    • Hi I have to agree with @unclebulgaria67 post#3 For the funding side of moving to a new area and it being private supported accommodation I would also suggest speaking to private supported accommodation provider about funding but also contact the Local Council for that area and have a chat with them about funding because if you are in receipt of Housing Benefit certain Supported Accommodation that meets a certain criteria is treated as ‘exempt accommodation’ for Housing Benefit purposes but you need to confirm this with that relevant Council in your new area especially since it is Private Supported Accommodation as each Council can have slightly different rules on this. If you have a certain medical condition look up the charities and also have a wee chat with them as they may be able to point you to different Grants to assist with moving costs and your question about funding for private supported accommodation as well.
    • Hi Just to be clear a Notice to Quit is only the very start of the Housing Association going down the Eviction route there is a long process to go. Also to be clear if you leave at the Notice to Quit date only and go to the Council claiming you are Homeless they will more than likely class you as Intentionally Homeless therefore you have no right to be given temporary housing by the Council. The only way that works is when the Court has Granted a Possession Order then you can approach the Council as Homeless with the Court Order. As for the Housing Association issuing the Notice to Quit because there investigation has proved it's not your main residence but you have witness statement to prove otherwise. From now on with the Housing Association you need to keep a very good paper trail and ensure to get free proof of posting from the post office with anything you send to them. You now need to make a Formal Complaint to the Housing Association and please amend the following to suit your needs:   Dear Sir/Madam FORMAL COMPLAINT Reference: Notice to Quit Letter Dated XX/XX/2024, Hand Delivered on XX/XX/2024 I note in your letter that you stated that the Housing Association has carried out an investigation into myself and came to the conclusion that I am not using this property as my main residence and have evidence of this and have therefore issued a 'Notice to Quit' by XX/XX/2024. I find the above actions absolutely disgraceful action by the Housing Association. 1. Why have I never been informed nor asked about this matter by my Housing Officer. 2. Why have I never been given the opportunity to defend myself before the Housing Association out of the blue Hand Delivered a Notice to Quit Letter. 3. I have evidence and witnesses/statements that prove this is my Main Residence and more than willing provide this to both the Housing Association and the Court. I now require the following: 1. Copy of your Complaints Policy (not the leaflet) 2. Copy of your Customer Care Charter (not the leaflet) 3. Copies of your Investigation into this not being my main residence.    As well as the above you need to send the Housing Association urgently a Subject Access Request (SAR) requesting 'ALL DATA' that simple phrase covers whatever format they hold that in whether it be letters, email, recorded calls etc. The Housing Association then has 30 calendar days to respond but that time limit only starts once they acknowledge your SAR Request. If they fail to respond within that time limit its then off with a complaint to the Information Commissioners Office (ICO).     
    • Hi Sorry for the delay in getting back to you The email excuse and I do say excuse to add to your account and if court decide LL can't recoup costs will be removed is a joke. So I would Ask them: Ask them to provide you with the exact terms within your Tenancy Agreement that allows them to add these Court Fees to your Account before it has been decided in Court by a Judge. Until the above is answered you require these Court Fees to be removed from your Account (Note: I will all be down to your Tenancy Agreement so have a good look through it to see what if any fees they can add to your account in these circumstances)
    • Thank you for your responses. As requested, some more detail. Please forgive, I'm writing this on my phone which always makes for less than perfect grammar. My Dad tries but English not his 1st language, i'm born and bred in England, a qualified accountant and i often help him with his admin. On this occasion I helped my dad put in his renewal driving licence application around 6 weeks before expiry and with it the disclosure of his sleep apnoea. Once the licence expired I told him to get in touch with his GP, because the DVLA were offering only radio silence at that time (excuses of backlogs When I called to chase up). The GP charged £30 for an opinion letter on his ability to drive based on his medical history- at the time I didn't take a copy of the letter, but I am hoping this will be key evidence that we can rely on as to why s88 applies because in the GP opinion they saw no reason he couldn't drive i need to see the letter again as im going only on memory- we forwarded the letter in a chase up / complaint to the DVLA.  In December, everything went quiet RE the sleep apnoea (i presume his GP had given assurance) but the DVLA noticed there had been a 2nd medical issue in the past, when my father suffered a one off mini stroke 3 years prior. That condition had long been resolved via an operation (on his brain of all places, it was a scary time, but he came through unscathed) and he's never had an issue since. We were able to respond to that query very promptly (within the 14 days) and the next communication was the licence being granted 2 months later. DVLA have been very slow in responding every step of the way.  I realise by not disclosing the mini stroke at the time, and again on renewal (had I known I'd have encouraged it) he was potentially committing an offence, however that is not relevant to the current charge being levied, which is that he was unable to rely on s88 because of a current medical issue (not one that had been resolved). I could be wrong, I'm not a legal expert! The letter is a summons I believe because its a speeding offence (59 in a temp roadworks 50 limit on the A1, ironically whist driving up to visit me). We pleaded guilty to the speeding but not guilty to the s87.  DVLA always confirmed to me on the phone that the licence had not been revoked and that he "May" be able to continue to drive. They also confirmed in writing, but the letter explains the DVLA offer no opinion on the matter and that its up to the driver to seek legal advice. I'll take the advice to contact DVLA medical group. I'm going to contact the GP to make sure they received the SAR request for data, and make it clear we need to see a copy of the opinion letter. In terms of whether to continue to fight this, or to continue with the defence, do we have any idea of the potential consequences of either option? Thanks all

    • 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.

I suspect it will be a couple of weeks at least, but I am not anyone would know this, even if you phoned the court.

 

It is a real shame that the Southampton court transcripts are not easily obtainable, as then the Appeal Judge could see for themselves, whether your last appeal was given a proper hearing. Without the transcripts it may be presumed that the Judge allowed a fair hearing.

 

How is your search for a barrister going ? I suppose getting anyone for a reduced fee, legal aid or pro bono is almost impossible for this type of situation.

We could do with some help from you.

Thanks Uncle for above,

 

Just out of interest, Why are Southampton court transcripts not easily obtainable ? I have no problem obtaining transcript as far as I am aware, its just paying for it I have a problem with !

 

I understand from letters from Chancery courts in London, if my appeal is granted they will look into paying for transcript out of public funds.

 

I have a couple of Barristers waiting in the wings, depends on outcome re; Appeal being granted if I will need one yet or not !

 

It should not be a problem I have been told, but a problem it seems to have been ? I have not quite given up on Pro-Bono yet, still got a few option to look at .

 

Kind Regards Wendyboats aka Watson xx

Not easily available, meaning free or cheap and available quickly. Making it expensive means that people of limited means may be denied the justice they deserve.

Have you considered contacting the mobile phone companies ( if BW legal have provided account references) for a Data Protection subject access request ? At some point, hopefully your appeal will be allowed or if you want to take this further and you could do with having all the information available.

 

May not need to do that. I have heard before that if you write to the company givng you name date of birth previous addresses then they can send you all data held on you. I sent SD a SAR for each account when l was told l could have just sent 1 with my details.

I dont no how true it is tho

I am not concerned with the alleged debts of the two mobiles , As they were never proven to be mine ever , and neither one totals £750.00 the amount needed to put some one in Bankruptcy , The mobile phones were purely used to make me look like some one who avoided paying debts !!

 

 

CAPONE put me in to Bankruptcy , and was used in the court arena to do this , CAPONE and LOWLIFE new I had "PPI RECAIMABLE" and "HIGH INTREST PAYMENTS ECT, All RECLAIMABLAL"

 

 

On a £500 Limit and after paying via DD for 18 months , and with no written warning, or even one phone call, let alone a E-mail that would have notified me of any problems with limit on card being in default !

 

 

I went into default due to unwanted, or requested PPI . And then followed all the high interest rates , etc. ............. All within the first of the 18 month !

I informed everyone from get go from moment I found out........... After bankruptcy awarded I did not know anything regarding CAPONE OR LOWLIFE................It is all to do with my Equity..................... simple as ,

 

But over my "Dead body".............will anyone take what is not theirs to take ! ;( :( . ( (

DD Hugs right back xx................. Wendy sends.......... Apologies , to you Sweetheart , and it goes without saying that you , and many others here at CAG are indeed "here with me" on my journey to justice , I meant I am alone in life , and use the moors as a image of that feeling :(

 

Am a little down, life at the moment for "wendyboats" Who has some other issues to deal with, in that this is one of a few, so I am feeling very much alone............:(

 

I am so very grateful to you DD for the "continued support" you have given from day one , And to "everyone" who has shown concern and given advice to me over the last 6 months

 

But if am honest I miss our "Mouldy" And our understanding of the need for a "hand to hold", But it works both ways , and I want to hold "his hand" through his problems, just as he did mine, but I keep looking for him on the dark cold moors and I no longer see him...........??

 

When you are alone as I am, even a friend on a forum, who looks out for you becomes a real person, who you trust, as I do you DD, ............ I became Watson alone on the moors, when Mouldy aka Sherlock took me as his right hand man.............Watson !

 

I miss him that's all ............................... ;( xx

No apology needed.

 

I know you mean Mouldy and I know he would be here for you if he possibly could. He really was your cyber hand to hold. I hope he will come back soon.

 

What you are going through is absolutely awful and I know that you are alone in facing this and the other things going on right now. Remember you can always come here and rage about it all. Sometimes it really does help to have a cyber rant and let it out.

 

I hope you feel a little better this morning.

 

Love,

Hi Wendy, when was the last time you called the Court to chase them? I think it may be worth trying again.

 

A Judge won't be considering your application for the long, it will just be sat in a pile of paperwork waiting to be read.

Hi everyone,

 

 

Today I received a letter from Chancery appeal office stating the Judge has considered my letter and has noted that there has yet to be a judgement of the lower court filed, he has requested I make an urgent enquiry with Southampton courts as to whether a Judgement was given. If one was not given forward a letter from office confirming such.

 

 

I am very, very confused and not sure what he means any idea's ? Kind regards Wendy aka Watson still on the case xxxxxxxx

I suspect it relates to the last application you made to Southampton. Did you pay a fee to Southampton court for them to consider something ?

 

The Chancery Appeal Office have obviously noted on the system that you made an application to Southampton, but no judgement is recorded.

 

Suggest that you contact Southampton court on Tuesday to find out what is going on.

We could do with some help from you.

Hi Wendy

 

Only skim read your thread so I may be mistaken but I believe the judge is seeking clarification of any underlying judgment. Perhaps there is an assumption from chancery that the petition was by way of enforcing a lower court judgment.

Evening Uncle, Thank you for reply,

 

 

Yes I first applied to Southampton courts in November 013, and paid a fee as required, it was then sent to Winchester courts who then sent it on to Chancery appeal courts in London. I was reimbursed this fee a few weeks later as I receive benefits.

 

 

It seems to me something is out of sink here, I remember now I had to resend second part of the appeal now dated 25th of February 014, Even though I had already done this as requested by the Judge at Chancery office in London,29th of December 2013, with payment by postal order of the required fee of just over £200.

 

 

I shall ring court first thing Tuesday morning and try to unravel this query.

Your original app was filed at Southampton which (as you've since discovered) is incorrect for chancery division appeals.

 

You're outside London so I'm assuming this is now with Justice McCahill at Bristol? I can only guess, but if the papers have now been read and the redirect from the lower court has been noted there may be an assumption that your application is based on an appeal of a lower court judgment... in effect the underlying judgment would be the subject of the appeal and not the demand and subsequent petition for BR.

 

Out of interest, was it ever questioned if you were genuinely bankrupt ( unable to service the demand)?

Hope the above makes sense Wendy

 

There's a short process into the insolvency regime.. Stat demand followed by petition, or the longer and riskier process for the creditor... Lower court (small claims track in your case with the given values) followed by enforcement by way of SD.

I was advised I had to go to the original court of Judgement (Southampton) to apply to appeal the second failed court hearing, to overturn the Bankruptcy order, which was refused by the Judge, who was the same Judge who granted Bankruptcy in my absence.

 

 

Both were in lower court, and I was told it would be sent up to the Judge, who then sent it to Winchester, who then wrote and informed me it needed to be seen by Chancery division in London, all correspondence I have had has come from London.

 

 

The Bankruptcy should never have been granted as I never had chance to prove I did not owe £850.63 or 1 penny, in fact am owed PPI and high interest repayments.

 

 

This case is very long and complicated, but I owe nothing to anyone!

There are numerous section 9 judges around the country so I'm a little lost on why it was directed to London?

 

Had a quick look through the thread ( there's a heck of a lot of posts) did the sols give an indication why they would not take instruction in your case?

Ah...........I got you I think, I could have paid it outright if id owed it, I understand from the paper work I have seen no application for any payment plan was ever made or considered, it was purely to get their hands on my half of equity in property !

 

 

I never received notice of hearing or anything re; Capone card. Judge allowed it to be posted in letter box and by first class post , I was living away at time and only new of it all after it was over.
