    • Page 33 general conditions  "Your duties You must contact us as soon as reasonably possible and provide all the information,  documents, evidence and help we need to settle your claim or pursue a recovery." Some policy wordings are more specific than others. But even in this policy example, this Insurer may decide not to offer renewal, if they are not informed of a potential claim, if they find out from third party first. It is your risk to take. Do nothing and you may never hear anything further or the third party armed with your registration number makes a claim and your Insurers are contacted. Then your Insurers see you as someone who is careless.  
    • Good evening, The court date for this is 3rd June and I've decided I will defend in court. Following some very interesting happenings in my other claim at court the other day (thread will be updated after this one) I am certain I want to defend this not because I'm confident of it's success, but rather I want to experience the day and press on my belief (I know it's only a belief) that a copy of DN and NOA's themselves, is not proof of serving, which MUST have taken place. Much better evidence of serving, would just be proof of postage or signature of recipient with the correct date, even without the letter copies themselves. Their evidence in exhibits is not strict proof. Law of Property Act 196(4) "Any notice required or authorised by this Act to be served shall also be sufficiently served, if it is sent by post in a registered letter........." Isn't a 'registered letter' proof of postage/receipt (signature)? It might not have mileage, but its my first claim and I will be levelled up for experiencing it and trying. Meaning I can make more informed decisions on the numerous others pending within months. including claim #2 Thank you for helping me get this far, I've learned so much already and already making better decisions on accounts I don't have a thread for. I welcome discussion, thanks  
    • thats a good point. I've attached the policy but can't see anything about reporting accidents being mandatory. Unless I'm missing something?  this is only the policy document. But I can't see it being in any of the others (list below)?  Schedule & IPBY Shows the details you gave us when you bought your policy. Includes main and additional driver details, add-ons and excesses. Insurance Certificate Proof of your vehicle insurance. It shows who's covered, your vehicle use, and any cover exclusions. Insurance Policy Explains the terms and conditions of your cover. Credit agreement Outlines the terms, payments, and interest of your credit agreement. Important Information Document Outlines fees and charges, how your data is used, and how to ask for documents in different formats.

    • I've never thought they were reliable enough and stories like this just confirm what I thought. Tesla owner says car in ‘full self-driving mode’ failed to detect a moving train WWW.AOL.CO.UK The close-shave in Camden, Ohio, was captured from multiple angles by the car’s cameras  
    • Hi,  I had a look through the credit agreement again, despite the signature looking legit I've noticed the below and wondered if they'd work as part of my defence, a)    The document headed ‘Your Personal Details’ has an office stamp which is unreadable. b)    On the above mentioned document under section ‘What to do next’ it states turn to agreement form on page 3 however 2 pages are provided. c)    The above mentioned document is unsigned & dated on behalf of Halifax PLC. d)    Two sets of documents headed ‘Credit Card Agreement Regulated By The Consumer Credit Act 1974’ was received containing dissimilar information. Under Parties to this agreement, both papers contain different name / address of the banking institute as well as Defendants address. This document is not on letter headed paper, the layouts are different, paragraph numbers differ as does the document content. Thanks again for any help.

    • 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 about to write my complaint letter also. I am willing to join up and make a group complaint.

 

If you read my post you'll see the fun I'm having with CL Finance & Cohens.

 

I received the letter from Cohens stating a Judgement was against me, and to pay (quite funny really) the full amount of the debt every month... or else! Also a few months later a statement from CL Finance arrived with Solicitors fees, Post judgement fees etc which increased the debt by nearly £800. No judgement exists.!

And this despite they assured the SRA that they would tighten up their procedures..........:roll:

I have just received my reply to my complaint against HC. The SRA are building a case file against them (now you know Cohens). So now is the time to get your complaint in. Also, so that this is not just a 'oh yes we are dealing with this and have added you details to the pile' then nothing gets done, everyone who has complained needs to diarise their response and then keep following up until action has been confirmed.

 

When I have finshed wirth my case I will be studying further and seeking compensation for the distress and costs involved in me having false letters from Cohens. A certain production company is working their way in and will be uncovering a lot of behind the scenes dealings... or are they!?!?

I complained to HM Courts, regarding Cohens abusing the system by making claims without having all (or indeed, any) of the documents necessary to substantiate a claim, which implied that they were using the system purely as a tool to make people pay. They said that Cohens were not abusing the system !!!

Did you submit your complaint on form EX343A?

 

Not applicable in my case, I was complaining about Cohens' abuse of the system which isn't covered by this form,.

Should have pushed the court more Mightacorn, from what you say the court accepted cohens "Notice of Discontinuance" unless it is placed upon the court and the defendant under form N279, it isn't worth the paper its written on, Judge should have known that, when a N279 is served correctly the judge can award costs for unreasonable behaviour, stacks against cohen in your case.

The court I was in accepted the discontinuance from Cohens and awarded me costs (not a large amount but enough thank you).

 

The complaint I made to the Courts was not just about my case, but pointing out that I could prove abuse of the system by Cohens in lots of cases, where Cohen made Claims without substantive documents. The Courts didn't want to know, but fortunately the SRA took my complaint (and others) seriously and are investigating Cohens.
