Hopgarden I have problems understanding your PCNs. On Post 5 you said that you had received a PCN dated 26th May 2021 received on the 1st June and was incurred on the 28th April. On Post 7 you said you had received a PCN dated the 7th July , received on the 1st June and incurred on the 28th April. I assume the 7th July was a mistake and there is just 1 PCN. On Post 47 you received from DCBL in response to your snotty letter a note from them saying that the PCN was dated the 23rd April. So my question is do you have two PCN dated 23 April and the 28th April or is one of those related you parents PCN. DCBL seemed sure that the PCN they were responding to was t he one on the 23rd. Also could you please check and confirm that the good news about the discontinuance on AUG 23RD 2023 was for a PCN dated the 23rd or the 28th? Could you please also confirm who is the keeper of your car and you are advising your parents how to handle Parking Eye by copying from how you handle your own PCN? If that is the case is it possible to post up their PCN as it is possible that their times, dates and wording may differ from yours which might make a difference. I noted for instance that you said in an early post that your parents didn't even park in a bay. Possibly the time in the car park was shorter too. In any case, both of you were parked in a car park that only permit holders were supposed to park. This makes the signs prohibitive so cannot offer either of you a contract. So you cannot breach a contract that hasn't been offered despite what they seem to think. Or more importantly what they want you to think, so that makes you feel like you should pay them what they are asking. When you don't actually owe them anything at all. -
The UK Parliament petitions website closed today. It will reopen sometime after the general election when a new Petitions Committee is appointed. This means all open petitions have unfortunately had to close early. The petitions Immediately Reintroduce the Parking Code of Practice was only open a few wks but managed to collect 374 signatures (His Change.Org petition has 1455 signings) Require communications from Private Parking companies to be traceable/trackable collected 300 signatures in the 5mths it was open. Thank you to anyone on the CAG forum who signed. It seems the Parking Code of Practice has only temporarily been shelved until a new LUHC ministerial team is appointed. Let's hope the new ministers can consult and implement this code quicker than the previous ministers. -

Don't think we can assume Labour will win the election with a majority. There are 5 weeks to go before polling day and anything can happen. Labour are on average 21 points ahead in opinion polls, but these range from 12 point lead to a 27 point lead. If the 12 point lead is most accurate and Labour lose support before polling day, we could be heading for a hung parliament. The opinion polls have proven to be inaccurate before. The most important message must be for everyone to go out to vote. Last election only about 67% voted and for a third of eligible voters to not bother, suggests that they don't think their vote counts or they think it does not make any difference who gets into Government. Website below notes election turnout percentages. Voter turnout in the UK 1918-2019 | Statista WWW.STATISTA.COM In the UK's general election of 2019, voter turnout was 67.3 percent, a 1.5 percent drop compared with the previous general election in 2017. -
Thank you for your input BankFodder and suggestions for not being "Kind", I will take that on board. July 10th was my mistake, I meant to put 10th June which is the first day after the 7th which is a Friday. Happy to see you are back "on the ball"! Appreciate your input jk2054, very helpful.

Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld
ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,
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-

Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available
BankFodder posted a post in a topic,
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.
