    • as this situation has now come up again for you, how confident are you that if you get on the straight and narrow with having a respite of 60days (Options for dealing with your debts: Breathing Space (Debt Respite Scheme) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)... would you then be able to resume ok? if not quite honestly, the very best thing you can do is to get ALL your debts defaulted by the issuance of and the registering of a Default Notice from each creditor. this is done by stopping ALL PAYMENTS, it wont hurt you short term, esp as all the debts are still with the Original Creditors. this of course will kill credit for 6yrs, but, will cause the debts to vanish from your file (paid or not, paying or not) on the DN's 6th B'day, but of course that wont mean the debts are not still owed, legally, just your file will be clear of them all. if you read a good 10-20 of the stories in this very same forum you found to start yours, you'll soon get the idea behind the advice given. as for things like IVA/BK etc NEVER EVER do those, that secures unsecured debt. just contact one of the free DMP providers and get breathing space implemented, that gives you a 60 day buffer to firm up your future actions. but DO NOT enter into a DMP, do one yourself. they can be a bit pushy, but simply insist you just want breathing space invoked, i would only be giving them enough info to achieve BS too, don't give them anything you don't need too, they are funded by the banks and debt collectors and can sometimes be over intrusive and nosy wanting info that is better not revealed. dx    
    • “Not realising it was a no parking zone” doesn’t help you if the timing is correct, as (at least, on Google Maps / View) there is clear signage ('7am to midnight', parked at 15:22) What might be worth pursuing is the "ticket handed to driver" aspect : do you have any view on why they would be  stating that?
    • it's 85k of turnover (well, now £90k). However, you're digging yourself into another hole here. That ship has probably long since sailed. Is it worth pursuing this? You're not going to get anything back from it either way.
    • Hi,   A few pointers from yesterday to take note of evris cpr 27.9 failed again so we should really make issue of this also their WX fail to comply with CPR so again we should take issue with their statement of truth  you cant get tort if you get damages under subsection 7 of CRA because its double recovery  - not sure what we think of this? however its the first time i saw the judges make reference to your non automatic rights from s49 which s54 and 57 assist with. We should start stating this specifically for claims as I think its much better than just 49 and 57 as we need to make it clear where our non automatic rights come from as 54 automatic frankly dont help  I have sent the claim form and defences to the admin email because I can’t upload them for some reason as it wont let me but thought this may help as its the first time we’ve taken tort to trial. although i think the DDJ was honestly struggling to understand some parts of the law because he was asking me about them and how he should interpret them, especially for the automatic. Will apply for transcript if you want it?

    • 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.

Hi Rachel,

 

As far as I recall even though the lender has a suspended possession order they have to let you know when they are seeking possession which means that they can't just throw you out.

 

When the relevant paperwork turns up please make sure that you attend the court and ask for their help. The court staff are usually very sympathetic and will do what they can to help.

 

You will need to sort out an argument that will give the judge a chance to give you some more time.

 

Did you attend court last time? If you di you will know that it is not like Rumpole or Judge John Deeds but more like a simple office procedure.

 

I am sure that someone more knowledgeable will be along soon. In the meantime good luck

Are you able to make payments?

If so you could have the eviction warrant suspended.

 

At the present time I am told that the courts are looking for ways to avoid repossessions resulting in evictions.

 

I am in this situation myself, and I found that the local cab was very helpful indeed, although most of the legal information came from this site.

We are in the same position as you legally I think, and Derek at the cab found a legal reason to extend the warrant. We decided not to fight it because it wouldn't give us any control over the sale of the house.

But if we had needed time to stay in the house, we would have made an application to the court, because you have very little to lose by trying, the caselaw he was going to rely on came from a ruling in 1996 CHELTENHAM & GLOUCESTER PLC (FORMERLY CHELTENHAM & GLOUCESTER BUILDING SOCIETY) v. ROBERT CHARLES BOOKER and SUSAN JANE BOOKER [1996] EWCA Civ 957 (14th November, 1996).

 

As it happens I will be meeting the bailiff to give the keys back tomorrow.

Incidentally, we have just had a phone call from the mortgage lender or someone working within the firm to tell us that if we approach the court and asked for more time we will get between one and two months.

 

I hope that helps, let's face it all they can say is no.

  • 3 weeks later...

Hi all just to let you know after months of me writing to spml/capstone asking for help and getting no reply they called today to asl what we were doing regarding eviction we said what can we do we are leaving house he said he could try to help us which my husband said it was a bit late for that we have been asking for help for months he aplogised for none of my letters getting replies he also said he could try to stop eviction by putting us through to another department and try to put us on an interest only mortgage but he said we dont normally do that but we want to help you now. We told them to stop calling us and we will be leaving house on our eviction day as we have had enough now one question if anyone could help when we leave house can i cancel my buildings insurance.

Regards

Rachel

As I understand it you ought to cancel the insurance

The lender will have to insure the property anyway and you will inevitably be chased for the shortfall which includes all the costs that they can think of to hit you with.

 

Also as the mortgage was almost certainly written in trust they can pursue you for the shortfall for 12 years not 6.

 

Sorry to be the harbinger of bad news
