    • If they changed the terms and conditions of the original agreement in respect of which you paid the deposit then yes you can certainly recover it.  Have you tried and have they refused?
    • see post #425 above: I borrowed £s from a completely separate entity 6y ago. It was personal and unsecured. I was going to repay upon sale of the property. But then repo and I couldn't.  Eventually they applied and got a charging order on the property.  Their lawyers wrote that if I didn't repay they may apply for an order for sale ...   could I alternatively ask this separate entity with a c.o to carry out their threat and actually make an application to court for an order for sale v the receiver instead? It would certainly side swipe the lender and receiver if this other entity did this
    • Hi, no problem at all. It's a Vauxhall Grandland X and I can confirm that the service history is not stored in the vehicles computers or online. The vehicle is financed through Black Horse on a PCP. Thanks, Steve
    • Thank you so much for all the information you all have provided! I really appreciate it.  dx I will definitely speak to the TFL prosecutor before the hearing if I can find them to beg for an OCC.    Just to update. At the start of this journey I reached out to many organisations and advice centres but no one responded. However, a few days ago I received an email back from We Are Advocate, that a barrister has volunteered to help me with my case. He said it is his job to get the best possible outcome for me. He suggested I get some character references, which I have done and will be receiving over the course of the next few days.  He also told me: Unfortunately, you WILL be left with a criminal record if you are convicted! You do not stand convicted of the offence  YET. You can only be convicted if a) you plead guilty AT COURT or b) you are FOUND guilty after a trial in open court. So that answers one of our questions.    I have asked him lots of other questions and I'm just waiting for him to reply.  So glad I will not be facing the court alone.    TD

    • 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.

Having reclaimed the PPI on my RBS overdraft earlier this year see here

 

It recently became aware that perhaps I had a claim regarding a miss sold packaged account

as I was told that I had to have this account to have the overdraft facility that I wanted.....

 

dropped a letter in the post a week last Friday,

 

today I received a letter agreeing that was the case and approx £1600 in fees and interest will be in my account within 3 days of the date of the letter....

 

Quickest, easiest reclaim ever, one letter, 2 weeks, done and dusted.......

Hi

 

I had a similar experience with the co op bank. Initially rejected my claim so went to ombudsman. They then looked at it again and refunded £510. Sadly they just kept the money to pay off some of my loan with them. Sad really as the £7000 ppi last year was paid to me. Never mind victory.

Hi tc5712

 

Put it in a letter, send it off, and they will probably reject it. Then send your final response letter to the FOS and then wait. It only took me from initial letter to offer of money about 8 weeks. I also got 8% interest. It's worth it. All the help I have had on here has given me the confidence to fight for my rights.

Going after welcome through the courts next!!

 

Go get em!

i tried to reclaim my RBS account fees, but the bank said ridiculously that I should have known there where fee-free accounts as I previously had another bank account in the UK!...eh yes, one i opened in 1978!! Anyway, i had to go to the ombudsman, I sent off all the details, and this week they sent me a form, which is not specific to my case, but generic, almost like a survey. Asking me to outline my case in more detail. All I would be doing is repeating what I already told them. Now I am suspicious that if I give the 'wrong' answers, they will throw my case out. Anyone had this form? If so, any advice would be appreciated. thx

The form is generic and as I understand it - there are no wrong answers. Just truthful ones.

 

It might be a good idea if you were to start your own thread. :)

Hi, can I ask on what grounds you could request a refund?

 

I had a key account for quite a few years, and they talked me into a Gold then Platinum account as they said the Key account had no bearing with them as a proper account so I wouldn't be able to apply for a credit card etc with them whilst I had the Key account.

 

Thanks
