    • Well we can't predict what the judge will believe. PE will say that they responded in the deadline and you will say they don't. Nobody can tell what a random DJ will decide. However if you go for an OOC settlement you should still be able to get some money
    • What do you guys think the chances are for her?   She followed the law, they didnt, then they engage in deception, would the judge take kindly to being lied to by these clowns? If we have a case then we should proceed and not allow these blatant dishonest cheaters to succeed 
    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • 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.

The tribunal judge has order that we have to agree a bundle of no more than xx pages. At present the bundle stands at xx + 150 pages so we have to get rid of 150 pages.

 

I dont know what they will be using yet but once a date has been set i will speak to the other side and we need to mutually agree a bundle of xx pages as ordered by the judge.

 

I believe the reason they have listed all these documents is an attempt to overwhelm me and may even be considered as an attempt to get me to withdraw the claim, Around 25 pages that they have listed have no relevance what so ever to the case and were simply put in as "they may be used if we decide we want to take the case a particular way"

 

I am simply binding my time to get a date set, once we have a date i can then start to whittle of the rubbish from their list and i would assume that they will try to do the same to my list etc.

Unusual or not the i do not know, this is my first case. The Case Management Order that was given right at the very begining clearly states it must be under xx pages long so thats what im working towards. Each further letter received from the ET also clearly state that the original letter still stands and that only dates have changed etc.

 

I am aware that myself and the other side can jointly request the limit to be changed but i see no reason for this, if they remove the non relevant parts and stick to what was raised in the ET1 and ET3 then the case can easily come in under the number of pages ordered. They appear to me mentioning things that were never addressed in either the Disciplinary or Appeal and also things that were not mentioned in the ET1 and ET3. The reasons for this at present are unknown.

 

While you state you had over 100 pages what were you originally ordered to be under, i believe that the ET judges address this on a case by case basis, also bear in mind that during the Disciplinary and Appeal process no evidence was ever released so no evidence was taken into account when making the decision to dismiss. There is no mention of half the evidence they have now released at any point during the Disciplinary or Appeal process so im not sure how they can convince me or the ET that it is relevant or that it was used to make the decision to dismiss.

Hi,

 

You say that no evidence was ever released to you, but in post #7 you say you was shown cctv and screen shots ? this is surely evidence ?

 

you have also been supplied minutes of the meetings, again this is evidence ?

 

also in post 26 you submitted a statement from your oh , this is again evidence ?

 

Regards

The CCTV was in relation to allegation 1-3 which are not being discussed at the ET as i was cleared of any wrong doing this is confirmed in my ET1 and other sides ET3. It was not CCTV as such it was screenshots/still images of CCTV but all relating to allegations 1-3.

 

The only thing that will be dicussed at the ET is allegation 4 to which no evidence was released until recently.

 

Statement from OH is evidence but it was not discussed at any point during any meeting, company just stated they didn't believe it and moved on, and also thats on my list not theirs.

 

I had a hand written copy of the minutes from which was unreadable, I have only recently recieved the typed copy. Again the Minutes are not on other sides list of documents but they are on mine.

Hi,

 

Was the handwritten notes that were unreadable signed by you ? Yes on the understanding a typed copy would follow which i recieved last month.

 

If they are the company does not have to supply a typed up version.

 

Regards

 

You have already mentioned this before, i have both handwritten and typed minutes from all meetings now.

I cant have new evidence as everything i will be using has been released to the company.

 

The evidence i have may shock the company, and the line i am taking wil show the company to be incompetant to say the least.

 

TBH the company have done me a massive favour as none of their own evidence is very good/solid, their own evidence is disproved my other parts of their own evidence and each bit of evidence contradicts another piece of evidence of theirs.

 

The witness statements they have provided from staff members do not tie in with the CCTV they provided us with, Staff claim certains things happened and CCTV proves it did not, Other things they claim did not happen CCTV proves it did etc.

Yes i have several examples but im not going to go into details about that on an open forum. There is no need to, The camera never lies as they say.

 

The code incident is the only incident outstanding, all other allegations were upheld in my favour at appeal due to insufficient evidence to prove any wrong doing.

Who knows ???

 

At this moment in time i have no need to go into detail on a public forum the ins and outs on how i will conduct my case and go into detail as to how the other side will slip up.

 

I have no date for a hearing as of yet, possibly nearer the time if i need further assistance and have to go into detail about certain issues i will but atm there is no need and no hearing planned for quite some time i would imagine.

I already have a list of what they are intending to use.

 

I have only stated facts and facts that i can prove 100%, the company on the other hand have bent the thruth to fit their version of events and by doing so have contradicted their some of their own evidence.

Hi

 

Still no date as of yet, as i said before i would imagine it will take time etc, i will chase tribunal next month if i still haven't heard anything by then.

 

There is no evidence gathering to do, as i have already stated we exchanged a list of documents we are going to use last month or even the month before so nothing new can be added, we have a list that we can use and if anything we need to slim this down and not add to it.

Thats for them to to decide, i would have thought that they have already paid more in costs than what the claim is for.

Why would they want it in the next month ? i wouldn't have thought they can dictate when they have the case, If the court was available then it would have been scheduled by now, that fact it hasn't means either they are requesting delays or the court is busy surely ?

 

It would be nice for it to be over ASAP but this has been ongoing for a while so a little longer makes no differance to me, I know what they have got and what they want to use and nowhere does it show any wrong doing apart from the company not following there own procedures and there own evidence contradicts other evidence they want to use.

 

I will find out soon enough when the case will begin and once we have a date i can discuss what is and is not going into the court bundle as atm we have far too much according to the orders given by the judge.

Hi

 

Can't go into detail but yes im very happy with the outcome and feel i got a better deal than i would have if it had gone to hearing etc.

 

It has also saved a lot of stress etc and i would have no doubt started to worry about the hearing the nearer it got.
