    • Now that is an interesting article which adds afew perspective that I hadn't thought significant - but on reflection of the perspectives offered ... Now Starmer is no Blair, however 'blairite he may be perceived, but the Tories aren't tories and aren't even remotely liberal   The fast 'unannounced and unexpected election call from sunack may well be explained by the opinion linked that he hoped reform would be unprepared and effectively call a chunk of Farages largely empty bluster - making him look even more of a prat, leave scope for attacks on shabby reform candidates and mimimise core vote losses to reform - while throwing the 'middle ground' (relative) tories TO THE DOGS - and with the added bonus of likely pacifying his missu' desire to jogg off to sunny cal tout suite somewhat   thumb in the air - I expect about 140ish tory seats, but can hope for under a hundred Reform - got to admit the outside possibility of 1, maybe 2 seats with about 8% of the vote - but unlikely. I think projections of over 10% of the vote for reform is nudged and paid for speculation - but possible with the expected massive drives from Russian, Chinese and far right social media bot and troll prods targeting the gullible.
    • Commentary June 2024 WWW.ELECTORALCALCULUS.CO.UK Interesting article about just how bad it could be for the Tories.  Also Tories could be hoping on Reform not having candidates in many seats, as they were not ready.  
    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • 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?

    • 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.

Hello,

 

First post and I have had a search through the forums and can't find what could potentially answer my query. So I'm writing here, hope some of you can help and advise on the best action to take.

 

I had a sim only with Three in 2010, one month rolling contract. I cancelled this in March 2011 and paid what I owed. I have in June moved into my new flat and have just received a letter to say I owe £80+ on that bill. I had settled this and haven't heard from them since.

 

They do write in the letter that they've tried to contact me but I have never received any letters from them. They have said that they may not have been able to contact me due to my change address but I have only just moved three months ago... This phone bill is from over a year ago.. Just slightly confused. They have also said that I should contact Lowell Portfolio if I want to set up a payment arrangement.

 

I have checked my credit file, I reactivated my on-line one with Credit expert and have a default on the from Lowell Portfolio for the same amount in 2011?!

 

Because I have not taken out any credit in the last year, I have not been checking my credit file and didn't want to pay £14.99 a month but wish I had done now as this could've been sorted out a year ago...

 

Have read about Lowell and they seem awful and have read not to phone them.. I can pay the whole amount and if I owe the money I will, but not sure how to approach it as the advise seems to be not to contact them. Having been with Three, I know their customer service is shocking and they don't understand anything beyond a script that they read out.

 

Hope you can help me and advise the best you can. If it helps, I can upload the letter that I got from Three.

 

Thank you in advance

Thanks Gust,

I have just tried to register but have been unable to as they cannot verify my identity. Think this may may have something to do with me just moving in here in June and not on the electoral roll. I have told the local council I have moved in here but assuming they have not updated the records just yet.

I will try again once I am definitely on the electoral register. I will pay the £2 and get it in paper form in the meantime.

 

Also, have noticed another thread on this forum regarding three, with someone supplying Three's CEO email address and suggesting an email is sent to them. Sorry, I did do a search before writing on here, maybe not a through one. I will write to him.

 

Has anyone had any luck getting matters resolved after emailing CEO's? Or do the emails get passed to the complaints team?

Thank you.

im not on the electoral roll either mate.

 

could be registered address of card differs to your new address?

 

 

again i have applied to be on voters roll - but my council is in canvas and do not sell the info to the CRA's till OCT.

 

If you write to your local electoral dept and ask for them for written confirmation to be sent to yourself then you can forward to the CRA's to update your files. (some will provide some wont depending on your council it seems)

If i help feel free to click star on my post. cheers

They just get passed to a complaints team, no CEO of a major multinational company that I'm aware of answers this stuff themself.
