    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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 had created one very similar to this but had the function to add a photograph this would then set it up nicely, just in case the card was in the OH purse then it could cause issues, think of it as a safety issue, with the attachment of a photo then there will be no issue in regards to anyone giving assistance, including the medical team dealing, as they will see who the are looking at. An added precautionary feature

 

 

Good job though well laid out

If I have been of any help, please click on my star and leave a note to let me know, thank you.

Just looking at medic-alert type things now. I've decided to go for the bracelet as it's easiest to access for medics. Also metal i.e. stainless steel - to make it reasonably fire proof. However, All I'm going to put on it is how to get the info, not the info itself. The info is on a web site - so globally accessible and easy for me to keep completely up to date.

 

To access the info, they'll be instructed to e-mail me using a 'password' in the subject line to trigger an auto reply containing the link to the web page. The auto process will also only respond to certain e-addresses such as *.nhs.uk and *.nhs.net - so that the location isn't given to just anyone.

 

Mike.

Thanks for this. Ideal for carrying in wallet. Would be great if we could save the card completed but then only change the parts which may need changing regularly like current medication. I can understand the need to protect the file but it can be a bit time consuming having to re-enter every piece of information just to remove/add 1 item of medication. Still a great idea though.:-)

If you actually take the time to read post#1 the instructions on how to save are there, read from the WARNING onwards.

FYI. If that statement was meant for me then please do not be patronising. I read all the above and understand that you have to save the pdf under a different filename. I was just saying that it would be better if we didn't have to enter each piece of information every time we had to update the card. Being a quite recently diagnosed diabetic, who has been in hospital quite frequently for surgery and infections my medication has been, and probably will continue to be, changed quite often ie. Insulin doseage. It is therefore quite tedious having to re-enter every piece of information just to ammend, for example an insulin dose from 30 units to 40 units.

I see nothing Patronising in my response.

 

Your post#4 and I quote this part of that post:

The Protection is there as this is CAGs work freely available to download and use. (No the protection will not be removed)

 

As for a bit time consuming having to re-enter everything, that is why I mentioned what I did in post#6 which you seem to have taken offence at. If you had followed the instructions in that post you would have no need to keep having to re-enter everything.

The way I pick it up from your message in post 6 if I save the file with a new filename then I should be able to edit that file. Unfortunately, when the file is saved under a new file name it is also saved with all protection still in place therefore, the newly saved document, cannot be edited. Hence the need to re-enter all data again. Like I said a great and useful idea, which in my case, in the long run I'll probably return to once meds are all settled and not changing every fortnight or so.

I have just tested this by using open from the website then using save as. I have then been able to go into the document multiple times and making small changes and saving between each, creating a new version of the program. As it is a PDF, I am using Acrobat Reader DC to update the file.
