    • Just a little something for consideration When a card is compromised, the replacements can be set up to automatically allow or manually re-add, old recurring transactions. The card issuer may ask you to confirm legitimate transactions which they would effectively 'migrate' to the new card Some do - some don't. Some staff on some cards seem to be entirely unaware/uncaring about this. Some card issuers expect you to sort it all out manually.   BUT if the leak is an ongoing lyca leakas it seems - as soon as you or your CC supplier give it to lyca/the leak source - compromised again     A note on security DONT use the same email or phone number for your banking as you do for sims etc. Although a bank eg santander leak would compromise this Infp seems to suggest that single/compromised multi factor authentication customers are priority targets, with more robustly secure cards being hit by 0.00 tests first Consider that the email address is one of the OTP recieving options AND one of the OTP security checks prior to sending the OTP - with the phone number being another So if they've got your card and email (same email for banking and end contact) - and you aren't forcing a phone OTP - you are compromised.  
    • Thanks for posting up the back of the NTK. The good news s that as it does not comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act, it means that you are not liable for the charge as the keeper as I explained in a previous post.  The PC fails for two reasons. The first is that it does not specify the period of parking. All it does is list the arrival and departure times of your car. Obviously that does not include the time taken to drive to the car parking space, manoeuvre the car into the space and later drive from the space to the exit. Nor does their times include things like getting kids disabled people out of and into the car as well as things like returning the trolley whilst still being parked. All of which can add a fair bit of time to the parking period which can then be subtracted from their ANPR times and makes your actual parking time a lot shorter than 118 minutes they seem to think it is. The second reason is that they failed to ask the keeper to pay Schedule 4 Section 9 [2][e]  (e)state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper— (i)to pay the unpaid parking charges You as keeper are now in the clear which is a good reason for you to contact Sainsbury  stating that you are being pursued as the keeper when you are not liable under the Act as well as the oher things I suggested in my previous post. If you don't get it cancelled with Sainsbury this could drag on for months with endless letters unlawfully pushing the price up to scare you into paying.  
    • Brilliant! That's great to hear and honestly pleased I'm wrong, my advice was out of concern. I checked some of your previous posts last night and you've been giving great advice to others at times. Bringing a claim can be serious (counter-claims etc) and it didn't appear you were knowledgeable based on posts so far. Far from an expert myself, just interested and will try to help. I'll sit on the sidelines, best of luck with the claim!
    • Thank you so much for the advice  I will try and up my savings to £500 for the next 6 months. Although I do still have an uphill battle, I feel more able to deal with it.  I hope my experience with the cifas marker helps someone else who finds themselves in that quite horrible situation. It is a huge weight off my shoulders getting it removed.

    • 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 everyone,

 

I ran into some financial difficulties back in 2007, and had a visit from Rundle & Co regarding some outstanding C/Tax.

 

After reading this great forum, I located the notice of seizure document I received from the Baliff.

 

I never let me in but just want to check his sums were right.

He placed a levy on my old car that was on the drive:

 

On the sheet it states:

 

Council Tax : £880.40

Levy Fee : £51.00

Attendance : £39

 

Total to pay : £970.40

 

Thanks to a kind hearted Dad he paid the Bailiff off.

If I remeber right he was after 3 different accounts but at the moment I can't find the other paperwork.

The advice i'm after is:

Would I be in my rights to ask for a screenshot of the accounts or would it be to long now.

 

Thanks

Hi everyone,

 

I moved out of an address in 2007 and thought everything had been paid.

On Saturday I received a letter from my old council asking for a outstanding balance of £48.01 asking me to pay the amount within 7 days or else.

Is there a letter I can send them asking for proof of the debt?

 

Thanks

 

JJ

No, just a standard letter saying your statements show the qualifying years as paid in full and can they send you an explanation of the requested arrears.

 

Make sure you send any letters recorded delivery or even special delivery as they will hit you with a liability order that will cost upwards of £60 depending on the council.

Hi, thanks for . Have sent a letter recorded today asking for proof of the arrears. I know it was all paid as I feel into arrears and it was handed over to a Bailiff and paid them fully (I can't see a bailiff missing out of £48)!

Just had a reply back, they reckon that it was a benefit overpayment from 2007, and that I should get in touch with the benefit section.

Why should I have to keep getting in touch with the different departments just to be pushed from them both. All I want is proof of the overpayment!

The problem is that on the council tax side all you usually see is an adjustment for recovered council tax benefit there tends not be any reason why stated. You can give a figure but for the actual reasons why the benefit was recovered you need someone from the benefit side to look in to it.

But as usual one department doesn't talk to another, all I want is some proof.

Spoke to the benefit department and they don't have a copy of the award anymore on file!

If I owe I will pay it but I want proof before I pay it.

There has been no reason why after 3 years they are deciding to ask for it.

Just had a letter today saying if the amount isn't paid by the 1st then I have to appear in court, I am steaming!.

Spoke to them on the phone wanting a full explanation.

I am going to write another letter wanting all court action stopped until my complaint has been looked into.

So how was this paid in 2007? Can you show paper like bank statements to show the amount you paid and that is was correct.

 

It's not good enough for you to just say you want proof, you will have to be prepared to defend and show that it was paid in full.

 

Why don't you send the council an sar request (costs £10) and you will get back everything they have on you.

Hi, when I left my old address I sent in all my paperwork for my benefit, all the council tax which was owing was paid. I don't know if I still have any paperwork regarding the payments now. Sending a sar might help but they must have a copy of the readjustment of the benefit which is what I am asking for.
