    • My mind is a blur so i cant recall exactly what the judge said at the end, but he mentioned that he would be making an order for Evri to make payment to me. I wasn't sure if the court order will also be provided to me, either by post or email - if anyone can shed some light please?
    • Agree with everyone here it's bang to rights. Looks like you just slightly jinked left in order to go right. Ultimately, your time saving attempt is going to cost you as I don't think you have any grounds to appeal. I'd just pay the charge and chalk it up to experience.
    • 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.

Morning Tendogs,

Ok I really need your help, I cannot get the CCA on here but have been doing my research with all the information you have given me (thanks) and this is what i have come up with, please let me know if you think my CCA is Unenforcable:

 

The terms and conditions are on the back page of the agreement the terms consist of:

Schedule of default & costs

Data protection act notice

Customer data

Is this what you mean by proscribed terms?

 

Also I have notice there is nothing on the agreement that tells me I have a right to cancel, does this make it unenforcable?

 

Last but not least:

Im confused with the amount of APR, my borrowing was £7500, they have charged me £1866 for the the loan, and the total to pay back is £9366, at a rate of 6.4% - Does this sound right to you.

 

This is my last shot at this, to find out once and for all if this one is unenforcable.

Thanks again for all you help :)

 

 

WAM I've sent you a PM

I’ve posted the agreement for whatamess here if anyone wants to take a look and offer an opinion I would be grateful. I cannot see any mention of a right to cancel and I understand that the omission might make the agreement unenforceable.

Hi WAM, I've had a look and the only thing that might make it unenforceable is the lack of information regarding your right to cancel. They do have a section about your rights but I'm not sure that a right to cancel is one of them and so I'm off to do a little research. I have also PMed steve and asked him to have a look. Be back later.

I did wonder if that was one of the things that should have been on there, thanks again tendogs and will speak to you when you know more.

I had a look at the agreement and it seems completely OK - that is, it is enforceable.

 

Thanks for looking in, I had a feeling that it was well put together.

WAM I'd trust steven on this, it looks enforceable. Make them a reasonable and afordable offer of repayment and see what they comeback with.

You are more than welcome, I'm sorry that the outcome was not as you might have wished. Remeber to be reasonable and realistic with your offer, make it and then let them do the work, As I've said before even if they do sell it on and a DCA takes you to court, no Judge will make you pay more than you can afford. Do not give up on the other debts, if you need any agreements checked we can do the same as we did with this one. Let us know how things turn out.

I know your right, I have had one debt written off so far because of an unenforcable agreement so i have to be greatful for that.

 

I do have another question for you, HFC (the dreaded) they have said they are going to be sending someone round to my house if i dont keep up repayments, and to stop that i need to make a payment, I have sent them a CCA with no reply but they say that even with an account dispute they can still send someone round is that right?

No they can't, there's a template letter on the forum somewhere but you just need to send them a note saying that you revoke any implied licence to call at your property and that if anyone does come to your property you will call the police and prosecute them for trespass.

If they have defaulted in a request under s77(1) (loans) or 78(1) (credit cards) of the CCA 1974 then the CCA is quite specific - they are "not entitled, while the default continues, to enforce the agreement" (s77(4) and s78(6)). End of.

Hi

I have offered one of my creditors a reduced payment (after CCA being enforcable I think) the payment is just under half of what my full monthly payment is and relistically its what i can afford, they have sent me a letter back to say they cannot accept this and wont freeze interest or stop charges unless i go onto a payment plan with CCCS, Problem is i already contacted payplan back in Jan and they couldnt take me on as i didnt have enough surplus money. Any advice as to what to do now?

 

Thanks

Hello

 

Thanks for your replies.

 

Ida - I am still making payments i started last month and will be sending another one next week as promised. I have everything in writting the letter i sent them with my offer and the letter I sent back, they have stopped the PPI and im wondering if i can claim back what i have already paid, any ideas?

 

loobyloo85 - After Payplan going through all my out goings and incomings and looking at what i owed all my creditors it worked out that i would need £220 surplus to go onto their plan, they said i could do it myself by offering relistic payments so this is what i have done but dont seem to be getting anywhere with them.

 

Thanks x

Hi

 

One of my creditors wrote to me 2 months ago to let me know they didnt have a CCA for me, and i knew they wouldnt as this debt has been going on for years and company has changed over since.

 

Then they wrote to me again to say they are dealing with my complaint and please give them another 30 days

 

I wrote to them last month to say that the account is in legal dispute and i would not pay another penny until i recieved my cca, this morning i get a letter to say they cant respond with out my signature as authority. Obviously they are going to try and use my signature to try and fake a cca, why else would they need it now, why didnt they say in the first place they wanted it.

 

Any advice, obviously im not giving it to them i have come this far and wont be made a fool off by them, the debt is such a little amounth and they are being the worst out the lot. What should i do now?

 

Thanks

Simple answer. Give it to them!;)

 

You could get a picture, print it on the letter and sign on top of that OR sign your signature as you usually do but put a flourish on it to make it positively identifiable, photocopy your signature so that if the creditor happened to lift it, you would have proof of their tactics.
