    • Commentary June 2024 WWW.ELECTORALCALCULUS.CO.UK Interesting article about just how bad it could be for the Tories.  Also Tories could be hoping on Reform not having candidates in many seats, as they were not ready.  
    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?

    • 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 Stonelaughter,

That is a damn good idea,to let them battle it out between themselves.

 

Now I know I am on the road to recovery,my perspective on life has changed for the better,I feel like a different person.I am preparing myself now,for the obvious situation

I am feeling stronger each day ,and I am soooooooooo determined to see this through.They have made my life an absolute hell on earth this last year,well now it,s payback time.

 

Maybe you can see from my reply ,that I am (sounding better)Ha!Ha!

Well blow me over.

I received a letter from the Head of Trading Standards in Hull this morning,from the e-mail I sent them in January this year.

 

The Head of Trading Standards in Hull,whose name I shall not divulge,aplogised for the delay in replying to my complaint of Wescot ,and states that he assures me my complaint was dealt with promptly with Wescot,and that Wescot have closed this account on their system and I should receive no further correspondence from them ,on this matter.

I hope other people WILL complain to Trading Standards of Wescot,s behaviour,as then,with a bit of luck,they will have their licence removed.Their tactics are a disgrace.!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I am so glad that you are still keeping an eye on my thread.

12th October 2006 :eek: and Tide and Tom had already been behind you a couple of months - It's been a long haul, but the Synergy wins in the end. Takes courage and you have shown that and are a wonderful example to others following you. Wouldn't it be poetic justice if Trading Standards actually insisted on receiving a copy of ALL complaints made to wescot rather than waiting for frustrated consumers to complain to them? They could monitor a 3 month period and make judgments on whether they are fit to hold a license after that - maybe put one of their own in their offices for a period - now THAT would put the wetness in their nickers!! If only ! ;)

 

Happy to see you happy again

That is a great idea Andrew1 but obviously they would have to be undercover as if not they would do things by the book. I can also see the sales of incontinence pads trebling. :D :D :D

Hi Maggie,

 

Can we get a collation of the main points eg. date account was opened, original balance, closing balance (with studio when passed over to DCA) and the balance claimed now - I've got the one with interest calculated.

 

The TS will need to be informed that no CCA has been forthcoming despite requests.

 

As stated, Studio are now trading as Studio24, so they will also need to know about potential problems (if they don't already, and Studio haven't smartened up their act).

 

Glad I'm not a turkey.

Of course not! I still always keep an eye on your thread, and I keep meaning to email you but "things" have got in the way and I never got around to it...

 

I hope you're having a happy start to your 2008 and that things are increasingly positive from here on in... :D
