    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?
    • The neighbour's house is built right on the boundary so the side of their house is effectively the 'wall' in our garden separating the two properties. It's a three storey house and so the mortar poses a potential danger to us. Because of the danger, we have put up an interior fence in our garden to ensure we don't risk mortar dropping on us. That reduces the garden by 25% which is not only an inconvenience, but it's the part of the garden where we had lined up contractors to install a patio and gazebo which we will use for our wedding reception in less than 2 months. We have spoken to the neighbour's caretaker who is on the case, has spoken with a roofer and possibly a scaffolding company, but there are several issues. They don't seem to understand the urgency. As long as there is a risk of falling mortar, we can't carry out any work in the garden, and unless they hurry up, we're looking at cancelling our wedding as it's not viable to book a venue because we can't use our own garden! Also, they want to put the scaffolding up in our garden which would be ok with us if it was a matter of a few days and they hurried up, but there is a tree (most likely protected by the conservation area), so most likely they can only reach part of the roof with the scaffolding if they put it up in our garden. We suggested a roofer with a cherry picker but they seem to want to use a company they've used before. Any and all comments, suggestions, advice is more than welcome.  PS. does it make any difference that the neighbour is a business (ltd) and not a private dwelling?

    • 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.

Update.

 

Went to hearing and judge did not really seem interested. I dont even think he read any of the witness statements or had any idea of the case b4 we got in there.. Said the conumer credit argument would not be considered but he did pick up on that i was made to take out the insurances but i had to prove it. So he adjourned the case for a few weeks

 

called stephenson's who wrote to godebt stating the agreement was unenforceable under the consumer credit act.

 

I now have deed of release

hi, i was looking thru google looking for info about yes car credit and go debt when i came across the threads on here, i was just wondering if anyone could just give me a bit of advise regarding this matter as to be honest with you i dont have a clue about legal matters,

 

around 7 years ago i got a car from yes car credit on finance which was a vauxhaull vectra, (which ran out of petrol at the top of road as i drove out of there) lol, on the same night i was driving into coventry and the engine blew up on me so i got in touch with yes car credit and they told me to take the car back to them and they would give me a replacement, so i did this and when i got there the car they had was an extra £1000 approx but was a better looking car and being young and stupid i just agreed to it as it was the 1st newish car i owned.

 

but once again it wasnt long before i was running into probs with this car aswell, around 3 months later the gearbox went so i got in touch with them again and they said it was wear and tear and they wouldnt fix it, so i went out and paid almost £1000 to have the gear box fixed myself, (aswell as paying the finance) but then other stuff started to go wrong with the car so i said to myself i wont pay them for 3 months to get my £1000 back that i payed for the gearbox, (i wanted to mess them about like i had been messed about) but after about 2 months i went to get in my work van and noticed there was a clamp on my vectra, as i got out my van to inspect it 2 men came and told me they had come to reposess the car which to be honest i wernt too botherd about as i was paying £6000 for a car that was nackerd, but the thing that pi**ed me off is that they wouldnt let me get my personal belongings out of the car.

well i never head anything for a while till i recieved a letter saying they had sold the car at auction for £2700 and that i still owed them £5200. so i phoned them and said how can you sell the car to someone for £2700 and try and charge me £5200 for a car i no longer own and they said it was for the outstanding finance, the intrest, the charges ect ect, so i bassicly told them to take me to court.

 

well once again i didnt hear anything from them till about 12 months ago till i have had go debt trying to get in touch with me after the money i supposedly "OWE" them.

 

the prob i have is that i have moved house twice since i had the car so all the paperwork, agreement ect has been misslaid or lost.

 

i just cant see how someone has got the car for £2700 but they want £5200 for something i dont own.

 

i was just wondering if you could give me some advice about what to do next as i dont want to speak to go debt and have them throw all legal stuff at me that i dont understand.

 

could you please give me any pointers on what to do as i havent got a clue about this kind of thing

 

SORRY ABOUT BIG ESSAY BUT JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE,

 

many thanks, rob

hi mate,

 

thanks for taking your time to get back to me, can i start off by saying that you are 1 clever person and i must congradulate you on your 100% score against go debt, lol

 

i have read your link and i must say im well impressed with how you know how to put them in their place, but unfortunatly i dont understand what i am supposed to do next with them, i get what your saying about everything MUST go thru the post on paper and not over the phone so i can keep a record but i havent kept any of the letters from them in the past as i have just brushed the problem under the carpet as there is no way i can afford to pay that kind of money for something i dont own, so how do i go about it from now on? do i answer the phone next time they phone and ask them to put everything in writing from now on and take it from there?

 

its good to know that bassicly they cant really do anything about it tho as its my parents house that is getting the phone calls and letters as thats where i lived when i had the car and they are getting worried about it. (they must be coming the bully like people have been saying)

 

im sorry if i sound silly mate but ive never had to do anything like this before so its all new to me and im just glad i found this forum to speak to people that does actually know about this kind of thing.

 

many thanks, rob

Re: Harassment by telephone

 

 

ACCOUNT NUMBER: XXXXXXX

 

Dear Sirs

 

I am writing in relation to the quantity and frequency of telephone calls that I have received from your company, which I deem to be personally harassing.

 

I have verbally requested that these stop, but I am still receiving calls. (Delete if necessary)

 

I now require all further correspondence from your company to be made in writing only.

 

I am of the view that your continued harassment of me by telephone puts you in breach of Section 40 of the Administration of Justice Act 1970, and the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.

 

If you continue to harass me by telephone, you will also be in breach of the Communications Act (2003) s.127 and I will report you to OFCOM, Trading Standards and The Office of Fair Trading, meaning that you will be liable to a substantial fine.

 

Be advised that any further telephone calls from your company will be recorded. (**Even if you don‘t yet have recording equipment!!**)

 

 

Yours faithfully,
