    • If it doesn’t sell easily : what they can get at an auction becomes fair market price, which may not realise what you are hoping.
    • Thank you. The receiver issue is a rabbit hole I don't think I'm going to enjoy going down. These people seem so protected. And I don't understand how or why?  Fair market value seems to be ever shifting and contentious.
    • You can't, but you can (and really should) bring up the point that the lender isn't meeting their legal obligations in selling the property for fair market value. You'll have to do this in court, though.     A receiver is bought in by the lender, not you. If they're a registered insolvency practitioner, you may be able to raise a complaint to the insolvency service but there are no guarantees here. Many receivers are also registered with the RICS and self-regulate so if you know the name of the receiver you can check there, again no guarantees.   https://www.rics.org/surveyor-careers/career-development/accreditations/registered-property-receivership-scheme

    • Lolerz - I don't understand you.  Rebuked you?   No. I simply replied to your orange comments with legal facts as I know them.  I've already worked through the s42 and s146 issues - over the last 3-4y - and these issues are (mostly) resolved legally.  In terms of posting evidence.  Sure I can post some.  But my most recent questions have been a) how can I enforce a sale before trial?  And b) how can I make a complaint and/or a claim v receiver? (E.g. to which body do I complain?).  At the mo I'm asking for some helpful pointers on those specific questions??  I'm not asking for help with how to prove or present evidence. Fwiw - all evidence for trial has been disclosed (although additions are poss). The lender sent me like 10,000 emails and docs.  There's also 000s of emails, docs, photos, videos, recordings and texts that relate to freeholders/ me.   I read, filed and categorised everything for ease of future reference.  Witness statements and evidence were prepared for trial in the 42 and 146 matters. (now joined with current claim to save duplication).  I've lived the process before.  My current statement and linked evidence has taken like 6 months to draft/ write - to ensure I can succinctly prove my defence and counterclaim points.   Whether I can convince a judge at trial w/o lawyer / barrister is debatable 🙄   But I've prepared.  And continue to try better prepare - which is why I visit this site (and clinics).  This is NOT my business or expertise at all.  I'm just trying.  Not that anyone should ever have to justify why they need help if they ask politely!

    • 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 enquired about joining BT in December.

 

 

While I was still with TT they kept sending me 'don't leave, speak to our loyalty team to see what they can do' messages...so I did.

 

28 Dec - agreed a new deal

 

10 Jan - not heard anything so rang them.

New deal hasn't been processed because I'd 'missed Jan's payment'

(it's DD so it's their fault they didn't take it!) made me pay Jan's bill there on the phone.

Couldn't talk about new deal because payment hasn't been processed

 

12 Jan - they rang me back & agreed new deal.

 

Later that day I received confirmation email of package....it's completely different to what we agreed on the phone!!

 

14 Jan - they stop my internet & phone.

 

Turns out they've 'processed a cancellation' from the beginning of all this mess..

.even though I stayed with them!!!

 

I've paid Jan's bill for them to cut me off!!!!

 

The new deal I've agreed starts on 26 Jan

- and I keep getting letters emails about the package I'm having and they're all different!!!!!

communicaions co's are rubbish at just that. One of the problems of phone problems is that you need a phone and internet to sort them out

Your post tile sayTT and my daughter, whose account is it and do you have access to a phone system?

I would be looking up the CEO of Talktalk (used to be Dido harding) andsending them notice that if thi isnt sorted out by the end of jan you wll leave TT and take court action to recover your monies for the last month plus whatever costs you have incurred

Can't you talk to your bank and ask them to refund you, surely you can't expect to pay for something you haven't received?

 

Think she's sorted now thank you.Been offered some compo and wifi is working.

Hi,

 

phatram's daughter here.

 

I have had an ongoing complaint with TalkTalk dating back to 28 December 2016.

 

To cut a long story very short; they cancelled my service incorrectly, agreed new 'go-live' dates that never happened, booked engineer visits that never happened or arrived late, kept sending me details of different packages they were signing me up to and NOW, we finally have a 'fibre' service that is running at 7Mb. An engineer came out on Friday, only to find that I haven't been switched to Fibre at all and my service is still running on ADSL!! :-x

 

In short, I have contacted the Communications Ombudsman, but I am after some advice about how much compensation I should be seeking for all this mess.

 

Is there an 'hourly' charge, or charge per 'email' or 'phonecall' (the majority of it is in writing) I can invoice them for all the time I have spent trying to sort out this mess? I have sent them at least daily email for the past 8 weeks!

 

Also, I was advised that I would be charged £65 for a missed appointment fee if I was not in when the engineer came...then he didn't come. So can I reverse this charge to them for wasting my time?

 

I am staying in tomorrow again for an engineer visit promised between 1-6pm - so we'll see if that happens!

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

In short, you can't charge them anything, UNLESS you take them to court.

 

If you really want to kick them in the crown jewels, then vote with your feet, and go with one of their rivals, TT really are the dregs of the telecomms community, if they're not losing your personal data, then they're ensuring you get the best of their well documented customer diservice.

 

My advice is to get rid.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

you can charge your time for a missed appointment, generally it will be successful if they have already missed one and you can prove that staying in a second time has cost you lost earnings or holiday. If you are on flexi or self employed you generally dont get a bean.
