    • You have of course checked the car is now taxed and the £68 is stated against  the same reg?  If the tax for the same car did over lap, then I can't see you having an issue pleading not guilty Dx

    • Afternoon all Looking for advice before I defend claim for car tax payment that the DVLA claim I owe £68 from an idemity claimback from my bank and unpaid tax  brief outline. Purchased car Jan 30th ,garage paid the tax for me after I gave them my card details  first payment £68 out in Feb 24  followed by payment of £31 from March due to end Jan 24 Checked one of my vehicle apps and about 7-10 days later car showing as untaxed? No reason why but it looks like DVLA cancelled it , this could be because I did not have the V5 and the gargae paid on my behalf but not sure did not receive a letter to say car was untaxed.  Fair enough I set up the tax again staight away in Feb 24  and first payment out Mar 31st , and each payment since has come out each month for £31 , this will end Feb/Mar 2025, slightly longer than the original tax set up, all good. I then claimed the £68 back from my bank as an indemity refund as obviously I had paid but DVLA had cancelled therefore it was a payment for nothing?  Last week recieved a SJP form dated 29th May stating that DVLA were claiming for unpaid tax and a false indemity claimback which of course is the £68. It also stated that I had received two previous letters offering me the oppotunity to pay that £68 but as I had not responded it was now a court claim that I must admit guilt for or defend. My post is held for weeks at a time from Royal Mail ( keepsafe) due to me receiving hospital tretament at weeks at a time that said I did not receive any previous letters from DVLA. I am happy to defend this and go to court but wondering what CAG members think? In summary I paid an initial amount of £68 and then a DD of £31 , tax cancelled  I set up a new DD at £31 a month all in the month of Feb 2024, I claimed the £68 back from my bank. DD has been coming out each month without issue and I have paperwork to show the breakdown for both DD setup's plus bank statements showing the payments coming out . The second DD set up has extended payments up to Feb/Mar 2025. DVLA claiming the £68 was ilegally claimed back despite the fact they cancelled the original DD for reasons unknown. Is this defendable ? I will post up documents including the original DD conformations

    • 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.

Ok guys, ill try and get right to the point, yesterday [friday] at 1 aclock, i rang up for a crisis loan, i went through the process over the phone, he asked me all the questions etc, then asked me how id like to be paid, i said my bank account, he took the details etc, he called me back in 10 mins, and said my application for a loan was a sucsess i can have 58.65, he said it will be in my account within the next 3 hours, end of call..so i went for a nap, by the time i woke up it was late..so i decided to wait till today [saturday] to go and collect my crisis loan from my bank, and buy some shopping and pay some bills, well i went to the cash machine, and what a surprise..nothing was in there...no 58 pound, absolutely nothing, apart from the 5 pound i had in from my previous jsa payment, and yeah, im desperately ineed of some money, and the worst thing is, its Saturday, the jobcentre are not open..and nor are they open tomorrow, so guys i know its a long shot but..i have 2 questions..1.has anyone experienced this before, and what could have been the reason? maybe he put down the rong bank details during the process? or a glitch in the system.,.2.is there anything i can actually do today, to find out where my money is? or do i have to wait it out, be hungry, and have no heating, until i call them up on Monday????

i doubt anybody here can answer your question, as far as i am aware there is no way to contact the dwp at weekends, have you tried asking your bank if there is a credit waiting to go into your account?

I can only agree and try asking at the bank if there is a credit due to go in or not.

The Crisis Loans section won't re-open now until Monday.

Do you have any friends or family members that you could ask to help you out over the weekend?

I don't mean to sound funny either but you state you had £5 left from your previous payment can you withdraw that directly from the bank at least you could get some basic food items with that.

Guest jsa12

you should have arranged picked up a giro from the job centre,this is usually after a certain time pm and taken it to your nearest post office.

 

its always handy to just keep a little for a few days' food,as you have found out like many of us.

yeah i usually do pick it up from jsa office, and then go to post office and cash it, but this time he give me the choice..post office..or bank account i choose bank account, as it saved me walking all the way down to the jobcentre then all way in town..as this way i could just go to local cash machine and draw the money out...hmm would my bank tell me if there is cash waiting to go in?, also could one of you nice guys give me the exact number i should ring, my bank is halifax

that's what i thought Vicky i found it strange myself, but that's the two options he give me..i just called them, and guess what, apparently there was a problem with my payment..absolutely ridiculous honestly, if i diden't call them today, id literally be sat waiting for ever.., basically she said your application was successful, but then some where down the line something went wrong, we apologize for this, then she said, you will have to be issued with a new payment, we will give you a call with in the next 2-3 hours, and hopefully your money will be put in to the account without any further problems..ffs ive been waiting since friday...its now monday, and still its not 100% sorted out anyways thankyou x

All I can suggest is keep pestering them. I know it seems like this will make things worse, but it doesnt. Unless you keep on at them they wont rush it, why should they? Its not them left with no money. Or thats how it certainly seems the attitude is anyway.

 

I would also suggest asking them if it is possible to get a giro counter payment instead of a payment into your bank.
