    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. 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. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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.

Hi this is my friend wantiing to know if anyone could help.

 

will start with i was referred to this seasonal place few weeks ago as the job centre didn't have much info so i went forward for it because the employer would contact me to disscus more about the things i would be doing if i was to take up the offer and i was told by my adviser that my money would not be stopped even if i have been giving a refer letter as this is just for few weeks work experience and was told there would be a jobs going at the end of it. and it was my choice that if i didn't wanna do it then that was cool i would be fine and nothing would happen after i had a chat with the employer,

 

so i had a chat with the employer and after been on the phone for a good bit of time i just fought it was not for me and the employer said that was fine so i told my adviser and let them know that i didn't want to go forward anymore for it.

 

so now all of a sudden i spoke to this other adviser that was taking me instead the other day told me that now my case was been refer to the sanction decison makers because i turned the otfer down after been refer to it and but i am confused as work experience even if offer to you by adviser voluntry to take it or not?

 

i have not heard anything back yet since i was told that my case was been checked my the makers.

 

would anyone be help to give me help and advice on what to do?

First of all it would be helpful to know if you are under the age of 25 or over the age of 25 and how long you have been claiming JSA . Secondly you would have been given given a letter after your adviser said they were referring you does your paperwork state that this is a mandatory work activity and you may be sanctioned if you do not attend? There are various schemes available for the unemployed most are compulsory

yeh he is under the age of 25 and he has been claming over over 3 years been work work programme etc, he was giving a letter with the job detail and all it says on the letter is referred to this work experience but no other detail on the letter that says not taking up this would result in a sanction and no mention of it other than stuff like start date and end date but he was told to ignore that it was just something that comes up on the letter.

 

yeh a know there is different rules for different schemes.

Although Work Experience is voluntary to join it becomes compulsory once you have accepted a place. Where the problem lies is whether in explaining this to your friend the adviser stated that a referral was the equivalent of your friend accepting a place or not. Work Experience programme is from two to eight weeks. As your friend has completed the work programme the jobcentre can take actions to intensify his jobsearch via the Help To Work Scheme. If he does get a sanction then he can appeal this.

Your friend could try and prepare himself just in case that adviser wasn't bluffing.

 

He might get in touch with the employer he chatted to on the phone and ask him to write a letter out for him, or send one to his DWP contact, stating that he was contacted by your friend, that your friend did not turn any offer down since no offer was made, because, after discussing what the placement involved, they both agreed that it, and any permanent job stemming from it, was unsuitable for your friend.

 

He might also write to his JCP manager explaining what had transpired and that the adviser who actually dealt with the referral was satisfied with that explanation/report at the time. The adviser dealing with the referral should also be able to confirm your friend's version of events to this other adviser.

 

It's hard to believe that both advisers did not have a discussion about this before a sanction doubt was raised with a Decision Maker. Very peculiar?

With Work Experience you are entitled to the NMW there or 3 exemptions to that rule and there or 1) If you volunteer 2) if you work as an shadow worker ( following a worker around but you don't do any work yourself). 3) If you or on a government scheme such as WP.

part from that you or entitled to the NMW if the employer refuses to pay you NMW then just walk away as he is breaking the law.
