    • Thank you all for the responses, to answers a few questions  - she has had the car since Jan 23 on a 5 year term.  - She is unsure what the agreement is called, but at the end she has the option to make a payment to "buy" the car - she recieves benefits for her young children alongside the ssp (normally she would be on NLW for a 16 hr a week job)  - Yes she would like to keep the car  She has not responded to the last email from them asking her to call and it'll be followed up in an email. I told her to hold off until atleast Wednesday so I can read a few posts on here and get some more information.  I will ensure she follows up with a letter, that has not been signed but instead her name written.   Thank you  
    • Thanks @lookinforinfo I'll use that. @FTMDave Yep im going to do just that and calmly enjoy the process that follows.    Whats the deal with the quote thing? Is it causing an issue for the site or just an annoyance.
    • Hello, *posting on behalf of my friend, I'll provide as much info as possible*  During a pretty low point my friend moved into a social housing property, it was in a area with no family/friend connections so she started to look for a mutual exchange. She found one, signed the paper work and thought everything was okay.  She has now decided she does not want to go through with the mutual exchange. Is she legally allowed to pull out after signing the paperwork or does she have to commit to the move? Thank you,
    • Thats perfect as long as they go to my new address its all good. thanks again for the help
    • if the debts have not been sold on but only passed to the dca's to chase, then i doubt you'll ever get a letter of claim till it is sold on. OC's dont do court because of bad publicity .  if you've updated the address, then everything goes there from whomever. dx

    • 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 Everyone.

 

I am new here but am hoping you can offer me some advice.

 

I have a daughter who is now 16 years of age. She was born in England.

 

After separating with my wife at the time I continued to support my daughter directly, but then she (who was born in Australia) decided to return to Australia and take my daughter, and a daughter from a previous relationship who I also brought up, with her. As you can imagine I was not happy at the time. Her deciding to move to Australia made it extremely difficult for me to have regular hands-on and financial control/involvement with my daughter which she agreed but and chose to move to Australia anyway not caring about me or my involvement. I have maintained contact with my daughter throughout though.

 

In 2009 I moved to Canada to live with family and am now awaiting my approval for Permanent Residency. I have a signed letter from my daughter's mother dated in 2009 confirming that she has no outstanding issues with regard to Child Support for my daughter, as this was required for my application.

 

A few days ago, and totally out of the blue, I received CSA papers from the Australian CSA demanding over $13,000 (over $4,000 of which are penalties) in payments for my daughter?? The mother's financial situation and train of thought has obviously changed and she has decided to claim support dating back years!?

 

My questions, that hopefully you can help me with, are:

 

1. Can the Australian CSA legally chase me for payments when I have not lived or resided in that country. My daughter was born and predominantly raised in England? I am English.

 

2. How can I be charged penalties for monies/payments that I have never been aware of from a country that I have not resided in? The mother has always had my contact information as I have stayed connected. She obviously hasn't informed them of this as they are claiming that they have been trying to contact me for years???

 

3. I have a signed letter from the mother from 2009 (which she has obviously forgotten about) stating that there are no outstanding Child Support issues to date. This also proves that she was in contact with me at that point.

 

I have been sent residency forms and a breakdown of fees owed from the Australian CSA to my Canadian address but am hesitant to respond without finding out how I stand first.

 

If you can provide any advice and what I should do next, or how I should respond, that would be fantastic!

 

Best wishes,

 

Dunny :???:

Thanks. Nobody seems to want to talk to me yet though!! Lol!

 

Unfortunately when it comes to CSA there seems to be very few experts out there, I am aware that some CSA's have reciprocal arrangements with CSA's from other countries. This link will show you how the UK works with other countrie's CSA http://www.csa.gov.uk/en/case/enforcement-abroad.asp

 

sorry I cant be more help
