    • How much of the documentation have you seen from when probate was obtained? And do you have a copy of the original will? I can't remember. My thought about you making the decision on your own to go with another lawyer is that three of you are meant to be beneficiaries of this will trust, aren't you? Normally you would need to act together. HB

    • Hi guys, I am about to file my defence via email as cannot log in to the claim anymore.  Can you please advise if I can paste below and if it's good to go for now, or should I add anything else in?  Thanks!  The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and 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.  The Defendant is the recorded keeper of vehicle xxxx xxx.  2.  It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant - Parking Eye LTD.  3.  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 simply contracted by the landowner 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.  Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim.   4.  In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant.  5.  The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer.   6.  The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety.  It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

    • 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,

 

received a cheque from Halifax for CC PPI from 2001-2011. Total premium paid was £2900 and they z have paid me £2200 interest. Im guessing this is simple interest when I should have argued for compound interest? Is it too late for me to pursue this any further as I have not signed anything they just sent me the cheque?

 

I'm guessing I have missed out on a good few grand because of this as the card always had a big balance:|

Hi,

 

Need a wee bit of advice around a 3 rollover loan 2x halifax with PPI going into a secured consolidation loan without PPI. I submitted a claim on the grounds of a pre existing health condition whch was not taken into account regarding the suitability of the PPI for me, being misled that it would improve my chances of being given the loan and a couple of other ones which on reflection did not really portray the crap selling of this policy to me.

 

I received a very long winded refusal letter which picked at each point of my complaint such as : my med condition did not prevent me making full use of the policy. I think this is a rather generic response designed to put people off but I am not going to back down, the seller definately misled me and I suspect the payout would be quite substantial. I intend to appeal with more details as to why the policy was unnescessary for my circumstances such as permanent contract with excellent sick pay etc but would really appreciate it if anyone can point me to the best style of response? I could scan and post up the letter but dont know if that is asking too much of people??

Hi

 

Two threads merged and tidied.

 

Yes please post up their refusal. Remember to take out all personal information first though.

 

Do you by any chance have a copy of the policy which details what it would have paid out on and the various exclusions?

don't forget you can use a mobile phone or a digital camera too!!

or

convert existing PC files to PDF [office has an installable print to PDF option]

BUT......

ENSURE: remove all pers info inc barcodes etc using paint program

but leave all figures and dates.

goto one of the many free online pdf converter websites

it would be better to upload a multipage pdf if

you have many images too rather than many single pdfs

or if you have PDF as an installed printer drive use that

Here is the letter of refusal to which I need help replying to, I don't recall getting any explanations of the medical exclusions and the fecker even responded "I can't say it will and I can't say it won't" when asked directly if ppi would improve my chances of the loan being approved.:mad2: I hope the PDF works!

Hi,

 

Please can someone take a look at the attached letter

stating the reasons I felt I was mis sold PPI on two loans and Halifax's response.

 

When I took the loans out it was a hurried process from their part and nothing was explained in detail around the policy or it's exclusions,

I was in full time, permanent employment with excellent sickness benefits but this was not asked about at all.

 

During the consultation for the first one I explicitly asked the seller if my taking out the PPI would improve the chances of success

and was given an answer of "I can't say it will and can't say it wont" which was completely wrong.

 

I know I can't prove this part but ANY advice or additional angles that would prove useful in my appealing this decision would be brilliant as I am really struggling at the moment.

 

In particular I had taken time off work prior to applying for the loan and my most likely claiming reason( anxiety /depression)

would have meant it would not have paid my installments at all, but again none of this was explained.

 

I am happy to submit a SAR with my appeal as the FOS would need this info but would hope they would reconsider their decision.

 

Apologies to admin as I have started and severely messed up a previous thread a while ago but thought it better to start this afresh.

that is their standard fob off reply.

 

you should challenge it

 

do you have the full amount of PPI paid etc and interest rates charged? if not then SAR them for the information and complete a full FOS PPI reclaim form and do your own spreadsheet to reclaim.

 

Others will be along later with more info I am sure.

IMHO i would simply say

 

please find enc an SAR

 

You 'appear' to be commenting on what 'you think' happened, given your 'sales process' at the time.

 

IMHO this a pure 'speculation' on your behalf.

 

however, i am entitled to see the documents you are relying upon

hence the SAR.

 

i formally REJECT your findings, you WERE NOT THERE.

Just submitting a claim to Halifax for a mortgage PPI policy sold to me in 2000, it is a seperate premium of £15 per month but I am unsure what compensatory interest to claim ?

 

144( months) x £15 =£ 2160 but what to add then ?? 8% simple interest is I think £172.80 so the total = £2332.80, this sound right guys.

 

Thanks

Well the idiots lost the first letter I sent despite signing for it but

 

spoke to them this morning and they received it's replacement sent last week and

 

have upheld my complaint !!

 

Just need to wait for their offer,

 

Not sure what to expect as it looks like

 

I paid £270 and £530 PPI in 2001 and 2003 respectively with no signs of rebate from the SAR docs into the second loan when I refinanced it

or anything back from the second one when it was settled.

Just got a refusal letter from Halifax as the PPI policy was sold to me by a broker, they have advised me to approach the Financial Services compensation service?? Do they generally pay out???

 

I kind of see their point but shouldn't they have ensured the people they allowed to sell their products did so in an ethical way?? plus they have taken grands off me so why should someone else repay this??

 

The broker still operates so can action be taken against them?
