    • 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.

I can always tell when a subject angers myself with the amount of spelling mistakes I make.... I guess it's the same for you eh burlyb. There is a couple of threads in the bear garden on this subject, join in on them... I think you'll find most people have a similar opinion.

 

This reminds me of the tories condemming Jimmy Carr, but "not commenting" on Gary Barlow...

Farming out jobs abroad is morally wrong, and puts hard working people of THIS country on the scrap heap and they then get labelled benefit scroungers..... the MP who suggested that anyone who is paid cash in hand is morally wrong needs his own morals sorting out.

Writing something on a Facebook group and not realising that everyone can see it. My father now knows that I'm obsessed with someone. Can't believe he asked who. As if I'm going to tell him that.

Maybe if VAT was a more affordable rate people might be able to afford to pay it, but when it adds a fifth to your bill it's little wonder so many want/have to avoid it if they need essential work doing.

Life is like an echo, it all returns......The good, the bad, the false, the true......So if you give life the best you have, the best will come back to you.

Vat is not removed from the materials part of any job so that still gets paid.....................Gauke lookes like what he is.........................a total wang and they are more bent than anyone.

 

There are only a few builders,plumbers,electricians or carpenters that I wouldnt trust that I have met during my time as a general builder and hundreds of ones that I do trust but theres NOT one MP or prime minister that I would trust and I know the feeling on that runs very high nationwide and not just on these boards................come on UKIP the common sense and a real backbone party.

I wonder now how much prison time Brooks and Coulson will NOT get and how much longer Cameron will be steering us for due to I bet Brooks has much much more to tell about country suppers and the likes

By US standards this looks like a faithful remake so probably won't get a second series.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Burlyb, not a good thing funerals, I've had two this year, one was a very very close friend who died unexpectedly at 46 years old, and a few weeks after that was an aunt (actually my dad's cousin - but in Italian fashion she was called aunt, as are her sisters... her son who is 49 is called our cousin although he is actually something like second cousin first removed!). My aunt had had motor neurone disease for the last 18 months of her life so it was a release for her.

 

Not one of my favourite days as I have to go and sign on later this afternoon and in between go and see my jobcentre Work Programme adviser, however I am well prepared for both.

 

Also have to phone council so not feeling very brilliant at having to deal with three lots of officialdom today.

As suspected, rang local council and can't get through, got on phone system, then told I was 2nd in queue, went to a ringing tone and then told I was 8th in queue and 15 minute wait! Tried again a couple of times and got similar. Letter of complaint going to council with copy of phone log and invoice for time, printer ink and paper!

 

I am very much against this 'council job sharing' and call centre philosophy so this is my way of protesting.

 

Just rang again and there are 15 people ahead of me in queue and 10 minute wait time - flipping joke!
