    • I drove a friends a car for a few days and I used cuvva car insurance to insure myself for the time period. Here's the problem: I made a mistake with the dates on the insurance, I ended up driving uninsured for one day and I got a speeding ticket. My friend named me as the driver on the Notice of Intended Prosecution as she should and I will take the blame of course. Will met police ask for proof that I was in fact driving? I mean, any more other than me replying to the NIP that I will soon receive from them? Cause I assume that my insurance for the day will be the proof that they need... Secondly,  if caught driving uninsured, what will happen please? I read it's £300 and 6 points. Is that all or is it worse? I'm only asking for information from knowledgable people. If you intent to just mock, you're certainly not helping. Thanks
    • Hi, Please find letter sent to BMW with all evidence off issues which is a link from Audi. Unable to share the footage on this forum as I am not the best with tech BMW FAULTY CAR LETTER.docx
    • This is the first item that I've ever claimed for - I don't really send too many parcels, probably 5 in the last 5 years, and only two with P2G / EVRi. I've attached two emails from P2G regarding their requiring the documents. They don't specify in the emails what documents I should be sending, although when opening the claim they were requesting that I needed photographic proof of sending - picture of the parcel with their label attached, in the EVRi ParcelShop. The second email is their closing the enquiry due to my failure to produce said document(s). I haven't yet drafted my claim letter, I wanted to be sure of this document situation first before I began action. But therein lies another problem. Not having a P2G account, I cannot be sure of the item value that I declared. The retail value at the time was £600, which is less than the £650 I paid several months earlier, so I would likely have used that, but cannot be sure. And without having an account I can't check either. But, I know that I did properly declare the item and a value that reflected its then retail price - I was concerned this declaration may have been used to single the item for theft. But now that the retail price has reduced substantially, even though the nature of compensation is to return the claimant back to their original position, without my purchase receipt, I was concerned that I may have to claim for less. And yes, I've been through your huge document store of information, in addition to MoneySavingExpert, Which, Citizens Advice, Gov.uk "make a court claim", my own law books (annoyingly I specialised in consumer law when I studied for my law degree, but I graduated 17 years ago), and so now feel that its time to either act, or drop it.

    • 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.

Hi Everyone,

 

Hope someone can help, I'm extremely worried at the moment due to my financial situation. I thought i was getting back on track in September last year by signing up to Chase Saunders Debt Management Company (DM from now on). I have been paying them £150 since Septmember 2009. I thought everything was running smoothly, however i have now been issued a CCJ claim form from Northampton Court regarding CL Finance and one of my Santander card accounts. I told my DM that i had received this and asked what the hell was going on as i had received emailed statments that all my creditors had been paid on a monthly basis. He said that he would speak to CL finance and try to put my account on hold.

 

1)Do I still need to reply to this claim form?

2)What are the chances of my DM agreeing payment with CL finance?

3)Can this CCJ be stopped before I have to go to court?

 

Any Advice/Help is greatly appreciated, I'm worried sick now.

 

Hope someone can help

 

Thanks,

Tony

Hi Tony

 

First thing is to take a deep breath and relax :-) I know easy to say - but most of on here have been there and done that and survived and come out the other end with a lot more knowledge and enough power to take them on.

 

to answer your questions

1. YES

2. not a lot IMHO

3. maybe

 

Ok, can you give us the date of the N1 form, together with the claimant, and the POC (particulars of claim) but leave out any personally identifying info, but with the figures give us a ballpark idea of the amounts quoted.

 

Good luck - you've just started a very interesting journey :)

There is also going to be the issue of the DM - I wonder just how much of your £150 is going to your creditors and of course the question as to how many of your creditors are actually entitled to payment ......

 

but that's for another thread :)

Thanks alot gh2008 and ScarletPimpernel,

 

Ur help really is appreciated.

 

gh2008, here are the details as requested.

 

Date of the N1 form - 11 Jan 2010

 

Claimant -

CL finance Ltd R.O. Kingston House

Centre 27 business park

Woodhead road

Birstall, batley

wf179td

 

Particulars of claim -

The claimants claim is for the sum of £605 being monies due from the defendant to the claimant under a regulated agreement between the defendant and santander cards uk ltd under ref number **********

and assigned to the claimant on the 6th january 2010 notice of which has been given to the defendant.

 

The defendant has failed to make payment in accordance with the terms of the agreement and a default notice has been served upon defendant pursuant to section 87 (1) of the consumer credit act 1974.

 

Pursuant to clause 7 of the agreement, the claimant also claims contractual interest at a rate of 22.320% per annum from the date of these proceedings to the date of judgement, or sooner payment at a daily rate of 0.46.

 

So in total they want £605, plus a court fee of £55 plus solicitors fee of £70. totalling £730.

 

My debt management company has said that i need to fill the N1 in, the admittance form, my personal details and send it to them so that they can fill in the financial side of it. Should i do this?

I wanted to defend against the ccj as i had been told in statements that all my creditors were being paid and wasnt told of any problems over the last four months by my DM.

 

Thanks again for ur help!

Have you had a notice of assignment from CL/Cohen?

 

I can guarantee there is no clause 7 in the T&Cs. There never is.

 

Also, do you have the orginal default notice, termination notice and any terms and conditions? Have you ever CCA'd Santander?

 

Don't do what DM say yet - answer the questions here and we'll help you formulate the best plan. This will certainly involve a CPR31 request to CL Finance .

 

Although you clearly want to pay your debts, the account may be legally unenforceable - Santander have sold it, and true to form CL have gone straight to court without trying to resolve anything.

 

The end result may be that you never pay them another penny - legitimately - and it would serve them right for treating a responsible person so nastily.

You also need to ask your DMC to stop payments to Santander/CLF

 

Have a read of this http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/legal-issues/159445-getting-them-reveal-their.html

 

and get that CPR31 letter off to them ASAP at least recorded delivery, preferably special delivery.

 

You've then got a week or so to do lots of reading on the site :)

Keep the envelope it came in - what was the postmark?

Who do i send the CPR31 letter to? The court? CL finance or my DM?

 

sorry i just read i need to send the CPR31 to cl finance :)

 

If you haven't sent it yet, you should also include a paragraph asking for an extension of time (upto 28 days) under CPR 15.5 in which to submit your defence. (From PT's new thread)

 

If they agree to that you need to inform the court of the extended deadline.

I would change

In addition your statement must be accompanied with a statement that you agree to an extension of the time for me to file my defence.

Thanks again for your comments, I have ignored my Debt Management Company's wishes for me to fill in the admittance forms, so i am now dependent on you guys helping me out all the way to court:)

Fingers crossed!

 

So i have just acknowledged the court paperwork and have stated that i wish to defand all! hope this was the correct thing to do. The CPR31 will be sent out monday morning, first thing to CL fianance recoreded/signed for next day delivery.

What should i expect to receive back and what happens from there?

They have two habits.

 

1. Deny they have to send you anything and refuse to do so.

 

2. State you can have another 14 days to file your defence while they look for things (which, if the court is not informed, might lead them to get a default judgment!).

 

We're aware of their tactics, so sit tight.

 

Let's wait and see...

Can I just remind you that at each stage you should be aware of what you are doing and why and that you are aware that it is you making these decisions - there are many on here who will offer help and advice BUT if it does come to court, it will be you there.

 

Ok, I would write to the DMC to tell them what you are doing.

 

Have a good read of the thread that DB pointed to in #9 and have a search on the site for other threads involving CLF as that will give you some idea of what happens.

 

Get the letter off and wait for the response or the 7 days to expire.

Wait for the reply before posting anything you already have up, but you can start scanning anything you already have in and remove all personal details.

Yes, but this is how they operate. It shouldn't sit well with a judge, especially if there's a costs issue, as the defendant has had no chance to challenge the debt and, as you say, has received no LBA - if there is proven to be a reasonable challenge, then you could argue that the claimant is abusing the court system and is probably wasting the court's time.

 

I think it's something worth raising in a defence, but all it will really do is highlight the unreasonableness of the claimant rather than make any startling legal point.

 

The imperative with CPR is to reach a settlement without resorting to the courts and wasting the court's time - CL Finance/Cohens seem to use it as the first resort. Maybe a mass complaint to the SRA and OFT would be appropriate.

It is a total abuse of the court process.

This is what is supposed to happen PRACTICE DIRECTION – PRE-ACTION CONDUCT - Ministry of Justice

 

If they don't respond in a timely fashion to the CPR I would go for a strike out due to abuse of process, quoting every pre-action protocol they have ignored and their improper response to the CPR 31 request.

After all before taking action they will have ensured that they already have all the paperwork in order wouldn't they ........;)
