    • There's a thread somewhere about someone sending the baillifs against Wizzair that is quite hilarious. I would love to see someone do the same to Ryanair. Question is, should you be the one to take that role. You are entitled to the £220, if your flight was from the UK. If it was TO the UK I suppose it is more of a grey area... though the airlines I know have been using £220 as standard. Not that surprising for Ryanair, the worst cheapskates in the universe, to go for the lower amount, and if you forward this to the CEO he will probably have a jolly good laugh and give his accountants a verbal bonus. After all he's the one who said and I paraphrase "F*** our customers, they'll fly with us again anyway". While we would all love to see Ryanair get wooped in court again, I have to join my fellow posters in thinking it's not worth the hassle for (hypothetically) £7 and not sure it will expedite the payment either. It's already an achievement that you got them to accept to pay.

    • 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 have recently been issued a parking charge of £60 for parking my vehicle in what I thought was a parking area for a family service that I attended. I was distraught to find that I had received such a harsh punishment from a genuine mistake.

 

Anyway, I have been reading other posts about these parking charges and I am thinking of taking everyone's advice and ignoring the charge and the letters that I will no doubt be getting!

 

The only trouble is that I am so worried about it! If I do leave it and the charges do go up £3 per day, I am not in the financial position to be affording such payments. I am soooo worried about this. Having said that, I am wanting to stand up to these bullies and show them that they can't defeat me!

 

Has anyone actually ignored the threats and have come away laughing?

 

I have been reading what Barnsley Boy has been saying in his posts, who seems to know what he is talking about, but I am just so worried about it all.

 

Normally, I would have just sent the payment but I started to google UKPCS and I found 2 websites both stating to ignore the fine and threats.

 

My reason for this post is to see if anyone else has ignored their threats and what happened to them.

 

Thanks ever so much!

The £3 a day is legally know as 'liquidated damages'. It's a tool to scare you into paying, thinking the costs will escalate indefinitely. Legally, it's complete tosh and completely unenforceable, as is the original charge. How on earth are you causing them £3 loss a day?

 

Tens of people ignore these unenforceable invoices every day. Expect 3 letters from UKCPS before they give up.

 

Bear in mind they have taken a punt on taking 2 people to court in the last few weeks. I'm not trying to scare you, I'm being honest.

 

Why they've done it I have no idea (their paperwork is truly shocking and their cases are flimsier than a very flimsy thing). Ego kick probably.

 

I'd ignore and be happy that there's a 95% chance of them giving up.

 

Don't pay - you'll kick yourself for the rest of your life for being a mug!

You have already had the advice that you need.

IGNORE !

Don't write!

Don't phone!

DON'T PAY!

And above all, don't worry about it.

 

Bear in mind that it's not a fine!

It's an unenforcible invoice.

 

You'll get a few letters from the [problem]-monkeys. Then the next desk may send you a "debt collection letter".

If you're really lucky, they may pass it back to the office cleaner to send you a "solicitor's letter".

Ignore them all.

The only thing that you need to deal with is a court summons which contains the official court seal......... About as likely as you winning the jackpot in the Euromillions!

 

If they were ever silly enough to go down that path, then you will be given enough information to make the monkeys look very silly in court.

 

IGNORE!

Lots of people have safely ignored these invoices and absolutely nothing happened.

hi, i too got a good ole ukcps parking fine (as did my brother) both totally unaware that peter can put his signs anywhere he feels, he actually gave me a ticket while i was moving out my flat and id paid to park in my own car park too.

 

as for you been worried, dont bother the guy chats bubbles, he threatens you when you ring and trust me dont call him you get nowhere, DONT send any payment with a dispute you'll never see it again as your technically saying your agreeing your in the wrong, no private parking company can take you to court, and im sure as of yet ukcps still havent taken anyone to court, i actually sent a letter into the dvla about ukcps i found a template on here and sent it in, they then foudn the photographic evidence had wrong dates on it therefore told him to cancel the fine, he also does loads more phoeny things such as (on my brothers parking fine he's got the wrong car make down) and little things like that, my brother completely ignored him also and after 5 letters he gets bored and doesnt send you anymore.

 

also go on his website its a good laugh and you'l find his company solely runs off silly arses paying him, also it looks like a 5 year old created the website.

 

all in all dont pay him a penny, leave him to send you letters, sit and chuckle at them, warn your friends about him and he'll stop soon enough, you could even keep the best letter on your fridge door (the bit where he threatens to take you to court lol)

Whilst you're right that the whole thing is a sham and they have about 3 braincells without them, UKCPS are trying it on with two people in court at the moment. Whether they'll turn up on the day to be whooped is another matter.

 

Desperate times in PPC land.

 

Fact remains you should never ever pay and there is a 1% chance of court, which can be easily defended should the need arise.

  • 6 months later...

ukcps dont go to court as he doesn't stand a chance tbh, i got a ticket from ukcps but the dates were wrong on the photos so the dvla got them to take the fine off and told them they were unable to chase me, my brother also got a ticket from them for parking on yellow lines, he got his ticket last May, ignored all the letters and needless to say hasn't heard anything since, just ignore them they'll get bored eventually
