Account (16 digits) 2. The defendant failed to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a default notice was served under s 87(1)  of the consumer credit act 1974 which as not been compiled with. 3. The debt was legally assigned to the Claimant on 23/08/23, notice on which as been given to the defendant.  4. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the county courts act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £117.53 the Claimant claims the sum of £6281.14. Suggested defence 1. The Defendant contends the particulars of the claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.3 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. The claimant has not complied with paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre action protocol) failed to serve a letter of claim pre claim pursuant to PAPDC changes of the 1st of October 2017. It is respectfully requested that the court take this into consideration pursuant 7.1 PAPDC. 3. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have in the past had financial dealings but do not recognise this specific account number or recollect any outstanding debt and have therefore requested clarification. 4. Paragraph 2 is denied. I have not been served with a default notice pursuant to the consumer credit act 1974. 5. Paragraph 3 is denied. i am unaware of any legal assignment or notice of assignment. A copy of assignment was sent by Overdales solicitors when acknowledgement of receipt of CPR request was received, but this was not the original.   6. Paragraph 4 is denied. Neither the original creditor or the assignee have served notice pursuant to sec86c of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 Notice of Sums in Arrears and therefore prevented from charging interest on debt regulated by the CCA1974. 7. The defendant submitted a request for a copy of the alleged agreement pursuant to s78 CCA 1974. The claimant has acknowledged receipt of request but has failed to comply. The claimant has failed to provide any evidence of balance or Default Notice requested by CPR 31.14 8. It is therefore denied with regards to defendant owing any monies to the claimant. therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to:  a.  Show how the defendant has entered into an agreement with HSBC. b.  Show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a Default notice pursuant to section 87 (1) CCA 1974. c.  Show and quantify how the defendant has reached the amount claimed for. d.  Show how the claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity  to issue a claim. 8.  As per civil procedure rule 16.5 (4) it is expected claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 9.  Until such time the claimant can comply to a section 78 request he is not entitled, while the default continues, to enforce the agreement 10. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.     .
    • OK, well rereading the court orders from March, in the cold light of day rather than when knackered late at night, it is quite clear that on 25 June there will only be a preliminary hearing about Laura representing her son.  Nothing more. It's lazy DCBL who haven't read things properly and have stupidly sent their Witness Statement early. Laura & I had already been working on a WS, and here it is.  It needs tweaking now after reading the rubbish that DCBL sent and after all of LFI's comments.  But the "meat" is there.

    • Morning, I purchased a car from Big Motoring World on 10th December 2023 for £14899.00. On the 15th December I had a problem with the auto start stop function of the car in which the car would stop in the middle of the road with a stop start error message. I called the big assist and the car was booked in for February. The BMW was with them for a week and it came back with the auto stop start feature all fine and all error codes cleared on the report from big motoring world. within 5 days I had the same issue. Warning light coming on and the car stopping. I called big assist again and the car was again booked in for an other repair in May. Car was taken back in may, they had the car for a week and returned with the report saying no issue with the auto stop start feature and blamed my driving. Within 5 days of having the car back it broke down again. This time undrivable. I had the rac pick my car up and take to Stephen James BMW for a full diagnostic. The diagnostic came back with the car needing a new fuel system as magnetic swarf was found.  I have sent big motoring world a letter stating all the issues and that under the consumer rights act 2015 I have asked for a replacement vehicle. all reports from Stephen James BMW have been sent over to big motoring world. Big motoring world have come back and said they will respond to my complaint within 14 days for the date of my complaint letter. I am not feeling confident on the response from them, what are my next steps?   Thanks in advance. 
    • That is really good is that a mistake last off "driver doesn't have a licence" I assume that should be keeper? The Court requested me to send the Court and applicant proof of my sons disability from their GP this clearly shows he has Severe Mental Impairement, he is also illiterate.  I naively assumed once the applicant received this that they would drop the claim.  It offends me that Bank has asked the Judge to throw the case out at the preliminary hearing and to make us pay up.
    • Hi, we are looking to get some opinions on weather or not to bother fighting this PCN. This comes from a very big retail park parking where there are restaurants, hotel, amongst other businesses. The parking is free but I suppose there must be a time limit on it that I am not aware of. We were in the area for around 4 hours. Makes us wonder how they deal with people staying in the hotel as the ANPR is on what appears to be a publicly maintained street (where london buses run) which leads to the different parking areas including the hotel.  1 Date of the infringement 26/05/2024 2 Date on the NTK  31/05/2024 3 Date received 07/06/2024 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012? [Y/N?]  YES 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Entry and exit photos however, based on the photographs we are almost sure the photos are taken on public street. This is the location I believe photos are taken from.  https://maps.app.goo.gl/eii8zSmFFhVZDRpbA 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No Have you had a response? [Y/N?] post it up N/A 7 Who is the parking company? UKPA. UK Parking Administration LTD 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] The Colonnades, Croydon, CR0 4RQ For either option, does it say which appeals body they operate under. British Parking Association (BPA) Thanks in advance for any assistance.  UKPA PCN The Collonades-redacted.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.

I was wondering if you can help me to determine my next steps:

 

 

I have suffered bullying (i.e. Critisism & Isolation) by 2 people in my small team - over the past few years.

 

I have from time to time, raised particular bad issues to Line Management & HR. to no avail.

 

At Christmas I began to suffer work related RSI - which developed into full Musco skelatal symptons - which the doctors reported was excarebated by Work related stress.

 

 

During my RSI sickness - my line manager & HR were more & more hostile to me - as it was clear that they thought i was exagerating my RSI. I probably didnt help matters by requesting not to work so often in the office which I was receiving the bullying, partly because this exacerbated my RSI more than the Main office.

 

 

I eventually raised a greivance against manager & HR - backed up by details of past bullying (which were out of time)

 

After 3 months - my greivance was not upheld - I raised an appeal & Data access request.

 

This data access request has allowed me to see more bullying & libels perpertrated by my collegues - while i was off sick

 

iI am still Stressed on anti depressants, my RSI is getting better - but my sick record will not recommend me to future employers

 

 

 

Last week, We TUPEd to a new company - and I was put at risk of redundancy and will be made redundant after consultation completed - at start of August.

Then I must apply for jobs in the new structured contract. If not successful my redundancy will continue for my notice period (12 weeks)

 

My Questions are:

 

1. Obviously - I would prefer to get my job back and the new company does have to address my appeal....even if i am going to be made redundant.

2. I have met with the new company a few times and they have not raised the appeal issue - I presume this is because the meeting are about redundancy consultation.

3. Should they raise the appeal with me before the Interviews ? I am afraid that the Interviews may be affected by what my line manager said in his hearing - if I am not allowed to put my side of the story.

 

3. Does the new company have to hold off announcing my redundancy until the appeal is addressed.

Wether the appeal is upheld or not won't make much of a difference. The new employer will either listen to the old management, and find a way to make you score low on their criteria,and so be made redundant; or they won't, and they will be fair.

 

As it's an appeal against a greivane and not eg dismissal, no, they don't need to wait to announce redundancies.

 

Personally I would not talk to the new company aboout your greivance at all - least said soonest mended.

 

Note the new company does not have to address your appeal - the old one does. It's TUPE, not purchase of a going concern. If you still have concerns about being bullied then you need to raise a grievance with the new management.

Never assume anyone on the internet is who they say they are. Only rely on advice from insured professionals you have paid for!

Under TUPE, the new Company are responsible for continuing the appeal. I have investigated that.

 

But thanks for your advice to me , not to raise it with the new company at all.

My apologies beagle, as you have already transferred, you are quite right!

 

Yes, I'd keep your head down. With any luck the new bosses will quickly identify who the real problem lies with.

I should say, that I raised the appeal as I was a) unsatisfied with the Greivance process b) Thought that the Outcome had not addressed the majority of my greivance points. If I had accepted the Outcome - then the new company would think that I had raised a serious complaint - with no reason.

 

I did however, in my appeal letter state that , as the company was completely restructuring & in the interests of improving relationships - I would accept a letter to reassure me that Bullying would not be tolerated.

 

I have therefore hopefully drawn a line under it for the new company, ensure that they knew I had not raised the greivance unnecessarily and showed myself as able to compromise.

 

 

I am still worried about the things that i asked in my 1st post.

PS Emmzzi : I have been keeping my head down for 4 years.....trying to avoid the bullying.

 

This resulted in me feeling ill for the last year....& eventually not being able to function with RSI breakdown and Stress & anxiety break down - 4.5 months off work. Plus it encourages more bullying

 

I do not want to go their again - It will take some time for me to get over this.

I would have to ask why you have not moved jobs before now. Health is everything!

 

A payout that bought you some time to find a better work environment may be a blessing.

Ah. ask any bullying expert. Bullying creeps up on you.....you try to fix things.....then you withdraw etc.

I have got long service with the Company...I had a good well paid Job. i mistakenly thought that Managers & HR would support me.

 

I now know , from seeing the data access request.....that they gang up against you.

 

I do think that I will not be able to take as stressful a job in the future.....which will no doubt affect my pay level.

 

As for Payouts, it seems like, I will just have to sue for recompense (RSI & Stress). which is costly. I dont think I can just negotiate for recompense with the company ? Can I ?

you can suggest it while presenting evidence of their neglect. It might work.

I'd be glad to not talk to my new company; be able to be interviewed and assessed for job - without prejudice & start working again - with a more positive friendly team of people.

 

Then I can start restoring my health & get my life back on track.

 

But If that doesnt happen - I will have to ask why i was not successful in my interview & may have to consider some monetery payoff - to support me while I get my life back on track without employment.

 

In the mean time - I will take your advice offered a while back - and not mention it if they dont. And see how things pan out. I will keep you updated in the next month - if you wish - by adding to this thread as things progress ?

  • 1 month later...

Hi. A summary of the situation :

Bullying, Sickness, Greivance, Tupe to another Company,

The New company put us all At Risk 2 months ago on Garden Leave. Opened all the Jobs out for open Interview, I was not successful - though my tasks are still done.

So I am Now facing Redundancy - 3 months notice period

 

But my Greivance Appeal has still not been dealt with & the New company says there is not much they can do as all the Bulliers are in a different company.

I am glad to be going now so that I can start a clean sheet - but I will face a massive pay reduction in any new job - and My RSI may flair up again.

 

So what i am wanting from the new Company is some form of enhanced redundancy Payment, in return for me droping the Appeal.

I think this will be difficult to abtain as they will say that the reduncy is not related to the Greivance

 

So I will end up with absolutly no Closure on this one

 

Any Ideas ?
