    • deed?  you mean consent order you and her signed? concluding the case as long as you nor she break it's conditions signed upto? dx Yes sorry. they called it a deed at first in court.  Then Judge said she was happy to have it sealed as something else  exact names of orders in message above.     The disease was tested for when his cardiac testing was done immediately after purchase and part of the now sealed case.   However, results were disclosed incorrectly and I only found out  two days ago.   This disease did not form part of my knowledge during the case as I had been informed of a normal result that was not the case.   it is perfect clarity of a genetic disease where as the previous cardiac issue could be congenital until the pup is genetically tested. 
    • Hi, Halifax recently sold a credit card account of mine to Cabot. I am unemployed and have no assets and was thinking of making token £1 payments for 12-18 months in order to drag things out a bit and reduce the chance of Cabot being able to get the correct CCA documents from Halifax if I requested them in future. However, I saw on the pages on this forum about defending county court claims that one of the standard approaches when defending such claims is to say “I had an account with bank X, but I don’t remember the details and so don’t know if I owe this debt…”. If I made £1 payments to Cabot, would it prevent me from using such a defence in future? OC: Halifax DC: Cabot/Wescot Card account opened: 2016 Defaulted: 2023
    • Paperwork says sealed consent order and composite settlement agreement      YES  ADDISONS DISEASE 
    • Hi, This may be the wrong place for a thread BUT If you receive a defence, can you send a CPR 31.14 request for document mentioned in the defence, and then apply to proceed with the case only after (14) days passed or they respond OR is it only if you receive a claim I see @dx100uk thread is for when you receive a claim, but can you also do the same when you receive a defence?

    • 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, I am after some advice regarding an incident my moped was involved in.

 

Basically (stupid I know) I let my mate ride my moped round the block. He was uninsured to ride my bike and was knocked off by a car driver who was obviously at fault and arrested at the scene for dangerous driving. Initially I thought 'Oh theres no way I can claim because my friend was uninsured'. However after talking to a few people they seem to think I may be able to make a claim against the car drivers insurance for the damage to my vehicle caused by his negligent driving.

 

Does anyone know if this is true? Thanks in advance for your help and advice!

You can make a claim against the driver of the other car YES.

 

You are the owner of property that was damaged by the negligence of another driver.

 

Legally and morally you should NOT have allowed your friend to ride your moped, what would have happened if your friend had caused an accident or injured somebody, who would they have claimed off of?

 

Write to the driver of the other vehicle and detail your unisured losses and ask him to forward those on to his own insurers.

didnt the Police ask for your mates details?? if he was uninsured thought they would have taken him in aswell.

 

check the small print in the policy wording as I know with motor car policys they state "you are not covered for any damage etc if a person not named on the policy is allowed to drive etc etc"

Yerp he had to go to court and got a years driving ban.

 

In regards to the small print in the policy, surely that would not be relevant as it is not my policy that I wish to claim on, it is the third party against who I wish to make a claim.

 

Does anybody know any solicitors that will give me advice about this?

 

I have rang several so far and all they ask is 'was anyone injured in the incident' as soon as I say no they say 'oh sorry we cant help you with this bye!'. Seems the moneys only in personal injury for them! :mad:

I'd agree with that, but the OP is NOT claiming off his own insurers, he is claiming off the other party, hence why the claim will succeed.

Finally spoke to a helpful solicitor!

 

They have advised me that I need to make a Small claim in the County court against the negligent third party driver.

 

Mossycat I know that I was wrong to let my friend drive my vehicle but it was literally round the block.

 

Whoa, long long long before Small Claims Court (that's your last resort) is to write to the other driver and give them or their insurers a chance to deal with it.
