    • The 3 pieces of mortar that fell on the same day, at the same time, were approx. 25-30cm long and weighed around ½-1 kilo each from a roof that is above the 2nd floor; they were by no means tiny pieces of mortar but large chunks falling from a rather great height. I believe the size and weight is enough to cause serious injury and if it falls on your head, I assume it could potentially be lethal if unlucky, but we don't wish to put that theory to test... We can't in good conscience let a contractor install a patio and a gazebo as it is in the exact spot where the mortar fell, nor do I think anyone would be willing to take the chance. Looking at the roof, there are multiple other remaining pieces from the same 'line' or 'row' of mortar that can potentially fall. The mortar is right underneath the slate tiles on the neighbour's roof and I don't know whether the tiles are also (becoming) lose due to the loss of the mortar. I was trying to upload a photo but it seems it's not allowed. The first contractor to work in our garden in preparation for the patio and gazebo is scheduled to start on 10th June, that leaves the neighbour 5 workdays to sort their roof which is unlikely, so it seems we will have to postpone our patio contractor without knowing when they can come back. We have already had extensive work done in the garden in preparation for the wedding reception and it will become very costly for us if we have to move the wedding reception to a venue (if we can even get one at this short notice) rather than have it at home which was our dream.
    • Is this sufficiant for a letter of claim  ? Letter Of Claim       Reference: Techzone Mobile Phones Samsung A71 Mobile Phone £140 Purchase date 29. 5. 24     I the claimant purchased a 2nd hand Samsung A71 mobile from Techzone Mobile Phone unit 10 of the indoor market at the Potteries shopping centre. Initially the phone worked well until I used the camera and found debris in the camera lens spoiling pictures making it not fit for purpose. I contacted the seller who offered a replacement which I initially accepted but later rejected and wanted a refund in full which the seller refused saying they Do Not give refund is unlawful and goes against the Consumer rights act 2015. Therefore I intend to issue proceedings against you in a county court without further notice unless you reimburse me the above amount in Full within 7 days from the date of this Letter     ------------------------------------------    I think its best if i hand him the letter as posting it might not get through so can claim expenses traveling up there ?   or would it be best to just post and get 'Signed for'  ?   Should i also put in the letter of claim interest added or leave that till the Particulars letter ?

    • Sorry to shatter your leftie dreams 🤣😂🤣😂     Donald Trump gets a SIX-POINT bump in approval after being found guilty on 34 counts according to snap Daily Mail poll: 'I think it was a waste of taxpayer money' WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK Teflon Don rides again, according to an exclusive poll for DailyMail.com which found that the guilty verdict in Manhattan... James Johnson, who conducted the poll, said Trump might be waking up as convicted felon but he was winning over the voters who matter.   Our snap poll of a representative sample of likely voters shows that for most Americans the trial has not changed their deep-set views of Trump,' he said.  'But amongst those who are open to changing their mind, people feel more positive by a margin of 6 points. That is outside of the margin of the error of the poll and we are saying that is significant. 'It extends to Independent voters too. Look at the explanations and it is clear why: people feel it was a politically motivated trial and view Trump as a "fighter" against what they see as injustice.

    • 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.

Having some serious problems with this company. in the application they ask you for your next payday, any human being would assume that they would collect money on payday! No not TXT loan they issue 7 day loans. Not once when i was doing the application did i see anything about this. There sly and devious! The loan is due today but my payday is the 24th like i put on application. Would there system not pick up that the loan would be due before i was paid.

I borrowed £100 paying back £110

Now as i have to leave the loan till the 24th they putting it up to £160 how can they justify an extra £50 for 7 days when original loan was £10 for seven days.

Anyone had dealings with this joke of a company??

Dear

 

Thank you for your mail, on the front page on our website it clearly states we are a seven day loan company, in the terms of agreement you should have read it clearly states there too we are a seven day loan. Furthermore on the day you received the loan it stated in the agreement your due date which is for seven days. You will need to ensure funds are available on the 17/12 as on the 24/12 the loan will be £160.

HOW CAN YOU JUSTIFY AN EXTRA FIFTY QUID FOR 7 DAYS

[email protected] |2010-12-15 21:10:28

SURELY A FURTHER 7 DAY EXTENSION WOULD BE 10 QUID SO TOTAL REPAYABLE WOULD BE 120 BASED ON ORIGINAL LOAN FIGURES

After seeking legal advice I would like to place this account in dispute. The first time I have seen your credit cycle is today. I only authorised you to collect 110 pound on the 24th anymore than that amount will be treated as a fraudulant transaction and theft. I have recorded date and time of this email stating what I authorise. Aswell as saving all correspondance.

They can take £110 only on the 24th they have been emailed and told this so hopefully thats all they do take if they take anymore I am going to reclaim it back as fraud and report them to police.

IM SORRY but apart from their charges there is nothing devious here. LOOK at their website it clearly states its a 7 day loan. there is like 4 bubbles, and it clearly says 7days. either you didnt look or you were desperate for cash.

 

I hate these companies, but this time the problem is self inflicted.

 

Also if i can add as well they asked for your pay date so if you default, they know when to hit your bank account.,

Whilst it must have come as a shock to you ,and i must admit the T.C,s can be easily overlooked when texting,i fear there is little you can do but pay up and keep smiling and learn from this oversight.My advice to you,as with anyone else thinking of taking out a payday loan would be,dont do it! It may seem tempting especially at this time of year to fund Christmas with what may seem like an easy 2 or 3 hundred,a little bit extra for presents,shopping or whatever,its all smiles while your spending it,but in most cases with an A.P.R of 12-1300% its Jan and Feb of next year when the reality of how expensive these loans are will really hit home.Use the experience as a hard earned lesson and keep away from payday loans if you possibly can.

Seeming as i have had a promt responce from all my other emails to you i assume you are ignoring the last message. I do belive that the email has been recived by yourself and you are choosing to ignore. This email will be onsidered to be acnoledged by yourselves even if i do not get a reply as its been sent on your secure support interface

Dear ,

 

Thank you for your e-mail.

 

We provide short term loans for 7 days only which is easily legible, prominent and presented in a way that does not require close examination on our website. Additionally you can find our credit cycle explained in more depth on Credit Agreement that you electonically signed when registering to our service.

 

We have discussed your outstanding loan with our Credit Committee and are willing to make an exception this time and agree that you can pay back the outstanding loan on 24th of November, 2010 as advised. Please note that we have waived off the added charges and put the loan on hold at £110 instead of £160. This will result your account to be temporarily closed for three-month period.

 

If you fail to follow the payment plan, it will result in the debt being forwarded in original full amount to debt collection agency without additional warning.

I dont think they are worried about exposure, i think they are just showing good customer service, which says somethings for these companies.

 

In future, when your desperate for cash, look at the website.

 

This company in your complaint have nothing to fear other than their unfair charges... in terms of their 7day loan, they make it crystal clear......

 

i have never used them as they are one of the most expensive on the web. most companies loan £100 at £25 charge for upto a month, whereas this company is in the region of £40-£50.
