    • Yes you should take this view, but this is nothing to worry about you will be fine. you have a very well edited WX im sure although I haven't actually looked at it because I can't seem to work out which one is the new one anymore, although I do remember something previously. however if i remember it right its just a lost parcel via packlink and no insurance which frankly is pretty straightforward and should be a copy of farooq v evri. Have I understood the case right? Please tell me if not as there is rather a lot on this forum
    • well in every other thread advocate or not evri always send a cpr27.9 because they never turn up. I don't think we've seen a thread here without one. Maybe @BankFodder can tell me if i've missed one, but all of the ones I can remember there has been a cpr 27.9 notice even when an advocate has attended and from my own knowledge also I've always had CPR 27.9 advocate or not. I dont think there is a single thread on this forum where evri have shown up themselves and similarly I don't think there is a single thread where they dont send notice (aside from this)
    • OK, thanks.  Jake Burgess is well known to us - and well despised. Friday would be great as then there would be the weekend to tweak things. 👍
    • Thanks FTMDave.  VCS's WS was from Jake Burgess.  I will draft my WS and share with copies of court order, and VCS's exhibits asap.  I'm away tomorrow so more likely Friday.  Thanks again for the advice   
    • Thanks. Time to move on this. 1.  You need to tweak the magnificent WS that dx suggested.  Adapt it to your case.  It should take you about half an hour (I recently wrote a WS from scratch during a train journey which wasn't optimum 😂 with lots of cross referencing and it took me an hour an half, you have one already cooked thanks to dx). 2.  We will add bits to ridicule VCS's WS - it's rich that they moan about your defence being standard when their Particulars of Claim are too and also include the rubbish about keeper/driver that has been criticised numerous times by the courts. 3.  Who wrote their WS?  Was it Mohammed Wali or Ambreen Arshad or have they got someone new? 4.  We need to see a good chunk of VCS's exhibits.  I don't get why we have to keep asking you for things rather than them being volunteered.  Isn't it obvious that we can't help you compile a decent WS if we can't see what the other side is arguing?  All their silly signs aren't needed, but any contract with the landowner is important as are all the photos of your vehicle. 5.  You've never shown us the court order which fixes the hearing date.  It should be obvious we need to see what the court has ordered.  This is the second time we've asked. 6.  VCS were using Elms Legal.  Are Elms Legal still involved?

    • 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.

Hi all its been a long time since I've posted.

 

I worked at this agency since 2014 and was suspended without pay over a safeguarding issue.

 

Due to stress and anxiety I went on to statutory sick pay and the employer went quiet.

 

I wrote to them recently and they responded that the case is on hold and I have to come off the sick for the case to proceed.

 

At the moment I'm thinking along the lines of an Employment tribunal as I think that they are behaving very unfairly.

 

I don't really want to stay with them over the way that they have treated me but I just don't know what to do next and am worried sick about having no money at all.

 

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Suspension without pay? Is this allowed in your contract?

 

What would be your grounds for an ET case? Exactly what are you being accused of?

Any advice given is done so on the assumption that recipients will also take professional advice where appropriate.

Hi,

 

if you are off sick with stress reated things they may be trying not to add to it by not making you have a hearing right now. Have you tried asking your doctor for a fit note saying you are ok to attend meetings about the issue?

Never assume anyone on the internet is who they say they are. Only rely on advice from insured professionals you have paid for!

Its a zero hours contract... I've been accused of lifting someone up rather than supporting them up as they stood themselves to stabilise them (I did the latter as they can stand independently but they were unsteady as they were unsettled behaviour wise).

 

No they said that they would resume the investigation when I'm signed fit, which means that they will go straight from the beginning. The problem is if I'm signed as fit due to the zero hours contract I won't get any pay.

how long how you been with them for? It seems to me that suspension was excessive. could not just talk to you?

 

Since 2014 so comfortably over 2 years. They did speak to me and then suspended me. I think the manager has a grudge against me tbh.

 

Anyway a written complaint has been made against them and my doctor is aware of the whole situation...

so you have employees rights. suspension should be paid. what's in your contract.it's fishy.you're punished while they breach emloyment law in not paying you.

I'm officially on a zero hours contract through them and they have made no offer of payment. I haven't seen the contract as such so I'm not really sure. They have been paying me SSP due to the stress and anxiety this is causing. Their attitude towards me was 'can't I borrow some money off people?'

 

Anyway a written complaint has now been made to them with the threat of an employment tribunal.
