    • Why would you pay for  service you know to be rubbish? Block their email address and report it as spam. Ignore them.
    • Start off by clicking this link https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/ that will take you to the beginning of the sub- forum where you will have all the topics which have been posted – listed. The first 10 or dozen or so titles referred to threads which are "pinned" and that means that they are fixed and they tend to be information threads and are not threads which have been posted by people asking for help. If you cast your eye down the various titles you will start to understand what the subject content of each thread is. Eventually you will get to a shaded bar which is labelled "other topics". That shows you the beginning of the various request for help that have been made by people including yourself. You will probably find your own thread at the top of those or near the top. The order changes according to the most recent which has been posted. Start using the forum more and you will get to understand the pattern. If you don't visit very much then it will always be a stranger to you  
    • Good afternoon, Im assuming the letter I received yesterday isn’t a letter of claim/ letter before action? As I have never dealt with this I’m just double checking.    Many thanks! 
    • The NTK is not compliant because it states you overstayed but does not state what their permitted parking period is. Anyway the permitted parking period cannot vary from the original period when planning permission for that car park was granted, I suspect it was an all day job or certainly longer than 2 hours 45 minutes. It's always worth getting on to the shops you visited socials and declaring how you will never shop there again and drop an email to the CEO of the store you spent most money it. Other than that it's waiting time for a Letter Before Claim, then snotty letter time. Be prepared for a flood of every increasing threatening letters from the PPC and their tame DCA.

    • 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.

Thanks Caro.

 

True about curry - and I have a feeling that place isn't cheap. We'll have to see what people want to do when it goes to the voting stage!

It's a Tea Bar and Grill, not just an Indian restaurant..

This isn't what I'ld call expensive, the setting inside is stunning too..

It won't be too far from Jurys (Great Bridgewater St) either

which is where people seem to stay on these meets.

It's directly behind the Jury's Inn, 5 minutes walking at a slow pace!

 

Again, ignore the Bradford reference in the link, it's Manchester specific..
