    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above
    • In anticipation of lodging my court claim next Weds 1 May (14 days after advising P2G that was my deadline for them to settle my claim) I have completed my first draft POC as below: Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant has failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing a 8 secondhand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80 I look forward to your thoughts and comments guys! As ever, many thanks - G59    
    • Hmm, that's strange how they got my email then.  I assume the below is ok to send to DCBL, Nicky?  Hello, I am writing regarding our ongoing dispute and the upcoming court claim reference xxxxxxxx. To ensure fairness and transparency in our communications leading up to the court hearing, I request that you use postal mail exclusively for all further correspondence related to this claim. Please refrain from sending any communication or documents via email. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have any questions or need clarification, please feel free to contact me via postal mail at the address provided above. Yours sincerely, xxxx

    • 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.

Not really worth it.

 

Far better to go on the offensive and challenge those who are pestering you....or ignore them and IF they take you to court only offer what you can realistically afford to pay, not a penny more.

HOIST BY THEIR OWN PETARD.

 

Blimey it works....:-)

I had a legal name change (not for this reason) and my bank with whom I had not problems for many years, immediately informed all the CRA's and now I have an alias!!: AKA and Fraud note!!!

 

I had 2 legal change of names also not for avoiding debt + it was a very long time ago but I think I confused everybody because I went from my birth surname, to my stepfathers surname for many years and back to my birth surname after my mother divorced my stepfather.

There are many reasons apart from marriage/divorce for name changes and I think many people assume that it must be for devious reasons - I notifield everyone that needed to know, Pensions, bank etc. I still respond if required to DCAs in my previous name which they address me by and yet I cannot get the CRA's to alter their records. They say it is because I am using both names, you just can't win!!

Years back a guy had took his bank to court after they withdrew banking services from him. He won.

 

He'd changed his name to:

 

Mr Yorkshire Bank Are Fascist B*****ds PLC

 

Just think, every time you sign a cheque.....

Oh gosh that means he has to open most of his mail and cannot send it back when address to The occupier, perhaps not such a clever move:confused:

 

Or similarly T.H.E Homeowner

 

I like P. Issoff

"A Guy in Huddersfield Changed his name to T.H.E. Occupier", but he also had a legal marraige to his dog as well!! AKA Jake Manglewurzel, a rather eccentric gent:)

 

How about changing it to Ken Maynard (Cabot MD;))

I knew someone called A. Dickman - correct spellings! His first name was Anthony but he always signed A. Dickman - dont think that would go in his favour with a DCA :p

I've got the same problem - I double-barrelled my name with my partner's, but I also use my old name for several accounts that are included in my DMP (a Littlewoods account and an old NatWest account) and I have 2 accounts with the Leeds Losers - Im reluctant to send them my deed poll for various reasons (one being it has my real signature on it :p) so I;ve got 2 names on my CRA records which they wont put right!! I changed it by usage last year and officially this year but most of my defaulted accounts are in my new name, so quite often I have to think before giving my name to anyone as I often dont know which name I have used!!! :oops:
