    • Thank you. You contacted directly with the parcel broker so your best option is to proceed directly against them for breach of contract. I hope you have read enough to understand that you will not be able to rely on the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Do you understand why? Have Parcel to Go giving you a reason for declining reimbursement? Do you have anything in writing from your customer which shows that they did not refuse delivery and which identifies the actual circumstances of the situation?

    • 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 there,

 

I'm in need of some urgent help with regards to a defence on a CCJ claim.

 

The background of the story is that I was living abroad for a few years and upon returning found a CCJ on my credit file. Upon further investigation it came clear where this came from. It was done through someone who I lived with for only 3 weeks and they did it through money claim online. They claimed £3.4k and that I'd lived with them for 5 months despite never signing any tenancy (which I would have had to do if I wanted to move into this place) etc etc. They claimed bills, rent etc.

 

Anyway, after some advice on here, I submitted form N244 to get the judgment set aside on the following reasons:

 

1. I was not able to enter a defence due to not being in the country

2. Based on the evidence I supplied - tenancy agreement stating I was living elsewhere during her claimed timeframe, also an email from her where stating that I could live in the flat with her for a trial period (etc etc).

 

Anyway, I've received 2 court letters this past week:

 

1. "General Form of Judgement or Order" - States that it is ordered that... The defendant shall by 21/2/13 file at court and serve on the claimant a draft of his defence....

 

2. "Notice of Hearing" - states the time and place and when I should attend.

 

My problem is that the hearing is on 28th Feb, and I work and live in London during the week. I've asked my boss for the time off and he can't give it.

 

Can you advise on what my next steps are? I submitted all my evidence with my forms N244. I don't believe the claimant will show as it's the other end of the country for them to attend.

 

Any help would be really helpful.

First step would be to make application to get the claim transferred to your local County Court...then submit your defence as per the General Form of Judgment/Order.

Hi andy

 

This is at my local court - but I can't attend the hearing date they have given. I don't have any extra evidence as I've submitted it all with my n244. Could I write to them explains that I am unable to attend and have disclosed all my evidence?

I would advocate that you attend if possible as defendant otherwise the Claimant will gain the upper hand.

 

By transfer I mean to London where you live and work during the week.It is possible to conduct the claim in your abcence providing you make the Court aware of your difficulties to attend....but as the saying goes if your not there to watch your corner then decisions could be made that may not be in your interest.

I'm hoping that someone can now help me as to where to go with this? After submitting my n244 with reasons for the ccj to be set aside and providing evidence with it I've now been informed by the court that I failed to provide evidence? How can this be when I have already submitted all my evidence with my form n244. This means that the judge has rejected this to be set aside on the basis that I fails to provide evidence dated from there letter to me with the hearing. I explained that I had provided all evidence with my form n244.

 

What are my options now? Please can someone advise as to what I can do? I just don't want to give in when this is totally unfair :(

did you also send a copy draft defence to the claimant by that date as ordered?

did you request an adjournment/transfer? unless adjourned/transferred with new date, can go ahead in absence, j to take into account. seems like then j decided in consideration of what was before it no set aside. unless perhaps there was an admin error on their part and j didn't get some info etc? what exactly was the formal notification decision sent to you?

give andy a shout?

The court just stated that it was a no to set aside based on that I did not supply evidence by the given date. This is what doesn't make sense to me as all my evidence was supplied with form N244 and also I sent in evidence again before the date they gave.

 

What should be my next steps here on? I ask in that my evidence is very clear and should put this CCJ to bed, that's what is so frustrating. I have a case and a clear one at that. :(

but did you also send a draft defence to the claimant by the date as ordered? always comply with court orders.

also, you didn't attend or request adjournment/transfer as advised. seems not much can do unless anyone else has any suggestions?

Hi,

 

It didn't state that I had to submit a draft defence to the claimant? Only submit my defence to the court? I don't have the claimants details other than her name.

 

I didn't attend but wrote a letter in advising my reasons for not being able to attend. I didn't ask for a adjournment as I didn't feel the need on the basis that my evidence submitted was satisfactory.

Thanks - I know this but I only had the persons name and no address? It was impossible for me to serve on the claimant my defence? I was in Australia when this was originally served to me and received no documents to my home address.

you became aware of the order prior to the dates on it? am sure a quick call to the court could've established the claimants address? otherwise should've been explained on form, or prior.

failure to comply with a court order generally goes against. maybe the j took that into account in decision.

can only suggest atm, contact court and double check that all your 'evidence'/draft defence etc was received and so was before the J in his decision. take it from there.

but you were aware of the order in time prior to the deadline/hearing on it.

anyway, yes see what the court says.
