    • Now that is an interesting article which adds afew perspective that I hadn't thought significant - but on reflection of the perspectives offered ... Now Starmer is no Blair, however 'blairite he may be perceived, but the Tories aren't tories and aren't even remotely liberal   The fast 'unannounced and unexpected election call from sunack may well be explained by the opinion linked that he hoped reform would be unprepared and effectively call a chunk of Farages largely empty bluster - making him look even more of a prat, leave scope for attacks on shabby reform candidates and mimimise core vote losses to reform - while throwing the 'middle ground' (relative) tories TO THE DOGS - and with the added bonus of likely pacifying his missu' desire to jogg off to sunny cal tout suite somewhat   thumb in the air - I expect about 140ish tory seats, but can hope for under a hundred Reform - got to admit the outside possibility of 1, maybe 2 seats with about 8% of the vote - but unlikely. I think projections of over 10% of the vote for reform is nudged and paid for speculation - but possible with the expected massive drives from Russian, Chinese and far right social media bot and troll prods targeting the gullible.
    • Commentary June 2024 WWW.ELECTORALCALCULUS.CO.UK Interesting article about just how bad it could be for the Tories.  Also Tories could be hoping on Reform not having candidates in many seats, as they were not ready.  
    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?

    • 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.

Unfortunately, an offer of £10 would be refused. This is because the contract that the company have with the court gives them only a very limited time in which to enforce the debt.

 

The amout of £906 presumably includes bailiff fee of £310 (£75 Compliance fee and £235 Enforcement Fee). the amount of fine is therefore around £600.

 

Did you receive a summons?

 

Did you respond to the summons?

 

Did you enter a plea (guilty or not guilty)?

 

Did you complete the Means Statement attached to the summons?

 

Have you made any payments towards the fine?

 

 

I didn't received letter from court at my previous address,

 

They asked me to send Income and Expenditure Form I did,

than made £50PM payments for 2 months but than I couldn't afford

and the court sent it back to marston, now they are after me.

 

I can only afford about £10PM really or can stretch to £15PM

The matter of 'affordability' of repayments is a subject that I am actually writing a report on at this present time. Many people on a low income or on benefits genuinly cannot afford even £5 per month but with court fines it needs to be made clear that if a debtor is in receipt of state benefits, the regulations actually state that if an attachment against benefits is made that the mimimum amount of deduction is set at £5 PER WEEK. Magistrate Courts are unable therefore to permit repayments at a rate lower than this.

I am slightly confused by your above answer.

 

Are you saying that you did not receive any documenation about this at your previous address?

 

Who asked you to complete an Income & Expenditure?

 

Who did you make payments to?

I rang Magistrate Court after looking at my Credit Report

Magistrate Court said I have to pay these fines

I said I can't afford it, so they sent me Income & Expenditure Form

I filled in, and they said I gota pay £50PM, I paid for 2 months

than I couldn't afford, so they sent the debt back to Marston. so please

tell me what shall I do.

Do you have much in the way of possessions that Marstons could take to sell to pay the fine ? If you don't, you could invite them to where you are living for them to see for themselves. You may not want this, if you are staying with friends or family.

 

If you are on low income or benefits, the courts could arrange an attachment to your earnings, but i think you might struggle to get the court to deal with it, unless Marstons hand it back to them.

We could do with some help from you.

  • 10 months later...

Hi I just received a letter from Marston its a Notice of Enforcement letter.

 

They have sent this letter on behalf of Courts & Tribunals Service. for the amount of £561.67

and I have to pay this by 08/06/2016 otherwise they will take a serious action against me,

and with there cost Inc the total amount I have to pay now is £636.67

 

Before I had this letter I was paying direct to Tribunal court directly with the payment card

but I ran into some financial difficulties and also with the family bereavement

I had to leave the country for 2 months

 

now Tribunal wont take this as an excuse and that charges which were about £250 gone upto £636.67,

I have tried speaking direct with Tribunal to arrange that payment method again

but they refused as they said I have no ground..

 

. please please help me I am already in so much stress right now,

I know its my fault but I am already paying the minimum payments to my other debtors

but I think its a disgrace paying £636.67 and not the original amount which is only about £250.

 

Please any help and information will be highly appreciated.

 

Regards

Is this debt anything to do with a fine that you had last year?

No this is an old fine,

 

 

I've started paying them off but because of financial difficulties and bereavement in the family

it was very difficult to make ends meet,

 

 

I forgot about it, when I remember to pay them again court said no they can't arrange a payment plan

again it has to be dealt with Marston and

 

 

now I receive this letter from Marston to pay that off in full.

hich is not possible with my current circumstances.

so where has the speeding fine come from?

anyway

people now have the complete history

I've merged the threads.

 

and will advise.

as mentioned here

and I see in the last time

I hope you are not wasting money paying those DCA's still?

they are not a priority

you need to use the money you pay them to pay these fines off.

 

its been going on far too long

no wonder you are getting charges

STOP PAYING THE DCA'S PAY THIS FINE OFF.

Yes it is the same fine I have written before

 

Reading back on your earlier posts it would seem that Marston Group attempted to enforce a warrant against you last year and failed.

 

They returned the debt back to the court and payment arrangements were set up. Bailiff fees would have been removed.

 

It would seem that you have again defaulted on paying the court and once again, a warrant has been sent to Marston Group.

 

When the account was sent back by Marston Group last year, did you contact the court to ask whether you could have your financial means reviewed?

 

What payment arrangement did the court agree with you?

 

How many payments have you missed?

Hi Thanks for the reply I really appreciate all your help guys,

 

well I have tried contacting court but they said the cant do anything have to contact marston,

 

I was in so much financial stress I was dreading calling them honestly, I

 

have tried to contact court and ask them to reconsider but they refused,

 

I need to sort this out asap as the deadline date is tomorrow.

 

I have missed 2 payments then they cancelled the payment plan.

 

court agreed on £50/PCM

 

Thanks

I am struggling here with the background to this fine.

 

Looking back at your thread, it would seem, (although I could be wrong) that you had a fine in 2013 and also in 2015 and now in 2016.

 

Is the fine that is being pursued today the same one that was being enforced in 2013?

I know it's probably very confusing but it's the same fine I had in 2013
