      HMRC seek repayment after Fast Tax Rebates Ltd take most of rebate

      By honeybee13 · Posted

      Hi Schipoo and thank you for the update.   Excellent news for you and a huge relief, I imagine. You might like to start a new thread about Independent Tax if you want advice on that problem. HB

      HMRC seek repayment after Fast Tax Rebates Ltd take most of rebate

      By Schipoo · Posted

      Hi everyone, I have an update on my case that I’d like to share with you all.  so after submitting 371 pages in my bundle, a witness statement and skeleton argument for my court case due to take place in Manchester on June 21st I got an email from my litigator stating that hmrc have pulled out and the case is now closed!    this is the body of the letter….. This letter, which is copied to the Appellant, pursuant to Rule 17 of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Tax Chamber) Rules 2009, the Respondents gives notice to the Tribunal of their intention to not defend the above appeal.   The Respondents respectfully invite the Tribunal to allow the appeal and close its file. In lieu of the above the Respondents would respectfully ask the Tribunal to vacate the hearing scheduled for Friday 21 June 2024. We would accordingly invite the Tribunal to close its file. Obviously this is extremely good news which hasn’t sunk in that after 3 years of fighting it is over.    I do have a further fight on my hands in that the Group Action I had joined with Independent Tax that had been disbanded in November last year and I chose not to continue with them. They are trying to bill me over 5k for the work they did under that Group Action which is ludicrous bearing in mind the whole point in joining was that it would keep the cost to a minimum as it would be shared between us all. They had asked if I wanted to continue to have them represent me on an individual level which I declined, if I hadn’t, goodness knows what they would have been trying to charge me now.

      Should we trust Sunak or the next PM to fix the Country's problems? (title revised 24/10/22)

      By stu007 · Posted

      As PM Sunak really showed his true colours at the D Day Commemorations by doing what? Oh I am the British PM lets just leave early I have better things to do and as he is called out on disrespecting all those veterans that served our country for the freedoms we have today he gives a groveling apology to little to late. He knew about this event for a long time and also knew that this is probably the last D Day Commemoration due to the age of those Veterans who gave so much for there countries freedom. Even on the day of the D Day Commemoration he still could have changed his plans As PM and stayed but choose not to showing such DISRESPECT to those Veterans, those that lost there lives and Families for the Freedoms we have today Being a Veteran myself I have never known a PM to show such disrespect what the hell was he thinking SHAME ON YOU PM SUNAK

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

Reading through the bits, does this mean that if I am filing for bankruptcy, they cant put this order on me?

 

I can have documents to prove that I paid nothing toward the deposit, my partner ownes 95% of the property so, can they still go through with this if my share is minimal and wont cover the debt?

It depends on which order gets made first, why are you petitioning for bankruptcy?

The order will be placed on your legal share of the property.

Is there any way I can avoid this?

 

What if I offered them a monthly repayment scheme, would that stop the action?

 

As we stand, they havent contacted me to ask for any repayment at all, just gone straight for the property

You say you lost to Egg and there followed a court order. Therefore the case you lost was a County Court Claim and there would have been documents sent to you from the court, do you still have those original documents from when you defended the claim?

I understand it's in the pipeline, or already law, that Orders for Sale cannot be made for debts less than £25,000.

(Has this come in yet, Sequenci?)

Not yet and i REALLY hope it doesn't either. If it did, creditors would simply bankrupt everyone instead. Much worse an option!

Does it say why your defence was struck out?

 

What evidence do you have for to 95/5 split in equity of the property?

Sadly it doesnt give any reason as to why the defence was struck out

 

We have no eveidence of the split except that my pertenr paid the full deposit and has been paying the mortage on her own for the last two years while ive not been earning.

 

What are the chances of success if I offer them a monthly payment plan to repay the amount in full over 60 months? Will this usually surfice and, if it would, do you have any coppies of letters I can send please?

 

Also, my pertner need to write and ask them to stop with the order as its nothing to do with her, whats the best approach and is it likelyt to prevent the order?

 

 

Just wondered if anyone had any advice on this please?

 

It almost seems that they now have everything?

 

How do I appeal, how can they take the property if I only own 10% and, it sounds like there has already been a hearing, of which I knew nothing about, and might be another one to seal the deal.

 

How do i find out these details and, any advice on being represented please?

 

Please help...............................

You need to try and have the judgment set aside on the basis that you were not served with the claim form and then try to defend the case. Setting aside turns back the judgment to the beginning and allows you to defend it and therefore mot allow the charging order.

 

Have a look around, there are plenty of threads telling you how to apply to set aside a judgment. Ask for the hearing to be heard at the same time as the charging order one. http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/legal-issues/203298-guide-charging-orders-orders.html

 

Without any proof the property is deemed to be held 50/50 regardless of who pays what towards the mortgage.

 

Your wife can try to argue it but it will be difficult for her to convince the judge I'm afraid, but the charging order is only made against your share of the property, not your wife's.

There must have been a defence for it to have been struck out?

You're right, sorry it was late and I forgot about the defence. Feel free to ignore that last post.

 

That changes the game alot and the outlook would appear pretty bad for preventing the charging order, sorry.

 

Turn up and throw everything you can at them from the 1st post in this thread

Hi again

 

Does anyone have any advice on a letter to the land registry re stopping the charging order on the property please?

 

 

I've never known of the Land Registry refusing a C/O on the basis of a letter from the co-owner of the property sorry. As far as the Land Registry is concerned there is a valid, enforceable judgment in place right now.

 

I'm sorry not to be more helpful, hopefully someone else can help...

The other thing is, if they do this, will it still be acruing interest until it becomes the full value of our home and they take it away?

 

Please please help

 

LB

 

Interest only accrues after judgement if the judge awarded it. If so it will say on your judgement paperwork from the court. You only mention that they were awarded a total of balance and costs?.

 

You should also get notification prior to the final CO order hearing date, where you will get a chance to defend.

 

Forced sale is not legally impossible but very unlikely particularly when your property is jointly owned but the judgement is in your name only.

 

As for the restricting effects on CO's/restirctions on the future sale of your home,there was a thread on here recently about this with a link to this subject on another well known forum run by ML. Can't post a link but you may find it using a search of 'Charging Order? The myth '. Don't know how legally correct it is but makes for interesting reading.

 

Good Luck

Hi again

 

Well, Ive received a letter today telling me that there has been a court date set when the court will decide whether or not the charging order should continue in force and become final.

 

Pardon my ignorance but, does this mean that when the court hearing takes place, they decide there and then if my home is to be sold?

 

Please help, I'm petrified and need any advice possible please

Hi Large Boy,

As far as I'm aware it simply means that the Charging Order is finalised.

This simply means that if you ever sell the house they get what they're owed from the proceeds.

They can only force the sale on reapplication to the Court, if you fail to keep to the payment arrangements.

Hope this eases your mind a little.
