    • Hi Sorry for uploading them wrong. Im not technical at all and self taught so bear with me as im trying my best. Thank you for all the info regarding the signs, this was my thoughts as well. Yes they have changed teh signs since this happened Ill ahve to have a look back through and see if when I took the pictures they were already the new ones or I have the old ones. I cant remember off hand. With regards to Europarks running the site now, Just to make you aware there is another small retail park just across the road and Im sure they are Europarks. The shops within that park are just Aldi and B & M. The site that we received the NTK has a few more shops, Home bargains, The food Warehouse, M & S food and a few others. I put these for identififcation purposes just in case it is the other site that you were looking at. The main entrance sign is on the bend on the left as you drive in the entrance so when you drive in from the right and turn in you can see it in front of you but if you drive in from the other way as we do then you dont see it unless you know its there and as you say you would have to stop to read it al anywayl. The main thing that always jumped out at us was FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in large letters. Please find the notice of hearing date attached and an offer letter I received from the vultures DCBLegal this morning,    notice of allocation group nexus.pdf vulture offer letter re group nexus.pdf
    • Good Afternoon Stu,  Many thanks for your reply. I will do as you suggest and email them for the exact terms. I shall have a look through the Tenancy Agreement too  myself  
    • You need a back up plan. If you believe that redundancy is very likely, start looking at other employment options.  Don't leave it until you have been made redundant before looking for new employment. I regularly speak to people who have been made redundant and about mental health. Those who have a positive plan, get into employment quickly following redundancy and manage to maintain their finances. Those who don't have a plan, decide to accept redundancy and a period of unemployment. They end up in a downward spiral, with redundancy money spent, debts accumulated, mental health decline and difficulty finding new employment.  
    • Interested observer here as I'm in a similar situation. People become conditioned into seeking and maintaining a perfect credit score/file, but if your situation is that you're unlikely to obtain further credit for the foreseeable future anyway due to your other outstanding debts, then tanking your credit file now won't make a difference other than you've took back control of your finances.
    • Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for their help in this matter. Since my last post I have received a reply from Plymouth Council Insurance Team concerning my wife’s accident (please see enclosed letter and photo of the offending Badminton post) which they deny any responsibility for the said accident. I feel that the Council is in breach of their statutory duties under the following acts: The Leisure Centre was negligent in its duty of care and therefore, in breach of the statutory duty owed under section 2 of the Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957. Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 (the Act) to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all their employees, and others who might be affected by its undertaking, e.g. members of the public visiting the Leisure Centre to use the facilities. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 that requires employers to assess risks (including slip and trip risks) and, where necessary, take action to address them. The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) require the risk to people’s health and safety from equipment that is used at a Leisure Centre be prevented or controlled. I would like some advice to see if my assumptions are correct and my approach to obtaining satisfactory outcome to this matter are accurate. Many thanks   PLM23000150 - Copy Correspondence.pdf post docx.docx

    • 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

Urgent advice needed on this one. I have now received a letter (well I say a letter) more like a claim form from Southend county court re: tessera portfolio management ltd claiming £879.57. I presume this is a CCJ claim. I do not know about this debt but it could have been from my student days. The student advisory service dealt with all my creditors at the time and helped me pay off my debts. If this is from then it would be statute barred as I have not paid any moneys to or acknowledged any debt since May 2004. My credit reference report is clear. The only credit I have had and is run properly is my student overdraft in all that time. What should I do?

How long have they had the debt and have you told them its in Dispute?

If so send them a CCA and the OC a Sar request

Hi The Godmother

 

Should I send them the SB letter as well? Advice in filling out the form would be much appreciated. From what I have read elsewhere I should fill in the Acknowledgement of Service form first to ask for more time to defend. What would be my defence? that it is statute barred and have not got any knowledge of debt or any prove that money is owed?

I have not corresponded with them but I did receive a letter from them at the beginning of April saying their solicitors were going to take me to court.

You have it in one.

Acknowledge the claim then send a CPR request, same as sar, to the claimant on the papers give them 7 dyas to get u the info. If they dont then tell the courts this is SB and they are abusing the courts system to get money they are not entitled to. Also u mentioned the student advisory service was helping you with all your debts. Can u contact them in relation to this and see what document they have left in relation to you, they may not have any but then u dont know if u dont ask.

So I send tessera a CPR request and the SB letter stating they have 7 days to reply. Fill in the Acknowledgement of Service form, ticking that I intend to defend all of this claim. Then after the 7 days send off form N9B (received with claim) defence of claim. On that form it asks in section 3 my defence. What would I put in there?

Section 5 asks whether I am making a counterclaim, do I leave it blank? or can Imake a claim for my time?

No.

 

U need to send the courts the acknowledgement of service ticking defend all. this then gives u 28 days from date of service to respond. U may also want to photo copy it and send a copy with the rest of the stuff u are sending the claimant.

 

To the claimant you need to send a cpr request to the claimant, tessera, advising them they have 7 days to respond to you. then once the 7 days are up wait a couple of days due to postage and if nothing recieved then sumbit a defense saying the claimant, tessera, has not responded to your CPR and you belive the debt is statue barred as you have not recieved any letters or acknowledged any debt since may 2004 you may want to add that it was paid off via the student finance company who was helping you if this is true.

 

Its up to you if you want to send a SB letter but you may not want to show them your defence b4 they recieve it.

Unfortunately, neither I or the Student Advisory Service have any paperwork from back then. I have contacted them and they say they don't hold anything for more than 6 yrs. I have moved house a couple of times since leaving uni and most of any sort of paperwork as been lost along the way. I have nothing else to go on because they dont state on their claim who the original creditor was. Just that they are claiming this money for account no 22#######. I can't even say whether I had credit with whoever it is back then because of this.

I have not had any sort of credit or paid any money since the latest 2004 may have even been before then. Except my student overdraft which I still have now and run properly. I have only just got a contract phone and check my credit reference report regularly and that is fine.

Ok thats feesable to hthink they have nothing especially after 6 years, due to laws u see, Also feesable for u but some people would say u should have kept it all.

I am guessing u dont regonise the account number from ur previous debts. Keep an eye on the credit report even think about checking other credit companies, experian, equifax etc as they dont all report to the same one.

Hi

Good news I think:) !!!!!

Received a letter from Tessaras Solicitors today stating that they are ceasing legal proceedings based on my defence and that they would need time to seek additional information from the vendor. They have enclosed a signed copy of the Notice of Discontinuance.

Is that the end of it do you think?

Thanks for your help much appreciated.

Check with the courts. The courts should have a phone number u can call and as result they can tell u if the discontiunance is true
