    • Here's a suggested modified version for consideration by the team. (Not sure whether it still gives too much away?)   RE: PCN 4xxxxx Dear ALLIANCE PARKING Litigation Dept, Thank you for your dubious Letter Of Claim (dated 29th April 2024) of £100 for just 2 minutes of overstay. The family rolled around on the floor in amazement of the idea you actually think they’d accept this nonsense, let alone being confused over the extra unlawful £70 you added. Shall we raise the related VAT issue with HMRC, or perhaps the custodians of the unicorn grain silos? Apart from the serious GDPR breach you’ve made with the DVLA and your complete failure in identifying the driver, we’re dumbfounded that the PCN is still not compliant with the PoFA (2012 Schedule 4 Under Section 9.2.f) even after 12 years of pathetic trial and error. We also doubt a judge would be very impressed at your bone idleness and lack of due diligence regarding parking periods. Especially with no consideration of section 13 in your own trade association's code of practice and the topological nature of the Cornish landscape versus a traditional multi-storey. And don’t even get us started on the invisible signage during the ultra busy bank holiday carnage, that is otherwise known as the random parking chaos in the several unmarked, unmanaged over-spill fields, or indeed the tedious “frustration of contract” attempting to get a data connection to Justpark.  We suggest your clients drop this extreme foolishness or get an absolute hammering in court. We are more than ready to raise the above issues and more, with a fair minded judge, who will most likely laugh your clients out in less time than it takes to capture a couple of useless ANPR photos. If you insist on continuing this stupid, money grabbing quest, after having all of the above pointed out, we will of course show this letter to the Judge and request “an unreasonable costs order” under CPR 27.14.2.g and put it toward future taxis to Harlyn Bay instead.  We all look forward to your clients' deafening silence. Signed, "Spot". (Vehicle Keeper's pet Dalmation).
    • Paying DCA's one penny, never mind £50 per month is a mugs game, they have really been milking him as a cash cow   See where received a claim form is underlined in your post, you need to click, on that and read carefully, then answer the questions, then copy and paste into a post on this thread Forget the CAB ,  their advice is sometimes weird. Is it worth defending? Lowell brought these debts for 10 p in the pound , years ago, because they are flawed. Think about it! if it was such an easy win, Capital one could have taken it to court and crushed him.  It could be an invalid agreement, default notice, or many other things. In a nutshell , yes, and we can help you.

    • 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.

Hi all. Am currently repaying Castlebridge credit and Mackenzie Hall on the 1st day of every month, and have been since February. I have paid on time every month. It totals to £120 a month. It is basically all my spare money after essentials. There have been no treats, nothing, but I knew that and was keen to be free of these debts. However next month I could do with the cash as basically its hubbys 40th and I want to get him a nice present and take him for a lovely evening out. I was going to contact then and ask if I could pay them a bit less that month but am concerned they would refuse and it would be treated as a breach of the agreement. Just wondered if anybody could advise and if I'm making a huge mistake or wasting my time by asking at all. Thanks

Try it. Just say you did a few less hours this month and need to reduce the payment for one month only.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Hi

Have you done a personal Income and Expenditure form (not to send to them)

If you are spending all your spare cash, what about emergencies? what about having a life?

 

Work out what you can afford and tell them that is what they are getting. If they don't like it-well tough. They would be unlikely to go to court as you will be paying something.

 

Can you let us know what type of debts these are?

The debts are payday loans, I was made redundant last year and almost went under. It was hell, I got a new job just before Christmas and was desperate to get rid of these debts. I also have a monthly agreement with Barclays to clear my overdraft. My final repayment is in June and then my bank is account is back out of the red and I will be £100 better off per month. I did create a budget sheet and I admit I stretched myself to get rid of the debts, clothes shopping seems like a distant dream! But I got myself into that mess and that's the price I have to pay

I'm sorry but I disagree for this reason

 

I was made redundant

 

Before you were made redundant, you wouldn't have thought of the mess. I would suggest that redundancy was not your fault so why should you suffer. Yes, it will clear these debts off quicker but at the expense of living. I don't think so

I shouldn't have taken out the payday loans in the first place, It was before I lost the job but it was such a foolish thing to do. I have been considering asking them if I can pay less per month but I would need good reason, and in the eyes of a debt collection agency having a life is not an option.

But in the eyes of the law its a necessity.

While I do appreciate how you feel and any decisions made must be your own, MUCK HALL and Castle bridge credit are DCA's who have NO LEGAL POWER over you.

I emphasised MUCK HALL because they are the lowest of the low in the DCA food chain

Oh well, I don't mind being wrong.

 

I would assume that a load of charges were added to these accounts before they were transferred. Yes/No? While not as easy to get the charges wiped as a credit card, they can be done as most charges are unlawful

Oh no silverfox I wasn't trying to make a point of making you look wrong at all, I appreciate you taking the time to help me out.

 

Don't worry at all. Even though my name appears orange, I still have lots to learn.

 

Going back to the top, Renegadeimp says to ask for the reduced payments. You can try that way if you wish (I won't be offended) or choose a different route. That is what I like about this forum so much. It gives you the information and then you can decide which way to go.

 

Good luck with it though

You are all right, it is my money and I decide who gets how much, and I have already proved myself to them by making previous repayments, so I imagine they would be hard pressed to take court action

I would imagine your credit file is already stuffed so that isn't an issue and as you are paying something, they would look VERY silly going to court. The courts don't like DCAs using them as their collection agents.

Well I hope at least by repaying my debts it works in my favour towards repairing my credit rating. Repaying my overdraft and keeping my nose clean with Barclays should help aswel
