    • T911, Nick, thanks, I got there in the end! Without boring you with the details, it is precisely the most ridiculous cases that end up being lost - because the Cagger knows the other party's case is rubbish so doesn't do the necessary work on their own case. G24 are well aware of double dipping.  They have either done it deliberately or else have cameras which can't handle multiple visits to the car park which G24 happily leave malfunctioning so the £££££ keep rolling in. Sadly most people aren't like you.  I've just read various reviews for the Retail Park on TripAdvisor and Parkopedia.  Virtually all of them are complaining about these unfair charges for daring to spend time & money shopping in a shopping centre.  Yet no-one is refusing to pay.  They moan but think they have been fined and cough up. G24 are unlikely to do court, but it's not impossible with two tickets. Try to get evidence that you were elsewhere at these times. Often retail parks will intervene, but I've Googled & Googled and cannot find an e-mail address for the place.  Could the manager of one of your favourite shops give you a contact e-mail address for the company that run the retail park? Right at the moment I'm supposed to be teaching someone who runs two shops at the local shopping centre, but I'm not as he has had to go to a meeting with the company that runs the shopping centre, so I know for a fact that these business relationships exist!!!
    • Afternoon DX, The files were in date order. How would I put them into an acceptable format? I'm not that pc literate.  
    • I think you need to tell us what actually happened. Your original post gives the impression that you were taken to court for a speeding offence. But you go on to say that you received no paperwork. So you could not have been summonsed for a speeding offence because the police had no evidence that you (or anybody else) was driving (and it seems you were not anyway). You were probably summonsed (or more likely received a Single Justice Procedure Notice) for "failing to provide the driver's details." You would not normally be banned for this offence if you were convicted - it carries six points. So did you have any earlier points which meant you were liable to a "totting up" ban?  If you were originally convicted (as it seems you might have been) how was that conviction set aside? Did you perform a Statutory Declaration? There is simply too much missing for any meaningful help to be given. It seems as if there may have been an error by the DVLA but before you consider suing those idiots until the cows come home, you need to explain exactly what has happened.

    • 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.

Thanks Ford, Andy.

 

I've completed and printed form N181 as outlined above following your feedback and it's ready to go.

 

Question: In both D2. and D4. I have written "Please see section I - Further Information." and included the details there, as both D2. and D4. entry boxes are so small that I cannot fit all the listed info inside. I assume this is okay?

 

Can I please double-check that I do not need to do anything regarding directions?

 

The letter states "You must... c) file propose directions (whether or not agreed) with the Directions Questionnaire." and form N181 states "Whether agreed or not a draft of the order for directions which you seek must accompany this form." In addition, under D2. Track, it states "If you have indicated in the proposed directions a track..."

 

I'd just like to be 100% certain that once I have sent this pack without directions, I have no further obligations to the court until I next hear from them.

 

Thanks again for your input.

Well I assume that you have not been approached by the claimant re Directions...and therefore it looks like both parties are opting for SCT.

 

Simply submit it to the court now and a copy to the claimants Sols...if the court disagree re the track they will advise and further request agreed directions.

Received a letter from CCBC today (18th July) , but it is dated 9th July! A bit worried, your advice appreciated.

 

Quite a lot in it, but it seems it is just a copy to me of a letter sent to the claimant saying they have 7 days to file the directions questionnaire. But it also says there are only 7 days to have the order set aside, stayed etc.

 

Do I have to take any action?

 

Extracts below...

 

"General Form of Judgement or Order...

 

The claimant, you have been sent Notice N149A, B or C which specified...the date by which you were to return the Directions Questionnaire. You have failed to file the Directions Questionnaire with the CCBC by the date specified in form N149.

 

IT IS ORDERED THAT

 

The claimant must file the directions questionnaire with the CCBC on or before 7 days from the service of this Order with CCBC.

 

...

 

This order has been made without a hearing under the Courts case management powers contained in Civil Procedure Rules. The parties have the right to apply to have the Order set aside, varied or stayed.

 

A party making such an application must file the application with the CCBC (together with any appropriate fee) within 7 days of service of this order.

oh dear looks like the claimant has failed to file their DQ then I bet

7 days is well up now

 

 

no harm in phoning the court and asking if they did file

and what is going on..

 

 

might have already been struck out? and you've already won?

 

 

not sure

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

Unfortunately not struck out :sad:

 

Just called CCBC and they said it has been transferred to my local court and that I would get a letter saying that in the post.

 

So presumably after that the next step is a hearing date from my local court? How will I know if it has been transferred to small claims court?

 

Any further action required by me at this point?

 

I guess things are getting serious now.

Just received a 'General Form of Judgement or Order' from my local claw courts dated 16th August. Your advice appreciated regarding what action I must and should take.

 

"Upon reading the statements of case and directions questionnaires filed

 

IT IS ORDERED THAT

 

1) The Claimant shall by 4pm on 30 August 2016 send to the court and to the Defendent copies of the agreement, default notice and notice of assignment referred to in the particulars of claim

 

2) The Defendant shall send to the court and to the Claimant a further statement of case by 4pm on 13 September 2016. This must set out a coherent statement of facts which, if true, amount in law to a defence to the claim.

 

3) Upon compliance with paragraphs 1 and 2 of this order the court file shall be referred to District Judge XXXXX for further directions.

 

4) Because this Order has been made by the court without considering representations from the parties, the parties have the right to apply to have the order set aside, varied or stayed. A party wishing to make an application must send or deliver the application to the court (together with any appropriate fee) to arrive within seven days of service of this Order.

 

Dayed 26th July 2016"

So just wait until the 30th?

 

What should I be sending in a further statment?

 

You cant comply with point 2 until/if the claimant complies with point 1.

Today I received a letter from Howard Cohen & Co.

 

"...After further consideration, we have been instructed by our client to discontinue County Court proceedings against you. Therefore, please find attached our client's Notice of Discontinuance. We confirm that the same has been filed at the court. We trust this concludes the matter."

 

So, that's good, right? :wink:

Thanks for all your help (and dx too), I definitely would like to make a donation.

 

A couple of further questions I'd like to ask if you don't mind.

 

1) Under what circumstances can they bring this back to court and how long do they have to do so?

 

2) If this showed on my credit rating, would it 'disappear' this month, if I had defaulted Sep 2010?

 

It will be 2018 before 6 years have passed since I last made payment,

but the default notice was issued September 2010.

 

 

It is my understanding that they need the permission of the judge to bring this back to court

- presumably a judge would want to see the documents previously requested

- if they could produce them, then I assume the case could go back to court prior to 2018?

1 none

 

 

2.yes

 

 

they can start a fresh new claim or sell it on

 

 

but I very much doubt either.

Just had a letter from the court stating:

 

"IT IS ORDERED THAT

 

1. Unless the Claimant, by 4.00pm on 21st October 2016, complies with paragraph 1 of the order made on 26th July 2016 the claim shall be struck out."

 

Also says that if they do comply, I have until 4th Nov to comply with paragraph 2.

 

I assume all of this is just tidying up the case from the court end and no further action is likely to be taken. It does surprise me however, how long it has taken to get to this stage and also, that the deadline is just one day after I received the letter!

 

With regards to another issue I brought up earlier, my credit file (at least according to noddle) still claims that I owe Hoist £9.2k despite this case (perhaps it will disappear once struck out?) and despite it now being over 6 years since I originally defaulted. The last update to my file was Oct 2016 saying "account has defaulted" as it has done throughout. Any advice on this? I can dispute via noddle I think, but other than that, not sure of how to proceed.
