    • Your page numbers should run through your WX and exhibits so im concerned its page x of 9.
    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.

    • Yep, those 'requirements' not met to shareholders satisfaction seem to me to be: 1. Not being allowed to increase customer bills by 40% (of which well over 50% of the new total would NOT be investment) 2. 1 plus regulators not agreeing to letting them do 'things in their own time (ie carry on regardless)

    • 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, can anyone help please?

 

i moved home about 4 years ago, with a lot of debts chading me, but ended up ill with the stress of it all. Since i moved, i have had no contact with any of them and i have now lost all track of what i owe, how much, who to etc... There were a few different credit tracing comanies on my back. I havent paid anything to any of them in around 5 years and i have not had any contact with any of them in about 4.5 yrs (maybe more)

 

I would like to get back on track but i don';t want to 'come out of hiding' in case they all start back at me the same way. I'm now working and just making ends meet with the bills etc.

 

A letter appeared today from a 'Swift Delivery' that asked me to call to arrange delivery. I was a bit dubious as it had no name on it, just an address so When i put the address though the net, it seems that it is really a compnay called ruthbridge ltd, a tracing and debt collection agency.

 

They don't yet know where i am, but i'm just worried that the fllod gates will open again. I know it's not the right thing to do, hiding away from it, but i really don't know how to start. Some of the debts may have been written off, but then i might end up with a massive bill which they want paid in full and i can't move again! :confused:

 

Any help or advice would be of use. I am sure that if this company find me, i'll be back where it all started, but i would really like to start the ball rolling and get back on track.

 

cheers Jay :confused: :confused: :confused:

Hi Jay and welcome,

 

I would suggest going to the citizens advice bureau and see if they can help you. If you do come out of "hiding" as such, you can ask some of the loan companies/debt collection agencies if they can provide a copy of your original signed agreement, I believe they can only chase you for debt where an original signed agreement exists. Once you have established the ones that have such agreements you can then arrange a payment plan and start paying off the debts. You will need to make sure you make arrangements that you can meet, give yourself some spare money each month in case of emergancies.

 

Do you have any idea how much the total owed could be??

 

Some of my debts are being handled by debt collection agencies and I have written to three asking them for proof of the debt, I do intend to stop paying any that do not have an agreement in force (this money I have been paying I will put to the other debts and pay them off quicker) One such debt, I am in dispute over, I believe there is about £13,000 outstanding, of which I pay about £200 per month to clear.

HI Jay

 

First of all plz get yourself to the CAB with as much info on the debts as possible. There is one thing that debt will never do and that is go away. I know it all sems daunting at the moment, but really CAB can help and will do whats called and income / expenditure form. That will show what you have left from your wages each week/ month. They can the arrange to pay as little as 1 pound to each creditor till the debt is cleared, and in a lot of cases can cease interest / charges being placed on the debt. I have been in this situation years ago and knew i would not be able to pay, however im almost debt free all because i done this.

 

Youa re not alone, millions of us people have debt chasing after us, and it takes an adult to put it right, so dont be put off or scared it really is the best move. Onve you get the debts into place you can then look at the charges placed on them, and who knows you may even be able to get them reduced even further with our help

 

Sue xx

All advice :p is given purely from personal experiences :mad: . If you are in doubt you should always seek legal / financial advice;) .

If i have helped in any way please let me know via personal message, IM in aol or clicking on my scales :D go on you know you want to really!!

Thanks cillitbanger, i intend to for now but will need to :o :o :o

Tigs, i can't even remember how much they were for, i think there were a few £3k loans but the last i saw, the total amounts owed were for ovder £4.5k with all the added charges... this is what sent me over the edge. It was after this that i got behind with other stuff so i think the totals are around £15k or so. I really don't know for sure tho :eek:

Well I think you either play a waiting game with them and wait until the 6 years is up and they cannot touch the debt or you contact any of the companies and try and arrange a payment plan, they can only make you pay what you can afford, don't be intimidated by them, apart from going to court (that can normally work in your favour) they cannot make you pay what you can't afford.

 

I must admit I think I would be happier paying off the debts than trying to hide from them, my situation was having a terrible effect on my health. I set up a payment plan with most of my creditors about 5 years ago, my original debt was for about £50k in total, now I owe less than £25k and if some of these debt collection agencies cannot provide agreement I will owe about £6,000.

I can't really see how the CAB would be any more use than the fantastic people running this site and the huge amount of experience we have amassed here to be honest but that's just me...

 

If you do need any more help, please feel free to come back, but start a new thread in the "General Consumer Issues" forum; that's where you'll get your best help for this particular problem.

 

In any case, welcome to the forum, and I hope you manage to get things sorted...?

I didn't say they would be more useful than the people on here, but in that sort of situation you really need to sit down with somebody and go through your options, also they help you fill in the forms. (all IMHO of course)

 

Also you have a person to go back to if you need to. Who is to say that this forum is going to be around for a long time?
