    • Hi. Could you post up what they've sent please so we can see what the charge is? Cover up your name and address and their reference number. HB
    • I've looked through all our old NPE threads, and as far as we know they have never had the bottle to do court. There are no guarantees of course, but when it comes to put or shut up they definitely tend towards shut up. How about something like -   Dear Jonathan and Julie, Re: PCN no.XXXXX cheers for your Letter Before Claim.  I rolled around on the floor in laughter at the idea that you actually expected me to take this tripe seriously and cough up. I'll write to you not some uninterested third party, thanks all the same, because you have are the ones trying to threaten me about this non-existent "debt". Go and look up Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd, saddos.  Oh, while you're at it, go and look up your Subject Access Request obligations - we all know how you ballsed that up way back in January to March. Dear, dear, dear - you couldn't resist adding your £70 Unicorn Food Tax, you greedy gets.  Judges don't like these made-up charges, do they? You can either drop this foolishness now or get a hell of a hammering in court.  Both are fine with me.  Summer is coming up and I would love a holiday at your expense after claiming an unreasonable costs order under CPR 27.14(2)(g). I look forward to your deafening silence.   That should show them you're not afraid of them and draw their attention to their having legal problems of their own with the SAR.  If they have any sense they'll crawl back under their stone and leave you in peace.  Over the next couple of days invest in a 2nd class stamp (all they are worth) and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above

    • 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.

1.The claimant's claim is for the sum of 5174.75

being monies due from the defendant to the claimant

under a credit/store card agreement regulated by the consumer creditlink3.gif act 1974

Thanks DX.

 

Unfortunately I cant seem to be able to check the claim status as MCOL wont accept the claim number or password on the claim.

 

 

Dont know what to do if Im honest and feeling bad with myself for leaving it so last minute

but ive been working away as I mentioned earlier.

 

 

Would I be right in thinking if judgement has been made already

 

 

the case number and password would be no use and its too late?

OK, cheers,

 

Unfortunately someone is going to have to babysit me thru this as I have not got a clue about putting together a defence.

 

 

Until I came across the CAG I didnt even know I could.

 

 

I do owe this money at the end of the day and assumed that the birds had come home to roost so to speak.

 

 

As yet despite sending away for them the other week I have not received the requested documentation from Lowells or BG so agin,

 

 

how can I defend against them?

 

Sorry if this all sounds a little dumb ass but this is something I have never had to contend before so really do not have a clue how to go about it?

Pls look at other people's defences and lift one most appropriate to your case, editing as necessary. If you're opting for s b the defence is very simple. Even so, post up here first before submitting.

 

If your recollection of history is correct, s b would seem the way to go, but only you can be responsible for what your memory is telling.

did you get that credit report

 

 

I have the credit check now and can confirm that the card account was created on the 3rd of December 1999.

 

Also the default date is 25th of Feb 2009.

 

Sorry but I have to go into work for a couple of hours but when I get home I'd like to complete this with your help if you dont mind.

not got one of those pulldown arrows that shows payments has the report?

 

 

if the DN was issued 25/2/9, then typically that will be after 3 mts of missed payments

so the debt will be SB'd.

 

 

give cap1 a ring, see if you can confirm the last payment.

 

 

to me it looks SB'd, and on balance I'd email the SB defence below

or check if mcol now works first.

 

 

The following defence is all you need if it is SB

1 The Claimant's claim was issued on (insert date).

2 The Defendant contends that the Claimant's claim so issued is a claim in contract and is statute barred pursuant to the provisions of section 5 of the limitation act 1980.

.

If, which is denied, the claimant contends that the Defendant is in breach of the alleged contract, in excess of 6 years have elapsed since the date on which any cause of action for breach accrued for the benefit of the Claimant.

.

3 The Claimant's claim to be entitled to payment of £x or any other sum, or relief of any kind is denied.

.

Hello again,

 

Right, I'm back from work now and this has my 100% attention now until completion. I have tried logging into MCOL again and all works and I have the option to submit a full defense.

 

So that being the case do I will ring Cap 1 now and try to find out the last payment amount and date they have against my account and report straight back.

Right, after 25 minutes on the phone to Crap 1 they are unable to give me any information regarding the last payment they received from me. Cant or wont? Hmmmmmmm

 

This being the case, should I just proceed with the SB defense?

its for them to prove its not SB'd

 

 

not for you to prove it IS.

OK, so assuming that my defense is going to be SB can I confirm how my defense should read please?

 

Hows this?

 

1 The Claimant's claim was issued on 26th January 2015.

2 The Defendant contends that the Claimant's claim so issued is a claim in contract and is statute barred pursuant to the provisions of section 5 of the limitation act 1980.

.

If, which is denied, the claimant contends that the Defendant is in breach of the alleged contract, in excess of 6 years have elapsed since the date on which any cause of action for breach accrued for the benefit of the Claimant.

.

3 The Claimant's claim to be entitled to payment of £5174.75 or any other sum, or relief of any kind is denied.

 

 

Is this OK and if so should I simply copy and paste this into the form field on the defense form on MCOL?

HI all,

 

Just a quick update.

 

 

To date despite submitting my defence on March the 1st

I have had nothing back from Northampton court,

nor have Lowells/BG Legal sent a copy of my CCA or CPR.

 

 

However this morning I received a letter from BG Legal in which was a wad of photocopies of my old cards transaction history

and a cover letter offering me 20% reduction in balance and an offer of affordable repayments.

 

 

Havent responded to this and not planning to.

 

 

Just wondered if anyone a little wiser in these matters than me can read anything between the lines.

 

Cheers, Chris
