    • We need to see the actual document from the IAS where it is written - "The Operator's evidence shows no payment for the Appellant's vehicle, or anything similar. It does show two payments for the same registration in quick succession. I would take a reasonable guess, based on the circumstances described, that the person paying has paid for the registration of the person they assisted again." You can't just type it up yourself. At the hearing in July or August or whenever the judge will have two Witness Statements. One from Bank's director says you never made a second appeal. You say you did make a second appeal and the IAS concluded that payment was made. The judge will immediately twig that either you or the director is lying.  But who? Fail to show the documentation form the IAS and instead just produce something you've typed yourself will make it look like you just made up the appeal and you are lying and you will lose the case. Please let us see what the IAS adjudicator sent.
    • I used to have a retail outlet in London selling my husband's photography.  We also had a co-op with staff so they weren't directly employed by me, but I paid for the other overheads etc.  When my husband died, I carried on as usual for a while but then I became ill and moved quite far away so logistically was becoming very difficult.  I came to an arrangement (verbal) with one of the guys I trusted, that I would send him the images to print and sell as normal, and I wouldn't take any money, as a short term solution until I got back on my feet and worked out the best way to do things. He would pay all the  rent, insurance etc... Over a year later, not able to give things away for free anymore,  I drew up a contract as a wholesale agreement, so I would get everything printed and sent to him and I would invoice his for what he ordered. I noticed form the beginning that he wasn't ordering enough or frequently enough to be making any money, and was suspicious he was doing his own orders on the sly and ordering just enough from me to keep my happy.  I checked with my printer, which I've been with for 20 years, and he sad he wasn't getting orders for my images from anyone else. I emailed a few other printers to ask them to keep a look out for some images but I soon realised this would be impossible to police.  The only option really would be to buy a print from him and check the stamp on the back of it.  I finally managed to get hold of on the prints on sale, and sure enough, he did not order it through me.   In the contract he signed in 2022 it explicitly states that he must destroy all files I had previously sent him etc etc so e is in breach of that.  When I drew up the contract, I was careful to make sure it was legally binding, but before I let rip at him, I need to know where I stand.  The contract is here: PARTIES This WHOLESALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made effective as of 30th June, 2022, by and between ############################## The Supplier and the Client, collectively referred to as the "Parties," hereby agree to the following terms: TERMS AND CONDITIONS SALES OF GOODS The Supplier agrees to provide the following goods to the Client (“Goods”): Description of Goods ################################# Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b BOTH PARTIES AGREE: The Client purchases the Goods through the Supplier directly, and agrees to delete/destroy any previously held digital images (Goods) owned by the Supplier, and agrees not to use any such files for monetary gain, outside of this agreement, either directly or through a third party from immediate effect of this agreement. The Client purchases the other materials necessary for resale of the Goods independently of this agreement. The Client shall have exclusive rights for resale of Goods at ###########, and also with permission, as a retailer of the Goods elsewhere, provided that there is no conflict of interest between the Supplier and the Client. The Client is free to decide their own retail prices, for the Goods. The Supplier shall use #####  to provide the printed Goods on Fujifilm Crystal Archive paper, with Lustre finish, and will not use any other Printer unless #### cease to trade, without prior approval from the Client. The Supplier shall not impose restrictions on size or frequency of orders made by the Client. The prices provided by the Supplier shall not increase for a minimum of 3 years, unless the prices of the raw materials rise, in which case the client will be informed immediately. Any discounts/promotional prices of raw materials shall be passed on to the Client by the Supplier, and the invoice will show adjustments for this, as well as credit for return postage of any damaged goods. This agreement can be terminated by the Client without notice; the Supplier must give notice of no less than 90 days, unless the terms of the agreement are breached, in which case, the agreement can be terminated with immediate effect. PAYMENT Orders must be paid for upon receipt of invoice, via Bank transfer: ######### Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b DELIVERY AND INSPECTIONS All orders received by 12.00am (midnight) shall be processed by the Supplier the following working day and delivery of order shall arrive in accordance with the Royal Mail schedule, or DPD, should express delivery be requested. The Client shall be liable for the delivery charge which shall be added to the invoice. The Goods will be delivered to the address specified by the Client. The Client shall be provided with order tracking, and should any problems arise with the ordering system or the couriers (Royal Mail, DPD), the Client shall be informed without delay of any such issues. The Client will inspect the Goods and report any defects or damage to the Goods in transit as soon as possible upon receipt of Goods, and will retain damaged Goods for return to Supplier for refund/replacement. GENERAL PROVISIONS CONFIDENTIALITY The prices of the Goods and other information contained in this Agreement is confidential and will not be disclosed by either party unless with prior written consent of the other party. INDEMNIFICATION The Client indemnifies the Supplier from any claims, liabilities, and expenses made by any third party vendors or customers of the Client. GOVERNING LAW This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with UK Law. ACCEPTANCE Both parties understand and accept the wholesale arrangement stipulated under this Agreement. Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties has executed this Wholesale Agreement as of the day and year set forth above.   Signed by us both electronically.   I haven't broached any of this yet, and I am looking for some advice about what action to take.  The main issue I've got is that he has still go those images.  If I terminate the contract, I will need to know that he no longer has those images and I can't think of a bulletproof way to do this. I'm thinking I might tell him I will continue with the contract but ask for a  sum in damages and say that if I find out he's still doing it down the line I will terminate the contract and sue him for damages. The damages side of things I'm not sure how it would work as he is self employed, and I'm positive he doesn't declare all of his earnings to HMRC, in order to find out how much I have lost, would the court demand to go through his tax self assessments?  I'm not sure how to proceed with this, I don't want to lose that place as an outlet as it is in a prime spot in London, which is why I let him have those images in the first place as I would have had to pull out altogether at that point.  I am regretting it somewhat now though.  Please help.
    • I cannot locate anything in my paper work that states 2 payments were made? Perhaps you could point this out? In reply from IAS it states "The ticketing data has been attached" nothing was sent to me. I made a response to the IAS all this was done online
    • Thanks again for your responses. The concern I have here, is that freeholder of the land (a company, who presumably would have been the ones to have initially instructed PPM to manage the parking here), will have proof of exactly how long the vehicle was on site for, as the driver was meeting operatives from that company on a separate matter. On this basis, if the matter was to get to court, I feel all the other technicalities about signage, size of signage/font, lack of start/finish times, will not be enough to have any case dropped? This PCN was brought up to the freeholder but they have advised that PPM will not waive this charge.

    • 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

I had an account with principles which i closed roughly about 5 to 6 years ago,

after I'd closed the account I heard nothing more from Principles.

 

 

About 2 to 3 years later I started receiving debt collections letter from various companies for the above account,

after calling most of them and asking for a copy of the principles statements showing the debt,

the only company that responded was IKANO Financial,

 

 

I eventually received, what can only be described as a piece of paper with an amount then monthly interest amount, no letterhead or anything.

 

 

I rang IKANO and told them that I was not going to accept this as it was not an official Principles Statement.

I heard nothing more from them.

 

 

the debt ended up with Lowells, and despite requesting the above, nothing was ever received from them.

 

I have just received a N1CPC Claim Form for the County Court Bulk Centre at Northampton,

 

 

Issue date 6th Jan 10,

 

 

Claimant being Lowell Porfolio Ltd and Bryan Carter & Co acting as solicitors,

 

 

the Particulars of Claim are as follows:

 

"The Claimant's claim is for the price of goods sold and delivered by the Claimant to the Defendent.

Claimants A/C No ####### to goods sold between 10/07/2004 and 09/07/2009 and the Claimant claims £313.78.

 

The Claimant also claims interest thereon pursuant to S.69 County Court Act 1984 Ltd

to one year to the date hereof at the rate of 8% per annum amounting t0 £0.00.

 

I have just completed the online "Acknowledgement of Service" as I want to defend the entire claim.

 

Any help or advice in defending cases like this would be greatly appreciated!!

Ta

There are two lines of attack here -

 

1. You could try the statute barred approach if you are sure the debt is old enough.

2. You can quite legitimately defend this on the basis that you believe the debt has been repaid and have always requested proof that it isn't whenever you have been approached.

 

Now's the time to get all your paperwork together.

I really do appreciate all those 'thank you' emails - I'm glad I've been able to help. Apologies if I haven't acknowledged all of them.

You can also ding my gong if you prefer. :)

They are trying to get round the fact of probably having no CCA by saying "for goods sold and delivered" whereas this claim is actually a cca claim.

 

Also, since you haven't written to lowell before this then they're buggered as they haven't given you proper notice of assignment.

 

You need to acknowledge the claim saying that you will defend the whole amount. Then read this:-

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/legal-issues/241827-legal-action-how-start.html#post2695725

 

It will tell you what you need to do in these initial stages. We can then put together a defence for you later on.

Hi

 

I've read the attached link that you posted Nicklea

and I think am right in assuming I need to send Bryan Carter the 31.14 letter.

 

 

I'm not entirely sure how I should be wording this letter as in the 'Particulars of Claim' they don't make any mention of any documents.

 

 

Sorry don't mean to sound stupid ,

just don't want to mess this up by wording it incorrectly.

 

 

I've done the Acknowledgement of service and notified of intention to defend the whole claim,

 

 

Is there anything else i should be doing.

Filing an acknowledgement and stating you plan to defend the claim usually results in Carter sending a notice of discontinuane to he court (copied to you) and scuttling back under his stone.

 

One that happens, and believe me it will, you can legitimately start complaining about this to all and sundry.

Thanks vjohn82, have copied the letter you posted and will be posting it special delivery tomorrow. Can i just clarify something with all of you that have responded to my thread (dilemma) as I'm really worried about timescales.

 

Claim Form Issue Date - 06 Jan 2010

Claim Form received - 12 Jan 2010 (due to snow hampered postmen)

Online 'Acknowledgement of Service' - 15th evening, so court wouldn't have received it till the 18th

CPR 31 Disclosure Request posted to Bryan Carter - 20 Jan 2010

 

The question is, what date do I have to respond to the Courts with my defence? If my calculations are correct this will be the same day that Bryan Carter has to respond to the CPR31 request, will this be too late?

 

Please please help

I'd get the embassered defence in ASAP, that way, as you have submitted a defence, once the cretin discontinues, you can claim for costs ;)

Basically a "holding defence" - you are in effect saying to the court that the Claimant have not demonstrated their claim effectively/precisely or backed it up with paperwork.

 

Therefore in order to meet the CPR provision of filing a defence you have to submit an embarassed one simply because their cause of action has not been defined.

 

Here's an example:

 

removed as out of date.

Is this ok to be done using the courts online service, if so what date should i submit it?

 

Thanks for all your patience with me.

 

 

As previously stated, ONCE you have submitted a defence, should the claiment discontinue, they are lible for your costs.

 

As you have no chance of receiving anything from Carter, I would, if it was me, put in the defence ASAP. (Make the weasle pay)

Hi

 

I received another letter from Bryan Carter a couple of days after I did the acknowledgment of service,

 

 

saying how having a judgement registered against me has a serious impact on obtaining further credit

& how its "not too late for you to avoid this happening"!!

 

 

Apparantly the same bog standard letter they always send out.

 

 

But other than that nothing.

 

 

Not exactly sure what happens next tho, i sent Bryan Carter CPR 31 Disclosure Request letter,

 

 

but haven't heard anything yet & have put in an "embarrassed defence" as per instructions

 

 

but have heard nothing so I assume I just sit and wait,

 

 

can any one advise?

Hi Just received another letter from Bryan Carter saying

 

"We have referred the matter to our client and will revert to you as soon as we are in receipt of instructions. In the mean time, we confirm that we have placed the account on hold."

 

Is this another bog standard letter? If so how long do I need to give them before I ask for the matter to be finalised and removed from my Credit File.

 

Thanks
