    • 1. who knows... 2. not the whole A/C vanishes from your file on the DN's 6th b'day ...already carefully explain this. 3.yes 4.already carefully explain this.
    • if i remember rightly, long ago in one of the first drafts of the old proposed gov't overhauls, there was a listing of recommended 'charges' that inc wrong reg = £20. some PPC's implemented such changes in advance. then later as it looked increasing likely the new code was never going to be implemented after it's 1st review and another set of codes was to be debated they all quietly revert back .......... dx
    • Potentially it may not even get sold on? Just the default left for 6 years then gone? but if it is sold on ill get a letter from the DCA which is the notice of assignment? Sorry what is the different between a default notice and a default cal marker? yes, i may try and work arrangements out with the OCs after the breathing space but I'll see my circumstances then thank you again for all your help and patience, I really appreciate it and apologies If i am too fast or repeating myself.
    • receiving a default NOTICE (forget simple default cal markers) does not mean it will get sold on... OC's very very rarely do court themselves.  if it does you would receive a Notice of Assignment from the debt buyer/DCA.  as for reduced payment if it remains with the OC and they issue a DN, no harm in trying but lets get all your ducks inline first. dx  
    • okay thanks do you know how long it will take for it to get to the DCA or could the OC try and issue a CCJ? even though it's unlikely also for example would the OC agree to a reduction and a small payment over a super lengthy period of time if agreed? Rather than go through chasing apologies again for all the questions, just trying to understand all the possible scenarios.

    • 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 believe it says on the 3rd page about half way down under

"the following directions apply to thie claim"

 

 

6) each party must deliver to the other party and to the court office copies of all docs on which that party intends to rely upon at the hearing no later than fouteen days before the hearing?

 

the hearing is on 15th feb

 

Then you must proceed with the directions and prepare your disclosure and witness statement and file and serve by that date...its a good indication if by that date you have not received the claimants witness statement and disclosures ..they do not intend to proceed...so any thoughts of settlement should be kept in abeyance until such time...irrespective whether they pay the hearing fee or not.

 

Discussed this on the 3rd Jan MF

We could do with some help from you.

yeah DX, working days!, so not including saturday and sunday, I always thought it was 14 normal days so i was kinda waiting till the last minute. is this right??

 

I'm confused Andy - are you saying that you told me to follow the directions and it's my fault (I would understand if that's what you were saying) or are you saying that as I have not recieved the claimants WS and disclosure that they do not intend to proceed? but if thats the case why would they pay the fee?

Simply pointing out that you knew what was required by the 3rd and now you are running out of time.

 

As they have paid the fee...its still not a sure sign they are proceeding.....check with the court and see if they have submitted their disclosures and witness statement to the court...it could be that they have and failed to serve you.

Yes Andy you are totally correct, I now it's my fault, I have just had so much on my plate lately I'm struggling to keep up!

 

I did ask if lowells had submitted their disclosure and WS and the lady said that nothing has been received.

Get straight on with drafting your WS myfamily, then post it up here for the guys to have a look at for you.

 

I would deliver it yourslef at your local court tomorrow, that saves with the wait on postage and then your only

one day late. Then send the claimant his copy 14 days before so he doesn't get it to early 😉

Well thats a plus...no disclosures/witness statement = no written evidence that they can rely on = no point attending the trial

Hi Andy, yes you are right, I know I've let it slip but just had so much on my plate, it's been so stressful.

 

I did ask the lady if they had received the WS and disclosures from Lowells and she confirmed that they have not go received anything..

 

So I am hopeful that they have slipped up? Sorry duplicate reply!

 

I am working on it tonight and will post it here first. I am working tomorrow (part of my stress!!) So I will try and get it down there, not sure how!

Hi All,

 

I never managed to get back online on thursday night or friday as a I had total disaster at work and could not get this written or even get away to go deliver it.

 

I really didn't know what to write so it's kind of short - have no idea if it's going to be enoguh - I have not received anything fom Lowells (WS and disclosures) so hoping they havent complied.

 

I am not sure whether to mention the default date is different on my credit report than what Lowells have stated, and that they provide the agreement and statements but not notice of assignment

 

I am ready to go down to the court anytime today, if this is ok?

I dont suppose there is really anything further to state as there was no disputes and your defence simply relies upon them being able to disclose the necessary documents which their claim relies upon.

 

Dont forget to do your disclosures also......CPR/CCA request and responses etc.

Well typically I have recieved the WS and disclosures from Lowell.

 

They have sent a copy of the agreement, statements and default notice that they sent me - but have also added the notice of assignement which WASN'T sent to me as per my request and that I have infomred the court in my WS hat I have not received. they have also added 4 other letters aksing for payment and then the last letter is a letter of claim.

 

the covering latter also states an amount of £986.03 whereas the claim was for £863.03 (including the court fee) - whats that about then?

 

I'm stuffed aren't I?

The difference in amounts will be section 69 interest which is accruing until judgment.

When you file a defence based on putting the claimant to strict proof to disclose with no other further arguments...you always run the risk that they may be able to disclose the necessary and that the claim may proceed to trial.

 

Its a gamble and in most cases normally successful.

 

So now you have 2 options.....

 

Does what they have disclosed look valid in particular the agreement..which you may wish to scan in and post up for opinions.(retract any identifiable data first)

 

Or you can approach the claimant with view to negotiating a settlement...be mindful of the hearing date and how much time is left.

:-(

 

They have also mentioned in their WS that I e-mailed and made an offer.

 

This is the agreement that they sent - looks ok to me.

 

but the default date is weird thought, they say in the WS that the account defaulted on 28th Feb which matches my noddle account - but thier default letter is dated 9 Oct 2013 and gave until 28th Oct 2013 so shouldn't the default date be 28th Oct 2013?

 

I have attached the agreement

 

If I were to try and negotiate is that going to be a lump sum or monthly - I have no money so I cannt do a lump sum :-(

As its a post 2007 agreement Im sure a Court would accept it being legally valid.The error in default dates would be regarded as de minis and an error within their Witness statement..the hard copy would be taken as fact.

 

Yes you can agree a monthly payment arrangement......if you agree it by way of a Tomlin Order you could also avoid a CCJ being registered.

The claimant prepares a Tomlin Order..you just suggest it as a proposal.

 

You have to deal with the Solicitor named on the claim form....give them a ring..far quicker.
