    • A) Bollards, or B) county court action for trespass onto your private land, or C) retain one of the private parking firms, ensuring that they'll offer to take payment for the private parking space(s) on your land. (What you don't want is for them to put up signs saying "no parking" ... as then there can't be a contract to park to be broken .... read up on the parking threads to see what can be used to get out of such a private parking charge....) The PPC offers parking, with the proviso that a) they pay, and b) they provide contact numbers for the cars to be moved when needed. Make the payment required sufficient that it isn't attractive to them to chose to park there (& pay)....... Bollards may not be your preferred option, but it will likely be the simplest / quickest / most cost effective.
    • You need to choose between ET and small claims, you cannot do both. For straightforward wages I'd go small claims. Faster and less messing about. Advice here Employment claims in the civil courts - Working Families WORKINGFAMILIES.ORG.UK Some types of employment-related claims can be brought in the civil courts, rather than in an Employment Tribunal. This advice page offers a high level...  
    • The garages are used - just car currently being fixed.  I have no need of what they offer.  It is conscious trespass - and the law allows. Which is frustrating.  It's just v annoying that they do this. Isn't there a law that someone cannot prevent access to a public highway from private land?
    • The problem with sending it too early is that Jake might try to write something called a Supplemental Witness Statement to undermine yours.  It would be better to send yours right on the court's deadline. The problem is that we don't know when that is.  In 90% of cases it's 14 days before the court's deadline, so 21/06.  However, in the odd case the judge decides differently.  
    • Signs and notes on windscreens wouldn't deter me either. after all. it's private land and very little deterrent to stop drivers from abusing it. A physical barrier, IMHO is the only way you will stop them abusing it.....or, depending on what businesses they are, why not rent out your garage to them, ask them for a staff discount if you purchase anything from them? Whilst it is irksome, how much money have you got to throw at it, and is it really that important in your life? If you were using your garage, different story.

    • 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.

I used to get mail from them demanding £300 from an old littlewoods catalogue debt. I used to read them in the lavatory first thing in the morning.

 

Guess what I did with their letters ;)

Scottish Gas told me to live on TV dinners. I told them to go and recline under a bus. 8)

Ive guessed what this is about. BCW take on bts debts and when I left them the final bill had cancellation charges on it so told they would send in their words final final bill. Havnt had one yet and I guess they have passed me to them, well we will see and I will be waiting like a crocodile for a leg:p

I suppose I could ring bt but cant be bothered if they cant send the bill and well they did tell me porkies, so bring it on xxxx

Ive as said had no bill no courtesy call from bt asking for money adn no letter yet from bcw, so I suppose it could be the wrong name again, but something tells me sniffy bt wont have competantly sent me the promised revised bill. If it is them cant they get in trouble for bt passing on my phone number? with no introduction.

Aye but anybody can find that their details have cropped up on some mailing list and the bad old skeletons come back to haunt you.

BCW are pussycats

 

They will hassle you for a few weeks then it will get passed back to OC for some other DCA to ride over the hill if you're unlucky it will be sham outfit anglo/american NCO.

 

These idiots really need to grasp that in this country we have the OFT they keep forgeting this fact and have to reminded by OFT.:cool:

 

Next time you get a strange number just type it into google without spaces and you'll prob get 'who calls me', whicn can save a bit of time.

We live in an unmoderated country why should the net be any different?

Bring back free speech we miss it!

I also am having trouble with BCW (Glasgow address), receiving letters which I ignore, phone calls (how they get my number I don't know because only 3 people have it......and I'm one of them), and it's always about some money I'm supposed to owe to T mobile - which I don't.

But that's beside the point. This morning I received an email (no idea how they got that my email addy). The basic rubbish was being puked out "rings us now, urgent, same old crap", but the phone number given is: 0844 571 4030. I checked this on yell.com, and it also appears to be a number BCW use.
