    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location
    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • 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.

As a company Muck Hall are best ignored. They will eventually send you their complete series of silly letters including one that look like a pay cheque urging you to get in touch and threatening all sorts of ill that will befall you. Like the smell of a rotting turd they will eventually disappear with absolutely no input from yourself.

 

Oh yes they will send the odd text message to your home phone.

 

They are the lowest of a pretty low industry and can be safely ignored because of their crass stupidity and general ignorance

how long approx for them to disappear ?

 

I'm on my 4th letter from them today (had the paycheque one as the 3rd one)

 

not worried about them at all, they don't have any phone number for me, they don't have a prayer of getting a valid CCA so I'm not even wasting a £1 on them, so they can't use any shenanigans to try and reset the statute barred clock (which is now measured in months away)

 

the letter today was offering me a 25% discount for early settlement, filed under bin.

I had chasing letter from Makenzie hall back in March 09 I sent them Statute Barred letter, they sent it on to Meritforce debtforce doorstep collection agents who didn't turn up at my door btw, I sent them the same letter and included parts about passing on statute barred debts etc. I've heard nothing from either of them since, but now have Lowell chasing for something different. Also Both letters from Muckers hall and Meritforce refered to Lowells. Looks like thier just fishing, dont bite! ;)

If Worst Credit have passed it to a company as useless as Muck hall you can be 100% sure its totally UNENFORCEABLE. In fact hundreds of people with a similar name to yours will have got identical letters from Kilmarnock as they try to CON someone into paying them

they aren't even trying now.

5th letter appeared today, pleading for me to make a reduced settlement offer.

 

addressed to

 

Name

Street

 

no house number

 

this debt is unenforceable, but not statute barred yet. So I expect a few more fishing attempts by them yet.

 

At least they don't have my phone number

update on these people: some how they got my work phone number and rang me in work... I am shaking.. If work got a wind of this I would be in trouble: It was only that we have called display and the number was an external number that I answered the phone different to normal they asked for me in my ex married name and I asked who they were and what they wanted and they said it was a personal matter and would call another number and put the phone down

 

I googled the number and saw it was mackenzie hall

 

Also they wrote to me (lovely letter when I got in! and the debt is something from years ago that my ex husband was meant to be paying (this is how all my trouble started my ex got us both into debt and stopped paying for things when I left him )

 

I am shaking here, I checked my house phone to see if they had rang but yet another company called Lowell had left a text saying to call them for a letter they also sent today and its an old old mobile phone bill (again from when I left my husband) for over nine years ago!!

 

I am in a state

 

What should I do about a) mackenzie hall and b) lowell or should I just ignore?

 

I worry that if I cca them both they will harrass me even more

 

also more interestingly bryan carter are chasing me on an old debt and are trying to get a cCj on me which I sent them paper work for earlier this week.. how have all these people got my details for old debts that are related to my ex??

BTW if the debts are your exs then you have no liability and need to report Bryan Carter as well to Trading Standards for trying to get you to admit to liability for another persons debt.

 

Somewhere along the line your ex has been connected with you at your current address and this link needs to be broken. Experian, Equifax and Callcredit will be directly behind all this..... you need to check your credit report and get the link broken.
