    • Have we seen your court bundle?   If we haven't then it's probably an idea to post it up here especially the index page and the witness statement so we can see if there is anything which might need adding or changing 
    • "Care to briefly tell someone who isn't tech savvy - i.e. me! - how you did this?" Its pretty simple although not obvious. You open the google maps app > click your profile picture > Click Timeline from the list > click today > choose the date you want to see the timeline from. Then you'll see your timeline for that day. Often, places you have visited will have a question mark beside them where google wants you confirm you have actually visited. You either click 'yes' if you have, or you click 'edit' to enter the actual place you visited. Sometimes, you'll see 'Missing visit' This probably happens if your internet connection has dropped out at that time. You simply click 'Add visit' and enter the place. The internet on my crappy phone often loses connection so I have to do that alot.   OK dx, understood mate. 
    • I have now been given a court date vs Evri, 4th Sept 2024. I have completed my court bundle, when am I expected to send copies to the court and Evri and should it be in hard copy or electronic? The Notice of Allocation states that no later than 7 days before the directions hearing both parties must send to the other party their final offers to settle. Does this mean I will have to tell Evri what I'm willing to settle? Rgds, J
    • Sorry  Noted x   Ok how about this to the CEO? I know it sounds super desperate but lets call a spade a spade here, I am super desperate: Dear Sir, On 29th November 2023 I took out a loan of £5000 with you. Unfortunately very early into 2024 I found myself in financial difficulty (unexpected bills and two episodes of sickness and the tax office getting my tax code wrong resulting in less pay for two months) and I contacted you (MCB) on 13th February 2024 asking if there was any way I could extend the length of my loan to 36 months. I fully explained why I was requesting this and asked for your help. I did not receive a reply to that email so I again contacted you on 7th March 2024 to advise you of a change in my circumstances which resulted in me having to take out a DMP and asking you to confirm that the direct debit had been cancelled. You would have also received confirmation of this DMP from StepChange but you did not acknowledge receipt of my email. I have only managed to make one payment from my loan but did try and contact MCB to discuss extending my loan, help etc.  I have now therefore fallen behind on several of my debts, yours included, and as a result you have lodged a Cifas marker against my name for "evasion of payment", which has resulted in me having to change banks, which has been an extremely difficult process because of the Cifas marker. I do not feel you have been fair or given me the opportunity to fully explain my situation to you before you lodged the marker against my name. I appreciate it is a business and you have acted accordingly, but I did try to make contact to arrange alternative arrangements and at no point, not even to this day, did I ever intend to not repay my loan. I cannot stress to you enough how much this has affected my mental health. I am having trouble sleeping and my existing health condition has been exacerbated by all of this. What I would like you to do is to please, please remove the Cifas marker and let me make arrangements to pay the loan back through a DMP.  Please sir, I am begging for your help here. I am not a dishonest person and I have never been in a situation like this before. I am desperately trying to make things right but this marker is killing me. Please can you help me? I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully,

    • 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 it's me again

 

Didn't have chance to send letter to dg. Received another one from them stating they have put the account on hold due to the bank's non compliance but informing me the bank has already sent me documents and that collection activity will continue after 4 weeks.

 

Still nothing from the bank and the only documents they have sent under the original sar is a couple of years statements, recent ones, a couple of recent letters and a boxful of computer printouts.

 

So dg have sent me a letter threatening legal action, then a letter offering a discount or send to debt collector, and now account on hold. I'm confused. Any help on how to proceed will be appreciated as always.

 

Thank you

if they are offering a discount then its a good sign they have not got the paperwork to go to court

or all most of the bal they are chasing is either all unlawful charges or mis-sold ppi - hence 'their' discount too you! - your money in other words! - and it is obv if they took you to court - you'ed put in a counter claim and they'ed lose the case.

hi

 

Received a letter from ICO acknowledging the safe receipt of my complaint and they will send me a reference number when it has been assigned to one of their advisors.

 

Still nothing from the bank regarding my non compliance letter.

 

Will let you know if I hear anything further.

 

Cheers

Hi everyone

 

An update

 

Still not heard from ICOwith reference number.

 

Received a letter from solicitors stating I was given a final response and their holding the account in abeyance for 7 days, what a joke, the letter is dated 14 days ago received today. Enclosed is a very personal questionnaire for me to fill in and send back with a proposal for payment. If I fail to respond it will result in court action. I can also phone them if I want to.

 

Should I get in touch with ICO and ask what to do with the letter. I have no intention of using the phone!

 

Will update again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

cheers

I have still not received a reference number from ico regarding this account. Have not received any documentation at all from hsbc. The last letter I received from them stated they were looking into things for me. Heard nothing from them.

 

All my letters of payment proposals were ignored and the account passed to metropolitan and then dg.

 

Any help would be appreciated with a letter to these people.

 

Thank you

I will ring ico and ask them what's happening about my complaint and tell them about dg's latest letter.

 

ICO are taking a long time to send a reference number.

 

Will let you know what they say and ask or further advise if I may.

 

Thanks again

Hello Daisy

 

Did you also have an HSBC Mastercard? if you did I have some very useful info that will almost certainly get you a refund of some of the interest! I am reading your thread with great interest, there is lots I want to say but now is not the right time for me to do that. If you abid your time tho you might just find things with HSBC become much easier to sort with them. Thats all I can say right now but stick in there with hope that one day your nightmare with HSBC will finally be over.

Hi everyone

 

A lot to update.

 

Rang ICO, no help because of the backlog, they will send reference number once it has been assigned.

 

Sent a letter to dg reminding them the account was in dispute, a complaint has been lodged with ico, that overdrafts are exempt from part v but are partially covered by a provision of a facility letter etc.

 

I asked again for the documents they will be relying on in court.

 

They have replied with the letter below.

DX is right Daisy , usual bully-boy tactics .... if you want to be seen to have replied (which might look better if it came to court , although that's highly unlikely:roll:) ask them (by recorded delivery letter) to send you a copy of the authority they have to collect this alleged debt i.e. a copy of the agreement .....

 

Then forget about them ... they're trying it on ! :)

 

Oh , and whatever you do ... don't phone them ..... !

Hopefully hsbc will give up banking in the uk as the fsa tighten their grip with banking legislation. Self regulation has never worked and hsbc wont be pleased that they are losing their grip and control! LOL.

re the 'technicalities' re an o/d - they are required to have sent an o/d 'letter' soon after the o/d arrangement, and this shld contain the terms of the o/d. they are also required to send some 'notice' before calling in an o/d. also, if in 'breach' of the o/d agreement, then a compliant Default Notice is required before the cr can terminate etc if they are doing so on the basis of your 'breach'. the 'clause' saying that they can call in the full amount at anytime in such short notice may be regarded as 'unfair', and an 'unrealistic demand' for payment.
