    • A never ending torrent of **it Outrage as ‘tidal wave’ of sewage floods historic market town’s unique chalk river WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK Exclusive: Water firm pumps sewage into river Misbourne, Amersham on 21 ‘dry days’ during nearly five month period  
    • Worth noting that all of these firms - either the alleged EIS investment, the rebate company themselves or the payee were all registered to the same address. Clavering House is 3 miles away from HMRC Benton Park view offices.   Wardrop - unfortunately unsuccessful due to late appeal - assessments opened by HMRC in March 2019. Scammed by Richard Hall (Capital allowances consultants ltd - Clavering House) investments into Cryoblast Limited 15/16 (Paul Huggins - Clavering House) and Eco Cooling solutions 16/17 (Anthony Fitches - Clavering House).    Mccuminsky - scammed by Capital Allowances after providing his details to Stefan Brown Alpha Tax Consultants (Clavering House) payment made to Eco Cooling Solutions.    Robson - scammed by Capital Allowances - 15/16 paid to Cryoblast 16/17 paid to Eco Cooling.    Myself - scammed by Allan Maxwell - MaxTax (other business Maxwell electronics) registered to Clavering House.   Cryoblast Solutions and Fast Tax - Alan O’Hara    Please note there are two Cryoblasts involved - Cryoblast limited (Paul Huggins and Clavering House) and Cryoblast Solutions Limited (Alan O’Hara also director of Fast Tax).    My return simply said “Cryoblast” another thing that should have been clarified as part of HMRC guidelines before paying out the claim.    Cryoblast limited was already suspected to be involved in fraudulent claims before my investment as Huntly had open assessments issued in November 2018.    Cryoblast Solutions, the same company director as Fast Tax where my money was sent was dissolved before my claims were submitted.

    • dont need them.   let the defendant play the terms game
    • I am reading the thread now and think although its probably very similar to my predicament,  I have no way of obtaining the terms anymore due to MyParcelDelivery having being dissolved and their website not being active now. I have nothing to quote from and they didn't send me a copy at the time of order, the website that I believe they reinvented themselves as P4D has terms I am looking at now but however similar they may be I wont be able to quote from them in this case. Thanks

    • 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 put my house on the market at the beginning of December 2016.

Last week I received an offer from a prospective buyer that I accepted.

Lovely I thought so I rapidly contacted a company of solicitors in Stockport

to appoint them for conveyancing.

The paperwork from the solicitors arrived here this morning and lists

all the things I must provide for the conveyancing to progress.

However, the paperwork insists that I must provide photo ID either by photo

driving licence or passport.

I don't have a driving licence or a passport so I am unable to provide photo ID.

Does this mean that I can't sell my house or is there some other way around this

issue? I don't want to apply for a passport as I never travel and I don't want to start

taking driving lessons to obtain a driving licence that I don't want or need.

Requirement for photo ID is part of the obligation on the conveyancer regarding anti-(money laundering).

 

You can apply for a passport ; you don't have to use it to travel abroad.

 

You can apply for a driving licence (& don't have to take lessons!)

(You need a licence to take driving lessons : you don't have to take lessons when you have a licence).

 

If you have a medical condition that means a driving licence would be refused, you can still get a passport.

 

(Obscure factoid : before driving licenses had photo's, a firearm certificate was one of the few official documents that had name, address & photo!)

Speak to a Solicitors and you can probably just swear a declaration to confirm who you are. They will probably need to see driving licence, Bank cards in your name and copies of recent utility bills.

We could do with some help from you.

If the OP had a driving licence they could just use that.

They don't, and have said they don't want to apply for one ....

A friend just told me I could obtain a passport photo from a photo booth and take it to my GP who would sign

to say it is an accurate likeness. Is that correct?

 

Sorry, i meant a birth certificate, not driving licence in my earlier post.

 

The Estate Agent just wants some proof you are the home owner that is selling.

 

I am sure if you spoke to a Solicitors that you want to use for conveyancing, they will explain what you need to do. If you pick a local Solicitors, they probably know the Estate Agents and you should not have a problem.

 

Your GP will normally charge you something like £10 min to sign a letter/photo confirming your identity. And it might take them days, if they are busy.

OK thanks for your advice, much appreciated. I do actually have my original birth certificate despite

it being nearly 60 years old ! Only 40 years to go for my telegram from the Queen !

Doctors got fed up with counter-signing for photo ID for passports.

They can no longer do so for patients (this was something the doctors requested via the BMA!), but can do so for friends.

Dentists and pharmacists can still counter-sign for patients as well as friends.

I doubt this will work. They don't say a driving licence or passport or sworn declaration. It had to be an official photo id.

And also, the op has already said he does NOT have a driving licence. The solicitor would be unlikely to sign a declaration anyway without being happy who he actually is.

Of course it will. You don't need photo ID to sell a house. You just need to satisfy the Estate Agent and Solicitors that you are the houseowner stated on the title deeds.

If the OP already has a business relationship with a local solicitor, it may be worth getting them to handle the conveyancing.

No... you can't eat my brain just yet. I need it a little while longer.

Thanks Unclebulgaria for your post. Well the two local Estate Agents that marketed my house were fully

satisfied that I am the house owner named on the deeds. I intended to use the estate agents conveyancing service but dscovered it was more than twice the price of the service offered by a solicitros in Stockport.

Well blow me down. I rang my conveyancing solicitors in Stockport this morning and told them I had

no form of photo ID. They said not to worry, a recent utility bill and my birth certificate will be sufficient

for proof of identity.

Therefore their demands for photo ID stated on their paperwork are total tosh.

What a relief.
