    • 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! As ever, many thanks - G59    
    • 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. If you have any questions or need clarification, please feel free to contact me via postal mail at the address provided above. Yours sincerely, xxxx
    • In the SAR, I received the original application, lots of computer print outs, yearly statements from 2013 and the new emails regarding my complaint. They sent me a £50 cheque after I chased them for the SAR after the 30 days. They said they was waiting for me to respond to an email (which I never received) before sending the SAR
    • classic P2G. I'm sure dianne and Lesley will pop an email to you at some point.

    • 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.

Hi, we're being charged a 100 pound deduction for the following cleaning bill, should we just swallow it despite more being done than substantiated by checkout report?

Please excuse the "screaming", I am just trying to differentiate my comments from the invoice's:.

 

-To clean windows internally - NOT MENTIONED ON CHECKOUT. I CLEANED THE WINDOWS THOROUGHLY MYSELF SO THIS IS UNFOUNDED

 

-To surface clean kitchen and all fittings - CHECKOUT ONLY MENTIONS BURNT RESIDUE ON ONE RING AROUND THE BACK RH HOB AND THE GRILL PAN, THIS IS TOTALLY UNFOUNDED AS THE KITCHEN WAS OTHERWISE ABSOLUTELY TIPTOP!

 

-To clean oven, hob, extractor - PERHAPS FAIR, AS THERE WAS SOME BURNT RESIDUE ON GRILLPAN AND ONE HOBRING WHICH WE WERE UNABLE TO REMOVE DESPITE GREAT EFFORT.

-To remove cobwebs, clean skirting, light fittings - OK, FAIR ENOUGH, THERE WERE SOME COBWEBS AND WE MISSED SOME SKIRTING BOARDS

 

-To surface clean toilet, bath, shower - CHECKOUT REPORT MENTIONS 3 SMALL CASES OF LIMESCALE (SHOWER HOSE, BOTTOM OF SHOWER DOOR AND SPOT INSIDE ONE TOILET). ASIDE FROM THAT THESE AREAS WERE SPOTLESS.

-To clean , dust, vacuum house, unfurnished - NO VACUUMING WAS NEEDED, NOR DUSTING ASIDE FROM A SINGLE WINDOWSILL WHICH WE OVERLOOKED, VERY VERY PETTY.

In addition to this they are charging us 150 pounds for carpet cleaning despite the LA telling us over the phone that it would cost about 100 when we asked. This is as much as doube the quotes I received when calling around for prices, but unfortunately we ran out of time and weren't able to do this ourselves.

 

 

Perhaps this seems petty to some, but we've had a load of hassle with acquiring this information (cf my other post). We handed over on the 17th of August and only got the bill for deductions today! This is despite the contract stating we should be notified within 10 working days.

Thanks in advance for any advice!!

Will someone please advise us? If no reply comes in soon I guess we'll just have to swallow having to pay the whole 250 - which stings given the attitude we've had from the LA.

 

Why put a notification of deductions deadline into leases if they mean sod all?

£100 even for those areas you have accepted are your responsibility doesnt seem hugely unreasonable.

 

There is not penalty for late notification.

 

The increase in carpet cleaning cost is not really applicable - they advised roughly how much it would be, they didnt make a binding contract by stating this.

 

IMHO - not a huge amount to quibble over.
