    • Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for their help in this matter. Since my last post I have received a reply from Plymouth Council Insurance Team concerning my wife’s accident (please see enclosed letter and photo of the offending Badminton post) which they deny any responsibility for the said accident. I feel that the Council is in breach of their statutory duties under the following acts: The Leisure Centre was negligent in its duty of care and therefore, in breach of the statutory duty owed under section 2 of the Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957. Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 (the Act) to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all their employees, and others who might be affected by its undertaking, e.g. members of the public visiting the Leisure Centre to use the facilities. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 that requires employers to assess risks (including slip and trip risks) and, where necessary, take action to address them. The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) require the risk to people’s health and safety from equipment that is used at a Leisure Centre be prevented or controlled. I would like some advice to see if my assumptions are correct and my approach to obtaining satisfactory outcome to this matter are accurate. Many thanks   PLM23000150 - Copy Correspondence.pdf post docx.docx
    • Talking to them does not reset the time limit, although they will probably tell you it does, they'd be lying. Dumbdales are the in-house sols for Lowlife, just the next desk along. If Lowlifes were corresponding with you at your current address then Dumbdales know your address. However, knowing that they are lower than a snake's belly, you would be well advised to send them a letter, informing them of your current address and nothing else. Get 'proof of posting' which is free from the PO counter, don't sign it, simply type your name. That way then they have absolutely no excuse for attempting a back door CCJ.   P.S. Best course of action, IGNORE them, until or unless you get a claim form......you won't.
    • A 'signed for' Letter of Claim has been sent today so they have 14 days from tomorrow... Lets wait and see what happens but i suspect judging by their attitude they wont reply 
    • I am extremely apprehensive about burning our files.... I do not know why, so it is becoming an endless feedback loop. Scared to pull the trigger to speak in the desire not to mess up my file. 
    • Hi All, So brief outline. I have Natwest CC debt £8k last payment i made was 7th November 2018 Not a penny since. So coming up to the 6 year mark. Can't remember when i took out the  credit card would be a few years before everythign hit the fan. Moved house 2020 - updated NatWest as I still have a current account with them. Then Lowells took over from Moorcroft and were writing to me at my current address. I did get a family member to speak to them 3 years ago regarding the debt explained although it may be in my name I didn't rack it up then went contact again. 29th may received an email from overdales saying they were now managing the debt. I have not had any letter yet which i thought is odd?  Couple of questions 1. Does my family member speaking to lowell restart statute barred clock? 2. Do you think overdales aren't writing to me because they will back door CCJ to old address even though Lowells have contacted me at current address never at previous? ( have no proof though stupidly binned all letters  ) Should I write to them and confirm my address just incase? Does this restart statute barred clock? 3. what do you think best course of action is?   Any help/advice is appreciated I am aware they may ramp up the process now due to 7th December being the 6 year mark.   Many Thanks in advance! The threads on here have been super helpful to read.

    • 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.

Hi Diddy and all.

 

I have received a cheque from Cap 1. Full payment £95. What a let down.

I should not have sent them the copy of the Court order.

Never Mind, onward and upward.

 

I have also had an e-mail from that nice mr. Berman telling me that wendy starr is dealing personaly with my requests (demands?). She has been out of the office but will e-mail me on the 24th. I wonder if mentioning the national press had anything to do with the unexpectedly cordial e-mail?

 

Cit B I am about to PM you.

 

what cheque? (smirk)

Thank you both for trying. I have looked at the suggested material and please believe I've really looked, but nothing so far.

 

Am I right in thinking that I need the following:

1. Application Form (n244).

2. Witness statement.

3. POC.

 

Is this format the same in all types of cases?

Can I use Part 8 Special procedure for this? Or perhaps summary judgement?

 

Hello..... Hello... is anybody out there? I'm getting very lonely.

 

Trouble is you are asking for really specific legal info, most people on here's experience in courts will be defending rather than taking a bank/dca to court.

 

I believe PT2537 has stated in his "why you shouldnt use s77/78....." thread that you'll need to apply to the court for a declaration under s142 using N244 app form and witness statement and evidence bundle to support this.

Hello Shadow thank's for your input.

Problem.. Cap One have admitted in writing they have no agreement. In, I think, the Rankine case the judge said that as there was no agreement it could not be challenged under s142. Now, we all know that was an appalling decision but has it been appealed or have other people in my position used s142 succesfully.

From the research I have made it appears that "if a case is unlikely to involve a major dispute of fact then it may be better to use Part 8 Special procedure". Well its a fact they have no agreement.

Or; perhaps I could ask for Summary Judgement now that Cap One have admitted they have have no agreement. Why should they be allowed to break Data Regulations.

The Rankine decision left the matter open ended which to my mind is a vacuum that needs to be filled. The company could not be challenged but could do as they wished without any legal control with regards to data sharing. This cannot be right.

 

Comments Please.

 

Pawnbroker thank you.

Ok, another route is an "injunction against enforcement" order, I'm afraid I know nothing more than the name, but if you look at the smt37 vs MSDW thread (the cpr31.16 one) the judge suggested it was the way forward if barclays couldnt find the agreement and this was backed up with PT stating the same.

Interesting. In my case against SDFC where it too is admitted there is no agreement, the judge before he adjourned the set side hearing (it is the creditor applying to set aside my default judgement against them) suggested that I should have used part 8?

Sorry for the delay in reply I've been off line for a couple of days.

 

Basa I find this very interesting!!! It does make sense, how much do you know about it?

I wonder if an injunction against sharing my data could be included.

 

Can we debate please.

I don't really know a great deal, all I know is the judge looked at my PoC and the judgement and said it should have been on a part 8 basis.

 

My claim was for a declaration (s.142), removal of DN and cash. The judgement was for the cash only.

 

As the judge did look at the whole claim and the defendant (creditor) did reply to the whole claim, I am hoping it might all be looked at in January.

 

TBH I still think part 7 is the correct usage.

 

I did look into injunctive relief but I read injunctions always go multi-track. Have you seen the cost of multi-track? :eek:

 

As far as I can see, with no agreement, they are in default of s.78(6) and cannot enforce; with an unenforceable agreement you can apply for s.142 declaration.

 

I'm still a little nervous the High Court might allow creditors to supply 'reconstituted' agreements.

Hello Basa

Do you think the judge was commenting on the whole case or part of it?

 

On the injunction to stop passing info front I think we have a case via the Info Commission. But that could take months although I believe we can claim damages.

 

I am still wary on the Rankine front. The Judge(?) stated that as there was no agreement there could be no s142 thats why the part 8 interest me so much. Although Rankine is a bad case I think they may try to use it as a last gasp.

 

They cannot reconsitute a signature!! they have to bring the original document to court. check out 31.14 How to get them to reveal. It well worth the trouble, sorry can't remember who posted it but its excellent.

 

Can you please clarify part 7? Have you posted your POC?

 

John

P.S any comments welcome

I think he was commenting on the whole case, cash, declaration and default removal.

 

The ICO are no help at all in default removal. They think ANY transactional history implies consent and a business right to process. I still intend to argue my case under the DPA though.

 

Using Part 8 instead of Part 7 makes no difference to the basis of your arguments.

 

Rankine is a bad case as is McGuffick (similar premis of no agreement). In Rankine the judge argued no agreement means no 142 declaration. In McGuffick no agreement means no enforcement.

 

However no creditor can enforce without an agreement.

 

No they can't reconstitute a signature, but I fear the High Court might rule that a reconstituted agreement WITHOUT a signature can prove an enforceable agreement, but I don't know how that might work in practice.

 

I've read that thread several times ("why you shouldnt use section 77/78 CCA 1974 if you want the signed agreement" - PT2537). It is an excellent WIP.

 

But IMO it is useful only where a creditor cannot or will not disclose an agreement prior to action.

 

I haven't posted PoC, but my thread is here: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/legal-issues/222131-opposing-set-aside.html

 

I'm not 100% clear on Part 7/8. Part 7 is the usual for money and/or legal argument. Part 8 is for cases where "A claimant seeks the court’s decision on a question which is unlikely to involve a substantial dispute of fact".
