    • next time dont upload 19 single page pdfs use the sites listed on upload to merge them into one multipage pdf.. we aint got all day to download load single page files 2024-01-15 DBCLegal SAR.pdf
    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................
    • Hi,   I am not sure if I posted this already here but I don't think I did. I attach a judgement that raises very interesting points IMO. Essentially EVRi did their usual non attendance that we normally see, however the judge (for the first time I've seen in these threads) dismissed the notice and awarded me judgement by default because their notice misses the "confirmation of compliance" paragraph. in and out in 3 minutes (aside from the chat at the end with the judge about his problems with evri) Redacted - evri CPR loss.pdf
    • Just to update this. I did apply to strikeout and they did not attend the hearing. I won by defualt and the hearing lasted 5 minutes (court only allocated 15). The judge simply explained that the only matter he was really considering is if the Defendant could have any oral evidence to defend the claim. However he said he had decided that based on their defence, and their misunderstanding of law, and their non attendence he did not think they had any reasonsable chance so he awarded me SJ + Costs on the claim form + the strikeout fee. Luckily when I sent the defendant the order I woke up the next day to a wire trasnfer for the full sum of the judgement

    • 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.

Going back to National Finance, when i spoke with Russell on the phone regarding all of this i asked him if National Finance was his company and he said yes it was??

 

Well, when Russell called me in Sept/Oct following my insistence that Natasha stop using my lettehead, I referred to Frank and he said

 

"Who is Frank?"

 

I was puzzled and could not believe that even though he was in a relationship with Natasha (although he always called me on the pretence that it was in his capacity as owner/whatever of Metropole Chambers and did not admit until the end that he was her protector).

 

Did he really not know who Frank was when his building had an office let to Natasha where Frank used to visit regularly?

 

There are inconsistencies here.

 

Why are there so many inconsistencies in the information that Natasha and Russell are/have been providing?

 

Please Natasha/Russell don't go running off to your mate in Metropole Chambers who operates as a solicitor because this is not slander. On this forum we are trying to put together the jigsaw pieces to a very confusing puzzle.

 

If National Finance is a Spanish company, then the letterheads going out should not in any way suggest to the public that the company is UK registered by having an English version of the Spanish company name. It is unheard of.

 

Very importantly, if Kubic Investments Ltd was trading under the name National Finance as

 

Kubic Investments Ltd t/a National Finance

 

then irrespective of the fact that Kubic Investments Ltd held an MOJ licence, then the trading name National Finance has to be registered to MOJ under the Kubic Investments Ltd MOJ number. This is a requirement.

 

So, all trading names of a company must be registered with MOJ. Was National Finance?

 

 

Can anyone shed light on this?

Caroline, metropole chambers appears a busy place;)

 

 

Well, isn't it just?

 

Ooh, let's be careful, Russell's mate may just send us a letter threatening to sue us!!!!! Funny, really, because his solicitor mates usual clients are animals, no really. He is referenced in the Horse and Hound!!

:roll::???:;-)

Hi all,

 

Was pointed to this site this morning as I too have been taken for a ride by FG, to the tune of £2,400.

 

Am going to speak to Ipswich Fraud Squad and give them all the information I have.

 

Just don't know where to turn now. Stopped paying my 3 CC's (on the advice of Kubic) about 8mths ago and have been chased by various debt collection agencies for the last 3-4mths. Strangely my Experian report shows no sign of the CC's I owe money to, although I suspect it's just a matter of time until they re-appear.

 

Have just spent the last hour or so reading the 31 pages of this thread, some interesting stuff being discussed, along with some rather childish and irritating sniping between one or two posters. Who do I believe? :???:

good for you, I would have done the same thing!!

 

Thanks for the support posters. I am feeling the love.

 

I told someone yesterday, I have been calling upon my angels for help to unravel this and to understand how someone as decent as myself could get her clients messed up in this.

 

I just did not expect my angels to act so fast and as effectively!

:)

 

P.S Ask your angels for help and they will. They can't help us if you don't ask. When they do help, thank them.

Hi Chantry and welcome to CAG.

 

Yes it all seems daunting and it is but the other members will keep you positive as they are all in the same boat.

 

May I suggest that you start a new thread and explain who has been mithering you and at what stage your at, that is probably going to be difficult as you have no way to contact FG etc. but do try to explain.

 

Cheers

 

Mr W

Regards..Mr Worried :)

Thanks for the welcome Mr.Worried.

 

To be honest I have absolutely no idea what stage I am at. Have scanned and emailed all letters from debt collectors over to Natasha, but as I have no files I don't know where I stand. Will start a new thread soon with all the info I have and see if anyone out there can help

Dear All,

 

I am based in Spain and another unfortunate victim. After being introduced to Frank by a contact of mine I met him in my contacts office around early November 2009. He talked a good game but my initial thoughts and gut feeling was this guy is just another conman which i had heard about and come across in Spain before.

 

I left the meeting thinking if something seems too good to be true then usually it is.

 

Anyway after many calls from my contact, Skype messages and emails convincing me that Frank was a good guy and that Frank was doing a good job for him and that his next credit card payment said 0, I decided to pay the €600 to the Spanish Solbank Kubic Account in early December 2009 for my car loan claim: -

 

Name = Kubic

Bank = Sol Bank

IBAN: ES1600815279350001062311

SWIFT: BSABESBB

 

Well since that time not a lot happened, when i finally got hold of Frank which was on the same day as my next car loan payment was due (late January 2010 he told me everything was processing and the lender was aware of the claim and i should stop making payments from now on which i did.

 

After about a week i had endless calls from private number chasing the payment, i contacted Frank about this and he said he would call the legal department and get the calls stopped which of course never happeded.

 

After another week i made the decision to make the payment as the last thing i wanted was a credit problem and could sense something was not correct.

 

I then had correspondance with Elizabeth Rees and it all seemed to be again progressing but after calling her and hearing her answer machine message today i realise it is a lost cause.

 

Reading some of the other posts i feel €600 is not too much too lose but am more angry with myself for not listening to myself in the first place.

 

I have also warned Solbank about this and also forward the forum to Solbank.

Hi, my mother was also scammed by FG! over £5000.

 

I thought when she told me, it was too good to be true and it was!

 

I checked on google for the company's website, before she even handed over any money, and it still is a holding page only, a picture of a few houses and they even spell the company name..Kubic and Kubik...two different spellings?!? says it all.

 

So, firstly the website was a big give away for being a dodgy company.

 

However, id heard many different companys offering a similar service, one even on a local radio! sgr or kiss fm, So it swayed in the decision to give it a go.

 

Anyway current situation.. it appears all of the correct people have been contacted.. police/companies house etc.

 

My mum saw Citizens advice..doesnt look gd, the people owed money will want their money at all costs.

 

My advice, is to start paying money back asap on your loans, minimal amounts if you can, as its highly unlikely no money will be seen again that was given to FG.

 

Id advise you to contact a Citizens advice member, also how about looking at taking FG to a small claims court, under £5000.

 

How the police can say FG has done nothing wrong is beyond a joke! im sure they will find something out? but does the guy at the police has the necessary qualifications to do his job? he is no solicitor/lawyer after all.

 

ALSO.. who is this dodgy solicitor who signed everyones paper work to say it was all above board? he needs reporting too!

 

To move the case on maybe someone should contact Watchdog? ask a solicitor, lawyer?

 

FG needs to be brought to justice.

 

And I actually recieved an email from FG from another Forum site he is on and still actively uses a couple of weeks ago. I pretended to be someone else (i wont give anymore details) but I would assume, he is in spain now, or will be soon.

 

If you want more details, oh how to contact him let me know. you could send him a message, i doubt he would reply.

Sorry to hear about your mother's situation.

 

Why did you think a solicitor was dealing with the paperwork?

 

Sorry to inform you but the person dealing with this was just an office clerk a year or so ago and not a solicitor.

 

We have all been fooled.

no but my mother was told by Frank that she had to sign an Affidavit form from a solicitor.. which he recommended.. and apparently is known in the area as very dodgy... so frank probably carried out alot of business through this solicitor.

I also had to sign an affidavit, but unlike your mother I chose a local one myself. Interestingly there were a second lot of affidavits which I was asked to sign and send off, but these were not witnessed by me taking into a solicitor as I was asked to just send them in and Kubics solicitors would sign them.

Been throught the affidavit route myself but I had to get both signed.

Did they then try and do the process on the CCA system?
