    • I googled "prescribed disability" to see where it is defined for the purposes of S.92. I found HMRC's definition, which included deafness. I don't  think anyone is saying deaf people cant drive, though! digging deeper,  Is it that “prescribed disability” (for the purposes of S.88 and S.92) is defined at: The Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1999 WWW.LEGISLATION.GOV.UK These Regulations consolidate with amendments the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1996...   ….. and sleep apnoea / increased daytime sleepiness is NOT included there directly as a condition but only becomes prescribed under “liability to sudden attacks of disabling giddiness or fainting” (but falling asleep isn't fainting!), so it isn’t defined there as a “prescribed disability”  Yet, under S.92(2)(b) RTA 1988 “ any other disability likely to cause the driving of a vehicle by him in pursuance of a licence to be a source of danger to the public" So (IMHO) sleep apnea / daytime sleepiness MIGHT be a prescribed disability, but only if it causes likelihood of "driving being a source of danger to the public" : which is where meeting / not meeting the medical standard of fitness to drive comes into play?  
    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.

    • 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 I put in a claim for my bank charges quite some time ago now and was quickly recieved a reply stating that due to the ongoing court case that it would have to be put on holdwhich i had no problem with.

 

I then recieved a county court claim letter stating that it would be going after me in the county courts for the the sum of money which it says i owe them i snet back all the documents as required filling out as my defence that the amount was subject of a claim for bank charges and that i did not understand why this was being bought before the court as the case was still ongoing.

 

got a letter bacjk from the court stating that my defence was correct and that it would be put on hold till the casse with the oft was finished.

 

his morning i have recieved a letter from the solicitors of the banks debt collection agency with regards to the claim it reads as follows:

 

we refer to the matter ,in particlular to your defence which you have filed in relation to charges being applied to your account.

 

Please find enclosed a Statement of Account as provided by our clients predecessor HSBC Bank Limited.

 

In an effort to bring this matter to a satisfactory conclusion, we can confirm that our client is prepared to accept repayment of the outstanding debt by way of a consent order.

 

We can confirm that a Consent Order is an agreement without a county court judgment being made between the Claimant and yourself , therefore , there will be no public information registered against you upon the county court register in respect of this claim

 

here fore we request that you contact the above office to discuss repayment of the outsatnding balance.

 

We trust that this now clarifies this matter.

 

Yours sincerely

 

un signed

This is very abusive and unfair. They have placed your claim on hold and then go and start their own claim against you.

 

As RMW has asked, what are the level of charges and how much are they claiming from you.

Can you post their POC for us to see

OK. If you handle this correctly, it might not be too bad.

 

Firstly, you've been registered on this forum and you don't know what POC stands for. You need to start doing some seriosu reading of this forum so that you know your way around and you understand the procedures you will be employing.

 

Have you put in an SAR? If so when? When did you come up wih the figure of £1700 for charges? Are you sure that it si fully calulated. Have you taken in to account all of the interest they have charged you on this? Have you included overdraft interest on this?

 

We need to see a scanned copy of your POC and your defence. take out identifiers but leave in dates and ammounts

as i stated i im no good with acronyms if you had said particulars of claim i would have known

right i followed all the advise as to how to claim bank charges back from this forum.

I dint need a copy of my bank statements as HSBC are kind enough to make them available online whilst you have an open account.

 

I used the complex bank charges Calc and i will try and include a copy here

Are you in a position now to calculate all of the extra charges?

 

Have you read through at least the first post of this?

Is the oldest charge they told you about the one from 2005?

 

If you have had your account for longer than that, I am sure there will be have been more charges applied before 2005 and you can reclaim these as well. This is why a SAR would have been useful.

the reason the oldest charge is only 2005 is because that is when they first made a charge against the account i didnt go back any further because before then we had had no other charges levied against us

Your interest calculations are wrong to the point of being generous.

 

eg: On your last charge dated 13/7/07, interest accrued @ 16.92% is £73.25 to today's date.

sorry i dont follow you the figures on that sheet all come from the date it was sent which was july 2007.

I expect that noomill060 knows that he/she is doing. I don't understand the calculations but I do understand the principles very well.

 

I have realised that most people don't understand how much they have lost to the bank.

 

You need to take a hard look at this - but not for too long

Calculate everything. Make sure that you are claiming back any interest on your overdraft too.

 

Let us kow what the figure is.

 

Set about amending your pleadings.

 

Make a complaint to TS that HC are abusing the court process and the terms of the stay. send the same complaint to the OFT.

 

Write to HC and tell them that they are abusing the court process by having a stay and then continuing to chase and threaten litigation on the same issue. tell them that you have complained about them to the TS and to the OFT.

 

Let us konw what the nes figure is. Don't forget that you are also adding 8% right up to now and continuing. With the addiitonal charges, it wouldn't suprie me if you were quits.

 

Warn them that if they try to issue a claim againt you then you will point out their abuse of process to the judge.

We claimed over 1700 pounds and and their claiming 2700 broken down as 1700 on an outstanding loan and 1000 on the actual bank account.

 

and if I am not mistaken a loan and an overdraft cannot be lumped together in one claim

 

You can put anything you want to into a claim but the POC for a current account overdraft and a loan account would be huge and I doubt very much if Howie C. has gone to that much trouble.

 

I assume the charges you are reclaiming have been levied on the current account and the loan is just a lead weight that they have added into the equation for good measure.

 

Have you checked the credit agreement for the loan, is is enforceable?

 

Did you submit your charges claim in detail as a counter claim in your defense? (by the way well done for getting that far!!! :D)

 

sorry lots of questions :rolleyes: but the more information we have the better answers we can give :).

Best to lump the loan and the overdraft together if they have taken charges on both.
