    • 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. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all. Signed I am the Defendant - I believe that the facts stated in this form are true XXXXXXXXXXX 01/05/2024   Defendant's date of birth XXXXXXXXXX   Address to which notices about this claim can be sent to you

    • 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 think I am really going to push the court action.

 

If I request that the incident be heard in court, surely they cant keep threatening me?

 

I agree. After this happened I had a good look at the T&C. They are VERY ropey!

 

They shouldn't show funds received, funds cleared, funds successfully transferred to your bank account so easily.

 

When the guy arrived and the money was in my bank account, I couldn't turn around and say, oh yeah. Im not giving you the xbox.

Ok, now that I am convinced it is not an April fools joke, lets see what we can do to help....

 

Timescale? You sold on what date? They paid on what date? You transfered the payment out of paypal towards your bank on what date? They collected the goods on what date?

 

How soon after collecting the goods was the payment 'cancelled'? On what grounds did the payment get stopped? Did the buyer claim non receipt of the goods? Did paypal discover a stolen card used for payment?

 

Sorry for so many quaetsions. The more info the better.

Indeed, we need all the above info to help you.

 

 

I had something similar happen.

 

Paypal will freeze your account soon, but will wait 3 months before calling in a DCA to harrass you. This gives you enough time to get this ****** into court but there is no time to lose.

 

I take it you have his address- send him a 14 day letter before action for the price of the xbox. We will do one for you if you want.

 

After 14 days, if he doesnt remimburse you, start a small claim for the xbox price plus the court fee- again we will sort out the wording.

 

Its quite straight forward.

 

DO NOT waste your time gnashing your teeth at Paypoo.

 

Its the ****** buyer who has defrauded you.

It was cancelled about 30mins after collection. They paid on the date of collection, about 30mins before. I was returning home from work. Paypal showed payment completed. I withdrew the money to my account whilst stuck in traffic on the same day payment was recieved, paypal showed completed. The individual arrived, money was clear goods taken.

 

Paypal emailed to say the buyer has asked his/her bank to reverse payment.

 

ID provided by individual collecting the same as that of the paypal account holder.

Ok, a small claim would appear to be straight forward as you have his address to serve documents.

 

Your POC could draw the judge's attention to the clear and deliberate fraud perpetrated by the buyer and ask that the court pass this info to the appropriate authorities, should the court feel it appropriate... ;-)

Normally I am very thorough with things. Most of this was carried out over my mobile phone.

 

It just so happens, on the day this happened, I busted a guy for thousands of pounds worth of stolen property. It was a delight returning them to the rightful owners.

 

Once I get home, and your with your family, your mindset changes. Work is at work, home is at home. I think this is what is grinding me!

The April fool thing is funny. Some of the property I recovered from the previous post was from a well know Celebrity. I had to contact them regarding returning some items to them. They thought it was an April fool too! It was a nightmare trying to convince them I actually had recovered their stolen property!

 

I didn't even notice it was April the 1st!

Ok, that all makes it easier to work through.

 

Firstly, I do not believe this is theft but deception. What reason did the buyer give paypal for reversing the payment? Have you spoken with paypal on the phone at all?

 

I would ring them and explain that you are a serving police officer and will be taking up criminal charges against this individual for deception. See what they say and can do about this.

 

Do you have any proof that he collected the item? Witnesses, signed receipt etc?

Noom, the most infuriating thing is, I had a criminal on my own doorstep. My gloves where off, I handed over my property to him in good faith and let him walk away believing that the transaction was genuine.

 

The good thing is, I never forget a face. I am trying to get address details from paypal and ebay.. Funny enough, its impossible. Eaby replied saying, we appreciate its easier to talk on the phone but we do not practice this facility!!:-o

 

 

 

Through all my transaction with paypal over the past couple of years, I must have payed at least £400 in fees!

Clamping, yes. He signed a piece of paper. stating the goods had been collected. (currently off for fingerprints)

 

Paypal keep deferring my call asking for it in writing. I emailed, they have not responded.

 

I have a team looking into it locally. I need to be very careful not to compromise the investigation. As the Victim, my stance has to remain somewhat distant. :(

 

This goes very much against my character!

Ill give it a go shortly.. Must clean the floor, just trying to sell our house as well as everything else!

2 problems with that.

 

1. You will not get the house number, just the postcode.

2. It is probably a false address.

 

You need to talk with the fraud team at Ebay. Try 0208 8080 2105 and ask to be put through to fraud. The fact you can legally tell them you are Sergeant XXXX of Metropitan Police should assist you to get through quicker.

 

They are VERY helpful when pushed.

 

I understand your predicamant with victim and serving officer. I will say no more.

 

I still wonder what was the reason given to Paypal for reverisng the payment?

Paypal wont be able to fight this as you have no proof of delivery. They will reverse the payment and you will have to reimburse Paypal, (otherwise you wont be down any money and thus have no cause of action for your small claim)

 

Your action now should be- start small claim to force him to reimburse you, and of course, make his life as unpleasant as you can...

 

A charge under the Fraud Act - obtaining pecuniary advantage by deception- would be nice.

My concern is how paypal make this so easy! (for suspects)

 

As they walk hand in hand with ebay, they are an open marking for [problematic]/criminals.

 

I am sure I am one of millions!!.
