      NPE ANPR PCN - No Permit - Locton Estate, London, E3 2LP

      By lookinforinfo · Posted

      Northmonk forget what I said about your Notice to Hirer being the best I have seen . Though it  still may be  it is not good enough to comply with PoFA. Before looking at the NTH, we can look at the original Notice to Keeper. That is not compliant. First the period of parking as sated on their PCN is not actually the period of parking but a misstatement  since it is only the arrival and departure times of your vehicle. The parking period  is exactly that -ie the time youwere actually parked in a parking spot.  If you have to drive around to find a place to park the act of driving means that you couldn't have been parked at the same time. Likewise when you left the parking place and drove to the exit that could not be describes as parking either. So the first fail is  failing to specify the parking period. Section9 [2][a] In S9[2][f] the Act states  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Your PCN fails to mention the words in parentheses despite Section 9 [2]starting by saying "The notice must—..." As the Notice to Keeper fails to comply with the Act,  it follows that the Notice to Hirer cannot be pursued as they couldn't get the NTH compliant. Even if the the NTH was adjudged  as not  being affected by the non compliance of the NTK, the Notice to Hirer is itself not compliant with the Act. Once again the PCN fails to get the parking period correct. That alone is enough to have the claim dismissed as the PCN fails to comply with PoFA. Second S14 [5] states " (5)The notice to Hirer must— (a)inform the hirer that by virtue of this paragraph any unpaid parking charges (being parking charges specified in the notice to keeper) may be recovered from the hirer; ON their NTH , NPE claim "The driver of the above vehicle is liable ........" when the driver is not liable at all, only the hirer is liable. The driver and the hirer may be different people, but with a NTH, only the hirer is liable so to demand the driver pay the charge  fails to comply with PoFA and so the NPE claim must fail. I seem to remember that you have confirmed you received a copy of the original PCN sent to  the Hire company plus copies of the contract you have with the Hire company and the agreement that you are responsible for breaches of the Law etc. If not then you can add those fails too.

      my Leasehold/Freehold property and it's issues.

      By aesmith · Posted

      I understand what you mean. But consider that part of the problem, and the frustration of those trying to help, is the way that questions are asked without context and without straight facts. A lot of effort was wasted discussing as a consumer issue before it was mentioned that the property was BTL. I don't think we have your history with this property. Were you the freehold owner prior to this split? Did you buy the leasehold of one half? From a family member? How was that funded (earlier loan?). How long ago was it split? Have either of the leasehold halves changed hands since? I'm wondering if the split and the leashold/freehold arrangements were set up in a way that was OK when everyone was everyone was connected. But a way that makes the leasehold virtually unsaleable to an unrelated party.

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

For what its worth...I think this interview and the stuff going on with your grandson is a coincidence. The DWP do random checks but it really is nothing to worry about. And even if your ex daughter in law has been spreading rumours they will soon be able to see its just malicious gossip as there will be no proof that what she is saying is true.

here is the link I read a few months ago regarding if youv been reported they might try get you off DLA and onto pips,,,,,,,,

 

 

Almost as dismaying is the news that, following three Freedom of Information requests, Benefits and Work can now confirm a story we originally published last October: claimants falsely accused of fraud face a strong probability of losing their DLA and being forced to claim PIP instead. In fact, the DWP have stated that even if they know that allegations are ‘false and malicious’ they will still transfer the claimant to PIP if ‘there remains a suggestion that the existing award is incorrect.’

 

this is why iv been panicking about the interview ??!!

The point is, people who are asked to be reassessed are in PIP areas and their DLA award has been deemed to be incorrect or needing reassessment - this is what this sentence means.

I was told this is a quick underhand way the for them to get people off d.l.a and to be reassesed for pips and then they dont amazeingly qaulify for pips' date='[/quote']

 

Technically, as far as I know they can review your benefits claims any time since the recent changes to benefits came into force , in you case

 

im on top rate DLA for both care and mobility

 

And

You should try and relax until your interview on

Your paranoia is misplaced - DWP staff have no time for 'underhand tactics'. They have to look at all accusations for merit. Even if they think an accusation is malicious, it still might turn out that a person's award is incorrect for their current circumstances, in which case they will be reassessed to see if they still qualify - if in a PIP area then they'll be assessed for PIP, if in a DLA area, then they'll be reassessed for DLA. There is no conspiracy.

 

 

If being reassessed for PIP, yes some people won't qualify, because the criteria are different, but others will qualify for an increased award. Again, there is no conspiracy.

 

 

Unless you've done something wrong, like misrepresenting your disability or not reporting changes of circumstances for instance, then you have nothing to worry about. The DWP have too much on their plate with the PIP changeover to be staging a mass conspiracy going after genuine claimants in order 'get them off benefits'. They still will chase those they believe to be fraudulent, but other than that you've nothing to worry about.

The reality is that we can't tell you what will happen. Only that if they currently suspected fraud, you'd be at an IUC. As has been pointed out, you can be reassessed at any time - we can't reassure you that you won't be reassessed because we don't know. And we can't tell you you'd get PIP, as we don't know your circumstances.

 

 

We're all (those on DLA) facing the natural worry that comes with reassessment, as we all will have to be reassessed for PIP whether sooner or later.

 

 

Firstly, if you were genuine in your DLA claim and have had no changes since, then even if you are reassessed for PIP at some point, your award should continue until you get your result. With regards to PIP, take a look a the criteria and count the points as to what you think you will qualify for.

The Compliance officer is not going to be looking at the medical side of your claim, only the admin aspects.

No, as was said before, several times, they'll be looking at the administrative side. A compliance officer has no remit to assess at the rate of DLA you are receiving.

 

 

But you will sooner or later be transferred from DLA to PIP and will be reassessed at some point.
