    • Better version attached with the late appeal explained more clearly for the judge. This will sound silly, but I think it would be a good idea to e-mail it to the court and UKPC on Sunday.  It's probably me being daft, but Sunday is still March, and as it's late, sending it in March rather than April will make it sound like it was less late than it really is.  if you get my drift. You can still pop in a paper version on Tuesday if you want. E-mail address for the court: [email protected] And for UKPC: [email protected]   [email protected] Defendant WS.pdf
    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. 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. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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,

 

i have recently applied for a job on which they did a credit check. i had one defualt on my file that they said would need to be satisfied before i could continue with my application.

After getting in touch with the DCA that now held the debt, we came to an arrangment for a partial settlement. the DCA specifically told me that the file would be marked as satisfied. This was all done over the phone.

I then did a bit of research and felt like a right idiot :-S

 

My question is: if the DCA put a partial settlement marker on my file, is there anything i can do to remove it? and also, if the file is marked as anythin but satisfied and i can get a copy of the recorded call, can i take any action against them?

 

thanks in advance!

If you're relying on the dca to supply you with a copy of the 'recorded call' then I'd forget it, it just wont happen. Sure they say that the calls are being recorded

but I've never seen one of them reproduce a call yet. You've learned the hard way to never call a DCA on the phone, they'll tell you one thing but mean something else.

Everything and anything should always be done in writing and when you send them something send it recorded delivery etc..

 

If you've partially settled the debt then your credit file in truth is marked correctly and why would a DCA want to remove it?

 

I'd be looking at the potential employer and questioning them checking your credit file and wanting you to take action on it before they consider the application further?

What was the job for?

it was for direct line, selling pet insurance, but as its part of rbs, they do a credit check on u. they said that due to the amount of the debt being small, they could continue my application if i settled the account, (for debts over £500, they just decline the application) so i settled, now i just need to get a letter from DCA saying so. i have asked for a letter, and was told that they would send one. it should arrive within the next few days, i will keep you updated.!

 

i feel like such an idiot now, i was just so desperate to get the job, ive only been unemployed a month and already im going crazy!!

I guess I'd want a firm offer of a job before I paid any bills/debts/credit card bills off....I can see it now, you settle your account, get the info back to show you have

and then the potential employer declines your application for a job with them and you're out of pocket having paid a credit bill off...and if you're unemployed it may

be money you could have done without spending etc....

 

Was the debt with rbs or an affiliated company then?

no, not an affiliated company. the woman said the job was mine as long as i paid the debt off. when i did, she said as soon as i got confirmation, then she would put a copy in my file and i could start in beginning of december. now im just waiting for a letter from DCA.

first it was the dca, then i contacted british gas, and confirmed all the details with them, and they all matched up. but they said they had sold the debt on, and werent able to take any action on it, so i had to go back to the dca.
