    • I have just read the smaller print on their signs. It says that you can pay at the end of your parking session. given that you have ten minutes grace period the 35 seconds could easily have been taken up with walking back to your car, switching on the engine and then driving out. Even in my younger days when I used to regularly exceed speed limits, I doubt I could have done that in 35 seconds even when I  had a TR5.

    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.

I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7.

    • 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 all, hope your all okay, just wondering if you can give me some advice on these people.

 

Have 2 different amounts owed on two different accounts, dont even ask how i got into that situation its a long story lol...however i contacted them to advise i had taken some advice and sent them proposals of payments alongside my income and expenditure....

 

I have had to send this twice as they say they havent recieved it....the know how much ive proposing, they know im on maternity leave and this is the reason i have been unable to offer more etc.....they told me to simply wait for them to get back to me as my proposal paperword will be in the process of being dealt with...

 

I then got a phone call saying they still hadnt recieved it and in order for me to deal with them i would have to contact somebody to deal with on my behalf like a debt management company....I asked them why i would need to do this as I have sent them all the information that they would be sending them anyways and she just said they would prefer to deal with a dmp.......i dont see why or how this make any difference, can somebody please explain to me....they have put my accounts on hold for 14 days while i look into this, i dont feel the need to have a dmp as i have dealt with most of my creditors myself and am really doing well in setting up payment plans....

 

any help/advice would be great xx

Hi it seems that Barclays are very good at not receiving information when the information doesn't suit them, if you don't wish to be on a DMP then you don't have to. Just send them a reasonable payment for each debt, you don't have to send them income and expenditure forums if you do not wish to. If Barclays do not like the payments you are sending then it is up to them to do something about it.

Hi there, thanks for your reply....I didnt think i had to do a dmp, but they were quite insistent they wouldnt accept my proposals if i wasnt, I have definately been reasonable regarding my proposas and even told them i would be able to reivew the situation in 9 months time when i go back to work etc. Thanks for the advice. I think I will send the proposals again...one last time.....and then just start making my payments and if the have issues then they can get in touch with me..... such a mission with these people. Ive had hardly any problems with other creditors so far and been realy suprised at how easy things have been...theres always one though lol xx

They cant insist on you using a DMC you are perfectly within your rights to deal with it yourself and directly with the creditor.

 

Personally i dislike DMC as they charge you and less money goes to the creditor. There is no logical reason for them to ask you to use a DMC

 

BTW did you send everything recorded? if so you can prove delivery as it would be signed for.

thats what i thought, also setting up a dmp will just be even more hassle and time for both them and myself and i also thought that a dmp proposal would be less money than what im probably offering!

 

I didnt send them recorded!!! doh! but i am going to send them again this week recorded, i should have done it first time round but as i had been sucessful with others i didnt think id have problems espcially with a big organisation. obviously not! lol so do i not have to send income and expenditure or is it a good idea to back up my proposals?xx

good idea!! Also do you know who barclays pass their accounts to when they close them, at the moment they are still with the collections team but evern though they "havent recieved my proposals" and told me to get the CAB or a DMC involved and send them the proposals they said they probably would be able to accept such low payments but that when they close the accounts and send to their recovery agents they may be able to.....i just get told different things all the time but i have been writing all the conversations etc down so i know what rubbish they keep spouting off at me...are barclays notoriously difficult to set up payment arrangements with, baby due anyday now and would really like to sort it with them xxx

To be honest I think you'll find people have postive and negative stories to tell about all banks. I happen to have a friend who is having an absolute nightmare with Barclays and know of a couple of others, but I would imagine there are some good dealings out there as well.
