    • Hi everyone, Thanks for the responses. Just a few follow up questions in light of what's been said:   If I dont appeal to PPM, who can I appeal to?   Why should the PCN been attached to the windscreen? Is this written in law?   I assumed the document I had received was the NTK, if this is not the case, what does a NTK look like?   Regarding the compliance with the Protection of Freedoms Act, could the "period" of parking not be argued either way? The legislation doesnt state it must have a start/end time of parking, which I assumed an ANPR camera would pick up if it had one. Is 4 minutes not technically enough to show the vehicle was parked?    Thanks !

    • Will get them done asap My job changes week to week so at the time I didn’t know. 
    • You will probably get a couple more reminders followed by further demands fro unregulated debt collectors with even increasing amounts to pay. They are all designed to scare you into paying.  Don't. It's a scam site and they do not know who was driving and they know the keeper is not liable to pay the PCN. Also the shop was closed so they have no legitimate interest in keeping the car park clear. So to charge £100 is a penalty as there is no legitimate interest which means that the case would be thrown out if it went to Court.  Keep your money in your wallet and be prepared to ignore all their letters and threats. Doubtful they would go to Court since a lot more people would not pay when they heard  MET lost in Court. However they may just send you a Letter of Claim to test your resolve.  If yoy get one of those, come back to us and we will advise a snotty letter to send them.  You probably already have, but take a look through some of our past Met PCNs to see how they are doing.
    • Hello, been a while since I posted on here, really hoping for the same support an advice I received last time :-) Long, long story for us, but basically through bad choices, bad luck and bad advice ended up in an IVA in 2016. The accounts involved all defaulted, to be expected. In 2018, I got contacted by an 'independent advisor' advising me that I shouldn't be in an IVA, that it wasn't the solution for our circumstances and that they would guide us through the process of leaving the IVA and finding a better solution. I feel very stupid for taking this persons advice, and feel they prey on vulnerable people for their own financial gain (it ended with us paying our IVA monthly contribution to them)-long and short of it our IVA failed in 2018. At the same time the IVA failed we also had our shared ownership property voluntarily repossessed (to say this was an incredibly stressful time would be an understatement!) When we moved to our new (rented) property in August 2018, I was aware that creditors would start contacting us from the IVA failure. I got advice from another help website and started sending off SARs and CCAs request letters. I was advised not to bury my head and update our address etc and tackle each company as they came along. Initially there was quite a lot of correspondence, and I still get a daily missed call from PRA group (and the occasional letter from them), but not much else. However, yesterday i had a letter through from Lowell (and one from Capital One) advising that they had bought my debt and would like to speak with me regarding the account. There will be several.of these through our door i suspect, as we did have several accounts with Capital One. Capital One have written to us with regular statements over the last 5 years, and my last communication with them was to advise of of our new address (June 2019), I also note that all of these accounts received a small payment in Jan2019 (i'm assuming the funds from the failed IVA pot). Really sorry for the long long post, but just thought id give (some of) the background for context.... I guess my question at the moment is.....how do I respond to Lowell...do I wait for the inevitable other letters to arrive then deal with them all together or individually...? Do I send them a CCA?  Many thanks

    • 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 for all the advice you have given, I have taken everything you have written down. Like you I am not going to let this go and do everything I can possibly do to fight and get some sort of understanding out of all this.

 

What information you have written is absoloutley awesome. I am sure than anyone who reads it will look at things very differently from now. We have been taken advantage of big time by Lenders and it is about time us consumers fight back. You have been very very helpful.

 

Your scales have been tipped :D. I will come back later with some important information which you may find helpful;).

*The FSA included a ban on arrears charges when a borrower is already repaying, And ensuring firms do not profit from people in arrears among its reform of the mortgage market.

 

*The City watchdog said GMAC, which was an offshoot of car group general motors, had been guilty of "Serious Failings" including;

 

a.Excessive and Unfair charges for customers that did not reflect administration costs.

 

b.Issuing Repossession Proceedings before fully considering the alternatives.

 

The FSA said the case set a precedent because it concluded the investigation in a matter of weeks

 

I now believe that the "FSA or OFT" decided that all agreements, even those before 2006 are subject to Unfair contract , terms and conditions, even if it is an unregulated agreement.

 

The removal of al financial limits to regulation under CCA since 6th April 2008 has rendered obsolete the perceived (but illusory) threat of aggregation in order to avoid regulation.

where did you get this info from?

When thinking about Multiple Agreements, just bear in mind solicitors and barristers are falling back on the Heath v Southern Pacific case which went to appeal. It has many pitfalls so read up on it and not every multiple agreement is the same, but there are not many case laws in relation to high court judgments re s.18 CCA 74, most have been at county court level.

 

Just be aware of it.;)

They thank me for my letter and started by saying SORRY your original letter/request was unanswered

 

I'm keen to resolve your complaint fairly and as quickly as possible , (and then ask for a further 4 weeks to investigate my complaint (4 weeks / they have had 7 weeks now to supply agreement/underwriters sheet under CPR 31.16 request ,.. )

 

further on in the letter they state they would be happy to deal with this complaint , (its not a complaint , its a request for agreement )

and give me a booklet how to refer my complaint to FOS ,.. should I be unhappy with G E's proposal for resolution.. (so looks like we are making waves),...

 

also letter finishes by saying:

if you have any further information that may help me in my investigation , or you need assistance in the meantime , please contact me on the above number , I will be happy to hear from you

yours sincerely

 

YOURS SINCERELY ,.... this was not the case in December when they tried to take our family home , just before xmas,.. after 15 months with no contact ,.. 15 month ago they offered to do the same ,.. then I left it with them to deal with in house ,... 15 month pass (no payments) ,.. then 15 month down the line ;

GIVE US YOUR HOME YOU WILL BE EVICTED IN 3 WEEKS ,...

not falling for this again ,... what are everyones thoughts on this ,... should I just continue with legal proceedings come Monday ,.. to get them to disclose what I requested ,.. ?????????? :):):)

Hi MJ,

 

I think maybe there is a bit of a fear of giving wrong advice. Whereas, a few months back, 31.16 seemed like a good way of squeezing them for info, now it seems (judging by what is being written on a few other threads and can I find them now?:( NO lol) that using CPR is being frowned on by courts as a fishing excercise. and the banks seem to have got wise to that too.

 

Hence why you might not be getting anyone wanting to commit to a response.

 

I don't know enough about your case to comment with confidence - but on a personal level these @w$ts seem to have put you through the mincer, so i wouldn't hold back. but that is very much my own opinion so might be more heart than head lol.

And I think that comment was aimed at proper legal advice like a solicitor, not Cag ;)

bumping ,.. come on folks . thread is dying , lets club together to attack .// lenders have provided a different broker to who we used ,.. and guess what advised us that if we can not contact the broker , probably because the broker is not in business no more ,... this is a pure lie ,.. will not supply underwriters sheets ,.. and as for secret commissions or any commission for that fact (prove it),.. and you will need to find admin to take this up with brokers ,.. last address for brokers ,.. total wrong address , wrong number ,... we have them worried enough to totally lie and say we used a broker that do not hold an credit license ,.. never have done and do not preform business today , no contact name ,.. and no other details to trace them ,... but we have a great trick up our sleeve , and regardless how many bent companies they operate , can not get out the next problem we will cause them ,.. and it will show we never had any doing with the broker they quote ,.. absolute joke ,.. even original broker who we recently contacted said we cancelled our loan ,.. and the lenders were the same lenders we have now ,.. so why would we cancel with the broker we know we used ,.. to get a loan with a broker company that as never held a credit license ? with same lenders ,.. absolutely stinks ,.. and I am on a mission to prove they are lying ,.. they know they are , I know they are ,.. prove the case and show the judge they are lying ,...
