    • HI DX Yes check it every month , after I reinstated the second DD I was checking every week. Also checked my bank statements and each payment has cleared. When responding to the court claim does it need to be in spefic terms ? Or laid out in a certain format? Or is it just a case of putting down in writing how I have expained it on CAG?

    • You have of course checked the car is now taxed and the £68 is stated against  the same reg?  If the tax for the same car did over lap, then I can't see you having an issue pleading not guilty Dx

    • Afternoon all Looking for advice before I defend claim for car tax payment that the DVLA claim I owe £68 from an idemity claimback from my bank and unpaid tax  brief outline. Purchased car Jan 30th ,garage paid the tax for me after I gave them my card details  first payment £68 out in Feb 24  followed by payment of £31 from March due to end Jan 24 Checked one of my vehicle apps and about 7-10 days later car showing as untaxed? No reason why but it looks like DVLA cancelled it , this could be because I did not have the V5 and the gargae paid on my behalf but not sure did not receive a letter to say car was untaxed.  Fair enough I set up the tax again staight away in Feb 24  and first payment out Mar 31st , and each payment since has come out each month for £31 , this will end Feb/Mar 2025, slightly longer than the original tax set up, all good. I then claimed the £68 back from my bank as an indemity refund as obviously I had paid but DVLA had cancelled therefore it was a payment for nothing?  Last week recieved a SJP form dated 29th May stating that DVLA were claiming for unpaid tax and a false indemity claimback which of course is the £68. It also stated that I had received two previous letters offering me the oppotunity to pay that £68 but as I had not responded it was now a court claim that I must admit guilt for or defend. My post is held for weeks at a time from Royal Mail ( keepsafe) due to me receiving hospital tretament at weeks at a time that said I did not receive any previous letters from DVLA. I am happy to defend this and go to court but wondering what CAG members think? In summary I paid an initial amount of £68 and then a DD of £31 , tax cancelled  I set up a new DD at £31 a month all in the month of Feb 2024, I claimed the £68 back from my bank. DD has been coming out each month without issue and I have paperwork to show the breakdown for both DD setup's plus bank statements showing the payments coming out . The second DD set up has extended payments up to Feb/Mar 2025. DVLA claiming the £68 was ilegally claimed back despite the fact they cancelled the original DD for reasons unknown. Is this defendable ? I will post up documents including the original DD conformations

    • 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.

No as far as I know it's people that claim hb and ct that get took to court (I.e me)!!! You shd be ok I've not gone to ca coz a lot of people say they don't help!! Ur prob have to pay back wars owed coz uve admitted u done it but they won't take much off u so I really wouldn worry,

 

I've changed all mine over now so just waiting to hear back from council wat there deciding to do, I really didn't want to change it all but at same time didn't want to accur getting into any more trouble than wat I am esp coz he will still be coming and going and I won't be dictated to by them who I can or can't have in my house when he not even supporting me in that way. I may of made a situation look worse but like u I have admitted he comes and goes so I'm hoping that goes in my favour, but doubt it knowing my luck

they have just rang she asked why i hadnt stopped claiming as a single person i said that things just got out of hand and i kept putting it off and she said so you were doing it for the money? i then said yes because i couldnt say anything else really she said that my claim is now finished and that someone will be contacting me to try and get the money back and to decide what to do next have i got any savings? which i replied no she said paying off a lump sum might be helpful she doesnt know how far back they will go and couldnt tell me what was going to happen as it was alot of money then told me i could claim as a couple but if i tried to claim i was single it would flag up! and that was that all i can think now is that i shouldnt of told CAB it was 5 years as it looks like i am in serious trouble i know without fail i will be the one person who does get sent to prison as an example to others - i still havent told my partner or anyone else as i am so ashamed i am at my wits end

  • 2 weeks later...

Just thought I would give you all an update, rec'd my notice to pay which was £13,000 and have just phoned them, spoke to a really lovely lady who asked me how much could I afford to pay, told her at a push £50 per month, she then asked me for my income/expenditure which I had ready and after we went through it all she agreed with that amount and has set up a direct debit :):) I'm so happy its finally been sorted out, its like a weight of of my shoulders, I know its going to be a struggle but after all the stress and worry over the last few months I might actually get a nights sleep without waking up and the first thing I think of is the bloody tax credit office! Good luck to you all out there and I really hope you all get the outcome you want!! :) xx

Hi

they didnt ring me they just sent a letter. My letter to them was sent at end of March and they didn't reply to me until 11th April, but my initial investigation started on the 8th March! It might be taking a little while because everyone is renewing their tax credits and they are probably busy.

I know its easy for me to say try not to worry but like ECB49 i also owe £13,000 and its just great to know its nearly over, well except the repayment amount which i'm gonna dispute!
