    • hi all, i will list my curmcumstance first then list the details of the penalty charge - we are 2 diabled people being affected by the cost of living crisis and are skint etc. i am disabled with mobility issues(arthritis in knees and ankles and gout) and cant operate car pedals anymore so i let a friend up the road use my car in exchange for her driving me about. its a good arrangement as i get a 'chauffer' and she gets the use of car. the car is parked in her drive which is better as i was refused a disabled space (even on appeal) and too much congestion to park the car outside my house. my friend is vulnerable as she has suffered depression and suicidal thoughts since the loss of her mother a few years back, she is dyslexic, she is a carer for one of her sons that is disabled due to mental illness and mobility. she lives in a council house and cannot work. we went to iceland ..attracted by the 10items for £10 offer - we've never been there before. a large artic lorry was parked accross the car park blocking the view of one of the parking signs and blocking the disabled bays where the pay&display machine is. by the time she helped me out of the car and then went to see if it was pay&display then came back to me at the car she said she thinks it was pay even for disabled, so we looked for change in the car which we didnt have (she normally goes asda which dont need to pay for parking)so then we said we'd either go get change or go to asda...so then by the time it took her to help me back in and get out the car park took 15 minutes...5 minutes overstay past the 10minutes grace. the letter from excel parking came through and i sent it back giving her name as driver (before i saw on here that you shouldnt name the driver) then i appealed explaining what happened (lorry blocking etc) and even said we were being descriminated (advised by citizen advice)as we are disabled and 15minutes is not long enough for a crippled disabled man and a woman with dyslexia to read and understandd the sign and get out, then back in the car and look for change then get out the car park in 15minutes. i even explained she was a vulnerable person on anti-depressants and even sent a photo of medication and said if you need a doctors note then let me know....the appeal was rejected. i've emailed iceland over 50 times and they just wont tell excel to cancel this charge - they are ignorant and ive even asked them why they have a webpage saying 'iceland combatting the cost of living crisis' pretending to help their customers and they wont comment...they'd rather put more stress and anxiety on an already suicidal vulnerable person just to get money out of them..so their 'help' during this crisis is a lie as it wont even extend to disabled customers. she has now received 2 letters from DCBL saying she owes £170 for 5minutes of overstay. the last one is a final demand. as she cant read or write very well ive sent a recorded letter to DCBL (as advised by citizen advice) asking not to attend the property due to a vulnerable woman inside the property as it will only exasperate the situation, they have ignored it and basically said we dont care, you still owe. could anyone please advise - we are not very good with letters or these situations and are slow on the uptake.   1 The date of infringement? 28th dec 2023   2 Have you yet appealed to the parking company yet? [Y/N?] yes   If you have then please post up whatever you sent and how you sent it and the date you sent it, suitably redacted. [as a PDF- follow the upload guide]cant do that - will have to get my son to do it when he visits   Has there been a response? yes   Please AS A PDF FILE  ONLY ..post it up as well, suitably redacted. - follow the upload guide]cant do that - will have to get my son to do it when he visits   If you haven't appealed yet - .........DONT ! seek advice on your topic first.   Have you received a Notice To Keeper? (NTK) [must be received by you between 29-56 days] yes   What date is on it? 15th january 2024   Did the NTK provide photographic evidence? yes   [scan up BOTHSIDES to ONE PDF of the PCN and your NTK - follow the upload guide] please LEAVE IN LOCATION AND ALL DATES/TIMES/£'scant do that - will have to get my son to do it when he visits   3 Did the NTK mention Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 (PoFA) [Y/N?] not on the front - maybe on the back but cannot find the letter now   4 If you appealed after receiving the NTK, did the parking company give you any information regarding the further appeals process? [it is well known that parking companies will reject any appeal whatever the circumstances] yes   5 Who is the parking company? excel   6. Where exactly [Carpark name and town] did you park? gravesend in iceland    
    • Hi Dave, I had no updates on this PCN since my last post in July 2019.  I received no further communications from the parking company.  I changed my address in May 2022. Thanks, I will send a letter to Excel parking to inform about the change in the address. 
    • I have a BMW Advanced Car Eye 3 Pro - I think it's 50/50  In any case, none of the documents / photos sent in the SAR showed a ticket on the car. 
    • I've seen on your other thread that you say you moved in 2022. It is essential you tell the parking company about your new address. Every couple of months or so we get someone here who moves, doesn't tell the other party they're in dispute with, court papers turn up at the old address, the Cagger doesn't know anything about this and doesn't defend, they lose by default - and end up with a backdoor CCJ. So get a quick letter off to Excel - Dear Simple Simon, Re: PCN no.XXXXX will you please note that I no longer live at XXXXX and that my new address is XXXXX. Yours, XXXXX Invest in a 2nd class stamp and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yeah thanks guys - I'm just going to ignore them now.  Can't be ar$ed digging around in the loft!  Can I still send them a notice not to send people to our door?   I know we did 10 years ago but not sure if that's still a "thing"!

    • 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.

Any agreement before 2007 has to have the original document produced in court for them to win any judgement against you.

 

As your account was from 2005, they would need to produce the original agreement in a court.

Thanks for clearing that up for me DX, it was just a confusing day all round.

 

I havent CCA'd them or the other creditors beyond what was done 6 years ago to the original creditor,

I have never acknowledged lowell or any DCA.

 

 

Reading around the forums they seem to have an agenda of trying one last ditch attempt - at any costs

- to try and get CCJ's against the people in question, just before 6 years from default date.

 

I wont be bullied, regardless of how worried I am for my family. And that is all these people are is bullies.

 

Thanks for all your advice and help to date.

 

Bobby.

The plot thickens...

 

After speaking with CAP1 to get the final payment date, they have told me that the last payment was made Feb 2010...even though I know for a fact that the lat payment I made on the account was August 2009.

 

When pushed, they couldnt confirm the date of the previous payment to this.

 

So have they held back one of my postal orders/cheques and cashed it to the account at this later date? Is that allowed?

 

This would then give them an opportunity to delay the 6 years SB rule by nearly another 6 months.

 

They also refused to discuss the account and told me to call Lowell, which I wont do as I have never acknowledged.

 

They also confirmed the account is still with collections in CAP 1 and is still showing on their systems as an active account - so how has it been assigned to Lowell?

 

Sounds like a load of hogwash to me.

 

Also the assignment date they have confirmed is different from that on the court papers which Lowell have sent.

If you spoke to them over the phone, without recording it, then you should ignore the whole conversation.

 

You really MUST keep everything in writing, you need a paper trail of evidence.

Apparently they have the agreement, signed and everything - was told that on the phone. They are going to send it to me.

 

Just wondering why it was never sent as a response to all of those CCA requests, SAR, etc I done way back when...

Well I have well and truely fluffed this one, apologies everyone.

 

A response has just been found from CAP 1 with a signed 'agreement', but on reading it sounds like an application form.

 

I have posted this up for you all to view. Sorry for any confusion, I literally have just found this and I am digging through a years worth of docs for a whole host of creditors.

 

 

 

Where do I stand now? Thanks.

Sorry - how best do I post these things up for future reference DX?

 

So an application form cant be enforced as an 'agreement'? So what you said before still stands is that correct? Thanks

you didn't do anything 'wrong'

but ofcourse you don't want that downloaded

and used by the claimant against you do you...think about it...

 

 

as said, it matters not what you might hold

what the original creditor might hold

 

 

its for the CLAIMANT to produce that documents they intend to use to try and fleece you.

 

 

they haven't, the CCA request is still outstanding.?

you did send one?

Thanks DX.

 

Yes, I have sent the CCA to Lowell and the CPR 31.14 to the solicitors.

 

Surely if CAP 1 have that document that you removed, it will be quite easy for lowell to be able to get a copy of this to use as evidence?

then why have they not done so to date

I'd wait.

 

 

doesn't mean its enforceable either

 

 

there are numerous cases here of cap1 applications forms being non enforceable because of dodgy / wrong T&C's.

Im going to acknowledge this online but I meant to ask,

 

 

why do I not counterclaim at this stage for the ppi and charges they added?

 

 

It asks me do I want to counterclaim and with me not going down the SB route then am I not doing myself an injustice

by not making them aware from the outset (and properly through the courts) that this isn't as straightforward as them suing me?

you should have ack'd it already

Hi all,

 

For reasons I won't go into online I have been unable to file my defense as yet. My dates are also incorrect (I was afraid someone was watching). This has now confused me and I think I'm right at the edge of time frame for filing.

 

I've logged into mcol and I can still file my defense but I don't know how long I've got left.

 

Can someone advise please - actual issue date was 19th May.

 

If I work on defense now could somebody review to make sure I'm ok?

 

Thanks x

POC

1.THE CLAIMANTS CLAIM IS FOR THE SUM OF XXXX.XX BEING MONIES DUE FROM THE DEFENDANT

TO THE CLAIMANT UNDER AN AGREEMENT REGULATED BY THE consumer creditlink3.gif ACT 1974

BETWEEN THE DEFENDANT Capital Onelink3.gif

2. UNDER ACCOUNT REFERENCE XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX AND ASSIGNED TO THE CLAIMANT ON XX/XX/XXXX NOTICE OF WHICH HAS BEEN GIVEN TO THE DEFENDANT.

3.THE DEFENDANT FAILED TO MAINTAIN CONTRACTUAL REPAYMENT UNDER THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT

AND A DEFAULT NOTICE HAS BEEN SERVED WHICH HAS NOT BEEN COMPLIED WITH.

3. AND THE CLAIMANT CLAIMS XXXX.XX THE CLAIMANT ALSO CLAIMS STATUTORY INTEREST PURSUANT TO S.69 OF THE COUNTY ACT 1984 AT A RATE OF 8% PER ANNUM FROM THE DATE OF ASSIGNMENT OF THE AGREEMENT TO DATE BUT LIMITED TO A MAXIMUM OF ONE YEAR AND A MAXIMUM OF 1000 AMOUNTING TO XXX.XX

 

DEFENCE

 

 

The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.

 

1.Paragraph 1 is denied regarding the Defendant owing any monies to the claimant. The claimant has failed to provide any evidence of agreement/contract/breach as requested by CPR 31.14 and a Section 78 request. The Claimant remains in breach of the sec78 request pursuant to the CCA1974.

 

 

 

2. Paragraph 2 is denied. the Defendant has no knowledge of any legal assignment, having never been served any Notice of Assignment from either the original creditor or the claimant pursuant to the Law of Property Act 1925.

 

3. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant has never been served a Default Notice pursuant to the CCA1974 .

 

4. It is therefore not accepted with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant and with the Court’s permission, the Claimant is put to strict proof to:

 

a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement with the Claimant; and

b) show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for; and

c) evidence any nature of breach and provide proof of any Default Notice and Notices of Sums in Arrears; and

d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim;

 

5. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of section 136 of the Law of Property Act and section 82A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

6. By reason of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
