      Lost items sent through Parcel2Go and EVRi

      By Madmart58 · Posted

      Thank you very much for your letter in regard to the above mentioned shipment.  Due to the high volume of parcels coursing through the courier network each day, undergoing continuous processing and handling, certain packages may experience delays or even can get lost in the course of this journey. Please note that due to the time that has passed, this shipment has been declared as lost.  I have today processed the claim and made offers to the value of £75 as a goodwill gesture without prejudice. I do acknowledge that you have mentioned in your letter that the value was higher, however, you did not take out any protection to that amount. The protection for this shipment was £20 and we will not be increasing our goodwill offer any further.    Please log into your account online in order to accept our offer. Once accepted, our accounts department will process the claim accordingly. The claim payment will be processed and received within 7 working days.                                  In addition, a refund of the carriage fee will be processed as a separate payment and will be received within 3 working days.  If I can further assist, please feel free to contact me.   I have also just noticed that yesterday afternoon they sent me an email stating that "after my request" they have refunded the cost of shipping. I did not request the refund so will mention that in my letter as well.

      IDRWW letter and email received this week

      By Angryman1404 · Posted

      Hi I had to leave Dubai back in 2011, during the financial crisis. And only now have I received a letter from IDRWW. Is this anything to worry about about as I have 2 years left until it’s been 15 years(statute barred in Dubai). Worried as just got a mortgage 2 years ago. Could they force me in to bankruptcy? Red lots of different threads on here. And unsure what true and what isn’t.

      Not that TOR will see this now he's thrown in the hand grenade. Rayner has plenty of female supporters on X, for a start. As for the council and HMRC, fair enough and I thought Rayner was already in touch with them.

      Lowell/Overdales Claimform - old Cap1 Debt

      By London1971 · Posted

      Often with the Likes of Lowells/ Overdales that 'proof' doesn't stand up to scrutiny.   Think about it like a game of poker, they want to intimidate you into folding and giving up as soon as possible, and just get you to pay up and roll over, that is their business model, make you think your cards are rubbish. What they don't expect, and their business isn't set up for it, is for a defendant to find this place and to learn that they have an amazing set of cards to play. Overdales don't have an infinite number of lawyers, paralegals etc, and the time / money to spend on expensive court cases, that they are highly likely to lose, hence how hard they will try to get you to roll over.  Even to the extent of faking documents, which they need to do because the debts that they purchased were so cheap, in the first place. Nevertheless it works in most cases, most people chicken out, when they are so close to winning, and a holding defence is like slowly showing Overdales your first card, and a marker of intention that this could get tricky for them. In fact it may be,  although by no means guaranteed that it won't even go any further than that.  Even if it does, what they send you back will almost certainly have more holes than Swiss Cheese, and if with the help you receive here, you can identify those weaknesses and get the whole thing tossed in the bin.

    • 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.

Aggravation and stress are difficult to quantify as loss but credit worthiness could be considered if loss has been suffered and can be proven.

I have applied to the courts to have judgement set asidelink3.gif and wondered how long it takes to hear back from the courts?

Or should I call the courts and see what they say?

 

Thanks for any answers.

Hi all,

 

I have been given a date of 31st May for the court hearing and would just like to ask one question. I have read on this site that I should give Orange an opportunity to set aside with their consent, should I still give them the opportunity even though I have applied to the court?

 

Thank you

Had the CCJ set aside yesterday as Oranges solicitors did not turn up for the hearing. They sent a letter stating they would not be attending and they consented to have the CCJ set aside.

 

I have to file a defence now and although I know what true figure I am claiming, the balance of the total money paid minus the money I agreed I owed, plus postage etc, can I claim for time spent bringing this to an end? Emails, letters, my father travelling down to Colchester to act for me as he has done throughout this case, attend in court?

 

Thank you for any advice.

I don't know all the rules regarding applying for costs in this situation. The litigant in person rate is £18 per hour and then all your costs on top.

 

Work out all of your costs that you feel are reasonable and then compare this with the amount that is owed to Orange. Perhaps in this situation, it may be worth trying to negotiate for Orange to withdraw their claim, with some form of settlement to save wasting the courts valuable time.

 

If I were in this position, I think I would try to seek a negotiation with Orange to avoid the hassle of going to court and not being sure of the outcome. You could end up with a CCJ and no reimbursement of costs. Now the CCJ has been set aside for the minute, Orange may be willing to resolve this with you and withdraw their claim.

 

I think this thread is now more suited to CAG legal issues folder and will alert the site team.

We could do with some help from you.

Cost in a case like this can be asked for at the discretion of the judge who will decide what is fair and reasonable, so work out your figures on actual costs and if you are seeking damages because of detrimental effects on your credit profile personally I would ask the judge to decide.

Hello, orange and aplins do not seem bothered to answer my emails asking what their intentions are. Shall I file a defence against them as I want the ccj removed and not just set aside? Your advice would be welcomed.

 

Thank you

Yes you must enter defence.

Also for a 'litigant in person' you can claim £18 per hour for time expended.

Tried calling Aplins again this morning before I posted the defence and counterclaim off, yes I know I am too soft, and actually got through only to be told that I need to call an 0844 number which is DLC's number? Hello Aplins and Orange can't be bothered to answer my emails and then you get put back with dlc although its Aplins on the original summons? Oh well the form has been sent now even though I only claimed for £5.95 special delivery and its gone up to £6.22!!

 

Once again thank you for your help to date and more than likely in the future.

Had an email from a different guy at orange saying the ccj had been taken off and no compensation would be given as the guy before had given compensation? Errr... no the other guy offered the 50% second payment back because of "the time I had tried to get a final figure to pay", that is not compensation that's an admittance of guilt.

 

At the moment I am £51 out of pocket and £31.20 for the defence and counterclaim. I have replied stating I want the ccj removed an we can discuss figures later........any input folks?
