    • you can have your humble opinion.... You are very new to all this private parking speculative invoice game you have very quickly taken it upon yourself to be all over this forum, now to the extent of moving away from your initial thread with your own issue that you knew little about handling to littering the forum and posting on numerous established and existing threads, where advice has already been given or a conclusion has already resulted, with your theories conclusions and observations which of course are very welcomed. BUT... in some instances, like this one...you dont quite match the advice that the forum and it's members have gathered over a very long consensual period given in a tried and trusted consistent mannered thoughtful approach. one could even call it forum hi-jacking and that is becoming somewhat worrying . dx
    • Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant .... I said DCBL because I was reading a few threads about them discontinuing claims and getting spanked in court! Meant  YOU  Highview !!!  🖕 The more I read this forum and the more I engage with it's incredible users, the more I learn and the more my knowledge expands. If my case gets to court, the Judge will dismiss it after I utter my first sentence, and you DCBL and Highview don't even know why .... OMG! .... So excited to get to court!
    • Though it would be Highview you would  pursue. DCBL are nonentities-on their best day,
    • Yep, I read that and thought about trying to find out what the consideration and grace period is at Riverside but not sure I can. I know they say "You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is"  but I doubt they would disclose it to the public, maybe I should have asked in my CPR 31.14 letter? Yes, I think I can get rid of 5 minutes. I am also going to include a point about BPA CoP: 13.2 The reference to a consideration period in 13.1 shall not apply where a parking event takes place. I think that is Deception .... They giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other! One other point to note, the more I read, the more I study, the more proficient I feel I am becoming in this area. Make no mistake DBCL if you are reading this, when I win in court, if I have the grounds to make any claims against you, such as breach of GDPR, I shall be doing so.

    • 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 Guys,

 

I've just been looking through the Litigation Concluded section and notice a lack of Settled Barclays cases.

 

I'm currently at day 20 of the 28 days allowed for Barclays to defend thier case from me.

 

Do they normally leave it to the very last few days?

 

cheers

Hi there,

 

Im kinda in the same boat. I got offered £300 for the £910 i claimed. I told them it wasnt acceptable. So legal nastyness insued.

 

So now i have launched a claim, and they defended within 2 days. Just waiting to see if they file a rebuff. (22 days to go)

 

Im actually looking forward to potential court action to tell the judge what bast@rds B arclay are. Bring it on Barclays.

Hi all

 

Don't worry too much about the POSSIBILITY of having to end up in Court.

 

Think of your letters and the Bank's replies as a game.

 

You know they are playing a little game, they know you are. It's like a game of chicken. They are just waiting for some people to get nervous and go away.

 

Hang in there.

 

Expect a letter a day or so before the court deadline with an offer, most likely in full.

 

Do you really expect a Bank to go to court over something they can't win ? Their costs can't be recovered in the small claims court and the publicity of a win for a customer in the court is something they will not want.

Been through the system. Keep going... it works !

I'd agree with Dickie, its just a case of holding your nerve. The bank will only pay out at the last minute, they might as well hang on to your money for as long as they can!! They will also be hoping that some people drop their cases as they are scared of the prospect of attending court.

 

They could even turn up on the day of the Court Hearing and offer you a full payment before you sit before the Judge.

 

Barclays have got 2 days to submit a Defence to my claim of £4k

Barclays - £4k - Hearing Date 19th Sept 06

Smile - £370 - Refunded in Full

Capitla One - £100 LBA 25/5

Virgin ? Data Protection Act 25/5

We have just filed a claim for £3670.00 with MoneyClaim. Barclays offered us a goodwill payment of £1500 in full settlement. We said that this would do as an interim payment with the rest within 7 days. They refused , saying "we acknowledge your intention to sue us" so we HAVE!!

 

Barclays seem to think that their customers don't have the balls to stand up to them, but after the hardship and problems their charges have cost us in 6 yrs, they really have p***d us off. My wife and I are quite happy to go to court if required and will even get the local paper involved if they want to look like a bunch of total muppets.

 

Like the others have said- don't worry, play "chicken" with them, it's them that will loose their nerve first!

\"I Think you\'ll find our charges are fair and laid out in our terms and conditions Mr Butler....\"

Same here! they filed for defence on the last day possible. Have just recivied the paper work from moneyclaim advising me that my cliam has been transfered from Northampton Court to my local court.

 

In their defence paper work they seem to have just quoted the terms & conditions of my account. Also in the paperwork was an Allocation Questionnare for me to fill in.

 

Has anyone else been this far down the road? what happens next? am i actually likely to go to court?

 

thanks

Hi Jinx, Im at the same stage of you and have just filled in my AQ.

 

It is a possibilty that we may have to go to Court to get our money back, but it is all a game of chicken. They want us to be so scared by the prospect that we will drop our claims and they will be even more richer, at our expense!!
