    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...

    • 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 didnt even know this place existed till today and i came here for another reason a hour later of reading, i am hoping ppl can give me some advice ..

 

i owe a debit which has been bought by lowell now they have been calling of and off for weeks

but i have ignored the phone and i had had several letters, wanting payment

 

the amount i owe is £3679 its a littlewoods credit card debt that i fell behind on and finally defaulted through no income.

 

now the thing is it doesnt say littlewoods on the lowell letters it says barclaycard who do own littlewoods card..

but i was told numerous times by barclaycard that they was two diff companies and also by mercers debt agency who was originally dealing with the debt on behalf of littlewoods,

that it wasnt a barclaycard and barclays was just the parent company ..

 

i dont kniow what to do about this as at present

 

i claim contribution JSA and in a 20 days time wont even have that so my personal income will be nil..

the littlewoods debt is mine not my wifes and as such she wont be paying it.

 

i was making token payments now and then to mercers

they said it wasnt a official payment plan as i was paying 5-10 per month but would stop interest etc on the account

then they informed me that the 7 month limit had been reached which i didnt know about

and as no official payment plan was in place it would be sent back to littlewoods for a formal demand which littlewoods did..

and then sold the debt to lowells

 

i assume like i said been told littlewoods isnt barclaycard but is owned by barclays and lowell say the debt is for barclaycard

 

 

sorry if that is as confusing as hell its been a nightmare for months

just trying to ignore it as is no way i can pay

and if i am declared bankrupt i would lose my license to work i have been told (sia license)

OK please calm down, there is absolutely nothing to worry about, they won't kill you or put you in Jail for a poxy CC debt.

 

Barclaycard and Mercers ARE the same company.

The very very maximum, in your circumstances, that you will ever have to pay is £1 a month.

 

When did you take this agreement out?

When was the last time you paid them anything for it?

Have you checked your credit file? Is it registered? If so who with?

 

Relax, calm down, sweet fanny adams is going to happen overnight, keep EVERYTHING in writing, never EVER talk to any of these clowns over the phone, if they ring you, laugh and hang up.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

while i sort out the credit history i wanted to as i have 3 credit cards now in default all cards are now stopped with barclaycard

 

..littlewoods being one of them but all have incured alot late payment and default fees where the interest forced me over my credit limit was more or less every month

 

i would get i think £12 charge for being late as i didnt pay it or when i was on agreed plan the two months

u have to pay the fees they say while u wait for ur plan to kick in and stop the interest.

 

.feels like one last way screw you a bit more when you cant pay.

 

and the £ 12 or so fee from going over can they be claimed back off the debts?

 

they prob arise for hundreds on each card

Think you need some proper debt advice to see what options you have. I think you need to do this now, as when the JSA stops, you will then have to see what other help is available.

 

Suggest that you book an urgent appointment with Citizens Advice. They can look into the debt issues and benefits.

We could do with some help from you.

Once Contribution based JSA ceases, you're entitled to Income based JSA at £65 per week (basic) plus help with rent, council tax, etc. if you qualify.

 

They may get you to go in to fill forms out again at the DWP/Job Centre, but you'd be entitled to it if you've been on contri-based immediately prior.

 

Hope that heps.

found a letter from lowell cant say its the last i have as like i said i have been ignoring them its dated 23rd jan 2012

 

and says the following

 

we can still help you get your account in order.

we have written to you several times now about the money you owe us,but you have not paid or set up a payment plan.we will be able to help you,however you must call us straightaway.

 

WHAT YOU COULD FACE IF WE DONT HEAR FROM YOU

we are willing to do all we can to help you clear your balance but if you do not pay or put a plan in place after this letter we will pass your account on to red debt collection services. red debt collection services are part of lowell financial LTD and specialise in assessing customers financial circumstances. they do this by obtaining a copy of your credit file from a credit reference agency and then using the information within it to dertermine what options are available to us to recover what you owe an example could be to use litigation. if legal action is taken against you .you could end up in court having to pay not only what you owe. but legal costs and interest aswell.

Lowell have bought one of my debts on 03/11/2009 i get letters still but I still have all my fingers and toes - as advised don't worry and try to use your local cab - they are really focussed on you and your circumstances. Lowell and their "legal" team will try and squeeze you for the money but just remember they chancing their arm.

Have you sent off a CCA request ?

 

If they are referring to this as a Barclaycard, don't tell them what it should be. Ask for a copy of the Credit card they are referring to.

 

You haven't said when you took this out, but barcaycard are one of the worst for retaining agreements.
