    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.   
    • luckily like this thread VCS/DCB(L) PCN spycar capture - PAPLOC Now claimform - no Stopping in Restricted Zone - Bristol Airport ***Claim Dismissed*** - Page 4 - Private Land Parking Enforcement - Consumer Action Group although no on the crossing, same applies to you so WS time. there are numerous threads here on pedestrian crossing claimforms by VCS at Bristol and at other airports so use our enhanced google searchbox and find them. really a bad idea to vanish for SIX months and not been have reading up here.....................  
    • Not at all.  The onus is on them to ensure that their invoice respects the provisions of Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 to establish keeper liability.  Which it can't as the area is covered by bye-laws. Spot on. Irrelevant as to whether you entered into a contract with VCS to pay them £100 if you didn't obey what was written on their silly signs. Who cares?  What about their ridiculous generic Particulars of Claim where they deliberately mix up driver and keeper. And where do they mention this?  You haven't shown us anything. Of course you have to prepare a Witness Statement and you'd better get on with it. This is the problem here - you've disappeared for months & months, haven't kept us updated and presumably haven't read other VCS threads.  That needs to change - now. Otherwise you will lose - simple as that. For a start - please upload the court order which fixes the hearing date plus plus where "VCS mentioned my initial defence was generic and clearly copied from the internet".  We're not mind readers.

    • 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.

Would you like me to explain how to calculate the 8% interest on your charges. The spreadsheets available on this site should do this for you, but I can explain how it is calculated if you wan't.

Try this spreadsheet, it is a bit more advanced but I used it and found it very good. http://www.cag-files.co.uk/barracad/Spreadsheets/England/Complex-bank-charges-calc.xls

 

If you have all of your statements with charges you just enter the info requested and the spreadsheet does the rest. It also allows you to enter charges and interest due to those charges which you send with your LBA, and seperatly applies the 8% interest which you apply when you file your N1 and claim. So you only have to enter all the data once. Have a look at it and just ask if you need any help.

If you want to calculate the 8% interest yourself then ;

 

8%/100% = 0.08 0.08/365 days= 0.00022 this is the daily rate of interest.

 

So if you are owed £1000 1000x0.00022=0.22 or 22p per day

 

You need to apply this to each charge ie ;

 

a £20 charge 6 years ago would have accumalated 8% interest as

Hi Bish thanks for the replies,...Do not want to sound thick but are confused now ,Is they a simple way of working this out,(Working out each charge seperately for the whole 6 years?),...Kia no wonder you are fed up,..

Recieved a letter from the bank today saying" Charges are lawful blahh blahh and the 5 refunded charges are a goodwill gesture,..Even more keen to get this spread sheet sorted out,Doing this right now,.Any input please feel free Mx.

20 x 0.0002 = 0.0044 x 2190 days since charge applied or paid = 9.636 = £9.64

 

So you would have to carry out this calculation for every charge applied. Much better to use the spreadsheet which has this built in. Sorry about the break, computer crashed, thats technology for you. Hope this helps.

I did the N1 claim and took it to court myself, so much more satisfying. Plus you get the court staff to give it the once over and make sure you have not made a mistake. I made two mistakes so worth doing the N1 claim. My claim is for over £8000 so had a large schedule of charges to go with it. If your claim is small it may be worth using the moneyclaim route. You realy do need to use one of the spreadsheets available on this site to calculate the interest for your claim, if you have a lot of charges over the last six years. Best wishes and good luck. If you need any help just ask.

Morning Gang,....Well BIG surprise,Abbey have sent me my full 6 years worth of charges,...Think this is another new ploy off the abbey,..As my claim was due to be in friday gone as that was the time table,..Maybe their send these to mess us around ,As we would have to amend the claim plus the costs,..Well their say they is a reason for everything,..Glad I held off with the claim for a extra few days,..Seems to be better than a estimated claim,..Will be able to do this online now as I can actually put the correct charges without the need to have a large estimated schedule,..Will have a good read over now as I am having a day off work to sort this out with the spreadsheet and things,..Good start anyway,..Mx.
