    • No, but all you'd do is blindly run the statute barred date for another 18 months. Just sit on your hands until you get a letter of claim, then send a CCA request.  
    • Just like last time, Evri requested more time so they have another 2 weeks
    • Just an update, finance company rejected my complaint saying they've found damage but can't tell when it's from even though I've shown them how the front end is misaligned in the advert photos compared to another identical model car they're selling.  Dealership now want to charge me to get the car brought back to me but will only discuss over the phone which seems off. They're also saying no damaged was picked up by JLR main dealership before I purchased it but my local JLR dealerships till this day haven't mentioned the damage to me because they don't go into stuff like that for some reason lol  Ombudsman case is still open, not sure if I should leave the car with them or just pay to have it brought back.
    • Hi all, I get esa and pip,  I have £1200 in arrears that I owed my ex partner, I have been paying £100 per month to clear this debt that was setup by standing order, as I have complex needs I forgot about this standing order and have overpaid mainternance by around £4000, I told CSA I am happy for my ex partner to keep overpayment I do not wish to seek anything back, however they have declined to take of the sum of £1200 and are still saying I owe this to my ex partner. In my second question it was announced that pip would stop for mental health, I don't understand the link below Disability benefits system to be reviewed as PM outlines "moral mission" to reform welfare - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK The Prime Minister has outlined a package of sweeping reforms to put work at the heart of welfare and... Does this mean my money is going to stop? I have spoken to my key worker and I am already recieveing help from mental health team and complex needs team along with connections and mind, I just don't get what is going on.
    • No, i haven't had one for about 10+ years. I am thinking of just going to the court in person and pay at the counter

    • 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 Battler

 

Welcome to CAG

 

Here is the http://www.energy-uk.org.uk/publication/finish/43-code-of-practice-for-accurate-bills/412-the-code-of-practice-for-accurate-bills-back-billing-for-domestic-customers.html

 

http://www.britishgas.co.uk/about-us/standards-of-conduct.html

 

Write a Formal Letter of Complaint, mark it as such. Explain what's happened, how they have let you down (not adhering to accurate billing code) and what you want them to do (provide accurate bills).

 

Send it to:-

 

Mr Chris Weston

Managing Director

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Thanks for your reply rebel11 have read your links but does not say how to or who is responsible for the enforcement of the "code of accurate of billing."

Have gone through the BG complaints process and the Energy Ombudsman Services complaints process who upheld my complaints.

Parts of the recommendations by the EOS were that BG were to pay me compensation and produce a full and detailed statement of accounts in accordance with the "Code."

BG have refused to comply. Have complained further to EOS who have buried their head in the sand.

My understanding is that Chris Weston has left BG and gone to Aggreko an massive energy generator who supply BG. Have repeatedly sent recorded delivery letters to BG including requesting

details and address of CEO-no response to letters.

dx100uk- BG falsely claim that I owe them in excess of £500 the reality is that they owe me substantial refunds and compensations including EOS compensation. The full amounts

can only be determined once they produce full and detailed bills in compliance with the "Code of Accurate Billing" which they refuse to do so.

Have requested full details and particulars of any contracts that BG allege that I have signed or consented to BG again refuse to supply.

Any feedback appreciated

haven't quite worked out the reply post system yet !!!

Hi BATTLER

 

Contact your MP, get him on the case, BG are clearly being 'difficult'.

 

Ofgem are responsible for the "code of accurate of billing''.

 

MP can write letter to BG-BG can ignore-MP cannot enforce "Code of Accurate Billing."

OFGEM will not act for an individual domestic energy customer-prefer to bury their head in sand-

OFGEM will not enforce "Code of Accurate Billing" for an individual domestic energy customer.

Both cannot stop any BG court action or disconnection for an individual domestic energy customer-

Any comments appreciated

If BG are considering court action you need to take the suggestions onboard and act on them.

 

The suggested actions have worked for others on this site.

Thanks for the reply have chacked your link it says "Chris was appointed to the Board on 1 July 2009. Chris submitted his resignation in May 2014" further if you check the Aggreco at -aggreko.com/media-centra/press-releases/aggreko-announces-the"]aggreko.com/media-centra/press-releases/aggreko-announces-the[/url] -appointment-of-chris-weston-as-chief-executive-officer/

it says "29th May 2014 Aggreko announces the appointment of Chris Weston as Chief Executive Officer" as posted earlier I am still awaiting the particulars and details of their CEO from British Gas.

 

I would be grateful if you could direct me to any posts were British Gas enforcement of the Code of Accurate Billing was acheived by the suggested actions or otherwise

According to the link, he still works for BG, it also states :- 'Chris submitted his resignation in May 2014 and is subject to 12 months' notice'.

 

This site has a search facility, type in 'British Gas', it will throw up consumers who have had billing issues and the matter has been resolved.

The site does not say"he (Chris Weston) still works for BG" it says that he has "resigned" this is also consistent with the the Aggreko announcement. BG refuse to produce the particulars and details of their current acting CEO.

 

I can find no posts on the CAG website where British Gas has been forced to provide bills in accordance with the "Code of Accurate Billing"-typing in "British Gas or otherwise"-Anyone know any different
