    • Ae - thanks for your interest.  It's quite overwhelming to keep reiterating the background.  I've lived through a lot and put a lot behind me.  There is one property - that has unresolved civil litigation.  It's been subject to lots of litigation - as explained (LH/FH).  I also explained the lender could've sold it immediately.  They chose not to.  The crux of the remaining litigation is focused on the steps they took and why I shouldn't be liable for their failures.  My counterclaim raises issues of criminality.  I'm very tired.  Exhausted with looking backwards.  The trial proceedings are at their end - I am now only trying to figure if I have an alternative angle by way of a separate complaint or claim v receiver AND how I can force a sale before the issue would be dealt with at trial.  (Aside: i'm still considering if I can complain v broker and need to follow up with sra on former lawyer negligence) I'm considering Bazza's comment about fmv - 
    • What is the £3500 debt based on, estimated or actual readings? You may have all been paying an amount each month by direct debit but that may not have covered your usage so you still owe a debt.  If you are joint tenants for the property, all five of you have joint and several liability for any debt owed so you alone can be pursued for the full amount or they can pursue all of you for the full amount.  You need to find out whether or not British Gas has billed you correctly and the amount claimed is correct. 
    • The charging order is a red herring. If the IVA fails because payments are stopped, the IVA practitioner can bankrupt the sister. Depending on the amount of equity in the property, if it's quite high, that's a very likely outcome. Advising the sister to just stop making payments is absolutely terrible advice.
    • Bazza - fair market value is definitely contentious.  Your comment has made me realise I must consider it in detail over the last few years alongside the steps lender/ receiver took. I've made a start
    • could might oh what by a useless restriction k. people should never enter into IVA's in the 1st place 90% goes on their fees. and all the debts are consumer ones too...

    • 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.

We will remember them.

 

When you look at the number of people who died during WW2 on all sides, it is unbelieveable.

 

Military deaths estimated between 22 and 30 million

 

Civilian deaths due to military activity between 19 and 30 million

 

Civilian deaths due to war related famine and disease between 19 and 25 million

 

Overall deaths due to WW2 between 60 and 85 million. So at the minimum end that is about the population of the UK and at the maximum end exceeds the current population of Germany.

 

Makes you think !

We could do with some help from you.

REMEMBER THEM ALL

 

Over the hills and far away

My heart lives in a far distant memory

Thinking of things long past

Seeing the tall ships and flags half mast

Remember all the loved ones lost

Fighting for our freedom is what it cost

Fields of crosses and names unknown

Families bereaved , all waiting alone

Poppies of red, like their blood

Sacrifices made, and was it ever understood ?

Pray for them all and never forget

They died to save us and we never met

Let us remember them one and all

For without them, would we be here at all ?

Take the time to stop and thank them

It didn't matter if they were boys or men

Please be proud of what they have done

And let peace surround us, one by one.

Just watching the news and was touched to see a WWII veteran get out of his wheelchair to shake hands with the Prince of Wales. His determination so typical of his generation. Brought a tear to my eye.

I sometimes think that we celebrate the service of those still alive, but then don't think enough of those that gave their life's to ensure the freedoms currently enjoyed. One of my uncles died serving for the RAF months before the end of the war. There were many thousands who died within years of the war due to injuries sustained. Then there were the civilian casualties due to bombing. How many died in factories that were helping the war effort?

We could do with some help from you.
