    • I have just read the smaller print on their signs. It says that you can pay at the end of your parking session. given that you have ten minutes grace period the 35 seconds could easily have been taken up with walking back to your car, switching on the engine and then driving out. Even in my younger days when I used to regularly exceed speed limits, I doubt I could have done that in 35 seconds even when I  had a TR5.

    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.

    • 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.

Interesting point: what does 'provision' mean in that context, that subsection. One for the legal bods? Interesting, and this is what we have to watch out for - interperatation of the law..

 

The word provision isn't defined by the Act, so the dictionary definition of the word would suffice;

 

"something provided"

 

It this context, it seems to mean terms of agreement, which I'm sure a Judge would go along with unless there was good reason to rebut that assumption. (I can't think of one?)

When you write to dispute a CCA, it is not advisable to give the reasons for the dispute in detail. That way, they cannot write back to you in the way that they done.

 

This is what I use. It is then up to them to second guess what is wrong.

 

Remember it is not up to you to prove the CCA is invalid, it is up to them to prove that it is:

 

Account In Dispute

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

Re: my request under s78 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

Thank you for your recent letter sent to me dated **DATE**, the contents of which are noted. However, the reply received by me does not fulfil your requirements under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

The Act demands that I be supplied with a true copy of any properly executed credit agreement that exists in relation to the above account. I may ask for this on demand providing that a fee of £1.00 is paid. This fee was sent with my original letter, dated **DATE**. Upon receipt of the original request the specified account legally entered into disputed status.

 

My request remains outstanding. The supplied documentation does not constitute a true copy of a credit agreement and that which you sent doesn't even contain all the prescribed terms and is not 'properly executed'. The statements sent do not correspond to the amount stated in your earliest correspondence and therefore they do not satisfy the requirement to supply me with a statement of account.

 

As you will know, under the Consumer Credit Act 1974, a judge is not permitted to make any enforcement order unless the creditor can provide a true signed copy of the original credit agreement. This means that unless you can produce such an agreement, this alleged debt is not enforceable in law.

 

You had until **12 days DATE** to provide me with the true copy I requested. After that date you entered into default of my request. Whilst the account is in dispute, you are not permitted to ask for any payment, nor am I obliged to offer any payment to you. Furthermore, whilst the dispute remains, you are not entitled to charge any interest on the account, nor make any further charges to the account. Additionally, you are not entitled to register any information on this account with any credit reference agencies (or any third party).

 

To register information with a credit reference agency, you must have written consent from the data subject to collate and share such information. This consent is given in the form of a signed credit agreement, so until you produce such an agreement, you may not do this.

 

The requirement for consent to share data is a clear requirement of the Data Protection Act 1998. Any such attempts to share my data without my consent will be met with a complaint to the Information Commissioners Office.

 

The time limits, which are laid down in the Consumer Credit (Prescribed Periods for Giving Information) Regulations 1983 are clear. You must supply an executed credit agreement within 12 working days of a proper CCA request. If you fail to comply with a legitimate request the account enters a default situation. . You entered into a default on **12 Days DATE**

 

Therefore you have 7 days from receiving this letter to contact me with your intentions to resolve this matter which is now a formal complaint, otherwise your conduct will be reported to the Office of Fair Trading, the Financial Ombudsman and Trading Standards. Any investigation undertaken by them may affect your ability to hold a consumer credit license in the future.

 

Take further note that continued telephone calls after the receipt of a request not to call may constitute a criminal offence under Section 127 of the Communications Act 2003.

 

Communicate in writing and ONLY in writing, your telephone calls will NOT be answered.

 

To sum up, I will not be making any further payments to you until you provide me with the document I have requested. Should you not have any signed credit agreement in relation to this alleged debt, please confirm this in writing to me.

 

 

I would appreciate your due diligence in this matter.

 

I look forward to your reply.

 

Yours faithfully

 

Thanks, I see your point, although with Cabot I think they seem to just send this letter out regardless. They have been nice and quiet for around a year now, so I guess they thought it was time to get back in touch again, although I'd much rather they didn't bother:)

 

It's all here, you just need to know where to look ;)

 

 

Thanks Peter!

 

I know, just haven't got time at the moment to plough through such a huge thread - so thanks for providing the info from Peter - just what I needed. many thanks car, Magda

When you say "terms" I take it you mean general terms and not the prescribed terms though?

Yup

 

provision - it's not explicit enough.

 

There are many rules of Statutory Interpretation - too many to list and go in to here - but there are plenty of cases that have been decided to date which describe what is required by these sections. Reading them outside of that context will be confusing. ;)

A further point with all this, I forgot to mention earlier. When i received my "CCAs", in all cases there were faults that according to my solicitor made them unenforecbale. Yes, I realise that in theory, only a court can decide that but as stated above in the thread, it's a question of who is bothering to go to court anyway. I sent the template letter about having an unenforecbale CCA (I posted it on the forums for all to see). However, I forgot to mention that I added a little paragraph like this:

 

To sum up, I will not be making any further payments to you until you provide me with the document I have requested. Should you not have any signed credit agreement in relation to this alleged debt, please confirm this in writing to me.

 

However, as a matter of goodwill, I am prepared to offer a full and final settlement of 500 pounds-20% of the original amount outstanding to Egg, which was 2500 pounds. You have 7 days from the date of this letter to accept my settlement offer, after which it will be withdrawn.

 

 

I would appreciate your due diligence in this matter.

 

Did you get any response from Egg on this alisindebt?

Calm down, we old timers read these all the time! :D

 

Question and thought for the day:

 

Mortgage taken out for new house in November 1989 for £180k

 

Same day, same lender, further advance for home improvements documented separately as a Further Advance from the mtg, but included IN the mortgage package.

 

Question 1) Should the £10k be a Regulated Consumer Credit Agreement

(Personally, I think it should)

 

Question 2) What remedies can there be and what should I do about it?

 

 

ps..whilst this is a personal question worthy of its own thread, this has wider implications for people who have further advances on their mortgages which our Mr Bennion refers to as 'top-up' loans which should be regulated, so I'll leave the answers on here..for now at least.

S18 of the CCA is an anti avoidance measure. It provides fir apportioning agreements for the purposes of deciding whether they are regulated or not. However my view is that the killer section is section 11.

S18 of the CCA is an anti avoidance measure. It provides fir apportioning agreements for the purposes of deciding whether they are regulated or not. However my view is that the killer section is section 11.

 

In this case s.8 and s.9.(1) defines what a credit agreement is.

 

8.--(1) A personal credit agreement is an agreement between an individual (“the debtor”) and any other person (“the creditor”) by which the creditor provides the debtor with credit of any amount.

 

(2) A consumer credit agreement is a personal credit agreement by which the creditor provides the debtor with credit not exceeding , 5,000 , 25,000.

 

(3) A consumer credit agreement is a regulated agreement within the meaning of this Act if it is not an agreement (an “exempt agreement”) specified in or under section 16.

 

9.--(1) In this Act “credit” includes a cash loan, and any other form of financial accommodation.

 

s.11,12 & 13 denotes what type of credit agreement it should be

 

and s.18 sorts out whether the different categories of credit mixed together are done so with the intentions of making the agreement a multiple agreement as defined by the above sections.

 

Question is, like I mentioned before, what does one do when a mortgage is provided and a further advance given which should have been a Regulated Consumer Credit Agreement and it is merged into the mortgage, as tens of thousands will have been and never have been noticed?

 

If one is facing a repossession for example and it is noticed that a part of the mtg should have been regulated then does that give an opportunity to question the repossession? - It did for me and the Judge allowed this to be looked into.

 

My questions are raised to make people aware that not all lending is straight forward and those with further advances should be looking at them as individual loans and Regulated as with any other personal loan.

 

 

..and the answers, if one is not facing repossession are?....

Certainly in my case the judge also agreed that the whole claim was imprperly stated. The judge felt that the most appropriate thing to do was transfer this to the high court. This is a real can of worms they've opened for themselves. Any subsequent 2nd loan and it's securityare probably unenforceable especially if it is provided in such a way as to leave you free to decide how to use it irrespective of any stipulations on use. I'm pretty strongly convinced that this is right and the judge seemed to agree.

I don't think individual circumstances affect the lawful status of the loan(s). Rather it is the other way around.

EIE...thanks, but I'm trying to elicit from wise old members here on how one approaches a bank when one finds out there is this anomilly in the loan set up..when in a position of repo it is easy to throw this in as a counterclaim - but when it is found out as I have posted above and needs to approach the bank then what exactly is one asking for them to do? I'm trying not to get guess work here....;)
