    • OK.  All of us here have made mistakes in legal dispute - the important thing is to learn from the mistakes and get it right the next time.  So for future reference - 1.  Not a good idea to ignore a Letter of Claim.  The PPCs are on the look out for people who don't reply, as they think there is a good chance that the person won't reply to the claim form either, gifting them an easy default win. 2.  Not a good idea to fail to send a CPR request.  As they usually don't reply this gives you a chance to wallop them in your WS for not producing the correct legal permissions. 3.  Not a good idea to play your cards so early in your defence.  They will know how you mean to defend and will prepare accordingly to rubbish your arguments. Anyway, spilt milk and all that ... So what arguments do you plan to put in your WS?  You can't say "a bloke told me I could park there" as your opponent will just ridicule you for believing a load of baloney and not bothering to read the car park signage. I see you have questioned their right to bring claims under their own name (defence point 1) which is a start - but unfortunately you can't show them up for refusing to show their contract with the landowner following a CPR request. Who is this mysterious owner of the car park then who gave the permission and can they be involved? Your arguments about POFA (4) will fail as you've outed yourself as being the driver in your defence (3). You question their signage (17, 20).  Good.  Have you got photos of the rubbish signage? I'm afraid you don't seem to have real defence arguments that will stand up in court. dx is right - let's see the original PCN and any correspondence with UKPC.

    • 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.

No, some of use are looking at the last 13 years as the hell of a damn sight better than the catastrophic years before that. Some of us don't suffer from selective memories, which magically erase anything which happened before 1997 :-(

 

Still, as I said: convince me. You're still resorting to the smear campaign instead of selling me the good points of DC. I'm listening. :-)

 

We all have selective memories when it comes to politics. In your book it means: Conservative = bad, Labour = Good. For me it's the other way around. Go back to the Labour government of the 1970's and it wasn't that good was it? I can't remember what the inflation rate was but I expect people earning a fair bit can remember what the taxation rate was (98p in the pound in case you've forgotten). I can remember the scenes of uncollected rubbish and unburied bodies too. Yes, I can also remember the 3-day week under Edward Heath - pompous prat that he was (only an opinion).

 

I think you'll find that smear campaigns are the preserve of the Labour party/government (remember Rose Addison and David Kelly?).

 

The important thing is that Brown will soon be leaving Downing Street. He won't be forgotten, not for a long time until we've paid for his legacy ("Mr Cameron/Clegg, I bequeath you £167 trillion of debt" or whatever it is). I've got a bottle of bubbly on ice, just waiting for the moment.

 

We'll never agree. Before you know what we'll be back to what happened in the 1950s. The whole point as I think we both agree, is that we vote for who we believe will do best by us. For you it's Labour, for me it's not.

 

What else is there to it?

 

Regards.

 

Fred

Some mistake there BB - it's been on ice since 19:50. It's not even cold yet!

I have to disagree, again it's your hatred which rules your head:

 

The important thing is NOT Brown leaving Downing Street, the important thing is who will decide on Britain's policies for the next 4-5 years. Brown is but a man. Any of the coalitions being discussed right now, THAT's important. How they will shape the future political landscape, that's important. This is where listening to outside specialists should be important (and yes, I do mean the IMF.) Unfortunately, I fear that won't happen. :-(

I take it that the IMF agrees with Brown's way of thinking then. I agree with the Businessmen who don't want to see Brown's 'tax on jobs'. Like I said, for me, the important thing is that Brown will soon be gone and with it this awful government.

 

You don't know what rules my head and it is very arrogant of you to presume that you do. Ultimately though, I suspect that it is the same as you - like I've said repeatedly, I want was is best for me and my family. That of course includes how best to deal with Labour's debt legacy. I don't believe that purpose is best served by having a proven liar and spendthrift as Prime Minister. Ergo: Bye bye Gordon and bloody good riddance.

How many times do we have to say that THE BANKERS CAUSED THE FINANCIAL CRISIS, NOT THE LABOUR PARTY :p

THE BANKERS CAUSED THE FINANCIAL CRISIS, NOT THE LABOUR PARTY.

But, the Labour Party let it happen!

Because, the Banks were/are not properly regulated:

FSA;

OFT;

ICO. (not forgetting the industry friendly FOS).

 

Do you really think that the LOSERS Coalition could succeed?

Answer: NO.

 

Best way forward will be with David Cameron and, quickly!

I didn't hear 'order order' by the blues to reel in the Bankers over the last 20 years, if they had more people would have faith in the T's. A message has been sent by the people which is Stop, look and listen.

Good luck with a Tory government then. Don't come crying here if they bring back debtors prisons.

Well here's one way of looking at it:

 

64% of the voters didn't vote for Cameron.

71% of the voters didn't vote for Brown.

77% of the voters didn't vote for Clegg.

100% of the voters didn't vote for a hung parliament or any kind of pact.

 

Now we're in for a little taste of what the future holds if we get PR.

The 'Loser's Coalition is doomed to fail.

Therefore, let us hope that DC & NC can sort matters out, for the sake of the country.

 

We need stability;

all eyes will be on Cleggy tomorrow, especially The City;

otherwise, we will all suffer financially...

 

Time to put you politics aside and think of Great Britain!

True. None of us got what we voted for. For me the only crumb of comfort is that the Brown motorcade will shortly be leaving Downing Street for the last time. He can now go back to Scotland and vote on matters affecting England. Whereas .... (another Labour legacy).
