    • Northmonk forget what I said about your Notice to Hirer being the best I have seen . Though it  still may be  it is not good enough to comply with PoFA. Before looking at the NTH, we can look at the original Notice to Keeper. That is not compliant. First the period of parking as sated on their PCN is not actually the period of parking but a misstatement  since it is only the arrival and departure times of your vehicle. The parking period  is exactly that -ie the time youwere actually parked in a parking spot.  If you have to drive around to find a place to park the act of driving means that you couldn't have been parked at the same time. Likewise when you left the parking place and drove to the exit that could not be describes as parking either. So the first fail is  failing to specify the parking period. Section9 [2][a] In S9[2][f] the Act states  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Your PCN fails to mention the words in parentheses despite Section 9 [2]starting by saying "The notice must—..." As the Notice to Keeper fails to comply with the Act,  it follows that the Notice to Hirer cannot be pursued as they couldn't get the NTH compliant. Even if the the NTH was adjudged  as not  being affected by the non compliance of the NTK, the Notice to Hirer is itself not compliant with the Act. Once again the PCN fails to get the parking period correct. That alone is enough to have the claim dismissed as the PCN fails to comply with PoFA. Second S14 [5] states " (5)The notice to Hirer must— (a)inform the hirer that by virtue of this paragraph any unpaid parking charges (being parking charges specified in the notice to keeper) may be recovered from the hirer; ON their NTH , NPE claim "The driver of the above vehicle is liable ........" when the driver is not liable at all, only the hirer is liable. The driver and the hirer may be different people, but with a NTH, only the hirer is liable so to demand the driver pay the charge  fails to comply with PoFA and so the NPE claim must fail. I seem to remember that you have confirmed you received a copy of the original PCN sent to  the Hire company plus copies of the contract you have with the Hire company and the agreement that you are responsible for breaches of the Law etc. If not then you can add those fails too.

    • I understand what you mean. But consider that part of the problem, and the frustration of those trying to help, is the way that questions are asked without context and without straight facts. A lot of effort was wasted discussing as a consumer issue before it was mentioned that the property was BTL. I don't think we have your history with this property. Were you the freehold owner prior to this split? Did you buy the leasehold of one half? From a family member? How was that funded (earlier loan?). How long ago was it split? Have either of the leasehold halves changed hands since? I'm wondering if the split and the leashold/freehold arrangements were set up in a way that was OK when everyone was everyone was connected. But a way that makes the leasehold virtually unsaleable to an unrelated party.

    • 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 all - an interesting site.

 

I'm new to all these abbreviations -

 

CCA (request) - Consumer Credit Act? Or some other consumer protection legislation? Presumably this is a set letter that can be sent to banks etc.?

 

DCA?

 

Any other jargon that you can help with?

 

I'm sory if I am asking the obvious. I have looked at some length. I also cannot seem to find the templates that you refer to.

 

Thanks.

A CCA request asks for a copy of the credit agreement under the Consumer Credit Act. Template N here http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/general-debt/20758-creditors-dcas-letter-templates.html

 

DCA = Debt Collection Agency.

 

If you have a specific issue that you would like advice on it is best to start your own thread on it and you will receive lots of help and advice.

Many thanks Rory.

 

I must take some time to explore the site.

 

Just a note that may be of interest -

 

The registered address of a company is not necessarily its trading address; i.e. the place where it carries out its business. In fact, it most usually is not the trading address of the company, but usually the address of a firm of accountants or registrars (for share registration purposes).

 

Trading addresses of companies may possibly be found in business directories such as Kellys or Applegate. If not, a letter to the registered address asking for the trading address may bear fruit, but you may just get a P.O. Box number.

 

Most debt collection agencies hide behind a P.O. Box number address.

 

cheers!

Received a letter yesterday from Fredrickson Int Ltd on behalf of Arrow/Orange. Never heard of either co before yesterday. I've sent a recorded delivery letter to the PO Box address asking for info re the co claiming the debt and the address and date(s) for the alleged debt.

 

Any further advice on this one would be gratefully received.

Hi all

 

I have had trouble with this crew as well threatening all sorts. I had a protected Trust Deed (Scotland ) which I am proud to say I completed a few months ago. Last week I got a letter from Fred saying I owed capital One money, however I tried to tell them it was covered by my trust deed but as usual they wouldnt listen.

 

I called my trust deed provider and they wrote to them with all relevent evidence and instructed me if they phone again to give them their number. Well true to form Fred called again and I reiterated what I had told them before and told them to call the number but they said they couldnt do that ( maybe they hadn't paid their phone bill lol ) they could be talking to anyone to which I said but so could I be talking to anyone when talking to them, that didnt go down to well tho.

 

This week I got a letter threatening court action so again I contacted my trust deed provider, they checked the action they had taken and they had a letter from Fred saying they had passed the account back to Cap one, surprise surprise, however my provider called Fred again and asked what was going on and Fred said they had closed the account and to disregaurd the threatening letter.

 

I am so glad I checked this Forum way back when the first call came in and it just goes to show dont ever take their word for anything. Hopefully that will be the end of the matter for me and hopefully this post helps someone else who are hearing from these dispicable people.

Had Fred calling me too - until I made them aware that it is dispute, subject to an insurance claim and that contact is to be by letter only.

They then sent me a nice red LBA, so I sent them another nice dispute letter reminding them of this and to go away or be sued.

Dear Fredrickson International Limited:

Subject: Arrow Global LLC

your letter dated 11/09/09 is noted.

Consumer Credit Act 1974

I do not acknowledge ANY debt to your company. I require you to supply the following documentation before I correspond further on this matter.

You must supply me with a true copy of the alleged agreement you refer to. This is my right under your obligation to supply a copy of the agreement under the legislation contained within:

s.78 (1) Consumer Credit Act 1974 –

78 Duty to give information to debtor under running-account credit agreement

 

(1) The creditor under a regulated agreement for running-account credit, within the prescribed period after receiving a request in writing to that effect from the debtor and payment of a fee of £1, shall give the debtor a copy of the executed agreement (if any) and of any other document referred to in it, together with a statement signed by or on behalf of the creditor showing, according to the information to which it is practicable for him to refer,—

 

(a) the state of the account, and

 

(b) the amount, if any, currently payable under the agreement by the debtor to the creditor, and

 

© the amounts and due dates of any payments which, if the debtor does not draw further on the account, will later become payable under the agreement by the debtor to the creditor.

 

s.77 (1) for fixed sum credit.

77 Duty to give information to debtor under fixed-sum credit agreement

 

(1) The creditor under a regulated agreement for fixed-sum credit, within the prescribed period after receiving a request in writing to that effect from the debtor and payment of a fee of £1, shall give the debtor a copy of the executed agreement (if any) and of any other document referred to in it, together with a statement signed by or on behalf of the creditor showing, according to the information to which it is practicable for him to refer,—

 

(a) the total sum paid under the agreement by the debtor;

 

(b) the total sum which has become payable under the agreement by the debtor but remains unpaid, and the various amounts comprised in that total sum, with the date when each became due; and

 

© the total sum which is to become payable under the agreement by the debtor, and the various amounts comprised in that total sum, with the date, or mode of determining the date, when each becomes due.

 

I enclose a cheque no. ____________ to the value of £1.00 in payment of the statuary fee. This is not to be applied as any kind of payment to the disputed account.

A signed true copy of the deed of assignment of the above referenced agreement that you allege exists.

You are notified that you are obliged to supply these documents, whether you are the original creditor or not under S.189 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

As you are aware, a credit agreement that is not properly documented and signed by the customer is totally unenforceable under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and therefore is a complete defence to any court claim that is issued.

You the creditor have a period of 12 days working days in order to provide the agreement and the statement. If you cannot provide the information, the debt cannot be enforced until you do. If you the creditor are still unable to provide the documents after 1 month, they commit a criminal offence.

Take note at this stage, that any legal action you may contemplate will be both vigorously defended and contested.

Communication will be in writing only.

Personal visits by FREDRICKSON INTERNATIONAL LIMITED or its agents are refused.

Yours Sincerely
