    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?
    • The neighbour's house is built right on the boundary so the side of their house is effectively the 'wall' in our garden separating the two properties. It's a three storey house and so the mortar poses a potential danger to us. Because of the danger, we have put up an interior fence in our garden to ensure we don't risk mortar dropping on us. That reduces the garden by 25% which is not only an inconvenience, but it's the part of the garden where we had lined up contractors to install a patio and gazebo which we will use for our wedding reception in less than 2 months. We have spoken to the neighbour's caretaker who is on the case, has spoken with a roofer and possibly a scaffolding company, but there are several issues. They don't seem to understand the urgency. As long as there is a risk of falling mortar, we can't carry out any work in the garden, and unless they hurry up, we're looking at cancelling our wedding as it's not viable to book a venue because we can't use our own garden! Also, they want to put the scaffolding up in our garden which would be ok with us if it was a matter of a few days and they hurried up, but there is a tree (most likely protected by the conservation area), so most likely they can only reach part of the roof with the scaffolding if they put it up in our garden. We suggested a roofer with a cherry picker but they seem to want to use a company they've used before. Any and all comments, suggestions, advice is more than welcome.  PS. does it make any difference that the neighbour is a business (ltd) and not a private dwelling?

    • 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.

Had a mortgae with ANMFL back in 1997 which came with cashback of about £7k for which i had to pay 0.75% above their standard variable rate on the whole mortgage for five years or repay the cashback. As I had no intention (hope) of paying back the mortgage in that timescale, there was no issue :)

 

I moved house after a couple of years and simply moved the mortgage to the new property - still no problem

 

At the end of 2000 I was offered a job in Jersey where it wasn't really possible to own a house. Couldn't rent it out for anywhere near the amount of the mortgage and so had to sell and repay the mortgage :?

 

Despite various appeals to Abbey, pointing out that if I didn't sell the house I would default on the mortgage the still stung me for £7,438 Early Repayment Charge :evil:

 

There followed various letters all in the same vein including some extraordinary and banal explanations of how they had lost money, which as I pointed out at the time would mean that they would have lost £38,000 had I redeemed the mortgage after one day - banks are really that silly?????????:eek:

 

Eventually they issued a deadlock letter and pointed me in the direction of the Office Of The Banking Ombudsman - at that point I gave up!

 

The I found this site and have now started again.:p

 

First letter sent 4th July 2006

 

P*** o** letter from Abbbey sent 12th July 2006

 

LBA sent 21st July 2006

 

letter from Abbey 26th July - if you want to take us to court - here is the address for service!

Hi Moliver,

 

Best of luck with this one. Abbey aren't the most accomodating of companies to deal with. Their latest trick is to threaten to multi -track and tell you their costs are already the same as your claim. Have you pmed a mod the claim no and details?

 

All the best

Hi Zoot

 

Thanks for your words of support - if their costs are higher than my claim then I wouldn't want to be a shareholder in Abbey. If the ERC is the same value on day one of the mortgage as it is at the end of five years I just can't see how they can argue a 'genuine pre-estimate'.

 

Haven't pmed a mod - how do i do that?

 

 

Regards

 

 

Mark

As expected the stalling has started!

 

They had until tomorrow to acknowledge (18th October)

 

Received in the post today a letter from DLA Piper with a request under Part 18 for further information - basically acoount numebr and address.

 

Does this mean that I cannot apply for judgement for a further 14 days?

Well that's over a week since judgement was issued and I've not heard a word from Abbey, their solicitors or the Court - anyone got any advice on how to proceed particularly as the claim is £11k?

You can't send in the bailiffs until the judgment has actually been granted. I'm not sure how long it takes from issue for them to enter judgment. In my claim against Littlewoods it was only a matter of days.

 

It might be worth phoning the customer services at MCOL and find out what has happened. It may well be that Abbey are disputing the judgment and asking for more time. Don't contact Abbey at this point as it may well alert them to the fact that they need to get the judgment set aside.

 

All the best
