    • Ok you are in the clear. The PCN does not comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 for two reasons. The first is that in Section 9 [2][e]  says the PCN must "state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper— (i)to pay the unpaid parking charges ". It does not say that even though it continues correctly with blurb about the driver. The other fault is that there is no parking period mentioned. Their ANPR cameras do show your arrival and departure times but as that at the very least includes driving from the entrance to the parking space then later leaving the parking space and driving to the exit. It also doesn't allow for finding a parking spot: manoeuvering into it avoiding parking on the lines: possibly having to stop to allow pedestrians/other cars to pass in front of you; returning the trolley after finishing shopping; loading children disabled people in and out of the car, etc etc.  All of that could easily add five, ten or even 15 minutes to your time which the ANPR cameras cannot take into account. So even if it was only two hours free time you could  still have been within the  time since there is a MINIMUM of 15 minutes Grace period when you leave the car park. However as they cannot even manage to get their PCN to comply with the Act you as keeper cannot be pursued. Only the driver is now liable and they do not know who was driving as you have not appealed and perhaps unwittingly given away who was driving. So you do not owe them a penny. No need to appeal. Let them waste their money pursuing you . 
    • If Labour are elected I hope they go after everyone who made huge amounts of money out of this, by loading the company with debt. The sad thing is that some pension schemes, including the universities one, USS, will lose money along with customers.
    • What's the reason for not wanting a smart meter? Personally I'm saving a pile on a tariff only available with one. Today electricity is 17.17p/kWh. If the meter is truly past its certification date the supplier is obliged to replace it. If you refuse to allow this then eventually they'll get warrant and do so by force. Certified life varies between models and generations, some only 10 or 15 years, some older types as long as 40 years or maybe even more. Your meter should have its certified start date marked somewhere so if you doubt the supplier you can look up the certified life and cross check.
    • No I'm not. Even if I was then comments on this forum wouldn't constitute legal advice in the formal sense. Now you've engaged a lawyer directly can I just make couple of final suggestions? Firstly make sure he is fully aware of the facts. And don't mix and match by taking his advice on one aspect while ploughing your own furrow on others.  Let us know how you get on now you have a solicitor acting for you.

    • 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.

Good afternoon and I hope everyone has had a very Happy Easter!

 

I am about to start a claim at Money-COL for refund of PPI and wondered if this was appropriate:

 

The claim is for monies owed to the Claimant (Me) by the Defendant (Lloyds) pursuant to the mis-selling of Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) on agreement number XXX regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974. The Claimant claims the refund of PPI single premium payment on 1 XXX 2006, refund of PPI charges as part of monthly payments and interest pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement at the rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of judgment. The Claimant is also entitled to claim post judgment interest on the same terms. Full particulars of claim to follow in accordance with the CPR practice direction 7C (Para 5.2)

 

Not sure about the bit in bold as it seems to be the same as the sentence before but willing to keep it in if its appropriate.

 

Advice welcome (read needed) 8)

 

MadKit

 

Sorry to butt in but only just stumbled across this thread and was hoping you guys could aid my understanding.

 

You refer to a 'refund of the single premium payment on 1 XXX 2006' as well as 'refund of PPI charges as part of monthly payments'.

 

It may well be that I'm missing something - I often am - but aren't these two things one in the same?! For instance, if say, £2,400, ie £100 per month, is added to my two-year loan to cover the cost of the PPI then any refund concerns only the 24 payments of £100 and the interest thereon but not the £2,400 the PPI cost as I never actually parted with this money. Yes? No?

moneyproblem and pop_gun - as soon as the POC is through the claim process, I will certainly PM it to you. I want to make sure everything is in order with it first.

 

Fred Funk - this is how the formula works on the CAG spreadsheet.

 

Total Loan £20,000.00

PPI £4,000.00

Monthly Payment £250.00

% PPI each payment £50.00 20.00%

 

You would claim the single PPI of £4000 plus interest and also 20% of each payment and interest. If you use the CAG spreadsheet, it has all the formulas you need. You will need to apply the percentage to any payments you make to work out PPI portion of each payment.

 

I hope that makes sense.

 

And, why thank you Caro! :-)

Should be close to the 14 day acknowledge now.

In my case their Brighton Solicitors did this and also the defence.

Was later farmed out to Hammond in Brum.

They will use locals outside South East-but still be steering.

Apologies if I'm being a bit dim - it's entirely conceivable - but I'm still not convinced by your figures.

 

If the PPI accounts for 20 per cent of the total loan then I agree you should be seeking repayment of 20 per cent [ie £50] of each of the repayments you made plus interest.

 

But, surely, you can't also ask for repayment of the 4k the PPI cost as you never parted with this money in the first place?!

 

For instance, I'm currently looking at reclaiming some PPI on a hire purchase agreement. The PPI is shown separately; the cash price being £798.00 and the interest/charge for credit £447.12 making a total of £1,245.12. This equates to 48 payments of £25.94 [48 x 25.94 = £1,245.12]. I am, therefore, looking to reclaim each of these payments of £25.94 plus statutory - or even compound interest in restitution [on the basis of Sempra] - from the date of the payment until today.

 

I can't also ask for the £1,245.12 the PPI cost back as that, in effect, is asking for the same thing twice.

You may be right but this is the way I was told to work it out. If you look at the CAG spreadsheet, it should be self explanatory but again, this is the formula I have used to file the POC.

Take a look at post #72 on this thread:

steven4064, who is acknowledged as the authority on this kinda stuff, has agreed that, as I suspected, the template you have used is fundamentally flawed.

Lets see what happens with the court case before we start saying calculations or spreadsheets are flawed. Fred_Funk if you have been through this process and had PPI returned through the court, please post how you did this as I am sure that would really help everyone.

Whatever you might like to think, I'm trying to be helpful. Fingers crossed, your claim won't get as far as court but if it does then unless you amend your PoC, to reflect the fact that your figues are flawed, then you can, I think, be almost certain of losing [regardless of whether or not your PPI was actually mis-sold].

 

I looked at the spreadsheet and was 99.9 per cent certain it was incorrect but wouldn't have wanted anyone to take my word for it which is why I asked the member of the site team, steven4064, who's acknowledged as the leading authority on such matters to also take a look. If you want to ignore his advice then that is, of course, entirely your prerogative but would, I think, be ill advised.

 

I haven't yet got as far as court on PPI but did go down that route on bank charges and, I can tell you now, that if your PoC appear to demonstrate in any way whatsoever that you don't have a full grasp of what you're arguing the bank's legal team will use that as a basis on which to ask that the claim is struck out.

As for bank charges, I was very successful reclaiming these so do have a basic knowledge of how these things work and I believe you are trying to be helpful so I will tell you that I had help from more than one member of the site team preparing this POC and if they had thought I was totally wrong, they would have told me. I have never ignored the advice from them or others in the know and am not completely stupid and didn't go into this sight or site unseen! :-)

 

I don't believe that you saw my spreadsheet so I can't understand how you feel that my figures are flawed when you haven't seen them or indeed the spreadsheet I used. If I do have to amend the POC, so be it as I don't mind at least I have taken the step to reclaim and if others can learn from my success and any mistakes, then this is for the greater good of everyone on the site.

Hi there

 

Just noticed the "Choppy Waters" on this one.

 

I have no idea which spreadsheet Madkit has used so I can't comment on the specifics of that document.

 

What should be claimed is the monthly ppi repayment plus 8% statutory interest on each of those payments running from the date of each of those payments up to he date of claim. In addition you claim 8% stat int up to date of settlement.

 

Hope this helps clarify what should happen.

Agree wholeheartedly that we should save any aggro for the financial institutions!

 

Of course, you're right, I ain't seen your spreadsheet. I was going more by what you said in post #30 - which I took to mean you were seeking the return of the PPI premium and the proportion of your monthly repayments which was attributable to PPI, as well as s69 interest on both - and concluded you were using Bog's spreadsheet [which appears to adopt just such an approach]. If I'm guilty of putting two and two together and coming up with five then I apologise.

 

Just for the record, I agree unequivocally with what ims21 has written above but maintain that Bog's spreadsheet is horribly flawed.

 

Regardless, best of luck!

Fred_Funk

 

PS If you're so inclined, I'd be very interested in seeing your spreadsheet.

As I remember,a number of site team looked over the final draft of the POCS.

When we first saw it,there was some work needed,but this was changed.

I think its worth pointing out,that the defendants have poured scorn on the claim and think there is no cause of action.

It is unthinkable that any bank defence team can be dismissing arguments which are now well established facts.

Or to put it another way,the very same arguments,which the regulators themselves deemed were unacceptable and led not only to victory in the case brought by the OFT,but a wholesale cave in by those banks who were participants in miss-selling PPI policies over many years.

 

There is overwhelming evidence to support any PPI case which is brought,and relies on the clauses and unfair business practices these Banks were seen to have been employing.

 

And interestingly enough,the biggest seller of miss-sold policies,just happens to be Lloyds.

Hi there, thanks for asking. We are waiting for response from Lloyds and so far only one letter pretty much saying what Martin said above making no effort to settle. They have 2 weeks to send in AQ so I guess they will do that at the very last moment possible.
