    • The address is only a paper address with no actual manned staff address. Police have rang me this morning and taken some more information including the details of the driver who they say they will contact and interview.  They are also putting in a formal request to Shiply to get the couriers driving license and biometric information held on file. IF anyone else has been in the same position with this particular courier, please please let me know and we can perhaps go down the strength in numbers route xx
    • Heres a point, while we wait for @theoldrouge to condemn rather than promote and support right wing bigots spouting genuine and clear monstrous antisemitic rhetoric ... Isn't it actually specifically unlawful to promote violence against politicians on top of laws to criminalise such things? ...

    • Morning dx and thank you for your message.   With regards to your comment about them not needing to produce the deed, the additional directions ordered by the judge included 'a copy of any assignment o the debt or agreement relied upon'  so that is why I thought that point was relevant?
    • Sorry for the long post but I don't want to miss out any relevant information: My wife bought a car from Trade Centre UK and have been having nothing but trouble with it. Unfortunately we paid of the finance used to buy the car as we weren't expecting this much trouble with the car as we we though we would have protection as buying from a dealer. We are wondering if we can still reject the vehicle since the finance plan has been paid off. Timeline is as follows: 13/12/2023 -15/12/2023 Bought car from Trade Centre UK for £10548 £2000 deposit paid on credit card on 13/12/2023 £8548 on finance from Moneybarn (arranged through Trade Centre UK). picked up car on 15/12/2023 Also bought lifetime warranty for £50/month 25/12/2023 Engine Management Light comes on. The AA called out and diagnosed the following error codes: P0133 - Lambda sensor (bank 1, sensor 1) Oxygen Sensor. Error Message : Slow reaction. Error sporadic P0135 - Lambda sensor heat. circ.(bank1,sensor1) Oxygen Sensor. Error Message : Component defective Due to it being Christmas took a few days to get through to them but they booked me in for 28/12/2023 to run their own diagnostics. 28/12/2023 Took car in to Trade Centre so could check the car – They agreed it was the Oxygen Sensor and Booked me in for repair on 30/01/2024. I was told they had no earlier slots, and I would be fine to carry on driving car when I said I was afraid of problem worse. During diagnosing the problem, they reset the Engine Management Light. During drive home light comes back on. 29/12/2023 - 29/01/2024 I carry on driving the car but closer to the date, engine goes to reduced power every now and again – not being a mechanic I presumed that this was due to above fault. 20/01/2024 Not expecting any more problems paid off the finance on the car using personal loan from bank with lower interest rate. 30/01/2024 Trade Centre replace to O2 sensor (They also take it on a roughly 60mile road trip which seems a bit excessive to me – I can’t prove this as something prompted me take a picture of milage when I handed car in but I forgot take one on collection – only remembered next day.) 06/02/2024 Engine goes in reduced power mode again and engine management light comes on – Thinking the Trade centre’s 28 day warranty period was over I booked the car the into local garage for the next day to get problem fixed under the lifetime warranty package. Fault seems to clear after engine was switched off. 07/02/2024 In the Morning, I take it to local garage who say as the light gone off – the warranty company is unlikely to cover the cost of the repair or diagnostics and recommend I contact them when the light comes back on. In the evening the light comes back on and luckily I manage to get it back to the garage just before it shuts for the day. 08/02/2024 The Garage sends me a diagnostics video showing a lot error codes been picked up by their diagnostics machine including codes for Oxygen sensor and Nox Sensors, Accelerator pedal and several more. Video also shows EGR Hose not connected to the intake manifold properly, they believed this was confusing the onboard system as it is unlikely this many sensors would trigger at same the time but they couldn’t be certain until they repaired the hose. 13/02/2024 Finally get the car back as it took a while to get approval and payment for the repairs from the Warranty company. Garage told me to keep an eye the car as errors had cleared with the hose but couldn’t 100% certain that’s what caused the problem. 06/03/2024 Engine management light comes on again. Fed up I go into Trade Centre as I was just around the corner when it happened and asked them how to reject the car or have the problem fixed. They insist that as it’s over 28 days I need to get the car fixed under the warranty package I purchased and they could no longer fix the car as it was over 28 days. When I tried telling them it appeared to be the same or related problem they said they couldn’t help as I hadn’t contacted them earlier. I asked them if they were willing to connect the car to the diagnostics machine and tell me what the problem was, as a goodwill gesture, which he agreed to do and took the car to the back He came back around 30 minutes later and said they took a look at the sensor they replaced previously and there was nothing wrong with it and engine management light went off when they removed the sensor to check it. When I asked what the error code he couldn’t give me an exact fault but the said it one of the problems I told him earlier (Accelerator pedal). I have this visit audio recorded on my phone – I informed the reps I was recording several times. As the light wasn’t on, local garage couldn’t book me for a repair under warranty. 07/03/2024 Light came on so managed to book back into local garage for the 12/03/2024 Whilst waiting to take car into garage, I borrowed a OBD sensor and scanned for errors on the car. This showed the following errors: P11BE – Manufacturer specific code (Google showed this to be NOX sensor) P0133 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor B1 S1: Response too Slow 12/03/2024 Took car to local garage and the confirmed the above errors. This leads me to believe that either Trade Centre UK reps lied and just reset the light or just didn’t check properly (Obviously I am unable to prove this) 22/03/2024 Finally got the car back as according to garage, the warranty company took a long to time to pay for the repairs 28/04/2024 Engine management Light has come back on. Using the borrowed OBD scanner I am getting the following codes: P0133 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor B1 S1: Response too Slow P2138 - Accelerator Position Sensors (G79) / (G185): Implausible Correlation I have not yet booked into a garage as I wanted to see what my rights are in terms of rejecting the car as to me the faults seem related. I can’t keep using taxi or train to get to work every time the car goes into the garage as it is getting very expensive. Am I right in thinking that they have used up their chance to repair when they conducted the repair end of January or when they refused to repair it in February ? If I am still able to reject the vehicle could you point to any sample letters or emails I can use. Thankyou for your advice on my next steps.

    • 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.

Dear Mr *****

 

Thank you for your recent payment.

 

Unfortunately we are unable to accept this payment as you have requested documents for an account we do not manage, please find the cheque enclosed.

 

If you do require documentation for a Loan Account, please confirm the loan agreement number and return the cheque to be represented. Cheques should be made payable to Lloyds TSB a/c HPES.

 

If you have any queries about this, or any other matter, please do get in touch with us.

 

....

 

 

I am not sure if they are trying to confuse me but the reference i sent was stated on the SCM letter and i sent a postal order and not a cheque that they have returned back. Should i send a second CCA request letter or send them further information?

 

I assume they have some record as they have been forwarded the request from SCM?

 

Any help would be most appreciated

 

Thank you

solojedi.. what exactly are you attempting to obtain from SCM ?

 

If it is a Subject Access Request or CCA1974 request then these do indeed require to go to the actual creditor.. Which I am assuming is LTSB in this instance.

No problem..

 

Right, well a Subject Access request entitles you to ALL the information that the company holds on you with respect ot your financial relationship with them - sometimes they will even provide the agreement. This is called a DPA 1998 Subject Access request. They have 40 calendar days to comply with the request. You need to send £10.00 with the request.

 

CCA1974 request is a request for just a copy of the agreement, a statement of account and also any terms and conditions.. both from inception and current. They have 20 working days to comply with this request and it will cost you £1.00.

 

You should send your request to the original creditor and always post these requests via a tracked method of posting.. either Special or recorded delivery.

 

HTH

 

I will move these posts to a thread of your own and send you a link.

Thank you for your reply Citizen and for kindly offering to move the thread, i will look out for the link.

 

I have sent CAA1974 request and have not heard from LTSB. I have been looking for a CCA second letter template but have not been able to find anything as of yet. Would you know where I might be able to get one from?

 

Thanks again

The letter was sent to SCM but the reply was from Lloyds TSB with a copy of my letter enclosed...I can resend it to them but as the 12 days have passed now thats why I wanted to send the second letter. Do you have a template letter for a SAR by any chance?

I would need to check the agreement to confirm if it included PPI.

 

Thanks

They are solicitors

 

i know scm are sols. but, you said that loyds said that they do not manage the account requested? has it been sold to a dca? and that there may be a loan account? is this separate/different?

fuller details needed sol

Sorry Ford :| - Yes Lloyds did say they do not manage the account but did not mention who does or if it was sold. I originally had a loan and credit card with Lloyds both accounts where passed to BLS. I assumed that SCM where solicitors/dca's working on behalf of Lloyds so wrote to them directly. I do remember I received letter from BLS collections based in Oxford in 2011 regarding the same debt but then starting receiving letters from SCM.

yes, scm are loyds inhouse sols (and bls are loyds inhouse dca). when you did the cca request which a/c did you state? cr card or loan. it looks as if it was the former, of which they no longer manage. but, they still have the loan account.

I stated the reference number scm solictors stated on their letter. Based on the amount they where requesting I did think it was the full amount for both the credit card and loan. If Lloyds no longer manage it does it mean it's back with BLS or sold to someone else whom i am yet to hear from? Would the loan have come back to them from BLS , is it best to send a letter for a SAR ?

 

Thanks for all your help

ok. difficult to suggest what's happened without fuller details. if they don't manage an a/c that they once did, then it's prob gone to an external dca? but then you should've received some notice of this? maybe the reference number you gave confused them?

a suggestion; do a cca request for each account to loyds. see what they come back with. also, do a sar for all the data they hold. there is a template letter on cag for a sar. the 'notice of intended litigation' you mention sounds like a typical dca threatogram, and not an actual letter before claim. but you never know with that lot!
