    • no that is not a defence. because you don't have a photo
    • I purchased the vehicle using finance through motonovo under a HP 60 months agreement. I have now amended the document ensuring all is in black. Unfortunately, this email has now been sent. However, I have not sent a letter to big motoring world. Also, I have taken the section of the firealarm issue. I am struggling to convert to PDF. I am not tech savy at all. My mistake was that the the salesman was very fussy on a sale. We went down a quiet road for a little test drive and not for a lengthy road test. The water issue was not present at this moment of time. However, it only became prevalent after driving away, after all docs signed. I did stated to Audi I wanted a diagnostic report. However, they carried out an Audicam which is footage of the issue. Audi have diagnosed the issue as a common issue where coupes/cabriolets accumulate water in the seals. However, I did state beforehand for no issue to be rectified due to me wanting to reject the vehicle. I am awaiting a report from Audi through email from the branch manager in relation to the issue. The issue so far is the water still being present in the sills. Audi tried to fix the issue however the problem is still prevalent. Regards

    • Right,  so the court hasn't send out the Directions Questionnaires/N180s yet. PE's one is a false one, meant to intimidate you into thinking your defence was rubbish and they are confident with their claim. This is par for the course.  The PPCs do this regularly. However, PE have gone further and written that "a copy has also been filed with the court" which is a lie as the court haven't even sent out the papers yet. Keep a screenshot of MCOL, later on in your WS you can draw attention to their lying and abuse of court procedure. If you've got time on your hands, then complain to the BPA about one of their members lying.

    • 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 never understand why large retail parks have a time limit on people parking. It is highly likely that people are going to spend time shopping, going into restraunts, going bowling ect.

It is obviously the greed of the parking companies, they are onto a good moneyspinner here if the uneducated pay up!

If you have ever tried to call them to discuss the fine, you will notice that it is an automated service only and you can never get to speak to anyone. Here are their details to speak to a human.

 

Tel: 01772 450970

Fax: 01772 450979

1 It's not a fine!

 

2 I can't think of any reason why anyone should wish to call to discuss the unenforcable INVOICE

On the subject of retail car parks that have a 'free time and then we charge after that' policy, there is usually a reference in the Planning Regs, its usually worth a busybody type letter to the council making sure the plot developers/managing agents are actually complying, and not simply making up stuff in contravention of any planning regs.

Hi Crem,

 

I know these don't have to be paid. I posted the numbers as I got extremely frustrated that I could only pay and never speak to a human. I also hope that if enough people phone them and complain that they will get the message. As far as I'm concerned, what they are doing is immoral and they need to be given a hard time!

Hi

 

Great advice on this site and I know Im slightly worrying about nothing here but my car is a company car. Ive got a fine for going into a parking lot for 16 minutes without (allegedly) buying a ticket. My boss has this morning passed me the letter wanting me to pay fine.

 

Do I write to the company and say "please dont write to my boss write to me" or just explain to boss they may pester me for a while but its not enforceable and to pass all correspeondence to me?

 

Is there any point ringing up saying it wasnt me driving, dont know private details of the drive and say dont write again unless court summons cos your getting zilch £0! Will that stop the pestering!

 

Many thanks

It is preferable not to admit who was the Driver.

But to hopefully get them off the Employer's back, they can send a letter along the lines -

 

"We are the Registered Keeper of the vehicle and as such we are under no obligation to provide any details other than to the Police or Local Authorities.

 

However, as matter of Goodwill between our Companies, the vehicle was allocated to XXX of XXXX. We have no certain knowledge if he was the Driver at the precise time and date you mention, and we point out that others than just XXX are permitted to drive the car. So it may not be that he was driving it at that time.

 

We have provided you with more informaion than required by Law and we consider your enquiry closed. Any further contact to ourselves on the matter will be regarded as harrassment and we reserve the right to act accordingly.

 

Love and kisses

 

Boss"

 

Then you ignore them and their series of Threat-o-gramms, as you seem to understand is the right thing to do.

If this is from a Private firm, then you did NOT get a fine!

Having just received my ‘Parking Charge Notice’ from Parking Eye for spending 2 hours 11 minutes in a place calling itself Maybrook Retail Park, it took me a while to realise that this was the car park outside Marks & Spencers, Halfords, KFC etc on the Sturry Road in Canterbury.

Apparently you are only allowed 2 hours, which was not quite enough for lunch and shopping at Marks plus choosing a bike for my granddaughter at Halfords.

So I get a bill for £90, reduced to £60 for immediate payment, but rising to £120 if reminders have to be sent.

A quick phone call to the customer service department of one of these stores, to inform them that I intended to avoid their retail outlets henceforth, resulted in the charges being dropped within minutes.

It allways amazes me why a large retail park would allow just 2 hours parking for customers!

The businesses on the retail parks ought to get together and force the PPCs off. It must damage their buisness by turning paying customers away.
