    • Thank you very much for your letter in regard to the above mentioned shipment.  Due to the high volume of parcels coursing through the courier network each day, undergoing continuous processing and handling, certain packages may experience delays or even can get lost in the course of this journey. Please note that due to the time that has passed, this shipment has been declared as lost.  I have today processed the claim and made offers to the value of £75 as a goodwill gesture without prejudice. I do acknowledge that you have mentioned in your letter that the value was higher, however, you did not take out any protection to that amount. The protection for this shipment was £20 and we will not be increasing our goodwill offer any further.    Please log into your account online in order to accept our offer. Once accepted, our accounts department will process the claim accordingly. The claim payment will be processed and received within 7 working days.                                  In addition, a refund of the carriage fee will be processed as a separate payment and will be received within 3 working days.  If I can further assist, please feel free to contact me.   I have also just noticed that yesterday afternoon they sent me an email stating that "after my request" they have refunded the cost of shipping. I did not request the refund so will mention that in my letter as well.
    • Hi I had to leave Dubai back in 2011, during the financial crisis. And only now have I received a letter from IDRWW. Is this anything to worry about about as I have 2 years left until it’s been 15 years(statute barred in Dubai). Worried as just got a mortgage 2 years ago. Could they force me in to bankruptcy? Red lots of different threads on here. And unsure what true and what isn’t. 
    • Not that TOR will see this now he's thrown in the hand grenade. Rayner has plenty of female supporters on X, for a start. As for the council and HMRC, fair enough and I thought Rayner was already in touch with them.

    • Often with the Likes of Lowells/ Overdales that 'proof' doesn't stand up to scrutiny.   Think about it like a game of poker, they want to intimidate you into folding and giving up as soon as possible, and just get you to pay up and roll over, that is their business model, make you think your cards are rubbish. What they don't expect, and their business isn't set up for it, is for a defendant to find this place and to learn that they have an amazing set of cards to play. Overdales don't have an infinite number of lawyers, paralegals etc, and the time / money to spend on expensive court cases, that they are highly likely to lose, hence how hard they will try to get you to roll over.  Even to the extent of faking documents, which they need to do because the debts that they purchased were so cheap, in the first place. Nevertheless it works in most cases, most people chicken out, when they are so close to winning, and a holding defence is like slowly showing Overdales your first card, and a marker of intention that this could get tricky for them. In fact it may be,  although by no means guaranteed that it won't even go any further than that.  Even if it does, what they send you back will almost certainly have more holes than Swiss Cheese, and if with the help you receive here, you can identify those weaknesses and get the whole thing tossed in the bin.

    • 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.

I think they are likely to be equally awkward frankly. You could send them a revised prelim stating that now you have the current account details you want both lots back, give them 10 days and then LBA.

Latest update.Recieved a letter yesterday from Mr McKirdy,saying he is going to reopen our complaint and bring it to a speedy conclusion ,but it could take 28 days.I presume this is a load of bull and if we wait the 28 days we will hear nothing? the letter does not make any ref to an account number,but judging by the date he mentions,I presume it is for the cuurent acc (the big claim).No mention of the Visa account ( the LBA expires on tuesday).I was going to wait until next weekend and then file a money claim.But my question is, can I include both accounts on the one claim.Or does it have to be done separately,seeing as it is two different addresses,ie local branch for curr acc and the Leeds address for the Visa acc.I want to get this right as I dont want to give them any excuse to try and get the claim thrown out at a later date.Any advice will be most welcome

Also g/f got latest statement today showing £25 charges to be added next month.The reason? she went 1p over her o/d limit for 1 day:mad: Would it be wise to write and ask for this charge to be waived or or ask for a breakdown of costs to determine how it is costing them £25 to cover 1p over a period of 1 day or forget it and and make a new claim later? I cant add it to current claim as we are already at the six year point.It seems they never learn,this has made us determined to take them all the way

You can put both claims together if they are in the same name and against the same organisation, and you can add on charges as they occur. Presumably you mean that you went back 6 years when you started, which is fine, but you can add new charges on at least until you complete your allocation questionnaire, or you could ask for them up to the date you settle which will inevitably happen.

Ok. Lba deadline passed for both accounts,I have done the calculations again and added interest.I have just issued the MCOL. Do i now have to send the bank the updated details of the claim with the interest added? and do I have to send one to the court.:)

Normally it would be 2 to the court, one of those being for the bank, but given the present silliness over threats to strike out due to lack of details, send YB one too. I would still send 2 to the court to be on the safe side though.

Ok thanks Caro.So correct me if I am wrong.I can now send YB the updated schedule of charges including interest, to the address I put on MCOL and then I wait to hear from the court to send them the new schedule of scarges (i dont have an address for the court yet) presumably at the AQ stage:confused:

I did it at the AQ stage and it didn't seem to be a problem as I believe the case is not considered until after that.

Today we received a letter from Ms Ross stating that as we have not provided the bank with a detailed schedule of the charges we are claiming back,she will aplly to the court to have our claim struck out if we do not provide these by 25/10/06.Have sent these today to the legal dept and a copy to head office in Leeds pointing out that this is the third time I have sent a schedule of charges to them and after taking legal advice have now added 8% interest to the claim.The bloody cheek of these people

Hi Jules

Had a look at your thread and I must say i find it is unbelieveable the depths they will stoop to, lies and more lies then sorry we made a mistake:o Still I suppose it will make people even more determined to take things to the bitter end,but they dont seem to comprehend this:mad:

I wouldn't bother sending a copy of Miss Ross's letter at this stage. Just keep it with your other letters ready for your bundle of paperwork for the court if you ever need it. No doubt Miss R will write to the court if she wants to herself, and the court will know that you have sent a schedule so let her waste her time and not yours.
