    • Hello, welcome to CAG. As you say, appealing this ticket doesn't help as these people hardly ever accept appeals. They don't care how difficult someone's life is, they just want the money. The forum guys should be along later with thoughts for you on how to deal with this. Best, HB
    • I have received an email in the last 10 minutes 4) The Claimant's witness is currently out of the office on annual leave and this was not relayed to DWF Law until after the event which has caused a further unfortunate delay. 5) The Court has directed parties to file and serve any evidence upon which they intend to rely not later than 14- days before the hearing i.e. by 4pm on 6 June 2024. Regrettably, the Claimant will have insufficient time to finalise their witness evidence and supporting exhibits as directed. We therefore respectfully apply to extend the time for filing/serving evidence so that the evidence upon which the parties intend to rely by filed and served not later than 7-days before the hearing i.e. by 4pm on 13 June 2024  It also includes a "Notice of Hearing" stating that the application hearing will take place on 13th June at 10.00am.  Confused as to whether I need to attend this ?
    • I've received this notice to keeper. I work for the NHS and was delayed due to patient care. I park here regular and and have never had any issues. I've looked at the evidence on the portal and other than showing that i entered at 12.59.33 and departed at 17:14:14 it doesn't state how long i overstayed for. I paid for 4 hours parking over the phone which i wont have done till i got parked but as its over the phone i have no receipt or record but it is not possible for me to have been in excess of 15mins from the photos alone but I'm unsure having read other threads whether grace periods are 10 or 15 minutes. I havent appealed yet but and was about to but in appealing i'm showing i'm the driver which i gather is something you state we must never do. I don't like confrontation but £60 seems extortionate. Hope you can help. 🤞 1 Date of the infringement 30th May 2024 2 Date on the NTK [this must have been received within 14 days from the 'offence' date] 30th May 2024 [scan up BOTH SIDES as ONE PDF- follow the upload guide] please LEAVE IN LOCATION AND ALL DATES/TIMES/£'s 3 Date received 5th June 2024 4 Does the NTK mention schedule 4 of The Protections of Freedoms Act 2012? [Y/N?] No reference to schedule 4 just says"...we the creditor reserve the right to recover unpaid parking charges from the registered keeper in accordance with POFA 2012." 5 Is there any photographic evidence of the event? Yes 6 Have you appealed? [Y/N?] post up your appeal] No Have you had a response? [Y/N?] post it up NA 7 Who is the parking company? Carpark securities 8. Where exactly [carpark name and town] Northgate, Halifax Former Dews Car Park HX1 1XJ For either option, does it say which appeals body they operate under. IAS There are two official bodies, the BPA and the IAS. If you are unsure, please check HERE   Notice to Keeper.pdf
    • It never seems to amaze me how the chuckleheads think that No Stopping can ever offer a contract when it is prohibitory. In any case you did not accept the contract by entering the land, you entered the land to get to the airport for goodness sake. In most car parks there is a Consideration period that allows motorists to decide whether they want to stay in the car park . Here on a road, there is no consideration period and whether the motorist finds the terms agreeable or not even assuming that they are able to understand that they are being hoodwinked into believing they are being offered a  contract they cannot turn back. They have a plane to catch and even if they did turn back because they didn't accept the  No Stopping term of   the so called contract they would still have had to stop to turn around. Plus there is a question of Frustration of Contract. You had to stop at a pedestrian crossing .    
    • Just a couple paragraphs their WS that it might be useful to refer to specifically in the OP's WS... Para 6 A contract was formed with "the driver" of the vehicle. Para 8 "The driver" accepted the contract. (The "driver" is not named, or identified anywhere in the WS). Para 7 WHY would there ever be a "no stopping" restriction in a car park? (In Para 10, they specify that it is a "car park"). Para 11 "The Defendant" became liable." Again, they have not shown that the Defendant was "the driver", simply the keeper. Para 20 "It is a matter of agreement"? Not really sure what they're trying to say here...

    • 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.

Tony Connelly of RTE has a Twitter thread about the letter sent yesterday from Maros Sefcovic to Michael Gove about being asked to rewrite the agreement from the end of last year.

 

Tony thinks Sefcovic is playing hardball and you can see that he's pointing out various actions that the UK hasn't carried out as promised since signing the agreement.

Not at all

I'm quite positive that would be the case

 

But the Tory populists are learning ...

Learning they can get away with more every week.

That PPE:

"Suffolk County Council said 5.9 million products failed to comply with UK safety standards, which was more than half the items checked.

It found nearly all hand sanitiser consignments did not comply."

and in addition to the 5% increase in council tax which will hit the poorest hardest

The plans could cost the average family £250 per year by 2024-25

I know we paid them an obscene amount but it wasn't in the £trillions

as you seem to have missed it, the figure referred is

Rishi Sunak ‘plotting £6bn raid on personal tax allowances’

a total of a little over a quarter of the 22 BILLIONish spent on just the PPE mentioned here, with apparently half of that PPE duff as tested.

Just get that half that squandered PPE cost back from the Tory selected suppliers and you would have almost double the amount Sunack is planning on grabbing form the poorest BRITISH public

 

When you also take into account that 4 times the rate was paid for the crap/undelivered PPE from those specially selected Tory populist pals ... there would even be money to feed hungry british kids - not that the Tory populist **** would.

In fact just the £20 million plus  one middleman referred that got over 20 million for crap .. that one persons 'bonus' alone would have been 20% of the money needed to feed hungry British kids that the Tory populist **** voted against.

 

The bottom line is that Johnson and Hancock bypassed proper tender processes and shunted money to their carefully selected pals outside a transparent tender process

 

 

and permanently removing the transparent tender process which was bypassed in wasting billions is part of the planned NHS reorganisation

It should start hitting the headlines in not too long.

£6bn is nowhere near the £trillions we are in debt.

 

it matters not where the money has gone. There was a moan about tax increases and a suggestion that the debt be paid back using the Brexit Dividend.

It has to be repaid so if not by tax increases then how ??

Of course it does if the services the money was paid for have NOT been delivered - Get the money back rather than have the taxpayer pay both the original sum and interest for years

 

... and get rid of the incompetent numpties who misused it  before they waste more.

Brexit is causing problems for companies up and down the country. The added costs have meant that some business is no longer profitable and UK companies will lose consumer trade in EU market to companies based in EU market. 

 

This was talked about during the Brexit debate, but was labelled as "project fear",  but now is "Brexit reality". Over the next few years the UK will suffer during a period of adjustment as it tries to work out how to fix the economic conditions to enable UK businesses to be competitive. This is going to be very expensive at a time when Covid-19 has caused a 10% drop in GDP and record Government borrowing.
