    • Hi. I have been away on holiday I got back today to a letter "Notice of Proposed Allocation to the Small Claims Track" It says I have to complete Small Claims Directions Questionnaire (Form N180) by 22nd April which I haven't done as I was away Suggestions, or is it too late? Thanks
    • So to clear up, you think you've paid this £1200 as part of the £4000, leaving a net overpayment of £2800 (which you don't want back?) Can you provide proof of payment (bank statements for the standing order) showing that you've paid this £4k over? Do you still have to pay for the child currently? In regards to your second query re: PiP it's only a press release right now, nothing has been confirmed. Just remember it's election year so there's no guarantee that the current or any future governments will follow through with it.

    • 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,

 

Been searching trying to find an answer but nothing relevant has come up as of yet so...

 

I checked my bank account a few days ago to find "UNPAID DIRECT DEBIT .. NOT ENOUGH MONEY" but I don't understand it.

 

I've had a few DD's bounce in lately but the company (O2) returned it and then I paid these on another card to make sure they had the money to cover the bills.

 

Are these charges or have they just sent them again (in which case O2 have my money)?

 

Matt.

 

Edit - amounts are £35, £25, £25 and a £5 charge and £25 charge...

 

My bank is basically empty now and I NEED this money. Obviously I wasn't expecting it to be taken out :S

Matt, if you pay by card to O2 then make sure you cancel the Direct Debit to avoid o2 automatically representing it, which I assume they did do.

I would normally pay by DD but had to pay by card as I had no money in the account at the time.

I'm assuming you didn't cancel the Direct Debit, right?

No I didn't, I assumed that if they had the money then it wouldn't be requested from my again.

 

So do you think O2 have my money and my O2 account is in credit?

No the bank have returned the payment unpaid. It would be worth checking with O2 if they have charged you because the Direct Debit was bounced/returned unpaid.

 

You need to start the process of reclaiming the charges back.

Damn, so I've got to claim it that's gonna take ages :(

 

£115 which I need right now. Grr.

There is no bank error with regards to the way the payment was processed so yep it might take time.

 

If this was the first occasion then they might refund some of the charges as a gesture of goodwill.

Ok I'm still a little confused on this. It happened again (finances sorted now though!). The people in the call centre repeat the same things over and over and don't have a clue what I mean when I state the charges they're looking at are different.

 

The following appears in my bank statement (quite a few times) and they don't seem to be able to see this. Only the fee's show up, but what the hell is this?!

(date, description, amount taken, current bank balance)

 

1. O2 try taking money which I don't have.

2. O2 refund the money and ask for it to be paid ASAP.

3. I pay it on another card - balance settled.

4. Abbey charge me for overdraft (understandable).

5. Abbey charge me "unpaid direct debit" not even equal to the amount it was (£35 in this case).

 

What is #5? Argh!!! Is it a charge? Are they resending the money to O2? Where has my money gone :s

Ok found out this is also a charge which means I'm being charged a monthly fee, a fixed fee and then the £35 is because the direct debit amount was over £30 or something like that. The branch said nothing they can do, speak to telephone banking but I hate phoning them.

 

Have already had a refund recently but going to try my best to get the extra £180 in charges back. Especially when I need £390 (+ spending money) for my first REAL holiday next month. :)

 

Edit - For the record I found this..

Requested = Charge

£0 to £9.99 = £5

£10 to £19.99 = £10

£20 to £29.99 = £25

£30+ = £35

 

In my case the phone bill was almost £40 so I got charged the £35 there and also £25 for going overdrawn. :(
