    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?

    • You could send an SAR to DCbl on the pretext that you are going for a breach of your GDPR . They should then send the purported letter of discontinuance which may show why it ended up in Gloucester and see if you can get your  costs back on the day. It obviously won't be much but  at least perhaps a small recompense for your wasted day. Not exactly wasted since you had a great win  albeit much sweeter if you had beat them in Court. But a win is a win so well done. We will miss you as it has been almost two years since you first started out on this mission. { I would n't be surprised if the wrong Court was down to DCBL}. I see you said "till the next time" but I am guessing you will be avoiding private patrolled car parks for a while.🙂
    • It is extremely disappointing that you haven't told us anything about the result of the hearing. You came here at the very last minute and the regulars - all unpaid volunteers - sweated blood trying to get an acceptable Witness Statement prepared in an extremely short time. The least you could have done is tell us how the hearing went, information invaluable for future users. Evidently not.

    • 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.

On reading through different cases/claims - is there a reason why some people seem to be offered money straight away with NatWest while the rest of us have to go through the lengthy process- it doesn't seem to make sense - do you think it depends on the branch?

Link to post
Share on other sites

It might possibly be the branch. In my claim I sent my first two letters to my local branch and received an offer after both of them.

 

Other people send their letters to the registered address and don't receive any sort of offer.

 

I don't think it really matters, as we all seem to be in it for the long haul anyway.

It's not a legal requirement to send Cobbetts a copy although it is a good idea.

As for sending copies of any correspondence, no need, you will have the opportunity to supply this with yor court bundle....if it gets that far.

Hello...gonna ask a thick question now.

 

Received notification today of the hearing date for my claim which is 23rd February 2007.

 

Also, in the court letter is the following para. which I don't understand.

 

The claimant having particularised her claim and the defendant having failed to particularise his defence, it is directed that the defendant shall submit with the copy documents and schedule in response to the schedule filed with the particulars of claim setting out in relation to each item disputed.

 

1. The contractual provision under which such charge is made.

 

2. The basis of calculation of the charge indicating where appropriate the cost of such items.

 

Ok, on Point 1, I presume Nat West would simply need to provided signed T&C's??

 

On Point 2, does this mean that the Judge is effectively asking Nat West for disclosure??

 

The court letter also, states that each party shall delivery to every other party copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing...

 

This is my court bundle....right???

 

Any one who can clarify this will get a great big kiss! (electronically of course!).

Hi Amanda,

 

Looking good now. Should soon be over.

 

Referring to your points.

1. Yes

2. Yes (but I'll be knocked down with a feather if they do!!)

3. Yes (I presume the order says to supply these within 14 days of the hearing? If that is the case, wait until the day that 14th day before supplying the bundle to the court as you may well have a settlement before then.)

 

Good luck

 

Steve

Hiya

 

Court Bundle Question please?

 

It doesn't look like there's a settlement offer coming my way, anytime soon. So, I've prepared the Court Bundle, found in the templates section.

 

I'll put in a covering letter to Cobbetts along the lines of......In accordance with orders given by Crewe County Court please find enclosed copies of all documents which I intend to rely on at the hearing on 23rd February at Crewe County Court.

 

Do I need to 'jazz' this up a bit. Started to word something stronger to Cobbetts - put it got too strong - if you know what I mean!!

 

Any suggestions to covering letter, just so Cobbetts are fully aware how determined I am.

 

Also - QUITE IMPORTANT- do I need to address their defence at all at this stage???

 

 

Thanks very much.

As well as above another question about court bundles

 

I take it if I want to mention or refer to previous court cases such as

 

1. Murray v Leisureplay [2005]

2. Wilson v Love [1898]

3. Lordsvale Finance PLC v Bank of Zambia

4. Bridge v Campbell Discount Co. Ltd. (1962)

5. McAlpine v Tilebox

 

as well as

 

Dunlop v New Garage

 

Do I have to enclosed the entire details of each case, or will the salient points be enough??

NOW WHAT....

 

Court bundled needed to be in with the Court & Cobbetts by today, so I dropped one copy at the courts yesterday and another copy to Cobbetts.

 

I've not had copies of Cobbetts documents, nor has the courts??? Don't understand what Cobbetts are up to.

 

Either cobbetts copies will arrive on Monday - which technically is later than the 14 days they courts ask for them in, and then that means they're going to defend in court - doesn't it.

 

Or are they up to something else I haven't thought off?

 

Anyone throw any light on this one for me please.

hi , i am no expertr as i am not at this stage however, i will wait until monday call the court to see if their court bundle has arrived. however, if it didn't arrived and the timescale set by the court has expired you could ask for their defence to be strucked out and maybe have a judgement made by default. however, this is a suggestion i have made you should better query that with someone who has more knowldege than me.

good luck with your claim:)

hiya, ANOTHER ONE WON.

 

Thanks for your response Phill123.

 

Phoned the courts to see if they had received Court Bundle - which they hadn't.

 

I did ask what would happen if Cobbetts did not sent theirs through (already late) and they advised it would be up to the judge to decide at the hearing whether or not to proceed ... which didn't seem right to me but who am I to argue with them!

 

Phoned Cobbetts instead to ask if they had/were going to send it and they couldn't find my file.

 

They phoned me back later... and told me that they had received a cheque (full amount inc costs & interest), which I received today.

 

Cobbetts don't half play hard - don't they! Anyway, another feather in banking customers cap - thanks to this site and all the great advice and support given.

I wss successful at claiming back charges & interest going back 6 years. However, I've been reading alot about people claiming back 6 years & beyond.

 

If I'm reading these threads correctly, can I put in another claim for 6+ years?

 

Any pointers in the right direction, greatly appreciated.
