    • Thanks all! My wife was driving at the time (took our daughter to get new school uniform) and I wasn't there so I'm not sure what the signage was actually like, but yes, Parkopedia says 2:30, so it's barely over that. I will check it out with her when she gets home later, I haven't even told her about this yet as she'll probably be quite upset. So - likely my best response at this stage is to just wait it out until a Letter Before Claim arrives?

    • 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.

I had some outstanding crisis loans to pay and they sent me a letter last year demanding payment, I think it was for the full amount but I can't remember now.

 

If I hadn't just burned half a tree's worth of letters from them the other day I could dig it out now probably and check.

 

I wrote back to them and asked them if I could pay it back weekly or monthly at a reduced rate,

and they never replied, I just assumed they were giving me more time as you can write to them an appeal for more time as well.

 

Today I get a demand from Akinika to the tune of £300 and there is probably some more,

as the inept organisation that they are they can't just bundle everything you owe them up into one tidy sum.

 

Can I safely assume then that I can just ignore this and it'll eventually go away

and I'll probably never ever get a mortgage?

 

 

Or should I deal with it.

 

 

Have the DWP done something wrong,

like contravene the data protection act?

Because I'll have a bad credit rating...?

 

shouldn't I contact the DWP and tell them what's happened,

or just ignore it now that they passed it on to the debt collectors?

 

 

Does this mean I can write it off now lol

 

If they'd written back to me last year, I'd have agreed a small amount to pay back,

in fact I think I offered then £5 per week!

 

just file it away in the next pile of bonfire material and forget about it then?

I'll do that then.

 

If Akinika are handling it though does that mean the debt is no longer with the DWP?

 

I wont mention anything of the letter I sent them last year, I'll just file an SAR so I know just how much I owe them.

 

Can they take it out of working tax credits?

I suppose legally if you can pass a debt on to someone else then there's nothing to stop them handing it back to the lender.

 

I'll write to them and explain what has happened, and just ask them to clarify exactly how much I owe them, under the DPA 1998 SAR before I arrange to pay them back at a rate I can afford.

Akiinka have passed the debt onto Wright Hassall now, got a nice letter from them this morning. Is this supposed to intimidate me?

 

I should write to the DWP though soon right, been a bit depressed/snowed under lately. I did a load of pro bono work and didn't get paid, so now I'm in a pickle.

 

I'm suyre the DWP will be understanding of all that. I was under the impression these crisis loans were easy to handle, and defer, but they didn't reply to my letter last year. As far as I was concerned there was no default on my responsibilities.

No it is free from the DWP, and all the details of addresses you need to send it too, will be in the link provided.

?? There is no box for you to make a complaint in, all you're doing is telling them that you want all the info they have on you.

 

Send it to your local JCP, or deliver it by hand to them.

You need to keep the SAR and any complaint separate as they are two totally different things, and two completely different departments.

 

Just send off the SAR to the JCP.

 

Then you can lodge a formal complaint afterwards to the relevant department.

So I got a reply fairly quickly, and it was a letter detailing all the benefits I've received over the time period I asked. Said nothing about any crisis loans. I ticked the top box on the form because I thought that covered everything, that's how I read it anyway. Followed shortly thereafter by a letter from Akinika.

 

I mean, if they didn't state I received these crisis loans and budgeting loans then can I then deny any liability?

 

What should I do now, that or send them the form again this time ticking the boxes explicitly?

Ticked what box on what form?

 

As already advised, IGNOR nickynacknoo, they can do nothing, they are, it seems, the chose DCA of the DWP, completely powerless, and toothless, ignore them ignore them ignore them.

 

If the SAR does not state any crisis loan, or debt outstanding, then you can either, complain to the DWP and tell them to call off their tame lap dogs as no debt is owing, using their lethargic complaints process,

 

Or, get on with your life, ignore nickynackynoo entirely, and if you do owe anything, then the DWP will, once the pet DCA passes it back to the DWP, will get in touch.

 

Did the DWP ever tell you that you owed anything previously?

 

If they haven't had the full 40 days from receipt of your SAR then wait until the time limit passes, as there may well be more deforestation to come, mine came over a period of three weeks.
