    • So I guess I may be on my own for this mediation ... I am not certain the CCA request has been satisfied .. or if the CPR has been .   And then I appear to have evidence that the Default notices provided are fabricated ? Yet, I do have (elsewhere ... not at home) Default letters from Capital One I can check ..
    • I submitted CCA request and CPR 31.14. However, I didn't get any proof of postage or use registered post for the CPR (an oversight) but did with the CCA request. I received a pack which included a letter from Overdales, going over the defence I'd filed, as well as letters of Lowells and reprints of letters from Capital One. But I have no idea if this pack is in response to the CCA request or the CPR ! I would have expected two separate responses ... although I do know they are both the same company.   Looking over the pack today, and looking through old emails .. I find some discrepencies in the Capital One default letters (notice of default and Claim of default). They are both dated *before* an email I have stating that a default can be avoided. The one single page of agreement sent (so not the full agreement) has a 16 digit number at the top in small print, next to 'Capital One' which corresponds to a number called 'PURN' printed at the top of each of the 10 pages of ins and outs of the account (they're not official statements, but a list of monthly goings) yet no mention anywhere on either of the account number. I cant really scan them at the moment - I can later tomorrow, but that will be after the mediation call I'm sure.
    • Here is my Defence: Defence - 1. The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have in the past had an agreement with Capital One but do not recognise this specific account number or recollect any outstanding debt and have therefore requested clarification by way of a CPR 31.14 and section 78 request.. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. I am unaware of having been served with a Default Notice pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. I am unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to the Law and Property Act 1925 Section 136(1) 5. The Defendant has sent a request by way of a section 78 pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974, for a copy of the agreement, the Claimant has yet to comply and remains in default of said request. 6. A further request has been made via CPR 31.14 to the Claimants solicitor, requesting disclosure of documents on which the Claimant is basing their claim. The Claimant has not complied and to date nothing has been received. 7. It is therefore not accepted with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant and the Claimant is put to strict proof to: a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement and; b) show how the Claimant has reached the amount claimed for and; c) show the nature of the breach and evidence by way of a Default Notice pursuant to sec 88 CCA1974 d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim 8. As per Civil Procedure 16.5 it is expected that the claimants prove the allegation that the money is owed 9. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of section 136 of the Law of Property Act and section 82A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 10. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.     Please note that I had to write a defence quite quickly as I hit the deadline. At the time of writing the defence, I hadn't been able to find correspondence from Capital One, but had since found default letter etc.
    • Which Court have you received the claim from ? Civil National Business CEntre       If possible please scan redact and upload a full page copy of page 1 of the claim form.

The debt was legally assigned to the claimant on 16-06-23, notice of which has been given to the defendant. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of the issue of these proceedings in the sum of £49.15 The Claimant claims the sum of £972   What is the total value of the claim? £1112   Have you received prior notice of a claim being issued pursuant to paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre Action Protocol) ?

Not since the debt purchase, and not from Capital One.   Why did you cease payments? I can't remember - it was the tail end of the pandemic and I may not have had enough income to keep up payments - I am self-employed and work in the event industry - at that time. I also had a bank account that didn't allow direct debits and may have just forgotten payments and became annoyed at fines for late payments.   What was the date of your last payment? Appears to be 20/4/2022   Was there a dispute with the original creditor that remains unresolved? No   Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt management plan? No

    • 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.

Im just wondering what any bikers out there think about policies about removing your helmet when entering shops.

 

I work on a small petrol station and it is company policy for bikers to remove their helmets before entering.

 

Last night I asked a biker to remove his helmet and got a barrage of verbal abuse from him, I was polite and it took me all my time not to answer back to him, believe me it was hard.

 

Do some bikers realise that it is very intimidating for us behind the counter to have this person all dressed up in usually dark leathers and a helmet loom up infront of you, and half the time we can hardly hear what they are saying. Bear in mind it was late at night, dark and there was only me and another lassie in the shop, so for our security they are asked to remove their lids.

 

There are signs and posters splattered all over the pumps and on the doors that helmets, hats and hoods must be removed.

 

Just wondered if there were any bikers on CAG and wanted their opinion on this matter.

Most bikers are fantastic about it, but there is a good few of them that are down right obnoxious.

 

Just heard today that the incident last night has resulted in the biker being banned from the station.

Maybe he was already banned... thats why he wanted to keep his helmet on :p

I think most shops now have this policy, we unfortunatly live in dangerous times and we need the ability to identify exactly who is entering and leaving public places. I can actualy see the governments security advisors attempting to ban islamic female dress in the near future... not because islamic females are more likeley to commit crime but because anyone... male or female of whatever race or religion could adopt this dress to commit crime.

 

A very sad state of affairs

I last rode a bike in 84 even back then it was policy for lid to be removed (banks and petrol stations), but the laughable part of it was in the winter and I wore a balaclava (not full face) under my helmet and was not asked for it to be removed. :doh:

 

So in answer to your question mazbak the rider should remove his/her helmet and not just for security but out of politeness to the staff. :tinfoil3:

No, this won't happen.

 

It's a bit like outlawing individuals who have long hair that covers more of the face and also have a beard and wear sunglasses.

 

Somebody like that could rob a bank, make a getaway and then in safety cut their hair, shave and remove their sunglasses thus being unrecognisable in just minutes.

 

What else should be banned? People who dye their hair, Sikh's headdress, people with a cold who hold a hanky to thier face...etc?

Sorry for hijack, but this is for DK, can you point me to where it says anything about religion in the rules? I have just re-read them just in case things had changed since last time and can't see anything about religion. :???: (I'm asking because that was one of the most shocking things I had read in a long time from my point of view!!!) Feel free to PM if you prefer. :-)

I was going to comment on JK's post (sticky ground JK) but it is of a Religious preference and should not be discussed by this forum. (see forum rules)

Pardon?

 

I specifically responded to the input from Castlebest who raised the notion of Islamic dress and you decide it is I who is raising a religious context to this thread!

 

What is your motive here?

I quite often get the remark from some bikers about if they were wearing a hijad/burka would they be asked to remove it, to which I have replied probably as it is for security reasons and nothing else.

 

Anyways back to the original question, thats to all thats answered.

 

It is for secrutiy that we ask all to remove helmets etc.

Maybe we can take this elsewhere if Maz object to the thread hijack, but in the meantime I'd like to point out that in France, things are made easier in tat there is complete separation of the church and the state, which simplifies the issue somewhat, as there can be no question that a state decision is not a church one.

 

Can we have a discussion about islamic veil is a feminist issue, not a religious one, please? :razz:

you could run me over with a bus right now and it wouldnt bother me with the amount of pain killers Im on with my wrist LOL!!! :madgrin:

 

Saying that what I did ask has opened a can of worms As I can see, it does question all possibilities of how you would react when faced with the situation of someone looming up in front of you with either a helmet, mask, veil etc?

 

Should all face coverings be banned when entering a shop or any business premises?

 

I personally think it all depends on the situation, I for instance works in a shop that is off the beaten track slightly and it is usually at night, and there is only a couple of us on at one time. Different maybe if it was a very busy shop in a busy area where you have lots of people going about.

 

So i feel safer if I can see a customers face and prefer to talk to someone face to face rather than through a helmet!

No, I think it is perfectly legitimate to ask people to remove their helmets. Amongst my checkered CV, there is a loooong stint as manager for Domino's Pizza, and my drivers would get told off by me in no uncertain terms if a customer phoned and said the driver hadn't removed his helmet when delivering.

Properly fitting helmets are a pain to take off and they leave your hair in a right mess. The foam rubs and, then having to get it back on and sweating again. :( But I agree that everyone should have to expose their face as and when required for security reasons, regardless of faith or any excuse..other than for medical reasons.

With all due respect the United Kingdom will absolutely make up its own mind on an issue such as this and will not be swayed by other countries and what they decide to do.

To JK I apologise to you, the comment that I was stating about your posting I deleted because it did not meet the politeness of the thread, I did mean to delete the reference to yourself, :sorry: as you posted after my remark you you only replied to a posting.

 

To Bookworm and the other poster's of this thread I read more into the

a) Xenophobia, racism, personal abuse, or incitement intended to cause disruption within a thread (commonly known as a "flame war")

 

So I apologise to all poster's in this thread

 

It seems I was over cautious.
