    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

    • 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.

Hi all, just had a bad morning with a new advisor at the job centre, handed in my work sheet, and she said is this it a piece of paper why not on UJM, i told her that i always write it down there is no problem with this with the other advisors, she than said she wanted proof of what i had applied for which is no problem i got them all on email on my phone, each date she asked for i had the email, she then got ****ty with me and told me i must show which ones are full time or part time because to claim JSA it must be full time only, do any of you know if this is true. thanks in advance.

I would argue untrue as there is nothing to stop you getting a part time job and looking for another part time job to fit around the other.

I think you are right, she just told me to come back before four o'clock and prove that they are all full time jobs or my payments will be stopped, i have done all what it states in my JSA agreement so there is no trouble with that,i will just have to find some proof that she has just made it up.

Wait for others advice but i would tell her you are seeking full time work even if that means multiple jobs. You would like her to put in writing that you are only supposed to be applying for full time jobs and show you the handbook extract that says you are only to apply for full time jobs.

 

Then ask to talk to the centre manager

yes you will be considered for sanction for failing to attend sign on or appointment. It also will be more than 4 weeks for subsequent failures.

 

OP - Demand to see the duty manager, dont take that BS. Say you wish to make a formal complaint. Stay calm but remain assertive

ye thought this it is due to an appointment i was suppose to have on monday next week and when i went in for a weekly sign on which my adviser told me i did not need to come in took my monday appointment and did it on wed there and she gave me a new appointment for few weeks and called today to see if there the monday appointment was still on my job seeker profile but this person who i spoke to me told me there was no mention of a monday appointment on the system so should be fine eh? its just in case i did not turn up and basically put me down as not attend as they should know am not attending. yeh its been over a 2 year i think since i last had a sanction which i got my money all returned as there should never have been a sanction in the first place.

they will never show u anything to do with rules when they cant back up there story but if there is a rule u broke then they would not be long and showing you.

 

the managers never seem to be in at any time when u ask for them probably because they dont want to let the manager know that they are talking a lot of bulls*** and making up there own rules

Should i go back today at 4 without the proof of full or part time or leave it until next week, and just send some letters off today to complain.

 

if u have prove of some or all the jobs u have applied for then take them.

 

did your adviser say anything if u dont turn up at 4?

 

i would complain also as if the rules are u must apply for full time work on jsa then the adviser should prove this to u when u ask and also i am on jsa and i applied for part and full time work and no problems at all and why should there be its work that i can do that i am applying for.

I showed her proof of all the jobs i applied for, the only thing she said was that i must provide proof of the ones that i applied for was full time, she told me if they are not all full time then my money would stop, which some are full and some are part,so my money will be stopped if i go up there or no.

i cant believe that they are saying this stuff to do! they cant use u must apply for full time work on jsa as a sanction as there are no rules to back them up surely and i hope other people on here who are on jsa will let u know more about this to.

 

u could phone them up and ask them how to complain as they can not do this to u as its not like you are sitting applying for 0 jobs u are applying for jobs so i dont see the big fuss about them telling u you must apply for full time jobs.

If they try to sanction you on these grounds you would have a good means of appeal, especially if there is nothing in your handbook that says you can only apply for full time jobs!

 

ye i agree u would surely have good means of appeal as i have never heard such silly made up rules in all my life!

When you go back, record the conversation on your mobile phone - you needn't tell her you're doing it - and get her to clearly repeat what she said so you have evidence which you can transcribe into a letter of complaint. She's talking utter b*llocks - you can apply for both full and part-time jobs and I've never heard of any other advisers saying that jobsearch should be 'full-time vacancies' only. Sounds like she's just trying to find something to keep her sanction targets up and hoping you don't know the rules.

 

Being 'too busy' to show you the official rules is the standard answer they give and just means that she knows she's in the wrong - I'm had this myself but was prepared with the correct guidance and it shut the adviser up immediately.

 

Hope you get it sorted out. If there's no manager about - and I find that hard to believe - tell her you'll take it straight to the District Manager.

i agree if he can record it then do it to give u evidence good to see u agree that u have never heard of u must apply for full time vacancies only plus if u dont apply for part time jobs as well that could go down as not looking for all types of work etc.

 

ye there rules only come out when there right and your wrong but not when they know they are wrong.

I don't know what sort of training this so called adviser had but to claim JSA you do not need to look only for FT work as your JSA is based on earnings. i.e. if you worked minimum wage for say 4 hours and earnt say £30.00 then your JSA is calculated accordingly i.e. £72.40 (if over 25) less the £30.00 earnt plus £5 disregarded (I think) so your JSA payment would be £47.40p/w. Please bear in mind the JCP/WP/DWP want their figures down and want you in work no matter how many hours or what the pay is as they see it as a result - you could end up being a lot worse off with travel, expenses such as prescriptions and council tax amount so be careful. My old adviser at INGEUS tried to tell me I would be better off working 16 hours a week in a town near me - little did she know I produced a spreadhseet after doing some research and calculations that showed my wage less travel and other expenses would mean I was £5.25p/w worse off than on JSA and that would also mean working for it and getting no reward - whilst I would love to work I won't work in a ****ty job paying sod all just so I can be seen as working - especially after being on a salary of £30k+ bonuses.

 

Due to the stress of JCP and INGEUS I had a minio breakdown from being treated like dirt and am now on a 3 monthe ESA claim which could be extended if I do not improve. No way am I working for sod all to satisfy these people. I hate claiming benefits but will continue to do so until I feel I am ready to work and the salary meets MY needs not others.

Hi all, thanks for all the advice, i have just come off the phone after 40mins making a complaint against the advisor the girl on the phone did tell me that if you apply for part time work only they would question my job seeking, but like i told her most of them were full time, i also told her that she refused to get me a manager when i asked for one, that did not go down well, i will get a copy of the complaint so will wait and see. thanks everyone for the help today will keep you posted on the outcome.

good on you! u had every right to complain they should not treat u like that!

ye it would be different if u were only applying for just part time as u need to apply for both part and full time jobs.

 

ye hopefully u get the complaint few days and ye do keep us posted anything .

The BS adviser is properly trying to prove she is worth the adviser job but really she is just bullying you!

 

At least u are applying for part time and full time jobs then I see no reason to sanction you?! If u did nothing then yeah sanction you but u are making the effort and that's all that matters. Back up everything. I DON'T trust them in there and never will do!!!!:-(

RLP are a con PLEASE DON'T PAY THEM TO DO MORE! IGNORE ALL LETTERS AND CALLS! :)

Plain and simple rule now for anyone attending JCP is to take some device capable of recording audio or video and audio.

Do not tell them your recording just do it, Then when they slip up trying to get a sanction to keep to their targets you have them

plain and simple. The audio/video can be transcribed and used as evidence.
