    • Hi T911 and welcome to CAG. As you say, an interesting screw up. So much for quality control! Anyway, our regular advice is to ignore all of their increasingly threatening missives... UNLESS you get a letter of claim, then come back here and we'll help you write a "snotty letter" to help them decide whether to take it any further with their stoopid pics. If you get mail you're unsure of, just upload it for the team to have a look.
    • Thanks @lolerzthat's an extremely helpful post. There is no mention of a permit scheme in the lease and likewise, no variation was made to bring this system in. I recall seeing something like a quiet enjoyment clause, but will need to re-read it and confirm. VERY interesting point on the 1987 Act. There hasn't been an AGM in years and I've tried to get one to start to no avail. However, I'll aim to find out more about how the PPC was brought in and revert. Can I test with you and others on the logic of not parking for a few months? I'm ready to fight OPS, so if they go nuclear on me then surely it doesn't matter? I assume that I will keep getting PCNs as long as I live here, so it doesn't make sense for me to change the way that I park?  Unless... You are suggesting that having 5 or so outstanding PCNs, will negatively affect any court case e.g. through bad optics? Or are we trying to force their hand to go to court with only 2 outstanding PCNs?
    • That is so very tempting.   They are doing my annual review as we speak and I'm waiting for their response once I have it I will consider my next steps.    The debt camel website mentioned above is amzing and helping to. Education me alot    
    • Sending you a big hug. I’m sorry your going through this. The letters they send sound aweful, and the waiting game for them to stop. But these guys seem so knowledgable and these letters should stop. Hang in there, and keep in touch. Don’t feel alone 
    • In my time I've never seen a payout/commission from a PPC to a landlord/MA. Normally the installation of all the cameras/payment of warden patrols etc is free but PPCs keep 100% of the ticket revenue. Not saying it doesn't happen mind. I've done some more digging on this: Remember, what your lease doesn't say is just as important as what it does say. If your lease doesn't mention a parking scheme/employment of a PPC/Paying PCNs etc you're under no legal obligation to play along to the PPC's or the MA's "Terms and conditions". I highly doubt your lease had a variation in place to bring in this permit system. Your lease will likely have a "quiet enjoyment" clause for your demised space and the common areas and having to fight a PPC/MA just to park would breach that. Your lease has supremacy of contract, but I do agree it's worth keeping cool and not parking there (and hence getting PCNs) for a couple months just so that the PPC doesn't get blinded by greed and go nuclear on you if you have 4 or 5 PCNs outstanding. At your next AGM, bring it up that the parking controls need to be removed and mention the legal reasons why. One reason is that under S37(5b) Landlord and Tenant Act 1987,  more than 75% of leaseholders and/or the landlord would have needed to agree, and less than 10% opposed, for the variation to take place. I highly doubt a ballot even happened before the PPC was bought in so OPS even being there is unlawful, breaching the terms of your lease. In this legal sense,  the communal vote of the "directors" of the freehold company would have counted for ONE vote of however many flats there are (leases/tenants) + 1 (landlord). It's going to be interesting to see where this goes.

    • 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.

**UPDATE**

 

Made arrangements to pay £80 per month under a Tomlin Order.

 

Not the best outcome, but I figured I can afford that, and my defence, though was solid enough IMO, may not have been successful. At least this way I'm avoiding the CCJ and paying less in the long run than if I was unfortunate enough to get hit with interest/costs etc..

 

Thanks to all involved! :-D

Providing you are happy with the outcome Jimmy...and you have avoided a potential CCJ and further costs...I would regard that as a satisfactory outcome.

 

Well done ..thread title amended to reflect the outcome.

Nice outcome but £80.00 a month is a lot

 

What happens if you lose your job, sick etc as with a Tomlin order you are admitting the debt. They can go straight for a CCJ judgement if you default on payments

 

I have a Tomlin Order myself and pay £1.00 per week due to me being on disability benefits

 

I am not criticizing as you made the decision on what is best for you and your circumstances at the time to avoid a CCJ like i did

 

The only advice i will give is try and put a bit of money away each month just in-case an unexpected event in your life happens

 

I am glad it all worked out though

No your not.... you agreeing to a settlement to avoid further litigation.....

 

Again not necessarily...depends on the terms of the schedule and if the claimant has drafted that as a term.

This is my Tomlin Order for comparison

 

 

 

i) The Defendant shall pay to the Claimant the sum of £xxxxxx in full and final settlement.

 

ii) The amount stated in Paragraph (i) of this Order will be paid to the

Claimant by the Defendant by way of consecutive weekly instalments of £1.00. The first installment will be paid by xx xxxx 2015.

 

Should the Defendant default either as to the time or value of payments, the Claimant will send a letter to the Defendant requiring him to pay the arrears within seven days, failing which the Claimant will be at liberty to request Judgment against the Defendant for the sum claimed together with their costs incurred, less any payments made.

you need to findout the date welcome closed/sold the account

or more importantly when they stopped charging their interest

and set the claim to date to that.

Next attempt. Nothing further was added to account after Jan 2011.

 

I should also mention that the Tomlin Order is actually for the balance of £3300.45. Less the initial £2785.93 from the statements I got (when the interest stopped)

- that means they added £514.52 when they tried to file the CCJ..

 

 

. Should we take that into account also?

(It's now been 12 months and I've paid £960 off so far. So anything would be ideal)

 

More accurately:

Statement balance ended on £2,785.93

- 02/01/2011 LBA advised balance £2,830.45

- 18/04/2013 - £44.52 had been added.

 

 

Claim form advised £2,830.45 (as of 29/4/10, plus interest under s69 @ 8% per year = £684.89) = £3,515.34. Arses, aren't they?

"UPON the parties having reached a settlement in relation to this matter.

 

BY CONSENT and upon the terms of the settlement set out in the schedule attached to this order.

 

It is ordered that

 

1. All further proceedings in this action be stayed upon the terms set out in the Schedule attached to this order, save that the parties be at liberty to bring such terms into effect;

 

2. The Defendant to pay the cost of £50.00 being the cost of the application.

 

SCHEDULE

 

1. The Defendant do pay the Claimant the sum of £3300.45 in full and final settlement of the Claimant’s claim by way of monthly instalments.

 

2. Monthly instalments of £80.00 to be made on or before the 1st of every month. The first payment to be made on or before 4pm on the 1 AUGUST 2015. Payments to be made until such time that the balance has been cleared.

 

3. If the Defendant does default on any of the payments detailed in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, the Claimant shall be entitled to apply to lift the stay and request Judgment for the debt balance of £3300.45, less any amount paid in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Order. The Defendant to pay the costs of any application made in accordance of paragraph 3.

 

4. Upon payment of the said sum of £3300.45, the Claimant agrees that the Defendant is released from its debt owing to the Claimant."

 

As long as I'm making the agreed payments on time each month, surely I can poke them?

Back again!

 

In a bit of a bind as didn't really have long left on this until it was settled.

 

Early November I received a letter from Welcome advising that the PPI payment I'd received wasn't enough (the usual about it not putting my account into a position had I never taken PPI). I sent back the response and they credited £550.31 into my bank.

 

While this was going on I (either stupidly or brazenly) withheld payments under the Tomlin order, thinking that IND perhaps were aware of this.

They (more than likely) weren't.

 

Middle of last week I find a Judgment for Claimant (acceptance) for the remaining £850.45.

 

Just wondering what options I have here.

Do I have any recourse considering that the amount they are chasing may still be based (to a degree) on that amount that Welcome have since refunded back to me?

Can I write to the court to advise that there was no acceptance and I didn't advise any amount?

 

At some point I will be going back after them for all the stupid unlawful charges they threw at the account

- that's the reason why I've paid virtually 3 times over the original amount loaned to me.

I just wanted this out of the way before I went back at them, now this

- which granted, is my own fault for not continuing the payments.

 

As always, any help/advice would be appreciated! :smile:

Never stop payments on a Tomlin Order.....does the judgment state a pay by date ?

 

Hope you didnt spend all the refund and put it away for this rainy day ?
