    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above
    • In anticipation of lodging my court claim next Weds 1 May (14 days after advising P2G that was my deadline for them to settle my claim) I have completed my first draft POC as below: Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant has failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing a 8 secondhand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80 I look forward to your thoughts and comments guys!

    • Hmm, that's strange how they got my email then.  I assume the below is ok to send to DCBL, Nicky?  Hello, I am writing regarding our ongoing dispute and the upcoming court claim reference xxxxxxxx. To ensure fairness and transparency in our communications leading up to the court hearing, I request that you use postal mail exclusively for all further correspondence related to this claim. Please refrain from sending any communication or documents via email. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

    • 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.

Having spent a good two hours reading advice on this site I figured I'd see if anyone could advise us on the route to go with our current situation with WF.

 

My partner took out a HP agreement with WF over a year ago. The payments were always up to date till recently when his wages dropped. He's not ignored the situation completely but offered token payments every few weeks, (agreement was weekly).

 

Last month he received a DN so contacted them to set up a payment arrangement which they agreed to but wouldn't bend on dropping to a lower amount till he got his wages back on track. Since then I've had several phone calls, (which I've left to go to VM), asking him to contact them.

 

This evening they actually managed to reach him and demanded a payment of £319 otherwise on the 31st of this month his account will be reviewed for repossession. We don't have the £319 so he offered them £80, (the weekly payment amount), the guy said he would take the £80 but the account will still be reviewed on the 31st with a higher chance of repossession. Even if we pay the £319 the account will still be reviewed because the outstanding is apparently £1200 odd. Clearly the guy just wanted some money out of him but with no intention of being helpful. :rolleyes: My partner said he didn't want to give him money just to get the car repossessed so WF are phoning back tomorrow. :-|

 

We worked out that with juggling some money we could pay the rent which is due and the £319 to WF and have barely any money for the following week which isn't ideal with prepayment energy metres, a toddler and empty fridge and freezer! Really could do with no paying that money out to WF when it doesn't guarantee the car won't be repossessed. :sad:

 

So basically after reading threads on this forum and seeing all the advice and the dodgy way WF seem to go about things we started to wonder what our options actually were. I can post the only documentation we have from WF, (there's not much despite being told we should of had a letter recently). The car is on our driveway which is actually not directly outside our house, (there's a house and another driveway between us and the car if that makes sense but our garage is in front of the car with our house number clearly above it) and the car is currently signed into my name for insurance purposes. The car is also currently undergoing an insurance claim for an RTA and is currently damaged. :rolleyes:

 

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Ok have you received a termination notice? would have been between the default notice and now....

 

dont pay anything in the way of a payment agreement without having it in writing from them because they will say one thing and do another....

I am a consumer just like you, please get a second opinion or investigate yourself on anything I advise as I am in no way legally trained. Everything I know has come from the Mighty CAG and fellow CAGGERS. :cool:

if you could post up the original agreement without car reg/car make and model/ and all your personal details and account numbers that may help us advise more...

 

the problem with it being repossessed if thats what u want is they will then chase you for the remaining balance of the account just because the car is gone they wont leave you alone.

 

I believe (i may be wrong) that a drive is private property and therefore comes under s92 of cca and they cannot repo without a court order, also have you paid more than 1/3?

Nope, we've not had a termination notice. We've had one letter re: a £10 for a phone call which we got them to cancel and the DN which I'm about to post.

 

Because they were threatening repo unless the £320 was paid today, that's now been paid but there is still the outstanding amount. Apparently, we can keep to the contractual payments and nothing more will happen but frankly I don't believe them. This morning they phoned and told us to remove everything out the car because if we don't pay today they'll come and get it. They are claiming that 1/3 hasn't been paid off and they could just take the car if they wanted too. After the amount was paid this afternoon they are saying the account won't be reviewed on the 31st and everything is normal... :confused: There's still an outstanding of at least £600+ and I don't see how that suddenly isn't an issue, I don't for one minute believe they are just letting it all go on as normal. Does that make sense?

The original agreement is filed away, I can dig it out if necessary. It was put away when we moved, my minds blanking on where though.

 

We'd rather the car wasn't repossessed, we're in no position to buy another one.

 

Looking at the DN we received we thought we had paid 1/3, they are saying different... I really don't trust them and I don't like this little game they seem to be playing with us.

 

Get the car in your garage!! Although I'd like to believe they will now think twice about repossessing off private property, I still wouldn't like to risk it. I'll wait til you get back to us with what Beyond has suggested :)

 

But don't worry, you have options ;)

 

Looks like this weekend involves clearing the garage to fit in a car. :rolleyes:

Is there any PPI on the agreement??

We really need to see the agreement :)

 

Seemingly I'm more organised that I thought, it's in the folder with the V5, mots and service book. Just uploading. 2 ticks. :)

88% of all your payments go towards paying for the car the rest is for the crappy insurances. You have clearly paid more than the amount stated as your repo figure even allowing for the percentage they take for the premiums. They are lying, cheating ****, they have no right to repo your car without a court order! It is protected goods.

If they do come just make sure you do not give your permission for them to take it, keep the keys and log book as proof. But in all honesty I doubt very much if they will do that, they just wanted to scare you into making a payment and they succeeded :mad: They'll probably try the same trick again next month!

 

I HATE WELCOME FINANCE :-x

According to my calculations you have definitely paid more than a third! When and how did they say you hadn't paid a third???

 

They told him that on Wednesday evening. Partner told them they can't repo if he's paid more than 1/3, the guy "that's right, but you haven't paid more than 1/3." He asked what the figures were, total amount, paid amount, rep told him, partner pointed out that that was over 1/3 only to be told, "no, it's not, it doesn't work like that". Thursday morning when he phoned he was adamant they were taking the car and to remove everything from it, partner again said he'd paid over 1/3 and again was told he was wrong. They said they were phoning back at 4 for payment otherwise the account will go to be reviewed for repo on the 31st, (nice to know they work Saturdays) and there was nothing they could do to stop that unless he made the £319 payment. They phoned again at 4 and partner just paid them thinking they'd take the car otherwise and he really doesn't want to loose the car. Now they are letting him continue with the contractual payments? How do they go from threatening repo to saying carry on as you were mate? :confused:

The log book is in my name for insurance reasons, they will not be getting me to hand that over.

 

Apparently they are sending our a statement with all the payments made. I'm not sure why they are sending this and I very much doubt they even will after reading threads on here.
