    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • Yes, it was, but in practice we've found time after time that judges will not rule against PPCs solely on the lack of PP.  They should - but they don't.  We include illegal signage in WSs, but more as a tactic to show the PPC up as spvis rather than in the hope that the judge will act on that one point alone. But sue them for what?  They haven't really done much apart from sending you stupid letters. Breach of GDPR?  It could be argued they knew you had Supremacy of Contact but it's a a long shot. Trespass to your vehicle?  I know someone on the Parking Prankster blog did that but it's one case out of thousands. Surely best to defy them and put the onus on them to sue you.  Make them carry the risk.  And if they finally do - smash them. If you want, I suppose you could have a laugh at the MA's expense.  Tell them about the criminality they have endorsed and give them 24 hours to have your tickets cancelled and have the signs removed - otherwise you will contact the council to start enforcement for breach of planning permission.

    • 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.

into believing the SB date runs from default date 19/12/2006

afaik, once the deferment period ends, the payments become due.

in yours, august 06 deferment ended, so according to their terms, they cld then have started the process of recovery (cause) after the first missed payment thereafter. but, the def notice was over 3 mths later. termination notice not until june 07.

edit :)

it will be tight, partic also as the J seemed to have leaned with them saying 'need more than limitation'

Hiya, they both did.

 

........when we were going to initially proceed...the claimant started by saying your honour or something like that "may i bring your attention to ....Limitation.

 

then the judge mention it after about 10 mins after adjourning the case and giving me a copy of the claimant statement while i was packing up to leave he mentioned it

Well there's a lot more to it than just Limitation...otherwise the court would not of adjourned and could have given judgment there and then.

 

Have you received anything further since the hearing......further directions to parties ? or is it just your Witness statement that needs to be sharpened or the Claimants also ?

further direction was read out by the judge as he was writing and confirm after writing his note. .....that i need to submit my new statement both to the court and claimant sol within 14 days and the case will be adjourn 14 days after that.

 

while he was writing his note he asked me if im going to send a new statement and i replied i dont think so sir. he now said i think you will need to considering the statement of the claimant you just received.

 

And the clerk also said i'll receive a letter as well but it hasnt arrived yet

That would be the statement that they failed to serve on you not less than 7 days pre hearing.....which you could have asked for sanctions to be imposed for failing to adhere to the courts directions...and should be inadmissible...... let's see what you get from the court and we can sharpen it .

i guess it wld be arguing that the cause for limitation purposes runs from the end of deferment,

or just thereabouts ie before the october as thats when they issued the claim? it will be close.

 

generally, cause shld be when there can be cause to start recovery (ie a breach) and claim upon,

regardless of a later required formalised 'notice'.

 

 

a claim is about a breach, not necessarily a notice (unless theres no breach, but a notice calling in),

and a def notice is about a breach if not rectified then actioned upon

ie the breach is the cause of action. thats just imo :)

 

 

and, it seems it wld take some argument to convince that dj to that way (though some experienced J's do seem to see it that way)

 

also, was the default notice wholly compliant.

 

this is my post in another thread awhile ago

'ibberty (mould smile.png )

in general

you mentioned that there is no domestic authority re def notice/limitation. as you know, in such, the courts can consider leading cases from commonwealth with similar laws. albeit not precedent.

heres a leading aussie case where the matter was discussed (they have a v similar credit/limitation regime). eg para 38 etc saying that a def notice is re exercise (procedure) rather than existence of the right/cause, so being re enforcement not cause re limitation (the basis of my thoughts posted prior)? wonder if HC and above wld see it that way?

the case itself was re a loan which is different to a credit card. but the def notice re limitation general issue was still considered.

have a read, see what you think.'

http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/v.../2003/343.html

 

i havent checked caselaw recently re any authority re cause. but, as said, if there isnt any specific domestic authority then other (commonwealth) case law can be considered in argument. the aussies have a v similar regime (s107 being their def notice ' ...being concerned with the exercise rather than the existence of rights' ).

see what you think.

No, i filed late to the court, i took my evidence to court on the 26th of Jan and the hearing was 1st of feb. and i posted it to the claimant sol first class on the same day 26th.

 

but claimant sol claimed they did not received it.

 

And i did not receive the claimant sol evidence at all, reason why the case was adjourned

You must resubmit your witness statement and evidence by the stated date in the Order......there wont be much difference to your initial witness statement apart from informing the court they conveniently missed off the order that the claimant failed to serve you theirs and that sanctions should have been imposed...whats good for the goose is good for the gander.
