ending on the date of the commencement of this case.

f) A statement from Barclaycard, being the assignor of account number xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx confirming that said account had not been securitised prior to that account being assigned to CL Finance Ltd.

 

2 In the event that the Claimant shall fail to comply with paragraph 1 of this order the claim shall stand struck out and the Defendant shall be at liberty without further order to apply to this court for judgment and for costs on the standard basis to be subject to detailed assessment proceedings if not agreed.

 

 

 

I will update you after 4:00pm

Well done PGH.

Hi CB – Most of the draft directions came from CCM (cheers mate!) but I added the last bit in light of recent discussions – every little helps as they say.

I just hope I don’t get the run-around with the strike out – but the order is pretty specific so fingers (& toes) crossed – then costs I think!

Good luck. I may well be on the pop by 4pm (rugby club dinner starts early these days) so I hope I'll be celebrating whatever state I'm in.

 

I note there's another couple of dodgy CL claims landed on the forum today. These idiots must be stopped in their tracks.

Well nothing has materialised – so I have emailed the court requesting the claim stands struck out in compliance with the order – sent a copy of the request in the post also.

Hopefully that will do the trick – will give a final update (hopefully) and summary next week.

Enjoy the pop DonkeyB – think I’ll have a glass or 2 myself tonight.

I note there's another couple of dodgy CL claims landed on the forum today. These idiots must be stopped in their tracks.

 

I guess they just churn them out automatically, I guess a lot of people who are not well versed in the system are bullied into paying up so it probably makes it worth their while. There is something seriously wrong though that they are allowed to get away with it and the courts can't throw them out straightaway without any evidence. A review of the claims system is obviously seriously needed!

They mainly just try to go for summary judgement on people who don't repond or admit the claim.

We have some ongoing cases with these lot and they seem to be getting the cases strung along rather than just giving up and going away but we are making progress.

If interested have a look at

Could anyone tell me what this part means, I need to submit a CC AQ this weekend, and wonder if it would be appropriate for mine

 

There's some info on the HMRC website basicly it seems to be selling the debt without selling it - Company X gives Original Creditor sum of money in return Original Creditor passes any funds you give them onto Company X. I assume if the Original Creditor cannot get any money out of you Company X miss out as the OC have had their money.

 

If I understand correctly the arguement is that the OC has already had their money so why are they suing you.

 

Whether they'll actually answer or not is another question, it cannot hurt asking for it in your Draft Orders, as far as I'm aware the Judge won't ask why you want this document, the worse that can happen is that the Judge can decide it's not worth asking for.

 

If you ask for the document whilst at a hearing then you may need to explain why you want it if asked.

*UPDATE*

I did get a little bit of a runaround by the court – I contacted the Court Manager and asked for confirmation that the claim had been struck out in accordance with the order – the court then wrote to me and asked me to submit a witness statement confirming if any documents had been served by CL Finance – None had so I sent that recorded delivery and a copy via email – that was 2 weeks ago – I chased the court on Tuesday and today I received the following in the post:

 

IT IS ORDERED THAT

 

The claim is struck out

 

This site is truly fantastic and I send out a massive thanks to all who have contributed.

 

Can one of the site team please change the title to WON please.

 

I will be pursuing costs and then making a donation.

 

KEEP FIGHTING!!!!

UPDATE

 

I requested costs from CL Finance but they didn’t respond – No surprise there then - I asked for £300

 

I then wrote to the court and included a draft order for costs – wasn’t sure if this would work.

 

Received an order from the court requiring CL Finance to pay my costs within 14 days – I didn’t have to pay a fee so this is just to let everyone know that a well drafted letter can work if you are applying for wasted costs.

 

Wonder if I will have to send the bailiffs in!!!

This is a copy of the draft order that I sent to the court - I also included a schedule of costs and a covering letter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the xxxxxxxx County Court

 

Claim number xxxxxxxx

 

 

 

 

 

Between

 

 

CL Finance Limited - Claimant

 

 

 

and

 

 

 

atwozee - Defendant

 

 

 

 

 

Upon reading the Defendant’s letter dated xx/xx/2009,

 

IT IS ORDERED THAT

 

 

1. Claimant to pay Defendant’s costs, the Court being satisfied that the Claimant acted unreasonably in not responding to the Defendants legitimate request for information before and after the claim was issued.

 

2. Defendant’s costs summary assessed at £295.00 based on Defendant’s schedule and allowing 31 hours preparation time.

 

3. Claimant to pay £295.00 to Defendant by 4pm on xx/xx/2009

 

 

4. NOTICE OF ORDER MADE WITHOUT A HEARING

Because this order has been made by the court without considering representations from the parties, the parties have a right to apply to have the order set aside. varied or stayed . A party wishing to make an application must send or deliver the application to the court (together with any appropriate fee) to arrive to the court office within 7 days of receiving this order.
