    • Hi there Manager for our soccer sixes team moved overseas mid season and we struggled for numbers so we told the ref about 5 weeks prior to seasons end that we would see out these games then be done and he told us he’d ’pass the message on to the relevant people’. Heard nothing, then 3 days prior to the new season beginning we were given our fixture for that weekend. Told the guy over text we had pulled out and the ref should’ve passed a message on but we were told sufficient notice wasn’t given and it needed to be in writing. I argued it’s not our fault the ref didn’t do as he said but we were countered by the T&Cs.    now being chased for what was £608 kindly reduced to £476 to pay off remainder of the season. Been sent a letter in the post from their accountancy team and told needs to be paid by Friday.   seen a lot of the other threads saying we can literally just ignore everything but im concerned about debt collections and credit score being harmed. Can anyone confirm if this all works/what we should do?   thanks
    • Hi,   I have given an official police witness statement for the prosecution in an upcoming criminal court case, and I am very anxious about what might happen.  Specifically regarding being cross-examined.  My statement is very short, and only a couple of paragraphs long, regarding a conversation I had with one of the victims.  I have tried to research online about what information about me the defence barrister might be able to find and use to discredit me.  I have by no means have a shady past but, I am concerned about what private information might be brought up, and as this is a case that will be in the national press as it is in the public interest.  The two preliminary hearings were reported in the papers.   I have tried to research  online what information the opposition can seek, but it is all very complicated.  I believe that they can legally access public records, but I'm not sure what information public records hold.  Can they access my medical records, educational history, HMRC, and Department for Work and Pensions? (I am a self employed sole trader).  I was arrested once, and this was unfortunately instigated by the victim in this case, so could well be of interest to them.  It resulted in no further action, however I have only discovered this week that that, in fact, this means I have a criminal record, and will be so until I am 100 (no chance)! This has really annoyed me to say the least, especially since I asked him afterwards why he rang the police and he said 'for a laugh'.  So I have started to look into applying for it to be deleted, but again, if anyone has any advice on this I would be appreciative. At the moment, my name isn't on the confirmed list to give evidence, but the detective I have been dealing with has said it is 'likely'. The names of the victims in this case will not be allowed to be reported, are witnesses fair game for the press? I really need no know how deep they can delve in to my life so I am prepared if my character gets assassinated in front of the nation. I really wish I'd never agreed to this.   Many thanks
    • A belated thanks dx. Yes I may take your advice regarding StepChange. I am finding that I am telling them (on behalf of my Son) the true balances outstanding? They never seem to check properly in which worries me. If I was to take on myself is there another way of dealing with various debts? I have already submitted other IRL complaints on his behalf. Today I have received a further response from Quidie T/A Fernovo confirming that they will waiver all interest paid.
    • Good evening  Case hearing this Friday 26/04. looking to have all my prep/papers ready.    just checking in to get update on my last post , ( the t&c’s attached). No name or address on them as per #49   thank you UCM  
    • Thanks a lot.  I did read every single post and though the process was fairly clear at a high level, I just wanted to be sure in the areas a posted. Call it first time nerves, going down this route.  Thanks again.

    • 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.

He is a man, so what do you all expect?
Oh, dear. Oh, my. WTF?

If you want a box of tissues for your sob stories, I am certain that your local shop will still be open at this time of night.

You don't know me, either but now ... wrong words to be saying to me or anyone else for that matter. I have pity for someone ... As to 'sob stories'. Well there is nothing about a little bit of 'hellzapopping' righteousness is there? Sob story? Come look in my eye, I will show you humanity but I will also show you what compassion means but also pain, despair, but I don't quite know what pieces of clay have to do with anything, either. I am not malleable, not at the will or whim of others, I am my own person, I make my own mind up. I left the church behind ages ago because of 'whiter than white' attitudes and not one iota of compassion for anyone.

 

However, my thoughts are always with the victims of wrongdoing (I won't even get into what wrongdoings that have been done in the name of the church over the centuries as this is not the time nor place but you did bring it up).

 

So, don't even begin to get righteous with me as you have not a clue what I have done in my life, nor how I am as a human being. Your words are totally, utterly wasted. Like I said I have pity for someone ... Can you guess who?

 

You have no idea.

Chill man, or Ian Beal will come to yours for tea.

 

On a more serious note...Mould I have just browsed your Threads and Posts, and I am impressed by you concerns, help, and equally the advise you have offered fellow cagers, newbies and even the more experienced member.

 

I think it would be very foolish, and a great loss to you and us if you were to de-register ( leave ) this forum, there is no humble pie here, so sit back, relax and stop biting before this thread gets ' pulled '.

 

IMHO, I think the Father is wrong to do what he has, however that is not for us to judge, personal stories will come flooding from members as a result of his wrong doings. however we all must get on with our own personal fights, and await the outcome before we all pass judgement.

I have unapproved another of The Mould's crayonings, even at the risk that he will follow through on his threat to leave and never return. This is because the post is clearly absurd, and seems to be designed only to provoke others. It does not contribute anything to the discussion.

How do you do that? do you see it before us?

Just maybe this guy loved his family so much he could not bear being without them and truly believed there is life after death and probably thought he did not want his family to though being harassed and chased

 

Indeed I think he probably thought taking them with him was the best option and a means for us all to escape.

Mr W

 

It was there for all to see until I unapproved it. Mods see posts the same way as everyone else, and at the same time. The only difference is that we have an additional menu of thread and post tools.

 

Unapproved posts can still be viewed by mods, but not by others, so they don't disappear completely.

Any of the site team can moderate threads and posts.

 

Fair enough, how are you site team? did you get voted?

 

Maybe you can give me an insight as to the ' League ' on this forum.

 

IE

 

dIRECTORS, CHAIRMAN ETC.

What I mean, is why cant I unapprove?
In a way you can, if you see a post that you think needs moderating all you have to do is hit the red triangle report.gif which will alert members of the site team and they'll be able to review it.

 

If everyone had the ability to physically edit other people's posts can you imagine what chaos the site would be.... let alone if a troll turned up or even worse a DCA. ;)

I think what he means is what makes a moderator a better judge of what is uncalled for than say for example me or anybody else for that matter?

 

It has been clearly illustrated to me today that such things are not dealt with fairly or even very intelligently.
