    • all DYL's are subject to a TRO. looking at this newish, ever increasing as old ind units have gotten removed, estate, there are only lines on one side, on the other there is a parking lane with traffic calming through which you mention. i seriously doubt your mate has any clue what he is talking about.!! its not a private housing assoc estate. so its a public council owned road. no construction co can just decide to draw their graffiti on a road. the DYLs are certainly there pre 2016 even before his home was built. now ive had a quick look to see if the main access to royal park road has signs. there is no royle park road even on your map but there is a royal barn road which leads to where you are parked royal road has a restriction sign on the pole by the fence of the electric substation jnc with gipsy lane there does not appear to be one leading in from the other end - tesco petrol station
    • Hi All. I was driving in Stevenage down a 40 road after coming off the motor way, i noticed my car felt a little "weird" i accelerated, then slowed the car down.  Shortly after i got stopped by a manned police car with a laser. During the stop the officer stated i was doing 54 in a 40, the conversation was short, but he said i would unlikely get a awareness course and it was most likely 3 points and a fine.  Mrs thought it was a good idea to have dairy when she is lactose intolerant on date night, we just got on our way.  At the time, i didnt admit to the offence, but did say i didnt realise and had slowed down in any case. The officers chest camera was recording and on. At the stop, he asked where to send the fine to, as i knew i would be travelling to visit family up north, i provided my temporary details at that location in Yorkshire. It is now 05/05 and i haven't received anything at either my home address in Stevenage or the temporary address. 1. Is there a time limit in which paperwork needs to be sent to me. 2. Should i query the ticket as i don't want to miss any deadlines (if so who do i check with?) OR should i keep quiet. 3. Given nothing has arrived in 20 days, is there a chance of appeal if and when it comes through? Many thanks CrazeUK
    • Hi All. A family friends car was having issues when she was on a trip visiting family up north at the begining of January.  She ended up leaving it at my friends garage in the same location, who parked it on his forecourt to investigate the issue, howver he said most likely it is beyond economical repair as its a serious gearbox fault. In the meantime i replaced her car with one of my spare cars. The insurance on the car then expired in at the end of January.  When the insurance expired, I sent a paper V890 paper as i didnt have her V5 Reference number in hand to do it online (i have a copy of this).  She didnt mention she hadnt recieved any confirmation as she didnt know if she would get one.  She then cancelled her road tax at the end of March (i think) as she was paying by DD. She then was travelling up north so didnt get her ,ail until last week. She recievd a letter dated 09/04/2024 stating she had failed to insure the vehcile and there was a £100 fine which could be reduced to £50 if she respons by 11/05/2024.  As soon as we noticed, i got her to dig  out the V5 and SORN'd the vehicle.   My friend has been a bit slow in checking the fault, however i suspect it will still be scrapped and is still on his forecourt. Is this possible to appeal?
    • worthy to not forget Just to let you know this bunch Kensington have been fined £1.225m by the financial regulator for treating borrowers who were in arrears unfairly. Claim those charges back plus the interest and tell them not to add any more to the account. There are a few news stories here you can get the info for a letter to send to them. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8615870.stm  
    • Hi All. I went to visit a family friend in Rochdale on a new housing estate opposite a old row of houses. The location is Royle Road, Postcode OL11 3PE. I was originally parked in parking bays outside the old houses, then moved the car, when I noticed my tyre was flat, so parked on what looked like double yellows to use his air pump to check and inflate the tyres before we left the house.   In the time i went inside to sort the pump and power supply i got a PCN.  The tyre then got changed (has a puncture) and we left. PCN Number:         RE######## Date:             04/05/2024 Time:             20:36 Observation:         20:34 to 20:36 Reported location:     Royle Park Road Reason:        Parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours (Code: 01) I believe this PCN is not correct and has grounds to appeal: 1. My friend who moved into the property around 6 months ago, swears that even though it has old double yellows marked, they are not current or council marked.   He said the property development company had said they had marked them for ease of access during development. 2. The road i was parked on was Royle Road.  The PCN was issued for Royle Park Road, which is about 400 yards up the road. 3. There are no sign posts or marking showing parking  restriction hours in the entire area (there maybe on Royle park Road). I have attached a map of the Location where i parked as a red dot. I have 2 questions: a.  Is there a way to check where double yellow lines are marked on some register to check if they are current? b. Can my grounds of appeal simply be, wrong location, wrong offence? Thanks in advance. Map_20240505.pdf

    • 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.

Letters usually gather dust at the bottom of the DJ,s in tray its normally N244,s that are dealt with briskly maybe due to the fee?

By all means try a letter but considering you are requesting judgment in your favour and your PT 20 claim and costs maybe £40 would be worthwhile.

One more q.

 

Should the other side have responded to the cc? I.e defending it?

 

I never got a aq for the cc.

Yes they have 14 days to respond to your claim,I think it may be appropriate MR H to find out what exactly is the status of you PT 20 claim, why no AQ?

If its been lost in the system perhaps request a refund and go with plan B as discussed above.

Hi ANdy. I want to fire this off and see if it works. Is it ok as is? I haven't put together a schedule of costs yet and was hoping to do that once (and if) the judge goes ahead and strikes out. Or do I need to do it all in one go? Thoughts?

 

 

It is noted that the Claimant has now failed to file in court their Allocation Questionnaire despite being ordered to do so by 20th February 2012

 

The Claimant has had every opportunity to file an Allocation Questionnaire and considering the size of the organisation, it is not unreasonable for them to have filed such documentation on time at the first opportunity. They have since been given a final chance to file the document (by 19th April 2012) and they appear to have ignored the Honourable Judge’s orders and have failed to comply as directed.

I would therefore request that pursuant to the directions given given by the Honourable Judge, that the claim is struck out and judgement awarded to the Defendant and that the Claimant be ordered to pay the Defendant’s costs to be assessed on the standard basis and pursuant to the provisions of The Litigants in Person (Costs and Expenses) Act 1975.

Yes I cant see anything wrong with your proposal, don't worry about your schedule of costs for now as you have it covered within your request.Is this going in a letter or an application?

well the Court keep telling me that it does not need an application or a fee. I can see their point as you'd think it is covered by my recent N244 application for a strike out which triggered the judge to write to the Claaimant to give them another chance. But then again, they could be wrong!!!

 

My thought is to try this and if it doesn't work, I will follow up with yet another application.

My letter is with the judge apparently. It may take up to 10 days to hear back. All fingers and toes crossed here....

Hmmm....just rang the court for an update -and apparently there was an unless order issued on the 11th may saying that unless they file their AQ by 23rd May, the case will be struck out...so this means that they have been given yet another chance!!!!! and I didn't receive a copy of this.

 

If this had been the other way round, I am convinced that i would have a CCJ by now. It seems the court system is loathed to find in favour of the defendant when a creditor has started legal proceedings.

 

How can it be that a judge can write to the claimant and say that they need to file AQ by 19th April or the case will be struck out, and then when they fail to do so, all that happens is another extension???

 

FUMING!

Over a month late and still leniency unbelievable.4.00pm tomorrow Mr on the phone and demand it be struck out.In all honesty I'm sure that's what the Claimants wants then they don't have to discontinue.

How can you be 2month and 3 days late and the Court still issues "unless Orders"?

UPDATE: Decided to give the court a call as the deadline was 4pm on the 23rd. They have NOT received AQ (but if it was sent in just before the deadline, it may take a few days to show up on the system so not counting my chickens yet).

 

I never received a copy of the unless order which was issued on 11th May. The cpurt lady is popping one in the post to me. I got her to read it to me and it said the following (roughly):

 

Unless the claimant completes and files an AQ by 4pm on the 23rd May, the case will be automatically struck out without further order of the court and the claimant shall pay the defendant's costs in line with LIP rules blah blah etc.

 

Off on a business trip early next week so will ring and check if they did file in time next Thurs. Tick tock........

UPDATE - Called the court and the order has not been complied with. This will apparently trigger the civil team to confirm that the claim is struck out and and confirmation will be sent to both claimant and me soon. (One thing he did say is that, as with all orders, they can appeal but would have to provide a good reason as to why they haven't complied)Sounds pretty positive to me.Will wait for the order before trying for costs.

Excellent Mr Hat

 

Not before time, let me know once you have received the order and I will amend your thread title to reflect the result.

Keep that Chablis on ice for now though.:wink:

 

Well done and kind regards

Hi Mr Hat

 

Well done for standing up to these people. I have received a supposed N of A from them saying they had been assigned HSBC debt from Phoenix Recoveries and to send payment to Largo - who I had been paying from 2007 and had settled a F and F in 2010 on an unenforceable debt. Have sent CCA's again to both Arrow and Largo and repeated above. Anyway again, well done for fighting your corner and good luck with the future.

Many thanks Andy and Pixie. As Andy says, Le Chablis is on ice for now, will wait for confirmations to arrive and appeal time to expire. Happy that we have got this far :-)

Hmmmm, spoke to the court to chase things up and spoke to a more clued up sounding member of staff. The follwoing seems apparent1. The Claimant's slaim has been struck out. The order was an 'unless order' and said that the case would be struck out without further direction. The AQ has not been filed and it would have shown on the system by now if they had submitted on thime. I never received the unless order so have asked for a copy for my files.2. I can now write to the judge to claim costs as per the order - *****question for you guys - does this need to be via an application?***** 3. My counterclaim is still live and the reason I didn't get a seperate AQ for this is because they have not submitted a defence. I asked if I could then request judgement in my favour for this and she said that I should write to the judge. - *****again, would this be another application, so two seperate applications?*****So....what do you think? The lady said it was very strange as they had solicitors acting for them and they should have filed their AQ. I think the Sols passed the file back to Arrow but never notified me or the court and that this is a key reason for the radio silence.How would you play this and in what order?

One application is the way to go, not that I think you should have to, considering the Claimants behaviour in this claim with further expense to yourself.On receipt of the Unless order make application for Judgment and Costs.

 

" The order was an 'unless order' and said that the case would be struck out without further direction. "

You can only request judgment for your CC as they have not responded with any defence.

Sorry if I'm being a little thick Andy - but is that a 'yes' i should ask for judgment for my CC? Or would that complicate things? I've been at work all day and brain is a little frazzled so will give it some thought and come back later with a clear mind! :-)
