    • Hi. Could you post up what they've sent please so we can see what the charge is? Cover up your name and address and their reference number. HB
    • I've looked through all our old NPE threads, and as far as we know they have never had the bottle to do court. There are no guarantees of course, but when it comes to put or shut up they definitely tend towards shut up. How about something like -   Dear Jonathan and Julie, Re: PCN no.XXXXX cheers for your Letter Before Claim.  I rolled around on the floor in laughter at the idea that you actually expected me to take this tripe seriously and cough up. I'll write to you not some uninterested third party, thanks all the same, because you have are the ones trying to threaten me about this non-existent "debt". Go and look up Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd, saddos.  Oh, while you're at it, go and look up your Subject Access Request obligations - we all know how you ballsed that up way back in January to March. Dear, dear, dear - you couldn't resist adding your £70 Unicorn Food Tax, you greedy gets.  Judges don't like these made-up charges, do they? You can either drop this foolishness now or get a hell of a hammering in court.  Both are fine with me.  Summer is coming up and I would love a holiday at your expense after claiming an unreasonable costs order under CPR 27.14(2)(g). I look forward to your deafening silence.   That should show them you're not afraid of them and draw their attention to their having legal problems of their own with the SAR.  If they have any sense they'll crawl back under their stone and leave you in peace.  Over the next couple of days invest in a 2nd class stamp (all they are worth) and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above

    • 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.

Really worried.

 

I sent back deferral forms months ago and heard nothing back and forgot all about it.

 

Yesterday received a letter to say i was 2 months in arrears and to make payment asap.

 

I phoned and they said they had never received the forms.

 

When i filled out the original forms months ago,

 

i had to phone them to request another form as i messed up the original.

 

They had a record of this request and sending this out to me.

 

This surely at least indicates that i wanted to defer.

 

The girl i spoke to said she would send out another form which would take ten days and i should send it back via email. I will also send it by snail mail.

 

She said they would not be contacting credit reference agencies until i was 3 months in arrears so i have one more month.

 

My fear though is that it will not be processed in time and i will be blacklisted.

 

I have always had an excellent credit rating and i hate the idea of them trashing my credit score.

 

What is the best way to proceed? Do i pay them until i get the loan deferred?

 

All in all they seem to be a truly horrible company. Even their terms and conditions read in a very cocky and aggressive way

History of the loan is that i took out three loans between 1997 and 2000. Never paid a penny back cos i have always been under the deferment threshold.

 

Its now at a total of around £7000

 

I did indeed fall for the paper work. I filled it all in when i received it but they claim they never received it.

 

They are sending me another deferment pack to fill in

Iv already said I want to defer so it should be clear i'm earning under the threshold.

 

Delays have occurred due to them not receiving my form or claiming they never received it.

 

I was talking about whether I should pay them while the deferral process is going through so as to preserve my credit score and then look at claiming the money back.

 

What i might do is go through the deferal process but back it up with the CCA request so i have it as a back up and it shows them i might cause them trouble if they try any funny stuff with me

you are falling into their 'we have special powers' act.

 

they do not.

 

you do not pay them anything

to delay anything.

 

they are conning you.

 

if you want to send anything

 

you send a copy of the original SLC deferment form. NOT THEIR ONE.

Take dx advice Jimmy.

 

I would have been like you a few months back, full of fear over all these scary official letters!

 

However after reading lots of around many sites & here I am ready to fight. Bottom line is this:

 

you are entitled to defer as you are under the threshold.

 

No way they could blacken your credit rating or even report you to CRA's.

 

That would be breach of contract by them.

 

I would not be paying them 1 single penny.

 

I know it's stressful but I just hate to see them bully people!

Ok, update.

 

I thought long and hard and decided the only way to deal with them was to go in hard.

 

I did just that and treated them with the contempt they deserve.

 

The result is that my loan is now deferred,

 

there is no direct debit on my account and

 

there shouldn't be any footprint on my credit score.

 

I will check the credit score in the next month or so.

I told them to stop messing about,

 

im not paying a penny and get it sorted

or they would see me in court and

they would be laughed out of court due to my legal right to defer.

 

told them i know what they are doing in trying to convert genuine deferrers into payers

and if they dont sort it i will utilise their complaints procedure and following that the ombudsman.

 

Put it all in writing and got it sorted.

 

Not even a direct debit on my account. been checking daily

I used their form but made it very clear that they had no right to touch my credit score, any bs about promoting responsible lending is a red herring because they are a debt collector and if any of their actions affect my ability to obtain credit they will face a civil action as well as complaints etc.
