    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location
    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • 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 the court notification the other day as well. I also get the bank, paypal and other notifications, which always seem to have attachment which contain malware.

 

I sent a few of these off to a banks [problem] people and they looked into them. Most banks have online fraud reporting teams, so it is worth everyone advising them, so they can alert people. Banks will post details on their own sites of current email scams that are doing the rounds.

  • 2 weeks later...

Just to add, I've written a massive quick guide for novices here:

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?425296-PayPal&p=4542762&viewfull=1#post4542762

 

And here is my message, just thought I'd share that thread in context:

 

@Sandy and all other Users who get these:,

 

There's loads of mail like this floating around. I've even had e-mails like this pretending to be from the HMRC, Banks, Companies House and various other high profile organisations. When I got the HMRC one, this particularly concerned me being a business owner, so I contacted the Police "Action Fraud" and discussed this with them. As I guessed, the mail was "phishing" i.e. "fishing for your personal details and passwords", and was told to handle them in the following manner:

 

1) If you receive a mail like this which has a "click here" or a "button" to "go to" a page to resolve "whatever the email outlines"DON'T CLICK IT.

Reasoning:
The moment you click on that link or button, many of these fraudulent sites rely on you clicking this link/button, which often has a unique ID hidden in it linking your email address to something in their systems. This is how they can "confirm that you've read it AND RESPONDED.

 

Don't mark it as spam QUITE yet... See (2) below...

 

2) If the email is from paypal, as in Sandy's example, rather than relying on links (or even favourites you have stored in your browser), manually browse to http://www.paypal.com or http://www.whateverCompany.com, log in MANUALLY, NOT with the stored usernames and passwords you could have saved in the page. From here, use the companies own website to see if they do or don't need to contact you.

 

Also, if you don't feel quite happy doing the above, then feel free to call the company directly, but as I say, go to their page i.e. http://www.paypal.com, get the phone number FROM THEIR SITE (not from the linked site in the email), contact them and their staff will be more than happy to help you out.

 

Finally, if it involves your bank, and you still don't feel happy talking about it over the telephone, then get yourself down to the local branch and get some help from the staff in-branch. This is the fool-proof method.

 

3) If one of these emails involves a government body i.e. HMRC, Border Agency, Companies House etc... then contact that body directly. DO NOT do anything via a website. Let them know about the email immediately. 9 times out of 10, they might tell you to delete it as they didn't send it.

Reasoning:

Often government bodies will contact you via post rather than by email. But as they government is trying to go "digital" they are relying more and more on "online services". If you do receive one of these emails, pass it off as "spam" and ignore it, you could be missing out in very important information from that body. In the case of HMRC or Companies House you can wind up getting some very very hefty fines for being late or not updating information in a timely manner.

 

FINALLY

If you exhausted the list above, and have come to the conclusion that this is in-fact spam, then note that most email programs and websites have a "mark as spam" button or option so messages from that source (whichever scoundrel sent it) will be binned in the spam folder.

 

Note though, it's good practise to "skim over" your spam folder from time to time, just incase an important email ends up in there by accident.

 

here's a list of links for the various email websites and programs for how-to's managing spam.

 

List of Help Documents on How to Manage Spam in Various Programs and/or Websites

 

Apple Mail: Mark messages as junk or not junk

Windows Live Mail (Windows Vista and Windows 7): Block spam and other unwanted e‑mail

The above are the mainstream apps / email programs on your computers...

 

Now for a list of website help i.e. hotmail / yahoo regarding marking as junk:

 

1) Apple iCloud Mail (i.e. http://www.icloud.com): iCloud: Manage junk mail

4) Yahoo Personal Mail (http://www.yahoo.com): s-yahoo-sln3402.html?impressions=true"]Report spam, hacked accounts, and phishing [problem]s to Yahoo

Hope this helps! :)

Currys do send out emails to people normally, I get them as I am on their mailing list - sometimes they have a 'flash sale' locally and that is the only way to get the info.

 

I am getting the 'I finally found you...' messages from overly photoshopped nubile young females who could not possibly have gone to school with me, and from a so called professional lady on her 'coffee brake' inviting me to join her for a naughty weekend, and the photos of 'your girlfriend is like a log in bed'.... tried various ways of blocking them and reporting them but every so often they come back, always seem to tack onto the end of the email inbox (I use Firefox and Thunderbird).

the Currys , have no idea why I get them as not on their mailing list, it says something like please confirm, blah blah but do not open it to find out rest! x

general tip re suspect emails

 

set yr email client on pc to not auto open the email.

right click the email, check its properties/message source.

and, of course, dont open any attachments without it being scanned. most real time a/v's would auto scan a file, including an email attachment, whilst opening.

set read receipt requests to ask ie not auto send. if there is read receipt request, dont do it.
