    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.
    • i think theres been MORE than amble evidence of that and am astonished that criminal proceedings haven't begun.
    • Yep, those 'requirements' not met to shareholders satisfaction seem to me to be: 1. Not being allowed to increase customer bills by 40% (of which well over 50% of the new total would NOT be investment) 2. 1 plus regulators not agreeing to letting them do 'things in their own time (ie carry on regardless)
    • As already mentioned freely available "credit scores" are fairly useless. All lenders have their own "credit scoring" system, that for obvious reasons they don't divulge. And they're "scored" differently to the freely available ones. As soon as they could, we've always encouraged our two children to use credit cards responsibly... Pay off in full, etc, to generate good history. It's paid off. At quite young ages, they have both obtained loans for cars, mortgage and their credit card limits are through the roof. Personally, I have shifted debt around a lot on credit cards (even financed a house purchase once at 0% 😉) and I've only ever been refused a credit card once, sorry twice by the same company, over many years. They must have something very different in their lending criteria. You're a tight one, Mr Branson.

    • 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.

Hello there,

 

Just to update you that the mediation didn't happen.

The person doing the mediation called me and said I've already previously had mediation which was left with nothing agreed.

They dont normal offer mediation twice, so to get other people through on the phone, its best to carry on through to the courts.

 

I will upload the witness statement

Hello There,

 

Been reading up on some cases similar to mine, and i feel a little worried.

If Im being honest, I've buried my head in the sand thinking this will all go away soon.

 

Not sure how firm my case will stand up in court tbh.

 

Just wanted to also check that i am working to 14 working days before my actual court date right?

 

If the judge doesn't agree with my defence, does that mean that i will be issued with a CCJ and have to pay the claimants court fees?

 

Sorry bout this, just voicing my thought out here

@DX100UK Noted

 

Received a Tomlin order from Lowell. Why would they send something like this prior to the court date? i this to shut me up? the court cannot regulate this is i sign to pay for everything.

 

I also noted that they have a sceenshot dated 2017 which has the address that i was staying at, at the time the default notice ws posted out to a previous address that i didn't stay at. furthermore on the CCA it has my parents address on it.

 

Is the screen shot the deeds of assignment, which i have been told by Lowell "wont be sent to me, as its a confidential agreement between client and original creditor containing information which i am not entitled to see.

 

is it true that if a ccj is paid withing a moth, that its removed from your files altogether?

why would they send this...well think about it...

they are begging you to agree to pay 'something' as they probably do not hold all the required paperwork to successfully litigate and win...##

I've been searching high and low looking for proof of postage for the letters sent but cannot find these.

i will have to rely on recent correspondence going back to 2017 where i requested information under cpr 31 .

 

I am also unsure how or what evidence i have to produce on the day.

Hello there,

 

Please have a look at my witness statement below, is this ok?

I know its rather jumbled up eek!!

not sure if have the terminology correct in parts, I may have rumbled on slightly

 

I've found 6 different letter covering 2013 + 2014 which were sent to my parents address.

I will call the courts tomorrow to see if they had made the payment.

Is it best to get the statement to them on Monday (my 14th day) or Friday?

 

I also contact them via email to put forward a £200 odd full and final settlement, can i include this in the statement?

 

I make this statement in support of my defence to the claim above and rely on the exhibits attached.

 

This claim is for a Home Shopping agreement regulated by the consumer credit Act 1974 between the Defendant and Shop Direct Finance Company Limited under account reference +++++++++

.

It is admitted that I have held a catalogue account a number of years ago which I used to purchase some goods.

 

After some time, I questioned whether PPI was ever applied to my account.

I didn’t get a response from the original creditor and withheld any further payments until this could be resolved.

 

Since August 2011 I do not recall using the catalogue again at all, in fact I believed the account was closed.

 

In 2013 I begun to receive letters at my parent address on a monthly basis along with 2 visits from bailiffs sent by “Lowell Portfolio 1” pursuing my mother for the alleged debt.

 

In response to these letters, I requested under section 78.1 of the Consumer Credit Act, and paid the £1 fee via postal order for a copy of the credit agreement and statement of account, at the same time I also informed them of my current residential address, as the letters and bailiffs visits were causing harassment to my mother. Whom at the time was a full time carer to my father who was suffering terribly with dementia and prostate cancer

 

The claimant responded 25.02.2014 to inform me that they had not received a copy of the agreement from Shop Direct, as Shop Direct were trying to receive this from their archives (Exhibit A)

 

I am unaware of any outstanding balance and nor do I recall being contacted by the original creditors, nor have I been issued with a default notice pursuant to section 87 (1) CCA 1974.

 

I therefore cannot make any admittance to any alleged debt.

 

On the 23rd December 2016, in response to the particulars of claim served upon me, for more clarity on the matter I made a request under section 78.1 of the Consumer Credit Act, and paid the £1 fee via postal order for a copy of the credit agreement and statement of account.

 

I also made a CPR 31.14 request to the claimant’s solicitor 23rd December 2016, which was also received.

 

I enquired for information including:

 

1 Agreement/contract

2 Notice of assignment

3 Default warning letter

4 Default notice

5 Information statement of Account relating to the accrue of charges and interest

 

The claimant and its solicitors partially complied to my requests and sent the following which are deemed non viale:

1. Reconstituted agreement

2. Notice of assignment – I did not receive, as this was sent to a previous address I lived at

3. Default warning letter: I did not receive one

4. Information statement of account: screenshot without

5. Notice of assignment: I did not receive one

They have not sent any related documentation clarifying or proving the alleged debt, and therefore defaulted payments, or service of default notice.

 

The claimant have not been able to clarify by way of an itemised list how the alleged balance was derived and the legality of the charges applied to the said balance. The claimant has not in any way proven the existence of the alleged debt.

 

Notwithstanding the above the claimant remains in breach of the 12 day response period under Section 78.6, therefore the claimant is unable to request any relief until such time they can comply

 

It is therefore contended that there is no outstanding balance nor as the claimant been able to produce any documentation to prove otherwise and I therefore respectfully request that the court dismiss this claim and award costs it feel fit in defending this matter.

 

STATEMENT OF TRUTH

 

The contents of my statement are true to the best of my knowledge and belief.

 

Signed

 

Dated this day……………………..2018
