    • Have we seen your court bundle?   If we haven't then it's probably an idea to post it up here especially the index page and the witness statement so we can see if there is anything which might need adding or changing 
    • "Care to briefly tell someone who isn't tech savvy - i.e. me! - how you did this?" Its pretty simple although not obvious. You open the google maps app > click your profile picture > Click Timeline from the list > click today > choose the date you want to see the timeline from. Then you'll see your timeline for that day. Often, places you have visited will have a question mark beside them where google wants you confirm you have actually visited. You either click 'yes' if you have, or you click 'edit' to enter the actual place you visited. Sometimes, you'll see 'Missing visit' This probably happens if your internet connection has dropped out at that time. You simply click 'Add visit' and enter the place. The internet on my crappy phone often loses connection so I have to do that alot.   OK dx, understood mate. 
    • I have now been given a court date vs Evri, 4th Sept 2024. I have completed my court bundle, when am I expected to send copies to the court and Evri and should it be in hard copy or electronic? The Notice of Allocation states that no later than 7 days before the directions hearing both parties must send to the other party their final offers to settle. Does this mean I will have to tell Evri what I'm willing to settle? Rgds, J
    • Ok how about this to the CEO? I know it sounds super desperate but lets call a spade a spade here, I am super desperate: Dear Sir, On 29th November 2023 I took out a loan of £5000 with you. Unfortunately very early into 2024 I found myself in financial difficulty (unexpected bills and two episodes of sickness and the tax office getting my tax code wrong resulting in less pay for two months) and I contacted you (MCB) on 13th February 2024 asking if there was any way I could extend the length of my loan to 36 months. I fully explained why I was requesting this and asked for your help. I did not receive a reply to that email so I again contacted you on 7th March 2024 to advise you of a change in my circumstances which resulted in me having to take out a DMP and asking you to confirm that the direct debit had been cancelled. You would have also received confirmation of this DMP from StepChange but you did not acknowledge receipt of my email. I have only managed to make one payment from my loan but did try and contact MCB to discuss extending my loan, help etc.  I have now therefore fallen behind on several of my debts, yours included, and as a result you have lodged a Cifas marker against my name for "evasion of payment", which has resulted in me having to change banks, which has been an extremely difficult process because of the Cifas marker. I do not feel you have been fair or given me the opportunity to fully explain my situation to you before you lodged the marker against my name. I appreciate it is a business and you have acted accordingly, but I did try to make contact to arrange alternative arrangements and at no point, not even to this day, did I ever intend to not repay my loan. I cannot stress to you enough how much this has affected my mental health. I am having trouble sleeping and my existing health condition has been exacerbated by all of this. What I would like you to do is to please, please remove the Cifas marker and let me make arrangements to pay the loan back through a DMP.  Please sir, I am begging for your help here. I am not a dishonest person and I have never been in a situation like this before. I am desperately trying to make things right but this marker is killing me. Please can you help me? I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully,

    • 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 from noobie me

 

Looking at charges around 4500 ove rthe 6 years.

 

I have been reading the forum for a few weeks now getting myself all confused, wondering do i or dont i??? I have decided to go ahead.

Final straw has come this week, i got paid on friday, my direct debits not due out until the monday and low and behold i have checked online to find out friday they took my d/d out 3 days earlier and charged me 38.oo for each one even though my wages went in after midnight thursday!!! Sending off my 1st letter tomorrow, hopefully to the right place.(ive settled on Bishopsgate address)

Does anyone know? Do NatWest shut accounts (opened up another account just incase)and also seeing as so many people now after them are they now fighting back

Also as account is in joint names but either can sign would it be ok just to do in my name?

Not sure about the account thing i know that they aren't shutting them down routinely but if you have followed the faqs and step-by-step guide you know you need to open a parachute anyway as any bank can shut your account at any time for any reason.

 

As for fighting back they do usually take it all the way ie you haveing to file a claim with the court but you'll still get your money back. Read round peoples threads on here to get an idea of what they are like.

Just realised

As Natwest took hell of a lot of charges 2001-2002, they tried to help out by arranging a loan which we pay back every month for the next 5 years...got 2 yrs left to pay.Can i do anything about this on claim as its over 1k in interest?

If they hadnt of took all charges i wouldnt of got into the mess i was in

Hi Deller

 

It was only through pure chance i realised reading through the forum ,that going ahead with this, natwest might make me pay back the loan back they offered to clear my overdraft.I went whoaaa..hang on ...the only reason i got the loan was because natwest was taking charges left right and centre, They put me into which is now 3 yrs down the line near POVERTY!!!!!

 

Will let you know if i find anymore info out.

ok...

Sent S.A.R off friday, they received Monday this week, today i arrived home from work to find letter acknowleging my request and receipt of cheque from a Joyce Todor.

I sent my SAR off to London and got reply back from Edinburgh

I suppose the manual intervention part of the letter is standard procedure.

Do i now wait for statements or do i say a week before the 40 days is up ring them to remind them?

 

Any advise will be much appreciated

Hi tracey there is a letter in the library section

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/6986-data-protection-act-non.html

 

Use letter one, as per instructions, you can send it about a week before the 40 days are up. If they have not complied with your SAR by then.

 

I havent heard of Natwest actually not complying before now though so at this stage you will be in luck!

 

Good luck
