      Erudio/ Drydens Fairfax CCJ - Advice Please - N244 Case March 2021

      By owk · Posted

      Hi,  I've had some issues uploading and redacting this - due to file types etc.. I've blanked out the first 10 pages.  There is a contents list - so let me know which areas you need to look at.    Many thanks

      Sent phone by Packlink/Hermes without insurance - Got damaged and thrown away!!

      By BankFodder · Posted

      I'm sorry to say but it is pretty clear that you haven't read around the other Hermes stories on this sub- forum and you don't even appear to have read some of the posts that I have put up on this thread.   The issue of Packlink has specifically been referred to in about post number three of this thread. Also you have been urged on at least three occasions on this thread to read around the sub- forum at the other Hermes stories.   All the issues that are coming up in your claim and raised by Hermes defence have been dealt with repeatedly and there are lots of threads with very substantial  explanations as to the appropriate arguments. I even posted up links to to useful threads earlier on today.   We are posting this stuff up for a joke. We are posting it up to you to help yourself. You have to invest yourself in this because the case is yours to win or yours to lose and if you win then the money is yours to keep. You can win this easily but if you simply need to be spoonfed all the time and am afraid that you won't be sufficiently confident and also you won't be sufficiently in control of what you want to say when the mediator was on the telephone.   Fill in the form that you have been sent and send it off and then start reading around this forum and certainly you should come back here when you have read around thoroughly and you still have questions and we will be very pleased to help you. However, you've got to do some of the work yourself – that is the deal here.

    • Post in Court Claim Against Hermes - item sent via Packlink was lost/tampered with **WON**

      jj58 posted a post in a topic,

      Hi @BankFodder
      Sorry for only updating you now, but after your guidance with submitting the claim it was pretty straight forward and I didn't want to unnecessarily waste your time. Especially with this guide you wrote here, so many thanks for that
      So I issued the claim on day 15 and they requested more time to respond.
      They took until the last day to respond and denied the claim, unsurprisingly saying my contract was with Packlink and not with them.
       
      I opted for mediation, and it played out very similarly to other people's experiences.
       
      In the first call I outlined my case, and I referred to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 as the reason to why I do in fact have a contract with them. 
       
      In the second call the mediator came back with an offer of the full amount of the phone and postage £146.93, but not the court costs. I said I was not willing to accept this and the mediator came across as a bit irritated that I would not accept this and said I should be flexible. I insisted that the law was on my side and I was willing to take them to court. The mediator went back to Hermes with what I said.
       
      In the third call the mediator said that they would offer the full amount. However, he said that Hermes still thought that I should have taken the case against Packlink instead, and that they would try to recover the court costs themselves from Packlink.
       
      To be fair to them, if Packlink wasn't based in Spain I would've made the claim against them instead. But since they are overseas and the law lets me take action against Hermes directly, it's the best way of trying to recover the money.
       
      So this is a great win. Thank you so much for your help and all of the resources available on this site. It has helped me so much especially as someone who does not know anything about making money claims.
       
      Many thanks, stay safe and have a good Christmas!

It is still illegal to wear a false nose on a Sunday.

It is also illegal to buy fish on a Sunday.

 

Laws that have never been rewritten (or changed because there was no need to).

 

I'm sure there are a lot more out there.

 

 

If all else fails, kick them where it hurts and SOD'EM;)

It is also illegal to enter Parliament wearing a suit of armour which (obviously) increases the risk of dying there

In accordance with The Tax Avoidance Schemes Regulations 2006, it is illegal not to tell the taxman anything you don’t want him to know, though you don’t have to tell him anything you don’t mind him knowing. I mean, WTF?!

My advice is based on my opinion, my experience and my education. I do not profess to be an expert in any given field. If requested, I will provide a link where possible to relevant legislation or guidance, so that advice provided can be confirmed and I do encourage others to follow those links for their own peace of mind. Sometimes my advice is not what people necesserily want to hear, but I will advise on facts as I know them - although it may not be what a person wants to hear it helps to know where you stand. Advice on the internet should never be a substitute for advice from your own legal professional with full knowledge of your individual case.

 

 

Please do not seek, offer or produce advice on a consumer issue via private message; it is against

forum rules to advise via private message, therefore pm's requesting private advice will not receive a response.

(exceptions for prior authorisation)

  23. A hackney carriage (i.e. taxi) driver must (still) carry a bale of hay and a bucket to feed and water his horse [Thanks to Paula Wilde for reminding me of this one]
  24. It is illegal for a London taxi driver to take more than one day off work in any week unless he gives 10 days notice (presumably to the licensing authority).
  25. It is also illegal for a London taxi driver to pick up a passenger who flags him down, although he is permitted to display an illuminated sign saying he is available.
  26. Also in London you may not carry a plank, pole, ladder, wheel, hoop or tub along the footpath, although you can carry it across the path to load it into a vehicle.
  27. Children in London are forbidden to play any game, fly a kite or slide on ice or snow in the street.
  28. Under a 1906 act of Parliament it is illegal to go to a fancy dress party dressed as a soldier or sailor.

However, if one wants to leave the post, he applies for (and is automatically granted) the Stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds, which is a job with no duties or pay but which makes him ineligible for membership of Parliament.

The Chiltern Hundreds is what is known as a 'rotton borough'. It has no registered constituents, no legal land ownership within the defined area and was created by Parliament to stick troublemakers into until they knew what to do with them... people 'under suspicion' could be assigned there too - all goes back to the Reformation days. Another one was Gatton near Reigate in Surrey,

 

(I did parliamentary history as a project at school in the dim and distant 70's.... still remember huge amounts of it!)

Sodem, are you sure about number 11? Do they have a lot of tropical fish in Liverpool?!:madgrin: and I need number 21 explaining please:???:

 

21 roughly translated means do not let your dog roger the Queen's deer/swans etc.! (i.e. keep it on a lead!) :-)
