    • 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.

Hi me again :-)

 

I managed to dig out all old paper work. And turns out the loan i had from 10 years ago was acually from First National.

 

I had £20000 loan and they added £3270.46 Protection payment premium. The monthly APR is 8.750% then shows another rate of 10.9%.

 

I paid this loan for 11 months then loan was paid back.

 

Can anyone advise what sort of PPI reward i can claim back? and also has First National been taken over by GE Money and has anyone had any success with claiming from them?

 

Thanks

its not just a letter

 

as advised in yr other ppi threads

 

you need toi do the statint spreadsheet

the FS CQ

 

and a covering letter.

 

you need to workout what % of your PAID payments was the PPI element

and the dates you made payments.

 

you do not use their int rate, but 8% stat int, the spreadsheet does it for you.

 

total cash price of PPI / total cash price of loan * 100 = xx%

 

workout what xx% of ANY payments you made was

 

then enter those PPI element payments into the spreadsheet with each date you made them.

 

please do some reading up.

 

the more you read the stronger we become

Ok thanks dx. I have some work to do :-). I have a few claims to make. I have just dug out my old mortgage statment from 2003 and noticed that it says property insurence £6,271.97. Would this be PPI? If so i wasnt awear of this.

property insurance ??? building or contents ins??

 

if you already had ins then they've spoofed you

or if they told you it was compulsory when it was not.

 

although it is often in their T&C that you must have BUILDINGS insurance

for a mortgage.

 

there is no legal remt that you MUST.

 

if you had another policy that already covered what they have charged you for

then it was missold.

Hi

 

I called up GE Money to get the full address of the complaints dept. The lady said i can do it over the phone. I gave her my account number etc and she said as I went through a broker i would have to contact them. Is this correct? Does anyone know if Blue Sky are still trading?

 

Also just to let you know i have had success from Santandar and also just had an offer from first national which is much bigger then i could of imagine. Didnt take long at all.

 

Thanks

thanks dx.

 

I called up Blue sky and they didnt tell me any different and gave me the address to write to.

 

If i write to First national are they not going to just send me a letter telling me the same thing as the lady on the phone?

 

Is it definitly FN that need to refund me and not Blue Sky?
