    • His financial situation isn’t great, and the landlord has made lots of things up. The things he’s put isn’t true at all. My friend did tell the full truth with incoming and outgoing, I helped him fill in his form and he checked bills etc. to make sure it was right. His wage is ok, but not as good as the landlord thinks it is,  and he doesn’t have anything spare. How much are they likely to take from him? Should he send any reply?  the letter just says to take the court letter with him. 
    • Hi and thanks It looks like they ticked all the boxes to me but I'll try and upload the notice. I was wondering if a witness to late delivery might be considered proof - I'm assuming they posted it as normal but Royal Mail stuffed up delivery. If not then they're really saying it just has to be posted within 12 days of the incident, regardless of when it is received. Annoying! pcn front.pdf pcn back page.pdf
    • Hi welcome to the Forum.  If a PCN is sent out late ie after the 12th day of the alleged offence, the charge cannot then be transferred from the driver to the keeper.T he PCN is deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch so in your case, unless you can prove that Nexus sent the PCN several days after they claim you have very little chance of winning that argument. All is not lost since the majority of PCNs sent out are very poorly worded so that yet again the keeper is not liable to pay the charge, only the driver is now liable. If you post up the PCN, front and back we will be able to confirm whether it is compliant or not. Even if it is ok, there are lots of other reasons why it is not necessary to pay those rogues. 
    • Hi 1 Date of the infringement  arr 28/03/24 21:00, dep 29/03/24 01.27 2 Date on the NTK  08/04/2024 (Date of Issue) 3 Date received Monday 15/04/24 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012?  Yes 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No  7 Who is the parking company? GroupNexus 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Petrol Station Roadchef Tibshelf South DE55 5T 'operating in accordance with the BPA's Code of Practice' I received a Parking Charge letter to keeper on Monday 15/04/24, the 17th day after the alleged incident. My understanding is that this is outside the window for notifying. The issue date was 08/04/2024 which should have been in good time for it to have arrived within the notice period but in fact it actually arrived at lunchtime on the 15th. Do I have to prove when it arrived  (and if so how can I do that?) or is the onus on them to prove it was delivered in time? All I can find is that delivery is assumed to be on the second working day after issue which would have been Weds 10//04/24 but it was actually delivered 5 days later than that (thank you Royal Mail!). My husband was present when it arrived - is a family member witness considered sufficient proof?

    • 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.

Hello, I just wanted to say how helpful this site has been.

But, I have a minor issue.

 

Here goes.

I owe Natwest some money and before I could go to them and work out a repayment plan, they referred me to a debt collection agency (Triton) so the first thing I did was request the credit agreement between the 2 companies using the cca. I got a template of the letter from here.

After a while, I got a letter but from another company. This time Apex and I send them the same thing. They replied back saying I have to request the agreement from the principle company with whom the agreement was reached which is RBS?...I got confused because I do not have anything links with RBS. So I was wondering if someone could explain what that means?

 

 

Second, I also owe Orange some money, but not much at all and like with Natwest before I could pay them back they referred me to an agency, I followed the same procedures and they replied with a notice of intended litigation saying that if I do not pay within a certain time they will take legal action against me and also stated that I must pay them back almost immediately to prevent this. It is almost like they ignored me?

 

Can anyone give an insight into this matter..

Much appreciated :)

Hi jakemittle and welcome to CAG, in my experience the CCA is sent to the company who are chasing the debt and it is there responsibility to contact the original lender, however that is probably where the debt has been sold, in your case perhaps the DCAs are collecting on behalf of the lender and that you do need to send CCA request fo the original lender. In the case of RBS are you saying that you do not recall ever having a credit card or loan with them ?.

Well, I do not have an account with RBS. Only with Natwest?

If I need to send the CCA request to the original lender, I would have to send it to Natwest, of course. This is why I dont know where RBS fits into this situation?

In that case i would send the CCA request to Natwest.

 

Done.

How about with Orange?...How do I resolve that? Im sure the letter is a scare-tactic. But should I give them a couple more days or do I reply for a second time requesting a CCA? Or, do I just send it to Orange?

 

 

Oh and thanks for the welcome and for replying :D

Hi, jakemittle.

 

All sounds a bit confusing.

 

If you do not know the debt Apex refer to send them the 'Prove it' letter.

Regarding the Orange debt, the CCA does not cover mobile phone contracts.....

What was the Natwest debt ?

You say the amount owing to Orange is a small amount, and yes they are by way of a standard letter scaremongering, contact them by letter explaining that you can not afford to pay in one lump sum and make a repayment offer.

Well, I only have a debt with Natwest and Orange. No other, and like I said before I do not have any connection with RBS whatsoever. So this is why I am slightly confused. I will send a letter to Natwest asking them whats going on. In the mean-time do I just send apex the "prove it" letter?

The Natwest debt is £1,007

 

You say the amount owing to Orange is a small amount, and yes they are by way of a standard letter scaremongering, contact them by letter explaining that you can not afford to pay in one lump sum and make a repayment offer.

 

Right, but who do I send the letter to?..Orange or this debt agency?

And I owe them £277 which I can pay in full next month..but they are demanding it now :S...I am able to send a letter, but I dont know who to..

An update: Apex have now referred me to a solicitors asking for payment within 7 days or reason for non-payment despite the fact that they couldn't provide me with a CCA and instead referred me to RBS (who I have no connection to)

So this situation is making me even more confused..

Any insight on what I can do?

Thanks, so concerning Apex, itself, I plan to write a letter explaining where RBS comes in.

I plan on going to Natwest and speaking to them about this.

 

Is this the best course of action to take?
