    • They have defended the claim by saying that the job was of unsatisfactory standard and they had to call another carpenter to remedy. My husband has text messages about them losing the keys a second time and also an email. What do they hope to achieve??? Most importantly,  as far as I have seen online, now I need to wait for paperwork from the court, correct?
    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • 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.

    • 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.

If you make any more payments before the hearing you can take along proof to show the judge.

 

Have you taken a copy of the pack so you have one to refer to in the hearing ?

when you hand in the form ask the court staff if there are any duty legal advisors at court on the day of your hearing.

Handed in , paid fee and court date for 24th July, talk about cutting fine I am supposed to be flying out of country on the 25th.

Duty legal advisors will be present that day.

Feeling confident but if the decision does go against me ,can I still stop the eviction on the 29th or at least ask to have the eviction postponed to allow me to contest the decision ?

We can do a statement for you to take with you on the day showing proof of your training course, the dates and where it is I so you can advise the judge if necessary (important you take this, just in case). I am sure you will be OK. Get to the court early and approach the duty advisors - they will be able to come into the hearing with you and support your case.

Yes a statement would be good, don't want to hack off the district judge but announcing my unavailability !

 

Thanks for taking the time out for this everybody especially Ell-enn, furious it has come to this but Halifax legal will not budge ! I forgot to mention that I had spoken to them on Monday after making payment and their legal advisor was unaware of the repossession date until I told him ! They can go hang now not going to mention the court action hopefully they won't find out in time and forget to send a solicitor or legal rep, wishful thinking but serves them right.

I thought they would. Last time their rep accepted my payment proposal before entering the court and put it straight to the judge. Will be interesting to see what they offer this time.

If Halifax will not accept payment plan can the judge dismiss this if he believes payment can be maintained ?

Halifax will also get a copy of your N244 application so they will know that you are submitting the letter offering a payment proposal and also that you have made payments in line with the proposal - they will also know that the judge is extremely unlikely to grant possession to them given what you have submitted ! but like many other lenders, they will try and put pressure on right up to the hearing in the hope that a) you don't know the process and b) you'll pay up the total arrears. Anyway - It's not up to Halifax to accept or reject your payment proposal - it's totally the judge's decision and he can cancel the eviction on the basis he believes you can now afford payments going forward.

 

Remember, you are at the hearing to get the eviction stopped, the case won't be dismissed, it will just be reverted back to the suspended possession stage if the judge accepts your proposal and cancels the eviction.

Cheers Ell-enn you hit the nail on the head as Halifax are still insisting on arrears cleared by end of July , an amount of £1700 which seems a waste of time to all concerned if these will be cleared in under 8 months with my current proposal ! If the judge does side with repossession what are the options or is it game over then ?

It is very, very, very unlikely that the judge will allow the eviction to go ahead. Make sure you get support from the duty legal team at court. It will be fine :)

Ha had a call from legal team asking if I was in a position to pay off the £1500 by the end of July. Told them I could do £900 by the end of July and he should propose that to his client. He replied that the full arrears would need to be cleared as stipulated by his client, he also proceeded to tell me that I should speak to court and they may be able to assist in stopping the possession. I stopped him in is tracks and told him I was aware of the N244 form and how to go about filling in then submitting and not to forget the offer letter plus numerous calls to themselves and Halifax to avoid this course of action. He got very nice then asking if I could keep him updated with any course of action or dates involved, don't worry I said you will soon be notified. Seems to me the legal team realise that I am prepared to fight to save my home and not just give in to bullying tactics.

Hi I just wanted to wish you the best of luck at court on the 24th. I

 

ve been in your position 8 times and ive had a suspended order in all but one case.

 

The last one was on 24th June and all was well.

 

As I could prove that I was able to make payments of the current cmi plus an extra 200 per month to clear the arrears.

 

We have arrears of 16,000 and the judge still sided with us.

 

He said in order to allow the eviction to go ahead he would have to prove without a doubt that the mortgage was utterly unaffordable.

 

As this wasn't the case he granted another suspended order.

 

What im trying to say is that I really think and hope that it will go in your favour

as you can show that you can now maintain regular payments.

 

I know nothing is 100% but I will be thinking of you and keeping my fingers and toes crossed!
