    • It just been delivered and ive had a live chat with p2g to get some proof of deliverey and they send me a picture of the parcel placed in a gas meter box which they class as a ' 'Safe Place'  and not placed into the hands of the buyer which is either a good thing as the buyer can claim he never received It so i can claim against p2g or a bad thing . Do p2g have coordinators when taking pictures and scanning of parcels ?  I know Royal Mail do ... I'm going to send the buyer a message and see what he says

    • Wow thats incredible. Thank you so much
    • If the purchaser denies having received it then sue P2G. If you simply don't hear anything more from the purchaser then you have the purchaser's name and address – and frankly for £48 I would go ahead and sue. As long as you have good proof of delivery then your chances of success are probably better than 95% and frankly the purchaser would probably put their hands up as they would effectively be being sued for the civil equivalent of theft. I wouldn't let it go if I were you. It would be a good exercise for you and gives you confidence the next time something comes up which is may be much more valuable
    • Thank you again Emmzzi for your insight. Not only did I do the work, but as a maths tutor delivering financial literacy workshops under the Govt Multiply project, the college were paid £400 for each student I recruited, which makes it an even bigger kick in the teeth! I spoke to Citizens Advice Bureau on Friday who advised me to go back to ACAS for advice and assistance, as ACAS are the experts in employment matters. They did also mention small claims court, as being more straightforward and less complex, but surely their solicitor would just contest this and I would lose the £80 court fee? If I did submit a claim through the small claims court, would I just leave the employment tribunal running until the outcome? The deadline for me to submit my schedule of loss is tomorrow, so I will submit today so that they cannot hold me in breach.

    • 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.

That I have already done but I still need to keep my main account as that is my main bill paying acct ie mortgage etc and to close that down will create a load of problems all my main dd's contacting 10 or 11 people with change of details is not possible at the moment but I am cancelling my card and asking for a new one OH update I had a reply from Wonga as I E mailed The errol guy they are now looking into my complaint but only aferr I e mailed him back without any response from him at first (told him was I being ignored for causing trouble (funny how I got a response in 2 minutes) and pointing out that they tried to take another £5 this morning I totally appreciate the advise you have given me about a payment plan but after the way I have been treated and "criminalised" by them I think I deserve to fight this all the way and stop other people being defrauded by these "legalised" loan sharks.

dont worry, you've changed your card details which means that they cannot debit any funds from your old card - dont give them your new card details. Moving forward - start by offering a fair repayment structure - not a structure where you'll die before you finish paying it !(i.e. £1.00 per month)

Once agreed and if its fair they'll agree it and freeze interest and possibly waive charges - pay them directly and take it as an expensive lesson. You'll feel really great once its over - so try not to get your back up and concentrate on sorting it out - not bitching over the past coz from my personal experience it aint going to help.

 

For now enjoy the weekend mate - lets hope it's a scorcher!

I actually contacted my local papers on this and they are very interested. I am going to offer a repayment plan (as now I am unmeployed (1.00 per month is all they will be getting) to them but on my terms not thiers. He mailed me back and actually said arrangement on thier terms but still refusing to stop interest on whats left. The last E mail from them only offered a very flippant pout and sorry which I refuse to accept about the vile and nasty fraud and jail threat and that will go further and they know it. YEs I am a very stubborn bull headed girly BY poor long suffering partner says when I dig my heels in even a heavy duty crane can't shift me LOL (poor devil loves him really) Will let everyone know what becomes of the outcome of the complaint about the OFT breakages.

A £1 pm payment is reasonable If it is all you can afford. If it takes you years to pay so what. Despite what wonga might say this is not a priority debt.

 

Stand your ground. Personally I wouldn't even let them have the quid without reaching agreement with them first and have it in writing.

Robjam, i cannot believe anyone, even unemployed can only afford £1 per month - i'm sorry, but this isnt dealing with the situation, its only making it worse. it's a joke.

£1.00 is very resonable and (no offence) I can't really afford now to even pay that as I have more important things to pay i.e missed mortage paYMENTS to keep a non priority debt is not as important as a roof over my head or try and sort council tax out utilities they will be lucky to even get that when I can

I think we can agree to disagree jamie. If you read the debt forums you will see that many folk can only afford to make token payments. I have never been unemployed but I can't imagine getting by on what they get.

 

Finally if toothie says that's all they can afford then I for one can't possibly disagree.

I agree sometimes even £1 is more than be afforded in there are multiple debts. Also WOnga is not a priority debt. All public advice bodies will confirm this. Thirdly getting an agreement on mutual terms is easier said than done with Wonga.

 

FInally, Wonga preach constantly about their Ethics. I feel it is not only my duty but the duty of everyone including the FLA, FSA and the FOS to hold them to account when they breached not only their own self proclaimed code but also thje code of conduct of their governing body

I have taken it to the FOS and have highlighted their breaches and forwarded the evidence. We'll just have to wait and see what happens. Wonga upset the wrong person when they annoyed me.

 

Also made another complaint to ASA about them.
