    • “Not realising it was a no parking zone” doesn’t help you if the timing is correct, as (at least, on Google Maps / View) there is clear signage ('7am to midnight', parked at 15:22) What might be worth pursuing is the "ticket handed to driver" aspect : do you have any view on why they would be  stating that?
    • it's 85k of turnover (well, now £90k). However, you're digging yourself into another hole here. That ship has probably long since sailed. Is it worth pursuing this? You're not going to get anything back from it either way.
    • Hi,   A few pointers from yesterday to take note of evris cpr 27.9 failed again so we should really make issue of this also their WX fail to comply with CPR so again we should take issue with their statement of truth  you cant get tort if you get damages under subsection 7 of CRA because its double recovery  - not sure what we think of this? however its the first time i saw the judges make reference to your non automatic rights from s49 which s54 and 57 assist with. We should start stating this specifically for claims as I think its much better than just 49 and 57 as we need to make it clear where our non automatic rights come from as 54 automatic frankly dont help  I have sent the claim form and defences to the admin email because I can’t upload them for some reason as it wont let me but thought this may help as its the first time we’ve taken tort to trial. although i think the DDJ was honestly struggling to understand some parts of the law because he was asking me about them and how he should interpret them, especially for the automatic. Will apply for transcript if you want it?
    • I decided on confrontation - which I hate.  Omg the arrogance of the driver.  They refused to say who had given them the alleged permission to park on the private land - unless I proved ownership.  I couldn't believe they could be so objectionable.   They advised they couldn't take public transport to work as they lived too far away.  They couldn't rent a local garage as none were available. I simply said that's their issue not mine. It was infuriating that this person had such misplaced entitlement.  However I decided to humour them and show them the title deeds.   They couldn't respond.  Although at this point they alleged some guy in a city up north - whose name they couldn't remember - gave permission!!    They then asked if they could buy the garages and land!! Yet can't afford to park on a meter !! They seemed to back down and agree to now park elsewhere.  I hope so.

    • 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.

Thanks everybody,

 

I would just like to say i will be watching all of your threads, and getting ready to pass on my congratulations to all of you.

 

And Caro i have to admit if those toilets had of been in view, i would have visited, but to my surprise their agent was very unprepared. He was certainly not worth worrying about.

 

Good luck all of you but you wont be needing it.

 

ps We will be back very shortly with twoofus 2 v YB (husbands claim)

YB seem to have a habit of appointing some random local solicitor, providing no info for them to work with. I think this is just so they have someone apparently present, with an offer to make on the court steps, and absolutely no intention of attending in court. It's a quite outrageous abuse of the court system and waste of taxpayers money..

You are most certainly right Caro,

 

Their agent did not have a clue.

 

He asked me if i had a copy of page 2 of recent fax sent to Ms Ross for him to see, as he only had page 1. to which you know the response i gave.

 

And also told me he hadnt been supplied with a copy of my bundle i had sent, nor did he have their court bundle.

 

And when he alleged i owed YB money, I only replied saying i hope you can prove that to the judge, as you dont have any documents. He told me he didnt have to, what a load of rubbish that had just spilled out of his mouth.

 

Caro would he have been a solicitor:?: because if he was i seemed to know more than him, and thats all thanks to this site.;)

Hi everyone, just wanted you all to know that yb have settled our claim this morning, we've been through the whole process, the case was sent to our local court last friday and out of the blue a cheque arrived today for full and final settlement as they say in their covering letter' the cost of defending this case will shortly become disproportionate to the sums in the dispute' so in a nutshell we have won!!! So to everyone out there who may be getting the jitters, stick with it, remember that all you are asking for is your money back. A huge thank you to everyone on this site and money saving expert for all help and support. the hay lady

Hi all,

 

Well, we are very nearly at a week since the court date and the Judges Tomlin order and we have not received a cheque yet. It clearly stated that we had to have cleared funds within 14 days and if we don't get a cheque by morning I don't think they'll clear within the 14 days.

 

Looks like we could be going back to see the Judge for an enforcement order. Lets see what the morning brings.

 

Don't mess YB, the wife is gunning for you again and she's gonna make you pay if you mess her about anymore :mad:

I believe that with a Tomlin Order the money gets paid into the court and they pay you. I might be wrong, but I have heard of this happening.
