      MCOL help not being paid for job

      No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?

      LC Asset/Link/Kearns Claim Form #1 - Halifax CC

      By Badtimes123 · Posted

      Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance

      HFC Marbles credit card SD - was dismissed as voluntary joint charge provided - now owed by Cabot - settled at home sale - was i overcharged?

      By tedney · Posted

      I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would be appreciated.

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

Hoping im right in saying, you won an appeal to the tribune , you were placed in wrag, you asked for a reconsideration of wrag.

 

Dont know if they are able to change a tribunal decision, unless an appeal to the Upper Tier on a point of law is successful.

 

Is DWP computer system expecting a 'fit' note, no fit note no payment.

Yes if you win at Tribunal you can only challenge the decision by going to upper tribunal on a point of law.

 

Though you can ask the DWP to reassess you based on a worsening condition, as the Tribunal can only look at your condition on the day of your WCA decision.

Sorry for not replying but for some reason i did not get the emails. I finally got my payment sorted. Seems two different IT systems in use.

As for my appeal,well i was given 15 points but not placed in a group. The dwp placed me in wrag. I asked them to reconsider and apparently that is still in the system. I get conflicting information

Im pretty sure that to get to be put into support group, youll need to satisfy any of the descriptors that are for support group. I cant say which ones they are, youll have to look at the tribunal report to see what they say on what you scored points on. Sorry i cant say more

Thanks. I believe i did but it is open to interpretation. I got 9 points on that descriptor which said majority of the time. That is why i am asking them to look at it again. It has been a total farce. My claim had to be rebuilt so i went 8 weeks having to make repeated calls to get my money and told lies and more lies with the odd person who helped. I am lucky because i have family i can lean on but you can understand why people cause trouble at the jc+ when you were due on Tuesday and you get to Friday with no money or prospect of it.

You need to satisfy one of these descriptors to get into the support group. If you are challenging a Tribunal decision, you need to get a statement of reasons and show they made an error of law.

You need to score 15 on that to be in the support group.

 

Well, the SG descriptors don't work on the basis of points, though. If you satisfy one of them, you will be placed in the SG. You need to prove LCWRA, as opposed to LCW.

Yes I understand that - I was pointing out that the support group descriptor is the same as the 15 point descriptor. If he hasn't scored on the 15 point descriptor then he won't meet the support group descriptor.

For IB it was. It's 15 whether you have a mental or physical health condition.

 

Correct - you need 15 in either case. Or, of course, a combination of physical and mental health issues that scores 15 points would also be fine.
