    • So not entirely down to the ticket office, then. In fact you have been quite fortunate. The "Section 172" response provides the evidence the police need to prove that you were driving if they wish to prosecute you in court. In England and Wales there is a legal precedent which has determined that an unsigned s172 response does not meet the requirements of that part of the RTA. In effect, an unsigned response is equivalent to no response at all. (This precedent is not recognised in Scotland and there is a strategy to "go unsigned" to avoid conviction). When they receive an unsigned response the police are perfectly entitled to prosecute you for "Failing to provide drivers details" and they more often than not do. This offence carries six points, a hefty fine and insurance grief for up to five years. So you got lucky. The situation now is that the deadline for accepting a course is passed. Four months is the absolute maximum, with some forces cutting it back to as little as three months from the date of the offence. The police will not extend this because if you fail to complete the course before six months has elapsed, they can no longer prosecute you. They can only begin proceedings up to the corresponding date in June (i.e. if the offence was December 10th, they have until June 10th the begin proceedings). You will gain nothing by taking this to court. On the contrary you have a lot to lose. Courses are offered entirely at the discretion of the police, you have no right to one and the court has no powers to order one. Presumably you have been offered a fixed penalty of £100 and 3 points. If you are sentenced in court it will cost you at least three times that, possibly more (depending on your speed and your income). My advice: accept the fixed penalty and do it soon as there is a deadline for that as well and if you allow it to pass your matter will be taken to court anyway.

    • Hi all, I have an update: I have received the documents from the SAR, including photos. It appears that I was parked in a bay with a sign that requires a permit, however the pole that it is on does appear to be behind the barrier - see photo. Also, they documented that they DID NOT apply the PCN to my car because of safety concerns and I DID NOT receive the initial £60 PCN by post- see attached.CamScanner 05-10-2024 15.06.pdf appreciate nay feedback/ advice, current PCN fee stands at £100.

    • 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've done it, after months of reading posts on MoneySavingExpert, I've come here to find out all I need to know about claiming my charges back.

 

I've read the FAQ many times but still haven't got much of a clue, so please offer any advice as to what I should be doing.

 

I've taken the S.A.R. letter from the templates library and have filled in my details and printed it. I'll be sending it to Churchill Place as that seems appropriate.

 

I know several people have have done step by steps but it still baffles me:oops:

 

Am I right in thinking that I send out my S.A.R. with a cheque for £10 and then they have 40 days to furnish me with my requsted statements and all other hernia-inducing paperwork:confused:

Got the standard reply letter back yesterday.

 

I don't understand why they bother telling you they're not obliged to supply this info when in the very next sentence, they tell me they're sending me statements as a compliment:confused:

 

I don't want anything complimentary, I want my bloody money:mad:

 

Anyway, I'm off to read Druid's thread again just to make sure I know what I'm doing, that'll be a first:rolleyes:

I Whits

 

I was scared when I took this on but I got loads of confidence when I started the ball rolling and decided to go for it, when you get your money back just think of the holiday or whatever :D :D :D .

 

One word of advice keep a hard copy of ALL the letters that you write and send them all recorded delivery stapling the little orenge receipt to the appropiate letter, ( read through my Barclays thread "andy v Barclays as to why I say this ) and keep the letters in a seperate dedicated file. This means that if you need anything you know where it is.

 

Good Luck with your claim

Cheers Andy, I try to read as many threads as I can but you kow how it is, everyone on here hates Barclays:grin:

 

I've looked through my statements and despite being annoyed that I used to be so good with money, I'm quite pleased as it works out that they owe me £2360:eek:

Well, I gave them 14 days, and a couple extra, and no £2360 has appeared in my account.

 

So I've sent my LBA letter off today, looks like another few days of waiting for the inevitable "have a little bit of cash and leave us alone" letter, it's a bit boring isn't it?

As much as it pains me, I must give Barclays credit for responding so quickly, albeit unsatisfactorily:rolleyes:

 

I received the standard "here's less than half of what we owe you, now go away" letter this morning so I'm now off to the post office to tell them to shove it:grin:

I guess I am a bit, but it does annoy me that we all know Barclays will elect to defend and then pay out because they don't have a defense.

 

Wouldn't it be great if a judge would tell Barclays to stop wasting the courts time and just pay up :grin:

I received the standard "are you sure you don't want £1000?" letter trying to make me reconsider.

 

I wonder how many people have actually chickened out and accepted it because they're worried about going to court?

 

Talking of which, my OH's ex has just started the ball rolling on his claim but is using a solicitor to do it for him.

 

I get the feeling that we'll start seeing ads on TV from 'specialist' firms offering this service:mad:

Hmmm.... That gives me an idea!!!!

If i get my claim anyway!!

THE STORY SO FAR:

 

 

~Asked for my Statements: 2/10/06

~Got them within 14 days (fair play)

~Asked for the money back:18/10/06

~Computer said no!!!! (not all of it anyway)

~Rejected the (crap) offer (£570/£1300): 11/11/06

~Computer said Hell no!!!!

 

~Barclays said I can go to court if I want (like they've got the balls to go that far!)

 

~MCOL done 29/11/06

~Barclays acknowledged: 18/12/06

~AQ received, filled out and returned: 4/01/2007

~Court date set for 28/03/2007

 

Cant help thinking that soon, Barclays might have to have a go with a test case.... Hope they dont choose me!!!!

 

Small (SORRY) donation given, cos i reckon i might win in the end, and without you guys i would never have started this process!!: 16/11/06

Holy crap:eek:

 

Got a letter this morning from Northampton County Court about my claim against Barclays.

 

I know plenty of people have had this letter previously but I'm just finding it very surreal that I can take a massive organisation to court:eek:

 

I'm just annoyed with myself that I had no internet access for a month, I now have to give them until Jan 31st to acknowledge my claim.

Stone me, Barclays have acknowledged my claim and have decided to defend. I didn't see that coming :rolleyes:

 

I just want to clarify, it's now 28 days toatal, and not 28 working days for them to file their defence. Is that correct :confused:

I had a look on MCOL as today was the last day for Barclays to elect to defend my claim and they've bloody well done it :mad:

 

I am so angry, I know I'll get the standard letter from them and they know that they'll end up paying out so why don't they just do so now :confused:

 

 

 

 

OK, that's my rant over, I just wanted to see what the next bit is. I'm opff for a look through the FAQ :-x
