    • You have of course checked the car is now taxed and the £68 is stated against  the same reg?  If the tax for the same car did over lap, then I can't see you having an issue pleading not guilty Dx
    • The boundary wiill not be the yellow line.  Dx  
    • Afternoon all Looking for advice before I defend claim for car tax payment that the DVLA claim I owe £68 from an idemity claimback from my bank and unpaid tax  brief outline. Purchased car Jan 30th ,garage paid the tax for me after I gave them my card details  first payment £68 out in Feb 24  followed by payment of £31 from March due to end Jan 24 Checked one of my vehicle apps and about 7-10 days later car showing as untaxed? No reason why but it looks like DVLA cancelled it , this could be because I did not have the V5 and the gargae paid on my behalf but not sure did not receive a letter to say car was untaxed.  Fair enough I set up the tax again staight away in Feb 24  and first payment out Mar 31st , and each payment since has come out each month for £31 , this will end Feb/Mar 2025, slightly longer than the original tax set up, all good. I then claimed the £68 back from my bank as an indemity refund as obviously I had paid but DVLA had cancelled therefore it was a payment for nothing?  Last week recieved a SJP form dated 29th May stating that DVLA were claiming for unpaid tax and a false indemity claimback which of course is the £68. It also stated that I had received two previous letters offering me the oppotunity to pay that £68 but as I had not responded it was now a court claim that I must admit guilt for or defend. My post is held for weeks at a time from Royal Mail ( keepsafe) due to me receiving hospital tretament at weeks at a time that said I did not receive any previous letters from DVLA. I am happy to defend this and go to court but wondering what CAG members think? In summary I paid an initial amount of £68 and then a DD of £31 , tax cancelled  I set up a new DD at £31 a month all in the month of Feb 2024, I claimed the £68 back from my bank. DD has been coming out each month without issue and I have paperwork to show the breakdown for both DD setup's plus bank statements showing the payments coming out . The second DD set up has extended payments up to Feb/Mar 2025. DVLA claiming the £68 was ilegally claimed back despite the fact they cancelled the original DD for reasons unknown. Is this defendable ? I will post up documents including the original DD conformations

    • It's not a private road.  It's a small public street (with Resi houses) that leads into and from public road/ highway. The garages have land in front of the doors.  Then there's a yellow line. So there's a clear marker on what is private and what is public.  These people keep parking on the private land side

    • 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.

Sent for a CCA from Nor. Rock personal loans, they have responded with this...

 

th_NRcover.jpgth_Agree1.jpgth_Agree1.jpg

 

Any thoughts?

 

I'm currently struggling to make the payments (even on a reduced payment plan). I will have to make just small payments for the next few months until income picks up, It would be nice to know if the agreement s unenforceable to give me some peace of mind that NR won't just take me to court. Although I can't afford to pay them any more anyway.

 

Loan was taken out in 2004.

 

p.s. I think I may have also put another couple of similar threads in the wrong place, could someone please comment on these...

No, it was applied for online and then they sent the agreement through the post a few days later if memory serves. I don't deny the debt is mine, and I'm not trying to avoid paying it back but it would be nice to know if it's unenforceable through a court though, just to give me a bit of breathing space, I just cant afford the repayments at the moment.

Well I can't see any box with 'Your right to cancel'

So IMO I would say it is unenforceable, others will hopefully be able to confirm this.

I still can't see a right-to-cancel clause though.

 

Edit: Although 7. (e) sort of comes close.

I have received this morning an i&e form in response to making a token payment after being on a CCCS repayment plan which I have been unable to keep to.

 

th_Norrockincreq2.jpg

 

I am aware that I am under no legal obligation to fill it out (which will take ages, its huge!) but are NR more likely to accept token payments for a few months until I get things sorted out if I do complete it or is it really a waste of time and I should just keep paying something each month even if it is a token payment?

 

Any thoughts on how to respond (if any is needed)?

ignore it

just pay what you can.

they'll only pressure for more money eitherway, so pointless exercise.

I agree. Ignore it. They have kidded me along for 3 weeks (when I have a repossession looming) with this form and then refused it as they couldn't read one entry.

 

It is just delaying tactics on their part so that they win. Don't let them.

Quick update.

 

I've been making small token payments since July but other than the above "send us your financials" letter I have not had a "we accept/reject your propsals" letter, but just in the last few days they seem to have gone on the offensive. 6 phone calls in 5 days including a couple of silent ones (which to be honest doesn't really worry me as I have a pretty thick skin although I have written to them anyway telling not to call, writing only.)

 

I also received this "final notice"

 

th_NRLetter.jpg

 

One thing that interests me slightly is the fact they seem happy to take payment via credit card, I was under the impression that this was against OFT guidelines, i.e. using credit to pay credit and encouraging the very cycle that got me into this mess in the first place.

I received another I&E form identical to the first one. Is it worth sending a letter along the lines of...

 

"Income too variable, no point in filling out your form, I can't commit to any payment in the short term, I am aware I'm not obliged to anyway."

 

Would it make any difference if I at least show willingness to communicate?

at the end of the day

no judge will make you pay more

in-fact, most judges will laugh them out the door and prob asign a smaller payment.

 

pers i'd ignore them.

Just read the letter they sent and apart from the usual immature threats I had to laugh when I read the name the computer used to sign off the letter "J.Horner" Not THE Jack Horner who sits in a corner eating his Christmas pie....

 

I do hope you haven't ignored them and have called them? Otherwise they get very angry and the coloured crayons come out!!!!!!

 

Personally I would fill in their I&E form and fill it with zero's, OR, make up your own I&E form and ensure you list the following;

Personal Chauffeur wages £150 per day,

Cleaning staff x 8= £800 per day,

Private Jet hire £25,000 per hour,

Cheese & wine & caviare Parties x 4per month £18,000 ea.

Running costs of private helicopter with pilot, £85,000 per month.

Cost of stationary and postage to amuse debt collectors, £1 a week...

That is beautifully tempting sure enough, the geeky square in me will probably resort to sombre seriousness though despite the temptation to tell Jack Horner exactly where to stick his thumb to look for his plum.

 

They certainly seem to place a great deal of weight on their I&E form, had another request from them...

 

th_iandeagain.jpg

 

On the plus side they have agreed not to communicate by telephone and do everything in writing which to be honest, I was expecting more of a fight over.

It is very simple, they don't get to see your private I&E full stop.

Ask them which district judge has requested your I&E so that he can view it and advise them accordingly as to how much you can afford?

Or tell them to get down off their high horse, and that YOU will tell THEM how much YOU will pay THEM, if they don't like it to take you to court where you will gladly allow a DJ who is suitably qualified to view your private information, either way the muppets aren't getting anything, you have their bank details, just go ahead and set up the standing order paying them what YOU have decided you can afford. They won't be able to take any legal action.

Their response to my unwillingness to complete their I&E has resulted in them defaulting me, received this notice by first class post yesterday.

 

**removed because your name is showing**

 

I'm a bit flummoxed by what they refer to as a "rebate" though :confused: Anybody seen that before?

Rebate is how much you would get back if you pay this off earlier than expected.

Oh well, start the complaints process to the FOS, inform them that they have issued a DN in response to you not jumping through their hoops.

subbing with interest - im at the same point with NR

 

TB

 

I have been paying them as part of an agreed payment plan which is due to end next month and they have sent me a letter asking me for detailed I&E - which I'm not willing to supply (as they already had this at the beginning of the agreement and my circs have not changed at all) so I am going to cancel the card I have been paying them on and set up a SO for the amount which I have been paying as I cannot afford any more.

Hi,

 

sorry, i wasn't trying to butt in on your thread, I was just explaining what course of action I am taking in what appears to be similar circs to your own.

 

TB

 

I'm going to start my own thread as and when I need to.... good luck with yours xx
