    • Ok, I don't necessarily want to re-open my old thread but I've seen a number of such threads with regards to CCJ's and want to ask a fairly general consensus on the subject.   My original  CCJ is 7 years old now and has had 2/3 owners for the debt over the years since with varying level of contact.  Up to last summer they had attempted a charging order on a shared mortgage I'm named on which I defended that action and tried to negotiate with them to the point they withdrew the charging order application pending negotiations which we never came to an agreement over.  However, after a number of communication I heard nothing back since last Autumn barring an annual generic statement early this year despite multiple messages to them since at the time.  So at a loss as to why the sudden loss of response from them.   Then something came through from this site at random yesterday whilst out that I can't find now with regards to CCJ's to read over again.  Now here is the thing, I get how CCJ's don't expire as such, but I've been reading through threads and Google since this morning and a little confused.  CCJ's don't expire but can be effectively statute barred after 6 years (when in my case was just before I last heard of the creditor) if they are neither enforced in that time or they apply to the court within the 6 years of issue to extend the CCJ and that after 6 years they can't really without great difficulty or explanation apply for a CCJ extension after of the original CCJ?.  Is this actually correct as I've read various sources on Google and threads that suggest there is something to this?.

    • 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.

Did their reply actually state that they were not prepared to refund you?

 

If not, then you have been a little too rash in responding with the LBA. You need to show the courts that you gave adequate time for a response when trying to resolve the matter out of court.

 

If there response was all too vague - "we'll look into this and generally keep you waiting" - then you should have just held back until the deadline expired.

 

These points are covered in much detail, both in the FAQ sections and in general posts.

Yes.

 

You could, even at this stage, alter the sum on your court claim. It costs another £35 (??) and you need to fill out a form, but it could be better for you. Only you can decide....

General queries after service

 

Q. I need to make an amendment to my claim how do I do it?

 

A. Once the claim has been issued the court cannot change any of the details submitted without an application and request to re-serve the claim. You must complete an application notice (N244) detailing the changes you would like to make and send this to the court along with an N1 completed with the correct claim details. The court will then amend the details, re-seal the claim form and return it to you to re-serve on the defendant. You must keep a copy of the sealed N1. It is then your responsibility to re-serve the claim form. You must then send the court a completed certificate of service (N215) along with the copy of the N1 so the court knows the date when the defendant's response is due.

 

 

Q. Is there a fee for my application?

 

A. This depends on what you are applying to amend and at what stage you are making the application. There may be a fee of £35. General guidance: Before the claim is served there is no fee to amend a claim. If any details are being completely changed, for example you are changing the defendant you are claiming against, there will be a fee.

 

Q. Can I still proceed with my claim online after the details have been amended?

 

A. No. The court has changed the details on their system, which will not update your details online. You will therefore have to go through the court to proceed with your case.

 

 

 

Moneyclaim have a very helpful helpdesk. You can phone them in office hours and they will tell you what to do. Their number is 0845-601 5935

s.10 ON THE BASIS OF THE WITHDRAWAL OF MY OVERDRAFT FACILITY AS MY ACCOUNT IS NOT IN DEFAULT?

Unfortunately, they have the right to close any bank account they wish to, or to withdraw overdraft facilities. However, since all of the current overdraft amount is made up of charges, and then some!, you should write to them and make it clear that you dispute the amount owed, and that any attempt to recover these funds before your claim is dealt with will result in further legal action.

 

In the mean time, make sure you move income streams out of that account immediately, along with existing DDs and S/Os etc. I would not pay anything to them until the matter is resolved.

sorry its been a while but since my last post i made a claim- nationwide said they would put in a defence and then the money appeared in my account! so i've been waiting for my statement to see exactely what they have paid and have now recieved a letter from court asking if the claim is settled. i just need another bit of advise please the claim was for £4063.79p + £120.00 court costs they have paid me £3678.68 inc costs which makes the total £505.11p light seeing as i didn't take them for the 8% interest as i felt this would take me over the £5.000. small claims limit should i continue to claw back the rest (seeing as my account with them is due for closure at the end of the month anyway) or cut my losses? would be very grateful for your advise thanks

They should consider themselves lucky you didn't add the 8% interest, do not let them off the rest of the money.

 

It may be worth phoning Charles Bacon, his number is about somewhere, he won;t answer but leave a message telling him you have only received part payment and you will infom the court the case has not been settled and that you still intend to continue the claim.

 

Whatever you do don't let them off the rest of the money, do you think for 1 minute if the boot was on the other foot they would let you off?

Indeed.... Whatever you do, make sure that you don't end your claim until they give every penny back.
