    • Thank you for taking your time and helping me on this. Would you recommend I also send a letter tomorrow to both BMW and Motonovo?

    • Please have a look at this draft letter. It is modelled on yours but I have cut out a load of the unnecessary information. Also, the responsibility lies with the finance company because the vehicle was brought on hire purchase. You send it to them and a copy to big motoring world.   Let us know if there's anything that you disagree with, which is wrong, which you think should be added

    • Thank-you @BankFodder, your statement is a correct understanding of my position and I agree, it is actually really what I was looking for in starting this thread, as I too believed that the maximum I could claim for is that which I sold it for, even though this was substantially below market value at the time. And so, this sold value is what I shall be claiming for + the other expenses. @dx100uk I get your point, but this is just not what I want to expose myself to. Unfortunately I was one of the unlucky ones to have my details stolen in the Peoples Energy hack, and in 2020 I discovered that those details had been used to take out car insurance, and that the insured was then involved in a collision and my details were dragged through the mud. Despite Aviva cancelling the claim and treating as though it never were, even though I have the letters from them to say that they have removed this claim from the insurance database, I still get refused insurance and credit products to this day until I send across the letter from Aviva which explains that I was a victim of fraud. So you'll forgive me for not jumping up and uploading my data to a server utility for which I have no control over its retention policy, or where the server is located globally, its legal jurisdiction, or its security protocols.

    • 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 posted my defense on the 21st December, and was told by the court that Howard Cohen had to reply to it within 28 days. I haven't as yet heard anything from them, however, i have received a Notice of transfer of proceedings to my local court and an Allocation Questionnaire to fill out.

 

I'll need tips on filling out this form, but for the meantime i am baffled as to how Cohen can just blatantly ignore me, and how i'm supposed to defend myself with no documents at all.

You might not recieve anything from HC they are notorious for filing late at the court,not supplying you with the information you need to defend.

I have in the past got the court to send me a copy of HC paperwork.

The worse thing is that the court/judges seem to let them get away with it.

Hi, if its been transferred then HC must have responded to the courts.

When you file your AQ, you need to include a "Draft order for Directions". This will force HC to supply the documents they refer to in the POC. This will be an order made by the judge.

On the 22nd February i received a wad of documents from Howard Cohen, included is;

 

-credit agreement

-statements

-default notice

-notice of assignment.

 

Also included is an 'Evidence of Means' form. They say in their letter that i should fill this out and return it, agreeing to monthly repayments and settling the case. They wanted this doing within fourteen days but i've missed that by a long time as i've been busy with studying and stuff.

 

I've also received a letter from my local court requesting me at a hearing on the 27th April before the District Judge.

 

In a nutshell, i don't know what to do next. I don't wanna give up 'cause there's no way i'd be able to afford to pay Howard Cohen and then i don't wanna carry on defending if there's no way i'm gonna win and i'm just gonna be embarassed in court.

 

Help?!

Hi shane247.

 

I'm assuming that this relates to this link >>> http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/legal-issues/239003-me-coward-cohen.html

 

So, the docs you received - is this in response to the Directions issued following AQs? As for Evidence of Means is this an Income and Expenditure form? If so, only a court can ask you for this btw, not HC.

 

Without going through your other posts is there any point/s in particular that you're confident about defending on? Do you have your original DN?

 

The hearing on the 27th - is this a Case Management Conference?

 

A bit more info,

 

thanks,

 

M

Hey MandM.

 

This case is the same one as the one in the link.

The documents recieved are what i asked for in the AQ, yes. The Evidence of Means is indeed an income/expenditure form.

 

The letter about the hearing doesn't mention a 'Case Management Conference', it just says that 'the matter be listed for directions on 27 April 2010 with a time estimate of 15 minutes'.

I have a hearing at my county court on Tuesday for my Howard Cohen case and i am not prepared at all. I feel like i've gone into this without thinking about it enough and now i don't know where to start. :( They've sent me all the documents i've asked for and they've sent me their defense aswell and i just feel completely hopeless. Any advice?

So this is a directions hearing listed for just 15 minutes.

Basically its for the Court to decide how things should proceed and its an opp for you to raise anything (as with the other side)

 

What do you feel you need help with ?

Well, i think i've lost already, in all honesty. I decided to defend the case because i knew there was no way in hell i could afford to pay what i owe and because i read lots of success stories with Cohen. However, after searching high and low 'round the house i've found a default notice and a notice of assignment and it looks like i've buggered it all up.
