    • Daft question - but you filed the defence on-line on MCOL as dx indicated, right?
    • We looked up the e-mail address so communications would be in writing.  If you do stuff on the phone the other party can just deny the contents of the conversation.  They can't deny what's written in an e-mail. So time to sort Pete out.  Check the following for accuracy and change anything I've got wrong.  Then e-mail Pete this evening.  I was thinking of threatening the pub with legal action but let's initially be nice.   Dear Pete, Re: PCN no.XXXXX, claim form no.XXXXX on 23 July 2022 I was a customer at your pub and I attach proof of purchase. I was picking up my cousin Ms XXXXX and her family as she was working as a cook with you at the time.  I entered the pub through the back door, went to the bar, and ordered a drink and a meal.  At no point did any bar staff alert me that I needed to add my registration number or did I see any signs advising me to do so.  I then took a seat outside in a small seated area so I could chat to my cousin while waiting for her to finish work.  We were joined by the management of the pub and bar staff during my time waiting  I was shocked a few days later when I received a demand for £100 from Civil Enforcement Ltd.  i contacted the pub and was told "don't worry, it's not enforceable". Well, that information turned out to be nonsense because I have now received a county court claim form from CEL. I contacted the pub again on XXXXX and was extremely disappointed to be told "there's nothing we can do". Of course there is something you can do.  You are the organ grinder.  You called CEL in.  You can call your dogs off.  Your pub has absolutely superb reviews on Google Maps regarding the way in which you treat guests.  Do you really think customers should be dragged to court?  I'm sure you don't. I am therefore requesting that you intervene and instruct CEL to cease court action. Yours, XXXXX

    • 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.

Hmm, not sure - they may be trying to scare you, or their claim hasn't reached the court yet.

 

Anyway, send them the letter I have affixed. Make sure you send it by recorded delivery and keep a copy together with the receipt for posting. Check on the Royalmail website in a few days to print off the signature receipt. Keep all together in a file in case you need it if they do issue a claim for possession.

 

Make sure you keep to the arrangement you made with them.

Did you ring the court to see if your case was listed for 26th March?

 

When do you expect to hear about your payment coming down?

rang the court on monday still no listing and the libor rate has come down so on 1 feb it should go down but they dont usually let me know the amount until the middle of the month.do you think i should offer them yth 100 per week and just say mortgage payment on 15 every month ommiting the amount or just send the offer to pay and send budget shheet later.would it be ok to lower the payment after only arranging it a few weeks ago? wont the judge think i keep making false promises.everytime i call them i seem to make offers that are unreasonble

(i seem to think im loaded.)so im not going to phone them anymore just do it all trough letters.

OK, wait until you have got the notice of new payment and then you will know exactly what you can afford to pay towards the arrears.

 

Do you have the original case number from before when the hearing was cancelled - it will be the same case number.

Staffyloo, please don't panic - every case is different - you haven't been to court yet so you haven't defaulted on a court order.

 

You can send the letter to Capstone offering £100 per week towards the arrears (are you sure you can manage that?) in addition to the normal monthly payment. If the normal payment goes down and you keep to the £100 per week towards the arrears you will be keeping to your arrangement to pay off the arrears.

 

If you read through more of the threads in the Repossession forum you will see that eviction is very rare.

Tell them next time they phone that 'as it is now a court matter you want everything in writing' and put the phone down on them.

 

It sounds as if they may be trying to pull a fast one to get you to pay more money - have they sent you a statement yet?

yes i think for at least the next 6 months do you think i can reveiw after that if say the mp goes back up to 1900 a month again?

as for this forum it has become my lifeline i read and reread all the threads and am so grateful to you for helping me.

also i have noticed that alot of the threads are hearings with capstone.

I think if you maintain your payments for 6 months without fail and the mp goes up you would be in a good position to negotiate a reduced payment towards the arrears.

Yes, you need to include the budget sheet. Make sure the £100 per week you are offering towards the arrears is the amount left over after everything else has been accounted for.

 

Also, don't forget to send by recorded delivery and keep copies of the letter and budget sheet together with the receipt for posting.

phoned the court and gave them last years case number like you said and they told me i have a hearing on 26 march ,i asked why i had not been notified and they said it was booked from last year.

also spoke to capstone again today i phoned to see how much my mortgage payment will be from 1 apriland then told them i was just about to put an offer to clear the arrears in the post.the lady on the phone a=said they would not accept any payment offers only the one made over the phone. i said when i made the offer i hadnt worked out my budget properly forgetting that we had taken on a presser at the shop due to my husband hurting his knee in september so was taking less wages from the business although she understood she said unless i maintained the arrangement made over the phone they would go for a straight possesion.i did not post the letter .i dont know what to do now .help

Staffyloo - you need to send that letter by special delivery tomorrow - never mind what she said on the phone. You need to get that offer of payment to them - that way, if you need to go to court we can include that in your defence and say that you felt pressurised by them into making a higher offer over the phone.

 

Please post that letter tomorrow - it will show the judge that you have tried to negotiate with them.

 

We'll worry about your defence statement nearer the time.

Hi, we can do a statement for you to take to court for the hearing on 26th March, by that time we should be able to show the payment from this week and any that you make before then also. You will need to get a bank statement the week before the hearing just to back up that your cheques were cashed. Did you write your name and address and mortgage account number on the back of the cheque?

 

Check on the royalmail website in a few days to print of the signature receipt - keep that safe with the copy of the letter and cheque. Every time you send a cheque put a covering letter in saying

 

......................................................................................Your address

 

Date

 

Their Address

 

 

 

MORTGAGE ACCOUNT NO:

"Please find enclosed cheque noXXXXX for £100 being payment towards the above account number.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

 

 

XXXXX

 

Enc.

 

 

Keep a copy of every letter and cheque and also printed signature receipt from Royalmail. The more evidence you have of your payments the better.
