    • Thanks all, especially the information about Kev! Yes, I'll make the mods you all suggest, especially the client bits (didn't realise it was a one man band). The only thing I'm not sure of, is the best way to "sign off", especially as the Keeper is not so keen to sign. So I'd much rather send it from our pet dog. BTW does anyone know about the landowners at Harlyn Bay? I did try to find out last year but couldn't find anything useful, and whether it is worth raising this massive cash generator scam with them. I'm guessing the landowners get a small percentage, so happy to go along with it?
    • I haven’t reply, so the hearing hasn’t been decided 
    • whitelist - the same with mine....the battery had a mind of its own. i bought it for my Son...he'd shut it down and it would be completely off but the power light would either stay on or flash...also it wouldnt start properly, had cmos errors on boot and other stuff.   i bought it through HP store on ebay ..brand new. after 6 days of receipt i recieced an email from HP asking if i was happy...i returned an email saying no and that i want to send it back as it was faulty (basically the email served as a reminder for me to leave them good feedback lol...not as a geniune enquiry to actually make sure i was happy with as they didnt reolve the issue when i was not) after trying to sort it for a couple of months with HP not replying, not offering a solution etc i finally got passed tech support who confirmed it was faulty. i then had to return it to their factory. this is where its gets beyond worse...waited 3 times for parcelforce to collect - they didnt. in the end HP sent me a label which i had to take to the post office - not good as im disabled with a mobility disability. then they asked for my bank account number to issue the refund. they hardly ever replied to my emails and it took over a month and a half to refund me once they had received the laptop back. no explanation, no progress emails, no updates. i kept emailing them on a daily basis as no one would reply to my emails through the website, forum, internal email addresses and even phoned 3 different departments who basically had no idea what to do or what was going on and did not help...they couldnt even tell me when the refund would be issued, let alone why it hadnt been done already. on the forums theres other customers who've had to wait 6 weeks , 2 months , over 2 months etc...it seems as though HP like to with hold peoples money to earn interest on the money in their account. i spents days phoning and emailing them - even sent a recorded letter. at the begining i phoned citizens advice and they said i am entitled to put back into the same financial position as before i lost the out of pocket expenses ie: compensation for my time and recorded letter sent etc. ive started a martin lewis 'resolver' case with them and basically in a snotty reply they told me im not entitled to compensation which is contradictory to what citizens advice told me. i was just wondering if theres any .gov website or law/legislation that i could reply with and say "no your wrong - please compensate me"
    • LBC is here. Complete with a note showing a phantom payment. What to do next?
    • I suppose it doesn't make a massive amount of difference as Kev has never had the guts to do court - well at least not yet - but to me the number of cards played still needs to be reduced.  Given the OP has already referred to the "very busy and overflowing car park" in the appeal I'd refer to that and tell Kev to go and look up case no.3JD08399.

    • 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.

Bailiff has incorrectly levied on a neighbours car and charged me £146. I spoke to him on the phone to say that I only have 2 dustbins and 3 recycling bins at the front of my property - none of which belong to me. He said that he had reason to believe that it was my vehicle(?)

 

They are so difficult to deal with; the Bailiff assigned to me is continually contridicting himself which is very frustrating.

 

I originally agreed £180 per month then renegotiated £150; but I just cannot survive like this, I am just writing to rearrange 24 or 36 monthly payments. I have asked for a breakdown of charges and payments made. How do I approach this levy which besides ibeing incorrect is gonna cost me a lot of money.... for nothing.

Thanks

write to the bailiffs company & council (recorded delivery)and tell them that the car listed on the Notice of seizure of goods and inventory does not belong to you tell them to do a dvla check to confirm this and you want it in writing that this has been done and all charges connected with this levy have been removed from your account

 

in your letter to the council tell them to file the letter with your account in case it is needed for future reference

 

any letters sent to a bailiff company should always be copied to the council (for future reference )

:|Thanks for your comments. Don't remember signing anything, getting wise to that one! This makes me soooo mad and frustrated as I know that there are those who do not have access to forums / help such as this and they either end up getting totally fleeced, stressed out or worse still thinking dark thoughts. Thanks for all comments. Will let you know the outcome.

  • 4 weeks later...

Sent payment proposal letter; received reply and told to speak with Bailiff who has refused saying 3 years is too long. Still no statement produced but within 1/2 bailiff dropped envelope thru my door stating that he will be back in 2 days (with locksmith) to remove goods. He says that they cannot take incorrect levy fees off. ahhhhhh! Can't even get thru to council to discuss. ????????

don't let the bailiff into your home and regardless of what the bailiff says if he has never been in your house before he cant get a locksmith to gain entry to your home

 

and he can tell you they cant remove the levy fees 100 times but they cant charge you a levy fee when they have levied goods that don't belong to you

watch out for the van/removal fee

The levy is not valid and nothing is owed by you. The law doesnt even prescribe a levy fee of £146 so he is conning you over his fees.

 

Let the bailiff lift the car and see how far he gets with it.

No joy with contacting council. Bailiff due tomorrow but I'm not stressing out to much.... you can't be wrong and strong! Many thanks for advice and comments. This forum has given me much strength; more power to you all! Will persue and let you know.
