    • 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?
    • The neighbour's house is built right on the boundary so the side of their house is effectively the 'wall' in our garden separating the two properties. It's a three storey house and so the mortar poses a potential danger to us. Because of the danger, we have put up an interior fence in our garden to ensure we don't risk mortar dropping on us. That reduces the garden by 25% which is not only an inconvenience, but it's the part of the garden where we had lined up contractors to install a patio and gazebo which we will use for our wedding reception in less than 2 months. We have spoken to the neighbour's caretaker who is on the case, has spoken with a roofer and possibly a scaffolding company, but there are several issues. They don't seem to understand the urgency. As long as there is a risk of falling mortar, we can't carry out any work in the garden, and unless they hurry up, we're looking at cancelling our wedding as it's not viable to book a venue because we can't use our own garden! Also, they want to put the scaffolding up in our garden which would be ok with us if it was a matter of a few days and they hurried up, but there is a tree (most likely protected by the conservation area), so most likely they can only reach part of the roof with the scaffolding if they put it up in our garden. We suggested a roofer with a cherry picker but they seem to want to use a company they've used before. Any and all comments, suggestions, advice is more than welcome.  PS. does it make any difference that the neighbour is a business (ltd) and not a private dwelling?

    • 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.

if the case has been struck off by court,,,,does that mean egg bank chase me any more.

or does it mean they can still pursue it, and take me to court again???

 

The case has been thrown out... they dont normally get two bites of the cherry but they can appeal against the decision of the court and comply with the instructions they previosuly ignored. It would be down to a judge to decide whether it was just that they have a 2nd chance when they ignored the court the first time.

 

I would say chances are they wont appeal but there are no guarantees I'm afraid. They have a set time to appeal the decision by the court.. usually 14 days and anything out of that time would make it harder for them still.

 

For now I'd relax and after 14 days I'd relax even more :-D

its been over 3 weeks now, since then egg has contacted me,asking if i was willing to settle for £1000, if so they need more info work etc

also been informed egg is now owned by barclays

 

Well there is a reason they are offering to settle for 1k on a 6k debt isnt there :-)

 

Did they mention the court case at all, threaten to take you back to court? Who was BC's client? Who was taking you to court

nothing, no mention of anything.

All I know is , got a call out of blue stating, Hi Mr xxxx you offered £1000 as a settlement on so and so date, how soon can you come up with that.

Took my budget sheet details, and said would come back to me.

That was 2 weeks ago

 

the company was DLA Piper

at one stage they were arguing over their costs etc.

 

Also I have notheard from them either.

Ok, just read back both threads... you know there is something dodgy about the agreement when they pass it around so much :)

 

Basically you have been taken to court for this debt by the then owner... they didnt comply and the case was thrown out.. they missed the normal deadline to appeal and would need to give very very very good reasons to a judge why the claim should be re-instated.

 

So it looks like this debt will continue to be sold and chased by other DCA's basically... but and this is the good part... BC has spoilt the apple cart for all other owners of this debt as its been the subject of a court case.

 

Thats why the debt repayment offer was now suggested and they are agreeable, cos they cant take you to court for it anymore :-) Beware tho that they can still frag up your credit file and phone and chase you but so long as you dont acknowledge the debt in writing or make a repayment it'll go stat barred in 6 years from the last acknowledgement/payment made.

 

If they ring again I would tell them to put anything they have to say in writing as you dont deal with financial matters on the phone... when they write you can send a nice short sweet letter stating its been subject to a court claim which was struck out and therefore they can whistle dixie for the debt.

yep great news here.

 

ell spotted this a year ago.

 

egg and that DCA have really played their last cards there...........basically begging you to pay them.

 

there are lots of debt threads on here where 'discounts' are offerd

 

they all go no-where

 

it'll be a paperwork error or

more than likely

 

unlawful charges and mis-sold ppi issues.

 

if you really want to run salt in their wounds, then start a reclaim for the unlawful fees and interest

and the ppi if you've got it there.

 

and as the debt has been sold, these reclaims will go to you pocket!

 

intersting scenario...

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

No I wouldnt settle it, I'd be happy with them trashing my credit file as I dont wish to use credit again... others may disagree and see the 1k a small price to pay for complete peace of mind but you would need to ensure that they dont sell on the rest of the outstanding balance to someone else and that your payment is received in full and final settlement... also they'll probably mark your credit file as partially settled so it'll look as bad as a default anyway.

 

At the end of the day they had a chance to take you to court and enforce the agreement and get possibly a charging order, they blew it and now whilst the debt may still exist, the chances of them taking you to court have decreased dramatically
