    • and it will be also now written off under age related criteria anyway.
    • @dx100ukThanks for this! I'm still not clear if I'm facing more than 6 points on my license though. Can you explain any further please? When I accept the 2nd speeding ticket, will they just charge me £100 and 3 points, or will they be more severe consequences since that offense took place the following day of the 1st offense? Similarly, when I accept the 3rd offense, will they look at my record or just charge me with the £100 fine and 3 points? @Man in the middleI've been searching the forum and you seem very knowledgeable. Would you mind giving a look at my query please? Thanks in advance!!
    • Yes of course. That's why it says cc:: BIg Motoring World at the bottom. Don't imagine that this solves the issue. It doesn't. He not have to force the finance company and big motoring world to accept the rejection to give your money back. I suggest that you get the letter off tomorrow. And let us know what you hear but on Friday you should then send a threat to the finance company.   Have a look what I have said here about your options and read the whole thread as well.  
    • Been perusing the actual figures on the polls above wondering where the '16% claimed for deform comes from? I understand that there are 'weighted' end results based on secret calculations ...   Probably going to repeat this later, but remember that the ukip/brexit/reform/deform party has ALWAYS had poll speculation FAR better than their actual  performance at elections - by large margins. SO: The labor and Tory votes come largely from simply the people who say they will vote for them - sorted Lab 43% Tory 20%, with maybe another small 1-2% coming from the weightings of the 'not sures' Greens largely get what is declared from 'other' , although with another declared green bit from the 'pressed' question   So as the share of the voting displayed in 'other' granted to reform/deform is around 11%, where does the '16% too often being reported come from? Seems that reform has been granted as beneficiary of effectively ALL the don't knows and wont says, who when pressed didn't actually declare for someone else ... effectively adding 40%+ to their reported polling % - rather strange given their consistent under-performance compared to polling - or perhaps that is the cause of the higher rating eh?   Now I admit the possibility (probability?) of wingers being ashamed of declaring their support for the yuckey lemon end of the spectrum ... but surely  that should affect the 'Torys as well? Maybe the statisticians have simply weighted in that deform wingers are simply more likely to lie?   But - without 'weightings' and assumptions that faragits will get everything that isnt declared as a definite and unequivocal 'not that Piers Morgan' - reform is on around 11% it seems.   Add to that the history of polling a lot less than the hype - and the simple fact that faragit wingers seem to be spread across the country (presumably skulking in their moms spare room despite being 45+) and greens and lib dems seem to be community minded - I think two seats will be an epic result for farage. Hardly the opposition - far more raving wingnut party.   and importantly - Has farage got a home in clacton yet?

    • 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.

On Bank holiday monday I visited Bolton and parked on a Council Carpark that is managed by NCP. My daughter paid for a 4 hours parking ticket and placed it in the front passenger window when she was getting my grandchild out of the car.

 

When I returned at 14.30 I had been given a NCP Parking Contravention Notice...this had been placed at the side of my tax disc and therefore the attendant would have been able to see the P&D ticket

 

The infringment was for not clearly displaying a valid parking ticket. But I had and still have the P&D ticket I bought.

 

I think the reason I have been given a ticket is because it was not in the WINDSCREEN.

 

I am worried now ...should I Appeal but I keep reading that I should ignore the Contravention notice as the contract is with the driver which they would have to prove. If I appeal against the ticket then I would be admitting that I was the driver on the day .......WHAT SHOULD I DO ???

 

Please help - the 14 day reduced penalty is up soon :(

Is this a council ticket or PPC ? You text confuses them. if its council contract/driver issues not relevant - but neither is the ticket. if its council if the person appearing to the owner. Sounds like they stuck their ticket on to cover up yours - yes ?

i would appeal if the ticket was in the windscreen and clearly visible then they will have to prove that it wasn't visible. It's probably just an over zealous warden trying to hit their targets for the day.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Sorry for the confusion

 

I rang Bolton Council - they say this is a Private Parking ticket - there is no mention of Bolton Council on the PCN

 

My daughter put the pay and display ticket in the front passenger window - they put the PCN at the left of the windscreen next to my tax disc so they must have been on the left of the car and should have easily been able to see the one in the passenger window

 

Should I appeal or ignore?

Any chance you can scan and post the ticket up on here removing all ID/VRN,?

So......is everyones advice 'ignore'........I would honestly have paid the fine if I hadnt paid and displayed and my knee jerk reaction is to appeal as I have still got the P&D ticket that was bought but dont wasnt to open another can of worms because then I have admitted that I was the driver of the car.

 

Should I seek legal advice......would it be worth the cost?????????

 

HELP:confused:

So......is everyones advice 'ignore'........

It's by far the easiest (and most effective) way of dealing with PPC invoices

I would honestly have paid the fine if I hadnt paid and displayed and my knee jerk reaction is to appeal as I have still got the P&D ticket that was bought but dont wasnt to open another can of worms because then I have admitted that I was the driver of the car.

If you contact them at all, they will hound you all the more

Im am receiving exactly the paperwork described on your link ......must admit though its frightening ......even though I paid and displayed I have never been in this situation before ......I find that not been able to appeal properly very distressing ......I almost wish I could have taken this to a solictor and make NCP pay for the distress caused !!!!
