    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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.

Hello,

 

For the past few years I have been repaying a small unsecured loan to Northern Rock,

with a token gesture payment of varying amounts owing to being in receipt of Employment Support Allowance

as I am suffering from multiple health problems.

 

As you're probably aware N Rock have passed several of their debts over to a company called Marlin Financial Services,

mine included.

 

While Marlin have agreed that I may continue to pay the same rate per month that I was paying N Rock,

they have requested that I produce medical evidence to support my claim that I'm actually unwell.

 

I do have written proof but I don't see why I should send it to them,

they aren't after all in the medical or legal profession.

 

My question therefore is would I be within my rights to deny their request for medical evidence?

 

Many thanks for reading.

Yes!!! They cannot request anything like that... If all you can pay is that, then thats all you can pay at the moment

Tell them where to go.

 

We could do with some help from you.

Thank you, That's what I thought, but I wasn't certain.

 

Actually I've just re-read the letter from Marlin.

 

They've said that in order to assess my affordability to pay a minimal amount

they require proof of my benefit AND medical proof.

 

Northern Rock already have/had this, s

o I'll stick to my guns and refuse to offer further evidence.

 

I just hope they don't issue me with a statutory demand if they think I'm being obstructive.

Thank you for your reply fkofilee.

Youve been making payments right? (Rhetorical question :))

Well even if they were to try any legal action the judge would beable to see what you are paying.

Thanks for the suggestion dx,

but I don't think that would work,

I've already acknowledged the debt when N Rock were in possession of it.

 

Well ...

.. I've just written to Marlin and apart from other things I've told them that my ill health is between me

and my health professionals, and not for the prying eyes of debt company employees.

 

So I won't be issuing them with any medical evidence ....

. not now

..... not ever.

What is the debt made up of , is there any unlawful charges or any ppi. That's why DX is asking what sort of debt is it.

 

Sorry, my mistake.

I took an unsecured loan of £3,000 out with Northern Rock in Feb 2004, for home improvements. I now owe just under £1,400.

For a large part of this period I've either been in receipt of JSA or ESA, so consequently most of the monthly payments have only been token gestures of between £1 & £4, hardly making them wealthy.

 

stop paying and get an sar off to NRAM.

 

To what end? I don't understand how this would be of benefit to me?

 

and a CCA request to marlins

 

Can I do that when I've already acknowledged the debt?

 

 

Thanks for your reply.

CCA request can be useful.

 

SAR… given the limited value and the possibility of a few charges to the account to reclaim it could be a tenner well spent.

 

Do you have statements for the entirety of the term to date?

Yes, I think so ....

 

 

I could try a CCA request and see what happens. I did request one a few years back when N Rock temporarily passed my debt on to Eversheds ( what a fiasco that turned out to be), and they did produce it.

I'd be inclined to CCA it again and reconcile the prescribed terms with your payments (and current debit balance)

 

SAR to original creditor if you have any statements missing, even a handful of charges from 5 years ago could knock 10% off the balance now.

 

I appreciate £11.00 for the two is a lot of money if you're on a tight budget but it will hopefully prove fruitful.

 

If you are able to identify any/all charges it would seem sensible to start the process of demanding their return + interest.
