    • quite usual for couriers to swap parcel contents, though it could have been done by someone at the 1st address before it got to where it should have .... ebay. just to clarify as you seem to be not understanding/reading some posts correctly.   you should always ignore a dca totally unless you ever get a letter of claim in the post. you never ever ring a DCA.. they LIE. no!! no!! they dont own the debt, their txt says our client ebay. only the OWNER of a debt can take you to court. and ebay dont do court. i find it quite amazing that you have numerous threads about ebay/paypal regarding issues since you joined in 2011 but have never read any of the advice previously given. dx    
    • so where are the one with this HMTL link? and when were they sent.? pdf's merged and properly named. dx  
    • Hi Just had a wee look at your PDF and nothing really to add. Now as for the Court Fees if these are in there Claim then that is for the Judge to decide whether they accept the recovery of Court Fees in the Claim. If recovery of Court Fees are not in the Claim and they try to recover these via your deposit then you dispute this with the Tenancy deposit scheme your deposit is protected in and point out these costs should have been in there Court Claim which they failed to do and is there error.  
    • The postcode is an important point. You cannot be in two postcodes at the same time and the contract only covers the F area and not the E area where Met placed your car. See there is some   advantages in with idiots.🙂 The other fact about the electric spaces is that as you are not allowed to park there, the sign is prohibitory so cannot  offer a contract anyway. and another biggie in your favour is you were not the driver and the PCN does not comply with PoFA. I had another look yesterday at the PCN and there is another error since it does not say that the driver is responsible to pay the charge during the first 28 days. Schedule 4 Section 9 [2][b] (b)inform the keeper that the driver is required to pay parking charges in respect of the specified period of parking and that the parking charges have not been paid in full; so that is another nail in their coffin and it s something I would include in  your WS since that is one that every Judge would accept as a failure to comply. As far as their WS is concerned some of them leave it to the last minute to prevent Defendants being able to counteract their claims. However if they leave it too late [ie after the stipulated time] you can email yours to the Court on the last day and complain at the bottom of your WS that you have not received it and therefore you are asking the Court not to accept their WS. In your case it isn't that important since you have a virtual walkover in Court. I would be surprised if they don't concede beforehand. It is a lost cause for them. Not that I would advocate parking in their electric bay in future with a petrol driven car again.🙂
    • I think the post code 0 v O is nonsense personally and would just annoy the judge.  Cases are decided informally at small claims and judges are not interested in the weakest of trivialities. Understood re FY v EY.  So add to the Unfair PCN section that the PCN includes the wrong post code and places you at a residential area rather than the car park in question. You should wait till 7 June before filing your WS - as a Litigant-in-Person you wont't be penalised for being a day late - to see if MET's WS turns up.  It will also give you a chance to see if they have paid the hearing fee.  If it doesn't turn up you can attack them for defying court directions.  If it does turn up you can ridicule their arguments.  Win win. Also you can see if they have bottled it - which they have done with the last two cases we have here. I think the exact points of your WS have become a tad confusing - and I have heartily contributed to the confusion! - so can you please add the latest version.

    • 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.

You could try to renegotiate the terms of the TO but its a safe bet they wont agree considering its inclusion already.

They have security by means of the TO anyway they are just short cutting the process and edging their bets.

If you refuse they proceed, chances are they will get the CCJ and subject to your financial position it may not be a forthwith

it could be installments on that amount.(And if not you can apply for installments)Are you happy to gain a CCJ with affordable payments but with no CO/Restriction

or accept their carrot on a string no CCJ but a CO/Restriction threat? Just be careful the carrot isn't a stick of dynamite.

I know that they have stated that it will sit in the schedule and not be applied unless you default in which case that option may seem more inviting to you rather than a CCJ.I just want you to be sure of what you may be agreeing to.

Vicky if you cannot arrange to see a brief you could phone National Debtline and inquire to what has been offered.They are quite savvy on those matters.

Thanks AndyYou have helped so much I dont want to screw it up more than I already have. Okay I think the best way forward is to get a CCJ and take a chance that I can pay with installments. I guess I have nothing to loose as if they order forthwith then chances I will get a CO which I will anyway with Tomlin.I have two young children so they are unlikely to order a sale (I hope)My credit rating is trashed so a CCJ wont make any difference I suppose.

Do I now just write to them and say I want you to apply for a summary judgement and I'll drop my defence ( which they have already asked me to do to bargain) however should I state I do not agree to a VCO and let the court/judge decide what happens?x

The TO would be perfect for you but they have included a nasty threat which there is absolutely no need to include and I consider vexatious

Hi Andy I have been ill and not able to post. The National Debtline said because of the amount of debt it is highly likely they will apply for a forthwith order should I go down the CCJ route. So although it isnt guaranteed it is highly likely I am going to end up with a CO.They said it is not normal practice but the CO in the TO but not uncommon.I am going to write like you said to them and see what they say. I have nothing to lose now.Can you help with any pointers that I could put in the letter Andy?Vickyx

Hi Andy I have been ill and not able to post. Hope your getting better :-)The National Debtline said because of the amount of debt it is highly likely they will apply for a forthwith order should I go down the CCJ route.Likely but not assured and if they do you simply make application vis a N245 for installments So although it isnt guaranteed it is highly likely I am going to end up with a CO.Unless you can get the TO sorted They said it is not normal practice but the CO in the TO but not uncommon.There is no need for its inclusion the CCJ is their security I am going to write like you said to them and see what they say. I have nothing to lose now.Can you help with any pointers that I could put in the letter Andy?Vickyx

 

If the CCJ is of no relevance to you and you wont be requiring credit for at least 6 years proceed with the claim.

If how ever it is important to avoid a CCJ you need to crunch a consent order (TO) but pref without the equitable charge.

My credit rating is shot but if I can try get a TO without a CO then I suppose I am better off :)Is this OK- Ref/>xxxxx Thank you foryour letter dated xxxxx the contents of which have been noted.I have taken legal advice and have been informed that including an Equitable Charge within the TO is unusual.I would therefore be grateful if you can explain why you have done this?Once this is removed I will agree to the TO straight away.Yours xxxxxxx

Vicky we may have discussed this before but i can recall, If the debt is in your name only and your property is in joint names

then you need to consider the following:-

 

If you proceed and get a CCJ they have many hurdles to jump before they can then apply for an ICO and with view of the above

even if they do they will only get a restriction on your share of the property which in effect means naff all.

 

If you accept their consent order and I appreciate they would only proceed with the VCO if you was to default they may get a full blown charge on your property

as I have stated not sure how this stands with the joint ownership point or to whether your Mortgagee would in fact allow it.

 

With the above in mind I personally would proceed and not put my property in jeopardy I think they are being vexatious with this inclusion

and as already stated a TO with the correct schedule should be security enough. Asking them to explain why this inclusion will be going over old ground we know its security but this is wrong as no preference should be placed over any other creditors.I think a short note to acknowledge their offer of consent but unless the VCO is dropped you will not be able to settle matter.Maintain that you will be prepared for them to apply for an ICO in the event you should default and them successfully attaining a CCJ.

I'll try it and if no good will go down the normal route...Re xxxxx Thank you foryour letter dated xxxxx the contents of which have been noted.I acknowledge your TO however unless the clause which includes a Equitabe Charge is dropped I am unable to proceed with this.I look forward to hearing from youYours xxxxxx

Oh well retain all their responses and your offers, you will have opportunity to refer it to DJ

when he deliberates his decision and matter of costs.I personally would be more comfortable with the CCJ

than a VCO noose around my neck, if they do actually get one!!!!

 

 

Rule 44.5(3)(a)(ii) requires the court, in deciding the amount of costs to be

 

awarded, to have regard to the conduct of the parties, including in particular

 

"the efforts made, if any, before and during the proceedings in order to try to

 

resolve the dispute"

 

.

Should be along the lines of below this is how I draft them:-

 

 

The misuse of Tomlin orders causes further problems because draftsmen have little apparent idea of what goes in the order and what goes in the schedule. By definition, any order, as opposed to an agreement, must appear in the order itself. Thus, if money is to be paid out of court or costs are to be paid by either party to the other, those matters must be dealt with in the order proper.

 

IN THE XXXXXXXXXXXXX county court CLAIM NO: XXXXXXXX

 

Between Claimant

 

 

Claimant

 

and

 

 

Defendant

 

 

 

 

Tomlin Order

 

 

Upon the parties having agreed terms of settlement

 

 

BY CONSENT IT IS ORDERED THAT:

 

 

1. All further proceedings in this action shall be stayed upon the terms set out in the

the attached schedule, except for the purpose of carrying such terms into effect.

 

2. Each party shall have liberty to apply to the court if the other party does not give

effect to the terms set out in the schedule.

 

3.No order for costs.

 

 

Dated ......................... .......

 

We consent to the making of an order in the above terms

 

 

......................... .................

Sols for the Claimant

 

 

 

......................... .................

 

XXXXXXXxx,Defendant

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SCHEDULE

 

 

1. The Defendant shall pay to the Claimant the sum of £XXXXXXX in Full and final

settlement of this claim

 

2. No charges will accrue on the settlement sum

 

3. The Defendant will pay to the Claimant on or before xx xxxxx 2010 the sum of

£20.00 followed by payments of £20.00 on or before the xxth of each month and every

month thereafter until the balance has been paid in full.

 

4. If payment is not made on the due date the Claimant shall give notice in writing of such a

default to the Defendant and if payment is not made within 14 days from the date of such

notice the Claimant shall be at liberty to apply to lift the stay and proceed with the claim.

 

5. The amount of the monthly installment payment shall be reviewed at 12 monthly intervals. The defendant shall co-operate

with the Claimant on such review by providing the Claimant with such information about her assets income and expenditure,

as the Claimant shall reasonably request.

 

6.if following any review the Claimant and Defendant agree a new monthly installment amount, the new monthly installment shall become payable under

paragraph 3,with effect from the next installment date.

 

7.If following any review, either the Claimant or the Defendant considers a new monthly installment amount should be payable but cannot agree this with

the other party, either party shall be at liberty to apply to the Court for the Court to determine the monthly installment payable and thereafter the stay

and settlement contained in this schedule do continue.

 

 

That’s how you want the TO laid out and content Vicky if you come to an agreement (12mth month review if possible)

 

Andy

Yes Andy. It wouldn't scan but it looks like yours and seems in legal order.I do like your clause 6 & 7 in the schedule. Would you write back and suggest that be included or do you think it looks OK as it is?Honeyx

Ok no its fine, point 7 of my draft would kick in anyway even though is absent from your schedule.For them to

proceed they would have to make application to lift the stay and proceed and process the claim, they cant just click their fingers for judgment.

As long as the order contains point 2.

 

Sign it and dispense with this matter, and enjoy your Friday night:wink:

 

Well done and update your thread when its all rubber stamped.

Hi AndyCan you advise on my OH situation with same OC. For some reason they wouldnt agree to a TO with the same conditions as me so they got summary judgement as we dropped our defence. The CCJ was on 12th July.The thing is we havent heard from the court or solicitor about it. How do we find out what monthly payment has been ordered and try set at an amount that he can afford? Thanks Vicky x
