    • Thank goodness it's not your roof and you get to foot the bill! How big are these bits of mortar? How often are they falling into your garden? Hourly, daily? Just go ahead with your plans, of course, they're not going to be worried by your time pressures and the urgency of the situation, so simply carry on as you would have done and I'm sure everything will go fine. Unless there is a danger to life and serious structural issues which mean you cannot venture into your garden, then IMHO there is little more you can do less for what you have done so already and made them aware of the issue.
    • Hi all!   Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!!    I parked up (at 18:08) in a rush, entered my Reg and paid for an hour of parking. At 18:20 I got a ticket for not paying for parking.    I've just looked at my receipt and noticed why ... I put "22" instead of "21"  when i put in my Reg. yes... what a stupid mistake.    I seem to remember there being a court case or a rule change about entering the wrong reg but the company wasn't at a loss because i had paid for the parking just technically for the wrong car. Am i making that up?    Any advice would be gratefully received, even some key points i have to hit when doing the appeal      
    • You haven't returned to the thread to give us your views, but a couple of other things strike me which you should consider: 1. You say that at no time was your father's licence revoked by the DVLA. It didn't have to be revoked. It expired in September and his "entitlement to drive" (of which the licence provides proof) expired along with it. He could only continue driving whilst his application was being processed by virtue of s88, and it seems clear to me (based on what you have said) that he was not able to take advantage of the benefits provided by that section. 2. The letter he received threatening to revoke his licence was probably a template letter sent when any medical issues are brought to the attention of the DVLA. But it is clear that beyond September until it was eventually renewed, your father had no valid licence to be revoked. I believe a "not guilty" plea in court will fail. The basic facts are that your father's licence expired in September, it was not renewed until February because the DVLA were looking into his medical declaration and he could not take advantage of s88. So in December he had no licence and no entitlement to drive under s88. The facts that he believed he was fit to drive and that his licence was eventually renewed may mitigate the offence but they do not provide a defence. I also asked whether he had received a summons (very unusual these days) or whether he had received a "Single Justice Procedure Notice". The way to proceed from here differs slightly depending on what he has received so if you let me know, I'll advise further.  
    • Well, what I've read from various sources suggest if a CCJ is 6 years old that if becomes pretty much ineffective for enforcement purposes in its original form.  And that if it's about to expire then the claimant needs to apply to the court to extend the original CCJ within the final year.  Even if they do apply for an extension within the 6 years they have to have a very strong argument for doing so such as the person being out of the country or could not be traced, basically show they were actively still perusing the debt I guess. Now if a claimant ever does apply within the 6 years to extend the CCJ, would the person named on if be notified by the court that such an application has been made?.  In my case I've heard nothing from the court so assume no such application has been made.  The original CCJ in my own case is now a year beyond the 6 years of issue so must now make things even less likely again. So whilst the CCJ exists that they have not enforced it in that time must surely make it unlikely they can now take it back to court because as said it would be very rare for a judge to agree to such action now. That said, I guess they now can't use the CCJ to continue with any action for an attachment order to our mortgage either?

    • 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 ValF.

 

Post number two, in the Newbie forum, and you already have a date for your court action.

 

I would suggest, as a matter of urgency, that you have a good read of the FAQs and the step-by-step guide in the library section.

 

Please start your own thread in the Barclays Bank forum.

I have a court date for 6th December and am feeling quite nervous about this.

I am not sure what to do next. The form I received today says 'Each party shall deliver to every other party and to the court office copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing' what do I send ? Please can anyone advise me. Trying to claim £1100 back from Barclays.

Hi Rooster UK

 

I have been using this site for quite some time now, but not being very good on the computer, I often get lost on the site and can not get the information I have seen before, I have only just figured out how to post a thread, its called being old so please be patient with me, I am trying my best! I found this site because I listen to LBC radio, and have now started this small claims thing for my daughters.

I followed your advise and posted a thread on the Barclay forum, or at lease I thought I had, but guess what I can not find it on there. I hope I,m better in court then on this thing.

Thanks for your help,

Regards ValF

Hi Rooster,

 

Thank you, you are a star. I have found all those things and will study them further tomorrow, too tired tonight. Old people have to go to bed early! Grandchildren none, first one due January 2007, loooking forward to this no end.

The mummy is the daughter with the court date.

 

Thanks again,

Val

Great stuff. You will have to keep us up to speed on everything, including the impending addition. Hope everything goes OK.

 

P.S. It really is true that grandchildren are better than your own children, because you can always send them back home when you've had enough.:D :D :D

Thank you Michael Browne and Lobster, you have made it all so easy for me to do. I very much appreciate your links, not being too bright at computers. It has taken me months to find out how to post a thread ! but have been using the site. I have two Small Claims Court going with Barclays Bank for one of my daughters and one with Lloyds posible two for my other daughter, plus starting one for my son-in law with Abbey who are proving to be difficult getting his statements from, now considering doing an undisclosed claim from them although they did refund £250 to him for just the first letter.

Good luck to you both with your own refunds.

Please could someone help me,

 

I have printed out Bookworm's Basic Court Bundle ( 3 times)

 

I have also printed Oft Summary = 3 pages (3 times )

 

Plus Early Day Motion from the House of Parliament =1 page ( 3 times)

 

Plus statements where charges appear ( 3 Times)

 

Attached a list to the front of the statements with date, type of charge plus amount then a total. ( I did not claim interest )

 

I will copy all correspondence to and from Barclays

 

Do I have to copy anything else?

 

This has taken me most of the day, court date is 6th December, I know I have to get this to the court 14 days before, but thought I would get on with it and get it in early. But I dont want to get it wrong at this stage.

 

many thanks

Hi Val.

 

Bookworm's court bundle is pretty comprehensive.

With the addition of your own letters etc it should serve you well.

 

Good Luck.

Thanks evryone,

 

I do wish they had made this offer two weeks ago, that would have saved me printing out the court bundle three times, the only consulation is I can recycle them to use against Lloyds in December and February.

 

It is a great feeling to know you took on the Bank and won.:p

 

See you all in the Lloyds section, Hi Ho Hi Ho its off to Lloyds we go.:wink:

Hi ,

could someone advise me on how to start a thread, im suing barclays for £2465. They have acknowledged my claim. My only concern is that i had phoned them after asking for my bank charges back, then they told me it was the above amount. I have not got any details or list of charges, only what they told me on the telephone, would this matter?

They have offered me £1000.

 

Thanks...OCNNLL
