    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?
    • so a new powerless B2B debt DCA set up less than a month ago with a 99% success rate... operating on a NWNF basis , but charging £30 to set up your use of them. that's gonna last 5mins.... = SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. a DCA is NOT a BAILIFF and have  ZERO legal powers on ANY debt - no matter WHAT its type. dx

    • You could send an SAR to DCbl on the pretext that you are going for a breach of your GDPR . They should then send the purported letter of discontinuance which may show why it ended up in Gloucester and see if you can get your  costs back on the day. It obviously won't be much but  at least perhaps a small recompense for your wasted day. Not exactly wasted since you had a great win  albeit much sweeter if you had beat them in Court. But a win is a win so well done. We will miss you as it has been almost two years since you first started out on this mission. { I would n't be surprised if the wrong Court was down to DCBL}. I see you said "till the next time" but I am guessing you will be avoiding private patrolled car parks for a while.🙂
    • It is extremely disappointing that you haven't told us anything about the result of the hearing. You came here at the very last minute and the regulars - all unpaid volunteers - sweated blood trying to get an acceptable Witness Statement prepared in an extremely short time. The least you could have done is tell us how the hearing went, information invaluable for future users. Evidently not.

    • 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 C,

 

Just spoke to the local court what had happened was the case has crossed over with the application the lady on the phone said she recieved a application from the claimant for Judgement in default, so they issued it, but shortly after the file came down for the strike out she sad that she will remove the default right away, and refer this back down to the Judge for the strike out application.

Restons must have tried to default Judgement me!!!!! Bast****

thanks for following this, it seems it starting to get interesting.

Hi bh, congrats on being on the ball :cool:: Chris, lucky guess!;)

 

i've been keeping a watchful eye on your thread, as you know from previous posts on this thread, I'm going through exact same thing just one step behind you. Phoned my court the other day for update (it's been over a month since I filed the SO request) but they still haven't even processed it before a judge! I'm assured it will be dealt with this coming week, so assuming I get the same hearing, will be very helpful to see how you emerge victorious!

 

If I find any more out, or anything to help you, I'll let you know.

To err is human: to completely mess up is my peculiar gift.

The Act is clear on what is a cancellable agreement and what isn't.

 

I suspect this isn't as you would have signed it on the suppliers premises as their place of business.

'very wierd though this week recieved an annual statement from HFC bank telling me how much is outstanding on my loan.

Hi HFC have been sending these to everyone(who has accounts with them :lol::lol:), it is something to do with the legal requirement to send out statements of account every 6/12 months.

Yeah me too, I get a couple, very 'professional' statements they are too: look like a generic Credit Card statement in almost every way, as if to make it look like you REALLY do 'have an account' with these ****. God help me if I were ever to WANT to take an account with these monkey-sharks.

Is you hearing on the 21st or 23rd November ?

 

As car2403 has posted earlier, Restons are obliged to respond at least 7 days before the hearing....................but knowing Restons, they'll respond as late as possible. :rolleyes:

 

Yes, absolutely, they seem to have real issues complying with court orders - and they always seem to get away with it by the skin of their teeth :mad:

 

As it stands, technically, they can't submit anything at the hearing, even a witness statement, as they haven't complied with the orders :lol:

 

What is likely to happen, though, (again, :mad:) is that they will serve their "response" to the application by email and beg the Court for forgiveness, which they will probably get :mad::mad:

 

What can you do about it? Well, very little, in all honesty. You can say you are prejudiced by a later submission. If you do, the Court will likely adjourn the hearing and relist it - meaning that you have to wait for another hearing date.!!! (I've run out of smilies, now)

 

You could apply to the Court for an order that they do comply with the original orders, but that will take longer than actually going with the flow, for now...

 

Up to you, but I'd wait and see what their next action is. Me thinks you'll get a late witness statement, plus they'll fax it to the Court and ask them to allow them to submit late. IMHO, that is... ;)

Hi I took 3 copies of everything ........ only to be told 'that is defence, that is defence, that is defence'!!!! Nothing was looked at.

My strongest argument appeared to be no NOA and resulted in new POC:(

Good luck

 

Sorry to read of your Judge, Cymru.

 

However, better to be prepared than not.
