    • Hi and thanks It looks like they ticked all the boxes to me but I'll try and upload the notice. I was wondering if a witness to late delivery might be considered proof - I'm assuming they posted it as normal but Royal Mail stuffed up delivery. If not then they're really saying it just has to be posted within 12 days of the incident, regardless of when it is received. Annoying! edit ok thanks Honeybee here's my 2nd (actually 3rd) attempt at anonymising, copying and uploading the notice! Sorry about the state of it - I sat on it while distracted by my dog 🙃 pcn front.pdf pcn back page.pdf
    • ROFL - dont get upset just because someone (quite a lot of someones) dont want smart meters - well unless you get paid for it .. in which case ...   I assume you haven't been with Octopus long enough to be on one of the very long fixed price tariffs they offered before the prices went bonkers .. and that you dont use your electricity in the evening/lunch time if you think the 'agile type tariffs are good value .. let alone worth installing a smart meter for - high price a good disincentive for an evening cuppa eh? Let alone all your computer/tv etc time in the peak price evening or lunch time. - and boy do those peak prices instantly hammer your bill when those Russian and middle eastern issues kick off.   I would only have considered a smart meter if solar panels had been an option for me - but roof is oriented completely the wrong way. Oh - and My opinion hasn't changed since the smart meter trials 40 years ago, because neither have the issues (well not enough) but I'm happy for you. Be happy for me.
    • Hi. I'm afraid I've had to hide your post with the pdf files to keep this anonymous for you. You've left the PCN reference number and your car reg showing. Could you edit that and repost please? HB    
    • Well naturally if you want to maintain your outrage, and retain something to bitch about, then arguing about the level of your fixed monthly DD is the way to go. You are of course perfectly free to ignore the easy solution.
    • His financial situation isn’t great, and the landlord has made lots of things up. The things he’s put isn’t true at all. My friend did tell the full truth with incoming and outgoing, I helped him fill in his form and he checked bills etc. to make sure it was right. His wage is ok, but not as good as the landlord thinks it is,  and he doesn’t have anything spare. How much are they likely to take from him? Should he send any reply?  the letter just says to take the court letter with him.

    • 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.

Guest ian cognito

Good morning, I trust the world is a brighter place today :)

 

I think Surley had reasons for going, I also think his work gave the CRAs and ICO too much info to prepare themselves for others to follow. Every argument that has been won in this matter has been susequently lost when they have had time to work out a strategy.

 

I also think most companies would rather back down at the 11th hour than to risk losing a case and having to act positively in all following cases, not many would have hung in with your grit and determination.

 

For what my opinions are worth of course...........

 

And a very merry christmas to you and your gang :D

actually mine hasn't been as bad as I feared,

 

two books and a dvd (2 of which I already own) is an improvement on previous years! (although the key ring organiser makes the all time 'list')

 

kids stayed in bed 'till 8:30 - massive improvement!

 

got 2 bacon sarnies for breakfast.... now we're getting somewhere.

 

grandparents appeared to have found some restraint in terms of huge plastic toys for the kids - although the 'swingball' was an eyebrow raiser i must confess.

 

off to visit parents in law first - not bad, they're both deaf and blind (practiacally) which makes kids showing them pressies a bit of a laugh!

 

then my parents for christmas lunch - am improvement on previous years, although how lancashire stodge has failed to conquer the UK market I'll never know.

 

the plastic santa on a prachute that responds to 'claps' was another high point...

 

back home, first pint is finished, second one half way down and I appear to have survived!

 

Although Aardvark's in trouble with his suprise bag of pressies (we hadn't reciprocated deep shame :oops: )

 

although Aardvark's pressie of a book called 'timewasters letters' is an inspired selection, can't think what gave him that idea... :D

 

pleasently suprised that Brother & wife and Aunty Margaret & Uncle Tom had not made it to parents for xmas lunch.....

 

apparantly Aunty Margaret & Uncle Tom have fallen out with my mum and dad since Grandad's funeral, and just because, make sure i get this right wars have been fought over less, Because Mum & Dad invited uncle Michael and his wife to Grandads funeral and insufficent grieving was apparent (!) anyway, net result, no Margaret & Tom for xmas dinner.... Result! (it's complicated up north y'know ;) )

one of the plus points for looking after Wigan Council's feedback section of their website is the annual - omg I can't believe they said that.....

 

here are the highlights from this year....

 

 

I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do something about the noise made by the man I have on top of me every night.

 

 

 

Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife.

 

I have had the Clerk of the Works down on the floor six times, but I still have no satisfaction.

 

This is to let you know that our lavatory seat is broken and we can't get BBC2.

 

My bush is really overgrown around the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it.

 

...and he's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take any more.

 

...that is his excuse for dogs mess that I find hard to swallow.

 

want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off

 

 

I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage and their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence.

 

I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off.

 

My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand.

 

I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.

 

Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant. We are getting married in September and she would like it in the garden before we move house.

 

I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.

 

50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and the rest are plain filthy.

 

I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers.

 

The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared.

 

Will you please send a man to look at my water, it is a funny colour and not fit to drink.

 

Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces.

 

Would you please send a man to repair my spout. I am an old age pensioner and need it badly.

 

I want to complain about the farmer across the road; every morning at 6a.m., his cock wakes me up and now it's getting too much for me.

 

The man next door has a large erection in the back garden, which is unsightly and dangerous.

Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would like a third, so please send someone round to do something about it.
