He was quick to trash Sunak - but at least sunak showed his face heh?   Sunak perhaps needs to slip some dosh to led by donkeys to fund some banners in Clacton heh?

    • Yep let us have a good laugh eh from today’s Telegraph 🤣😂🤣 the rest must try harder    Farage won Friday’s election debate, a poll finds Nigel Farage won Friday night’s seven-way BBC election debate, according to a poll.  A snap poll of 1,031 voters by More in Common found most thought Mr Farage won the debate, followed by Angela Rayner. Mr Farage received 25 per cent of the vote while Ms Rayner received 19 per cent. The Green Party’s Carla Denyer was the third most popular with 11 per cent, Stephen Flynn for SNP received 10 per cent and Penny Mordaunt, the leader of the House of Commons, took 7 per cent of the vote. Daisy Cooper, the deputy leader of the Liberal Democrats and Plaid Cymru’s Rhun ap Iorwerth took 5 per cent and 2  per cent respectively. The debate saw Britain’s main seven political parties clash ahead of the general election on July 4.  Mr Farage, who returned to frontline politics for Reform this week and is standing as an MP in Clacton, challenged his political rivals on immigration and net zero policies.
    • Hi CAG Team, I'm seeking your skills and help for a NtK my partner received through the post earlier this week. To give a little backstory, my partner and I, along with our young children (4 and 7), decided to go on a camping holiday about 3 hours away from us. We took a car each because we didn't have enough room in one car. We arrived at the services at very similar times as we followed each other the whole way. So, two cars. My partner has received this NtK, but I haven't. This NtK dropped through the front door on Wednesday, June 5, 2024.  We both parked in the Burger King car park, not in BP; we got out, all went for a toilet break, got some food from the BP garage and returned to our cars to eat.  After eating, we took the kids to the toilet again before leaving to complete our journey. I didn't notice any parking restriction signs and can't get back to the location due to how far away it is. I noticed another person had an issue here and reported it to you, and they managed to get the charge dropped. See below. To me, it looks like they have cameras at the complex's entrance and exit. I'm not sure if they own the land/car park by Burger King, I'm not sure if this is a legal contract or not.  I find that 30 mins limit at a Services that serves hot food to be ridiculous and unfair, especially as we had kids to feed and water.  And the fact that I didn't receive the same NtK despite us driving in and out together is just crazy. This is the location - I also uploaded a map image. Google Maps MAPS.APP.GOO.GL ★★★☆☆ · Restaurant 1 Date of the infringement 24th May 2024 2 Date on the NTK [this must have been received within 14 days from the 'offence' date] 29th May 2024 3 Date received 5th June 2024 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012? [Y/N?] N 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Y - Only entering and exiting the complex/land. 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] N 7 Who is the parking company? MET 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] BP Blue Boys, Tonbridge TN12 7HE For either option, does it say which appeals body they operate under. POPLA I hope you can help me out with some guidance on how to proceed with this. Let me know if you need anything else. Thank you, Passerby0233 2024-06-08 13_17_52-Burger King - Google Maps — Mozilla Firefox.pdf NtK_29-05-2024.compressed.pdf

    • 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 all,

I rang HSBC to find out where I should sent my Preliminary approach for repayment (spoke to a young lady who obviously flunked out of charm school who advised me again that they would not refund the charges imposed on my account). I was given an email address, [email protected], so I cut and paste my letter into that. She did not offer me a formal address to write to.

 

Have I screwed up my initial attempt to get my money back by emailing rather than writing a letter?

 

Help please - new to all this but sick of being broke thanks to bank charges!!!

Thanks Sarey331 - did you sent your LBA via email?

I wasn't going to bother complaining about the fact that they have taken £200 in the last two months in overdraft charges but due to their snotty attitude I want revenge (and my money back) for the total charges on my account.

Did they put up a struggle with you or refund peacefully?

they virtually ignored me until about a week after lba then offerd me about 90% settlement. im accepting because that money would be more useful now in the summer holidays, and its not a bad return for a few emails!

 

they acknowledged my emails, and the thing that got on my nerves is they have to forward everything but dont let that put you off your schedule though,id advise you to give them the 14 days and then press on. they dont give us extra time in case we are having admin difficulties do they.

read my thread if you get a minute as there are comments from others on there that you might find helpful, i know i did :D

Hi, I requested my statements by phone 69 days ago,( and paid the £10 ) despite several reminders I'm still waiting! should I start the process again by letter? Deni.

 

Hi Deni,

I am new to all this but I would think that they have had more than enough time. If you paid the £10 via telephone banking you will have the date on your account which is the date that the process started.

I would post a thread of your own asking others with more experience their help as they all seem so up on how this all works.

GOOD LUCK!

Karen

Hello Everyone, Just joined today, I'm going to email HSBC too, I've gone through my statements on the internet banking. I reckon i'm owed £370, shall I put this in the email?

 

I would use the Preliminary Letter: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/671-letter-preliminary-approach-repayment.html

 

and include the total sum in there. I deleted the part that spoke of additional schedules. Make sure you give your name, address as well as your account details as another poster has informed me that they can use delaying tactics if you don't!!! Make sure you keep a copy in your sent items or you will not have anything if it does go to court.

GOOD LUCK.

Karen

They do have a messages function on the online banking facility

i did once send them a message i think but i never received a coherent response - only spam about more of their hsbc ripoff 'offers'...

 

i reckon you'd probably be within your rights to conduct your correspondence through their website though... after all they provide that function for us their long-suffering customers,

 

i did my claim the old fashioned way - dropping off letters by hand and getting a stamped photocopy as a receipt, if precedent for doing it this way can be established then that will surely make it easier for future claimants :)

My Thread: HSBC Glee!!!!
