    • Yep, true to form, they are happy to just save a couple of quid... They invariably lose in court, so to them, that's a win. 😅
    • Your concern regarding the 14 days delivery is a common one. Not been on the forum that long, but I don't think the following thought has ever been challenged. My view is that they should have proof of when it was posted, not when they "issued", or printed it. Of course, they would never show any proof of postage, unless it went to court. Private parking companies are simply after money, and will just keep sending ever more threatening letters to intimidate you into paying up. It's not been mentioned yet, but DO NOT APPEAL! You could inadvertently give up useful legal protection and they will refuse any appeal, because they're just after the cash...  
    • The sign says "Parking conditions apply 24/7". Mind you, that's after a huge wall of text. The whole thing is massively confusing.  Goodness knows what you're meant to do if you spend only a fiver in Iceland or you stay a few minutes over the hour there.
    • Hi and thanks It looks like they ticked all the boxes to me but I'll try and upload the notice. I was wondering if a witness to late delivery might be considered proof - I'm assuming they posted it as normal but Royal Mail stuffed up delivery. If not then they're really saying it just has to be posted within 12 days of the incident, regardless of when it is received. Annoying! edit ok thanks Honeybee here's my 2nd (actually 3rd) attempt at anonymising, copying and uploading the notice! Sorry about the state of it - I sat on it while distracted by my dog 🙃 pcn front.pdf pcn back page.pdf
    • ROFL - dont get upset just because someone (quite a lot of someones) dont want smart meters - well unless you get paid for it .. in which case ...   I assume you haven't been with Octopus long enough to be on one of the very long fixed price tariffs they offered before the prices went bonkers .. and that you dont use your electricity in the evening/lunch time if you think the 'agile type tariffs are good value .. let alone worth installing a smart meter for - high price a good disincentive for an evening cuppa eh? Let alone all your computer/tv etc time in the peak price evening or lunch time. - and boy do those peak prices instantly hammer your bill when those Russian and middle eastern issues kick off.   I would only have considered a smart meter if solar panels had been an option for me - but roof is oriented completely the wrong way. Oh - and My opinion hasn't changed since the smart meter trials 40 years ago, because neither have the issues (well not enough) but I'm happy for you. Be happy for me.

    • 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.

It makes references to condition '10' (where is condition 10) ? and reference to condition 7.2 ?? They don't seem to have sent you the t's and c's ? And I can't see anything that relates the pages together certainly when you read in line with this -

 

A valid credit agreement must contain certain terms within the signature document (s.60(1)(2) CCA 1974). These core terms are the credit limit, repayment terms and the rate of interest (SI 1983/1553 (6 Signing of agreement) which states that the prescribed terms must be within the signature document. (Column 2 schedule 6). s.61(1)(a) states the agreement must contain all the prescribed terms and be signed by both the debtor and on behalf of the creditor.

 

Further, s.127(3) CCA 1974 makes the account unenforceable if it is not in the proper form and content or improperly executed.

 

In Wilson and another v Hurstanger Ltd (2007) it was stated “In my judgment the objective of Schedule 6 is to ensure that, as an inflexible condition of enforceability, certain basic minimum terms are included which the parties … and/or the court can identify within the four corners of the agreement. Those minimum provisions combined with the requirement under s.61 that all the terms should be in a single document, and backed up by the provisions of section 127(3), ensure that these core terms are expressly set out in the agreement itself: they cannot be orally agreed; they cannot be found in another document; they cannot be implied; and above all they cannot be in the slightest mis-stated. As a matter of policy, the lender is denied any room for manoeuvre in respect of them. On the other hand, they are basic provisions, and the only question for the court is whether they are, on a true construction, included in the agreement”.

 

It could depend on how a judge sees it too....did you say they had sent you a default notice ? was that compliant ?

Hi 42man

 

Thankyou for clarifying my application, the only default notice is for late repayment fee, not sure what to do next should I challenge their applicatiion, send an SAR or just wait for the default notice to come.

Can I put a query on this one?

 

On the 'agreement' it says its covered by the CCA 1974, but it says it is for a credit card and current account.

 

I didn't think a current account was covered by the CCA 1974 and also I didn't think you could have one agreement for 2 separate entities?

 

 

Regards

 

David

I often wonder about this. To me it should be "partially regulated by the CCA1974", as is required with PPI on credit cards.

Hi

 

Thanks for coming back to me, I have just had the usual charges late payment, default charges.

I sent them a letter on 19th november, which 42Man suggested in link 13. I guess this is their reply to it but they have not enclosed none of the other requested material. Shall I send the letter again or just ignore this one.

Your comments are much appreicated.

This is a bit of an interesting one. For Credit cards there are three "prescribed terms" - the terms referred to in the Hurstanger judgment - the Credit Limit, Repayment Obligations and the rate of any interest.

The Credit limit and repayment obligations are there.

The interest rate is less certain. The creditor seems to have stated a rate of 0%. If that 0% is only a promotional rate, then the rate of interest may not have been stated (or correctly stated). If the 0% rate isn't formally a promotional rate, but in reality the lender always intends, after a certain length of time to vary that rate to some other rate, then it is still possible for the court to look to that reality, rather than to the form.

 

So, was the 0% rate promotional? How long did the promotion last? Do you have the statements relevant to the very beginning of your use of this card (which will show what interest rate was being applied)

Hi

Thanks for coming back to me, this was a promotional rate of 0%, not sure how long it was as this was a internet based account so no paper statements were ever produced. I have sent a SAR, but no response and sent the letter in post 13 by 42man to morrcroft, but only ever received said agreement.

Hi

 

received letter from Moorcrofts yesterday,

 

stating that I had not been in contact to discuss repayment for this debt. we require payment in full now or an acceptable offer of repayment to prevent any futher action.

 

In order to stop our recommending our client to to undertake further action such as instructions to solicitors to issue court proceedings we are prepared to accept payments of £x per month. If you wish to take advantage of this repayment opportunity you must make a payment using the payment slip attached. On receipt of the first payment we will forward further payment slips.

 

unless payment is not received by 10.00am 22/2/10 we may recommend court proceddings to be commenced against you without further notice.

 

Such action could incur you in further costs and may also affect your future credit rating. It is therefore in you best interests to give this matter your immediate attention.

 

Should you need assistance please contact us

 

Yours sincerely

 

should I reply or just ignore this letter.

Hi Siteman42

 

I sent your letter to Moordcrofts posted in link 13 Robinson Way/Horwich Farrelly - going to court?. received back copy of said credit agreement again but no further information that was requested. I have today received the following letter dated 01/02/2010 giving me until 08/02/2010 which is impossible as today is 04th March 2010. ( I have posted a copy below) not sure whether to send letter out again from post 13 or do i ignore this letter from Moorcrofts as idle threats.
