    • Ok i think we may have the issue, so its been just over 6 months since i was banned and when i defended the case and it should have been rescinded. I have just spoken to the courts, and they informed the DVLA that the ban should have been overturned. Now you need to reapply for your license when you have been banned, and they give a window of 45 days i believe after it has expired. The dates add up, what i think has happened is that my details have been removed from the system because i was banned for 6 months (when i shouldn't have been) and the additional days on top. If this is the case then i surely i can sue these idiots until the cows come home, i have been driving whilst banned (again when i shouldn't have been)  and this can affect my job, imagine i had been pulled over with my son in the car, they would have just arrested me and not listened to a word of my story.  
    • First thing to do is what the the DVLA website extract says - write to the Central Casework Group with full details of your licence, adding that you spoke to DVLA call centre xx/xx/xxxx and they told you they couldn't see the details either.  Get proof of posting. Are you in physical possession of your Driving Licence Photocard? And the card shows it is still current? If so include a photocopy of it when you write to DVLA. There's no reason for you to assume that the licence has been cancelled or that you have been banned. Just some IT problem at DVLA. I wouldn't go into all the stuff about your court case last year. There's no evidence that the current glitch in the DVLA system is anything to do with it and it will just muddy the waters.  Most comparision sites ask for your licence number. You can get quotes without the licence being checked but when you take up an insurer's quote they then check your licence number against the DVLA website to make sure it is valid and to check if any Points for motoring offences are recorded. If you are unable to access your licence details on DVLA then insurers won't be able to either so they will refuse to proceed and cancel their quote. 
    • How about posting the full email, rather than just the bits you want us to see??
    • Hi Folks,   Thank you for your help so far. Please find below the correspondence so far from various parties. If I've missed anything, please let me know. Again, apologies for not posting the correct stuff. I thought I'd lost it all, turns out it was on a rarely used pc Letter advising of change of address will be posted shortly, with proof of posting not tracked.

    • Thanks just looked at SARequest It wouldn’t make ebay have to say why they suspended me. all their email said was that it was related to buying activity. But under that bike buying activity there are about five different reasons why it could’ve been. But they haven’t specified which of these five reasons it was.

    • 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.

Re: Penalty Charges on Account / xxxxxxxxxxxx

WITHOUT PREJUDICE

 

Dear Ms Block,

 

Thankyou for your reply to my letter sent on the 9th February 2006 regarding penalty charges made to my Flexaccount.

 

I am well aware,you apply a fee for a transaction that causes an unauthorised overdraft,or takes an account over its agreed overdraft limit.However i feel that your charges are not levied in an ''appropriate and transparent manner'' as if you would care to read my first letter again, i requested that you send me a full and detailed breakdown of how charges are compiled.

 

I Qoute:

 

''I am aware that under your terms and conditions that charges are made to recover any losses that you may incur following a transaction made against an account without sufficient funds to cover the transaction. However if you would like to send me a detailed breakdown outlining how your estimates are made, It would be very appreciated. As I believe that these are not a pre-estimate but are punitive and represent a penalty for the process of money making, therefore are irrecoverable under common law. Further to the 1999 Consumer Credit Regulations quoted by the OFT there are numerous cases in law that prove punitive charges in contracts are unenforceable at English Law.''

 

 

I therefore insist that you refund these charges totaling a sum of xxxxx [xxxx.xx] within 14 days from receipt of this letter. If you decide to decline my offer of settlement, I will start proceedings for recovery through the county courts where I will also be seeking costs and interest at 8% as allowed by the County Courts Act [1984].I have enclosed a detailed account of interest calculated to the date of this letter, currently totalling xxxxxx.[xx.xx].This sum, as i am sure you are aware will increase up untill my county court claim is submitted.Thus bringing the total claim being in excess of xxxx[xxxxxxxxxx]including costs.

 

If you once again decline my offer of settlement, i will proceed with my County Court claim on the 15th day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yours Faithfully,
