    • This must be part of the new tactic from Evri.  They know they are going to lose. They take it to the wire and then don't bother to turn up in order to save themselves costs and of course they don't give a damn about the cost to the British taxpayer and the extra court delays they cause. This is a nasty dishonest company – but rather in line with all of the parcel delivery industry which knows that their insurance requirements are unlawful. They know that their prohibited items are for the most part unfair terms. They know for the most part that a "safe place" is exactly what it means – are not left on somebody's doorstep in full view. They know that obtaining a signature means that they have to show the signature not simply claim that they received a signature. They are making huge profits especially from their unlawful and unenforceable insurance requirement. Although this is less valuable than the PPI scandal, in terms of the number of people who are affected nationwide, PPI pales into insignificance. I hope the paralegals working for Evri are proud of themselves and they tell their families what they have done during the day when they go home.
    • Your PCN does not comply with the Protection of freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9[2][a] (a)specify the vehicle, the relevant land on which it was parked and the period of parking to which the notice relates; The only time on the PCN is 17.14. That is only  a time for there to be a period there would have to be a start and and end time mentioned. of course they do show the ANPR arrival and departures  times but that is not the parking period and their times are on the photographs not on the PCN. They also failed to comply with S.9[2][f] as they omitted to say that they could only pursue the keeper if they complied with the Act. That means that they can only pursue the driver as the keeper cannot be held liable for the charge. As they do not know who was driving and Courts do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person they will struggle to win. Especially as so many people are able to legally drive your car and you haven't appealed giving them no indication therefore of who was driving. Small nitpicking point-the date of Infringement was 22/04/2024. They appear to be saying that they can charge an extra amount [up to £70 ] if they have to use a debt collector. You do not have a contract with a debt collector so they cannot add that cost. You paid for four hours so it can only be the 15 minutes they are complaining about. You are entitled to a ten minute minimum grace period at the end of the parking period which would be easier to explain if the car park had been bigger. However if you allow for two minutes to park and two minutes to leave that gives you one minute to account for. Things like being held on the way out by cars in front waiting to get on to Northgate or even your own car being held up trying to get on to Northgate at a busy time. then other considerations like having to stop to allow pedestrians to walk in front of you or being held up by another car doing a u turn in front of your car. you would have to check with the driver and see if they could account for an extra one minute things like a disabled passenger or having to strap in a child . I am not advocating lying since that could lead to serious problems [like jail time] but there can be an awful lot of minor things that can cause a hold up of a minute even the engine not starting straight away or another car being badly parked as examples. Sadly you cannot include the 5 minute Consideration period as both IPC and BPA fail to comply with the convention that you can include that time with the Grace period.

    • Hi all, I wanted to update you and thank you all for your help. I am delighted announce that after the case was struck out due to no response from Evri, judgement was issued after I submitted the forms and I was just about to take it to warrant.  today I received an email from the claims department requesting my bank details to make payment for my full award. The process has been long since the initial proceedings  in January i must say your help and guidance has been greatly 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.

After announcing to me son its gammon tonight, he added, sorry but all your foods horrible. HHHHmmmm I say maybe you would like to cook it yourself. He says sorry mum dont mean to be rude, but you are not a good cook.

 

Well to be honest there is room for improvement, but can you go wrong cooking a gammon joint and putting the oven chips in and tin of sweetcorn?

 

Hes cooking tea tommorow :madgrin:

Unfortunately I have firsthand experience of these terrible standards and am considering a formal complaint about the way night staff in particular mis treated me when I bed ridden and couldn't cut my food or reach a drink etc. Night staff would often just basically clean me and left it to the day staff to clean me properly (imagine trying to sleep in your own urine). The article describes perfectly the way in if a patient asks for 'too much' attention they neglect them more :(

wisdom teeth/gum infected AGAIN!!!! :-x I'm thinking about asking for them to be removed now I've had enough. Does anyone know, as i couldn't get an NHS one so had to get a private dentist, if i have the removal in hospital do they charge you more? i have issues which means it will probably be a hospital job.

Babybear39 wote: Unfortunately I have firsthand experience of these terrible standards

 

That's dreadful, Baby Bear - I'd go for the formal complaint, unlike OFT/Financial Ombudsman, at least they (usually) pay attention - my OH's father was treated terribly by a doctor in his surgery at a moment when he was dying - formal complaint and meeting resulted in action taken against offending doctor.

 

(Apologies to last poster, I didn't mean to 'talk over your head' - your post appeared after I'd posted about NHS)

Ouch Mungy.

If you need emergency dental treatment in hospital you're covered under the NHS, so no charge.

Hope you've got some good analgesia? and antibiotics. Infection MUST be cleared BEFORE surgery starts.

So sad to hear of bad nursing care BB.

As Tilly says there are some very good staff out there in hospitals and comunity settings battling with what little resources they have.

The NHS is in a mess and things are gonna get a whole lot worse with the new NHS reforms.

I feel desperately sad for those on the receiving end of bad care........................staff must fight and speak out when they are put in that situation or they are letting their profession down.

 

I for one will not tolerate bad nursing care and am not affraid to fight for it....................which I have done...............I have my thread in the NHS Forum.

Keep up the fight against Bank Charges.

Still nothing has been done by the Government to reduce Bank charges which is putting many people into poverty. They return a pymnt for say £5 and charge between £15 to infinity and beyond to return it. They then rub salt in the wound and charge an overdraft fee. Banks do profit from the charges even though they argue in Court they don't and this practise has to stop. The fee should cover what it costs for the service and no more. The claims have been in the system for so long now maybe we should all start again with them as the interest they owes us has increased somewhat. We need to find an MP with grit and determination to get answers. I want to know the charges different Banks take and I will enquire in another forum as it's criminal. Just taking and taking from those who can least afford it.So a quick summary, prices increase and then because people are short of disposable cash, don't buy. Full stop to any economy growth.
