    • Worth noting that all of these firms - either the alleged EIS investment, the rebate company themselves or the payee were all registered to the same address. Clavering House is 3 miles away from HMRC Benton Park view offices.   Wardrop - unfortunately unsuccessful due to late appeal - assessments opened by HMRC in March 2019. Scammed by Richard Hall (Capital allowances consultants ltd - Clavering House) investments into Cryoblast Limited 15/16 (Paul Huggins - Clavering House) and Eco Cooling solutions 16/17 (Anthony Fitches - Clavering House).    Mccuminsky - scammed by Capital Allowances after providing his details to Stefan Brown Alpha Tax Consultants (Clavering House) payment made to Eco Cooling Solutions.    Robson - scammed by Capital Allowances - 15/16 paid to Cryoblast 16/17 paid to Eco Cooling.    Myself - scammed by Allan Maxwell - MaxTax (other business Maxwell electronics) registered to Clavering House.   Cryoblast Solutions and Fast Tax - Alan O’Hara    Please note there are two Cryoblasts involved - Cryoblast limited (Paul Huggins and Clavering House) and Cryoblast Solutions Limited (Alan O’Hara also director of Fast Tax).    My return simply said “Cryoblast” another thing that should have been clarified as part of HMRC guidelines before paying out the claim.    Cryoblast limited was already suspected to be involved in fraudulent claims before my investment as Huntly had open assessments issued in November 2018.    Cryoblast Solutions, the same company director as Fast Tax where my money was sent was dissolved before my claims were submitted.

    • dont need them.   let the defendant play the terms game
    • I am reading the thread now and think although its probably very similar to my predicament,  I have no way of obtaining the terms anymore due to MyParcelDelivery having being dissolved and their website not being active now. I have nothing to quote from and they didn't send me a copy at the time of order, the website that I believe they reinvented themselves as P4D has terms I am looking at now but however similar they may be I wont be able to quote from them in this case. Thanks 
    • Thankyou for your reply jk2054 thats put my mind at ease regarding going forward, appreciate your help.   Thanks Bankfodder, I will look over that thread now. In regards to the further info: Item was a jacket, value £995.00 and was declared correctly Item was fully insured to the value and £995.00 declared correctly  Item was sent on 03/02/23 Thanks

    • 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 everyone, I am new on here so not sure how this works but looking for some help regarding this question and would be greatfull if any of you could answer it for me :-)

 

I am currently on Jobseekers and in January of this year (2012) I been put on the work programme by jobcenter and its by bootstrap, not sure if any of you heard of it? anyway I believe it lasts for 2 years, well what happens when I finished the all 2 years if I haven't found a job by then (which I hope as I hate been on JSA as i need a job ASAP)

 

Do I go back to signing weekly as at the moment since I am on Work Programme I sign fortnightly or will Jobcentre closed my claim? I really hope they don't close my claim as I am living on my own in my flat (as I moved in this January and I am loving it on my own) and I don't want to loose my flat and be homeless if they stopped my claim after the work programme as I am worried, should I be worried? :???:

 

Also what really annoyes me is I have applyed for loads of Jobs and never get any responses, its so annoying, anyone agree?

 

Any advice would be great thank you.

Omg I just googled and I found that people who haven't found a job at the end of the 2 year work programme has got to do community service work, is this true?

 

Well if its true and I haven't found a job at the end of the work programme then I have no choice to do it as I don't want to loose my JSA as i don't want to loose my flat and end up homeless :sad:

I don't know a lot about the work programme, but I do know that come April, those under 35 in private rented, will only be eligible for the shared room rate of housing benefit, not the one bedroom rate, so this might be something you want to look at if you're in private rented.

Well I tried pasting the link but when I submit it says I need to reach posts 10 before I can paste, anyway go to google and type this in (what happens after the work programme) and its the 3rd one down as you will see it stated community work.

Thanks but I had no choice as my parents also was on the housing list for a bungalow and I would have been homeless if I didn't get this flat so when I was on b-with-us bidding for flats on a weekly basis calico housing changed my band to band 3 as I was on 4 at first and I wasn't getting anywhere with 4.

yes at the end of 2 years , there would be a 'community benefit' , 'activity' that you would have to do. this is 30 hours with 10 hours job searching for 6 months. basically community service.

. your 'bootsrap' provider is your new JC adviser and you have to do everything they say. you can look on 'consent me' website its worth knowing your rights and check DWP legislation on there site. You probably would still be with your provider at end 2 years, but signed up onto a different scheme, or going to a different company for a workfare thing, so its 2 weeks signing i d imagine. Not sure what will happen when universal credits come about next year, you would still get money but i bet less and it would come every 4 weeks in lump sum.

I m guessing you would have your money stopped unless you had a good reason not to do it like an illness. you could negotiate less hours if for example you are in a homelessness crisis or develop a condition mental health/well being /are a victim of bullying. There are docs about it on DWP website -

this will just be nice for xmas...all those employers rubbing their hands in an imitation of scrooge, getting their 'free elves' no wages or NI to pay....it must be manna from heaven for them.....all those little elves beavering away, no elf and safety rules to worry about....and if they dont turn up, hey just ring the provider and get them to send another batch...

didnt the germans try this back in the 1940's something about 'work will make you free'!!!

the figures i found are absolutely staggering....972,000 people x 26 weeks x £6.18 per hour = £5.4bn, and that is not including NI payments that employers should be paying!!!!

these are the figures that govt is calculating that will have spent 2 years on the work programme, and failed to get gainful employment, so completing their sentence, and then having to complete 26 weeks unpaid 'work experience' in order to keep accessing their benefits.

gayguy... sorry i cant help, just wanted to say that this is legalised slavery!!! there is a shortage of jobs, people want jobs, and if people can not find jobs then they have to do community service! common sense would be to create jobs in place of what you will be forced to do on community service

 

if you are really desperate for a job, there is a lot of farming type jobs available around Wisbech / Cambridgeshire

I am already doing community work, as a volunteer - and it looks like I might get a full time job out of it! I am appalled at the 2 years on this 'provider' system and their '2 year follow up' as it clearly shows that nobody in the current Government understands one simple fact

 

A lot of UK based jobs have been farmed out abroad or are being done by EU people with LESS experience at that role than UK people - and this can be proven!

I am currently on the work Programme by Jobcentre and I started in January 2012 and I finish in January 2014 as it lasts for 2 years.

 

Anyway what I want to know is if I haven't found a Job by then (Which I hope I have) what happens after the work programme?

 

Will Jobcentre close my claim? I am worried as I don't want to end up homeless if they close it after the 2 years is up :sad:

 

Any advice would be great cheers :-)

JCP won't close the claim, they are far from finished with you by then, CAP ( community action programme) is a real possibility, this would consist of 6 months full time non voluntary unpaid work, after that it's probably back onto the WP.

 

The government will continue to hound you until

 

a) You get a job.

b) You sign off for another reason, and stay signed off.

c) You come off JSA and onto another benefit ESA, for example.

d) You die
