    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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.

What is the likelyhood of this if i was to make a claim?

 

I have a student account and a £1400 overdraft, if they were to close this and make me repay this immeadiatley, even with the £900 i am entitled to claim back i would be worse of financially.

 

I do not have a good enough credit score to open a new student account so could not simply transfer the overdraft.

 

Do you think its worth the risk? Advice needed!

hi...i have had my account closed by the natwest...firstly they are supposed to inform you giving you 30 days notice of account closure...in my case this was not received, but was informed a letter was sent to me. my account then became classed as a collection account, and any funds paid into the account were arrested and used to repay any over draft facilty you may have and any loan payments that are due, in my case they kept a month in advance for the loan repayment as well..

if you do not pay any funds into the account they cannot arrest them and are only able to make a formal demand for repayment of the overdraft, which you can make arrangements to do at your capability, which they are reasonably obliged to accept.

make sure you have another account open and any funds are transferred into that to ensure you are not left with no funds and can continue to have banking arrangements if needed..

dont let them abuse you and dont let them take your money..

Hi

My son had an overdraft of £500 but he was quite often over it in the last 18 mnths. We started proceedings and got paid last week. The chq was paid into the same account so overdraft is now paid off. They did write asking him for his card back but he told them the account was in dispute over unlawful charges & they said they would contact us again in 6 weeks. Thankfully the chq arrived before the 6 weeks was up.

 

Go get your charges back - it is your money!! good luck x

7th June mcol £30 + 276.00 + int17.37=£323.37 Abbey

Accepted £291 chq cleared 28th July

7th June mcol £120 + 1135.02 charges + 83.42 chq for £1438.44 paid to bank 2nd Aug

surely how the accounts were closed is not really the issue here...the help freely given shows only what could happen given that the account was closed and the proceedures that occurred following closure..if you do choose to reclaim charges and your account is closed, then surely being forwarned of any issues that may arise because of that closure is totally beneficial to you??

is this site not about helping each other and making each other aware of any pitfalls that may arise during any actions we choose to follow?:rolleyes:

Annie100 - I was not being rude, i was just trying to work out the circumstances surrounding the closure of his accounts - if you read my first post, what i'm trying to do is work out the likelyhood of the bank closing my account if i take action!

 

My problem is, that if my account is closed from under me, even with the money i claim back i'll be asked to pay back a lot more money than i can afford, and as i'm at uni it could proove a problem - which is why i need to work out the likelyhood of this happening, as if it is high then claiming back my charges won't really benifit me at all.

 

Jamesbond sorry if you also thought this and thanks for sharing your experience, hope you get it all sorted.

 

Lipscombe - thanks for your advice, glad you and your son had a good outcome!

not a problem and hope you get sorted...surely if you have a 1400 odraft that is at its limit and you reclaim your charges from the bank for 900 that will only leave a debt of 500? this must be a better position?

:)

Nope - because its a student account, this overdraft is free for me while i'm at uni and i don't need to start paying it back for two years yet, its not like a 'normal' overdraft, and if they remove the overdraft then i will have to find hundreds of pounds to pay the debt off, when i only have my student loan and a part time job - its just not feasable!

  • 3 months later...

I'd like to bring this thread back up for a little advice. My brother will be getting on to NatWest for his money back soon, he's just about to send in his SAR.

 

He has an agreed overdraft and a loan with them, what chance is it that they will be closed and defaulted and at what stage of claim?

 

The loan is a separate agreement and should be okay but I've heard bad things about the shirtiness of Natwest.

18/11/2006 Recieved Statements from Barclays.

20/11/2006 Sent Prelim for return of £575.

27/11/2006 Received offer of £290.

4/12/2006 Sent LBA.

8/1/2007 Filed Small Claim at court.

12/02/2007 Full settlemant from Barclay's.

12/02/2007 LBA sent to Mint.

Ropey you need to start a new thread on behalf of your brother if you want to have people help you. As stated in this thread there have been little or no incidences where people have had a Natwest account close purely due to claiming of charges.

 

As for loans these are totally separate from a bank account and will have no bearing on claiming bank account charges back.
