    • Should this to be take into court with him or should he send something in earlier?
    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.

    • 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.

WELCOME FINANCE - Letter Received Today

 

FINAL RESPONSE

Dear ...

 

I write to your letter received 28 October 2009. Please accept my apologies for the delay in my response.

 

We would take this opportunity to refer you to the recent judgement given in the case of Southern Pacific Personal Loans v Michael Walker [2009] EWCA Civ 1176.

 

In your complaint, you stated that interest had been charged on the Acceptance Fee, which equated to treating the Acceptance fee as credit, the result of which was the same that the same had been incorrectly included within the total charge for credit.

 

We would state that in the above - mentioned judgement, it was ruled that interest may be charged on items included within the total charge for credit,and by doing so, no breach of the Consumer Credit Act has been committed.

 

We can provide a copy of the judgement, should you so wish.

 

We would therefore comment that including the Acceptance Fee within the total charge for credit and by charging credit interest on the same, we have

therefore committed no breach of the Consumer Credit Act, and your agreement will remain enforceable.

 

We therefore invite your comments relating to this point.

 

I can advise you that section 142 of the Consumer Credit Act preludes

enforcement of agreements already settled.

 

Having viewed our records, I can advise that as only £1.00 was received in

regards to information requested and a copy of your signed agreement and statement of account was issued to you following this payment.

 

Should you request all information held on file then you would need to submit a further request and payment for £10.00.

 

The information regarding insurances is not sent from Welcome Financial Services.We simply sell the product and the administrators Direct Group send out the information to you.

 

The 14 days cooling off period starts form the day you were quoted and not as you believe from the day you sign the documents, however I find this point irrelevant as you accepted the loan and have paid it off in full.

 

For your information, only Hire Purchase Agreements need to be signed on

trade premises.

 

Based on the above points, I find that I am unable to accept your complaint.

 

Should you remain dissatisfied with our final response, you can escalate your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service within six months of the date staed on this letter.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Customer Complaints Department

 

 

LETTER

 

 

October 20 2009

Dear Sirs

 

Account Number: 936190

 

I am writing to you with regard to the above account. In reading the documents your company has provided I have come across what I believe and can prove to be a breach of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 hence rendering the above account unenforceable.

 

I have discovered from your companies recent statement that whilst my agreement shows an acceptance fee of £235 that is calculated into the overall loan total your company has failed to disclose on this document that the £235 has had an interest rate applied. This contravenes s.61 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and has been proved in court through Wilson V First County Trust.

 

As this was not accepted on the original agreement and consequently I will be referring this matter to the Financial Ombudsmen Service as I deem this to be a direct attempt to mislead the customer.

 

Therefore as this account is now unenforceable I will with immediate effect and request a refund of all payments made to your company before this November 4 2009.

 

 

If my request is not complied with within 10 days I will have no further option to file this matter in the courts.

 

I expect a swift response to this matter

 

Yours Faithfully

 

 

 

LETTER 2

 

 

 

Further dispute with loan agreement

The loan agreements in question are secured personal loan.

 

Loan agreement

 

I completed the agreement on 28/02/03 and sent back to welcome finance on 01/03/03. I had not completed the form with my signature so the letter of 24/02/03 asked to contact office and advise if I was going to proceed with loan. Welcome Financial Services signed this agreement dated 11/03/03 and Welcome Financial Services paid 13/03/03 into my loan account on 13/03/03.Direct Debit was taken 31.03.2003 £342.57.Secured Loan Payments due to start one month

after the agreement date and will continue on the same date after that.

 

At no time was the agreement signed at a welcome office or any face to face negotiations entered into.

 

On entering a secured loan, fourteen clear days for a cooling off period needs to be applied. I was never given this fourteen day cooling off period.

 

The cancellation period begins on the date of the conclusion of contract and ends fourteen days from that date.

 

The loan account was paid prior to the completion of the fourteen day cooling off period.

 

On entering a secured loan, fourteen clear days for a cooling off period needs to be applied. I was never given this fourteen day cooling off period.

 

The cancellation period begins on the date of the conclusion of contract and ends fourteen days from that date.

 

The loan account was paid prior to the completion of the fourteen day cooling off period.

 

 

Since the agreement is unenforceable, I suggest you give serious consideration to this as any attempt of litigation will be vigorously defended and I will counter claim for all quantifiable damages.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Could someone please assist me

 

Regards

Dear All

 

I live in Scotland and to be brief......I was advised back in 2005 by CAB Glasgow to settle WF and start fresh. I did believe at the time that my instinct there was something amiss but between the pressure of BOS and my solicitor's stating they were going to enforce the secured loan.

Yet missing a lack of knowledge on my behalf.

 

This site has many experts and I would appreciate help to review this case although paid in full May 2005.

 

I have checked with Direct Group - no details

Credit Report Equifax + Experian shows Joint Mortgage

Standard Security Form is blank from copy sent back in 2003

Borrowers name s my deceased mother and my own name

PPI Claim Sent - No Refund From Welcome Finance

Add Hoc Fees and Capitalisation Charges.

Claimed £214.00 in 2006 for what was showing in Loan Statement Jan.2005

Statement 2009 - Shows Add Hoc Fees + Capitalisation £510.00.

Settlement Figure Paid by my solicitor is £20079.19 + Golds Fees For Discharge £110.13

October 2 2009 Secured Loan Statement - Standing Order £19714.57

 

I am so confused.

 

Any ideas would be very helpful.................

Hope you are well.

After reading the latest news regarding Welcome Finance on the forum today.

 

As an alternative could I take WF to court for Mis Selling PPI ?

Hi Dolly

 

Been reading your thread as I am in the same position.

 

The acceptance fee on my contract has been calculated into the loan and the apr is consequently incorrect. Also I live in Scotland.

 

This is what I was advised to do.

 

You already have the 'contract' they sent - I sent a £10 crossed Postal Order to Welcome for the Subject Access Request - a full, up to date statement of the payment and charges on the account.

 

I put these on a thread and also got hold of a telephone harrassment letter (if you are getting calls from them), which I will post tomorrow. I also intend to put the account in dispute.

 

Post doesn't seem to be around atm (hopefully just taking a well deserved break) but OzzyWizzard is another among others that can help practically.

 

For moral support there are plenty on here that do that.

 

I've hoped I've helped in some small way.

 

Regards.

Wishing you a very successful outcome aginst WF.

 

Best regards
