    • I suggested consideration of bankruptcy some years ago. It was not well received.
    • That is a superb WS. However, I have a few tweaks to suggest. In (2) "indicating" not "indication". I think to be consistent with your numbering, in (6) the Beavis case should be EXHIBIT 2. Do you really need to include over 100 pages of Beavis?  I think that would be likely to annoy the judge.  Just try and find the bit where they decide it was not a penalty due to having an interest in limiting the time that vehicles can stay. I'll have a look myself for this bit later as it's highly likely to be in WSs from PPCs who think that that paragraph means all their charges are valid always on every occasion. After your current (7) add this.  It's always useful to refer to a judgment when making a legal point - 8.  In the case PCM vs Bull, Claim No. B4GF26K6, where the Defendant was issued parking tickets for parking on private roads with signage stating “No parking at any time”, District Judge Glen in his final statement mentioned that: “the notice was prohibitive and didn’t communicate any offer of parking and that landowners may have claim in trespass, but that was not under consideration”.   In (14) if my maths are right the CPR request should be "EXHIBIT 3".  it is missing from your list of exhibits. In (16) the two figures should be £100 and £170.  They are entitled to increase fro,m £60 to £100, they are not entitled to increase to £170.  To make it clear for the judge I would write - 16. The Claimant has artificially inflated their claim for a £100 invoice to £170. This is simply a poor attempt to circumvent the legal costs cap at small claims. 17. The Claimant has also invented a second fictitious charge, for legal representative's costs, when they have no legal representative. You also need ot number your exhibits. The rest is excellent - well done.
    • Did you ever think of walking away? Become bankrupt and in 12 months it'll all be behind you. My feeling is that you may well get nothing from the sale of the property anyway. Going by the date this thread started it looks like eight years of arrears, lender's costs and receiver’s fees on top.
    • Just to clarify - I make use of evening legal clinics. It is not always possible to see a lawyer (they have limited time and days/week).  This means questions one has may never get answered or there's weeks between follow-ups.   To be really clear - I am representing myself; I am playing at being lawyer/ barrister - which means I take help wherever I can get it (and then research it thoroughly). Ae - a judge in a recent hearing pointed out the receiver is not part of my current proceedings - and suggested I have a separate claim v the receiver. Disclosure has presented damning evidence v the receiver  The receiver against whom I have a complaint is not part of the receiver governing body.   The receivership is in 2 names - a joint one.  My complaint is directed at whom I was told is the lead receiver.  The other named receiver IS a member of the governing body.  But he has now left the company.  And the lead receiver has retired - but is still a working consultant on my case.   All the evidence shows it was the 'lead' receiver who was doing all the  work/ the misbehaviour.   But if the appointment was 'joint' would I make a complaint against them both?    I am sure that wouldn't go down well with the other receiver who is at the beginning of his career. The law is very much against borrowers.   But the evidence against this receivership is crystal clear.   I just don't know how and to whom to complain.   The places I've tried so far don't offer much transparency

    • 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.

Hello,

I am unfortunately having a frustrating issue with Ebuyer.com, technically the problem is very simple. Basically I purchased a TV from Ebuyer, and it actually came to me with the panel smashed! the TV is completely unusable. Now of course I called up Ebuyer to sort this out and get a replacement but instead they blame me for this damage and currently refuse to resolve this problem.

 

So far from what I have learned about the law and the Sales of Goods act, I should be entitled to a refund or replacement. So what should a customer do in this situation? many people around the world return faulty goods every single day, there has to be some sort of resolution to this problem?

 

To support a solution to this problem, I believe I have strong photographic evidence to prove that I did not cause the damage. Yet apparently when I sent the photos to Ebuyer, they still claim that I caused the damage.

 

-----

 

If anyone is interested in the details..

The TVs panel (display/screen) is damaged, from the looks of it it looks like it toke a hit, perhaps with an object.

the panel is "internal". The external part of the TV is the screen cover (this is the same on all LCD tvs btw) this screen cover is a thin sheet of material to simply protect the panel. Now the screen cover is completely undamaged, it pristine condition, not even a finger print lays on it.

If somone hit the LCD tv, with their fist/object etc, not only would the panel be damaged but you would guarantee be able to see screen cover damage as well.

 

The best way to see and understand what i'm saying is to see the TV with your own eyes, but Ebuyer refuse to take it back from me to check themselves. The photos provide no where near enough quality evidence compared to viewing the TV in person, BUT the photos I have taken, clearly show that there is no damage at all to the screen cover.

 

I hope somone here is able to help me, as not only is this a big problem.. its also frustrating listening to Ebuyer's bizarre defence which I cannot seem to talk to a person to reason with.

For me to damage the panel "only" would mean I would have to dismantle the TV by voiding the warranty sticker. Using samsungs equipment for assembly/dissassembly which a typical customer would clearly have no access to and then obviously have the skill to manage these kind of fragile electronics which I also don't have.

Why on earth would I buy a TV, do all of the above, then phone back up for a replacement on the same day I recieved it?

Ok nevermind! they just gave me a call with a sudden change of heart and are willing to take this broken TV off me and replace it!

Don't really know why, I did send a complaint letter a few days ago and perhaps only today they've seen it?

 

Anyway, its all good now and thanks for helping you guys :)
