    • An update! I emailed both Andrzej.Tuleja and James_Goldsmith at Whirlpool dot com. I got a phone call from their executive team a couple of days later, and a replacement part dropped on the mat a week after. She was quite apologetic, however, also reiterated the "90 day warranty" period on customer fitted parts, and did not comment when I mentioned that the CRA also applies as I was a consumer buying from them directly. So I now have a spare door switch if the machine decides to eat another in the future! Cheers all!   Note dx100 that the "Hotpoint CEO" you linked to is not related to the hotpoint appliances, but some kind of marketing app.

    • (See the link to DVLA’s INF188/6 document I posted above, page 4 as cited) “I have a new medical condition that I have told the DVLA about on my recent application. Can I drive? As soon as the DVLA receives your correct and complete application for a new licence and as long as you meet all the Section 88 criteria, you may drive. It is important that you are satisfied that the medical condition you have declared on your application does not stop you from driving. If you are unsure, check with your doctor or healthcare professional before you make a decision. You can also look up your condition in the ‘Assessing fitness to drive’ guide, which you can find at www.gov.uk/dvla/fitnesstodrive to see whether you meet the medical standards for driving. As this guide is intended for healthcare professionals, it can be complicated. Your doctor or healthcare professional should be able to help you if necessary." It seems that DVLA think that S.88 does apply for applications disclosing a new medical condition after all. Why might this be so, and what of “qualifying application" and "relevant disability"? S. 92(1) imposes on the driver a requirement to disclose a relevant disability. S.92(3) requires the Secretary of State to refuse such an application disclosing a relevant disability ….. EXCEPT S.92(4) requires the Secretary of State to grant such an application if the relevant disability is “adequately controlled”. Hence my belief S.88 can apply for medical conditions (if the driver meets the medical standard of fitness to drive) as the application remains a qualifying application IF the driver meets the medical standard of fitness to drive, until DVLA (on behalf of the Secretary of State) say it doesn’t, provided the driver believes they meet the (medical) standard. Additionally, at (or before) June 2013 (as noted in my previous post) the medical standard for fitness to drive for conditions involving excessive daytime sleepiness was changed from “completely controlled” to "adequately controlled".

    • 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.

Apologies LM I got sidetracked.

 

 

Ok the defence you propose is rather dated and screams debt avoidance apart from your own input that you have added.An initial defence should be short.... accept..or agree or refute...don't expand.Put the claimant on notice that you will challenge and request proof of their claim.

 

 

Have a look at the slymon thread I have posted him an example and he has edited it to suit his claim.

Defence is filed. Checked with Northampton CC who confirmed everything is ok and filed on time. Not sure what to do next, do I just wait until I hear from court with a date. Is there something I can do in the meantime to prepare for the court appearance.

Just a quick update, received an email from Mortimer Clarke agreeing to allow extra 28 days for filing a defence. The problem is I received it a day after my defence deadline. Do you think this was intentional hoping I wouldn't make the deadline and they could get a judgement by default, or am I just thinking too much. Either way the defence was filed on time so all is fine.

Hi all,

Hope everyone had a god new year.

I've just received a letter from MK sols stating they have received my defence, and have sent me copies of docs that they have sent me before, Stating that There is no default notice as CAC(uk) issued a notice pursuant to s(98)(1) cca1974 which is the duty to give notice of termination on non default cases.

They also claim that their client has complied with my s79 request and sent me another copy of the agg. However this is the same copy posted at the beginning, still with no t&c's attached, even though the agg makes reference on two occasions to the t&c's overleaf.

Am I correct in assuming that with no t&c's their client is still in breach of my s79 request.

They conclude by saying that "their client does not consider that I have a valid defence and if I wish to continue with my defence please explain the precise legal basis for this". Otherwise I should withdraw my claim and invite me to put forward payment proposals to their client.

If it does not contain the T&Cs from inception a copy of the current statement balance and a copy of the Ombudsman handbook then they are still in default.

 

 

"They conclude by saying that "their client does not consider that I have a valid defence and if I wish to continue with my defence please explain the precise legal basis for this". Otherwise I should withdraw my claim and invite me to put forward payment proposals to their client."

 

Its not for them to judge the defence a Court will preside over that and you do not have to justify its legal basis pre trial...of course they want you to withdraw the defence it costs them further expense to proceed with allocation.

 

You can respond to them in your Witness Statement ...if it gets to that stage and they pay the fee....that their attempt of complying with your CPR request failed miserably.

 

Regards

 

Andy

Hi all,

I have now received notice of proposed allocation to the fast track, and N181 to complete from Northampton CC.

I have also received a letter from MC sols with draught proposed directions for me to agree to or propose alternative suggested directions.

 

 

They also remind me that their client does not think I have a valid defence and invite me to complete a statement of means and put forward proposals.

 

 

They conclude by saying that if they do not receive the signed draught/suggested directions or a completed statement of means form within 7 days they have been instructed to make an application on notice for summary judgement.

 

 

The proposed directions seem pretty standard, I have to go out now but will post them up when I get back for any advice.

 

 

Thanks LM.

Hi

 

Yes it is pretty standard stuff but beware of the threat of Summary Judgment (CPR 24)...keep an eye open if they do make application...they should confirm if they have on their completed DQ?

Hi I have just attached the proposed directions for me to sign and return if I agree with them. as I said earlier it all seems pretty standard but would be greatful if someone could take a quick look and give me their opinion.

Just one thing i'm not to sure about. In paragraph 2 they say about serving all docs relied upon 14 days before. I'm not sure what they refer to when they say (These should include the letter making the claim and the reply.)

 

 

Thanks LM.

Its just a duplicate of the Directions in your Notice of Allocation...set by the DJ... not the Claimant.

Responding to your PM

 

That fact they remain in default of your section 77/78 has no bearing on mediation...all parties are expected to participate...unless of course you have either payed it since the claim issued or its a case of mistaken identity.

 

Your defence I assume requested proof and disclosure of the agreement and as the claim proceeds they will have to disclose said agreement at Standard Disclosure (as per your Directions you have just posted) or at the conclusion (trial).

 

Dont chase or remind they are aware of your request and of your defence.

 

Regards

Just a quick question. on the DQ question J other information asks if I intend to make any application in the future. not sure what to put. if I put no, will it prejudice me later if I ask for the case to be struck out because they still haven't or can't supply the T&C's from my S79 request. I notice on Mortimer clarkes DQ which they have served me with, they have left the question blank.

 

 

Thanks for your advice
