      PCN - MFG - ESSO COBHAM - GRAVESEND

      By PCNWarrior · Posted

      I have received a PCN from Euro Car Parks for MFG - Esso Cobham - Gravesend. I was completely unaware that there was any such limit for parking and always considered this to be a service station. I stopped there to use the toilet, have a coffee and made a couple of work calls. I have read the previous topics on this location which suggest I can ignore this and ECP will not take legal action. The one possible complication is that the vehicle is leased by my employer so I do not want to involve them with the associated reminders and threatening letters. The PCN was first issued to the leasing company Arval who have notified ECP of the hiring company. I have attached a copy of the PCN Notice to Hirer with details removed as per instructions. What options do I have or should I just pay the PCN promptly at the reduced rate of £60? img20240424_23142631.pdf

      What you have uploaded is a letter with daft empty threats from third-party paper tigers.  Just ignore it. What we need to see is the original invoice you received last October or November.

      NPC ANPR PCN Claimform - Taxi - Appealed - No Parking Or Waiting At Anytime - St Thomas Hospital, London, Se1 7eh.

      By lookinforinfo · Posted

      Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

If you need any help with completing the form give me a shout.

Also, you'll need to write a statement for Q.10. Best to tick the box for "attached witness statement" and then put your whole defence in the attached document. If you need help with that also, let me know.

Witness statement template affixed :)

 

If you are including any paperwork you need to refer to it in your statement i.e. Please see affixed statement - Appendix 1. Give all documents you are affixing an appendix number.

 

You will need to write the claim number and Appendix number at the top of each of the documents you affix.

 

Hope this helps, shout if you have any questions (but I'm off to bed now, back on line in the morning)

How's this for the evidence ?

 

I respectfully request the court to consider the following when hearing my application:

 

· The Claimant obtained judgement by default having served papers to my previous address and therefore I was unable to defend.

· The Claimant has stated the paperwork was returned to them undelivered, and has informed me to apply for a set aside.

· The Claimant has stated they closed the account on the 31/10/2005, yet the original judgement was for monies owed for the period ending 31/03/2007.

· I will be making payment in full if the set aside is successful, as I would have done if I had received the original summons. The Claimant has agreed to agreed to this.

Hi, do you have anything in writing from the Claimant in respect of the above points. i.e. have they written to you advising you to apply for a set aside and agreeing to payment in full following the set aside?

No, nothing in writing. This was all said on the phone at the end of last week when I made my initial queries with them. Without anything in writing, would it be a case of my word against theirs ? Or should I be requesting transcripts to send in with the n244.

Hi, I think it would take too long to get transcripts - they would probably stall anyway. Send in the N244 and we can do a letter to them confirming your conversation with them asking for their confirmation by return. Send by guaranteed next day delivery, keep a copy of the letter and the receipt for posting and then check on the royalmail website in a few days to print of their signature of receipt. Keep that safe with the copy letter.

 

I suggest you write:

 

 

...................................................................................Your address

 

Date:

 

Their Address

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Sirs,

 

CASE NUMBER: XXXXX

 

I write to confirm our telephone conversation of (date) regarding the above case. On your advice I have applied for a set-aside of the Judgement as the court papers were never received by me and you agreed you would not oppose the set-aside. You also agreed that when the set-aside was granted you would accept full payment of the claim.

 

I would appreciate your confirmation of the above agreement by return post.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

 

 

XXXXX

One final question - how long before this will be removed from my credit file (It's still there). When I spoke to the court last time they said they would send the details somewhere.

 

When I emailed Equifax about it they took sixteen days to reply and answered as if it had been satisfied i.e. six years...blah blah

 

thanks

 

oh - I almost forgot. Northumbria Water have also given me £100 compensation !!!! For the distress I have suffered....brilliant
