    • I have just read the smaller print on their signs. It says that you can pay at the end of your parking session. given that you have ten minutes grace period the 35 seconds could easily have been taken up with walking back to your car, switching on the engine and then driving out. Even in my younger days when I used to regularly exceed speed limits, I doubt I could have done that in 35 seconds even when I  had a TR5.

    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7.

    • 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 received exactly the same letter raj4u.

I have also had my decision from the FOS. Do i need to tell everyone the result?(They found in favour of BPF of course).

Looking forward to the news from Hausfeld - they are our only hope now.

Hi all, is there anyone 'in the loop' that can give a quick update of any progressions? It's 3 months since Hogan Lovell's reply and just starting to get a bit concerned. I know these things take time, but it'd just be good to know how things are going if anyone knows. Thanks

Here's a laugh. Barclays Partner Finance have ignored all of my letters to them, not even ackowledging receipt. I get 2 letters from them over the weekend, 1 going on about arrears, and wait for it! The second threatening me with Mercers. Only the company that has been calling me 4 times a day for the last 2 months! Thanks Barclays Partner Finance! This will only strengthen our case against you!

This is what you must do.

Go to the legal website - download the template for 'Deed of assignment'.

Amend this to your situation, and send to them, with also a demand for the copy of the contract that BPF have with you.

If BPF have not sold the dept to allied, Allied will not be able to provide you with the contract or deed of assignment, which means they can not ask you for money - It would be like me or anyone else for that matter, asking you for money on someone else's behalf,

Would you pay it to me - no!

Its about time BPF's legal team started filling them in with all the legal blurb...its really just calamitous all this.

I have received the same letter followed by a yellow card received this morning saying "WARNING Our client has informed us that under their terms and conditions, as Formal Demand has been made, payment of the full outstanding balance must be made immediately. And then a name Mrs A Lyness 0141 228 3181 This is from Allied International Credit (UK) Limited, Anderston House 389 Argyle Street, Glasgow G2 8LR.

 

I am also worried about the guarantor situation. My partner took out the loan on my behalf and we were not told that this was a guarantor loan and that there might be any difficulties with S75. I have told the FOS that I wished to proceed against Advent instead, and they have told me that there is not much chance of getting any money out of them as they've gone down the pan.

 

I am extremely anxious about the whole thing.

I too received the same yellow letter..how stupid are they? asking to attach full payment amount with this yellow card and send it back to them:mad2:..i guess most of these letter are addressed by Mrs A lyness. do you think its a better idea to call them and tell that they are not going to get any thing and to mention legal action? if all of us call to this same person, atleast she knows that they wont get any thing back..i was wondering why BPF keep on moving our information between to many debt collectors. Is it legal? themselves knew that they wont get anything, why all this harassment?

Read my post above #5101.Pointless calling them, you will just get idiotic & moranic verbal abuse and threats.Send the template and make it all legal.

BPF just hock the account around hoping to get the money in.They will not have told the DCA about the situation, only that you owe them money.

Thanks for the advice, I sent my letter today recorded delivery.

 

I also had a phone call from the same company today, I would warn people they do seem quite sneeky, I refused to confirm my details and told them I wouldnt deal with them until I had all the documents I had requested. The man then spent 10mins trying to get the info from me by asking various questions, saying the would visit my home , ect. Same old bull so be aware. For referance the number they called me on was 07814 390283

I'm getting calls from Moorcroft Debt Collectors. I told them I need to see a copy of the 'Deed of Assignment'. They said they didn't need one. I then told them I will only communicate in writing. (I won't take any more phone calls). Does anyone know the legal position? Do they need to provide a copy of the 'Deed of Assignment' or not?

Any help appreciated.

Use the template which will ask for it in writing, then they will have to provide it.Without the deed of assignment it could be anyone asking for the money.Put it this way, without it you will then have BPF , Moorcroft and any other DCA taking/demanding money from you. At the moment your debt is with BPF unless they sell it on.If Moorcorft dont have the deed of assignment, then it has not been sold to them. Why would you pay money to someone you do not have a debt with?

Hi All

I have been out of the couintry for the past 3 weeks so am behind on the situation will see what mail I have when I get back.

For myself I want to know if BPF are so sure we should pay them why have they not actually taken us all to court?, every other company I lknow of would have done this by now.. they are stick waving trying to get us to pay hoping we will scare and pay them otherwise they would not be scared to get us in front of a judge.. they know when they do that they have lost..

 

I just checked my credit report and see BPF have now updated it to 5 payments not made.. I want to know if the FOS will help us in reinstating our damaged credit rating which is being done while we dispute of accounts?? or are they too busy kissing BPF's backside to care.

By now it must be obvious that something is wrong so many customers complaining to them about this situation its about time they got off their arses and actually did what they are supposed to do.. investingate and not just read the bull BPF's lawyers are suppling them with

Hi all,

 

Just wondering if anyone can help at all as I know that Im not the only 1 in this situtation. The loan that my father took out for me for the course was not advised was a different loan/credit agreement to one that I would have signed by myself if i was accepted, is this the case??? are they different agreements, can we confirm this or shed some light on this for me please....

 

If so what are the 'legal terms' for this, if found that we have signed the credit agreement under the impression we were covered by section 74 of the CCA, then car'nt us guarentors hold barclays/advent to account for this, the salesman at the end of the day was the representative for boths companys. is it worth this being looked into.

 

What are other people doing in my situation, i feel now that im at the bottom of the pile with not really a hope of getting anything back. No point as i see raising a claim against advent as Im not going to get the money back that way which i accept, so what are my other options, can somebody PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!!

 

Thanks

I have recently posted my letters to my MP but as yet have had no reply whatsoever! :|

 

I have also had Mrs A Lyness's little yellow card (which I ignored) and tonight had a phone call from Allied International. I refused to do their security checks though as I told them I didn't know who they were so they just gave up in the end. 8-) I will now send them the template letter as suggested - thanks guys!

 

On a slightly happier note - I am about to get the keys for my new house this week. Although BPF trying to sully my credit rating with several months payments behind, I added my comments when they first started and managed to get a mortgage despite them. Ha! :razz:

 

Just need the legal team to squash them in court now and end this nightmare once and for all. Thanks so much to Fuzz and all who have been consistently offering help and encouragement to the rest of us despairing souls. Hang on in there guys!!

Yep.

 

It is unlikely that Allied, Moorcroft etc will have a deed of assignment as they are almost certainly working on an agency basis - trying to collect the debt on behalf of BPF. In other words BPF still own the debt which means that they (Allied) themselves could not bring legal action but only a joint action in conjunction with BPF. If any of these agencies had bought the debt, you should have been sent a notice of assignment informing you of this. Either way they are obliged to send you a copy of the agreement they are claiming for.

I have received Barclays answer for letter from my MP. They explained they could not answer to MP because did not have my signed authority do deal with MP. Anyway letter looks like a bit more customized then previous spam trash from them. But only a bit. It answer some questions from template letter we were provided (to send over to MP), but some of those questions treated about whole community concerns not neccesarily mine (like level of APR - different for everybody). And BPF answers are pointed at me (welcome mass spam template) despite of my detailed situation in MP letter.

 

Anyway all copied to our legal team.

 

And still awaiting answer from FOS (no much hope in them though).
