    • I have just read the smaller print on their signs. It says that you can pay at the end of your parking session. given that you have ten minutes grace period the 35 seconds could easily have been taken up with walking back to your car, switching on the engine and then driving out. Even in my younger days when I used to regularly exceed speed limits, I doubt I could have done that in 35 seconds even when I  had a TR5.

    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

    • 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 Morning all

 

I stupidly bought a car from yes car credit back in 2001

To cut a long story short I have had no contact with any body regarding this debt

 

I recently received a letter from Aktiv Kaptial and decidng to tryning to sort this out

I sent the prove it letter by email to them

This morning i find a reply with an attachement

The attachment shows car reg and contact names and addresses and bank account details

but no dates or signatures or financial details

 

The email from them says that this is proof and that they want propsals for payment in the next 14 days

 

I have replied asking how they consider this proof and asking for a staement of account as I believe it could statue barred.

Is this right thing to do or are their other letters i should send

 

Thanks

Morning

 

When was the last time you made a payment or acknowledged this debt?

 

If there is a clear period of 6 years without either of these events happening then it is stat barred.

 

Care to give a bit of detail as to how the debt arose please?

 

thanks

Hi

 

I am 95% sure that it is statue barred.

The debt came about when I bought the car with my ex partner in either 2000 or 2001, relationship went wrong and I could not afford the repayments.

I did the usual hand in sand thing back then but have decided to sort all the old problems out as the letters are beginning to depress me.

 

To my knowledge no contact has been made but not totally sure

 

Thanks

Hi saffy

 

Have you checked your Credit Reference Agency file to see if it is still on there? If not you can do this online for free but make sure you cancel your sign-up within a month.

 

If it doesn't feature it is probably SB.

 

Another way to be absolutely sure is to send a Subject Access Request (SAR) to Yes. This will cost £10 statutory fee but will yield a full transaction history (and a lot of other stuff). There is a template letter for a SAR in the CAG library, the link to which appears at the top of every CAG page. If you send a SAR, make sure you put as the first paragraph tha you do not acknowledge any debt to Yes. They will have 40 days to comply.

 

A SAR request doesn't re-set the stat barred clock...it is purely a request for information.

 

From the information that comes back you will be able to establish the exact position.

Hi

 

I have checked Credit report and it does not appear.

 

Maybe I should just go the 'Statue Barred template'

 

Thanks for your help

 

Saffy

 

Ok

 

send the SB letter and see what comes back......

 

We can take it from there

 

Regards

After sending statue barred letter, i have received an answer to the effect that they agree and will no longer be pursing this matter

Thanks for the help

Hi ims21,

Im currently running another thread but got linked to this one, Is it more than likely that if my debt is not showing on my credit report it will be SB as im not sure when last payment on mine was made. Cabot told me it was 2006 so still another year to go!

Also shall i send a SAR to make sure?

Kind regards

Yes m8 sure is!

 

Thought so!

 

A few shenanigens going on in that thread.

 

The fact that it doesn't feature on a cra file doesn't in itself mean its SB...in this thread it was just an added bit of ammo.

 

What I would do in your other thread is follow the advice of the experienced Caggers and site team (if you know what I mean).

 

dx might be right you know!
