    • Hello, Just to check I understand things right, he moved to a nursing home, you then kept paying the rent for a period of time whilst you sorted his belongings. You have asked to give notice and asked for backdated payments of rent from when you first asked which went ignored? They are still taking rent payments.   Have I understood correct?   If I've got anything wrong please correct me.
    • I contacted Sanctury housing in August 2023 after informing them my father in law who had Dementia had moved into a Nursing home December 2022. We kept the flat for 8 months until such a time we could accomodate some of his furniture that my wife wanted to keep. I contacted them in August 2023 to let them know the situation by email as I was the named person that could speak on his behalf. I informed them that we had left it to late for POT and were seeing a solicitor for Deputyship of his financies. I asked them what information would they need in order to give notice on the flat and we could provide details of his condition and nursing home. This went ignored I left it a month and then called them October 2023. I was promised a call back from a manager over the next few days. This never happened and it was end of November when I contacted them again and they had no record of me calling them. I explained the email and again I was told the local manager to the area would call me. This never happened and I ended up emailing them in January 2024 with a copy of the email from August. Again this went ignored and I had explained to them that we couldn't just go to the bank and stop the DD as we had tried. This email again went ignored. I then had a letter written to our home address in February asking us to get in contact with them (local manager) as they were concerend nobody was living in the flat. He had an email address so I copied in the last 2 emails to say I had been trying to give notice since August 2023. I also stated that I would like the rent that was paid from August 2023 refunded back to his account as I had officially tried to give notice then and it went ignored. He replied to us about wanting to look at the flat then notice could be given once he had contacted the nursing home to confirm he was actually living there now. Notice was giving for the 22 March 2024 and this would be when rent would stop and no further payment would be taken by this point. The fact I asked to be back dated went ignored. I have since noticed on 2 banks statement for April and May that they are still taking Rent payments of £501 from his bank. Further to this which seems very strange. He was with Eon Next for his utility bill again we were having problems getting this stopped as they needed a named person on his account which there wasn't one despite me managing his online account for him. I didn't check the email address that often that I used to set it up and went to check as noticed the credit he had built up with not living there was all getting refunded in February. The email said £600 would be refunded to his account with a (sorry you are leaving us message) but how can he leave as nobody but himself had access to speak with them. I also noticed the lady in the flat above him had a letter from her bank sent to his address with his address details but his name which was dated 4th March well before we had given notice and it said (thank you for giving us your new address details) we have set all this up for your account.   So Sanctuary housing must have been aware he wasn't living there from the ignored emails for the lady above to start changing address details to move into his flat before the housing manager had even got in contact to ask if anyone was living there. What I basically want to know his do we have any legal standing to claim the rent back from when I first contacted them in August 2023? There is roughly £3000 to come back

    • 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.

Oh dear - I've just realised that I may have put the claim into the wrong address!

I sent my initial DPA letter, Prelim letter, and letter before action to a PO Box in Leeds address - all of which were answered, so they were getting them!

I always meant to change the address to the Trinity Road address when I saw you were all using that address, and forgot, so my claim went in to the PO Box address again. Do you think this matters? They replied to the first three letters, so muct be getting them. I just don't know about the court claim.

As far as I'm aware, as long as it is going to a Halifax owned property then thats fine

Abbey - owed £3260 - Paid up.

 

Barclays owed £2500 - Paid up.

 

Halifax, Mint & Egg - next on the hit list

 

Dont click on the scales - I'm quite proud of my little red dot! - As the little red dot has gone - click away!!!!

Another update - Halifax have charged me three more £39 this week, and I am just about to start the process all over again, for those, but in the meantime, they have ignore everything, so I have phoned moneyclaim, and they have said just to use the Trinity Road address for the next step, which is sending the bailiffs in!!!!

So I am doing that now!

Funny you should say that - my husband's a journalist, and is on the phone right now trying to find out exactly when the bailiffs will be going!

I did just phone Halifax head office, to give them a last chance to pay, as they have ignored everything, and I would rather have my money that do this. The woman was so rude an patronising, and kept 'telling me off' for incurring the charges. She also said that they had written to me in April offering me £300. I didn't receive that letter, but pointed out that I wouldn't have accepted it anyway. She seemed to think that because I hadn't responded to this letter, the bailiffs can't go in. Is this true? I have requested the warrant now, but if theb ailiffs can go in, is there any way Halifax can still refuse to pay? I'm getting the last minute nerves - ridiculous isn't it? Thanks.

They reassured me a bit - thanks. I can't find many people who have had to get to this stage. Do you think it's personal?? Ha ha.

Although that last one - the newspaper article - looked like he still might not get his money, even if the bailiffs go in!?! Oh well - just wait and see I suppose...

Excellent! The only thing is I've just read Bankfodder's advice about waiting for seven days after judgement. i couldn't find it anywhere on this site this morning, so phoned the money claim court service, and she just said do it as soon as possible, so they've only had a day! Oh well, i did call and warn them, and they didn't sound too bothered.

Hey - well I just checked the case on the money claim site, and it's still showing as the warrant has been 'requested' but I've been told that it will show as issued by tomorrow, and then I can phone the local court (in Halifax) and find out when the bailiffs are going in - will be one day this week.

Meanwhile - Bankfodder seems to think that Halifax may have accidentally let this one get this far (probably too busy with all the claims!) so just in case, at 10 am today, I sent an email to their customer relations just explaining that a charge is due to come out of my account tomorrow, and that if it does, then as soon as this claim is over, I assure them that I will start all over again. I then wrote that the bailiffs are due to go in this week, that I intended to get lots of media attention, and gave them the claim no for their reference. I received a personal reply in less than ten mins, saying she would look into it, but heard nothing since. At least they can't claim they knew nothing now! I'll let you know as soon as I know about the bailiffs. Cheers!
