    • next time dont upload 19 single page pdfs use the sites listed on upload to merge them into one multipage pdf.. we aint got all day to download load single page files 2024-01-15 DBCLegal SAR.pdf
    • 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.....................................
    • Hi,   I am not sure if I posted this already here but I don't think I did. I attach a judgement that raises very interesting points IMO. Essentially EVRi did their usual non attendance that we normally see, however the judge (for the first time I've seen in these threads) dismissed the notice and awarded me judgement by default because their notice misses the "confirmation of compliance" paragraph. in and out in 3 minutes (aside from the chat at the end with the judge about his problems with evri) Redacted - evri CPR loss.pdf
    • Just to update this. I did apply to strikeout and they did not attend the hearing. I won by defualt and the hearing lasted 5 minutes (court only allocated 15). The judge simply explained that the only matter he was really considering is if the Defendant could have any oral evidence to defend the claim. However he said he had decided that based on their defence, and their misunderstanding of law, and their non attendence he did not think they had any reasonsable chance so he awarded me SJ + Costs on the claim form + the strikeout fee. Luckily when I sent the defendant the order I woke up the next day to a wire trasnfer for the full sum of the judgement

    • 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.

Ohh it just gets better. I phoned eversheds to aske them to confirm what the amount was that was awarded by the court and they told me that it was £5 per month as that was what I had agreed to pay and what was told to me by the court. When i told them i had a problem with paying that amount they splurted that they were in the position to send in the bailiffs and take my belongings. After 5 mins of threats by them I told them what the court told me and asked if they could explain why they had lied to me and made me pay more than the court said I could afford.. on that note they hung up! :mad:. Apparently according to them I have been paying £5 pm since 5/7/2005.

Vikki you need someone like Nighthawk or Diskman Dave on the job.... that's not to say the rest of the good folk are not out there... I don't know how to contact them though without highjacking someone else's thread which I am trying to avoid if at all possible.

 

That said, you have Eversheds by the balls! They tried to imply mine was £5 more than once and whined over the phone it cost too much to collect!! WELL TOUGH... that is what happens when you mess with the dark stuff in like. I knew better and refused to pay £5 and they have only had the £1 since 2003.I have written to the Court and to them and intend making formal complaint to whatever I can... Law Society, for starters.

 

We need numbers on this one...... anyone out there? A group/class action will be stronger. :grin:

Hi vikki75, I have messaged Diskmandave, Nighthawk and 42man asking for assistance. I doubt what you have been told is correct. Eversheds have deceived you from the start. A £1 CCJ is not a £5 CCJ. You have been paying £5 as a result of duress (them saying it is £5 and you have to pay)which in legal speak vitiates consent - i.e. had you known you only had to pay £1 you would have done so.

 

Let's face it even if they do take you back to Court it will cost them money, they have no realistic grounds for seeking an award of costs against you they will not want the truth coming out about their deception.

 

In the interim you may wish to prepare a Statement of Income/Expenses which clearly demonstates the hardship the £5 per month is causing you and maybe later sent it to Eversheds saying you are considering seeking a Redetermination Order. Now whether this can mean you pay less than £1 I do not know.

 

We need URGENT help here folks, any information you can add? :confused:

I would also urge you to report them to the OFT too, as well as the SRA, your MP might be able to assist too....did you ever claim back the excessive charges too ? You may even be able to set aside using section 32c limitation act...so the OFT decision on charges was only in 2007...(what was the debt for ?)

Who obtained the judgement? Was it Eversheds or another DCA?

thanks for the advice. I think it was for a store card but will have to confirm this. On the letter from eversheds it says re- Link financial vs me so i'm assuming that it was link that obtined it (unless they are the same company).

I have never claimed anything back as it was all done via CAB and I knew alot less than I know now.

Vikki, a lot of GE Capital (Evans, Burtons Dorothy Perkins et al) store card CCJ's were sold on in 2006 to Link Financial Ltd. The original CCJ is likely to be in whom ever held the store card debt, Eversheds were acting then and from a poor quality letter of assignment I received in 2006, they were nominated by Link on acquiring these old CCJs to continue to collect. Once Eversheds send the copy CCJ you will probably see who the Judgment was originally awarded to anyway.

 

I have asked for a true copy certified Deed of Assignment as well as the usual CCJ copy to try to ensure who actually owns the matter now. You may wish to consider asking for this in writing - DO NOT RING THEM (the golden rule)

 

I suspect Eversheds are pooing themselves that unless they are seen to be 'mustard' they are going to loose the collection contract as Link Financial as far as I can see are probably in the mire (no CCR licence since May 2008) and are probably under administration or such and Eversheds have been instructed to grabwhat they can and will before no more income for them.

 

Someone with more tech knowledge needed here..... and as 42man brilliantly outlined, a Judge would probably throw this one out if they try it on.

 

I have matched their cheek and sent them a 'holding response' while I look forther into the matter. Hope this helps but do not let this get to you.:oops:

thanks stirling, would you mind telling me what you put in the letter to them as I really have no idea what to say.

Come to think of it is was a mothercare account card as I used to work there are we were all offered them (how nice).

Lets hope that we get somewhere with our claims and that they are not feeling as cocky about the accounts as they made out.

 

I still cant believe the guy hung up on me :mad: ah well it was fun to hear him squirm before he realised that he had said too much lol

Who obtained the judgement is quite important as assigning a CCJ without the courts permission may be considered an unlawful assignment. You can just about be 100% certain that no permission was sought from the court.

Hi Rory32, thanks for joining in. I have heard about court permission being needed to assign benefit of CCJ but can you point us in the right direction; is it somewhere in CPR? I am way out of date with this stuff. I notice you are in Scotland, is your law different - we are in England.

 

Thanks

Hi Vikki75, I may not be on air tonight as have meeting to go to but will log on about midnight to see what has happened. Do not worry about this I will draft you a letter at the latest tomorrow morning for your consideration, and if Rory32 / anyone else has been able to shed any light on this Deed of Assignment/court permission side of things I will incorporate that as well. Either way I will also look into SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority) and how to go about it.

 

It is looking like a busy weekend!

 

Speak later,

The law in Scotland is different yes. For a start we don't have CCJ's. The assignment issues I quoted however are to do with English law.

 

I have heard about court permission being needed to assign benefit of CCJ but can you point us in the right direction; is it somewhere in CPR?
This is information that was received from HM Courts Services. They did not state why, only that you can not sell off a CCJ unless ordered by the court.

Hi Vikki,

 

My computer has broken down and will not be fixed until about Wednesday next week so I am now at the library. I will not be able to log on tomorrow or probably over the weekend but will go to library again on Monday. In the meantime I have drafted a couple of letters for you.

 

I realise you spoke to the County Court (Northampton?) so you may wish to alter the letter etc.

 

So: Court letter.

Date. CCJ ref etc. Link Financial -v- yourself etc.

 

Further to my conversation with your office on (date) I now wish to report the following: (describe what happened when you phoned Eversheds)

 

In order that I may take the matter further can you please confirm to me in writing Eversheds have no authority to challenge a Court Order, or indeed, if they do, where I may obtain this information. I rang Community Legal as you suggested and they said there was nothing I could do which I do not agree with. (you may also wish to ring Community legal again Vikki and ask them on what authority they told you this then write a similar letter asking for confirmation in writing)

 

Furthermore, as the debt has been previously assigned I understand, can you please confirm whether Court authority was required for this and if so whether such authority was sought and obtained, along with a copy of this if this document is at hand.

 

Your assistance in this matter is much appreciated.

yours faithfully - then your name

 

keep a copy and set yourself a file up next Vikki - you can also start a Chronology of events - i.e.a short manual diary of events which if, it goes to Court you can produce as evidence. You also need to compile a schedule of payments made to date - just listing them will be sufficient and have the bank statements handy just in case.

 

Next entry will be the Eversheds lot

Hi Vikki, Back again, now for the main letter

 

your address at top in margin but no telephone number-

 

their ref etc

CCJ/Court ref and date and amount set of £1 per month (as confirmed by County Court on (date)

 

Dear Sirs,

I confirm receipt of your letter dated(date) on (date).

 

I note from my file and from the conversation I had with (Northampton County Court?) on (date) the orginal CCJ was dated (date) and set at the rate I could afford one pound per month (£1.00) by the Court. I understand from the Court you have absolutely no authority to amend, alter, adjust or in any other way interfere with an Order of the Court, nor do you have any authority to assign the attached debt without the express and prior permission of the Court.

 

Therefore contrary to your assertions the payment rate was set at £1.00 and not £5.00 as you have continually misrepresented since the Order was granted. Furthermore I was advised to contact you asking for a True Copy signed of the CCJ, Deed of Assignment and necessary Court Authority. I understand you have an absolute obligation under Law of Property Act 1925 S 136 to supply these documents (and kindly note at this juncture no letter of assignment was received at the time of assignment either)and no fee is chargeable to me for the provision of the same. As the set out of your letter implies impending Court action, you also have a duty of disclosure under CPR pre-action disclosure rules.

 

Following the conversation with the Court, I then telephoned your offices and was told (then go on in your own concise description what happened, how you were threatened with bailiffs, how they hung up on you) Mention also how yiou were subjected to threats and you found this extremely intimidating.

 

In view of this experience and as I noted at the time you state conversations may be recorded I now require from you please a disc holding the recording of that conversation and written confirmation of the name and contact details of your official data controller as I intend making formal complaint to and not limited to:Data Commissioners office, Office of Fair Trading, Solicitors Regulatory Authority, and the Law Society.

 

Turning to your quote of "interview regarding my income and expenses", kindly note as I have (put no in) children I shall make application to have the matter moved to my local Court and I shall also be making application to the District Judge for my expenses to be awarded which will include (but not limited to) childcare, travel and appropriate representation on the day. I further note your contention that "I may be imprisoned for failing to attend", and will seek further legal advice in the interim, kindly advise me of upon which legal premis you intend to rely given the Court Order has already been granted.

 

Upon receipt of the requested documents all of which should reasonably be within your control, by 10th March 2009, I will take further advice but for the avoidance of doubt, I would not like to discuss the future level of payments based on my current fiancial position, rather I would like a refund please of the monies you have taken unlawfully, which has caused me considerable and sustained hardship and a clear undertaking you understand the set rate to be at £1.00. Since no arrangement between us exists and because you have no authority to vary an Order made by the Court I do not wish to enter into any negotiations for increased payments or settlement as I lack the requisite funds.

 

Failure to comply with the above requests and any further harassment will be passed to the relevant authorities seeking to question your and your client's fitness to hold a Consumer Credit Licence. When responding please confirm you and your client do hold such licences and quote the numbers of the numbers in order I may verify the same and check they are valid.

 

yf

 

make sure you send this recorded delivery, keep copies one in file etc.

 

Have a good weekend and I will try to get on line elsewhere but my computer has burned out (is it any wonder!!)

Just for your info:

 

You do not have to pay more money than the amount ordered by the court and set out in the instalment order. If a creditor wishes to vary the amount then Order 22 of the County Court Rules provides that a judgment creditor may apply to the district judge on notice for an order that the money if payable in one sum, be paid at an earlier date than that by which it is due. Or, if the money is payable by instalments, that it be paid in one sum or by larger instalments.

 

Any such application must be made in writing stating the proposed terms and the grounds on which it is made. Also they would have had to serve a copy of the notice on you so that you could attend court and give your side.

OK.. computer codged up for now don't know if it will hold but we will see....

 

Rory32, many thanks for your latest post, it remains to be seen what Eversheds respond with. I expect all sorts of quotations and threats anything which falls just short of up front monies being laid out for Court appearances. I will consider these as they arrive and action accordingly.

 

Vikki75, I hope you managed to set a file up just so paper is in order as once these Eversheds respond things may move rather quickly and you may wish to print and file all info as it comes through. I always say perfect preparation prevents p!ssball presentation.

 

Back on Monday

Have you heard any more from Eversheds Vikki? I have not even had an acknowledgement as yet. I will leave it until Monday then send them a strong reminder which I will post on this thread should anyone wish to make use/adapt it for their own purposes.
