    • Nick - point taken.  Thanks.  New version attached with changes in red. wv600 - I would send it off ASAP, and yes by e-mail both to the court and to UKPC.  That's because the point is not really to convince the judge, in fact judges don't have to accept SWSs and may well disallow it.  The point is to turn the heat on UKPC. The sooner UKPC get it the sooner they will wet their underclothes and the sooner they will discontinue and the sooner you will be able to plan your holiday activities ... well that's the idea anyway 😉 Supplemental WS with suggested changes - version 2.pdf
    • Don't appeal. This is a well known scam site to us. It's even been exposed on national TV by Joe Lycett! The traditional route was that we'd push Starbucks to cancel the PCN but that hasn't been working as of late. You've got 2 options: 1. Pay the £60 and the matter goes away. 2. Ignore them and engage with us. We'd rather you choose option 2. We'll be with you every step of the way. The good news is that MET rarely goes to court with this, providing you engage with us properly. The times they have is when people have either come to us late or have ignored our advice. Many times, once defended properly with our advice, they claims are either discontinued by MET or struck out by the courts. Get reading up by using the search feature and searching "Southgate Park", go see how many cases we have here of this scam site, get used to the process. Get reading at least 20+ threads
    • As above so it is essential you don't appeal and accidentally reveal who was driving. Stay quiet to Met and their pet DCA unless you get a letter before claim.
    • Hello, welcome to CAG. Thank you for the information. To answer your question, we don't recommend appealing at all. It will be a waste of your time and you could end up outing the driver. Ask any questions that you have but basically you keep an eye on this, keep the correspondence and if MET ever they send a Letter Before Claim/Action. If you get to that stage, we'll suggest being proactive. Best, HB EDIT: Could we see the other side of the PCN please? Sometimes there is information that they've left off.
    • Hi All, Can ii get advice on this PCN received at the services near stansted airport.

    • 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 think its a brilliant decision, test case dead in the water :D bye bye OFT and I'm back in court to argue my own case :D.

 

The banks won? against the OFT yes but the Law Lords have left a mighty big hole in their battleship.

this is section 81 from yesterday's judgement and goes to show just how out of touch with the world the Judges are:mad::mad:

 

I do not imagine that there are many customers who run a

current account that is permanently overdrawn in circumstances where they have not

specifically agreed an overdraft facility. Most customers who incur Relevant Charges run current accounts that are in credit most of the time.
