    • Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.  
    • This is simply a scam site.  It's been shown to be a scam in the national press and on national TV. Please fill in the the forum sticky and upload the invoice you've received. In fact what you have is an invoice, not a fine, a private company doesn't have the power to issue fines.

    • Good afternoon, I am writing because I am very frustrated. I received a parking fine from MET Parking Services Ltd , ( Southgate park Stansted CM24 1PY) . We stopped for a quick meal in Mcdonalds and were there fir around 30 mins. We always do this after flights and never received a parking fine before.  Reason: The vehicle left in Southgate car park without payment made for parking and the occupants southgate premises. they took some pictures of us leaving the car. i did not try and appeal it yet as I came across many forums that this is a scam and I should leave it. But I keep getting threatening letters.  Incident happened : 23/10/2023 I did contact Mcdonalds and they said this:  Joylyn (McDonald’s Customer Services) 5 Apr 2024, 12:05 BST Dear Laura, Thank you for contacting McDonald’s Customer Services. I’m sorry to hear that you have received a Parking Charge Notice following your visit to our Stansted restaurant.   We've introduced parking restrictions at some of our restaurants to make sure there are always parking spaces available for customers.   We appreciate that some visits such as birthday parties or large group visits might take longer and the parking restrictions aren't intended to stop this. If you think your stay will exceed the stated maximum parking time then please speak to a manager in advance.   Your number plate is scanned by our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system when you enter our car park, and then again when you leave. If you have overstayed the maximum time allowed, you will not be notified straight away- a Parking Charge Notice will be sent to you via the post.   If you feel that a Parking Charge Notice has been issued in error, please contact our approved contractors who issued the charge in order to appeal the charge. Unfortunately McDonald's are unable to revoke parking tickets- the outcome of the appeal is final and cannot be overturned by McDonald’s.   Many thanks for taking the time to contact McDonald’s Customer Services.   Can someone please help me out and suggest what I should do next?  Thank you

    • 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.

So i brought a car from a guy who told me he was a trader/dealer.

 

Car was described as having no mechanical or electrical faults 2 days later car stopped dead wouldn't move. EGR valve had gone and also traction control system had faults logged in the ECU...

 

Took it along to seat got a bill for £2000

 

(cutting a long story short here)

 

Went back to the dealer/trader told me he wasn't a car trader and offered me £101 as compensation and told me nothing else i can do and he will not take the car back.

 

After issuing claim form he made an offer of full refund including costs which i accepted... he never turned up...

 

he didn't reply to the directions questionnaire and was given a further 2 weeks... he still didn't respond.

 

today i got the judgement which orders him to pay £1963 and wrote to him requesting payment.. he NOW says after he got a copy of the judgement that he has written to the court requesting his defence be reinstated as it was struck out and the further trial directions to be issued.

 

I have transferred the case for high court enforcement and i have also applied to the courts for a charging order as he owns his property...

 

Me personally would find it highly unlikely that he would get his defence reinstated as he was given ample time and only when getting a letter from the court telling him he owes 2 grand does he then get his arse into gear... realistically what is going to happen now?

 

#Edit

 

Further to the above, i have evidence of everything stated by the defendant with regard to his title as car dealer and also the fact he described the car as being mechanically and electrically faultless. Forgot to mention!

 

Oh and he has an appointed solicitor... His dad... lol he is a freelance solicitor for his dads firm... can't be very good he was convicted of perjury in 2012 whilst working at the same firm he's at now he lied to police and courts about serving documents in person to an individual.

Well done you. I wish others were as determined as this to stop these people in their tracks. High court good, charging order, brilliant.

I'm now concerned though having paid the fee for HCEO to recover the debt, the defendant is filing with the court to have his defence reinstated!? Surely the Judge will see that the defendant has waited until receiving the judgment before even talking to the court.

 

He did file a defence but due to not filing directions questionnaire after being asked by the court twice and failing to respond it was struck out and i submitted a N225 request for default judgement... I'm by no means a solicitor but have knowledge of consumer law and after this ****** had me over I've done everything within my power to get the money off him to pay for the repair to the car he sold me... it was even down to the point he told me he took it in Part ex but when in his defence he said that he purchased the vehicle for his own use 9 months prior to selling it me... Obviously selling it as it was fubared!

If you had notice of his setaside application before you transferred up then you are on dodgy ground. I hope that you got an assurance from HCEO that there would be no fee if the judgment was not enforced.

 

Even though there may be very good reasons for not granting the setaside, judges tend to go for the setaside on the basis that if the claimant has a just case then he will be given judgment at the final hearing. You might be advised to call HCEO and tell them to put everything on hold until it is sorted.

Meanwhile get ready to ask the judge for costs which you have reasonably incurred so far in enforcing the judgment

No notice of setaside has been given to me nor the court, he said he filed it today. The HCEO said the total exposure would be £150, £60 transfer up fee plus £75 +vat if it goes tits and they can't recover it.

 

#Edit

 

As it stands now the case has been transferred up and no setaside notice has been received nor any documents served to me by the defendant or court in relation to this all i have is a 2 line email off him stating the following after requesting payment

 

"We have today made application to the court for the Defence to be reinstated and for further Directions for Trial to be issued.No doubt you will be hearing from the court in due course."

You will notice in a lot of similar threads on here that an application for set aside has been made after everything has been tied and bagged.

If there is a car sales school, how to frustrate court proceedings must be one of the first lessons taught.

That is my question. Is this the end of it? Because when i told the HCEO today that i had received that e-mail he told me he needed to converse with his colleague and get back to me tommorow... I've got the judgement there is no reason good enough that he could have his defence reinstated, his defence is laughable anyway it just states that there is no warranty and the buyer beware term is valid but my claim is that the item was not as described and that the seller misrepresented himself which trading standards and the police were interested to hear but not heard anything back from them.

 

I have sent the charging order off to the court anyway as the time i sent it and the time i requested to transfer the case to High Court there was no physical notice that the defendant had filed anything to the court no documents other than a 2 line statement... It means nothing so i have proceeded but under the circumstances that he ignored the court until the stage he got a letter saying you owe the claimant £2k and it's to be paid immediately

Further email received in response to charging order

 

"We have already informed you that our client has made application to the court in relation to the judgment you have entered.If you apply to enforce the Judgment our client will apply for a stay and an Order for costs against you personally.The Defendant considers you contacting him with unwanted emails and sarcastic comments constitutes harassment and if this behaviour contiues we will draw your behaviour to the attention of the District Judge and also make a formal complaint to the police."

 

Unwanted e-mails being documents served.... Sarcastic comments... I think i made a comment asking what law school they went too after they keep repeating the fact i have no warranty on the car after i keep telling them it's not a warranty issue its item not as described, false representation, not satisfactory quality etc etc...

 

How true is what he is saying? The HCEO is transferring up the case the court got my charging order request but received nothing from the defendant with relation to them trying to reinstate the defence but the court said they would need to halt the high court action and the ccj action before trying to reinstate the defence but they haven't applied for anything to be stayed at all they said.

The plot thickens, spoke to the court today the defendant has only rang them today asking what his options are and not made any application but i've just logged on and it says the following for 9/1/2015

 

Your judgment against Mr Edward Terrell was issued on 23/12/2014

Mr Edward Terrell notified the court of a change of address on 09/01/2015

A bar was put in place for Mr Edward Terrell on 09/01/2015

 

What does this mean!?!?!?

Oh so after i've got a judgement the court has now decided they have made a mistake... They did infact receive the defendants DQ and the case has been transferred to a district judge for a decision on what should happen next... wether i win or we need to go to court... BRILLIANT news... NOT!

Is he trying to have the address change as a valid reason for a set aside and not filing his questionnaire?

 

Earlier today the court said he rang this morning to find out his options he was advised what he Could apply for with regard to reinstating his defence

 

3 hours later a bar was put in place so I called back and they informed me the defence was struck out in error as the DQ was received but never put on file.......... and they have transferred to district judge to decide on direction.....
