    • 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.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

    • 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.

I can raise an objection, which I intend to do..

The claimants has to seek your permission and the courts to vary any of the DJ Directions by way of an application.

 

You must consider how this will impact on your case should you agree or disagree....to agree would allow little if any time for your consideration/response.

 

Should you disagree and refuse permission a simple phone call or email would suffice.

 

Regards

 

Andy

To both and also state that if they fail to meet the time imposed by the DJ then you will also make application to strike out their claim and request sanctions imposed for not compliance of the DJ Directions.....Pursuant to CPR 3.

 

That should give them something to think about:wink:

I ended up ringing H L Solicitors today, i was told the person dealing with the case was on annual leave, i asked to speak to the person was was dealing with the claim in her absence, the young lady took the case number and said, umm well she isn't here, give me your phone number Il get her to ring u. I refused and asked her to pass a message on.

 

so I've emailed, phoned and sent by next day delivery the above letter. I wasn't giving any chance of them saying i hadn't notified them in time.

 

i emailed court, of which i had a response to say the emails are accessed daily, but could take up to 10 days to process.

 

I've also sent witness statement on next day traceable to court and H L solicitors. Guaranteed delivery by 1pm Monday.

 

so will now wait to hear what other excuses they concoct. Be interesting to find out why they waited til 2 days before filing date for witness statement, before they tried to vary the date. Funny that it was 2 days before deadline!! And the solicitor is on leave.

Right here we go again!!

 

Letter from court today, IT IS ORDERED THAT;

 

1. Time for service of the defendants witness statement extended to 4pm 20/12/2013

 

2. This order has been made without a hearing under the courts case management powers contained in the civil procedure rule part 33.

 

You may within 7 days of the service of this order apply to the court to set aside, or to vary the order under part 23, rule 10. You must file with the court, and srvce on other parties, an application that sets out your reasons for objection.

 

when your objection has been received, the original application will be listed for hearing, unless you ask the court to vary the order without a hearing.

 

dated 6 december 2013.

 

I am confused!!, I already objected, phoned, emailed both the court and the solicitors on Friday.

 

Today was the given date for all witness statements to be received. Mine got there..

 

What do I do now.

 

AA.

Ok AA the above is the way the Court like to handle it....ideally you should have submitted an application N244 re your objection....your letter /email has been disregarded but you can now make application to submit your objection.

You have 7 days as stated above to vary the order...there is a fee of £45.

 

It appears the claimant made application irrespective of your response....the question is it really worth it now because the court would probably allow the extension?

 

Regards
