    • That is great news. Many people would have given up and paid after losing two appeals so well done for hanging in and fighting. It has paid off and they have finally backed down before getting whipped in Court. I looked at your NTD and your NTK again to see if there was a chance of going for a breach of your GDPR. Sadly although your NTK on its own could have well deserved a claim, the NTD is good enough not to warrant a claim even though it wasn;t compliant with PoFA. As it is the first Notice that mostly accounts for  GDPR breaches there is a reasonable cause for the NTD to have been issued. However you are now freed from worries about appearing in Court and you have learnt about the dangers of parking especially where the rogues that patrol private parking spaces are concerned. Thank you for making a donation and should you fall victim in the future to the parking rogues or anything else that we protect from, you are always welcome .
    • Hi guys I'm about to submit the defence as per below     There has been no reply to our CPR 31:14 request.  Is it worth adding that I (driver, not registered keeper) didn't actually enter or park in the car park and was sat at the petrol station forecourt the entire time?  Or is that covered by the simple points?   Thanks
    • a DCA is not a bailiff and cant enforce anything, even if they've been to court who are they please? sar to the original creditor FIO isnt applicable they are not a public body. who was this query sent too all the more reason to teach her young upon how these powerless DCA's monsters  work... she must stop payments now  
    • Unsettling the applecart?,  I'm going to be direct here, I know how this works , I've been in far worse situation than your relative, and I can assure you , now that there i likely a default in her name, it makes absolutely ZERO difference if she pays or not. Denzel Washington in the Equalizer , 'My only regret is that I can't kill you twice'... It's the same with a default, they can only do it once and it stays on your credit file for 6 years if she pays or not, and as it stands right now she's flushing £180 of her hard earned money down the toilet  so that the chaps at Lowell can afford a Christmas party. As for the SAR this is everybody's legal right, originally under the Data Protection act 1998 and now under GDPR, it's her right to find out everything that the original Creditor has on her file, and by not doing it the only person she is doing a massive disservice to is her self. As the father of 2 young adults myself, they need to learn at some point.. right?
    • Thank you for your pointers - much appreciated. dx100uk - Apologies, my request wasn't for super urgent advice and I have limited online access due to my long working hours and caring obligations - the delay in my response doesn't arise in any way from disrespect or ingratitude. I will speak to her at the weekend and see if she will open up a bit more about this, and allow me to submit the subject access request you advise - the original creditor is 118 118 loans and from the letter I saw (which prompted the conversation and the information) the debt collection agency had bought the debt from 118 and were threatening enforcement which is when she has made a payment arrangement with them for an amount of £180 per month. It looks as if she queried matters at the time (so I wonder if I might with the FIO request get access to their investigation file?) - the letter they wrote said "The information that you provided has been carefully considered and reviewed. After all relevant enquiries were made it has been confirmed that there is not enough evidence present to conclusively prove that this application was fraudulent.  However, we have removed the interest as a gesture of goodwill. As a result of the findings, you will be held liable for the capital amount on the loan on the basis of the information found during the investigation and you will be pursued for repayment of the loan agreement executed on 2.11.2022 in accordance with Consumer Credit Act 1974"  The amount at that time was over £3600 in arrears, as no payments had been made on it since inception and I think she only found out about it when a default notice came in paper form. I'm a little reluctant to advise her to just stop paying, and would like to be able to form a view in relation to her position and options before unsetting the applecart - do you think this is reasonable? She is young and inexperienced with these things and getting into this situation has brought about a lot of shame regarding inability to sort things out/stand up for herself, which is one of the reasons I have only found out about this considerably later Thank you once again for your advice - it is very much appreciated.

    • 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.

Dear ,

 

I received your response mail. An old man of my age with three children cannot involve myself in anything that will effect my profession and my family and I am assuring you that all aspect in this transaction must done in a legitimate arrangement. I contacted you based on the fact that your surname is the same with that of my late client.

 

Concerning the legal aspects of this inheritance claim. With all my years of experience as a legal practitioner, I can authoritatively and confidently assure you that all aspects of this transaction are totally safe, 100%risk free, and have no hazards whatsoever.

 

I was the legal representative/adviser of the deceased, and according to law, this entails that I am mandated to take care of all legal aspects of his business even though he is no longer alive. For several years before his demise, he was a close confidant of mine. Based on facts available to me, my deceased client had no next of kin to inherit the money he left behind. He came into Malaysia in the late 90's and established an import business. He traded on textile materials which he imported from Taiwan and China.

 

Based on my confidential discussions with him, he disentangled from his biological family during his early youth and lost contact with them many years ago, before he came to live and invest here. Until his demise in 2003, he had no correspondence with his relatives and I am totally sure that even if they are still in existence, they have no knowledge of his life and business here in Malaysia.

 

Based on this, I am assuring you that no one whatsoever will come now or after wards to lay claims on this fund, hence I decided to find someone to assist me disburse these funds which I will consider as a waste if it is left to be confiscated by the bank officials.

 

As his legal representative, I am the only one who can confirm to the bank, the claim by anyone as his next of kin/the beneficiary of this fund, and also authorize payment of this fund to such a person. This is my proposal: I want you to put up a claim to this fund, and when I confirm and authorize payment of the fund to you, and the money is transferred to you, then you will take 40% of the whole amount and remit 55% to me and 5% for motherless babies home.

 

If you are interested, then we shall proceed to execute this transaction. I will provide all the relevant documents of the deceased upon request. As soon as the bank receives your claim, they will notify me that someone is laying claims to the funds, and I will then proceed to confirm and authenticate your status as a relative of my late client and also the true beneficiary of the fund, and also make recommendations in your favor. Once the bank completes their verifications they will open up correspondence with you and initiate the process of the transfer to you.

 

All I have explained above are the exact steps and procedures which this transaction involves, and will take a maximum of two weeks to complete both the legal documentation process as well as the bank process.

 

However, I will only commence this process with you on the proviso that you pledge total honesty, respect the confidentiality of this transaction and keep it as such.

 

Based on my year’s experience, involvement of third parties in this type of transaction may bring complications which I do not intend to experience.

 

For familiarity, I suggest we provide copies of valid identification photocopy, and photos if any, attach here with My ID Card and My Certificate, kindly provide yours.

 

Also, for our correspondence to be easier, please send me your full contact details you may have. Such as your private phone number with your country code and also your fax number, to enable me reach you at short notice. You can find mine at the top of this mail.

 

Prior to making contact with you, I conducted a research on how best to execute this transfer, and I have equally made some arrangements towards that. Also, I have contacted the chief oaths minister at the high court Putrajaya, Malaysia for the court documents to authenticate this claim and the fact that you have the same last name as the deceased makes things a lot easier for us.

 

The chief oaths minister will be instrumental in securing the necessary documents which will legally and officially state and prove you to be the true beneficiary of the funds and authenticate your claim to the bank.

 

The will witness and the affidavit of fact will be prepared by the chief oath minister while I will be putting you in place as the next of kin of my deceased client, as well as the true beneficiary of his fund. I will also prepare some will witness documents and also swear an affidavit of fact in the high court in that respect.

 

The only financial involvements in this transaction are the fees for some official documents which we need to procure to empower the bank to transfer the funds to you. I will try my very best to accommodate these expenses but this does not necessarily mean you might not be called upon to assist in finance if need be, after all, we are both going to benefit mutually from this Transaction.

 

Once the documents are in your possession, then I will guide you to file the claim to the bank. Based on the information I gathered from the bank, you will be required to open a non resident Dollars account with the bank here in Malaysia where the funds are deposited (since the fund is held in Dollars), to enable them close down my late client's account and lodge the fund into your own account, before onward transfer to your nominated bank account in your country or wherever you may choose. I will prepare the power of attorney and letter of probate which empowers you as the beneficiary of the funds thereby instructing the bank to transfer the US$6.8Million Dollars to your account.

 

If you have carefully read all I have explained above and accept to act according to it, then give me a confirmation to initiate the process and send you an Oath Affidavit Form for you to fill the required information to enable me file the documents in your favor as next of kin of my late client/the beneficiary of his funds.

 

If there are any other questions you need to ask, kindly put them forward so that they can be addressed immediately.

 

Anticipating your prompt response and positive action.

 

Best Regards,

Mr. , Esq. / LLC.

My reply to them

 

Thank you for your email. Thank you for your ID as well all looks satisfactory. At this stage to progress any further in the matter and to show your genuine regards for this matter, I will need a bankers draft for the sum of $10,000 to be sent to me. This will be taken off my final figure. As soon as I receive this in the post by courier then I will happily send more details and any and all information that you require. As a solicitors firm I have no doubt that this is readily available to your firm.

 

Should you find this acceptable then please reply and I will email you my contact details as to where the bankers draft can be sent. As soon as the funds have cleared then as discussed all information will be readily provided.

This email - as you have posted it - contains no less than 63 errors in grammar, punctuation and spelling. That would seem to be about average for a genuine legal practitioner.

 

These scams are great fun to play with. I had one a ago, with the result that I got him to join my Church of the Psychedelic Manatee, full details of which can be found at this webpage.

 

I suggest you take a similarly increasingly silly stance with this chap. It's astounding what people are willing to do if they think they've got somebody conned.

This is a bit like the emails we received in my family stating a family member had been injured in Africa and needed us to deposit funds in an account for their healthcare...

 

Sadly for them it was spotted and upset a few people as my nephew was injured in the French Alps in March this year and we have first hand experience of what happens. Luckily my nephew had got decent insurance!
