    • Thank-you dx for your feedback. That is the reason I posted my opinion, because I am trying to learn more and this is one of the ways to learn, by posting my opinions and if I am incorrect then being advised of the reasons I am incorrect. I am not sure if you have educated me on the points in my post that would be incorrect. However, you are correct on one point, I shall refrain from posting on any other thread other than my own going forward and if you think my post here is unhelpful, misleading or in any other way inappropriate, then please do feel obliged to delete it but educate me on the reason why. To help my learning process, it would be helpful to know what I got wrong other than it goes against established advice considering the outcome of a recent court case on this topic that seemed to suggest it was dismissed due to an appeal not being made at the first stage. Thank-you.   EDIT:  Just to be clear, I am not intending to go against established advice by suggesting that appeals should ALWAYS be made, just my thoughts on the particular case of paying for parking and entering an incorrect VRN. Should this ever happen to me, I will make an appeal at the first stage to avoid any problems that may occur at a later stage. Although, any individual in a similar position should decide for themselves what they think is an appropriate course of action. Also, I continue to be grateful for any advice you give on my own particular case.  
    • you can have your humble opinion.... You are very new to all this private parking speculative invoice game you have very quickly taken it upon yourself to be all over this forum, now to the extent of moving away from your initial thread with your own issue that you knew little about handling to littering the forum and posting on numerous established and existing threads, where advice has already been given or a conclusion has already resulted, with your theories conclusions and observations which of course are very welcomed. BUT... in some instances, like this one...you dont quite match the advice that the forum and it's members have gathered over a very long consensual period given in a tried and trusted consistent mannered thoughtful approach. one could even call it forum hi-jacking and that is becoming somewhat worrying . dx
    • Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant .... I said DCBL because I was reading a few threads about them discontinuing claims and getting spanked in court! Meant  YOU  Highview !!!  🖕 The more I read this forum and the more I engage with it's incredible users, the more I learn and the more my knowledge expands. If my case gets to court, the Judge will dismiss it after I utter my first sentence, and you DCBL and Highview don't even know why .... OMG! .... So excited to get to court!
    • Yep, I read that and thought about trying to find out what the consideration and grace period is at Riverside but not sure I can. I know they say "You must tell us the specific consideration/grace period at a site if our compliance team or our agents ask what it is"  but I doubt they would disclose it to the public, maybe I should have asked in my CPR 31.14 letter? Yes, I think I can get rid of 5 minutes. I am also going to include a point about BPA CoP: 13.2 The reference to a consideration period in 13.1 shall not apply where a parking event takes place. I think that is Deception .... They giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other! One other point to note, the more I read, the more I study, the more proficient I feel I am becoming in this area. Make no mistake DBCL if you are reading this, when I win in court, if I have the grounds to make any claims against you, such as breach of GDPR, I shall be doing so.

    • 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 am posting this on behalf of my wife ..

 

she has a debt owed to mbna for £2600

we hadnt heard anything on this for 5 years

but as its 11 months off statue barred its popped its head up..

 

have a cca here to send off just unsure who gets it

 

the debt was owned by dlc

but a recent letter says they was placing the account with Cabot Financial (europe)

and their next step would be to pass the account to restons solictors

 

had no letter off cabot but a nice one turned up off restons threatening a ccj ..

.from what i read here their pretty true to their word.

.so was hoping a cca might slow them down.

 

the restons letter stats all future correspondence

and payments should be done through them

 

so do i send a the cca to them to dlc or to cabot

 

thankyou on behalf of my better half

1 Kings Hill Avenue,

Kings Hill,

the FCA [was FSA] deemed £12 or under would not be investigated

they are still unlawful penalties under FCA guidelines

You say you had a letter at 5 years 11 months. If it isn't a court claim then they'd very likely be out of time no matter how they reply.

 

And because it's Cabot, they won't have the paperwork anyway

They can try but you can easily use a no paperwork holding defence.

 

 

Get the cca off today and they have 12+2 days to provide it.

 

 

Once you request it, the debts legally unenforceable until they supply a compliant response.

 

They know this but they hope you don't.

 

 

Sounds very shady?

 

 

Welcome to how dcas work.

 

 

They don't care about law or regulation.

 

 

They just want your money

i just doubled checked everything on the letter

and just so i havent missed anything the reston letter states this ..

 

 

.we are instructed by our client,

cabot financial (europe) limited,

appointed by your creditor ME III limited

 

 

..then goes on about the balance and then says as you have been previously notified,

ME III limited acquired the rights to the above account on friday june 24th 2016

and is entitled to receive payment due under the same..

 

now i mention the above because my wife hasnt had any other letters except the one from dlc

saying they was handed the account over to cabot financial dated the 29th june 2016

 

no idea who ME III limited is

 

i assume same cca still goes to cabot as there listed as the client

we dont like the idea of a ccj

 

where most dca blow wind out a ccj seems so final

and doesnt go away you either pay it off or it sits there forever as you chip away at it killing your credit file..

 

. now i know at the mo the credit rating sucks

but this debt isnt even listed on it

but a ccj will and wont go away after 6 years

Get the CCA fired off and they CANT get a CCJ until they supply paperwork.

Cabot and restons do this all the time.

Its their default way of doing things.

 

Unless they can prove the debt is enforceable and legit, they havent got a hope in hell.

If they try and issue a claim while in default of your request,

then you use a holidng defence and stop them in their tracks.

 

Stop worrying about something that may not ever happen, and get the request off.

Hi

i have ran into a issue cabot site has a area you can register

so i attempted this just so i could get some info and proper mailing address

 

i know about the other address and thats the one i was going to send it too

if using the reference number i was given didnt yield a better address

 

seems the ref number doesnt exist its just one restons is using

so i dont actually have a reference number for cabot

so sending a cca request off seems pointless as they wont know who the heck we are ..

 

should i phone either restons or dlc the previous holder of the debt see if they have mailing info .

.and off restons the reference number?

 

or should i send the cca request to restons and see if they will pass it to their client?

 

i have the letters printed and the postal orders but with no reference number i am a bit stuck...

wow bit tetchy there..

. i just dont want my time wasted sending the cca to the wrong place seeing i dont have an address

and they have like 20 different company names .

 

 

.and as that previous thread they will use any excuse for not complying ie no payee info..

i have plenty of time as you have said once the cca is sent and received they're stopped in their tracks ..

.so no harm in making sure i have everything correct

 

and just so i keep everyone upto-date

received a letter today from dls in the form of a notice of arrears

dated after all the other letters received from them and reston..

so if dls no longer own the debt why the heck they sending out a notice they aint required too?

 

anyway cca sent to cabot financial europe limited as thats the stated client

as said before

DLC/Cabot are in the same group of companies

next desk next bloke in a diff coloured skirt

 

the owner of the debt

must send certain letters if they wish to charge interest

a NOSIA is one of those.

 

wow bit tetchy there..

what stapling a copy of the restons letter to the CCA?:lol:
