    • 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.

hi can anyone plz help

 

i had rossendales come to my address on 2 occations,

both times i was out.

 

the second time they came there was a letter posted, it was a levy with the details of my fathers car that was on the drive, it was signed by him (the bailiff) but not by myself as i was out.

 

they then came a third time, i was out again, another letter was posted saying that if the full payment of 630 was'nt payed in 24 hours then they would come and remove goods even in my absence, also on the second visit the amount owed was 380 and now it has reached 630

 

i cant afford to pay this in one sum as im unemployed and with children but they wont take any offer, "IT MUST BE IN FULL ITS TO LATE FOR AN PAYMENT PLANS" were his words, is this true?

 

many thanks in advance :)

If they have not been on your house then don't let them. keep all windows and doors locked at all times.

Do youself a repayment plan that you can afford .. adn send to the council concerned with a payment..

Ask the council how much you owe them on the liability order

 

You don't have to do business with the bailiffs and they know this all to well But you msut pay the council tax..

 

If you do a search on my posts I have many a time put lettter's in posts to sue as templates for both council ad bailiffs

write a letter to the council and the bailiff

tell them you are unemployed therefore classed as vulnerable ask the council to take payments for arrears out of your benefit

tell the bailiff that the car he has levied on is not yours tell them to do a dvla check to confirm this and they should remove the charges for this

bailiff charges should then be

1st visit fee £24.50 2nd visit fee £18

i just dont understand why the bill has suddenly gone up.

am i right in thinking that as i haven't signed anything and hadn't let them in they can't charge me for a van fee for the third visit?

All they can charge you for at the moment is for two visit fees and that's it.

You really need to get in contact with the council who are dealing with this and the bailiffs to ask for a break down of their charges. They have levied on something that does not belong to you.

these people can help you get something written as you are classed as vulnerable being on benefits etc

They can't charge you every Visit so just do as we have suggested and ignore them let them knock as long as they want if they haven't been into your house there is Sweet nothing they can do..

 

Dont take their word for what they are telling you ask on here forst before you do anything there is always someone to help you..

 

Just pay the council direct what you can afford but you do need to find out how much you owe the council NOT the bailiffs

will i still get hassle from bailiff during this prosess if i pay the council direct. and will they still charge me everytime they visit ?

 

thanks will send these asap

 

you will most probably get hassle from the bailiff until the council take it back but they can only charge you for 2 visits once the levy is removed the most your bailiff charges can be is £42.50

i never signed any levy, only the bailiff did. does this make it void?

 

the levy is void its not your property if you write e-mail the bailiff telling them to do a Dela check to confirm this

 

e-mail the council tell them you have informed the bailiff the car is not yours and any enforcement action the bailiff takes regarding the car the owner will hold the council jointly responsible

Well that's null and void then as your dad is NOT the debtor is he? so that's against the law...

 

we have suggested all that needs to be done I know you are probably worried but all of us here have been there and done that and now hopfuly here to help those that need us..

 

If they try to lift the car then you need to call the police as its not your's or post a copy of the ownership to the bailiff company also I would contac the council and tell them too that they have levied on something that is not your's...

 

Then send in your repayment plan with paymetn and stick to it so make sure you don't out do yourself with high payments you will know you can't afford..
