    • Northmonk forget what I said about your Notice to Hirer being the best I have seen . Though it  still may be  it is not good enough to comply with PoFA. Before looking at the NTH, we can look at the original Notice to Keeper. That is not compliant. First the period of parking as sated on their PCN is not actually the period of parking but a misstatement  since it is only the arrival and departure times of your vehicle. The parking period  is exactly that -ie the time youwere actually parked in a parking spot.  If you have to drive around to find a place to park the act of driving means that you couldn't have been parked at the same time. Likewise when you left the parking place and drove to the exit that could not be describes as parking either. So the first fail is  failing to specify the parking period. Section9 [2][a] In S9[2][f] the Act states  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Your PCN fails to mention the words in parentheses despite Section 9 [2]starting by saying "The notice must—..." As the Notice to Keeper fails to comply with the Act,  it follows that the Notice to Hirer cannot be pursued as they couldn't get the NTH compliant. Even if the the NTH was adjudged  as not  being affected by the non compliance of the NTK, the Notice to Hirer is itself not compliant with the Act. Once again the PCN fails to get the parking period correct. That alone is enough to have the claim dismissed as the PCN fails to comply with PoFA. Second S14 [5] states " (5)The notice to Hirer must— (a)inform the hirer that by virtue of this paragraph any unpaid parking charges (being parking charges specified in the notice to keeper) may be recovered from the hirer; ON their NTH , NPE claim "The driver of the above vehicle is liable ........" when the driver is not liable at all, only the hirer is liable. The driver and the hirer may be different people, but with a NTH, only the hirer is liable so to demand the driver pay the charge  fails to comply with PoFA and so the NPE claim must fail. I seem to remember that you have confirmed you received a copy of the original PCN sent to  the Hire company plus copies of the contract you have with the Hire company and the agreement that you are responsible for breaches of the Law etc. If not then you can add those fails too.

    • I understand what you mean. But consider that part of the problem, and the frustration of those trying to help, is the way that questions are asked without context and without straight facts. A lot of effort was wasted discussing as a consumer issue before it was mentioned that the property was BTL. I don't think we have your history with this property. Were you the freehold owner prior to this split? Did you buy the leasehold of one half? From a family member? How was that funded (earlier loan?). How long ago was it split? Have either of the leasehold halves changed hands since? I'm wondering if the split and the leashold/freehold arrangements were set up in a way that was OK when everyone was everyone was connected. But a way that makes the leasehold virtually unsaleable to an unrelated party.
    • quite honestly id email shiply CEO with that crime ref number and state you will be taking this to court, for the full sum of your losses, if it is not resolved ASAP. should that be necessary then i WILL be naming Shiply as the defendant. this can be avoided should the information upon whom the courier was and their current new company contact details, as the present is simply LONDON VIRTUAL OFFICES  is a company registered there and there's a bunch of other invisible companies so clearly just a mail address

    • 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 posted my claim to Salford; didn't do it online. C have not replied at all. They never replied to any letters, just sent default letters and dca threats. The court advised the date of service and the date they should reply and that is almost up. Nothing yet.

I will check on-line - if poss - to see the status... I guess I just input the claim number, yes?

I don't seem to be able to see the claim on the mcol website. I guess because I posted rather than served online?

 

Sorry didn't see your post andy !!

 

The Notice of Issue had a dotted line and Request for Judgment - so I guess I fill in and send back to the courts (and keep a photocopy). Hoping they fail to reply in time ;-)

 

Going forward - if they do surprise me with a defence, would a hearing have to be in their local court? Or can I ask to have hearing in my local court?

No at yours as you are the Litigant Claimant.

I hope I have done this right? C failed to respond by the due date the court set. No acknowledgement and no defence. Nothing.

So I simply cut on the dotted line on the Issue sheet.

I worked out the 8% stat interest from date of claim to now (using the 8% stat spreadsheet), added that % on to the total, plus the court fee and cme to a grand total. Then I ran to the post office and returned the Judgment claim to Salford (have receipt).

 

 

How long does it take for the court to issue Judgment against a company?

 

 

Are they likely to now write to the court and try to get Judgment set aside - with an excuse that they were too busy or the post messed up their timing?

 

 

Not sure what to think??!!

All correct......cant give you a turn around time......any successful default judgment or normal judgments are always open to the defendant to set a side...its whether they have sufficient grounds to make that application.

I'm a little bemused that C would not bother to reply. Is this pretty normal behaviour for such a large company as C ???

 

 

With this company yes. Keep at it and let us know how things go and how you resolved this please...

If I have been of any help, please click on my star and leave a note to let me know, thank you.

Yikes

C filed a defence straight to the court.

I have been notified by Salford that Acknowledgement of Service has been filed.

The post must be really slow as that was already 10 days ago.

Which gives C not long now to file a defence.

I'm not sure if they have 28 days from my Claim? (maybe 1w left) Or 28 days from their acknowledgment?

 

So what do I now need to do in the meantime?

And how are they likely to defend?

 

 

What happens next?

 

ps - in the meantime Cs dca is still sending me letters. Just received a monthly instalment offer.

I didn't think they could send out such letters whilst an account is in dispute?

Hi Mum,

 

You should assume they'll defend the claim. They have 14 days from the date of service to acknowledge, then a further 14 days to file their defence.

 

Focus on the court claim for now, not the current demands.

Ok Slick.

So assuming c preps a full defence over the next week - What should I be doing?

Should I be preparing any docs?

As and when they file a defence - does the court send me their defence or does C send me their defence?

And then what am I supposed to do?

Getting a bit nervous now !!

And then what am I supposed to do? Decide if you wish to proceed and allocate the claim

Getting a bit nervous now !!

Assuming defence filed and I wish to proceed - what does allocate the claim mean?

 

Does it mean it gets sent to my local court?

 

And is there still time for C & me to discuss acceptable settlement terms ?

(this is actually the first response I have had from C in more than 6 months of letter writing

...so maybe they will wish to settle before court hearing, yes/no?)

 

How long does it normally take from whatever allocating the claim means?

Thanks Andy

Assuming defence filed and I wish to proceed - what does allocate the claim mean? You inform the court you wish to proceed and they will issue Directions Questionnaire which transfers it to your local County Court...you can respond to the defence if you wish...but do not have to.

 

Does it mean it gets sent to my local court? Yes see above

And is there still time for C & me to discuss acceptable settlement terms ? Yes the DQ will ask if you are prepared to mediate

(this is actually the first response I have had from C in more than 6 months of letter writing

...so maybe they will wish to settle before court hearing, yes/no?) See what happens and if they opt for mediation

 

How long does it normally take from whatever allocating the claim means?

2/3 weeks after submitting the DQ

I am in receipt of C's defence.

I will post up later.

But they have refuted all my arguments.

They also don't accept claim beyond 6y - say they are statute barred and I have given no evidence of only just realising I can claim back further and state that Kleinwort v Benson is irrelevant.

They say I have failed to demonstrate why Sempra v inland Rev should be relevant

They say they are not liable for restitution interest

They wont remove any adverse credit

they say I am wrong to call them a "bank"

they say I should be put to strict proof in respect of every aspect of my claim

They say it is my fault I incurred charges if I paid late

 

 

Is this a normal response to such a claim?

But nervous now...
