    • Thank-you dx for your feedback. That is the reason I posted my opinion, because I am trying to learn more and this is one of the ways to learn, by posting my opinions and if I am incorrect then being advised of the reasons I am incorrect. I am not sure if you have educated me on the points in my post that would be incorrect. However, you are correct on one point, I shall refrain from posting on any other thread other than my own going forward and if you think my post here is unhelpful, misleading or in any other way inappropriate, then please do feel obliged to delete it but educate me on the reason why. To help my learning process, it would be helpful to know what I got wrong other than it goes against established advice considering the outcome of a recent court case that seemed to suggest it was dismissed due to an appeal not being made at the first stage. Thank-you.   EDIT:  Just to be clear, I am not intending to go against established advice by suggesting that appeals should ALWAYS be made, just my thoughts on the particular case of paying for parking and entering an incorrect VRN. Also, I continue to be grateful for any advice you give on my own particular case.  
    • you can have your humble opinion.... You are very new to all this private parking speculative invoice game you have very quickly taken it upon yourself to be all over this forum, now to the extent of moving away from your initial thread with your own issue that you knew little about handling to littering the forum and posting on numerous established and existing threads, where advice has already been given or a conclusion has already resulted, with your theories conclusions and observations which of course are very welcomed. BUT... in some instances, like this one...you dont quite match the advice that the forum and it's members have gathered over a very long consensual period given in a tried and trusted consistent mannered thoughtful approach. one could even call it forum hi-jacking and that is becoming somewhat worrying . dx
    • Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant .... I said DCBL because I was reading a few threads about them discontinuing claims and getting spanked in court! Meant  YOU  Highview !!!  🖕 The more I read this forum and the more I engage with it's incredible users, the more I learn and the more my knowledge expands. If my case gets to court, the Judge will dismiss it after I utter my first sentence, and you DCBL and Highview don't even know why .... OMG! .... So excited to get to court!
    • Yep, I read that and thought about trying to find out what the consideration and grace period is at Riverside but not sure I can. I know they say "You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is"  but I doubt they would disclose it to the public, maybe I should have asked in my CPR 31.14 letter? Yes, I think I can get rid of 5 minutes. I am also going to include a point about BPA CoP: 13.2 The reference to a consideration period in 13.1 shall not apply where a parking event takes place. I think that is Deception .... They giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other! One other point to note, the more I read, the more I study, the more proficient I feel I am becoming in this area. Make no mistake DBCL if you are reading this, when I win in court, if I have the grounds to make any claims against you, such as breach of GDPR, I shall be doing so.

    • 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.

 

I was involved in a car accident several months ago and decided to claim for car damage and personal injury as I had taken time off work.

 

After several months of constantly chasing my solicitors they have now advised that the other insurers have wrote to say they have not received the medical report and they would need to re send the report. The report was initially sent 4 months ago

 

Any solicitors on here? Can you advise what the process is of submitting medical reports, are they done electronically. It's taken 4 months for my solicitors to pick up on this.

 

Any advice on this would be great.

 

thanks

Hi, with the new RTA Portal system, the claim will be submitted then the other side insures have 15 days in which to respond on liability. Have they admitted liability in your case? If so, stage 2, would be that they submit your medical report, engineers report and any loss of earnings or special damages. From what I remember there is another 15 days (working) for them to respond.

 

However, if your claim fell out of the portal at stage 1, ie liability is denied or can't be agreed as more investigations are needed, it would fall back into the old regime known as "predictive". This would give the other side 3 months to carry out investigations and then they would have to revert on liability.

 

Everything is submitted electronically and they should have picked up on it after 3-4 weeks maximum if they had chases the the side when in the portal system.

 

But if it fell back into predictive, they will have been doing chasers but the chasers will have been "do you have a decision on liability yet?" then the 3 months would be up an other side have said they don't have relevant information. I'm assuming a part 36 offer was sent with the medical report? If so, they would only have 21 days to respond.

 

One of the problems is that the insurers are always in a massive backlog, can never help at the time and it's very frustrating for the solicitors acting on claimants whale as you do everything you can to get an answer but you just can't.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi

 

Thanks for this very informative post ARoyle.

 

My claim must have fallen out of the portal as liability was initially denied by insurer. I was hit by an overseas lorry driver contracting in the UK and his UK agency were having difficulty getting hold of the driver for circumstances. In any case liabilty was subsequently admitted by his insurers.

 

I went for a medical and this was sent to the 3rd party insurers. I am not sure what a part 36 offer is but my solicitors did write after obtaining the medical report to state due to the report we think an offer of £xxx should be put forward as an offer of settlement and sent this along with the report. I am assuming this is the part 36 offer you mentioned.

 

But my main issue here is that why after almost 5 months after obtaining my medical report have my solicitors come back to state 3rd party insurers did not recieve the report and they are sending again. When a claim drops out of the protal would the report be sent electronically or via post.

 

Is there anyway for me to obtain a copy of my file from the 3rd party to see exactly what is going on. I have tried to call them but they will not discuss anything with me and state I need to speak to my own solicitors.

 

Thanks

As you have legal representation the TPI will not be allowed to speak to you.

 

Also, could you clarify if the Defendant is a foreign registered vehicle? If so then the claim would not be issued through the MOJ portal.

 

In addition the investigation period would be 6 months and 21 days instead of 3 months and 21 days from submitting the claim.

 

As for the medical report, it doesn't matter and can be sent be fax, post or e-mail.

Liability is not an issue as 3rd party have paid out for vehicle damage. I understand now that medical report could have been sent via different means so that's fine. I get the feeling my solicitor is not being 100% truthful.

 

Will a Subject access request work if I send this to 3rd party insurers?

It might do but I don't understand why you don't just ask your solicitors for a full explanation?

 

It sounds like they have just sent the medical report and they forgotten about it/sat on it for a while.

 

I think this is what has happened but they don't seem to admit it.

 

Ok now that they have re submitted the report along with a part 36 offer what options do I have if the other side do not respond within 21 days?

 

Thanks

Hi

 

Just to update the other side have finally made 2 offers £1350 and then £2000 for personal injury, they have not put an offer in for wages.

 

I asked my solicitors to reject both offers as I feel it is on the low side. They said I was given a 10 month prognosis and according to JSB guidelines the offer they put forward is about right.

 

I know not all cases are the same same but £2000 for 10months prognosis is this about right?

Valuing injuries is not an exact science. The JSB says the following in relation to neck injuries:

© Minor

Minor soft tissue and whiplash injuries and the like where symptoms are moderate:

(ii) with a full recovery between a few weeks and a year. £875 to £2,850

 

Only you can decide if you want to follow your solicitors advice. If you have been advised that the offer of £2,000 is baout right then you would be at risk in relation to costs by rejecting it and then not beating their offer.

I've asked to settle. I asked my solicitors how long before I expect payment. I was told we should allow 6 weeks before I get paid.

 

Is this a reasonable time to wait for payment.

I would say normally 2 weeks ish for the cheque to arrive. 6 weeks seems a little long but not much you can do about it...
