    • I drove a friends a car for a few days and I used cuvva car insurance to insure myself for the time period. Here's the problem: I made a mistake with the dates on the insurance, I ended up driving uninsured for one day and I got a speeding ticket. My friend named me as the driver on the Notice of Intended Prosecution as she should and I will take the blame of course. Will met police ask for proof that I was in fact driving? I mean, any more other than me replying to the NIP that I will soon receive from them? Cause I assume that my insurance for the day will be the proof that they need... Secondly,  if caught driving uninsured, what will happen please? I read it's £300 and 6 points. Is that all or is it worse? I'm only asking for information from knowledgable people. If you intent to just mock, you're certainly not helping. Thanks
    • Hi, Please find letter sent to BMW with all evidence off issues which is a link from Audi. Unable to share the footage on this forum as I am not the best with tech BMW FAULTY CAR LETTER.docx
    • This is the first item that I've ever claimed for - I don't really send too many parcels, probably 5 in the last 5 years, and only two with P2G / EVRi. I've attached two emails from P2G regarding their requiring the documents. They don't specify in the emails what documents I should be sending, although when opening the claim they were requesting that I needed photographic proof of sending - picture of the parcel with their label attached, in the EVRi ParcelShop. The second email is their closing the enquiry due to my failure to produce said document(s). I haven't yet drafted my claim letter, I wanted to be sure of this document situation first before I began action. But therein lies another problem. Not having a P2G account, I cannot be sure of the item value that I declared. The retail value at the time was £600, which is less than the £650 I paid several months earlier, so I would likely have used that, but cannot be sure. And without having an account I can't check either. But, I know that I did properly declare the item and a value that reflected its then retail price - I was concerned this declaration may have been used to single the item for theft. But now that the retail price has reduced substantially, even though the nature of compensation is to return the claimant back to their original position, without my purchase receipt, I was concerned that I may have to claim for less. And yes, I've been through your huge document store of information, in addition to MoneySavingExpert, Which, Citizens Advice, Gov.uk "make a court claim", my own law books (annoyingly I specialised in consumer law when I studied for my law degree, but I graduated 17 years ago), and so now feel that its time to either act, or drop 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.

Yes it can be done!!! Just wanted to post this to give hope to all those awaiting appeal dates.

 

In my sons case we have been left in limbo for 14 months since his original atos medical.

 

It took abouth 45 mins for the panel to hear my son and overturn the decission 0 points to 15 points.

 

If I can offer just one piece of help, it would be to be prepared. We spent a long time on the sumission letter it was very long and comprehensive, but ultimately my son dried up a little being questioned due to his anxiety (the whole point of his claim) and everything had been explained in advance in the letter. Thanx Leemack for the template we used.

 

2 weeks on and we have just received the letter from ESA stating that the claim had been sucessful and that backpay for the full 14 months was to be paid, over 2 grand.

 

From my sons point of view, this was never about the money but about being believed!!!

 

Anyway a heartfelt thanx to all here that helped an dhopefully our story and summision letter will help others in the future.

 

Karen

I think that's brilliant

My wife was screwed by ATOS and just didn't have the will power to go further; winning an Employment Tribunal took everything out of her. I'm pleased you've shared the results with us.

Hello Sue, welcome to CAG.

 

I'm sure other people will be along with advice for you, but please have a read of leemack's sticky on ESA 'medicals'. She's been through this too, as have I.

 

To find the stickies, come out of your thread using the back arrow and you'll be on the forum titles page for Benefits. The stickies are in the yellow section. Hopefully, leemack's thoughts will help you.

 

My best, HB

Hello again. If you come out of this thread [yours], then you should be in the 'titles' page for the forum. If you scroll up the page, you should see a block of titles in yellow and these are the 'stickies'. I can't remember the title of leemack's offhand, but it has ESA and medical, or Atos in the title.

 

My best, HB

Hi Sue,

 

These guys on here are incredably helpful and I couldn't have put together such a comphensive agument for tribunal without them.

You dont have much time left before yours so I would suggest you get as much medical proof as you can to take with you. Hospital/doctors letters scan/test result , anything you can get your hands on. It may also be helpful to take some general info about you condition with you. As your condition is rare the doctor may not have a working knowledge of it and I'm sure the judge wont.

 

Good luck and keep us posted

Hi , Well my appeal was today and won without having had to attend. I got a call at 10 o clock saying the judge supported my appeal from my paperwork alone.

Miracles do happen.

Thanks to everyone one for their advice and support

sue

 

Brilliant, I'm pleased you didn't have to go through it.
