    • I am sorry about getting your status mixed up.  I have noticed one thing in your excellent WS. On their claim they are only pursuing you as the keeper-I think it is  in their Point C that  states along the lines of -the driver did not pay , so the keeper is liable. So on your No keeper Liability section  You may prefer  to alter 13 to    . It is trite Law that the driver and the keeper cannot be regarded  as the same person and the claimant has failed to offer any proof who was driving.  BY  only pursuing the keeper  when the PCN does not comply with PoFA must mean that their claim fails. See what the Site team thinks as it should  stop the Judge from looking at who was driving as your statement preempts them from even thinking about it.
    • What would suffice as proof? I just emailed them back my date of birth. Should I send a copy of driving licence? 
    • Which Court have you received the claim from ? Northampton   MCOL Northampton N1 ? Manual Claim CCMCC (Salford) ? New beta WWW.MONEYCLAIMS.SERVICE.GOV.UK ?   If possible please scan redact and upload a full page copy of page 1 of the claim form.   This has been uploaded in my previous messages in the bundle of documents     Name of the Claimant ? Asset Link Capital (NO5) Limited   How many defendant's  joint or self ? Self   Date of issue – top right hand corner of the claim form – this in order to establish the time line you need to adhere to./   14/02/2020   ^^^^^ NOTE : WHEN CALCULATING THE TIMELINE - PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE DATE ON THE CLAIMFORM IS ONE IN THE COUNT [example: Issue date 01.03.2014 + 19 days (5 days for service + 14 days to acknowledge) = 19.03.2014 + 14 days to submit defence = 02.04.2014] = 33 days in total Not relevant as his claim was set aside, and has now been brought to the court again by the claimant       Particulars of Claim   What is the claim for – the reason they have issued the claim? Please see bundle of documents in previous thread   What is the total value of the claim? £10,734.1    Have you received prior notice of a claim being issued pursuant to paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre Action Protocol) ? No   Have you changed your address since the time at which the debt referred to in the claim was allegedly incurred?  Yes - this is one of the grounds for getting it set aside   Did you inform the claimant of your change of address? No Is the claim for - a Bank Account (Overdraft) or credit card or loan or catalogue or mobile phone account? Credit Card   When did you enter into the original agreement before or after April 2007 ?  Apparently 2000   Do you recall how you entered into the agreement...On line /In branch/By post ? I do not recall entering into an agreement with Barclays   Is the debt showing on your credit reference files (Experian/Equifax /Etc...) ?  It was, but it is not anymore   Has the claim been issued by the original creditor or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim. Assigned to Asset Link   Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? No - although they have provided a copy of the assignment notice in their bundle of docs for the hearing   Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor?

    • 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.

When I took out my Vodafone contract I had brilliant signal in the village where I live, however in the past two years there have been prolonged periods where I have been without signal leaving me unable to use my mobile. This time I have had no signal for over nine days and the only response I get from Vodafone is that they will refund my account for the rental for each day until the problem is fixed.

 

I asked could I now get out of my contract as the service is not what it was when I signed up - the answer is no.

They said that I could redirect my calls to my landline from my mobile but I would be charged for people calling me!!!!! I asked under the circumstances would they be willing to waver this charge - they said NO!!!! When I had an issue with my BT line they redirected my calls and wavered the cost.

I asked is there a time frame of when this is likely to be fixed - sorry can't give you one. :-x

 

Now mobile phone providers must be the only company in this country that can't provide a estimate of when an issue will be fixed, vodafones customer service has to be one of the poorest that I have EVER experienced in my whole life and trust me I have experienced some poor service in my time.

 

I requested a copy of their complaints procedure to be posted to me and she said sorry go and find it online!!!!!

 

They have confirmed that it is one of their own masts, it's not shared but can not say when it will be fixed!!! What sort of micky mouse company are they!!!!!

 

Anyone out there is even considering taking out a Vodafone contract - DO NOT DO IT!!!!

Hi

While you may not want to do this, Lee has a good track record on this site.

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?213340-Vodafone-Webteam-for-Customers-With-Problems-**UPDATED-November-2012**

 

If you follow the instructions FULLY and post up the automated reply number, Lee should see your thread and be able to offer some support.

 

In the meantime, I suggest sending a formal complaint (just to get the process started) so that if Lee cannot help, you have the option of going to the regulator sooner rather than later

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.

Everything I say is opinion only. If you are unsure on any comment made, you should see a qualified solicitor

Ask for a sure signal, free of charge. I got sent one and get full 3G signal now....

 

The problem with those is that they only work in your house, which kind of negates the point of a mobile if you already have a landline.

I live in County Durham, when I've looked on the Vodafone forum for issues with the network I was astounded to see just how many problems there is with the Vodafone network.

 

Hi RedCherry,

 

Thanks for making me aware of this.

 

Although I can see that you've already taken a look at our eForum you haven't mentioned if you've come across any threads for your area. If you have could you provide me with a link to it so I can get this chased up?

 

If you haven't I'd recommend following the steps in our troubleshooting thread here.

 

If you'd like to discuss things further could you email me with your details via the Contact us form here and quote the code WRT135 - CAG Forum in the subject line?

 

Once sent you'll receive an automated reply with a reference number. To make sure it reaches me could you update the thread with this and I'll get back to you as soon as possible?

 

What area of the country are you in?

My work mobile (Vodafone) has over the past 3 months showed a huge drop in signal quality as well. I'm in East Anglia. Colleague of mine who works in the Kent area has the same problem. Vodafone France signal is stronger than Vodafone UK signal!

 

Hi UKDomains,

 

So we can help you further could you also follow the troubleshooting steps which I've linked to above?

 

Kind regards,

 

Lee

Hi Lee,

 

Thank you for your reply. I have posted on the e-forum and the reply I received was that a link to this thread http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Network-Updates/4547-DL12/m-p/1588020#M47635.

 

There are four Vodafone users in my household and we're all having the same problem. Phones are all on placed on 2G service as we can't get 3G where I live.

 

I have spoke over the phone to Vodafone who have informed me that there is a mast down in my area but they can not give me an ET of when the issue will be fixed. They have confirmed that the mast belongs to Vodafone. 13 days on of having no signal at my home address is starting to become frustrating.

Hi RedCherry,

 

Thanks for coming back to me.

 

I can appreciate the frustration but can also assure you that our engineers will be trying to make sure that this gets fixed as quickly as possible.

 

I will however chase things up to see if there's any further news.

 

Kind regards,

 

Lee

Thank you very much for your help Lee :-)

 

It's a shame Vodafone don't have a better procedure for dealing with situations like this, when other companies have technical issues they at least liaise with their customers by telling them A) What the problems is. B) Provide customers with an estimate of when technical glitches will be fixed. Where Vodafone stonewall their customers and this leads to distrust and them moving to a different provider.

 

If my BT phone is not working correctly they divert my calls to my mobile at their cost where Vodafone don't or should I say won't, they'll only divert my calls at my cost.

 

An above poster claims they were provided with Vodafone sure signal free of charge, can I request the same?

Hi RedCherry,

 

I can understand the frustration felt here.

 

Please be assured that I'll update you as soon as I can.

 

In regard to the supply of a Sure Signal unit I'm afraid we no longer provide these on a free of charge basis.

 

Kind regards,

 

Lee

The problem with those is that they only work in your house, which kind of negates the point of a mobile if you already have a landline.

 

when the OP was saying routing his calls to landline was a possible fix, I assumed he meant he was having problems at his home location. It would be free and would solve the OPs problem.
