    • The last photo shows the overflow carpark looking at the block which our room was located. When we got out of the car my partner thought that the building was for staff accommodation.  The unsecured bedroom window opened onto this car park.
    • Also I see that you are doing a lot of this on the telephone – and without any written confirmation. This is a big mistake. You need to start taking this matter seriously and so everything should go in writing. If you have telephone calls then they should normally be recorded. Read our customer services guide. You should make notes about every telephone call and then you should send an email to your telephone correspondence confirming what they have said or what they have agreed. It is important that you keep detailed paper trails here. Of course we may be jumping the gun and maybe big motoring world will step up to the mark – but I'm afraid that they have a lousy reputation has you have seen and so you need to start practising survival techniques and protecting yourself. You say for instance in your letter of rejection that the mechanic told you on the telephone that the gearbox needed replacing. Do you have any other evidence of this conversation? This is going to sound a bit harsh – but other people will be visiting this thread as well for their own purposes. You conducted their research about this company before you bought the vehicle. You now are fully aware that this is a company which can be very difficult to deal with and causes a lot of problems for many of their customers and yet you are still taking a telephone/verbal approach. Do I need to say any more? Also one of the documents you put up is an email exchange but it is not clear who is writing to who or what dates. If you showed this email to somebody in a pub they would be asking lots of questions about who sent the first message, who sent the second message, what dates were they sent et cetera. Please think about this before you post things. Please can you clarify the details of that email exchange. Please will you present the information carefully. We are all volunteers here and we have to rely on you to do the spadework
    • I told the DM that the room was not acceptable because of the reasons already mentioned. He informed me that they were full that night and that they could move me to the room next door (would not solve my problem with the rooms location). Told the DM that I could not stay in the room provided for the night so left no option but to leave. DM did not reply and I walked out.   IMG_1475.pdf IMG_1476.pdf IMG_1477.pdf

    • 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.

ok good people the letter has arrived as expected, it reads

 

as per my previous correspondance asking that you refrain from using the flat roof as a terrace , it has been brought to our attention that you are continuing to use this space and that your belongings are still present

i therefore request that your belongings are removed and you refrain from using this area with immediate effect. as explained in my last correspondance the area is not owned by regis ( my LL) and is now causing damage to the flat below as it is not strong enough to be used as a terrace.

 

there you go , for a kick off they are now in breach of the protection of eviction act section 1977c 43 part 1 section 1 paragraph 1 to 3 . as the area is part of my tenancy

also the what they now call the flat roof was refurbished in 2006 by a previous landlord who tiled the area so that we could use it as a terrace so I know for a fact it is strong enough for the job, also the new owner of the flat down stairs had a structural servey carried out 2 months ago and nothing was reported then, i also asked him if there was any damage to his flat and he said no, so they are talking a load of tosh and have not given any detail of damage caused

i am planning to reply quoting the info above .

 

i thank you for your help

You done the right thing by contacting a Solicitor.

 

I'm at a loss to what legal action your LL can take against you a Regulated Tenant,any injunction would very much likely fail as you have been using the patio since your tenancy started some 25+ years.

 

and there are No grounds for possession of your home under 1977 Rent act.

 

If they take back by force the patio,it's harassment under 1977 protection from eviction act,I would contact the police if they start using force....

 

If force is used and you have to contact the police insist on making a written statement,don't let them try to put you off and the police saying it's a civil offence,not criminal offence.

 

Have you a picture of this patio you can upload to the forum,to show us all,beaning very carefully not to give your location away or anything to identify who you are...

had an interesting chat with my landlord , they have asked to see proof that i was paying rent on the patio (which i Have) they are basically being harrased by the freeholder to stop me using the patio and threatened with breach of leasei have asked the landlord to check out why they brought a property without the use of the patio when the freeholder clearly knew that iit formed part of my accomidation, seems like the freeholder wants the landlord do the dirty work and get me out , the freeholder has stiched up the landlord , i wish i could prove someone has done something real dodgy here, its getting real nasty fun ahead

The argument is between the freeholder and landlord,not you..

 

It's harassment/Criminal offence,if the LL tries take away the use of the patio you been using for past 25+ years....

spoke to my solicitor who has advised me to see what they are going to try next as she also confirmed that this is clearly harrasment and advised that i have too much evidence against both the other parties for them to stop me using the patio,i have also written to the landlord again advising them that they are causing harrasment and their problem is with the freeholder I would like to thank everybody for their help and kindness, its very reasuring to know that there are people out there willing to help others in need a big thankyou

Good that a solicitor appears to agree with your view.

 

I find it surprising that Regis have been daft enough to buy your flat without appropriate due diligence - either that or the freeholder has failed to disclose information that they should have done!

Big sorry just frustration, seems like every time I try to do something someone kicks me back down. I was hoping to be able to use my legal insurance if this went to court but insurance company's being what they are yet again I get stitched up .... I dunno

 

I see,thanks for keep up posted, hope your enjoying the warmer weather on the Patio :wink:

 

 

Might be worth posting something in the insurance thread?

 

It's best the OP sticks to this thread !

 

Any court case against a regulated tennet is almost doomed to fail anyway and LL would end up paying All costs

well its been quite for too long, low and behold in the post today I get a letter telling me to remove my property from the patio or they will remove my property and charge me for doing so, my landlord also has tried to push the buck by saying that they are only doing what (and heres the term) is required by the MASTER LANDLORD and any thing concerning the use of the patio is noting to do with them even though they are my landlord and i pay them money and i have it in writing on my fair rent agreements from the past that i pay rent for the patio, i have advised my landlord that i will call the police if anybody comes onto my patio without my permission , i think what they are doing is getting it cleared so they can put a new pitched roof on to stop me using it, have advised the planning office to be ready for a phone call as no permission has been applied for , my landlord keeps sayong its nothing to do with them and its the master landlord who i should be dealing with but im pretty certain they are just trying to cop out of things

Might be useful to say who sent the letter. It can be confusing when there are two other parties involved.

 

Presumably the master landlord sent the letter? May be worth replying just so they are quite clear.

 

Did your solicitor suggest getting an injunction? Or was that too costly?

As you posted on 10th April 2012 16:29 #13

 

 

I have about 10 years worth of registered rent documents which clearly state the use of what they call a patio

 

You have proof the patio is for use only,part of your home, the argument should be between the freeholder and landlord,not you...

 

Your solicitor is your best bet and I still think legal action under 1977 protections from evictions act for damages in the civil courts if you loosed the patio !

 

Or a injunction as Steve_ M suggested ....

"the master landlord does not even acknowledge i exist , to him im just **** of the earth who is in his way of converting flats"

 

That's unfair, the master LL (superior LL, poss freeholder) has no legal connection to you, only HIS T ie your LL who must abide by the Head Lease and apply them to his Ts.

You need to speak to a solic trained in Lease's and LL&T law to read all documents.

You mention registered rent documents, do you mean Fair Rents registered by Rent Officer ie do you have a Controlled Tenancy? When did you move in?

OP is a Regulated Tenant and rent is registered as a fair rent under 1977 Rent act

 

Documents are from Fair rent registered as posted hear http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?344262-possible-breach-of-tenancy-act&p=3787026&viewfull=1#post3787026
