    • Thank you very much for your letter in regard to the above mentioned shipment.  Due to the high volume of parcels coursing through the courier network each day, undergoing continuous processing and handling, certain packages may experience delays or even can get lost in the course of this journey. Please note that due to the time that has passed, this shipment has been declared as lost.  I have today processed the claim and made offers to the value of £75 as a goodwill gesture without prejudice. I do acknowledge that you have mentioned in your letter that the value was higher, however, you did not take out any protection to that amount. The protection for this shipment was £20 and we will not be increasing our goodwill offer any further.    Please log into your account online in order to accept our offer. Once accepted, our accounts department will process the claim accordingly. The claim payment will be processed and received within 7 working days.                                  In addition, a refund of the carriage fee will be processed as a separate payment and will be received within 3 working days.  If I can further assist, please feel free to contact me.   I have also just noticed that yesterday afternoon they sent me an email stating that "after my request" they have refunded the cost of shipping. I did not request the refund so will mention that in my letter as well.
    • Hi I had to leave Dubai back in 2011, during the financial crisis. And only now have I received a letter from IDRWW. Is this anything to worry about about as I have 2 years left until it’s been 15 years(statute barred in Dubai). Worried as just got a mortgage 2 years ago. Could they force me in to bankruptcy? Red lots of different threads on here. And unsure what true and what isn’t. 
    • Not that TOR will see this now he's thrown in the hand grenade. Rayner has plenty of female supporters on X, for a start. As for the council and HMRC, fair enough and I thought Rayner was already in touch with them. That's where it should be dealt with, not the police force. @tobyjugg2 Daniel Finkelstein thinks the same as you about tax. The Fiver theory.

    • Often with the Likes of Lowells/ Overdales that 'proof' doesn't stand up to scrutiny.   Think about it like a game of poker, they want to intimidate you into folding and giving up as soon as possible, and just get you to pay up and roll over, that is their business model, make you think your cards are rubbish. What they don't expect, and their business isn't set up for it, is for a defendant to find this place and to learn that they have an amazing set of cards to play. Overdales don't have an infinite number of lawyers, paralegals etc, and the time / money to spend on expensive court cases, that they are highly likely to lose, hence how hard they will try to get you to roll over.  Even to the extent of faking documents, which they need to do because the debts that they purchased were so cheap, in the first place. Nevertheless it works in most cases, most people chicken out, when they are so close to winning, and a holding defence is like slowly showing Overdales your first card, and a marker of intention that this could get tricky for them. In fact it may be,  although by no means guaranteed that it won't even go any further than that.  Even if it does, what they send you back will almost certainly have more holes than Swiss Cheese, and if with the help you receive here, you can identify those weaknesses and get the whole thing tossed in the bin.

    • 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.

no worries, I've been told that even if an attempt to secure a judgement in the UK is made it will be thrown out and effectively there is no real legal recourse to recover in UK, and even less in Scotland.Just need advise on wether to reply to it or not and if so how to contruct the reply,thanks

 

Hi wangdoodle, I'm dealing with the same company. Have you heard any further. There is no reference of any claim being successful. Good luck

I am in the same boat and received a hand delivered SD today but seems very dodgy (even the delivery guy thought it was dodgy and not enforceable) as it is an unsecured amount it also does not meet the requirements as highlighted on the form to breakdown any interest charged. Think its a bluff so will fight it. Has anyone been past this stage? I the past they have threatened CCJ through Northampton however have now changed tack and are pushing for bankruptcy.

Are there any implications of setting aside an SD even though I think its a fake? Does this start any proceedings with the court ie.a trick?

 

When you apply for a set aside of an SD, if the court is satisfied that you have grounds, there will be a hearing to decide on this. If you do not apply for a set aside, the claimant could after 21 day just apply to the court for a bankruptcy petition. The question is would you prefer to deal with it as a set aside of an SD or at bankruptcy petition stage.

 

I don't think you have much choice but to take the SD seriously and to apply for the set aside. If you post to this sites legal folder, you may get some advice there. There are Solicitors who will help you and they may not charge you if they can recover their costs. But some Solicitors may be reluctant, if they don't have knowledge of foreign debt enforcement in the UK.

We could do with some help from you.

The plot thickens. I called the court listed on the SD to see about setting it aside and they informed me that due to the location of my residence it is not their jurisdiction and they cannot accept it. Is this another example of CWD scare tactics using dodgy paperwork? My question is can they only petition for bankruptcy based on the court listed on the SD?

The person at the court has either misunderstood or is talking rubbish. When a creditor or their representative issues an SD, they just do it themselves and they may note a court. But no court will have touched the SD. The SD is only provided to a court, if 21 days have gone by, no set aside has been applied for and therefore it is possible to petition for bankruptcy.

 

You can go to whichever county court is nearest to you that handles bankruptcy and they will accept the set aside.

 

Do not think this is some bluff and that you don't need to do anything. You risk next being served a bankruptcy petition, if you do not set aside the SD.

We could do with some help from you.

Actually Yes.

 

I received an SD nearly two months ago from Solicitor claiming to be representing a Dubai bank to which I allegedly owe £170k. I have no idea what this is and how it could possibly be so much. I contacted the national debt helpline who said the SD was probably a scare tactic and suggested I write to them for more info. I have since sent 5 requests for more information and breakdown of the amount claimed all sent recorded delivery. They also advised as the debt was 8 years old with no contact that it would be statue barred, they have since changed their mind on this. On this basis I did not set aside but contacted them directly. All I have received is a photocopy of an application form which has my details on for a credit card which I believed was settled when I left. I have now received a petition for bankruptcy for a sum £60k less than the original SD. The petition is a copy and I cannot read the stamps from which court it has been issued.How would I verify this i actually from the court. I have no assets, no job and no way to pay so i'm not sure what they will achieve from making me bankrupt and will obviously be disputing the claim.

 

Any advice would be welcomed.

 

Thank you.

Nothing from me. I will post if I do hear anything. My solicitor has advised me and is very confident, which in turns puts my mind at rest.

 

I have also seen a solicitor who has advised me to object to the bankruptcy petition on a number of arguments. If you don't mind me asking what makes your solicitor so confident.

 

Regards.
