    • Good luck with that. Most leases don't even follow the majority of the 2002 regulations (too old) let alone the new one. The £250 cap needs to be placed in the lease through a deed of variation and good luck getting freeholders to agree to that. It's not just some magical thing that just caps it one day. Some freeholders are only reducing them through lease extensions at massive costs (essentially buying out the difference in ground rent) and if you're doing that you might as well extend on a peppercorn anyway.
    • Yeah, I would confirm that anyway, as there is a separate sheet where I have to put in those details and my insurance number and driving licence number. That is on page 2 (page one is their allegations) then page three is a statement that you weren't the driver and space to give details who was driving. Page 4 is an empty sheet for a statement to explain the situation. So I will fill out my details as the driver on page 2, admitting I was driving at the time, and then attach my statement as above as a separate sheet. That should hopefully do it at this stage

    • Seems OK, except that you must provide your details (as the driver). Include your name, address, DOB and driving licence number. This is to comply with s172 of the Road Traffic Act. Keep a copy and get a free Certificate of Posting from the Post Office.
    • Dear all, some information/advice required please.   I recently received a Further Steps Notice about a fine from 19/03/2018 which I knew nothing about. It was regarding a vehicle parked on the street without tax ( It was covered up and there because the only key to it had been stolen, I had been away from home  and I was having trouble getting a new key cut and coded to the vehicle )  I had not made a change of address to DVLA which would be why I knew nothing about the fine until receiving the final steps notice dated 29th April 2024 and giving me 10 working days to pay, although the notice did not arrive till May 9th 2024. I emailed the London Collection and Compliance Centre on May 13th 2024 asking for any information and they sent me a copy of the original fine. It is for  £390 back vehicle tax, £85 cost and £600 fine.  I now have received a Notice of Enforcement dated 7th June 2024 demanding payment ( total £1036)  or an arrangement by 6am 15th June ( tomorrow )  My question is is it tool late now to question the £600 fine part of the total amount to be paid ? That amount seems punitive.  Would making a statuary declaration regarding having no knowledge of the original court date apply ? And any other advice gratefully received. I am on Universal Credit and apparently they have already taken £177 via benefit reductions which I wasn’t aware of, but does make it seem strange that they were also unable to contact me.    Many thanks for any assistance

    • 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 am at my wits end with this debt spiral

feeling very desperate, not sleeping heart palpitations etc.

 

Am on a DMP with CCCS which is being paid each month at £200 against a total debt of £35k

which will take forever especially as half of creditors still applying interest.

 

One creditor Creation is being really difficult and has registered a CCJ against me.

Didnt receive the paperwork before judgement (really didnt!)

so they got CCJ by default

have now received a Notice of application to register a restriction against the land B136(CO).

 

Will they get my home, no equity in it and mortgaged to the hilt.

What do i do now.

 

In addition, i stupidly took out 2 payday loans last year in a crisis

and have got into a mess with them which i am trying to sort out

but cant involve CCCS as didnt realise (didnt read small print) that this was banned whilst on a DMP,

 

should have been obvious to me really i know so darent tell CCCS as i believe they will cancel my DMP.

 

Dont know how to move forward, cant see a solution at all.

 

Can anyone take a look from an uninvolved stance and help me plan my next move.

As you say that you didn't receive any Court paperwork about the CCJ then you can apply to set it aside.

 

Have a look at these links about Setting Aside a CCJ -

The CCJ was in November 2009,

i entered the DMP in January 09 and it has run ok except for a little blip

and i missed one payment to them in September 09.

 

They were good about it and started collections again in October 09.

 

I rang them as soon as i received the CCJ in the post

but they indicated nothing could really be done

and just started sending the monthly payments to the solicitors who had been dealing with the CCJ.

 

I also sent a letter to the solicitors telling them we hadnt received the paperwork

and just got a reply saying tough luck it is sent by the courts not us.

 

They are still getting payments through CCCS so why are they playing so nasty!

Not sure if this is the correct place to post so please excuse if it isnt.

 

Creation through Drydens solicitors are going for a final charging order tomorrow at 3.30pm.

This debt is for £1000 and has been paid through CCCS for the last year at £5 per month.

 

It hasnt stopped the solicitors though, they applied for and got a ccj by default as i didnt receive the papers.

I couldnt afford to have the ccj set aside so then got an iterim order and now this final charge hearing tomorrow.

 

All along i have corresponded with the solicitors asking them not to take this further but they have said at the present repayment the debt would take too long to repay so they need security.

 

It is my debt but our house is jointly owned and i have been reading on the internet that they will only get a restriction.

 

Also worried that if i challenge it and stop the order they will get nasty and go for bankruptcy or something.

We have 15 other creditors in total, been on a DMP for 1 year and everyone else is ok (ish) with us.

 

Any suggestions

Any advice anyone.

Have been trying to get my head around things for today. Think i have a few things in my favour ie

 

Debt is in my name but house jointly owned

10 plus additional creditors most of whom more indebted to

Daughter in college but longstanding kidney problems and acute hypertension

Son in sixth form doing A levels

 

I sent a letter to the court this hearing was originally scheduled for explaining that this was being paid through cccs but havent sent objections to this court (original court transfered to local court)

 

I wasnt aware that i had to send objections 7 days before until last night on reading other posts.

 

Can i take in written objections today?

Seems that most charging orders get agreed anyway but what restrictions should i request the judge set.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

tbh cccs havent helped at all and i am finding out stuff myself through the internet but feel grossly unprepared.

Thanks in advance

Just got back from the court

 

the judge refused Creations application to finalise the charging order.

He said that it was clear i was taking responsibilty for my debts and as there is no or very little equity in the house he was refusing it.

 

I pay Creation through the CCCS albeit at 5 pounds a month on a 1000 pound debt.

 

Obviously in one way the judgement is great

but whats the likelihood they will try to make me bankrupt instead out of pure spite.

 

Dont know if it would have been better to let the charging order stand.

 

Very confused now.

 

Any advice?

They won't make you bankrupt - it would cost them too much money! They'd have to lay out several hundreds of pounds to get, by the sound of it, very little in return.

 

We see the debt collectors as vindictive and vicious but that is crediting them with far to much 'feeling', the only thing that yanks their chain is MONEY - thats it MONEY.

Well done.

 

Debt Collectors really are the pits.

 

There is a way of getting your debts written off (and not with one of these management companies) and it not affecting your home.

There was change in the law.

I am sure it's on here somewhere but if I can find the link I'll pop back.

I am so glad to hear about this:D

 

Mine was slightly more complicated as I had not even been able to pay a sustainable or if you prefer a regular token payment, the debt was hiked by 3.5K to 16K by HFC and fortunately or unfortunately however you want to read it, there is potentially enough equity in our property to clear all our debts:(
