    • Paragraph 2. I think there should be further down and also you should make the point that the payment to was made unilaterally and without the imposition of any conditions. Paragraph 3 – this is unnecessary because you are not claiming as an entitled third-party. This worries me because it makes me feel that you haven't fully read around because this is a paragraph which you would include where you were suing EVRi as a beneficial third party because you had actually made your contract with Packlink or some other broker. I think you need to revisit and do some more reading. I'm afraid I have a sense that you have simply copied this from somebody else's witness statement without understanding that it wasn't necessary. Please can you post the amended draft. Other than the suggestions above, it looks okay – but let's see it again for a further appraisal. In terms of the evidence, parties bundle, I think it might be an idea to start off with the correspondence with EVRi and then go onto the other evidence. You will have to amend the index page accordingly. You could shorten this bit. Take 19 is pretty well blank and you may as well miss it out also, there seems to be some repetition of emails and the email chain. I think will be worth going through and getting rid of duplicates if you can. 49 pages is a bit long and it would be a good idea to try and reduce the number. I have a feeling that 50 pages as the County Court limit anyway. The judge will be happier with you if the bundle is smaller. Maybe you could reduce the size of some of the images or messages et cetera. You have got several messages which straddle onto a second page so that things like sign off information and standard confidentiality information become orphans. A bit of manipulation and they could be joined to their parents I think. Page 31 as an example. So is page 19. You may only be up to shorten the whole thing by 56 pages – but I think it would be a good idea. 56 pages is, after all, 10%. If you can do more then so much the better

    • 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.

I recently, and very stupily, stole an item worth £25 from a Morrisons store.

 

I was challenged at the door by the store detective accompanied by security person and store manager.

 

I was taken to a room and when showed evidence (the empty wrapping) i admitted the theft.

I offered to pay which was accepted and i paid with cash.

 

My name and address was obtained and recorded and

 

i was was issued with a letter barring me from all Morrisons stores.

 

A feel dreadful about this, but more anxious about the possibility of receiving a 'fine' from the firm of solicitors DWF.

 

What is the lilelihood of this given that i paid for the item?

 

 

Thank you in advance.

My first time using this forum.

So not sure if i am doing this correctly?.

 

My main concern is receiving a letter at home.

 

My partner is suffering enough without this added stress.

 

Any tips?

it will be a letter in an enveolope, not a brass band outside your house. The matter has been dealt with by you paying for the item and the store banning you. Nothing and no-one else has anything to add to this that is lawful

 

First time I have smiled today. The thought of a brass band!!!

Hi and welcome.

Now that Morrisons have passed the file to DWF, they will have washed their hands of you and as such will not get involved further. It would be pointless to contact the manager or offer any donation.

DWF are a solicitor and the letters will look official but they are the same as any letter from their rival, RLP. In over 4 years, there has never been any court claim regarding losses caused by shoplifting. At the top of this forum is a sticky which I did that should explain a little further and although that is aimed at RLP, the rules are the same.

 

DWF will send a letter demanding around £150 for security costs. They cannot claim this, simple as.

 

When you get it, let us know and we can rip it apart. There is nothing you can do to stop the letters apart from paying them which is something we do not recommend, mainly as two wrongs do not make a right. They have no legal grounds to claim anything. Morrisons have not lost out so there can be no claim.

 

All we say is, don't do it again.

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.

Everything I say is opinion only. If you are unsure on any comment made, you should see a qualified solicitor

Thank you Silver fox. Much appreciated . This act will never be repeated. I was in such a horrid position I cannot recall much of the event. I feel I only woke up when the store detective approached me. I am so grateful for yours and other's replies.

Just ignore any letters from DWF. Do not go sending letters to morrisons as they wont let you back. Find another supermarket to shop at and move on with your life, and dont do it again!

Just a thought. You say your partner is going through some things at the moment. While this may seem a bad idea, it may help if you say something so that when the letters arrive, you will not have to hide them. You also mention that your memory was off. Have you been to see your GP? Is it possible your partners issues are having a detrimental affect on you?

Sometimes it will help to talk to a real person and your GP will treat what you say in confidence.

We could do with some help from you.
