    • Hi I was caught shoplifting 4 items £20 worth, I’m petrified the Police will come to my house now please can you help. What can I do I worried about my job. 
    • I heard nothing more from J&P but have now had an email from the bank saying they have instructed IDR to act on their behalf?  so are they just passing it back? Selling it on again? I don’t know if this is a good or bad thing 
    • I posted a couple of years ago about our debt situation and have been trying to pay off our debt as best we can. It is a possibility I maybe made redundant in a few months time, so I am trying to find out everything I can about what happens in today’s world when you can’t pay. I keep finding conflicting advice on various sites so I wanted to post this quote to get thoughts. It claims basically that the dca will likely get enforceable documents these days and therefore it’s likely you will have to pay dca at some point during the 6 year process.    on here I read a lot of comments assuming the exact opposite of this. A lot of the threads on here state the beginning of the process but I never see conclusive stuff about what happened from start to finish to get insight into whether debts post 2015 have been enforced etc. I hear a lot here not to pay dca companies but most my debts are post 2015 debts I am all up to date on our debts but if I lose my job it is likely I’ll end up where I tried to avoid in the first place. Which is destroying our files and dealing with DCA. I’ll post it below so you can see what I mean.   It is likely that any debts incurred after 2007 will end up with all the documentation being provided and being enforceable. Therefore you should use the time while awaiting responses going through your Income & Expenditure and considering any possiblity of making a full and final settlement. It can take a number of months to reach the stage of a hearing date and exchange of witness statements and normally you would be able to settle or come to an arrangement to pay before the court hearing, once documents have been provided, although this isn’t guaranteed.
    • depends who said sols state their client is. IDRWW vis~IDR(worldWide) are a debt collector regulated & registered in the UK & USA    they are not solicitors. they use various 'for hire' - here use our letterhead paper tiger solicitors. its just a case of who's stupid enough to join their folly. IDR law used to be their fav but they lost do much money, they broke ties after almost being struck off and now do Will/Probate disputes only. IDR Legal are their sols wing. moriarty law Judge and priestly Taheel - a foreign DCA that use absolutely any trick in the book to extort money even pretending to be any of the above inc being the bank themselves in phone calls.

    • 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 need to be doing either one or the other

 

If you have missed the three months less one day deadline for an ET claim, then your only option will be a civil claim

 

Any claim in the civil court will be for a quantifiable loss for breach of contract as wrongful dismissal comes under law of contract.

 

MAY I ASK WHY "WRONGFUL DISMISSAL"

Its what your contract states

 

Not working your notice is fine by agreement, they pay you four weeks PILON

 

Pay in Lieu of Notice to end the contract

 

Do you have a copy of your contract??

Think I have found it - but need to have a rest because of my back injury. Basically the employment solicitors did not advise me minus one day in this matter or they did not tell me it had to be soon after the incidents occurred

Do you think the employment solicitors are neglient, they

 

  1. failed to get my medical records before the pre hearing
  2. did not advise me one day
  3. they did not tell me could have done an et claim when employed or
  4. soon after each incidents occured had to be the three months minus a day

This is basic employment law

 

You do not let a cause of action time out, you submit the claim, even if still employed

 

THIS IS BAD

i DO HOPE THESE WERE NOT THE LEGAL SERVICES OF A TRADE UNION

what happened with the personal injury claim?

 

and was it the same solicitors dealing with the dismissal? Do you have in writing that you instructed them to deal with the ET?

Never assume anyone on the internet is who they say they are. Only rely on advice from insured professionals you have paid for!

Were they employment solicitors or personal injury specialists? Unlikely to be a claim in negligence unless they claimed to be employment experts, and it's implied from your post you were bringing a PI claim so it would be useful to get that point clear.

I thought with being dismissed for lodging the personal injury claim would be wrongful dismissal and was no exit interview

 

I also thought missing two limitation dates would be professional neglience

Wrongful dismissal is more of a claim for notice pay.

 

Unfair dismissal is the more substantial claim, but only if you were employed over a year (or two). Unfortunately asserting a personal injury claim doesn't protect you from dismissal.

 

You still didn't answer whether the solicitor who advised you was a personal injury or employment specialist?

Did they issue proceedings before three years was up?
