    • I disagree with the charge and also the statements sent. Firstly I have not received any correspondence from DVLA especially a statutory notice dated 2/5/2024 or a notice 16/5/2024 voiding my licence if I had I would have responded within this timeframe. The only letter received was the single justice procedure notice dated the 29.5.2024 this was received on 4.6.2024. I also disagree with the statement that tax was dishonoured through invalid indemnity claim. I disagree that the licence be voided I purchased the vehicle in Jan 2024 from RDA car sales Pontefract with agreement to collect the car on the 28.1.2024. The garage taxed the vehicle on the 25.1.24 for eleven payments on direct debit  using my debit card on my behalf. £62.18 was the initial payment on 8.2.24  and £31 per month thereafter the second payment was 1.3.24.This would run from Jan 24 to Dec 24 and a total of £372.75, therefore the car was clearly taxed before  I took the car away After checking one of my vehicle apps  I could see the vehicle was showing as untaxed it later transpired that DVLA had cancelled my tax , without reason and I did not receive any correspondence from DVLA to state why it was cancelled or when. The original payment of £62.18 had gone through and verified by my bank Lloyds so this payment was not declined. I then set up the direct debit again straight away at my local post office branch on 15.2.2024 the first payment was £31 on 1.3.2024 and subsequent payments up to Feb 2025 with a total of £372.75 which was the same total as the original DD that was set up in Jan, Therefore I claimed the £62.18 back from my bank as an indemnity claim as this payment was from the original cancelled tax from DVLA and had been cancelled . I have checked my bank account at Lloyds and every payment since Jan 24  up to date has been taken with none rejected as follows: 8.2.24 - £62.15 1.3.24 - £31.09 2.4.24 - £31.06 1.5.24 - £31.06 3.6.23-£31.06 I have paper copies of the original DD set up conformation plus a breakdown of payments per month , and a paper copy of the second DD setup with breakdown of payments plus a receipt from the post office.I can also provide bank statements showing each payment to DVLA I also ask that my licence be reinstated due to the above  
    • You know hes had it when they call out those willing to say anything even claiming tories have reduced taxes on live tv AS Salmonella says: The Conservative Party must embrace Nigel Farage to “unite the right”, Suella Braverman has urged, following a disastrous few days for Rishi Sunak. The former home secretary told The Times there was “not much difference” between the new Reform UK leader’s policies and those of the Tories, as senior Conservatives start debating the future of the party. hers.   AND Goves replacement gets caught booking in an airbnb to claim he lives locally .. as of yesterday you can rent it yourself in late July - as he'll either be gone or claiming taxpayer funded expenses for a house Alongside pictures of himself entering a house, Mr McGuinness said Surrey Heath residents “rightly expect their MP to be a part of their community”. - So whens farage getting around to renting (and subletting) a clacton beach hut?   Gove’s replacement caught out on constituency house claim as home found on Airbnb WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK Social media users quickly pointed out house Ed McGuinness had posted photos in was available to rent     As Douglas Ross says he'll stand down in scotland - if he wins a Westminster seat - such devotion.
    • I've completed a draft copy to defend and will post up here for review.  Looking over the dates and payments this all stemmed from DVLA cancelling in Feb , whereby I set up a new DD in Feb hence the overlap, why they cancelled when I paid originally in Jan I have no idea. Anyway now stuck with pending court action and a suspended licence . I am also firing off a letter to DVLa recorded disputing the licence revoke
    • Thank you both for your expert knowledge and understanding. You're fighting the good fight by standing up for people like me and others with limited knowledge of this stuff. I thank you. I know all my DVLA details are good. I recently (last year) renewed my license, and my car's V5 is current with the correct details; the same is valid for my partner. I'll continue to ignore the love letters 😂 and won't let it bother either me or my partner.  I'll revisit this post if/when I get a letter of claim.  F**k ém.

    • 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.

I have been on long term sick due to an accident at work.

I want to leave due to health reasons.

I've checked my contract of employment and it does not mention anything about termination of employment.

 

I have worked for them since July2010.

Is 1 weeks notice sufficient?

Am I entitled to accrued holiday pay?

I am on ESA as I've been off work for more than 28 weeks.

 

Thanks in advance for any help

Yes 1 week is sufficient, and you are entitled to be paid for any untaken accrued holiday.

 

Thanks for the info mariefab.

 

Is it acceptable to send my resignation via email?

It should be acceptable ( but I'd send a recorded delivery letter too as confirmation).

 

In case you don't already know, you continued to accrue payable holiday entitlement for the whole of the period that you've been off sick and you are entitled to be paid your normally weekly wage for your 1 week notice.

Thanks mariefab.

do holidays accrue differently for different employers or is there a standard eg 1.5 days per month?

Am I entitled to the 1 weeks notice at normal pay even if I'm not receiving any payments from my employer due to being on Employment Support Allowance?

If your contract/statement of particulars/company handbook/or any other relevant document doesn't state your holiday entitlement; you are entitled to at least the statutory minimum.

This is 5.6 weeks per year including bank holidays.

 

Yes, you are entitled to be paid for 1 weeks notice. See s.87(2) and either s.88(1)(b) or s.89(3)(a) depending on whether, or not, you had 'normal working hours' below.

Accident at work????? Resigning voluntarily may not be the best option for you.

 

Can you explain what happened regarding the accident, what your long term problem is and whether you have a solicitor on to it.

 

There are other considerations regarding Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit and registering the injury as a work place accident.

 

More information please.

hi papasmurf,

 

I am leaving the uk in just over 1 week so think resigning probably is the best thing for me.

 

I was working in a customers house. I stepped over some lino offcuts left in a doorway. As i stepped over them (right foot 1st) I caught my right foot against a box. After stepping over the lino you needed to turn left to enter the kitchen. as i didnt know my right foot was against the box i turned my body whereby my right foot stayed where it was. The was a loud popping noise (like bubblewrap being screwed up). i fell to the floor n my right knee swelled up.

 

Turns out i damaged the cartilidge in my knee n had to have an op called a microfracture proceedure. Knee is very painful and I take co codamol everyday to help.

I have been getting some money through works accident insurance.

 

I do not have a claim against them and do not have a solicitor.

Would there be grounds for a claim seeing as they have been paying me insurance?

 

My accident happened in December 2010 and i'm still off sick

My opinions are my own and not those of anyone else :D

I would imagine it was the owners of the property who put both the lino and the box there.

 

No I have not been in touch with a solicitor. Do you think it's be a good idea?

would I be able to claim even though I'm leaving the uk?

It is difficult to get a full picture on a forum.

 

If it was the owner's box and lino, the chances are you have a claim against the owners insurance company.

 

Yes it is a good idea to speak to a solicitor specialising in Personal Injury claims.

 

Yes you can still claim if leaving the uk.

 

How long are you off for? The point being that every week's wages lost (insurance payments are NOT wages) can be reclaimed + interest. Future losses too are claimable.... so that its why I say resigning may not be the best option for you, it limits potential compensation.
