    • I've had a quick (well, quick for a thread of this length),  read of this thread and to be honest I'm struggling to make heads nor tails of the actual crux of the issue here. You seem awfully convinced that whatever is going on is worth the fight and the odds are in your favour but with how the thread has gone it seems that one trail goes cold so you simply move on to another in an attempt to delay the inevitable. All it does is end up digging holes and confusing others and yourself which means any advice given to you is completely pointless. I note that for the life of this thread there has not been any documentation or correspondence uploaded for people to have a look. Have you got any that you'd be willing to redact and upload for members to assist you? Right now, it seems people are shooting out advice while being in the dark because it's starting to become very difficult for people who weren't here at the start of this (including myself) to follow along. Right now, this whole thread is just hypothetical "He said, she said" and is going nowhere fast. Nothing more than basic advice can be given which, as you've sought out some legal advice, is likely not sufficient to actually come to any sort of conclusion. I, personally, am starting to agree with others that it may be best to consider bankruptcy and put the matter behind you.  
    • Thanks for coming back to us. There are no guarantees - but remember that so far MET have not had the guts to put even a single case before a judge.  Not once. Yours is one of seven court cases. Three ongoing like yours. In two MET bottled it as Witness Statement stage approached. In one the allocating judge decided their Particulars of Claim were rubbish and threw the case in the bin. Just the one victory by MET by default when the motorist stupidly didn't file a defence. So there is every chance that MET will throw in the towel in your case too if you stand firm. Please keep us informed of what is happening. Regarding being abroad, that is no reason for things going wrong, you can request an on-line hearing and we've had several cases where the PPC gave up when the motorist moved abroad. But please keep us in the loop.

    • 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.

Sorry, I have to disagree. Humbleman probably would as well. Going to court against the lenders counsel is, in my opinion very dangerous. There are a few cases coming soon that, if they go against the lender, will help things greatly.

 

That is correct on both counts but from what I have seen so far the average solicitor working for Ratio/Cartel etc could not find their arsehole with both hands.

There are millions of agreements with prescribed term and other serious breaches but all the significant claims companies so far have failed to make the write off of agreements work in anything other than very small numbers,no use at all to the average joe

Sorry, I might not have been clear in my previous post - I didn't mean to take the lenders to court to get agreement deemed unenforceable, I meant to allow the lender to be the claimant as if they cannot provide a compliant agreement under CPR before court, then they are unlikely to get the agreement enforced

I would initially write to the Managing Director of Ratio Money - Matthew Porteus and entitle it `Formal letter of complaint` outlining your issues. I would also contact the Ministry of Justice and do the same.

Billy, Ratio have gone under, there is no ratio.

I have been informed that a number of Solcitors are having their Ratio Audit report reaudited by a firm called Credit Card Audit Limited. They are part of a claims management company called Bank Charge recovery Ltd

Wonder how many times you can advertise your company and get away with it/ TonyB33 has advertised his in just about every post he submits.

Ratio have gone under? Oh lord lol.

 

Well, I'm quite philosophical about the whole situation to be honest. If it weren't for their initial (clearly misplaced) enthusiasm, I wouldn't have googled some of the things they said. I wouldn't have found CAG and learned about CCA's, SAR's, Telephone Harrassment, Notices of Assignment, Deeds of Assignment, Data protection etc.

 

Annoyed at losing £490? A little. Pleased at finding this site and learning shedloads - most definitely. I'm in a much stronger position now.

I just received this email:

 

Dear MisterTBone,

 

Thank you for your email which has been recorded with ref XXXXX.

 

We became aware that Ratio Money went into administration on 25th March.In order to give appropriate advice I recommend you call us on 0845 450 6858 and give your reference number

 

Regards

What makes it worse is that I originally signed up with THE CLAIMS WAREHOUSE, who in turn were using Ratio Money to do their legal work, etc.

 

Now, The Claims Warehouse are attempting to absolve themselves from any obligation or work due.

 

Keep an eye on them as well; this does not bode well.

Mister TBone

The Clams warehouse CANNOT absolve themselves from refunding customers. it was them I assume you paid? If so, they have to give you your money back. contact Trading Standards about it. be quick, they may not last as long as you think.

Unfortunately, unbeknownst to myself, I gave the Claims Warehouse my card details, and they then paid Ratio Money directly with my card.

 

I had no knowledge of this at the time, as the Claims Warehouse were the supposed organisation I was transacting business with.

Yes, Today. Appears to be genuine, can not see what he can get out of such an approach if not genuine as I would not give real name. Story may appear on the Sunday Mirrow. Shame it is not a paper with much of a reputation or depth.

Don't want to rain on your parade and I hope you get things sorted but I have had cases where the same thing happened in September 2008,CFA with sol,barristers opinion etc and to date still no progress-and now no chance of a refund.

Oh yeah and solicitors regularly have been dropping cases after taking them on so Ratio just sold them to another solicitor- in some cases this happened 4 times with the same case!

Has anyone responded to MoJ re Ratio and if so what is the outcome?
