    • I have just read the smaller print on their signs. It says that you can pay at the end of your parking session. given that you have ten minutes grace period the 35 seconds could easily have been taken up with walking back to your car, switching on the engine and then driving out. Even in my younger days when I used to regularly exceed speed limits, I doubt I could have done that in 35 seconds even when I  had a TR5.

    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.

    • 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,

 

I read articles, threads etc. all over the internet about CCA 1974 provisions and that how statutory interest cannot be applied to post judgement debt relating to this act.

 

However,

 

I've just received a settlement figure which has had 8% slapped on it!

 

I've just called the solicitors in question and they informed me that the debt was over £5,000

and and that because it had been through the court system and made final (my understanding of the explanation given),

any CCA 1974 provision was overruled and irrelevant.

 

Please could somebody put me out of my misery and explain what is going on.Many thanks for any assistance.

Hi Borris and welcome to CAG.

 

If the Claimant requested section 69 interest within their Particulars of claim on a claim over 5K then they are entitled to add 8 % up and until judgment.

Hi Andy,

Many thanks for your reply.

 

You say 'up' and 'until', so I'm assuming after judgment this interest cannot be applied.

It's really shocking because I was quoted by solicitors representing Robinson Way & Co Ltd. £21,635.59

which differs somewhat from that on the original Court Charging Order, which is £12,294.03.

 

I believe that it is only the amount shown on the final charging order that must be paid to clear a restriction.

 

Kind regards,Borris

Post judgment interest can apply if it is within the terms and conditions of the credit agreement...but it wouldn't be 8% that is for sec69 only.Its only the amount on the judgment that must be paid to clear the restriction.

So whatever the £9341.56 is....is a figment of their imagination.

If you are claiming for a fixed amount of money, you can also claim interest on the amount outstanding. This is usually referred to as 'section 69 interest'.

 

If both parties are businesses and the debt relates to a commercial transaction, then it may be more appropriate to use the provisions of the Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act. This allows for a higher rate of interest and for additional debt collection charges. Details can be found at http://www.late-payment-law.co.uk. Do not use this, if either you or the claimant is a private individual.

 

To claim section 69 interest you first have to work out the total amount of your claim - excluding interest and court fees. You are entitled to claim interest at 8% per annum on this amount. Work out the 'daily rate' by multiplying 'the amount of your claim' x 0.00022. You also need to count up the number of days from when the money became due up to the date on which you issue the claim. Multiply the daily rate by the number of days to work out the 'interest so far'. Then drop each of these numbers into the following paragraph:

 

The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year, from [date when the money became due] to [date of issue of claim] of £[interest so far] and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of [daily rate].

This paragraph should then be included in your particulars of claim, probably as the last paragraph.

Hi Andy, thanks for getting back to me. So I need to be looking for the original loan agreement terms and conditions at the time, which was 2004 and not in any court documentation?

Yes that does sound scary: "...with any further interest becoming due...", but i read somewhere in this forum I think that this is standard text and is often abused by the creditors. If I cannot get hold of the original agreement/T&C (back in 2004) or the summons particulars, should I request them from Robinson Way & Co? I'm sure they won't have them or want to hand them over. They may also stall for time!I see poor folk get excited when they read variations of the text: statutory interest cannot may be added to debts under £5,000 or that are CCA regulated, only to find that it is possible if it states so in certain documents.

The summons would be vital to check the wording of the cliam..if there is no reference to statutory interest then it can not be added to the claim.

 

Its important though you under the difference here Borris...statuary interest 8% can be added to any claim over 5k Irrespective of the T&Cs or the agreement.Your dilemma would appear to be post judgment interest which whether referred to in the P.o.C or not can be added if its within the t&cs of said agreement...there is a difference.Hence the need to see sight of said agreement.

Thanks again Andy for the assistance. Would the creditor have these documents or should I start by contacting the court for the summons?

The Court should have a copy of the summons assuming you have not retained yours.The T&Cs/Agreement would be with the Creditor (OC) again assuming you have not retained your original.

Okay thanks. The originals are nowhere to be found, which is foolish on my part. I better get on and ask the creditor, which will be fun to say the least. What should I do if the creditor has not go them or refuses to give copies to me? Are there any standard letters in CAG that I could use for this exercise to save a bit of time?Many thanks, Borris

Data Subject Access Request should flush out the T&Cs and statements/data but rarely the agreement..there is afee of £10 and they have 40 days to comply.Because there is a judgment now they may not respond to a section 77 request (CCA) fee £1 but worth a go to see they may respond.

A section 77-79 request should be sent - You need sight of the original t&cs. if they fail to provide said they are precluded from enforcing any interest charges.

Hello Paul,

 

Thanks for further assistance. I'm getting worried now because I'm holding everybody up in the chain. My conveyancer is just doing his job, which is to write to the solicitors of the creditors for final settlement figures in return for an RX4. We have had two figures back. One is under 5k and is fine, the second as you can read has had 8% slapped on it and I want to contest it, but with limited supporting documents and time. The third and final CO is a joke, Shoosmiths acting for Egg Banking plc passed on or sold the debt recently and did not know who had took it on (wasted two weeks). Today we were told it was Barclays, so my conveyancer has written to them. Shoosmiths gave me a settlement figure a year or so ago for a sale that unfortunately fell through. However, the figure matched that stated on the CO, which was fairplay by Shoosmiths, but now I bet Barclays or their solicitors will add 8%. Now these creditors know there's a property being sold, they'll just sit back and wait.

 

I need to ask these two creditors or their solicitors how are they claiming statutory interest, i.e. under the terms of an agreement, terms and conditions or a court summons, am I right in thinking this?
