    • A) Bollards, or B) county court action for trespass onto your private land, or C) retain one of the private parking firms, ensuring that they'll offer to take payment for the private parking space(s) on your land. (What you don't want is for them to put up signs saying "no parking" ... as then there can't be a contract to park to be broken .... read up on the parking threads to see what can be used to get out of such a private parking charge....) The PPC offers parking, with the proviso that a) they pay, and b) they provide contact numbers for the cars to be moved when needed. Make the payment required sufficient that it isn't attractive to them to chose to park there (& pay)....... Bollards may not be your preferred option, but it will likely be the simplest / quickest / most cost effective.
    • You need to choose between ET and small claims, you cannot do both. For straightforward wages I'd go small claims. Faster and less messing about. Advice here Employment claims in the civil courts - Working Families WORKINGFAMILIES.ORG.UK Some types of employment-related claims can be brought in the civil courts, rather than in an Employment Tribunal. This advice page offers a high level...  
    • The garages are used - just car currently being fixed.  I have no need of what they offer.  It is conscious trespass - and the law allows. Which is frustrating.  It's just v annoying that they do this. Isn't there a law that someone cannot prevent access to a public highway from private land?
    • The problem with sending it too early is that Jake might try to write something called a Supplemental Witness Statement to undermine yours.  It would be better to send yours right on the court's deadline. The problem is that we don't know when that is.  In 90% of cases it's 14 days before the court's deadline, so 21/06.  However, in the odd case the judge decides differently.  
    • Signs and notes on windscreens wouldn't deter me either. after all. it's private land and very little deterrent to stop drivers from abusing it. A physical barrier, IMHO is the only way you will stop them abusing it.....or, depending on what businesses they are, why not rent out your garage to them, ask them for a staff discount if you purchase anything from them? Whilst it is irksome, how much money have you got to throw at it, and is it really that important in your life? If you were using your garage, different story.

    • 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.

My partner has just had a claim with Natwest. He had to go as far as putting in small claim and after only 6 weeks he's had a letter offer frm Natwest. He is owed £3,900 ish and they're offering £550 less than that. Should be accept it or should he push for the remaining money?:confused:

Hi

 

Just thought i would post here as I have had numerous charges refunded by NW since my first claim against them last August, in fact I have had refunds on a weekly basis!!! Now I just send a letter saying...Please refund x amount...and they do! My last refund was yesterday for £114, I only sent my 4 worded letter on Tuesday!!!

 

So take heart all you NW people out there - maybe they are just sick of me and think its easier to pay up than argue anymore.....wish Barlcays would do the same!!!!!

Hi ive been offered all but £700 as FULL & FINAL settlement.I'm more than happy with the amount but i'm need clarification/reassurance of the ramifications bit of the full nad final bit, or as i have such a large claim would it be ok? Total claim £10.077 offered £9,293

Up to you Sherrattsvile.

Probably not the answer you wanted but that is the case!

'Full and final' means exactly what it says on the tin - you are agreeing not to continue with this claim in any way, shape or form. It is settled.

That doesn't mean you can't claim for anything not covered by this claim - any new or especially old charges, for instance - but it does mean that you can't go back at a later date, seeking to reclaim the £700 you have given up.

 

What does the offer represent, anyway? How was your claim made up?

And how far were you down the process?

Hi

 

if you are happy with that amount then you can accept it but if you hold out they WILL pay the whole amount but it will take longer.

 

I have had 3 claims so far, one pending but I settled on slightly less for 2 of them as i was fed up with all the waiting around.

 

The FULL AND FINAL settlement bit means if you accept what they offer you CANNOT ask for the outstanding amount of £700 - you agree to the offer they have given you.

"but if you hold out they WILL pay the whole amount but it will take longer."

 

I haven't taken a position on that because we don't know exactly what Sherratt's claimed.

 

See my sig!

Thanks westy

we were about to submit the N1 form. the £10,077 was charges only no interest ( that was approx £750, not finished working all that put yet)so we are aprox£1400 down. However as we hadn't submitted the N1 i feel this is quite a break through for natwest.I had some thought that a full & final offer meant that we couldnt pursue further claims as ive already notched up about £250 in charges since sept 2006.

youv'e made it all cristal clear thank you. I now know what i'm going to do

I never thought in a million years I'd be writing my first post saying that Natwest had just paid up - but today, unbelievably they have!!

 

I'd followed the advice on Martins site to the latter, used his templates, setup an alternative bank etc. I'd registered with MCOL and was all set to submit my claim on Monday.

 

They sent me a letter today, Saturday, saying they they will settle my claim in full - £2,198 in total.

 

I'd like to thank the contributors to this site and Martins site for their concise and thorough advice and would encourage anyone thinking of claiming to go for it - especially with a possible change looming in April.

 

Cheers.
