    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??
    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.    
    • Hi. Please don't follow McD's advice to contact Met to appeal. They won't listen and you could end up giving them helpful information. HB

    • 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.

I read up on that PIP

 

Under PIP there will be more medicals,more frequent checks and No more self assessment.

 

Everyone on DLA between ages 16 to 64 will have to put in a new claim for PIP between 2013 to 2016

 

I don't think people realise the amount of changes coming in to DLA..

Please use the quote system, So everyone will know what your referring too, thank you ...

it isnt surprising as IB to ESA I consider very major changes, they will not rehaul a benefit just for minor changes.

 

 

I'm not talking about IB to ESA..................

 

It's major changes to DLA for people between ages 16 to 64 http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?346406-Dla-renewal-failed&p=3800006&viewfull=1#post3800006

you misunderstood me in that I meant that I knew they wouldnt change DLA to PIP just for a mobility change and it was more significant changes as well.

It says 16 - 64 between 2013 and 2016. Does that mean if someone will be 65 between 2013 and 2016, they won't get PIP and will stay on DLA?

 

All it says on over 65+

 

Aged 65 or over

 

If you're aged 65 or over on the day Personal Independence Payment is introduced, you'll keep getting your Disability Living Allowance. You will need to continue to meet the entitlement conditions. You'll not need to claim Personal Independence Payment.

I was waiting to see if anyone noticed that!! You have to laugh about it or it makes you go abit nuts!!! And you are right, you have to fight for everything. I think we all get tared with the same brush when it comes to benefits. Everyone thinks that we are all scroungers and lazy about getting free money for nothing. If only that was the case!!! Fight, fight, fight, it's the only way and it's disgusting that we have to go down the lines of appeals etc

Hi I was re-assessed for my DLA approx March this year. I was on higher rate care and mobility, nothing about my condition had changed so I filled the form in the same as I had previously. The DWP asked my GP for a report but when I got the decision I was given higher rate mobility and lower rate care.I asked the DWP for reconsideration but this time I contacted my consultant, nurse specialist and my GP and asked them for supporting letters explaining my condition and how it affects me on a daily basis I supplied this information to the DWP and within three weeks I was put back on the higher rate of both, so I think the key is to get as much supporting evidence as you can and to go into as much detail as possible about how your condition affects you. Hope this helps

It may be the case now since the last general election,they ask for supporting information from GP's and Consultants or you need to supply supporting information and in your case you ask for a reconsideration..

 

Unfortunately,it's all going to change when PIP starts and people between ages of 16 to 64 DLA is stopped over 3 year period and people Will have to put a new claim in for PIP.

 

PIP will be in the hands of ATOS :!:

Hi, yes I think your right, even when I filled my DLA form in March using exactly the same information as I had the previous time I got a different result.

I think things are going to get a lot more difficult in the future.

Hi, I find it’s a good practice to keep your old forms as a memory aid because from what I’ve read on forums it’s not what you say but how you say it. using their terminology is the best way to meet their descriptors. I downloaded the decision makers hand book which is the book they use to see if you meet the criteria. Also if your condition hasn’t changed there’s not a lot you can do but keep repeating yourself. In my consultants letter he stated that my condition was permanent and I would never be fit for any type of employment but the DLA still say we will review you in two years to see if there is any improvement.

Yes I know that DLA isn’t about employment. My consultant’s letter covered every aspect of my condition including my inability to work. The point that I was trying to make but maybe not very clearly is that even thought he stated that my condition was permanent and would never improve they still said that they would review me again to see if I had indeed improved.

I have used to the same forms and then added more infor onto them as I have been on different drugs, had more procedures etc. The CAB have been filling the forms in for me and it's they who have the copies. The thing I don't get is that they used my out of date ESA medical, which I won and put into the support group, not the WRAG, as I am unable to work due to my illness. I even laughed because it also stated that I would recover fully and my condition would be much improved by the time I came to another medical. But yet on a paragraph below this comment it's clearly states that the medical examiner 'does not think a wheel chair would help my condition, my illness is long term and work is not and would be possible for me to so'

I understand now. I think I found a document a while back where it states how long to award someone with a certain condition for. Given that the name is irrelevant, I do find that strange.

 

I remember some years back there was a website online (probably accidental hosted on a dwp.gov address.)

 

It had a list of health conditions, and next to them it would say either decline reward, refer to medical or reward (then low rate or high rate) was 100s of medical conditions listed. That site is now gone and I cant find it again so I suspect it was meant for intranet only.

 

Seemed very bizzarre considering the official guidelines for DLA.

That's the one I'm thinking about. Quite frankly, it's a load of rubbish. According to that my difficulties would be overcome by using visual aids. Anyone classed as visually impaired, has a condition which is not possible to correct by glasses.

 

But I know I fall in between the moderate and severe category.

Hi, I have been awarded higher DLA rates for both care and 'getting around' (I have a severe spinal deformity with which I've had 2 failed full length spinal operations/mitral valve problems in my heart/ internal organs twisting around and being crushed due to ribcage deformities/ dislocating patella's (waiting for 2 knee replacements which I can't have for another 15 years as I'm only 41/ spinal stenosis/tendonitis in all tendons- had a wrist operation last year and now waiting for my shoulder to be done....due to tendonitis - and now arthritis in my left hip - oooh the joys LOL - but, I'm alive!!)....I've been getting this for 8 years and rely heavily on my car (although i can no longer drive - my hubby is my chauffeur)....What gets me about this useless government is the fact that despite us poor souls who have had 2 medicals to be able to get DLA indefinitely- we are being penalised. I am on incapacity benefit and was waiting to be summoned to an ATOS medical BUT, about 8 months ago - I received a letter saying that they had considered me going for a medical but my disabilities are so bad - they didn't bother.....But, I know we are being moved onto the Personal Independence payment ...apparently 'I will be invited' to do so in around 3 years time as that is when my car is due for renewal.....The Assessment for this 'new' benefit is available to view online and it is quite different from the DLA assessment. I have a friend who has COPD which is so severe she has oxygen in her house and she cannot walk 5 steps without being totally breathless. She was on the low rate care and mobility component so she asked to be reviewed - she had a review and they took it off her !!! She is totally devastated. The people at the office checked with my friend's GP and consultant and because she's not been able to attend the GP surgery (as she would need CPR if she attempted to) ...they've said her condition doesn't warrant DLA !!! The GP failed to say that my friend has regular 'home visits' instead....she's appealed and reappealed to be turned down both times again.....I'm dreading the swap over to PIP - I think people are going to have to be verging on death to claim it !x
