    • Thanks all, I say all! Bazza you do seem to take great blithe pleasure in offending someone you’ve never even met before. I can confirm i’m not an ‘OP’, which I presume is short-form for ‘Old Person’! Well I guess my positive spin on events will have to be consigned to landfill and I am just going to have to go with the general consensus  landslide of opinion and pay it then. Fiddlesticks. Another little piece of soul given to an organisation I find anathema to me - that’s what hurts the most [starts sobbing]. Oh well, could be worse I guess I could a Man City fan defending the indefensible! Thanks again.

    • Hello, welcome to CAG. It would be a good idea for you to read other shoplifting threads here to get an idea of how this works. The police won't get involved now, so no chance of arrest. You need to avoid that branch of John Lewis for a while though. Basically, John Lewis's security people will give your details to either a firm like Retail Loss prevention or DWF solicitors who will then write to you with scary-sounding letters to frighten you into paying them some kind of penalty. They have no legal power and can't take you to court, only John Lewis can. Last time we saw a retailer in court against shoplifters, it went very badly for them and we haven't seen a case like that since - over 10 years ago. But you need to figure out why you did this. If you need support, talk to your GP and aske them. They will have heard it all before and won't judge you. Best, HB  
    • In addition to the information you've been given above, I suggest that you spend some time reading up on the stories on this sub- forum. There is a lot of information about suing as an entitled third-party. Take a couple of days – and by Monday you will be much more confident. More in control and you will have fewer questions to ask but the questions that you do think up will probably be more relevant and more interesting to your case. Do the reading. This is always an essential first step   Additionally please can you give us more details. What was the item, was it correctly declared, was the value correctly declared, what was the value that was declared? Very importantly what date did you send it?

    • 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 there, you need to enter the N244 at court asap in order to get a hearing in front of a judge to stop eviction. I can help you with this if and will need a little more information. As soon as you can get back here we can get started.

Hi, just need some background to the case - i.e. what was the reason for the arrears?

 

When was the suspended possession granted ? (did you attend the hearing)

Is the mortgage in joint names?

Do you have any children?

Did you write to the lender with your offer of payment?

 

You will need to send in a budget sheet with the N244 so the judge can see how you are going to afford to pay the arrears. I have affixed the one we normally use - it calculates automatically as you fill it in. The amount you are offering to pay towards the arrears is the amount left over after everything else has been accounted for.

 

I can also help you with completing the N244 form (copy affixed) and draft a statement which needs to go in Q.10.

Who is the lender?

 

Have you done the budget sheet yet? how much can you afford to pay each month towards the arrears in addition to the normal monthly payment.

Hi, could you go to the library and get on internet to print off the form and budget sheet? You will need the N244 form and budget sheet to hand in to court and also a photocopy of it all for yourself.

Hi, OK, affixed is another copy of the N244 - I'll give you the instructions for completing it once you have confirmed you can open it. I can also write a statement for you to go with Q.10 of the form which is the part where you need to state your case.

 

Best to print off two copies at the library in case you make a mistake on one when filling it in.

 

If at all possible you should take the forms along to the court this afternoon so you can get a hearing next week. There is a fee of £40 to pay when you take the forms in. If you are o benefits or low income you may qualify for fee remission.

OK, affixed is the statement to go with the form - you need to enter the details at the top where there are XXX's (remove the XXX's) the info will be on the eviction notice. Print off and sign.

 

These are the instructions for filling in the form:

 

1.Name

2. Tick Defendant

3. Suspension of eviction

4. No

5. Tick at a hearing

6. 15 minutes

Agreed by all parties: No

7. Write - Not applicable

8. District

9. Both Parties

10. Tick box for attached witness statement

Cross out all options except The Applicant Believes

11 Sign and cross out all options except Applicant

Sign and cross out all options except Applicant. Enter your address and contact details.

On the budget sheet – write the Claim number on the top left hand corner and Appendix 1 on the top right hand corner.

 

Now staple together the following

N244 - signed

Statement - signed

Budget Sheet Appendix 1

This is the pack you take to court. Make sure you have a copy of it all for yourself to take along to the hearing.

 

When you take it in to court they will give you a date and time for the hearing.

 

I will be on line for most of the morning if you need any further info, but I will not be able to log on this afternoon.
