    • Oh I see! thats confusing, for some reason the terms and conditions that Evri posted in that threads witness statement are slightly different than the t&cs on packlinks website. Their one says enter into a contract with the transport agency, but the website one says enter into a contract with paclink. via website: (c) Each User will enter into a contract with Packlink for the delivery of its Goods through the chosen Transport Agency. via evri witness statement in that thread: (c) Each User shall then enter into its own contract with the chosen Transport Agency. Packlink does not have any control over, and disclaims all liability that may arise in contracts between a User and a Transport Agency I read your post at #251, so I should use the second one (and changing the screenshot in the court bundle), since I am saying I have a contract with Evri? Is that correct EDIT: Oh I understand the rest of your conversation. you're saying if I was to do this i would have to fully adjust my ws to use the consumer rights act instead of rights of third parties. In that case should I just edit the terms and stick with the third parties plan?. And potentially if needed just bring up the CRA in the hearing, as you guys did in that thread  
    • First, those are the wrong terms,  read posts 240-250 of the thread ive linked to Second donough v stevenson should be more expanded. You should make refernece to the three fold duty of care test as well. Use below as guidance: The Defendant failed its duty of care to the Claimant. As found in Donoghue v Stevenson negligence is distinct and separate to any breach of contract. Furthermore, as held in the same case there need not be a contract between the Claimant and the Defendant for a duty to be established, which in the case of the Claimant on this occasion is the Defendant’s duty of care to the Claimant’s parcel whilst it is in their possession. By losing the Claimant’s parcel the Defendant has acted negligently and breached this duty of care. As such the Claimant avers that even if it is found that the Defendant not be liable in other ways, by means of breach of contract, should the court find there is no contract between Claimant and Defendant, the Claimant would still have rise to a claim on the grounds of the Defendant’s negligence and breach of duty of care to his parcel whilst it was in the Defendant’s possession, as there need not be a contract to give rise to a claim for breach of duty of care.  The court’s attention is further drawn to Caparo Industries plc v Dickman (1990), 2 AC 605 in which a three fold test was used to determine if a duty of care existed. The test required that: (i) Harm must be a reasonably foreseeable result of the defendant’s conduct; (ii) A relationship of proximity must exist and (iii) It must be fair, just and reasonable to impose liability.  
    • Thank you. here's the changes I made 1) removed indexed statement of truth 2) added donough v Stevenson in paragraph 40, just under the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 paragraph about reasonable care and skill. i'm assuming this is a good place for it? 3) reworded paragraph 16 (now paragraph 12), and moved the t&cs paragraphs below it then. unless I understood you wrong it seems to fit well. or did you want me to remove the t&cs paragraphs entirely? attached is the updated draft, and thanks again for the help.

    • 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.

Hello all (friends old and new!)

 

It's been some years since I've been on CAG and pleased to say that most of my debts have now become statute barred and dropped off the earth :-)

My credit report is shot but I don't need or want credit.

 

On Thursday 6th October, I received a Claim Form N1SDT from Arrow Global, solicitors Shoosmiths, for £2663 owing to M&S.

 

After digging out my files from the garage, the basic history is:-

 

Card applied for and issued in May 2007. Their letter states, sign, date and return the green copy of the cc agreement, you keep the yellow one. So presumably (?!) they have that one.

 

By April 2009 I had fallen into arrears and on 1st May 2009 they accepted a £20 p.m. repayment plan for 1 year.

 

By September 2009 I was in serious trouble with priority bills so wrote to them explaining this and offered £1 p.m.

 

(See thread http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?192830-AA99-amp-Bankruptcy )

 

13 October 2009 M&S accepted £1 p.m. to March 2010 and they wrote on 25 March confirming payments complete under this plan and to phone them re the balance. They have never charged interest.

 

In May 2010 they accepted a further payment arrangement of £1 p.m. until May 2011.

 

I received a letter dated 8 July 2010 saying that Rockwell would be managing the ongoing payment arrangement in partnership with them and I was to continue making the £1 payments to M&S until Rockwell contacted me.

 

I continued to pay £1 p.m. until May 2011 but can find absolutely no correspondence from Rockwell.

 

We were evicted from our house in January 2012 and had post forwarded for 6 months.

 

In the paperwork I do have, which is when the DCA's tracked me down to my new address is from Arrow in July 2014, Notice of Assignment to them using Wescot.

 

February 2015 letter from Scotcall

 

August 2015 letter from Arrow advising DCA is now Moorcroft

 

September 2015 2 letters from Moorcroft

 

October 2016 N1 received.

 

Could I please ask for assistance in returning the form, also the time factors. Many thanks

 

I am completing the AOS online but do not know if I tick the box saying I intend to contest jurisdiction.

 

Please advise :-)

 

OK, I just googled it and no, I don't need to tick that box.

 

So I have filed my AOS.

Now I have 28 days to file my defence.

 

I send Arrow a CPR letter?

Copy to Shoosmiths?

Excellent, thanks dx. I've gone rusty in the last 5 years.

 

Also wondered why this is the only debtor not showing on my credit report?

 

CCA is still £1 postal order, and no payment required for CPR?

 

Proof of posting for both or recorded?

 

No signatures from me, or sign over grey XXXXXXXXXXXX

time limits are immaterial when a court claim has been issued as such.

 

 

you file on time regardless

if they've not coughed then it will be the holding/no paperwork defence

available on numerous threads here and in the legal successes forum off this one.

Thanks dx

 

I spent a long time trying to find a holding/no paperwork defence letter and hope this is the right one........ I have to file by Friday 4th.

 

1. This claim is for £XXXX the amount due under an agreement between the original creditor and the defendant to provide finance.

2. This debt was assigned to Arrow Global Ltd on 28th March 2014.

 

Particulars

 

Re: Marks & Spencer Financial Services plc

A/C No. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

The claimant claims £XXXXXX

Defence

 

1. The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.

 

2. The claim is denied with regards to an amount due under an agreement. The Claimant/Solicitor has refused to disclose any agreement or statements on which its claim relies upon.

 

3. Paragraph 2 is denied I am unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment.

 

4. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of assignment/balance/breach requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to:

 

(a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement with the Claimant; and

(b) show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for; and

© show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim;

 

5. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed.

 

6. On the alternative, if the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

7. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

 

The POC state in 1. that notice of the assignment has been provided to the defendant.

in 2. that a default notice has been served.

In 4. that C has complied, as far as is necessary, with the pre-action conduct practice direction.

 

Should I not refer somewhere to the solicitors' letter stating You are not a party to the agreement they have with the seller, MBNA Europe Bank Limited, and are not entitled to a copy of the Deed of Assignment
