    • I drove a friends a car for a few days and I used cuvva car insurance to insure myself for the time period. Here's the problem: I made a mistake with the dates on the insurance, I ended up driving uninsured for one day and I got a speeding ticket. My friend named me as the driver on the Notice of Intended Prosecution as she should and I will take the blame of course. Will met police ask for proof that I was in fact driving? I mean, any more other than me replying to the NIP that I will soon receive from them? Cause I assume that my insurance for the day will be the proof that they need... Secondly,  if caught driving uninsured, what will happen please? I read it's £300 and 6 points. Is that all or is it worse? I'm only asking for information from knowledgable people. If you intent to just mock, you're certainly not helping. Thanks
    • Hi, Please find letter sent to BMW with all evidence off issues which is a link from Audi. Unable to share the footage on this forum as I am not the best with tech BMW FAULTY CAR LETTER.docx
    • This is the first item that I've ever claimed for - I don't really send too many parcels, probably 5 in the last 5 years, and only two with P2G / EVRi. I've attached two emails from P2G regarding their requiring the documents. They don't specify in the emails what documents I should be sending, although when opening the claim they were requesting that I needed photographic proof of sending - picture of the parcel with their label attached, in the EVRi ParcelShop. The second email is their closing the enquiry due to my failure to produce said document(s). I haven't yet drafted my claim letter, I wanted to be sure of this document situation first before I began action. But therein lies another problem. Not having a P2G account, I cannot be sure of the item value that I declared. The retail value at the time was £600, which is less than the £650 I paid several months earlier, so I would likely have used that, but cannot be sure. And without having an account I can't check either. But, I know that I did properly declare the item and a value that reflected its then retail price - I was concerned this declaration may have been used to single the item for theft. But now that the retail price has reduced substantially, even though the nature of compensation is to return the claimant back to their original position, without my purchase receipt, I was concerned that I may have to claim for less. And yes, I've been through your huge document store of information, in addition to MoneySavingExpert, Which, Citizens Advice, Gov.uk "make a court claim", my own law books (annoyingly I specialised in consumer law when I studied for my law degree, but I graduated 17 years ago), and so now feel that its time to either act, or drop it.

    • 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've had a recent experience and would like some advice please.

 

I had a debt with HSBC bank which covered two separate accounts.

 

I received a number of letters from a firm of solicitors in Birmingham with all sorts of threats and

finally there were two CCJ's issued against me.

 

I finally had some money and sent them a cheque with a covering letter.

 

 

The cheque was for 5750 against a total debt of around 9k and

sent an accompanying letter which stated very clearly that the offer was as full and final settlement

on all accounts held with HSBC and the solicitors.

 

The cheque was cashed

 

After a period of a few months, I then received a letter saying that I still owed money and when was I going to pay?

 

I wrote to them, with a copy of the letter saying full and final settlement,

they now are refusing to accept the letter ever existed and,

strangely, they have no letter that was sent with the cheque.

 

They are now threatening me again and

 

 

I keep telling them they accepted the payment as full and final settlement

and have suggested my next step is to send all the correspondence to the county court

and ask for the ccj to be removed

 

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can now get them to accept they have made a mistake and the debt is legally cleared please?

I am guessing you mean D G solicitors Calthorpe Rd Edgbaston who are part of HSBC.

 

I am not exactly sure but I think you may have to apply to the court and fight your corner .

 

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but sending money without an agreement from the creditor seems a bit foolish to me. Sorry to sound harsh as I am sure it seemed a watertight process at the time.

 

Hope someone can give you real help

Hi Fletch

 

Yes, you are right, it is DG Solicitors

 

Thank you for the articles, they are interesting reading

 

I know it sounds stupid but, I even had the letter and cheque being sealed in the envelope, witnessed by solicitors and they still refuse to accept the letter ever existed

 

I know they are trying to use scare tactics and cover their mistake so I'm more than happy to approach the courts

 

Does anyone else have any suggestions please?

Well if you have a solicitor witness it and is prepared to make a witness statement to that effect , a non legal opinion thinks you will have a good chance. Good luck

 

years ago I had a ccj with them and when I stopped paying they passed it to MCS (HSBC again) and then to moorcrap . They will have to go back to court to enforce so you can either be proactive or reactive..get some advice from the legal bods on here

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

never ever send a payment in F&F unless you have it in writing first that they agree to it. Otherwise they will take it in part payment and keep chasing you.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Too late to say that now but there is some case law to back up the OPs case. They accepted the cheque and left it a good period of time before rejecting the offer. Now he has to prove they got the letter

The cheque was cashed by them, yes ?

 

I find it strange that someone would send a cheque without a letter saying what hte money was for !!

 

Did you send it to the solicitor or HSBC ?

Not a valid reason to make application to set a side the judgment..

....not a valid reason to commence further litigation on the same matter..

..res judicata ..the matter has already been adjudged.

Have you sent them proof of this?

 

 

Sounds like they have no records of it on their system so you should send them a copy of the cheque,

copy of the covering letter and confirmation from the solicitor that witnessed it.

Failing the above and they ignore that..

 

 

.the only way they can attempt to get the balance is by executing the judgment for the difference.

..but you can challenge that if and when.

Dear everyone

 

 

I had a CCJ a few years ago and, the total amount was around £7.5K

 

 

I sent the solicitors concerned a cheque for £%,750 with a letter saying ti was full and final settlement

 

 

They cashed the cheque and I heard nothing for a long time but now they are chasing me for the rest

 

 

How do I get the CCJ removed as they accepted the cheque so I was informed by a solicitor, the debt is settled

 

 

How can they now chase me again and, how do I stop them please?

You have to agree it before you send it. Otherwise they'll take it as part payment and continue.chasing you for the rest.

 

The ccj will stay there for 6 years whether you pay it or not. You can get a certificate of satisfaction if it's paid up.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

And you've asked this question before too. and gotten answers.

 

now you ask the same question again.

 

ok.

 

you indicate they got TWO CCJ's

so I don't think that you can cover both in the same F&F letter/cheque?

 

as a side note

If this was HSBC, I bet this was a managed loan?

they merged accounts covered by the CCA and say a bank account NOT covered by the CCA?

 

could be some reclaiming to do here too?

 

have you ever sent HSBC an SAR?

 

 

might be an idea to go get your credit file

and tell us what actually does show?

Yes, it is HSBC who are now contacting me directly as they are no longer using their solicitors?

 

 

The CCJ was a long time ago, I can't remember when exactly but, I guess around 5 years ago?

 

 

I honestly can't remember if I contested it either, it was so long ago but I can't imagine I wouldn't have

right so only ONE CCJ not two.

 

 

if you've not actually got a copy of it

I'd be ringing northants and getting one sent to you.

 

 

an sar to HSBC might not go amiss too.
