    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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.

Have been with Asda Mobile since 2009 with no problems.

 

Just over two weeks ago I started receiving text messages from Asda Mobile regarding set up details for Internet and picture messaging.

Over the past few days I have had over forty messages. It makes no difference if I accept the settings or not.

 

I have contacted their customer services.... nine people in all.

Some advisors have confirmed the sending of set up texts has been disabled.... no effect they still keep on coming. Other advisors have said they cannot stop the text messages and claimed I have a fault with my sim card. Another sim card tried, again still the same problem. I was then asked to reset my phone with no effect. Next they said my phone was faulty and I should return to my supplier. I tried another mobile phone with my sim card and once again the texts are still arriving.

 

I believe the problem is caused by changes Asda Mobile(Vodaphone) have made to their system in the past few weeks. This is causing the setup text messages to be sent out when my phone logs onto their network.

My phone connects to my car phone system using Bluetooth rSAP, when I leave my car the Asda network seems to regard my mobile as a new phone logging onto their network and it sends out between two and six text messages each time.

 

 

Anyone else had the same problem ?

couple of points

1st of all this is not "unsolicited". You obviously have a business relationship with Asda.

2nd Have you lodged an official complaint? (read this HERE) Tell them assertively what you want them to do about this.

 

Personally, I think there is something strange here, If it were all customers I think the forum would be flooded... May I ask if you are sure that someone is not pranking you by continually sending the settings from their website?

If in doubt, contact a qualified insured legal professional (or my wife... she knows EVERYTHING)

 

Or send a cheque or postal order payable to Reclaim the Right Ltd.

They are 'unsolicited' regardless of any consumer/business relationship:-

 

Read - 'Unwanted text marketing messages'

 

It is unlawful for any business to send marketing messages by text, mms or video to your

mobile phone without your consent. If you receive an unwanted text marketing message on

your ASDA Mobile handset, please report this to a colleague on the ASDA Mobile Helpline.

We use the information reported to us to assist the different regulatory authorities to take

action against offending businesses.

Are you swapping sims on the phone? That normally causes the mobile to receive texts for the new settings. Failing that there is a problem with your sim which is making it continually register as a new sim to the mobile.

It's not marketting tho. It's the settings for MMS and internet.

 

You can recieve these automatically if the network sees your phone as not "set up" correctly with these and also if requested via an online form. Thats why it points towards a sim error or a handset error.

 

"unsolicited" is when they grab your number from the phone book and send texts, and you have not given prior consent. That's not what is happening here.

Again, this is not "marketing" it's the settings for the phone to send MMS (picture messages) and to set up the internet on the phone.

 

There appears to be an error and it may not be with Asda's network. It may be either with the sim, with the phone, or someone else is ordering the settings via the phone manufacturers website.

 

My tack would be to lodge this as a complaint with Asda and ask them to resolve this problem.

Locutus thank you for your reply.

 

"Unsolicted" as I have spoken to nine different CS advisors asking them to stop sending the text messages

 

Yes, I have lodged a formal complaint by letter.

 

I believe the problem is because of a change in the Asda(Vodaphone) network. Been with Asda Mobile for some three years without this problem.

Their system is detecting a change of mobile phone when the Bluetooth rSAP system is used.... never a problem in the past.

 

The text message are from Asda Mobile.... confirmed by their CS advisors.

Agree it's not 'marketing' but some useful info nevertheless, no doubt other have encountered the same problem, auto generated 'texts' about settings.

 

Rebel11 thank for all your info.

 

Could be regarded as marketing as the info is to setup my phone for additional cost bearing services which I do not need or want ?

 

..... only 20 Texts received today !

Could be construed as marketing - of additional services from your phone that you would require the new settings for.

 

If you don't want to use picture messaging then you don't need the settings

Hi xcat

 

Depending on how you get on, write a Formal Letter of Complaint, mark it as such. Explain whats happened, how they have let you down (unsolicited texts - after nine calls they continue, quote what Asda say:-'It is unlawful for any business to send marketing messages by text, mms or video to your

mobile phonelink3.gif without your consent. If you receive an unwanted text marketing message on your ASDA Mobile handset, please report this to a colleague on the ASDA Mobile Helpline. We use the information reported to us to assist the different regulatory authorities to take action against offending businesses.') and what you want them to do.

 

Send it to:-

 

Andy Clarke, Chief Executive

Latest update... Got nowhere from formal complaints to Asda, letters ignored ! Many more people have the same problems.... Checkout.... http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Nokia/Configuration-texts-on-rSAP-disconnect/m-p/1411136/highlight/false#M27976 and http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/263326-columbus-and-text-messages-on-disconnect/ It looks like I have to change to a different provider. As a temporary measure I have found an App which blocks the first part of the text message, but is unable to block the second part

On 02 there is a text number you can forward unwanted messages - I've done it quite a few times now. They collate the messages and find out the original source and then block it.

 

Vodafone might have something like this - :Lee, the Vodafone rep on this site might be able to give you the number.

Vodaphone is the source of the problem.

 

I believe Lee already is aware of this.

See...

 

http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Nokia/Configuration-texts-on-rSAP-disconnect/m-p/1411136/highlight/false#M27976

 

I am guessing Lee on the Vodaphone site is the same as here.

 

Since the start of the software change in Vodaphone's system, middle of last year, I have received in excess of 2000 unsolicited text messages from Vodaphone... yes 2000 !

It blocks my phone and makes it very difficult to read valid text messages.

Telephone requests and formal letters requesting a stop to the messages are simply ignored.

 

It would seem the only fix for the problem is to move to another provider.

I find it difficult to understand why Vodaphone has decided to alienate some of their customers. But from looking at the number of Vodaphone complaints on this site it's not surprising.

 

Another company which does not listen to their customers.

Hi not sure if you could use this but I had an app on an android phone that blocked any number you wanted blocked may work with this.

 

dpick

 

dpick,

Thank you for your reply.

 

You will see in my post #20 I am using an app to try block the text messages.

 

The messages are sent in two parts, one with info they are about to sent a setup text and the second part is the setup text.

The text headers indicate it is a two part message, marked part one and part two.

The apps I have tried can block the first part but not the second.

I have contacted a couple of blocker software suppliers/developers, supplied copies of the text messages and headers. Both have confirmed they cannot block the second part of a two part message.

Received 2400 text messages in about eight months, contacted 14 different Asda Support people and sent two letters.

 

My phone has now been placed on their VDC Blacklist system.
