    • Hi I received a Parking Charge letter to keeper on Monday 15/04/24, the 17th day after the alleged incident. My understanding is that this is outside the window for notifying. The issue date was 08/04/2024 which should have been in good time for it to have arrived within the notice period but in fact it actually arrived at lunchtime on the 15th. Do I have to prove when it arrived  (and if so how can I do that?) or is the onus on them to prove it was delivered in time? All I can find is that delivery is assumed to be on the second working day after issue which would have been Weds 10//04/24 but it was actually delivered 5 days later than that (thank you Royal Mail!). My husband was present when it arrived - is a family member witness considered sufficient proof? 1 Date of the infringement  arr 28/03/24 21:00, dep 29/03/24 01.27 2 Date on the NTK  08/04/2024 (Date of Issue) 3 Date received Monday 15/04/24 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012?  Yes 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No    Have you had a response?  n/a 7 Who is the parking company? GroupNexus 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Petrol Station Roadchef Tibshelf South DE55 5T 'operating in accordance with the BPA's Code of Practice'  
    • lookinforinfo - many thanks for your reply. It would be very interesting to get the letter of discontinuance. The court receptionist said that the county court was in Gloucester 'today' so that makes me think that some days it is in Gloucester and some days its in Cheltenham, it was maybe changed by the courts and i was never informed, who knows if DCBL were or not. My costs were a gallon of petrol and £3.40 for parking. I certainly don't want to end up in court again that's for sure but never say never lol. Its utterly disgusting the way these crooks can legally treat motorists but that's the uk for you. I'm originally from Scotland so it's good that they are not enforceable there but they certainly still try to get money out of you. I have to admit i have lost count of the pcn's i have received in the last 2 yr and 4 months since coming to England for work, most of them stop bothering you on their own eventually, it was just this one that they took it all the way. Like i mentioned in my WS the the likes of Aldi and other companies can get them cancelled but Mcdonalds refused to help me despite me being a very good customer.   brassednecked - many thanks   honeybee - many thanks   nicky boy - many thanks    
    • Huh? This is nothing about paying just for what I use - I currently prefer the averaged monthly payment - else i wouldn't be in credit month after month - which I am comfortable with - else I wold simply request a part refund - which I  would have done if they hadn't reduced my monthly dd after the complaint I raised (handled slowly and rather badly) highlighted the errors in their systems (one of which they do seem to have fixed) Are you not aware DD is always potentially variable? ah well, look it up - but my deal is a supposed to average the payments over a year, and i dont expect them to change payments (up or down) without my informed agreement ESPECIALLY when I'm in credit over winter.   You are happy with your smart meter - jolly for you I dont want one, dont have to have one  - so wont   I have a box that tells me my electricity usage - was free donkeys years ago and shows me everything I need to know just like a smart meter but doesnt need a smart meter,  and i can manually set my charges - so as a side effect - would show me if the charges from the supplier were mismatched. Doesn't tell me if the meters actually calibrated correctly - but neither does your smart meter. That all relies on a label and the competence of the testers - and the competence of any remote fiddling with the settings. You seem happy with that - thats fine. I'm not.    
    • Evening all,   So today, I was sent an updated offer that includes the £12.60 I spent on letters, but they have declined to add the interest at £7.40. They have stating 'We acknowledge your request to claim interest to date, however, this would be at the discretion of a trial judge if the claim did proceed to a trial hearing.' I think I am content with this outcome, and pushing this to a trial for a total interest of £15.30 throughout the claim does not make sense to me.   What are people's thoughts? I am sure our courts have better things to concentrate on?

    • 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

Recieved a letter from HMRC last Saturday saying that my tax credit claim for 2011/2012 was under review..Basically i've been extremely foolish and very sorry for what i've done..My husband left me in May 2010 for approx 4-6 months he was having an affair..So i claimed as a single parent which i was,but we never changed bank accounts,mortgage and all his mail was still being sent to my address..The affair didn't last long and to cut a long story short he moved back in with me.. A few months before my husband left me i had a nervous breakdown and i'm still on medication for it now..I know i should have let HMRC that my husband had moved back in but i was so frightened that the money worries we had would make me have another breakdown..I'm so frightened of what will happen next i've phoned the number on the letter for 2 days and spoken to numerous people who said they would make a note on my file that i've rung them..I've written them a letter to tell them why i've done this, how sorry i am, and willing to pay every penny back to them..So frightened of what will happen next can anybody help me i'm in a desperate situation...Thanks

Hello there, welcome to CAG.

 

The most likely outcome is that HMRC will want their overpayment back. They should allow you to do this by paying it back in instalments. Given what you've said I would imagine it's highly unlikely that they will look to prosecute.

 

You can find a little more general info here:

Hi nothing will happen to you, i know because i had an incident back in Feb , which made me very ill with worry, dont worry and i mean that , you will have to pay any over

payment, and they will set up a payment plan.

You tell them what you can afford every month, no interest is charged, you wont go to court or prison, so please stop worrying and get on with things as well as you can.

Try not to worry, i know it is hard, but like people have said, you will not end up in court, my letters took ages to sort, from when i got the letter in jan , i did not start paying back until august,

sit tight and you will get everything sorted.

take care

no they stopped my payments , it took ages for different departments to get back to me, i have an old thread on here about tax credits did not believe that my daughters dad was living elsewhere and he was in london, but only renting a room, had no tenancy agreement etc, so ended up paying an overpayment back, i had to send in bank statements on all accounts , car documents, utility bills,

etc.

i wish i had appealed against it but this made me so ill, i just wanted it sorted. i paid a lump sum back and the rest in instalments.

have you sent anything in yet.

Just do not worry as it really is not worth it , easier said than done i know. folle x

sounds like your case was a bit different, they only stop it when they have asked for statements etc, and looked into things.

hope you get it all sorted soon. i know where you are coming from and this forum is brilliant for advice , helped me no end.

they may not stop your payments, by reading alot of threads alot of them are partners that have parted but still have financial ties etc, i am sure you will be fine, for you it might just be a routine check x

hi i have replied to one thread, stop worrying , i know it is hard and i went through what you are going through this time last year and believe me it is not worth it,

when you receive your letters, just gather all your information and send it in , i dealt with an awful lady who i complained about, but reading some threads most people are fine.

HMRC will not prosecute you, tax credits etc , are not tough , all they want is their money back.

So please stop worrying, i dont know if you have read my thread from a year ago but you should, what i went through was not worth any of it.

I was in your position and you will get through it,.

Folle xx
