    • They will be at my friends house, I put all her paperwork in a file for her to keep safe.  They were sent direct to her in January 2023, just after the case was struck out looking at my past posts.  Guess the website went down last night? 
    • Good afternoon Stu. Many thanks for taking a look at my defence pdf and giving it the ok.   On the claim form Question 3 they ticked yes   'are you the claimant asking for an order that the defendant pay the cost of the claim?' . So it looks i can only hope the judge sympathises with my appalling treatment by the landlord and their agent.   As i previously said i was so desperate to find a place due to my previous eviction 7 months ago, i took something that i was not entirely happy with. If you look at the pics on my attached pdf, you can see masses of weeds at the front, side and rear garden, the back grass needs professional equipment to cut it, countless dead insects on many places including the kitchen window, same with the disgusting cobwebs. Regarding the garden The girl told me she would talk to the landlord but nothing was ever done, i have not touched the garden and its still in the same mess except there is lots of dead grass. I thought all agencies would get a cleaner in before a new tenant moves in but it seems the landlord was too tight to get this done. I was left with no option but me and my daughter to clean this up. Stu do you think its worth making the judge aware aware of the mess i faced when i moved into this house? pics of poor condition.pdf
    • This already does count against you on black box policies so I can't imagine it being any different if Tesla really was reporting to insurers.

    • Hi Lookinforinfo Thank you for your words of encouragement re the mortgage. But sadly we have no pension to fall back on, we have always been self employed and never in the position to put extra money away into pension. But we are dealing with that. We are not in arrears but trapped by a dormant lender! Anyway yes there were 2 seperate NTK, date of infringement on one was 23/4/21 for my parents and the other was 28/4/21 to my husbandm (this is the one that was discontiunued). They were both issued on 26/5/21, well after the 14 days. Please see my parents NTK questionnaire below, I have uploaded this and pictures previously on this post. But if you look at the detail, this is why I say they are more or less identical in every way. Apart from I think my parents were in there for a minute less than my husbands car.  They entered at 16.58 and exited and 17.15. I am waiting to see my parents this evening to get the court notice to allocation for her one in August 2024. Ill upload that as soon as I can Many thanks   1 Date of the infringement 23/4/21 2 Date on the NTK 26/5/2021  3 Date received 1/6/2021 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012? [Y/N?] NO - I cant see it anywhere 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? yes  2 x pictures, 1 entering and 1 exiting  6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] no 7 Who is the parking company? Parking Eye 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Kenwood House, Tunbridge Wells For either option, does it say which appeals body they operate under. BPA

    • 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.

I have a thought..

 

Those of you concidering paying Barclays just so that you will be able to claim later.. while you are paying.. it is in effect still your money..they just have it.. will they give you the interest that money would have had in your bank accounts??

 

That is I think part of their plan they know they may have to give it back to you.. but while they have it you do not

The legal team are compiling the like for like case against Computeach now so if anyone please has evidence that they had 3 years, or even no dates, entered on their Advent agreement it would be appreciated if you could forward them a copy if you are part of the no win no fee group action. Mine had a set 2 years end date.

I'm aware some people have posted about this already but I'm obviously not at liberty to start copying documents people have posted without their permission.

 

Also, they need people's accounts on the workshop seminars they attended in Kidderminster. Were they any good? Was the tuition good standard? Did you have to wait ages before you got a place?

 

Legal team contact details on the student's website. Or send it to Fuzzbutt at the usual address to forward on.

Thanks.

Not sure if any of you guys saw this but there was a big thing about training providers on the bbc breakfast news this morning though looking into this, they didnt mention advent by name but they were definately one of the companies involved in the case studies mentioned, the experts were also quite clear the finance providers are liable though. Was on at 9:40 this morning, bbc 1

I have no start/end dates on my contract with advent, I already send this to the legal team at the start. I have since received an email from CT with a start and end date which they say they got from my advent file. I'll send that to the financial team on monday with another copy of my contract just in case :)

I did a 2 day workshop at Kidderminster[Advent]

I was offered a place, i replied, and did the workshop [sept 2008]

It was actually very good.Did mocks on the workshop, had a follow up

call from the tutor with some good help and advice.

The Tutors on the workshops did know their stuff.

You needed a 75% pass on the mocks, if you got that they would put

you through for the actual exam. [this is not the case with CT]

 

The workshop included tools at no extra charge, such as.....

Anti static kits etc, tool kit for PC maintenance..

Extra reading material, links to on-line sim training in the states.

Not much in the greater scheme of things, but never the less you got the impression that you paid them a lot of money so they were doing their job.

Just re looked over my contracts and agreements.

And there is no time limit stated.

Just Systems Engineer self pace study.

Yet CT told me on the phone, after reviewing all Advent paper work

passed over to them, i had a time limit after this i would have to pay the extra fee's.Not what BPF are saying.

Well either they were just lying or they really do not know what they are doing.

 

I asked CT to remove me from their data base.

The reply from CT was they would retain all my training materials for when i sign up.

Anyone managed to ascertain what actually counts as barclays final response?? jus got all my stuff sent back from fos sayin gotta wait 8 weeks as none of my latters count as final response although they seem pretty final 'you got computeach blah dee blah' stalling tactics!! cant be overly confident :rolleyes:

 

They'll say their complaints procedure is exhausted and all basically they will not correspond with you on the matter anymore, you need to go to FO if you're not happy with the outcome!

When Barclays sent my final response, they also sent me a copy of my contract and high lighted where it says 2 year contract.

I am aware of this but like you guys have said, the salesman said it's not set in stone, take as long as you like.

 

Since I spoke to the Salesman from Advent and he was keen to help, he now hasn't replied to my email for the last week! :(

Well..... point out to BPF that a two year contract will only amount to £2,400.00 with CT, and £4,900.00 as with Advent - Not like for like.

And ask for a refund on the balance.

This is where BPF are not being consistent,and are just busking it.

They are chancers hoping if they bully enough you will all cave in.

Open another dispute over the balance...

Bully them for the balance, or they cancel your agreement, and i am being serious...I hope you point out these little things to FOS...They all add up.

yeah I would except I don't want to sign up to CT! They're a bunch of poo!

At the end of the day, I think they probably are the "closest" to what Advent offered but still just not as good!

Why would we all have signed up to such an expensive course if there were no benefits over the rest...we're not stupid! So they should just cancel the agreement and give us our money back as there just is no like for like course! Simple!...fingers crossed!

And thats it in a nutshell my friend.

We all done our homework at the outset.

CT were not even close in the running - full of self promo with nothing

apart from a history of financial chaos to back it up...:D

Thanks everyone - I've also sent legal team a link to the last page so they can read people's responses here.

 

I'll be mailing my documents (Photocopies of) on monday, likewise i have no start or end date on my enrolment form either.

 

Hopefully this could mean money back, could really do with that £6500 being back in my bank account!!
