    • I googled "prescribed disability" to see where it is defined for the purposes of S.92. I found HMRC's definition, which included deafness. I don't  think anyone is saying deaf people cant drive, though! digging deeper,  Is it that “prescribed disability” (for the purposes of S.88 and S.92) is defined at: The Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1999 WWW.LEGISLATION.GOV.UK These Regulations consolidate with amendments the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1996...   ….. and sleep apnoea / increased daytime sleepiness is NOT included there directly as a condition but only becomes prescribed under “liability to sudden attacks of disabling giddiness or fainting” (but falling asleep isn't fainting!), so it isn’t defined there as a “prescribed disability”  Yet, under S.92(2)(b) RTA 1988 “ any other disability likely to cause the driving of a vehicle by him in pursuance of a licence to be a source of danger to the public" So (IMHO) sleep apnea / daytime sleepiness MIGHT be a prescribed disability, but only if it causes likelihood of "driving being a source of danger to the public" : which is where meeting / not meeting the medical standard of fitness to drive comes into play?  
    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.

    • 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.

Hi Hubby is having problems with MBNA & PPI . He was made redundant, we had notice of this so wrote to MBNA stating that as he has PPI insurance could he have a claim form sent and would they accept a nominal £5 per month until the claim could be sorted out. They cancelled the PPI insurance and cancelled his card, spoke to a guy there who admitted it was their fault and reinstated the ppi, then said rang constantly & said i'd lied and i'd cancelled it on his behalf when I referred to the letter and subsequent telephone call they denied and said it was lies. I've put in a cca request 1st time they denied i'd sent a cheque so i sent it again which they cashed , their customer complaints dept then got involved, PPI still hasn't paid out , they want his p45, p60 and all 52 pay slips for completed by the benefits office ( they have had copies of the AB11 form and redundancy notice , they have lost the copy of the redndancy notice but have the AB11 for , which was sent in the same envelope!!! Suggested to complaints that this PPi was misold as he can't claim despite being made redundant they say he can just needs to send in everything they ask for. Out of curiosity I rang the PPI company and asked what would be required if I was made redundant they said just redundancy notice and AB11 form . Hubby rang the PPI company and asked why they wanted extra info from him and they said cos they did . Can he claim PPI back due to this . He is now back in employment , although on a lot lower salary and we can afford the monthly repayments . PPi insurance wasn't taken out when the card was first issued but the complaints dept seems to think it was?and now they've put ppi back on the account they say they can't confirm when he first took it out shall I send a SAR as they have now put his account in default , I have already sent a reminder letter for the CCA after 15 days( recorded delivery as they cashed my cheque)

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Yes start with the SAR...links here....

 

Full SAR for ppi

 

Data Protection Act 1998 - Subject Access Request

make sure you ask for all of this...

 

You can be specific with what data you request although the Subject Access Request is really asking for everything. The Statutory fee is £10.00 Postal Order is fine but keep the details of the number for future reference. The post office will be able to confirm when it was encashed (just call 01246 542091 they will even send written confirmation if you request it) Send all correspondence by at least recorded to be signed for so you can track delivery through Royal Mail

 

You should request the following documents:

 

A true copy of your Consumer Credit Agreement with the Terms and Conditions that were applicable at the time you took the loan/card/mortgage.

 

A ‘demands and needs’ questionnaire.

 

Copies of all statements applicable to the loan/card/mortgage.

 

Copies of all correspondence that apply to you as a data subject ie letters, emails, faxes etc.

 

Copies of all recorded telephone calls or transcripts of the recordings.

 

Copies of any notes made by bank/loan company staff in their dealings with you as a data subject.

 

Do not be fobbed off by them citing issues such as relevant filing systems.

 

If they have any records/data on you as a data subject and it is held under your name, address, post code, account number/s or any other system where the data is identifiable to you then it is a relevant filing system. Even if it is a specific serial number on microfiche records and the serial number is applicable to you.

 

Once you have all of the relevant detail start your claim for mis-sold PPI to MBNA if you do not get a satisfactory response within 8 Weeks then you should submit a formal complain to the Financial Ombudsman Service who will deal with you complaint.

good luck

I have no legal training and the advice I offer is a matter of support. Before you commit to any Legal action you are advised to contact a qualified legal practitioner.

------------------------------------------------

Bank charge successes:

Halifax - Full settlement incl interest.

HSBC - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 75% of claim.

RBS - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 70% of claim.

2 ongoing claims for bank charges with HSBC with more to come. (Supreme Court ruling could have upset these claims) They did :mad:

PPI Successes

PPI 4 settlements on 9 loans. FOS involvement on 7 added on the 8 % Statutory interest another 30% to both.

2 claims settled in full with LV without FOS involvement.

2 claims settled in full with HSBC without FOS involvement

 

PPI Claims ongoing with:

Cap one Now with the FOS

Barclays. Paid up today 24/04/10 cheque received for over £4,500 and in the bank.

LTSB still have to decide on this as their SAR production was abysmal. Papers data mixed up documents missing etc

 

1 Complaint not upheld by FOS they said it was ICO issue. Complaint upheld by ICO. See this..

Post 290 from

***RBS PPI Claim Long fight but, WON***

 

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.

 

Keep at them. Do not give way and do not accept all they tell you, they will delay and stall for as long as they can to prevent repaying you your mis-sold PPI.

well SAR received just within dateso will now start ppi reclaim as hubby has never signed asking for it and the phone calls say he was told pre existing conditions weren't covered but nothing to say he accepted this .

 

Hi happybutskint:)

 

Just wishing you well with your claim! If it's anything like the one I did recently to them after a couple of their initial 'we're looking into your complaint' letters OH got a call from them (watch out for this as it will catch you unawares as it did Mr L), offering to refund the premiums paid.

 

It was much quicker than my previous MBNA claim which had to go through the FOS - so they appear to finally be getting the idea that these PPI policies were mis-sold en masse and doing something more positive about it!

 

They are terrible to deal with over the issue of interest though as they only like to pay 'associated interest' which usually amounts to very little :( So once again, be prepared to argue with them over this point.

 

Good Luck!
