    • You will probably get a couple more reminders followed by further demands fro unregulated debt collectors with even increasing amounts to pay. They are all designed to scare you into paying.  Don't. It's a scam site and they do not know who was driving and they know the keeper is not liable to pay the PCN. Also the shop was closed so they have no legitimate interest in keeping the car park clear. So to charge £100 is a penalty as there is no legitimate interest which means that the case would be thrown out if it went to Court.  Keep your money in your wallet and be prepared to ignore all their letters and threats. Doubtful they would go to Court since a lot more people would not pay when they heard  MET lost in Court. However they may just send you a Letter of Claim to test your resolve.  If yoy get one of those, come back to us and we will advise a snotty letter to send them.  You probably already have, but take a look through some of our past Met PCNs to see how they are doing.
    • Hello, been a while since I posted on here, really hoping for the same support an advice I received last time :-) Long, long story for us, but basically through bad choices, bad luck and bad advice ended up in an IVA in 2016. The accounts involved all defaulted, to be expected. In 2018, I got contacted by an 'independent advisor' advising me that I shouldn't be in an IVA, that it wasn't the solution for our circumstances and that they would guide us through the process of leaving the IVA and finding a better solution. I feel very stupid for taking this persons advice, and feel they prey on vulnerable people for their own financial gain (it ended with us paying our IVA monthly contribution to them)-long and short of it our IVA failed in 2018. At the same time the IVA failed we also had our shared ownership property voluntarily repossessed (to say this was an incredibly stressful time would be an understatement!) When we moved to our new (rented) property in August 2018, I was aware that creditors would start contacting us from the IVA failure. I got advice from another help website and started sending off SARs and CCAs request letters. I was advised not to bury my head and update our address etc and tackle each company as they came along. Initially there was quite a lot of correspondence, and I still get a daily missed call from PRA group (and the occasional letter from them), but not much else. However, yesterday i had a letter through from Lowell (and one from Capital One) advising that they had bought my debt and would like to speak with me regarding the account. There will be several.of these through our door i suspect, as we did have several accounts with Capital One. Capital One have written to us with regular statements over the last 5 years, and my last communication with them was to advise of of our new address (June 2019), I also note that all of these accounts received a small payment in Jan2019 (i'm assuming the funds from the failed IVA pot). Really sorry for the long long post, but just thought id give (some of) the background for context.... I guess my question at the moment is.....how do I respond to Lowell...do I wait for the inevitable other letters to arrive then deal with them all together or individually...? Do I send them a CCA?  Many thanks

    • 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 BRW

 

Plenty of valid points raised there and i understand were you are coming from with the idiot guide about people following it blindly and not understanding what they are doing.

 

The same can be said about much of the litigation that goes on around this site there are people who start litigation and don't know what cpr is, but they get help and they get stage by stage help and more often than not get the result they want.

 

My point about the acceptance letter is that this is pre litigation and if you get it right at this stage then it has the possibility of stoping it going to litigation.

If it goes to court then at least the paperwork is right for this part.

 

The basic form of this is two parts

1 accept the rescission

2 tell then that as the contract is over then so are they're rights to process your data

 

The point you make about not telling them how to put the DN right

most of the company's that we see on here that are issuing the faulty DN are banks building society and credit cards.

 

these are multi billion pound company's that at the time of writing up the DN didn't pay enough attention to detail when they start to reallies that a faulty DN can be terminal then they are going to pay it a lot more attention

 

at this point i find it hard to believe that such big company's are going to have some guy surfing the net trying to find out to fix the problem of a faulty DN.

Eureka he finds cag and saves the company.

 

This is how i think it will go

Bank gets more and more cases going to court on the DN issue,

Bank gets p****d **f calls in the barristers

They research CCA and case law and then come out with a all new DN

The barristers will get all the info of what is wrong by looking at what has gone thro court .

 

if you really think that they are going to be looking on cag for the answer to a multi million pound problem and take what you me and every other Jo blogs think then you really are thinking to hard

The reason that the creditors don't particularly care for the accuracy of their DN's is because to them it is all a "numbers game"

 

the amount of caggers and other sites breeding LIP's to fight them is but a pimple on a dimple on a fleas left ball!!

 

they send out 10,000 DN's 5,000 people pay up or come to an arrangement out of fear (and because they dont know about sites like this)

 

4750 dont respond because they are skint and the creditor goes on to get a CCJ by default

 

250 are caggers and the like

 

until the odds shift considerably against them, i venture to suggest they are quite happy with these odds!!

I agree with that Dicky

It is only when the snowball grows that they will do something about it exactly what happened with bank charges

 

If the CMC start pushing faulty DN then it wont be long before a faulty DN becomes an endangered species

You will be surprised.

 

CAG has done more to educate some of these companies than their in house training programme in respect of the CCA.

Will copies of DN's be shown in a Subject Access Request?

 

I have had Formal Demands for the full amounts for two BC accounts but have not been sent any DN's (or if I have, they've been lost in the post....they would have been sent around the time of the postal strike late last year).

Hi Basil,

 

I don't believe they keep copies of them from what I have read on others threads.

Couldn't agree more BRW.

 

There is already an 'idiots guide' if the donut banks/DCAs could be bothered to read it (Enforcement, Default and Termination Notices Regs 1983) but apparently some of the words are quite long so they don't bother :)

It's more likely that you will get a copy of a template of a DN which was supposedly sent out, and a copy of a screenshot on a PC confirming when it was issued and by whom. Actual copies of DNs sent out are rarely kept.

they should be in a reply to a SAR if you have asked for all information held on you, but company's are very selective on what they think they can get away with sending, different company's send out different info in they're reply but i don't think any company sends it all.

 

DNs should also be in CCA requests where they are mentioned in T&Cs when borrower is in default.

Would you mind popping over to my thread for advice on a DN that's not a DN :confused:

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/mbna/81907-mbna-ding-ding-round-10.html#post2743043

 

I would like opinions on a 'Defaulted Acc' (no prescribed terms on CCA) but no DN actually sent or received.

 

Thanks so much :)

 

Can anyone help please?

That's why when you send the SAR, you specify that you want everything, including DN, CCA etc.

 

Anything they don't send, you ask once more then complain to the information commissioner.
