    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...
    • I would say You should accept it - I HIGHLY doubt you will  be able to claim for letters at trial ans they’re offering you that, which is higher monetary value than interest.   Also they raise a good point, getting interest at anything above 4% is lucky these days, yes judges give it, but rarily above 4%   Also you might find depending on the judge  you don’t get some costs if you take it all the way over £7.40 when court woukdnt award letters costs and thus meaning their award would be less than evris offer which was made    Up to you though but the wait will be 3-4mo for a trial date at least

    • 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.

Right,

 

I am wanting to claim back the PPi on my very old Marbles, Barclaycard and Egg cards - I had the cards approx 5 years ago. Ive not kept any of my old statements etc. but I know for definite that I had PPi on both Marbles and Barclaycard and at one point my balances would have run into about £5k-£10k on each, so there's considerable potential to reclaim £££s in missold PPi. I only ever made internet applications for credit cards.

 

Im a little confused as to where I start, first do I need to write to the establishments and get a copy of all my statements?

 

I successfully claimed back thousands in unfair bank charges a few years back and whilst I know this is going to be a long drawn out process Im keen to get it sorted once and for all.

 

Im just not sure where to start, since the accounts have probably been closed, Im sure I have records of the account numbers somewhere, where exactly do I start??

You need to send them all a SAR each including all of the info you do have, acc. no., name, address, etc.

 

They should then send you everything you need. Beware Marbles are a nasty bunch :mad: my PPI complaint is now with the FOS and has been for 18 months, they are still investigating.....

 

Marbles were adament that they would not give me back a penny, even they all they had regarding the PPI was a dodgy on-line application form :rolleyes:

 

Not for the faint hearted but go for it anyway, get your cash back!!!!

thanks Guys. Well I've hit a brick wall already. Basically my account was closed in or around 2005/2006. Apparently they can't even find any record of my account - Ive since moved house so have no record of old statements etc.

 

I have been passed from pillar to post and back again and have just had my 4th phone call with Marbles who have passed me back to HFC who still have no record of my old account. Its so blooming annoying. They kept saying to me "are you sure you had a marbles card?! - well yes of course im blooming sure"!!

 

Now I dont want to send the SAR without an account number on it just for them to return it saying they have no record of it. HELP!! - I used to make all my payments online and all I have is my old log in for the internet - I dont have my password - apparently this is still not good enough and they still have no record of me :-( - my card was probably passed to a debt collection agency but Ive even checked with Experian and there is no record of it. I definitely 5,000% had one!! I bought my wedding ring on it I remember upping the balance that day with them to go and collect it!

 

HELP!!

the only way to do this is to determine how you orignally made your monthly payments. if this was through a bank via a debit card or by cheque there will somewhere be a record of who the funds were paid to.

 

You may have to SAR your current account with your bank to find out the info. If you paid by cheque these would eventually have been returned to sourc(your bank) to be held for 6 years. These can be returned to you on request, they probably will have the account number written on the back ;)

I cant believe I just opened up a seriously old document on my PC - I knew Id kept the numbers somewhere - will be sending the SAR on Monday and also to Barclaycard, Egg and Capital One.

 

I bet they say the numbers are invalid or something..... :confused::rolleyes::confused::rolleyes:

 

T'will be interesting to see if this works out i.e. getting money back - I can't believe how relatively easy it was to claim back from Halifax and Woolwich.

 

Here goes nothing....

I had a loan with Egg for £5000. Ive found the old account number - it was fully paid up etc. and I think with PPi as well. Ive been reading some posts about having the contract deemed null and void but Im a bit confused when reading about it. How do I start a claim for this. Do I send an SAR to Egg asking for the initial contract and statement breakdown as I am with Marbles and Barclaycard?

 

Thank you guys!

I have now received back my credit card agreements etc. from Egg and also the loan documentation. I paid the credit card off using the loan which I then defaulted on and it became part of my IVA. The loan agreement is pre-2005. Do I have any grounds at all to get this loan agreement nulified? Sorry I keep trying to bump this thread up but no one seems to read it?!

Apparently they can't even find any record of my account They are legally bound to keep your account information for six years after the last transaction on the account so if it was closed in 2005/2006 they should retain the information by law until 2011/2012- Ive since moved house so have no record of old statements etc.

Just a catch up on your thread.

 

Please see this link for record retention.

 

http://www.dur.ac.uk/resources/records.management/Finance.pdf

 

If they have no records and the period is still within the six years you should insist they produce the documentation of destruction duly authorised by their data controller and then bang in a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service asking for compensation on the loans.

 

The bang in a complaint to the Information Commissioners Office for the failure of the bank to maintain records for the required statutory period and the Office of Fair Trading pointing out the unfairness of the treatment you have received and last but not least the Financial Services Authority complaining about the unfair treatment of you a consumer by you banks.

Received statements although no copy of agreement from Marbles. Have checked and about £900 worth of PPi on there which I most definitely did not authorise. Time to start claiming?

Im having a bit of trouble navigating around this forum. Is there a first letter to send the same as with the bank charges? Also, they have included the terms & conditions but not my original agreement - is this a problem. I went through the paperwork briefly yesterday and I actually emailed them in 2005 asking them to cancel my protection but they didnt. There was a note on my file in there. Funny also, how the next note on the file is where I asked for a credit increase, my credit was PERFECT (at the time) no reason whatsoever to decline me an increase - think it could be because I cancelled the protection?? - or coincidence.

No there is no standard template for PPI. Such is the complexity of the subject.

 

I will enclose a copy of one of my claims for mis-selling PPI and you can pick and use anything from this letter to assist you.

I am now convinced that I was mis-sold these PPI policies for the following 7 reasons:

 

1. Responsibilities When Underwriting a Policy of Insurance: On each occasion, when the details of a loan were discussed Your sales advisors failed to check my personal circumstances at the time of the sale, which they are under obligation to do when underwriting a Policy of Insurance. If they had done so, they would have realised that the PPI policies were useless to me. At no time was any attempt made to ascertain if the product provided was fit for purpose, suitable for my needs or if indeed it was required at all.

 

2. Alternative Insurance Cover: Your sales advisors in each case failed to ask me if I had any alternative arrangements for insurance cover. My employer has a generous illness package which would cover a period of sickness as follows: 6 months full pay followed by 6 months half pay. I would also be entitled to a generous redundancy package and a substantial payment would be made in the event of my death in service (more than suffice to clear the balance of the loan).

 

 

3.Failure to Supply Important Information with Regard to Significant Policy Exclusions: I was most definitely not informed that the PPI policies could contain certain exclusions which could affect me and my ability to claim on the policies if I should need to. Additionally I was never told that Pre Existing Medical Conditions could invalidate my policy and I was never asked if I had any Pre Existing Medical Conditions. Indeed your Loan Customer Duty of Care Checklist and the Loanguard Certificate of Insurance to which the Customer Duty of Care Checklist refers (forwarded under cover of Reference N) contain no reference to any Pre Existing Medical Conditions or includes any questions to me on the subject. I am in fact in receipt of a 40% War Disablement Pension from Her Majesty’s Government (HMG) since 1991. One element of this pension includes back injury which I now know is an exclusion in your PPI Policies. I also believe that I would also be excluded on at least one other existing condition.

 

4. Widespread PPI Mis-Selling: I cancelled the PPI policy on xxxAccountNo xxx on 7 Jan 2007 after becoming aware of the widespread mis-selling of PPI by some financial institutions, following recent media coverage and recent OFT and FSA investigations regarding the mis-selling of PPI. I believe this is borne out by Point 3 above. I am also aware that the question of PPI cover is the subject of an ongoing inquiry by the Competition Commissioner.

 

5. Wholly Inappropriate PPI Selling Bonuses: I understand that some employees are paid higher bonuses if they get prospective creditors to take out PPI with loans. How can the best interests of the customer possibly be met, if there is a clear conflict of interest between your responsibilities to me, and the drive of your employees to sell Payment Protection Insurance whether it is suitable or not in order to receive bonuses?

 

6. PPI Loan Interest payments miscalculated: Since I cancelled the policy, I have actually received a smaller reduction in the PPI loan interest payments than the figure stated on the agreement. The explanatory letter sent to me has, I believe, confirmed that I have paid for single premium PPI policies on each loan taken with your establishment.

 

7. True Nature of Single Premium PPI Not Explained: No explanation was forthcoming from any advisor on any occasion on the full extent of single premium PPI policies or the fact that they would offer little or no refund if the loan was settled early or if the insurance was cancelled. The statements you have forwarded on accounts xxx and xxx, show no element of any refund of PPI or PPI interest when the accounts were settled on refinancing. There was also no explanation that the cost of the PPI premium would be added to the total cost of credit and interest added for the full term of the agreement. I believe this practice is unlawful.

 

I now believe that the single premium PPI policies attached to the loan accounts were both extremely unfair and totally unreasonable and offered me very little, if any protection value whatsoever. I am therefore requesting a full refund of all costs including all single PPI premiums that have been paid, the interest added to these premiums and the payments, that I have paid to date.

 

Furthermore as I believe I have been unlawfully deprived of this money, I also expect the repayment of the interest at the Statutory Interest rate of 8% applicable to of each of the single premiums.

 

Details of the single premiums for each account with the interest payments made are as follows:

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.

 

Keep at them. Do not give way and do not accept all they tell you, they will delay and stall for as long as they can to prevent repaying you your mis-sold PPI.

Thanks is there some sort of table in Excel form like wiht the bank charges forum for calculating interest and also the 8%?

 

I think my APR was 14.9%. Im unsure how to calculate the interest. Do you just calculate the 8% interest if it goes to Money Claim Online??

 

Do they have a time line to respond to the initial letter for requesting charges back i.e. do I have to stipulate how long they have to reply to my letter?

 

Should I specify within the letter the contents of their emails in 2005 where I asked for my PPi to be cancelled?

 

Thanks.

Sorry I should add that I was in an IVA with Marbles being one of the creditors however I have just been petitioned for bankruptcy - the hearing is in January 2010. With all my cards, loans etc. I took out insurance and looking at the statements now I was paying OVER £300 a MONTH in insurance payments alone. Whilst I admit that my complete recklessness iwth spsending when I was younger is to blame for my bad history I cannot help feel that with the extra £300 I would have had in my pocket each month I could have "perhaps" managed my debts a little better.

This is the draft letter I am working on:

 

I write with reference to the above account. From the information provided I can see that I requested to cancel my PPI insurance on [ ] and the following month a refund was given in the sum of [ ]. I am now thoroughly convinced that I was missold this PPI policy for the following reasons:

1. Responsibilities When Underwriting a Policy of Insurance: On application when the details of my application was entered on to the internet, you failed to check my personal circumstances at the time of the sale, which they are under obligation to do when underwriting a Policy of Insurance. If they had done so, they would have realised that the PPI policies were useless to me. At no time was any attempt made to ascertain if the product provided was fit for purpose, suitable for my needs or if indeed it was required at all.

 

2. Alternative Insurance Cover: I was not asked if I had any alternative arrangements for insurance cover. My employer has a generous illness package which would cover a period of sickness as follows: 6 months full pay followed by 6 months half pay. I would also be entitled to a generous redundancy package and a substantial payment would be made in the event of my death in service (more than suffice to clear the balance of the loan).

. 3. Widespread PPI Mis-Selling: I cancelled the PPI policy on [ ] on [2005] after becoming aware of the widespread mis-selling of PPI by some financial institutions, following recent media coverage and recent OFT and FSA investigations regarding the mis-selling of PPI. I am also aware that the question of PPI cover is the subject of an ongoing inquiry by the Competition Commissioner.

 

4. True Nature of Single Premium PPI Not Explained: No explanation was forthcoming from yourselves on any occasion on the full extent of single premium PPI policies or the fact that they would offer little or no refund if the insurance was cancelled. The statements you have forwarded on account [ ], show no element of any refund of PPI or PPI interest when the accounts were closed. There was also no explanation that the cost of the PPI premium would be added to the total cost of credit and interest added for the full term of the agreement. I believe this practice is unlawful.

 

I now believe that the single premium PPI policies attached to the credit card were both extremely unfair and totally unreasonable and offered me very little, if any protection value whatsoever. I am therefore requesting a full refund of all costs including all single PPI premiums that have been paid, the interest added to these premiums and the payments, that I have paid to date.

 

Furthermore as I believe I have been unlawfully deprived of this money, I also expect the repayment of the interest at the Statutory Interest rate of 8% applicable to of each of the single premiums.

 

Details of the single premiums for each account with the interest payments made are as follows:

[THIS IS WHERE I AM NOW STUCK, WAS GOING TO SET OUT SOME FORM OF TABLE LISTING EACH TIME THEY HAD HIT ME WITH PPI - IS THIS HOW TO DO IT?]

HOW THEN, DO I WORK OUT THE INTEREST?

Im ready to start claiming my refund on the ppi on my Marbles credit card but I cant work it out. I have added up all the amounts and stuff but am really stuck on working out the interest. Have asked around and there doesnt seem to be any fool-hardy calculator or method for calculating monthly PPi. Can I just add the total of the claim and put on 14.9% or is that completely the wrong way to do it??

This is the way I have calculated mine. There are two calculators to use, the first one will work out the contractual intereset, the second the standard, simple 8% interest.

 

ok this is the first calculator

 

Compound interest calculator

 

go through your statements starting with the oldest first. Put in the amount of PPI, the date, the interest rate and select the 12 monthly button. Press calculate. Then write this amount down. Do this for all of your PPI payments. It will calculate the Contractual Interest that you have been charged. Once you have worked out all of your amounts, add them up. This is the total amount of PPI + interest you have paid.

 

Then put that figure into the next calculator which will work out the 8% simple interest. The final figure is the amount you are claiming back.

I wrote to Marbles with the amounts, didn't hear anything back. Proceeded straight to the FOS and have had back a final reply stating that they have no intention of paying out and that the computer-generated tick in the box on my application form alongside my signature was proof that I agreed to let them take £80 a month in insurance for 2 years. I have notes from my file where I asked for it to be cancelled but never received a refund. Have re-contacted FOS and asked to proceed with complaint. Hopefully they will uphold in my favour.
