    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

The guy has actually been an utter blight on the UK and the hopes of working people.

 

 

 

and he continues to be an utter blight on the labour party, trying to hang on to power through awarding permanent posts to his people who refuse to even acknowledge they are the source of the failures, and Long-live-Corbyn-Bailey using the parties resources to promote Corbynism despite only getting about 5000 votes in momentems heavily weighted pre-defined ballot of its 40,000 members.

 

 

Bloody disgrace.

 

 

I have major doubts even a resounding victory for Starmer will stop the rot.

Thats not what the voters have said is it Jase?

 

How many years was Blair in power ... ?

What did the voters show of their opinion of Corbyn?

- They don't want him no matter what the other choice might be.

 

Any real doubts that had a 'Blair been leading labour against May/Johnson it would have been anything other than a labour victory?

May would never have called that election where she lost her majority at least - she would have lost the government.

 

In fact, any real doubts of almost anyone else being Labour leader would see the leave vote winning?

I don't. Not for a second.

 

The guy has actually been an utter blight on the UK and the hopes of working people.

 

 

 

I feel we are just going round in circles with this debate, and you have your entrenched viewpoint, which I respect.  It is your view.  I just disagree on some points because, to reiterate, Labour still won as many votes as Blair did in 2002.  The Brexit situation split the vote, and I don't personally understand why you can't take on board that this election was unique as a lot of Labour voters turned to the Tories because of Brexit.  I also don't understand how anyone can not see the role of the media in setting the anti Corbyn narrative.  It is a fact that people largely get their information from news sources, and it is also a fact that the media representation was majorly anti Corbyn, or at least leaning against Labour.  I don't see how someone can't see the correlation between a wholly negative media campaign and the notion that Corbyn would be very very "bad" for the country.

 

Ask a lot of people why he would have been bad for the country and you get some vague BS about taking us back to the 1970's (Something suggested by Tory politicians and media outlets), or some nonsense about "bankrupting the country" (Again, merely repeating what some Tory politicians and media outlets have told them, without being able to coherently describe why their economic strategy would ruin us all)

 

Your viewpoint seems to be that he's after power.  I would argue that a man who has spent 40 years on the backbenches arguing against the policies of even his own party suggests otherwise.  Unfortunately Corbyn has had to come to the realisation that when you get to the top in the current power vacuum, principles largely have to go out the window, and your opponents will come after you like never before.  Take the media campaign about Corbyn being a terrorist as an example - 40 years an MP with access to sensitive material, yet no doubts were raised until AFTER he becomes a real threat.

 

I think even Blair would have lost this election, especially given Iraq severely blighted his premiership.

 

You're also under the illusion that I am some sort of Corbyn fan boy.  I'm not.  I support the truth, and take a reasoned viewpoint on any situation.  I had never voted Labour prior to 2015.

The real justifications for intervention against Saddam Hussein were solid,

some of the reasons stated in Parliament closed meetings that came to light were not. and the follow up implementation was not.

Buckthorn, hope you are your family are not one of the first stuck down by listera and/or salmonella from inadequately bleached and unlabelled Chicken from the United States of Listeria - I certainly hope none of my loved ones suffer

.. you do know the yanks reserve the good bleached stuff with genuine 'bleach quality' assurances and labelling for their home market  ..

 

 

mind you, theres a rumour that American organisms have developed a level of immunity to bleach, salmonella and listeria due to it being so prevalent in their food chain

 

Lets hope this isn't the New World getting its revenge for us taking smallpox and syphilis for which the indigenous population had no resistance  ...

 

 

"Investigation, by a team of microbiologists from Southampton University and published in the US journal mBio, found that bacilli such as listeria and salmonella remain completely active after chlorine washing. The process merely makes it impossible to culture them in the lab, giving the false impression that the chlorine washing has been effective. "

 

" Previous studies with similar findings have been dismissed by the US poultry industry as producing “laboratory-only” results with no relevance to the real world. “We therefore tested the strains of listeria and salmonella that we had chlorine-washed on nematodes [roundworms], which have a relatively complex digestive system,” said Professor William Keevil, who led the university team.

“All of them died. "

Sorry to reappear after a long pause.

I just wanted to say: "I TOLD YOU!".

Brexit has happened as I predicted and despite all the effort in stopping it.

Now for the next 2 predictions:

1. In 5 years time our economy would've grown faster than any other European country. 

2. In 15 years time the EU in its present form will cease to exist.

 

 

See you later.

Well, as you are back again, despite your claims (LOL) ...

care to fill in some real detail, you know - like we keep asking?

All your other one-liners have quickly been debunked - by people who do remember the reality of the issues of the past.

 

"2. In 15 years time the EU in its present form will cease to exist."

Obviously - as the UK possibly wont be a part of it and others who aren't yet - will be

 

"1. In 5 years time our economy would've grown faster than any other European country. "

So fill in some meaningful and supported detail driving your expectations?

 

So where is this growth going to come from?

* the magic fairy dust tree?

* Cummings steam punk fantasies seemingly based on reading HG Wells while stoned and thinking they are real?

- or just massively increasing the countries debt mountain (as they said Labour would do) - but to give to their own privateering mates?

-

 

 

.. We will of course again see a temporary boom as companies spend to mitigate the damage of Brexit - many apparently by moving - particularly the financial services and assets that are so much of our 'economy' even if real folk see little from it.

(Like we did with stockpiling before - my what a boom and boon to the country)

 

So come on - Some detail

Tobyjugg2, unfortunately most of my posts are censored,  so i can't reply and will go away again as clearly i'm not welcome on this forum.

You seem to talk down to everyone by using cut and paste rubbish and trying to show tha above us all.

What you should look at is FACTS.

First of all is the fact that you were convinced brexit would be stopped, i said it will go ahead.

In case you don't know, Brexit happened, exactly as I told you.

You were wrong but insist in saying that you are right.

I made my 2 predictions and from your answers it is clear that you haven't got a clue about basic economic and financial matters.

I hope you see this post before is censored. 

My advice to you is to anchor your feet to the ground and look out of your window, good luck with your delusion.
