    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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 all, if this is in the wrong section please move.

 

I have a Aqua credit card,

Aqua are part of New Day Ltd, had it about 11 months and no problems,

always used and paid in full etc...

 

 

Then 2 months ago I noticed a £12 charge on account for being over my £200 credit limit,

I thought this was odd as in the few days before this the balance was around £195 and I had not used the card.

it transpired that interest added had taken my balance to £203 to which they then added the £12 fee.

 

I said I wanted this fee refunded then I would pay,

but until then I will not make any payment as the account is in dispute,

 

 

Aqua are nigh on impossible to get hold off,

they insist on doing everything via the telephone, no email,

there is a PO Box address Only in Sheffield,

and a area in online portal which has like a 100 character limit to send messages to them.

 

They try to call me at least 10 times a day,

5 times mobile and 5 times landline,

despite me telling them I will not deal with this on a telephone call

and to email me or write me,

 

 

they have sent me 3 letters, which are only 2 lines long, saying phone us regarding your account.

 

They have since added a further £12 fee for late payment,

but I had said weeks before this I will not make a payment because the account is in dispute.

 

I have sent them about 10 different messages via the online portal,

each one 100 characters long explaining that I want the 2 x £12 charges to be removed

and then I will pay £100 toward the remaining balance, but until then,

the account will remain unpaid and in dispute,

 

 

I also said that I did not wish to be contacted anymore via telephone

and for each time they tried calling me AFTER I sent them this message

I will record the day and time and charge them £10 each time,

 

 

well since then they have called more than 30 times so clearly don't care.

 

Earlier they phoned again, I said, Look, the account is in dispute over these £24 in charges,

remove them and then I will make a £100 payment, also, stop calling me,

 

 

I have said this in writing and am charging you £10 per call,

the bill is currently £300 which I will invoice you for,

all they said was, ok, sorry for calling, it won't happen again,

and then less than 20 minutes later they called again, madness.

 

how can I go about dealing with this, and how can I stop the calls,

its bordering harassment now, especially when I have said stop,

or I will charge and invoice you, maybe I should invoice them.

 

Are these £12 charges legal, do I have to pay them,

I didn't physically spend over my limit,

I was taken over it due to the interest added,

so surly I can't be charged a over limit fee.

 

Sorry for the ramble, am venting a bit, angry is not the word.

They know that has no legal standing thats why. Plus the call centre reps are there for one purpose. To make you pay.

 

Send a letter saying they are not to contact you. Head it notice of formal complaint. Send it to their head office via their complaints procedure, and they have 8 weeks to rectify it.

 

However if you get multiple calls each day, keep a full log and read up on harrison vs link.

 

As for charges, they are penalty charges and no youd ont have to pay them. But if you dont, they can close the accoutn and call the entire amount in for payment. Its better to pay off the charges, if you value your credit file, then reclaim them.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Honestly just pay it for now... Itll stop the damage and then you can duke it out...

The FOS and CAB would both agree with it...

 

I get it the charges arent lawful... But the fight to repair the credit damage that could occur isnt worth it...

 

We could do with some help from you.
