      Caught fare evasion in tube station

      By Seven77 · Posted

      Thanks dx for your kind words. I plan to renew my season ticket and write a new begging letter as following, can I ask for any suggestion about it?   Dear Investigator/Prosecutor,   Thank you for your reply. I deeply regret my actions and the inconvenience they have caused.   I’m extremely remorseful for my crime. and regret it everyday. I often ask myself ‘’how can I do that thing just because I felt it is interesting. There are a lot of crimes in the world, but feeling it’s interesting is certainly not a reason to crime. I should not crime with any reason.’’ I think about these things every day, and I understand that I can’t blame anyone but myself.   I thanks to the staff who stopped me, as this is a valuable lesson in my life. I told myself that I should never ever repeat such a thing again, and never ever do anything which is possible to be in breach of any law. As a result, I carefully tap my oyster card every time before I enter the station now. I remind myself that I did a wrong thing before, and I should never let it happen again.   Although my monthly travel expenses do not warrant a season ticket, but I just renew my season ticket (please see the attachment). I understand that a crime cannot be truly compensated for, but purchasing a season ticket offers me a small measure of comfort, knowing that my actions caused a loss to the public interest.   I received an email which ask me to negotiate being class teacher in this summer (please see the attachment). I hope that I could teach the lovely students again, which may not be allowed with a criminal record. I would please ask that you would please provide me a single opportunity to settle all outstanding sums owed outside of court without the need for legal proceedings which would have a determinantal impact on my teaching career.   I sincerely apologise again for my crime. If you need anything further from me to help you please let me know.    Yours sincerely,

      You did what??? You asked them to send you the documents that without them you had  a 100% ironclad win in Court. Why on earth would you do that? As it happens in this case, there is still enough mistakes in their PCNs and the NTH to have your case cancelled. Amd it may be that not sending those documents in the first place along with the ICO complaint and the letters from Alliance themselves which would confirm by the dates on the letters may be enough to cancel it anyway. I hope you have kept their letters as evidence? The chances are that Alliance will not actually take you to Court because of their errors but you never know.  You have made so much extra work for yourself in your WS if they decide to push their luck.though. Can you please post up their letter where they give the reason why I wasn't sent with the NTH.

      I'm not sure that I fully agree with my site team colleague above.  My understanding is that there is nothing to stop you recording but it is strictly for your own personal use.

      sent debt by bwlegal for over £3000

      By student145 · Posted

      I live in a student house, with 5 tenants, unihomes is our utilities provider, who we each have a direct debit set up with and have paid each bill every month. Two letters were sent in my name by BWLegal saying I had two outstanding payments due adding up to over £3500, I have tried to contact british gas (as that is apparently our houses provider) as well as Unihomes. Nothing has helped and BWlegal are pursuing legal action if these debts are not resolved by the 1st May. What do I do? I've called Bwlegal when i bring up that the debt isnt for me and for unihomes they hang up on me. so I am stressed and do not know what to do

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

So the plot thickens and I'm not done yet!!

 

Agency have not paid up. They have until Tuesday to pay. What's te score if they don't or are late?

 

I emailed the head honchos in Germany for the site I was placed in telling them everything that went on including being sexually harassed by a supervisor. The agency were aware of the sh , I have emails to back that up. Typically they did nothing. The site have been on the phone saying they are doing an internal investigation and want me to come in on Monday for a meeting about it. Personally I don't think there's any point the supervisor is related to management it'll get brushed under the carpet.

I would not refuse to participate until I had received the money. Tell them that you will consider that after what was promised is delivered as the money and investigation are now separate issues.

 

Have you withdrawn your ET claim and what do you have in writing to support the compromise agreement?

First paragraph makes no sense to me.

 

I have copies of agreements and emails etc

What I mean is do not refuse to participate outright - say that you will consider that after the agreed amount of money has been paid. Was there a signed agreement? Did you withdraw your ET claim without a signed agreement? There is still time for them to pay as Tuesday is the deadline.

Still no payment, I've emailed there solicitor. Ot3 has been signed by all ad claim withdrawn after receiving copies.

 

Recieved this today from the site. Not impresse with the attitude.

*

We have tried to contact you on the mobile number you provided but have not been successful. We will arrange for the investigation meeting to take place in x as so then you will not have to visit the site. X did ask if you felt OK with coming to the X site on Friday and confirmed he can conduct the investigation anywhere within reason. We need to conduct this investigation as a matter of urgency due to the seriousness of the matter. Could you confirm when you are next earliest availability to attend this meeting and what time is best for yourself?

 

I've told them I am not willing to go to the site of my previous employment. We're they want me to go is even more ou of the way and will take 3 hours to get to. Ivwould of thought it should be somewhere convenient for me not them. They have an office in town for example I'd be happy to go to.

 

Heyve also left me 3 rude voicemails.

Unbelievable

We refer to your email dated 7th June 2012 confirming to the Tribunal that your case has been settled and your ET claim "stopped".* Please note that under the terms of the COT3 you were required to "withdraw your claim in full".* Could we please ask that you email the Tribunal to confirm that that is your wish in accordance with the COT3 Agreement.*

*

Yours faithfully,

I get the impression that they are withholding the money because they did not like the wording of your communication to the Tribunal when withdrawing your claim. Let them know that you are willing to change that wording but ask for an assurance that the monies will be paid immediately after you have complied with their request.

 

As for the investigation, now that you no longer work there, it is really up to you, if you want to co-operate or not.

You can always offer to make a written submission and answer questions by e-mail. That way you have fulfilled the co-operation bit without putting yourself out too much. Good luck with ACAS.

There saying they can come out to my flat to discuss further not sure how I feel about that!!

 

Hello there.

 

You don't have to agree to that. If they're willing to come to where you live and you want to see them, you could suggest somewhere 'neutral' locally, where you could talk over a coffee. Hotels often have coffee lounges where it's fairly private to talk.

 

My best, HB

I would not consider meeting them or putting myself out to help "the client" in any way until they have paid up.

Sorry that was worded badly.

 

Acas said the agency's solicitor would be speaking with the client ie the agency that tey are happy with the new wording to the ET. Should be fine I've used there exact words.

 

The complaint I've lodged with the site I was on is separate to the agency. I've put a complaint in about the supervisor who was employed direct and not agency bullying a sexual harassment and I was stalked by someone else. I will have all the txts and towards he end I started writing everything down soni have a fair bit to use.

 

I've told the site no they cannot come out to my house. They then sent me a nice email back about not being co operative!! I said to her when you stopped paying my wages you no longer have any authority to tell me what to do!! So now they are renting out the function room in the grim pub opposite mine!!

Done!

 

The amount of bum kissing from them was sickening. He kept shaking his head when I was telling him stuff.

 

To be fair to them they seem to be actually dealing with it unlike the agency.

 

I will take a huge amount of pleasure putting that cheque in the bank today!

Had a letter from the agencys solicitor:

 

We enclose a copy of our application for formal dismissal of your claim.

 

You have the right to object to our application and any notice of objection should be sent to the tribunal within 7 days of the date of this letter with a copy to ourselves.

 

What does this mean?
