    • Thanks just looked at SARequest It wouldn’t make ebay have to say why they suspended me. all their email said was that it was related to buying activity. But under that bike buying activity there are about five different reasons why it could’ve been. But they haven’t specified which of these five reasons it was.
    • Thank you Ethel, their letter was literally one line, with an added bonus of a typo..... "As you own the land that the property was damaged on we would not be able to dela with that aspect of the claim.", so I think it may be the initial fob off. I have replied just stating "This is not correct, the fence is owned by XYZ ltd, please clarify?", but will follow it up with a letter from the company. will let you know how I get on x
    • About a year ago i was summonsed to court for a speeding offence, long story short it wasn't me that was driving the vehicle, and i successfully proved that i had not received any paperwork (the reason it went to a summons) because there is a problem with our address, i live at number 7, yet when you look online to enter our address for anything you have 7, 5-7 and 7-9 on our street, one is my address and two are businesses.  The court ruled that there was an issue, and agreed i did not receive any paperwork (aside from me not being the driver)  i thought it odd that i never received anything in the post to say that, but they are the courts i assumed everything would be in order. Now just recently i have been using family members vehicles to get to work and have been insuring the vehicles on a temporary basis. Recently when using a comparison website i would get results and then when i went to make payment it would not let me advance, i had tried this on numerous sites and the same happened, i assumed that it would have been because i have used to many temporary insurances and it may have flagged for whatever reason. i went to check my license online, and i cant view it, it states below, i called the DVLA and they can not view any details either and have said they will need to raise a case internally to find out what has happened.  My wife and brother seem to think that the courts have screwed up not informed the DVLA of anything, hence i was banned. But surely it wouldn't have taken so long for me to stop being able to insure my vehicle on a temporary basis until just now?? Please can anyone assist as im worried sick now and ive done absolutely nothing wrong, i need my license for my job. ....................

    • 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 I wondered if anyone could advice me?

 

In 2003 we moved to ROI bought a house got jobs and all was well,

we took an additional loan to complete major renovations on our house.

 

Then the recession started, we both lost our jobs we continued to talk to the bank

but there was no help available and there was no other work and no way of making a living.

 

In 2009 my mother died suddenly and I realised I couldn't carry on in ROI.

We then moved back to the UK,

 

We had heard nothing from the bank from 2009 until yesterday

we received a letter from a solicitor saying that they had been instructed as the mortgage

and additional loan is in arrears and the interest is continuing to accrue!

 

The amount they want is 366K which they want in 7 days,

if that is not paid they are going to issue summary proceedings in the High Court

to seek judgement with costs and interest.

 

We have heard nothing from 2009 to now no letters or phone calls....

..why is this happening now?

 

When we moved to the UK we have had to start again and we have a debt management plan here.

 

I am terrified what does all this mean?

what will happen?

 

our life in the last 9 months is just starting to pick up

statute barred.?

 

they saw the figure

and though that's worth a punt.

 

I assume the letter does not say will anywhere

if you read it properly..

and

that the bank are not 'their client'

but a DCA.?

 

dx

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

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

You refer to .... mortgage and additional loan is in arrears and the interest is continuing to accrue!

 

Are both debts with the same Company ?

 

Was the additional Loan secured on your property ?

Thank you for your replies

 

Hi

We have heard nothing at all from the Permanent TSB (mortgage) or AIB (secured loan) they didn't correspond with us even when we lived there. We had no idea about the interest accruing and felt when we left the country that the house had been surrendered to the the banks, they would sell it and that would be it..........in hindsight very naive!

 

We left ROI in 2009 but hadn't paid anything against the loan or mortgage for a year or so before that as we had both lost our jobs.

 

The letter says that they are solicitors working on behalf of Permanent TSB but we have seen no authority from TSB saying they have instructed them. Just that they are looking to secure a judgement against in the high court if we don't pay 366K within 7 days which would not be possible.

 

I think the statute for mortgages is 12 years but I'm not sure

Yes it is 12 years...and if the additional loan was secured on the property..that also will be 12 years.

I think you need to converse with the Solicitors and try to attain what exactly happened to the property.....the repossession..the sale etc...get some figures.

 

Are both loans with the same company ?

Do you own any assets such as property in the UK ?

 

If you have no assets and are in a debt management plan in the UK, i think i would write back telling them this to save them wasting their time and money.

 

Once you find out more about what happened in Ireland, you might decide to get more rounded debt advice to see what options are available.

Yes I own a house in the UK which is actually what i am worried about more than anything,

 

 

since the amount we owe is such a large amount I am worried that that will be gone.

 

 

This house was bought with an inheritance from my parents

and because of our ages we would prbably never be able to buy in the UK again.

 

 

The house in the UK is in my name only whereas the house in Ireland was a joint mortgage.

If you own the house without any mortgage or loan against it, i think you might be wise to get some legal advice about protecting this asset, BEFORE any court action is started by this Irish creditor. There might be ways of safeguarding it in a way that stops it being an asset they can get their hands on.

The house has a smallish mortgage 120K GBP I could cope with anything else but not this house being taken. Would the fact it is my name only make a difference considering the mortgage in ROI was joint?

How long does the high court take? and will they want 366K from us or just the cost?

" Would the fact it is my name only make a difference considering the mortgage in ROI was joint? "

 

No because the debts will be joint and several and so both of you are liable.

I think you need to find out more about what has happened in Ireland, otherwise it might be difficult to deal with any UK court proceedings. Did they obtain an Irish court judgement ? If so, it might be a quick process in a UK high court to transfer judgement here.

 

It might be worth seeing a Solicitors to see whether you can protect your equity in the house against these Irish creditors. If you can do so, the complication is that the mortgage company may have to consent to whatever you plan on doing.
