    • Hi everyone, Thanks for the responses. Just a few follow up questions in light of what's been said:   If I dont appeal to PPM, who can I appeal to?   Why should the PCN been attached to the windscreen? Is this written in law?   I assumed the document I had received was the NTK, if this is not the case, what does a NTK look like?   Regarding the compliance with the Protection of Freedoms Act, could the "period" of parking not be argued either way? The legislation doesnt state it must have a start/end time of parking, which I assumed an ANPR camera would pick up if it had one. Is 4 minutes not technically enough to show the vehicle was parked?    Thanks !

    • Will get them done asap My job changes week to week so at the time I didn’t know. 
    • You will probably get a couple more reminders followed by further demands fro unregulated debt collectors with even increasing amounts to pay. They are all designed to scare you into paying.  Don't. It's a scam site and they do not know who was driving and they know the keeper is not liable to pay the PCN. Also the shop was closed so they have no legitimate interest in keeping the car park clear. So to charge £100 is a penalty as there is no legitimate interest which means that the case would be thrown out if it went to Court.  Keep your money in your wallet and be prepared to ignore all their letters and threats. Doubtful they would go to Court since a lot more people would not pay when they heard  MET lost in Court. However they may just send you a Letter of Claim to test your resolve.  If yoy get one of those, come back to us and we will advise a snotty letter to send them.  You probably already have, but take a look through some of our past Met PCNs to see how they are doing.
    • Hello, been a while since I posted on here, really hoping for the same support an advice I received last time :-) Long, long story for us, but basically through bad choices, bad luck and bad advice ended up in an IVA in 2016. The accounts involved all defaulted, to be expected. In 2018, I got contacted by an 'independent advisor' advising me that I shouldn't be in an IVA, that it wasn't the solution for our circumstances and that they would guide us through the process of leaving the IVA and finding a better solution. I feel very stupid for taking this persons advice, and feel they prey on vulnerable people for their own financial gain (it ended with us paying our IVA monthly contribution to them)-long and short of it our IVA failed in 2018. At the same time the IVA failed we also had our shared ownership property voluntarily repossessed (to say this was an incredibly stressful time would be an understatement!) When we moved to our new (rented) property in August 2018, I was aware that creditors would start contacting us from the IVA failure. I got advice from another help website and started sending off SARs and CCAs request letters. I was advised not to bury my head and update our address etc and tackle each company as they came along. Initially there was quite a lot of correspondence, and I still get a daily missed call from PRA group (and the occasional letter from them), but not much else. However, yesterday i had a letter through from Lowell (and one from Capital One) advising that they had bought my debt and would like to speak with me regarding the account. There will be several.of these through our door i suspect, as we did have several accounts with Capital One. Capital One have written to us with regular statements over the last 5 years, and my last communication with them was to advise of of our new address (June 2019), I also note that all of these accounts received a small payment in Jan2019 (i'm assuming the funds from the failed IVA pot). Really sorry for the long long post, but just thought id give (some of) the background for context.... I guess my question at the moment is.....how do I respond to Lowell...do I wait for the inevitable other letters to arrive then deal with them all together or individually...? Do I send them a CCA?  Many thanks

    • 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.

Ok, I don't know why they Terminated twice - maybe they're just going through the motions with a view to collecting the o/d now, starting from scratch.

 

No chgs added since the first termination so nothing wrong there.

 

So I suggest you move fwd with my suggestions in post #23.

We could do with some help from you

No further news apart from my PPI claim is now with the FOS. Hopefully after my overdraft is SB then i will go for

court action on mortgage arrears. If Barclays in the meantime issue proceedings for the overdraft i will counterclaim for the mortgage arrears.

 

So keeping my options open at the moments.

According to my records the Barclays Overdraft is now Statute Barred. Apart from one phone call from Barclays collection dept no further action taken by Barclays.

Have noticed from my Noodle Report that Barclays have issued a Default Notice on 26/10/13 - The DN was not received.

 

So we have in relation to my Barclays Overdraft :-

 

Barclays Bank have issued 2 Termination Notices dated 11/4/08 and 11/11/13 Under Sections 76 (I) and 98 (J) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

Barclays have also issued a Default Notice in October 2013 !

 

As i claimed PPI on this particular Barclays account in 2013 has the SB clock started again ? Does this explain the lack of action on behalf of Barclays ?

pp ireclaim does not reset SB

dx - Many thanks for your reply.

 

SB clock started from 'cause of action' when Barclays first called in the Overdraft in April 08 with an Overdraft Termination Notice under Sections 76 (I) & 98 (J) of the Consumer

Credit Act 1974.

And the default notice placed on my credit files over 5 years after COA ! Is this not against The Information Commisioner's guide published in Jan of this year ? Suspect only a guide and ICO office are toothless ?

 

However 70% of the Overdraft represent charges / interest !

 

Any chance of this default being removed by Barclays ?

Hi Brown1950,

 

 

Been reading your thread with great interest. I'm going through the same with RBS. How did you get on with Barclays? Would like to know if you have any update for us.

Regards

Pancake.

 

Barclays passed debt over to BCW who after receiving statute barred letter gave up. Barclays have

now passed debt over to Westcot's who send me nice text's twice a day/ one phone call per day/

one letter per week- Have ignored all these and have now sent Westcot's a statute barred letter.

Let's see who Barclays pass the debt on to next ?

Have you sent the SB letter to Barclayshark ? If the account is now statute barred and they are continuing to farm it out to DCAs, then I think you need to make a formal complaint. Once a "debtor" has advised that they will no longer be making payment on a statute barred account, then collection activity should cease. IMHO, not only can this be considered harassment - if they are assigning the account then they are being less than truthful with the DCAs as they are basically saying this is an active account that can be collected.

 

I would send a formal complaint to B/shark head / registered office and point out that the account is statute barred and they have been made aware of this. That their continued selling on or passing to DCA for collection will be reported to the FOS.

Thanks for your post however i cannot see the point in complaining to Barclays as from previous

experience it will fall in def ears ! I have better things to do than get into 'letter tennis' with the most complained about Bank which is Barclays.

 

 

Have received a response from Westcot to by SB letter- they are investigating with Barclays and

will come back to me . In the meantime they say all collection activity has been stopped.

 

Have now issued court proceedings against Barclays for Mortgage Arrears fees-

Lets see if they try and counterclaim ?

My opinion is that you are doing the right thing by pressing on with the mortgage arrears and ignoring any correspondence about the overdraft balance for now - if it's sb, they have no cours of action for direct litigation anyway.

 

I would also advise that you don't raise the od balance with Barclays litigation, as they aren't always that "joined up" in their thinking. I also have an outstanding of debt that has been sold on and ithey have made no attempt to set-off against this for my cc claim (although they do want to set off against the balance that was left on the card). No promises on this one, but it's up to them to raise this following proceedings.

 

Keep at the muppets! ;)

Any update on your claim?

Barclays solicitors are trying to stall mine for a month; would be interesting to know if they are taking the same tack with you?
