    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

You do indeed and if they chase you then you write to them or whoever is chasing reminding them they are in breach of your s77-79 request. If they do finally send one someone needs to check if its enforceable. If they send a recon you can ask them if they hold the original.

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

Hi Steve, a word of advice from someone in an identical position.

My PPI was sold through Crystal Windows, via CGU (now Aviva), who were not signed up to the code of conduct as its pre 2005.

 

FOS have had the claim for over 18 months and keep reiterating this in each regular update so I hold little hope of them resolving the issue, ever.

Link bought the debt and equally keep reminding me of my indebtedness to them.

 

Just thought you should be aware, especially if you're considering the FOS route and moreover the fact that Zenith are in administration.

As dx has stated your best option is through the courts.

 

One question for the CAG team. Does the PPI documentation fall within the "any document referred to in it" for the credit agreement itself?

I can prove it wasn't supplied with the executed agreement under section 62 or 63 of CCA 1974

Hello,

 

Thanks for the advice re Zenith I'll see how that one goes...

 

Here is a reply from GE Money regarding the charges and default.

 

I cant see how Link are responsible for complaint against fees as GE Money applied the fees not Link....

 

And if the fees applied are unlawful then the default is incorrect, something they never explained in this letter ie what did they supply to the CFA's.

 

any advice?

oh yes def that guy

they put the default on

they aRE responsible

 

I think you need to question why they think someone that 'inherits' a default are the ones to approach.

GE are ''working'' on the fact that is ''sale'' of the account to Link was an ''absolute assignment'' of ALL the rights, benefits an d obligations of the original account''.

Thanks guys.

 

Just received the credit agreement from LINK (attached), All in order I think.... I will have to begin payments again as they seem to have the paperwork

 

Now do I send LINK the copy letter from GE Money explaining they are responsible for the unlawful charges along with the spreadsheet etc?

 

And the same time letter to GE Money requesting a copy of the default letter sent to me to see if they requested payment of the full amount including charges. I feel GE Money is a waste of time and should just go down the FOS route. What do you think?

I'm dealing with Link who I'm sure wont give it up so easily.

What exactly is wrong with the agreement and how to I approach them with the problem?

I'm sure if I send them the two claims, ppi and charges, they'll just fob me off back to GE money

I would be inclined to write to them and point out that the prescribed terms are missing and as such the account is unenforceable. Then wait and see what they come back with.

Was that all they sent or did they include terms and conditions etc.

 

Stick with the basics for now.

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .
