    • Commentary June 2024 WWW.ELECTORALCALCULUS.CO.UK Interesting article about just how bad it could be for the Tories.  Also Tories could be hoping on Reform not having candidates in many seats, as they were not ready.  
    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?

    • 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.

Having read all the comments on the kensington letter it seems to me that the structure of the charge merits comment.In my case the charge was expressed as 6% of the redemption sum in the the first three years of the mortgage and nothing thereafter.Purely arbitrary and very difficult to present as a rational estimate of the loss they might suffer. Also even at a discounted interest rate for the first three years,their rates were still above the regular market.Their letters are intimidating but mostly bluff.It must be called

On the grounds that:

 

1. there was no breach of contract because Jamorgan was exercising a right contained in the contract to terminate early.

2. The term was not subject to the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations because it related to the adequacy of the remuneration or price.

3. Kensington were entitled to their legal costs under the indemnity clause contained in the mortgage.

 

The issue of whether the charge amounted to a penalty did not arise because there was no breach of contract.

Hi i dont know if this is any use in claiming back these nasty erc's, but Tom Brennan the barrister whose taking natwest to court, is using a different approach to claim his bank charges maybe this could be used for erc's

No, it has no bearing on ERC's whatsoever.

Hi Jamorgan

 

Still watching with bated breath. We had to sell our house, as I told you before, to avoid repossession, but if we hadn't had to pay the ERC we might have had something to put down on something else, Good luck

I hope we can get some justice for you too Blidge.

 

Just recieved a letter from Drydens solicitors

 

Please note that unless we recieve your satisfactory proposals to repay the judgement debt by 4pm on the 26th April 2007, our client will have no alternative but to enforce the judgement debt through the court.

 

A couple of days ago I recieved a letter from Drydens (for the secound time) requesting, could they have a copy of the transcript

There having a laugh!

 

Not sure what to do now with this

any thoughts

My thoughts are if you are appealing the the jdgement is in dispute anyway, and could be overturned, but this is costs awarded on their indemnity so even if you win the appeal you could still be liable for their costs?

Dunno how best to advise you here - hopefully zoot will. No doubt she will be along later.

Jamorgan..

how about creating a "fighting fund" for everybody concerned when they are taking kensington to Court???

this fund can be used to help people to continue their cases even if there was a risk of costs being awarded against them.. in most cases,the judge would not order these costs as long as the refunds are below £5000.- as we all know,therefore the risk is minimal...

 

what does everybody say??

 

consider this ; if everybody who had been hard doe by kensington paid only £10.--each for this fund,we shall have more than enough to represent everybody and believe me this will put the scares up the Big Boy! and many similiarly featured other companies too!

what do you reckon..worth a shot???

my £10.- ready when you are!

 

keep the faith.

R.D.

Indemnity for costs was never intended to protect mortgage lenders from the consequences of unlawful or unfair practice. It was introduced to protect the funds of ordinary society members before they became banks.

 

My view is that you should link unlawful penalty charges together with the ERC as one claim. If you establish that the charges are unlawful then you argue that your contract/agreement has been breached by the lender. Therefore the indemnity clause no longer applies
