    • is the home in joint names but this is solely your debt? need far more history to be able to comment if it's paid off and was not just written of by one partly on their books and sold to anther, thus the cra file says £0. dx
    • So, Sunak has managed to get someone to 'volunteer to go to Rwanda hasn't he? .. for just £3000 payment to the person plus 5 years free board and lodging isnt it? - cost to UK taxpayer over £300M+ (300 million quid+) isnt it? - Bargain says Rwanda, especially with all the profit we made privately selling those luxury chalets Bravermann advertised for us   I wonder how many brits would jump at that offer? Thousands? Hundreds of thousands? Lets see, up to 5 years free board and lodging and £3k in my pocket .. I'd go - and like that person - just come back if/when I get bored. First job - off to Botswana for a week to see the elephants.   Of course the paid volunteers going to Botswana are meaningless - Rwanda have REPEATEDLY said they wont take any forcibly trafficked people in breach of international law eh? Have the poops actually got any civil servants to agree to go yet - probably end up as more massive payments to VIPal contractors to go and sit there doing nowt shortly eh?    
    • Hi Wondered if I could get a little advise please. I entered into a commercial lease (3 years) and within a few months I had to leave as the business I was trading with collapsed. I returned the keys to the landlord and explained the situation and no money, also likely to go on benefits but the landlord stuck to their guns. They have now instructed solicitors to send letter before action claiming just over £4000. The lease was mine and so the debt. I know this. I have emailed the solicitors twice to explain I am out of work and that with help from family I could offer a full and final settlement figure of £1500 or £10pw. This was countered by them with an offer to reduce the debt by £400, or pay off the amount over 12 months. I went back with an improved full and final offer of £2500 or £20pw. This has been rejected with the comment 'papers ready to go to court'. I have no hope of paying the £4000 and so it will have to go to court. Pity as I have no debts otherwise but not working is a killer. I wondered if they take me to court, could I ask for mediation? I also think that taking me to court will result in a pretty much nothing per week payment from my benefits. Are companies just pushing ahead with action even if a better offer is on the table? Thanks for your help.
    • Hi all, Many thanks for the advice! Unfortunately, the reply to the email was as expected…   Starbucks UK Customer Care <[email protected]> Hi xxxxxx, We are sorry to read you received a parking charge after using our Stansted Airport - A120 DT store.

    • 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.

Depends under what circumstances and if your claim has been transferred out of Northampton.

Just an update....forms were received by courts (bailiffs submitted the email copies for me & I posted to be on safe side) Application made to set decision aside and has been accepted by court.

 

Hearing will take place end of July. Have had no further letters or contact from bailiffs thankfully. Am hoping that someone from Cabot will turn up & have to prove who took this debt out and when. Just have to keep fingers crossed for a successful outcome now.

 

Am incredibly grateful for all the time and effort you have all so kindly given to me. I can sleep at night now 😊

You should spend your time making sure you have everything you need to try & prove your case. It could be of course the other side may not turn up. If you do win then would suggest you ask if you can claim your costs back or at the very least the costs of the day.

I have finally got an update on this case. Was due to be heard in court in July but the courts kindly adjourned until today as was hospitalised.

 

Cabot did not send a representative for the first hearing in July, but I was really shocked to discover one sitting in the court when I arrived this morning...wasn't expecting anyone to attend for Cabot.

 

For anyone else in the same position I was in then please don't be afraid of the process, or let anyone intimidate you to back down. The Judge was very nice and made me feel at ease.

 

Cabot's only defence was that they felt I'd not done enough to prove the debt wasn't mine, and that the courts acted illegally by allowing me to file for the set aside because they felt I was filing it to be malicious.

 

I did everything you all advised and took every copy of every letter sent disputing the debt and copy of unanswered SAR. The claimant turned up with a copy of a credit agreement they'd signed themselves and that was it.

 

The judge granted my set aside within minutes of being in the room. The claimant was also after £510 in charges which to the representatives anger was also thrown out. I have filled out the paperwork in case it goes to trial and have also submitted a counterclaim for costs and expenses incurred.

 

A great result and am so happy I had the conviction and courage to go ahead and fight this alleged debt. I had to come back and update because without all the amazing help, time and advice you all gave me then it most likely wouldn't even have got to the N244 stage.

 

Without you guys I would never have had a clue how to deal with this situation. You gave me the tools to win this case and I can't even begin to say how grateful I am for all your kindness. I truly would have been lost and £745 poorer. I will be making a donation to the site as a way of showing my gratitude.

 

I have two weeks to submit my defence paperwork in case it goes to trial. Cabot I adamant I have no hope of winning but the Judge told her that he'd be surprised if I didn't. Can progress with this with confidence now. Thank you Thank you Thank you 😊

Well done! Yes, always come back and update the threads. Although it's really helpful to others fighting claims similar to yours, it's also courteous to those who gave up their valuable time to help, and the successes let those individuals know that the time spent on helping was not wasted.

The claimant turned up with a copy of a credit agreement they'd signed themselves and that was it.

Yes, the solicitor representing Cabot bought in a wad of papers that included letters sent demanding payments, a photocopy of a credit agreement that they had filled all my details in on and signed, but it wasn't dated. I have a copy of this.

 

They also had a piece of paper with an excel style table on it filled in with items allegedly purchased, but with no details of where these goods were sent, no delivery reciepts/signatures, no details of any payments made on this account so that I could trace the perpetrator.

 

It looked like it had been printed up the night before. I had requested on 4 occasions all info relating to the debt but they never provided any. The first hearing in July to which they didn't attend and was adjourned, they presented no info at all. The documents they had Monday were submitted to the court 3 days prior, and that was because the Judge demanded the info I requested be sent. I got a copy of the details of what happened at adjourned case. It felt very much like they'd deliberately not been forthcoming knowing full well it would drop them in it.

 

I expected them to turn up fully armed which would have helped clear my name. Cabots solicitor spoke to me before going in and I asked her if she had the more specific account info so it could be determined if it was linked to the fraud on my account. She informed me Cabot never keep that kind of info on file due to security issues.

 

The Judge gave her a severe dressing down for the "inadequate preparation of the case" I have copies of all the papers along with around 50 pages of examples of legal cases where judges had made errors, that the solicitor had attached relevant to granting set asides. Not sure the approach of questioning the judges legal capacity went down too well.

 

I am expecting fully they will continue it to trial, but also fully confident they will not be successful with this. The trainee solicitor who prepared all of Cabots paperwork for court was a Laura Hannam of DrysdenFairfax
