    • I am sorry that you have come across excel -possibly the most inhumane of all the rogues that ruin parking in private car parks. i am more sorry that I have missed your thread until now. As I understand it, their artic. was parked in front of their parking sign and the Blue badge places forcing you to stop somewhere else in the car park to observe the rules. On realising that even the Blue badge places were paid places and that you did not have the correct coinage you quite rightly decided to leave. Thus you had read their terms and until you have read them and signified your acceptance by either paying or staying, you are not classed as being parked.  You have a MINiMUM of five minutes  leave. Sadly Excel do not understand any words greater than two syllables which is where their problems start. Their greed, ignorance, inhumanity, etc etc all carry on from there. However they do know that Judges do understand what minimum means and are well aware of the Equality Act  so I wouldn't be too worried about what excel  will do. Plus we still have to see their PCN and when it comes to producing a Notice that complies with the Act relating to private car parks they do not excel at that. I hope that the Iceland MD will cancel the ticket. You still have a couple of other routes you could try. The first one is your Member of Parliament will probably be happy to help as they will need all the votes they can get with an election looming. Plus your local newspaper may also pitch in after hearing your story to go after Iceland and excel. [You may notice I have not merite them with a capital E as it is definitely undeserved.]

    • 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.

Did they give you the new bank details ? if so - make sure you change your standing order in plenty of time.

Just An update

 

My wife cant start the job untill 1st of july now at the NHS as she has to have some injections to protect her from mumps ? and they cant do them untill the 27th june :(

 

 

SO HER FIRST WAGE WILL BE AT THE END OF JULY ! :(

she got offerd the job 12th may and it has been delayed several weeks due to medical and clearance checks

 

still no reply as yet and no phone calls regarding my offer to pay 28th this month

 

i CAN afford to pay them the cmi + £200 on the 28th june ,

but then we will have a new payment due 1st of july of which i can afford to pay weekly

 

 

then by the end of july we can make a full payment ready for the 1st of august payment and we will be then back upto date ( upon making double payments in july)

should i call them ?

or write to them ?

 

im starting to panic as if they dont accept weekly payments in july

- for julys payment they will go straight for repossession

even tho technically i will be paying the month amount due in the same month its due

Regards

markez

 

in English

1st june due payment - Paying end of june

1st July Payment due - paying weekly starting 1st july (splitting it over 3 weeks )

- so be paid by 18 th july

 

1st August Payment due - Paying at end of july so back upto date

 

Due to the nature of my wifes delay getting her start date at new employment we have no choice

am i asking for trouble

 

Regards

Markez

ok Thanks DX

will it have a massive effect on my case if it goes to court ?

as i have genuine circumstances that we have a paper trail for

shall i just send a proposal letter of the payments i am going to make ?

im not very good with the letters lol

 

All the payments due for this month and july will be paid in the same months they are due - just not on the due date

is it reasonable to ask kenny if i can change the due date to the end of the month instead of the beginning so then they wont actually be late payments > ?

Hi - suggested letter -

 

 

Further to our previous letter of (date) advising the need to make adjustments to our payments in June & July due to Mrs XXX's new job - unfortunately the start date has been delayed until 1st July. Therefore we will have to schedule payments as follows:

 

 

1st June payment - Paying end of June as previously advised

1st July payment- we will start paying weekly starting 1st July (splitting it over 3 weeks ) therefore the payment will be paid in full by 18th July.

 

We trust you find the above proposal acceptable.

 

 

Yours faithfully etc.

UPDATE

 

Got a letter this morning dated 8th june

- saying they haven't received the payment due on the 1st of june

of which i sent the letter that ell helped me explaining i will pay at the end of june recorded Delivery and it was signed for on the 3rd june - of which i have proof

 

They are now stating i have to contact them with 15 days of the letter of which will be the 23rd june !!

not leaving me much time to reply

it also states that they may instruct their solicitors to claim possession :( :( as there is a suspended possession court order

 

im going to have to get a new letter done today and sent out first class next day delivery as

(i Have sent the other letter stating when i will be paying in july

 

looks like they where just waiting for us to slip up and then pounce again

- we haven't missed a payment since august last year (last court date )

 

and this payment was due on 1st june of which we are paying on the 28th as stated

 

Really worried now

Regards

Hi there - if they signed for the letter on 3rd June which was a Saturday - it would not have gone anywhere in their offices till the Monday (5th) - they don't deal with letters straight away anyway and the letter you received dated 8th June will have been instigated by their system a couple of days before so it's entirely possible that no-one read your letter until after they had sent one to you.

 

 

I'd wait a few days and see if anything else turns up from them.
