    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • Yes, it was, but in practice we've found time after time that judges will not rule against PPCs solely on the lack of PP.  They should - but they don't.  We include illegal signage in WSs, but more as a tactic to show the PPC up as spvis rather than in the hope that the judge will act on that one point alone. But sue them for what?  They haven't really done much apart from sending you stupid letters. Breach of GDPR?  It could be argued they knew you had Supremacy of Contact but it's a a long shot. Trespass to your vehicle?  I know someone on the Parking Prankster blog did that but it's one case out of thousands. Surely best to defy them and put the onus on them to sue you.  Make them carry the risk.  And if they finally do - smash them. If you want, I suppose you could have a laugh at the MA's expense.  Tell them about the criminality they have endorsed and give them 24 hours to have your tickets cancelled and have the signs removed - otherwise you will contact the council to start enforcement for breach of planning permission.

    • 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.

1) do you have a copy of the default notice ? and if so do you object to me inspecting a copy?

 

2) do you have a copy of the notice of assignment and do you object to me inspecting a copy?

This is all good stuff. I think you need to 'trick' them in to saying they have a document and will rely on it in reply to your Part 18 request, then use other CPR to request those documents. If they haven't mentioned them in the claim to date, you can't CPR them to get copies, hence the 'nudge' in the right direction.

 

The trick, as PT has pointed out, is to ask the right questions! :)

I'm just about to start the Part 18 request but am a bit thrown now after reading up. Under Part 18, I can't request documents eg T&Cs and the NOA they haven't provided, only ask for clarification/elaboration on the ones they already have - help :???:

 

If you need a copy of the T&Cs then there is nothing stopping you making an S78 request ......

They are supposed to send you a copy of the agreement and any other document mentioned in it.. so they should produce those as part of your CPR31.14 request ? Have you sent a reminder CPR31.14 and or CPR31.15 request - a request to inspect the original documents ?

Were in danger of overloading Bo with conflicting advice so my thoughts (for what it's worth). Go ahead with the Part 18 (if you haven't already done so. Treat this as separate but obviously connected and then follow up Part 31 as Citizen B has suggested.

 

The SAR is another separate but connected action and all of these actions are aimed at flushing them out.

 

Until they can produce the original agreement and all surrounding it you remain "embarrassed".

Can anyone answer my question in post 233? I can't put the name of the court down until I know where it's going to be.

For some reason I'm not getting the post numbers showing against posts now, but think I know the one. It's still with NCCBC so head it with that. The Claim number will remain the same when it is transfered and it wont matter if the heading is the former court when/if it becomes necessary to disclose it. The Part 18 only goes to Claimant anyway, a copy is not filed with court.

OK, Part 18 all done now - thanks for the help. I'll get that off recorded tomorrow.

 

Is there a template follow up letter chasing up on the T&Cs in relation to the CPR 31 request I sent, or do I simply just write to Morgans and refer to my original CPR request. They did say that they were requesting the T&Cs from the Assignor and that they would be forwarded to me in due course but I'm still wating. I honestly cannot remember ever seeing a copy of the T&Cs originally or in my SAR to the OC.

 

In the meantime, I have received a response to my SAR to Cabot. In the letter, they state that they will be forwarding the information on a CD.

 

They also state the following:-

 

Please be advised that Cabot may not hold information such as your original credit agreement or statements on file. In order to obtain this information, we recommend you contact the original lender, who will hold this information as the original data controller.

 

However, in the event that the original lender has supplied Cabot with this information, the documents will be included with your client's Subject Access Data.

They will be sending your info on a CD? That's a new one on me. Wait and see what turns up. However they line that they may not have your original documentation is telling -routine but telling - they start these claims without the paperwork and hope no-one notices.

As for whatever case is going to appeal just carry on regardless.

please what is this,

 

CPR 31.14 for disclosure of ALL docs;

send this by recorded delivery post.

 

I have received a letter from the County Courts telling me to collect IMPORTANT COURT DOCUMENTS, I think well i`m almost sure this is regarding my car which was repossesed some months ago, which i have had a letter telling me I owe £5,000, which is probably correct with interest, however, since the agreement I now live on my own with one income, I work full time, rent privately and have 2 children, 1 14 and 1 16 who attends college, i have very little left over after pay day, however the children stay with thir dad who claims tax credits etc & live with me half the week, please advise I don`t know what to do.

Hi Tomglen

 

Probably best to start your own thread on this, then you can ask as many questions as you like :-)

 

Thanks Rhia

 

Still no DN P1 but they said that there won't be a DN as they don't want to take any steps listed in Section 87 of the CCA 1974 :eyebrows:

 

Part 18 sent to Morgans.

 

AQ has arrived and the case has been transferred to my local court. Will fill in as far as poss, but may need some help on this.

 

PS - Think I've found a replacement smilie for the EEKK one that disappeared!! :!:
