    • Thank you for that i thought id just ask as i was unsure.  Just hope its returned to me and doesnt spend the rest of its life going back and forth to Singapore  
    • Thanks @lolerz. I've attached it to the post. What do you think? What's the organ grinder? NTK.pdf
    • I'm afraid that if the value of the item was under declared then that is probably the best that you can hope for. Also, because the item was incorrectly addressed – even by a single letter, if that because the issue relating to the delivery then that has probably compounded the problem. There is probably very little that can be done. If you are lucky you will get the item back and then you can start again and declare it properly. Undervaluing parcels which are sent by any means is always going to cause a problem if the item is lost or damaged. It may mean that the cost of delivery is slightly less – but at the end of the day the risk becomes yours. When you enter into any kind of contract, effectively you declare it a level of risk to your contracting partner – and they decide to enter into the contract with you based on that level of risk. You have declared a level of risk and £50 – and that's the deal.   Additionally, undervaluing an item which is an internationally has the effect also of evading customs and any VAT system which is in force in that country – and that makes the whole thing a little bit more serious
    • Perfect. Nice and brief and to the point. You don't bother to start telling your life story. Just the way it should be. Send it off. You have probably done enough reading to understand that it won't make any difference don't start drafting your particulars of claim. Open an account with the MoneyClaim County Court system and start preparing. Post your particulars of claim here before you click it off. You may have noticed that at some point you will be asked if you want to go to mediation on this. We used to advise it but now we recommend that you decline mediation and go to trial. Your chances of success are much better than 95%. Going to trial will incur an additional hearing fee but of course you will get that back. However if you go to mediation, they will simply try to penny pinch and to get you to compromise and also they will sign you up to a confidentiality agreement and probably threaten you if you breach it. Not only that, if the mediation fails because you stand your ground, it will add additional delay while they then give you a date to go to trial. The best thing to do is to decline mediation – prepare for court hearing. Pay the extra fee. The chances are that rather than get a judgement against them they will then offer you a full settlement rather than go to court. If they do offer you full settlement then you will be obliged to accept it – but that's what you want. If they don't offer you full settlement then you will go to trial and there will be a judgement against them. Just so that you understand, our first interest is that you get your money back – but a close second is that it does go to trial and there is a judgement which we will then be able to use to help other people. Anyway as you should realise, we will help you all the way.
    • I sent a parcel to Singapore but i spelt the address incorrecltly by 1 letter so the parcel couldnt be delivered and was returned back to the Uk but checking the tracking today the parcel had returned to the UK but is somehow on its way back to Singapore as the tracking says "Item leaving the UK"    Ive spoken ( tweeted) Royal Mail help who confirm that the parcel seems to be going back to Singapore and that if its not " Delivered" by the 29th of April theyll deem it as lost and will accept a claim but i cant remeber when booking what the compensation amount was but i dont think it covers the amount of the item.  As it was my fault that it wasnt delivered in the first place can i trey and claim the full amount back ? i think if i remember correctly it was £50 compensation but the item was £170 So the timeline is thus ...   22nd Of March .    Booked via P2G & dropped off a Post Office.  25th March arrives in Singapore and goes through customs ect ect 26th   Incorrect address and item is flagged as "return to sender" 28th Item leaves Overseas intenational processing centre 15th of April , Item is leaving the Uk (Again)   ?

    • 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.

Lowell sent my wife a copy of the notice of assignment but its not a Photostat copy its a printed letter with the word copy printed going through it and its all in colour not black and white.

 

The telephone number that is always at the top left hand corner is missing and further down where it says to call them has these words >.

 

Where it says turn over to find details on how to pay its blank so is this an obvious made up notice of assignment to try and fool my wife.

 

The notice of assignment was sent three years ago according to Lowell's and this letter looks like it was only printed a few days ago.

 

They also said its not statue barred as my wife paid £100 but it will be statue barred on the 14th March 2012 and then my wife is going to tell them where to put this debt :)

 

 

What do you guys think of this notice of assignment?

My wife just received the cca from Lowell's and it has her signature but under the date it has her date of birth.

 

The agreement date has 21st Dec 2005 but the cca writing is really tiny and its not the same one they sent me this looks like an up to date one they sent the wife with her signature lifted and put onto a new cca.

 

So it looks like they are trying to con my wife

 

And last payment was made 14th of march 2006

May be worth doing an SAR and comparing the signature to a doc or letter that was sent at another time.

 

I done this to a credit broker and shown that two of my signatures had been lifted.

 

Are they claiming that this is an original copy? strange that anyone would put the date of the signature as their date of birth :lol: Not exactley an expert forger.

 

Have you reported this to the OFT?

Unfortunately, many people, when dating a form do put down their date of birth by mistake. My poor old mother included. May be worth bearing in mind, though that should have been noticed/checked at the acceptance stage by the OC!

We enclose a copy of your agreement as requested.

 

I knew straight away they were trying to pull a fast one because we both got accepted at the same time but get sent totally different agreements?

 

Its only two days away till its statue barred so I think a nice statue barred letter will be sent :)

 

They told me it goes by the default date but tell the wife it goes by the last payment so wish they would make up their minds?

 

I also will be reporting them

The cause of action is the last payment - so also report them for lying to you about the default.

 

Halibutt - thinking of some of the issues my mother in law had trying to claim her PPI back i could believe it. My wife had to take over the letter writing in the end - and got a repayment with one letter.

 

And me and the wife have the same discussuion every year about the date of our anniversary - neither of us can remember if it was the 2nd or 3rd :-) Good kob we still have the certificate.

Lowell sent my wife a letter stating her debt was not statue barred as she acknowledged the debt by making a payment of £100 on the 14th of March 2006.

 

So she sent an email on the 14th of march 2012 telling them this debt was now statue barred and I will not be paying it.

 

She received a letter this morning stating this debt now comes under the statue of limitations act and we will now be closing the account.

 

Her default drops off on the 14th of October 2012 but as of March 14th 2012 the debt is statue barred so the statue of limitations defiantly goes by last payment and not default date like that idiot lying git on the phone told me.

 

Thanks for the help guys and now I'm just waiting for my letter to come through now :)

Should there be information on my credit file from Capital one because according to Lowell I made a payment in February and default date was 10th of July 2006.

 

There is no information at all apart from Lowell when they started recording data in March 2008 when they bought it and I thought it should still show Capital one data?

 

And I will keep the letter and it feels good when its statue barred :)
