    • Well we can't predict what the judge will believe. PE will say that they responded in the deadline and you will say they don't. Nobody can tell what a random DJ will decide. However if you go for an OOC settlement you should still be able to get some money
    • What do you guys think the chances are for her?   She followed the law, they didnt, then they engage in deception, would the judge take kindly to being lied to by these clowns? If we have a case then we should proceed and not allow these blatant dishonest cheaters to succeed 
    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • 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.

Obviously, they are.

 

But so what? What are you trying to achieve?

 

If you have been caught out somewhere else in company procedures, remember that two wrongs don't make a right. IOW, the fact that the company have breached this procedure, does not render all procedures void.

Won't wash IMO.

 

It could equally be argued that you should have been working on a till and the rest of your family not.

 

I can see no correlation between other members of your family working on tills and your till shortage. I somehow doubt that any ET will either.

 

I think you need to focus on the till shortage and why it (or whether it actually) occurred.

tigerbar,

 

You're clutching at staws.

 

patdavies is correct, there is no correlation between your family working on tills and your till shortage.

 

Your prime concern and effort should be with disproving the till shortage.

 

Regards...

Has your till been short on previous occasions?

 

Are we talking about a small or large amount?

 

Do you consider that the company has handled this shortage fairly, regardless of alleged breaches concerning thier hand book?

i do understand that but like i said it states in the company hand book that no family members are allowed to work on the same work team but they have put 3 of us on the same team why can they make rules and not carry them out to me that is not carrying out company rules

I can understand your thoughts regarding company rules.

 

Do you think they considered your family members as hard working, honest and trust worthy and in that regard bent the rules to accommodate a family enviroment?

Well done with getting another job and no you can't be that bad at your job.

 

Within the scale of things, I would suggest that your performance does not warrant being dismissed. The company should be showing a level of understanding and fully investigate this matter.

 

Not being privy to your conversations regarding your legal advice and CAB involvement, I would suggest you follow their advice in this matter.

 

But try and stick to the "till shortage" matter and not the rule book as this might weaken your case.

 

Hope this helps and good luck

Regards…..

i have been on my appeal today they didnt recend it they said they followed company procdures they had nothing from the customer that gave me 100 pound short as she wouldnt give a statement i asked about my letter of notification to my disaplinery they said we dont send them but on my contract it says they do i also asked about the shop floor workers that cause hudreds of pounds worth of loss of stock each week by not checking dates and they dont get disaplind its only the till staff my whitness was not allowed to talk i also asked why i was allowed to still work on my till after the till shortage for 5 days he said because i trusterd you but yet they dismised me so now i shall go forward with the other company procedure that was not carried out as i think i have been dismised unfairly
