    • Well I sent them the letter of claim, the only responses so far was a few emails reopening the claims on the parcels where they asked for information such as proof of value (which I get) but other things like photos of the parcels, which I haven't got as I never took photos of them. It's been well over the 14 days since I sent the letter now anyway, so what do you think I should do now?
    • Know it has already been answered, but? Does not explain why JCI has registered a different default date when they get the information from the original creditor, Virgin
    • Since you were stopped at the time there is no requirement for the police give you anything there and then or to send you anything before they have decided how to deal with the offence.  They have three choices: Offer you a course Offer you a fixed penalty (£100 and three points) Prosecute you in court  The only option that has a formal time limit is (3). They must begin court proceedings within six months of the date of the alleged offence. Options (1) and (2) have no time limit but since the only alternative the police have if you decline those offers is (3) they will not usually offer a course beyond three months from the date of the offence and will not usually offer a fixed penalty beyond four months from that date. This is so as to allow time for the driver to accept and comply with their offer and to give them the time to go to option (3) if he declines or ignores it.  Unless there is a good reason to do otherwise, the action they take will usually be in accordance with the National Police Chiefs' Council's guidance on speeding enforcement. In a 40mph limit this is as follows Up to 45mph - no action. Between 46mph and 53mph - offer a course Between 54mph and 65mph - offer a fixed penalty Over 65mph - prosecution in court So you can see that 54mph should see you offered a fixed penalty. Three weeks is not overly long for a fixed penalty offer to arrive. As well as that, there has been Easter in that period which will have slowed things down a bit. However, I would suggest that if it gets to about two months from the offence date and you have still heard nohing, I would contact the ticket office for the area where you were stopped to see if anything has been sent to you. Of course this raises the danger that you might be "stirring the hornets' nest". But in all honesty, if the police have decided to take no action, you jogging their memory should not really influence them. The bigger danger, IMHO, is that your fixed penalty offer may have been sent but lost and if you do not respond it will lapse. This will see the police revert to option (3) above. Whilst there is a mechanism in these circumstances  to persuade the court to sentence you at the fixed penalty level (rather than in accordance with the normal guidelines which will see a harsher penalty), it relies on them believing you when you say you did not received an offer. In any case it is aggravation you could well do without so for the sake of a phone call, I'd enquire if it was me.  I think I've answered all your questions but if I can help further just let me know. Just a tip - if you are offered a fixed penalty be sure to submit your driving licence details as instructed. I've seen lots of instances where a driver has not done this. There will be no reminder and no second chance; your £100 will be refunded and the police will prosecute you through the courts.

    • 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.

Safeloans like to do court, they are just across the road from Croydon Court so there are minimal charges for them for using court. The charges and interest need looking at.

 

I would also add that the description of the account is inaccurate - it is NOT a drawdown, it is a PAYDAY LOAN repayable 30 days after the money has reached the account, and, as such, already carries a high rate of interest. That should be your first rebuttal of their claim against you.

Looks ok to me.......PDL claims never get past the defence stage and usually leave it stayed or discontinue so its difficult to advise on how they may challenge your defence.

 

I suppose the first question that may be asked .....If the proceed

 

" Was you aware and did you agree that the total loan would equate to £300? "

 

And what the court will think when they see the following particulars....

 

1. THE AMOUNT £175.00 - LOAN AMOUNT.

2. LOAN CHARGES / INTEREST £290.56.

3. THE CLAIMANT TOTAL CLAIM IS £465.56.

I haven't sent one, I'm thinking if they look into the file, they may see that they don't have a CCJ like they think they do and then apply for default judgement, while I'm waiting for the CCA to come back.

 

Having sadi that they have ignored every email I have sent them in the past

The normal procedure within the process...acknowledge claim......14 days submit defence......claimant has 28 days to decide if they wish to to proceed to allocation...or the claim is stayed.

 

Yours has been stayed since they submitted the claim ...not requested default judgment ...not done anything.

 

Now that you have submitted a defence ...as the claimant does not appear interested....the court will not prompt them and leave it stayed.(6 month rule)

 

So in effect nothing in reality as changed except...because you have submitted a defence...they can not proceed to judgment.

  • 2 weeks later...

It seems odd to send a WS when you haven't even had any notice from the court about the claim proceeding, allocation questionnaire, directions, etc.

 

Any chance you could scan them and post them up - minus any identifiable data?

 

It sounds like it's a stab in the dark and hoping it scares you into paying them something rather than proceed.

Thanks Matt. I've had a skim over it but will look again later to see what anomalies I can spot. Andyorch will be your friend on this and he should be able to give you a quite quick assessment of the state of play.

 

Assuming this proceeds, my first point of focus would be to make them show how the claimed balance was arrived at. There's a few iffy looking charges within the terms and then interest on top. Also, was a default notice ever given to you?

Do these muppets even have a clue about court procedure.

 

 

Is the unsealed "Reference only" claim form identical to the original.

 

 

If the claim was issued 09/07/12 and they never bothered to obtain judgment in default,

I don't think any Judge is going to be impressed by their correspondence dated 07/08/12

where they are clearly trying to mislead you into thinking you already have a CCJ

and the [naughty word] about enforcement action and AoE order will be requested at your local court on 21/08/12 if it's not paid!

 

 

The claim has been stayed since Jan 13 because of their stupidity of failing to obtain default judgment

- which they are now unable to since you got in first with a defence.

 

 

The [naughty word] about not obtaing judgment sooner because they wanted to be lenient with you just shows what clueless muppets they are.

 

 

WTF is their witness statement all about anyway.

If they think your claim is vexatious and want the judge to throw out your defence

they should go through the proper channel and submit an app for summary judgement.

 

 

I don't think I would be losing too much sleep over these numpties.

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...
