    • We need to see the actual document from the IAS where it is written - "The Operator's evidence shows no payment for the Appellant's vehicle, or anything similar. It does show two payments for the same registration in quick succession. I would take a reasonable guess, based on the circumstances described, that the person paying has paid for the registration of the person they assisted again." You can't just type it up yourself. At the hearing in July or August or whenever the judge will have two Witness Statements. One from Bank's director says you never made a second appeal. You say you did make a second appeal and the IAS concluded that payment was made. The judge will immediately twig that either you or the director is lying.  But who? Fail to show the documentation form the IAS and instead just produce something you've typed yourself will make it look like you just made up the appeal and you are lying and you will lose the case. Please let us see what the IAS adjudicator sent.
    • I used to have a retail outlet in London selling my husband's photography.  We also had a co-op with staff so they weren't directly employed by me, but I paid for the other overheads etc.  When my husband died, I carried on as usual for a while but then I became ill and moved quite far away so logistically was becoming very difficult.  I came to an arrangement (verbal) with one of the guys I trusted, that I would send him the images to print and sell as normal, and I wouldn't take any money, as a short term solution until I got back on my feet and worked out the best way to do things. He would pay all the  rent, insurance etc... Over a year later, not able to give things away for free anymore,  I drew up a contract as a wholesale agreement, so I would get everything printed and sent to him and I would invoice his for what he ordered. I noticed form the beginning that he wasn't ordering enough or frequently enough to be making any money, and was suspicious he was doing his own orders on the sly and ordering just enough from me to keep my happy.  I checked with my printer, which I've been with for 20 years, and he sad he wasn't getting orders for my images from anyone else. I emailed a few other printers to ask them to keep a look out for some images but I soon realised this would be impossible to police.  The only option really would be to buy a print from him and check the stamp on the back of it.  I finally managed to get hold of on the prints on sale, and sure enough, he did not order it through me.   In the contract he signed in 2022 it explicitly states that he must destroy all files I had previously sent him etc etc so e is in breach of that.  When I drew up the contract, I was careful to make sure it was legally binding, but before I let rip at him, I need to know where I stand.  The contract is here: PARTIES This WHOLESALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made effective as of 30th June, 2022, by and between ############################## The Supplier and the Client, collectively referred to as the "Parties," hereby agree to the following terms: TERMS AND CONDITIONS SALES OF GOODS The Supplier agrees to provide the following goods to the Client (“Goods”): Description of Goods ################################# Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b BOTH PARTIES AGREE: The Client purchases the Goods through the Supplier directly, and agrees to delete/destroy any previously held digital images (Goods) owned by the Supplier, and agrees not to use any such files for monetary gain, outside of this agreement, either directly or through a third party from immediate effect of this agreement. The Client purchases the other materials necessary for resale of the Goods independently of this agreement. The Client shall have exclusive rights for resale of Goods at ###########, and also with permission, as a retailer of the Goods elsewhere, provided that there is no conflict of interest between the Supplier and the Client. The Client is free to decide their own retail prices, for the Goods. The Supplier shall use #####  to provide the printed Goods on Fujifilm Crystal Archive paper, with Lustre finish, and will not use any other Printer unless #### cease to trade, without prior approval from the Client. The Supplier shall not impose restrictions on size or frequency of orders made by the Client. The prices provided by the Supplier shall not increase for a minimum of 3 years, unless the prices of the raw materials rise, in which case the client will be informed immediately. Any discounts/promotional prices of raw materials shall be passed on to the Client by the Supplier, and the invoice will show adjustments for this, as well as credit for return postage of any damaged goods. This agreement can be terminated by the Client without notice; the Supplier must give notice of no less than 90 days, unless the terms of the agreement are breached, in which case, the agreement can be terminated with immediate effect. PAYMENT Orders must be paid for upon receipt of invoice, via Bank transfer: ######### Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b DELIVERY AND INSPECTIONS All orders received by 12.00am (midnight) shall be processed by the Supplier the following working day and delivery of order shall arrive in accordance with the Royal Mail schedule, or DPD, should express delivery be requested. The Client shall be liable for the delivery charge which shall be added to the invoice. The Goods will be delivered to the address specified by the Client. The Client shall be provided with order tracking, and should any problems arise with the ordering system or the couriers (Royal Mail, DPD), the Client shall be informed without delay of any such issues. The Client will inspect the Goods and report any defects or damage to the Goods in transit as soon as possible upon receipt of Goods, and will retain damaged Goods for return to Supplier for refund/replacement. GENERAL PROVISIONS CONFIDENTIALITY The prices of the Goods and other information contained in this Agreement is confidential and will not be disclosed by either party unless with prior written consent of the other party. INDEMNIFICATION The Client indemnifies the Supplier from any claims, liabilities, and expenses made by any third party vendors or customers of the Client. GOVERNING LAW This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with UK Law. ACCEPTANCE Both parties understand and accept the wholesale arrangement stipulated under this Agreement. Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties has executed this Wholesale Agreement as of the day and year set forth above.   Signed by us both electronically.   I haven't broached any of this yet, and I am looking for some advice about what action to take.  The main issue I've got is that he has still go those images.  If I terminate the contract, I will need to know that he no longer has those images and I can't think of a bulletproof way to do this. I'm thinking I might tell him I will continue with the contract but ask for a  sum in damages and say that if I find out he's still doing it down the line I will terminate the contract and sue him for damages. The damages side of things I'm not sure how it would work as he is self employed, and I'm positive he doesn't declare all of his earnings to HMRC, in order to find out how much I have lost, would the court demand to go through his tax self assessments?  I'm not sure how to proceed with this, I don't want to lose that place as an outlet as it is in a prime spot in London, which is why I let him have those images in the first place as I would have had to pull out altogether at that point.  I am regretting it somewhat now though.  Please help.

    • 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.

Had similar from HSBC i.e. only blank forms and T & C's, sent them a request under CPR to try and focus their minds ... doubt it will but time will tell. Just trying to get rid of the pressure but it seems to be mounting not diminishing.

Hi again ... Have been going through the draft at post #24 and checking the points raised against my 'application form'.

 

Point 1 states that there is the missing title Credit Card Agreement Regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974. At the head of my application it is worded Credit Agreement Regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974.....So it would appear to me that this point is not valid.

 

Point 2.. prescribed terms .. Not sure if these are in my application/agreement.

 

Point 3 .. This seems to be the challengable point i.e. prove that this is one document.

 

Point 4 ... Does not seem relevant as I can read the document.

 

So does it boil down to the fact that it may not be one document and I need to re-draft just on this point?

Hi greatburdon

I just looked at your agreement and apart from the legibility issue which you can leave out if you can read it ! My personal opinion is all the points raised in that letter apply to your alleged cca as much as they do to my alleged cca! and you can raise those points in your letter as well!

firstly point one applies to you as well as i notice that as your agreement is a credit card agreement they got heading describing precise nature of your agreement wrong!The agreement should read Credit card agreement if it is a credit card agreement!Your alleged cca heading reads just credit agreement and missed out the word Card! on your front application form page!

The consumer credit agreements Regulations schedule 1 state- A heading in the prescribed form giving the nature of agreement so if it is a card agreement it should read Credit Card Agreement regulated by the consumer act 1974 Your title would have been right if it had been a fixed loan amount such as a bank loan then just credit agreement would have been right but yours is a credit Card agreement if you get my drift!:)

Alright the above error they made can be enforced under s65 by a court but it still means that your alleged agreement is not correcly executed on that point alone! and will cause them a bit of a headache! but put that together with more serious breaches of agreement regulations that possibly the prescribed terms probably not on reverse of document or same document! which would under s127 of 1974 consumer Credit Act render it entirely legaly unenforceable by a court if it is a pre 2007 alleged agreement and can not be enforced under s65 of act:D if you get a judge who know the law and you can put in a strong defence on this should it procceed to litigation,By pointing out wrong heading it is helping to press the point even more home that they have not got a correctly executed agreement and puts more fuel on the fire in my opinion! The more defects you point out the better in my opinion!:D

Received this morning a letter from Optima (first time on the scene) posted below, threatening allsorts..charging orders, legal proceedings, extra costs blah blah. They also kindly printed an I & E form on the back.

Do I just send a letter along the lines of this account is in dispute with Abbey, I do not believe the application form/agreement to be enforceable, so bog off?

 

I have still not responded to the production of the agreement by Abbey so will now deal with what is considered to be ommissions/errors in the agreement. (If I can get my head round what they are)

ACCOUNT IN DISPUTE

Dear Sir or Madam,

Account number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

 

 

I must admit that I am rather bemused as to why this account has been passed to yourselves, as it is in dispute with the **original creditor/DCA** and has been since DATE 2007.

Not only is this a breach of OFT collection guidelines, but also in breach of the CCA 74.

 

As **original creditor/DCA** are now in default of my Consumer Credit Act request, Subject Access request and have also breached s10 Data Protection Act request , I consider this account to be in SERIOUS DISPUTE.

 

As you are aware while my Consumer Credit Act request remains in default enforcement action is NOT permitted, under s127 this constitutes a complete defence at law.

 

Now I would respectfully suggest that this account is returned to the **original creditor/DCA** for resolution of these defaults and breaches, as **New DCA** cannot lawfully pursue any enforcement activities.

 

If **New DCA** chooses to ignore my dispute and attempt enforcement, I will initiate legal action and file reports with the appropriate authorities, including, but not limited to, Trading Standards, Office of Fair Trading, Information Commissioners Office, Financial Ombudsman Service and possible court action.

 

I hope that this will not be necessary and an acceptable solution can be accomplished.

 

I would appreciate your due diligence in this matter.

I look forward to hearing from you in writing.

 

Yours faithfully

BLAH

Hi greatburdon,

sorry i will try not to hijack your thread, I just got my CCA back and its identical to yours so all i have read here is good news for me. Just some thoughts have you double checked your application form ? on mine they have my date of birth wrong and the first letter of the name in the For Your Security bit on the form, dont know if that would count for any thing but worth a double check.

Also wondering if you got an Frequently Asked Questions form back with your CCA ?

Because after reading the points that sunflower 99 makes about the word card then looking at the FAQ's where they say,

 

1. What is the "copy executed agreement" you have sent me ?

 

We have sent you a copy of the credit agreement that you signed. Depending on how you applied (for example if you applied by post) this might be on the same page as the application form you filled out.

 

Iam starting to think that you could use this by highlighting the fact they are talking about some other agreement and not an alleged credit card agreement.

Hope that makes sense.

Hi djc1

Welcome to the Cag MBNA fan club!:) MBNA are very slippery characters! LOL as i am sure you have found out since joining CAG!When did you take your MBNA card out.? A lot of their ones before 2005 i think are unenforceable plus there is a belirf on ths site that many of them got shreeded:D Which will give them a headache in court as they can be complelled to bring in original agreement if it gets to court room.

Would welcome any comments, at the mo I'm inclined to just sit tight and wait for the next threat. They obviously believe they have now complied and I am still wondering if the 'application/agreement' is enforceable.

Hi GreatBurden

I agree with you very unlikely that what they are impyng is on that short scrap of paper is on reverse of your application form[i would eat my hat if an agreement from 2001 was correctly executed and actually had those terms on revese! LOL,I believe yours like main is just an application form and those ts and cs not actually on reverse,MBNA are being very crafty as they are implying but not actually saying that page is reverse just by seending it all together,Also someone had it confirmed by MBNA that all the early original agreements were shredded and put on microfilch for customer protection and security!!:rolleyes: LOL not possibly the fact that they were trying to save on storage space and none of those agreements were properly executed or legally enforceable in first place!
