    • In my experience (not with car payments) but with many other things, my partner has been ill and signed off in the past and we have been unable to meet various commitments.  Naturally if you ring the call centre they are going to fob you off and tell you you must pay, that's why that never ever works. I would obtain a note from her GP listing all her health issues plus medications plus side effects, then write to the finance company with a copy of it, explaining the situation, as you have here, asking for a payment holiday. Perhaps mention that the car is very much needed for hospital appointments etc. It's likely the finance company would rather you pay till term end than, chase you for money they will never see, and sell the car at auction for a loss,  You can search some of my threads going back years, advising people to do this for Council Tax, Tax Credits, HMRC, Even a solicitors company and it always works, because contrary to popular belief people are reasonable.
    • Sorry, I haven't ever seen one of these agreements. Read it all and look out for anything that says when she can withdraw and when she is committed to go ahead. If it isn't clear she may need to call the housing provider and simply say what you posted here, she doesn't want to go ahead and how does she withdraw her swap application?
    • Thank you! Your head is like a power bank of knowledge.  Her health issues are short term, due to a relationship breakdown she took it pretty hard and has been signed off work on medication for 3 months. She only started her job in February 24 so does not qualify for any occupational sick benefits, which is where the ssp only comes in. (You will see me posting a few things over the coming days, whilst I try and sort some things for her)  I sat with her last night relaying all this back and she does want to work out a plan, she was ready to propose £100 for the next 3 months and then an additional £70 per month onto of her contractual to "catch up" but Money247 rejecting the payment holiday and demanding £200 thew her, which is why I came on here.   
    • I've looked at your case specifically more.   Term 8bii reads " when, in accordance with instructions from the Customer or the Consignee, the Consignment is left in a safe place" Their terms choose to not define safe, so they are put to proof that the location is safe. If your property opens onto a street its a simple thing of putting a google earth image and pointing out that its not a safe place

    • 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 DB.Hope you're well.In reply to a question you asked before.I have checked my credit file at Experian.There is nothing on it regarding EE(T Mobile).However, there is an entry for Sigma Red on the date EE mentioned when I phoned them. Are Sigma Red and Sigma/SPV1 one and the same?Whether they are or not, I have NEVER had a mobile contract as I have always been PAYG, and never with T Mobile.My defence is in, and showing as received.I will let you know what happens.RegardsSignaller

ps: just a thought, but if they are one and the same, then the alleged debt cannot have been assigned from EE (T Mobile).Or can it?Perhaps I'm running away with this.

In which case I suggest a letter to them now, denying the debt completely, and warning that YOU will take court action if they fail to remove this defamatory recording of a false debt within seven days. Go for the feckers.

Send to Sigma – all the same people anyway.

Sorry, having another 'thick' moment.Must be these 12 hour shifts.My credit record is showing an account with 'Sigma Red', opened in Jan 2009.Not EE( T Mobile).When I spoke with EE they said I opened an account on the same day in Jan 2009.Are Sigma Red and EE (T Mobile) one and the same?EE said I opend an account with them (T Mobile) but my credit record says I opened an account with Sigma Red.As clear as mud eh!Signaller

ps: why not register and offer an opinion @ 'Guest'?

I understand that, but my credit report says I opened an account with Sigma Red on 13/01/09.When I phoned EE they said an account was opened for T mobile on 13/01/09.There is no mention of EE/T Mobile on my credit record.To save anyone going back through the thread, I do not now have,nor have I ever had, any business/dealings with EE/T Mobile ever.Signaller

Is it worth me writing to Sigma/HL, or shall I just let the process take its course?Signaller

 

What would it achieve Sig? Most definitely raise it further in the process...unlawful Data processing.......dont forget that may be the assignment date which would therefore replace EE/TM as the creditor.

 

Regards

Andy, thanks,as usual, for replying.My credit report says account opened with Sigma Red on that date, but EE said an account was opened on that date too, with T Mobile.In the Poc'S it states that the account was assigned to Sigma Spv1 in August 2012.

Anyway, got home today and theres a letter from HMCTS, confirming a copy of defence to be sent to Claimant, and if they don't respond in 28 days it will be 'stayed'.

Morning all, hope everyone is well.Have logged on to MCOL and message says my defence was received on 26/02/13.Regarding the letter I received on 1st March: it states 'if the Claimant does not respond in 28 days, the Claim would be stayed'.Is it 28 calendar days or working days?If it's calendar days then is it automatically stayed.Is that '28' day timeline set in stone, and what can I expect now?Thank You for looking in.RegardsSignaller

Have spoken with MCOL this afternoon, who have confirmed that Claimant has not responded within the time required, and the case is now 'Stayed'.Is it better just to let sleeping dogs lie for now?RegardsSignaller
