    • Wait until you get a refund from the purchaser before accepting anything else. Please will you post up the text of the email that you received.  Make sure that you look after the text that you received from the purchaser
    • I’ve just received a letter from a debt collection agency called Intrum about an old Halifax credit card debt, they have never been in touch before and the letter says that because I have failed to contact them they are passing on to a company called Resolvecall who specialise in home visits. This debt is from about 14 years ago when I got into some financial trouble, I had a default on file but that dropped off around 4 years ago. Is there anything I can do with this as I don’t really want people coming to my house, thanks in advance? 
    • Just wanted to check if anyone knows, I'm in the process of retrieving the transcript. There was no time frame given in the appeal judges directions, does this mean none applies or is there an unwritten timeframe that applies as a default for these things? 
    • I left a trustpilot review and P2g have emailed me with the obligatory apology and have refunded the postage costs and are will to give £10 extra pre pay as a good will gesture. However,  as i wrote this the Buyer has just txt.me.to say they have received the parcel !  So obviously im now going.to suggest that she pays via Paypal ... I rang her this morning to see if it had arrived but she said she was on holiday and there was someone in her house she would have to contact to see if it had arrived which she obviously has ... So now i know its been delivered i cant go for P2g But i Can accept the exta £10 ...
    • The defendant in this case is Parcel2Go.com Limited The claimant sent a parcel using Parcel2Go Ltd as a broker and Evri as the shipper via the Defendant's service containing which contained two handmade bespoke wedding trays to a customer with  under  tracking number P2Gxxxxxxxx. The parcel was never delivered although the defendant stated that three attempts had been made to deliver the parcel.  The claimants customer waited in for four days to receive the delivery but no delivery was attempted. There was no communication with the claimants customer.  Despite many web chats and emails the parcel was not delivered and on the Parcel2Go website it stated that the customer had refused delivery. This was not true as no delivery had been attempted.  I was The Defendant informed me that the parcel was being returned to me but after waiting three weeks I was informed by the courier that the parcel was lost. I was offered compensation of £20 + shipping fee which I refused and after sending Parcel2Go a Letter of claim this was increased to £75 which I also refused. The Claimant did not purchase the Defendant's insurance policy as requiring people to pay extra for rights already guaranteed under the consumer rights act 2015 is contrary to section 57 and 72 and therefore unenforceable. The Claimant rejected the Defendant's standard compensation offer. It is clear that the defendant is responsible for the loss of the parcel as they did not act with reasonable care and skill when handling the claimants parcel, contrary to section 49 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015.   By failing to ensure the safe delivery of the Claimant's parcel the Defendant breached section 49 of the CRA 2015.   AND THE CLAIMANT CLAIMS £370.00 being the value of the lost goods £xx.xx being the price of shipping and interest pursuant to s69 cca 1984.   See what BF thinks but I think something like this is better. Remember you are suing P2G not evri.

    • 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.

Hi All,

 

Well, sent SAR to MBNA and and got a letter back today with all my info.

Just states that they think their charges are fair (Surprise Surprise) and I wont be able to claim anything back. (We will see about that).

 

Will add charges up today and send back the Claims form. However, do I immediatly charge for the 8% interest of wait till it goes to court like with a bank account?

 

many thanks,

 

Ron

I have received a second letter from MBNA offering to take £520 off of my current bill. The total sum owed is £1159, excluding interest.

Can anyone advise where I can locate the template to accept the offer but make them aware that I will claiming for the full amount.??

 

Regards,

Hi Ron

 

Have u sent of your prelim letter? If u have not then u just need to adjust your prelim letter to something like this.

 

Further to your letter dated xxxxx i accept your offer of a refund of charges totalling xxxxx on the understanding as a partial settlement towards my claim. I intend to continue for the remainder of the charges added to my account between xxxxx and xxxxxx

 

Then use template prelim letter.

 

You can use the paragraph on top of your LBA if you have got that far.

Hi Rob,

What I sent was just a request for Statements.

After totalling up its looks as thought its over a £1000.

Should I just respond with Thanks but no thanks with a list of charges?

Out of curiosity, do I claim for Interest as well? As this is a credit Card and not a Bank account.

Regards,

 

Ron

Would someone mind reading through mt response below?

Looks OK to me but always good to get a second opinion.

 

"Thank you for your letter dated xx/xx/xxxx.

I respectfully decline your generous offer of settlement and request, once again, that you return to me all charges imposed on this account, totalling £xxxxxx. This is excluding interest. I have enclosed a list of charges for your perusal.

 

I will accept the sum offered only as part settlement and on the clear understanding that I will pursue recovery of the remainder, with a County Court claim if necessary.

 

My letter sent previously indicates that you have until x/xx/xx to respond before Court action commences. However, I am willing to extend this by one week out of curtsey.

 

I trust this clarifies my position."

 

I sent this as my Preliminary approach for repayment.

 

Regards,

Ron

As stated in my earlier post you need to send a prelim letter from the bank template library.

 

At the top of the prelim letter write a similar paragraph to the one i wrote in red.

 

You should accept their offer as a partial payment but make it clear u will continue to pursue for the rest.

 

Also attach a list of charges to the prelim letter.

 

Interest

If you are going to claim the statatory 8% then this should be added when you submit your claim to MCOL.

 

If you decide to add contractual interest, this can be added at the prelim stage.

Well had a call today and they said I can pretty much expect a letter in the lost confirming a full refund (which is nice but we shall wait and see).

 

Once I recieve this letter, am I then eligiable to add the interest to the sum as the issue is not going to court?

 

Many Thanks,

Ask yourself why they are looking to settle early. Could be possible they owe your more than what u think. eg interest. I'm making a similiar claim to u also and i have claimed interest which has doubled my claim.

Good Point Rob.

 

My calculationas accumalted in about £1159.00 in fees. Now I asked them what they had worked it out to and they give me the exact same figure. However, I had not added the interest.

 

When I get the letter I will contact by phone with the Added interest Calculations.

 

Many Thanks Rob,

Ok good stuff. Use one of vampiress spreadsheets to work out your interest all you need to do is find the APR of the card.

Afternoon all.

 

Well just to update.

I contacted MBNA by post and confirmed that I only accepted there offer as part settlement. I will be claiming for the rest. That was 12 days ago. I specifically stated on the letter that they had 14 days to respond.

 

Heard nothing today so I called them up. Its seems that they have decided to set their own timescale and get back to me before the 24th. 1 week and four days after the time limit.

 

Really annoyed about this and feel like MBNA are not taking me seriously. Really want to send the LBA but not sure if I should wait for their letter and see what it says first. Can anyone advise?

 

For the record, the £520 was taken off my Credit Card balance which is still a Winner :D

 

Regards,

 

Ron

Hi,

 

Would really appreciate some help here if someone could offer it.

I was just looking through my claim and I am about to add the Interest. The APR rate is 15.9%.

 

I am trying to amend the spreadsheet to calculate at 15.9% but cant seem to get it to work out. Can anyone offer some advice?

 

Many thanks,

WINNERRRR!!

 

Hi Guys,

 

Just to confirm that I had a letter from MBNA today.

My Balance on my Virgin Credit Card was £2500 about two months ago.

 

I have had the card since about 2002 and was made redundant. I then had to take a job with a much lower salary. I had incurred some charges etc and was over the limit on my account by £500.

 

MBNA origionally offered me a £590 settelement which I accepted in part. I responded and informed them that I would continue to press for the full amount. They then offered me £690 on top of the £590. Again I accepted in part but made them aware that I would be claiming the outstanding £500.

 

I had a lovely letter in the post today which stated that MBNA were willing to refund the full amount to my credit card which in the space of two months has dropped from £2500 to £720.

 

This is a winning figure of £1780. I know I didnt get the cash but it still feels like a massive relief and a major weight off of my shoulders. I know £720 is still a good few quid but my aim to be debt free by Xmas 2007 is really back on course now.

 

I am waiting to hear from the court re: NatWest, and I will be submitting Court proceedings Vs Woolwhich, Natwest Visa, Cap 1, Halifax Visa, Welcome and Citi Fi in the not too distant future when all statements are made avaliable to me.

 

Guys, Thank you so very very much for all of your help. You have been great. If I can do it, then there is lots of hope for everyone :D

 

Cheers,

 

Really Chuffed Ron :p
