    • Write to the IPC complaining that UKPC have not observed the requirements of PoFA . IPC  Waterside House, Macclesfield SK10 9NR Dear IPC, I am writing to complain about a serious breach of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 by UKPCM. I feel that as it is more a breach of the Act rather than not just  complying with your Code of Practice which is why I am bypassing your operator. Should you decide to insist that I first complain to your operator, I will instead pass over my complaint to the ICO and the DVLA . My story starts with being issued a windscreen PCN on 8/3/24 which was almost immediately removed and a second  PCN was then  sent by post on 13/3/24  [deemed delivered 15/3/24] which I did not receive and had to send an sar to have that particular mess revealed later  but that is not the reason for my complaint. UKPC then sent a Keeper Liability Notice dated 12/4/24 warning me that as 28 days have now elapsed, I as keeper am now liable for the charge.  This is in direct contravention of PoFA since the keeper does not become liable to pay until the day after the original PCN is deemed to have been given which would have been 13/4/24 -a Saturday ]. Not only does it not comply with PoFA but it fails to adhere to your Code of Practice and is in breach of their agreement with the DVLA. You will be aware that this is not the first time that UKPC have fallen foul of the DVLA and presumably yourselves. I have included copies of both Notices for information. You will realise the seriousness of this situation if this is standard practice from the UKPC to all motorists or just those where windscreen tickets are involved since the Law regarding PoFA is being abused and is unfair to misguide motorists. I await your  response which I understand will usually be within a week. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I would think that should be sufficient for the IPC to cancel your PCN though  you should await comments from the Site team before sending your complaint. Don't forget to include both PCNs.

    • 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 Em,

 

Time to send your LBA (letter before action) look in the templates section if you need any help in wording etc, although there are plenty of examples in the threads also.

Send that off (recorded of course) and wait another 14 days !!

 

Patience is required in large size for this game, but you WILL get you money back if you persevere !!

I'm in a bit of a pickle. I never managed to get my LBA to the post office last Monday because I was in a bad car accident on the way. Rubbish!

 

I managed to get it sent recorded delivery last Thursday, which already meant I was behind schedule. However, this has not yet been received!

 

The 14 days given in my LBA finishes next Monday (18th Dec).

 

So what do I do?!

 

Write them another letter giving them an extra 14 days, or write to them telling them have 14 days from a back date?!

 

oh god Im so pickled!!

Hi Em,

"panic not . . . fair maiden" !!

 

If your LBA 14 day deadline finishes next Monday the next setp is to issue your MCOL (claim through the court) this will incur a cost to you, it varies dependent on the value of your claim up to a max of £120.

You add this sum to your total claim (so u get it back) you also need to calculate and add interest at the rate of 8%

There is lots of help in teh FAQ and Library sections in here and there is a excel spreadsheet that will help with the calculations

 

If you get stuck, come back and we'll see if we can help (someone will)

Umm, sorry, I thought you had issued your LBA, no don't issue the MCOL yet, there is a risk the court could argue you have not acted reasonibly, you need to issue your LBA this and give 14 days . . .

 

Sorry, you have it seems lost a few days, but no matter you'll soon be back on track !!

Hi Em

I've just completed my claim against HSBC as well, so if I can be of any help to you, feel free to ask.

HSBC do take a long time to reply unfortunately, so it's just a case of waiting.

I hope you hear from them soon!!

God, I'm confused. I think HSBC are trying to pull some delaying tactics with me....

 

Received the following in the post this morning from a different person that I received my original letter from!:

 

"Dear Sexy_Em

 

Thank you for your letter dated 16th November 2006 concerning your request for a refund of bank charges. I apologise for not yet having fully completed my investigation.

 

I will contact you again by 15th January 2007 and expect to be able to provide you with a full response at that time.

 

In the meantime, I would like to thank you for your patience and enclose a copy of our leaflet which explains how these matters are dealt with. If you need to contact us, please quote the above reference number.

 

 

 

Colin Langdale"

 

 

Now my prelim was sent 16th Nov, received on 20th, and so this reply should have come thru before 4th Dec - but is dated 27th dec.

 

LBA sent of 4th Nov, but never received and so re sent on 15th dec and received on 22nd. These were both sent to Ian Shepherd - who sent me the original letter with my statements.

 

should I send this colin bloke a letter explaining that I have already sent 2 letters, and that I require a response by 4th Jan? (well, 7th Jan allowing 3 days for BH's?!)

 

?????????????!!!!!????????????????????

 

I think yes. the more people I can get involved, investigating, and annoyed (lol) the better.

 

wat u think?!
