    • OK  so you may not have outed yourself if you said "we". No matter either way you paid. Snotty letter I am surprised that they were so quick off the mark threatening Court. They usually take months to go that far. No doubt that as you paid the first one they decided to strike quickly and scare you into paying. Dear Chuckleheads  aka Alliance,  I am replying to your LOCs You may have caught me the first time but that is  the end. What a nasty organisation you are. You do realise that you now have now no reason to continue to pursue me after reading my appeal since you know that my car was not cloned. Any further pursuit will end up with a complaint to the ICO that you are breaching my GDPR.  Please confirm that you have removed my details from your records. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I haven't gone for a snotty letter this time as they know that you paid for your car in another car park. So using a shot across their bows .  If it doesn't deter them and they send in the debt collectors or the Court you will then be able to get more money back from them for  breachi.ng your data protection than they will get should they win in Court-and they have no chance of that as you have paid. So go in with guns blazing and they might see sense.  Although never underestimate how stupid they are. Or greedy.
    • Thank you. Such a good point. They did issue all 3 before I paid though. I only paid one because I didn’t have proof of parking that time, only for two others.    Unfortunately no proof of my appeal as it was just submitted through a form on their website and no copy was sent to me. I only have the reply. I believe I just put something like “we made the honest mistake of using the incorrect parking area on the app” and that’s it. Thanks again for your help. 
    • They are absolute chuckleheads. You paid but because you entered a different car park site also belonging to them they are pursuing you despite them knowing what you had done. It would be very obvious to everyone, including Alliance that your car could not have been in two places at the same time. Thank you for posting the PCN so quickly making it a pity that you appealed since there are so many things wrong with it that you as keeper are not liable to pay the charge. They rarely accept appeals since that would mean they lose money but they have virtually no chance of beating you in Court. Very unlikely that they will take you to Court given the circumstances. Just in case you didn't out yourself as the driver could you please post up your appeal.
    • Jasowter I hope that common sense prevails with Iceland and the whole matter can be successfully ended. I would perhaps not have used a spell checker just to prove the dyslexia 🙂 though it may have made it more difficult to read. I noticed that you haven't uploaded the original PCN .Might not be necessary if the nes from Iceland is good. Otherwise perhaps you could get your son to do it by following the upload instructions so that we can appeal again with the extra ammunition provided by the PCN. Most of them rarely manage to get the wording right which means that you as the keeper are not liable to pay the charge-only the driver is and they do not know the name and address of the driver. So that would put you both in the clear if the PCN is non compliant.
    • Thank you so much. Yes, I wish I had done my research and not paid. It's all for the same car park. Here is one of the original PCNs, they are all the same bar different dates. PCN-22.03.24-1.pdf PCN-22.03.24-2.pdf

    • 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.

Just a thought;

The creditor has property all over the place and often goes away for months at a time… Can he say he didn't receive it and ask for a set-aside if he happens to be on holiday at one of his other houses? Presumably, though he will have made an arrangement for mail to be forwarded?

I think his relatives check on the house whilst he is away… I'm just worrying because this other neighbour has signed for it, so he can say he wasn't served it, can't he?

again, as per the link andy posted, 'deemed service' under cpr;

6.14 re 7.5(1)

6.14

'A claim form served within the United Kingdom in accordance with this Part is deemed to be served on the second business day after completion of the relevant step under rule 7.5(1).'

7.5(1)

'method of service

'First class post, document exchange or other service which provides for delivery on the next business day

step required

Posting, leaving with, delivering to or collection by the relevant service provider'

etc

justice.gov.uk

 

no worries, except the other 99 red balloons :)

 

there's no judgment yet, so 'set aside' is not an issue.

they have 14 odd days to do something, or not.

Thanks, Ford… He is definitely there, anyway… passed him on the road yesterday… if looks could kill.

 

If I suddenly disappear… well, you heard it here first!

 

(He's got 6 days to respond).

Ok… thank you! He was deemed served on 10 August…. so he should acknowledge by 24th, (next Weds), I guess…

 

Do you know if he has to acknowledge to the court or to me directly… or file and serve to both? :| TB

see part 10 etc CPR

def at least to the court, court then shld notify the claimant accordingly.

 

That sounds about right…so if the court doesn't get back to me by the end of the week, I should assume there has been no acknowledgement and ask for judgement by default? TB

check with the court, re the service as well, post back what they say.

but yes, def judgment is as per the CPR. as they said before, they wld need a cert of service.

Sorry Ford… what do you mean by 'check with the court re service'? I have already sent the court a certificate of service…(sent by recorded, so I know they received it). TB

Hi, guys!

 

I was about to file a request with the court as the debtor has failed to acknowledge service of claim… but now I'm very confused again as I found the following advice, and it states I must wait 28 days… I don't want to mess up and would really appreciate your help… TB

 

 

A​p​​plying for default judgment - Step by step guide

 

Step 1: Find out date of​​ serv​​ice ​

 

You cannot get a default judgment unless 28 days have passed since the defendant was served with the Statement of Claim.

 

If you did not serve the defendant yourself, you can find out when they were served by:

 

calling the court, if the court served the Statement of Claim by post

looking at the Affidavit of Service prepared by the process server

asking the friend or relative who served the Statement of Claim.

For service by post on an individual or a company, the Statement of Claim is taken to be served on the 4 th working day after it was posted.

 

For service on a business running under a business name or a partnership, the Statement of Claim is taken to be served at the end of seven days after the day it was posted.

Step 2: Get the ​​​for​​ms

 

You need two forms:

 

Form 38 Notice of Motion - Default judgment for liquidated claim

Form 41 Affidavit of Service

You can get copies of forms from:

 

your nearest Local Court or

the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules (UCPR) website.

You will not need the Affidavit of Service form if the court served the Statement of Claim by post. If it was served by a process server, they will have already filled out and signed an Affidavit of Service.

Step 3: Arrange for Affidavit of S​ervice form to be filled out and signed or get completed for​m from the process server

 

For information on filling out and signing an Affidavit of Service, see Serving the Statement of Claim, Instructions for filling out an Affidavit of Service, Sample Affidavit of Service 1 and Sample Affidavit of Service 2.

 

Car icon If the claim is about a car accident and need to fill out and sign an Affidavit of Service, see Instructions for filling out an Affidavit of Service - car accidents, Sample Affidavit of Service 1 - car accidents and Sample Affidavit of Service 2 - car accidents.

Step 4: Fill out and ​s​​ign Notice of Motion form

 

You can fill out the Notice of Motion form in neat handwriting in blue or black pen. You can also fill it out on your computer screen. The guide Completing Approved Forms (52 kb) has instructions on how to do this.

 

 

To fill in the Notice of Motion form you will need to have the following information ready:

 

your case number (you will find this on your stamped copy of the Statement of Claim)

the date that the defendant was served with the Statement of Claim

the amount of any payments made to you by the defendant since the Statement of Claim was filed

a re-calculated amount of interest to include the extra days between filing the Statement of Claim and signing the Notice of Motion (see Interest, filing and service fees)

the name of the person who signed the Affidavit of Service and the date it was signed (not needed if the court served by post).

It will help to have your copy of the Statement of Claim and the completed Affidavit of Service with you while you fill out the Notice of Motion.

 

In the Notice of Motion form under the heading 'Affidavit' you need to set out:

 

the amount of the debt when you filed the Statement of Claim

any payments made by the debtor since you filed the Statement of Claim, or that no payment has been made

the amount of interest you are claiming up to the date of signing the Notice of Motion

the amount you are claiming for filing and service fees

how and when the Statement of Claim was served on the defendant

how you know about the information in the Affidavit.

For detailed instructions, see Instructions for filling out a Notice of Motion - Default Judgment for Liquidated Claim.

 

To look at a completed form, see Sample Notice of Motion - Default Judgment Liquidated Claim.

 

For more information on signing affidavits, see Affidavits.

Thanks, Andy… so I don't request a default judgement until 33 days has lapsed. Why does it state a 14 day limit for acknowledgement of service? Can the defendant just wait 30 days and then acknowledge? Are there any penalties for failing to acknowledge within the 14 day period?

Gosh… so complicated! TB
