    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??
    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.    
    • Hi. Please don't follow McD's advice to contact Met to appeal. They won't listen and you could end up giving them helpful information. HB

    • 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.

the T&C are generic i'e they state £0.00 fee for over limit or late or bounced DD.

Good morning and thanks for the prompt reply.

 

umm, good, I hadn't noticed that (yet). So the T&Cs they've sent are not those from the time of application and they've added my name and address? It does look like that, I didn't expect my name and address to appear on the T&Cs, have they done that to make it look more authentic?. My signature appears in the expected place on the application slip right at the start. If it has been pasted in how would I ever know?

 

The first page of what I imagine is supposed to the original T&Cs refers to conditions 10, 1 etc when the first page start halfway through condition 10.

 

Assuming the CCA is reconstituted at best and incomplete at that, where would that leave me now? I'll sent off a SAR to MNBA as advised but do I need to ask Link for anything else?

 

Can I now rest easy knowing that should any sort of court action begin I can send in a defence that no valid CCA has been supplied, or I am getting way ahead of myself?

 

Thanks again (working seven day weeks at present in case anyone thinks I'm being ever so lazy in reading up on things

lets put it this way

 

 

if I were link I'd go nowhere near a court

with a set of T&C's that I'd poss copy and pasted the debtors name at the top

[and yes they should be there]

 

 

nor one where I'd used a tear-off strip from an old application form.

 

 

but ofcourse this is link you are batting against

they'll pull any stroke to prize money out of mugs.

 

 

if you go look at other MBNA threads in the MBNA forum

or even MBNA claimform threads in the financial legal section

or the successes forum

 

 

you'll see other T&C's for you time frame.

 

 

play the matching game yourself

Hello and thank-you, good

 

So I can ignore anything Link have to say to me in writing on the assumption that they will not go to court, and if they do I tell the court that no valid CCA has been provided?

 

And I promise to gen up on the other threads (and send a SAR to MNBA)

 

Thank-you for your help to date, it's much appreciated

hello again, no significant news, a long blissful silence following the dubious CCA, and then a call from a young lady being a little coy as to who she was, when I realised I said my file had instructions to communicate only in writing, from the MNBA days, and hung up

 

A week later a Statement of Account and this week after that a colourful form asking for my income and outgoings

 

So as per advice I've filed both on the pile of paper in the corner of my desk and will continue to do so until a Claim Form arrives

 

Thanks again

This brings back memories

 

 

I had a similar cca sent to me a long time ago,

it was put on here and everyone including myself said it was definitely a cut and paste job,

it was sold to Link.

I told them where to shove it.

 

 

I owed nearly £10k on this credit card and I told them produce the original CCA at court otherwise go and take a jump.

They did take the jump that was definitely 7 years ago now off my credit file and statute barred.

 

 

If you stop paying you will be harassed by them I can assure you but please stand your ground,

if you wish to stop paying that is your prerogative and that is something only you can decide

but with advice regarding the CCA on here and my own personal judgment

I decided that I would not pay and they never took me to court.

 

I would personally do absolutely nothing until a claim form arrives (if it ever does),

 

Just to give you a heads up here is my agreement from all those years ago they well and truly botched it up, similar to yours.

Thanks for that Hammy, sorry for the late reply, I've been blissfully getting on with it, not a single scrap of anything from anyone regarding this, nada, which is excellent and I only wish I'd done it a long time ago and saved myself tens of thousands of pounds, ah well

 

BarclayCard are cutting up rough with me now, so about to start the same procedure with them, they were very good with me when i was made redundant, then it all went wrong at the end of a repayment plan, i complained they got arsey about it while still sending me compensation, it's from a very long time ago so I'm very hoping the same problems with producing anything valid will apply

 

Thanks again for the help and advice on this thread, reading it back was rather humbling

Hello all

 

Not a cheep from anyone on this, I sternly told the only person that ever called me that it was on my file that I was only to be contacted in writing.

 

I got something last week and opened it with a slightly nervous hand to see it was just a statement of account. "if you are behind with your payments, etc etc"

 

So all splendid I assume
