    • I have just read the smaller print on their signs. It says that you can pay at the end of your parking session. given that you have ten minutes grace period the 35 seconds could easily have been taken up with walking back to your car, switching on the engine and then driving out. Even in my younger days when I used to regularly exceed speed limits, I doubt I could have done that in 35 seconds even when I  had a TR5.

    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.

    • 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.

Good Morning Caggers

 

I got 2 letters through my door today stipulating that I have 2 outstanding debts (I DON'T) to PAYDAYUK and THE MONEY SHOP. :-x

 

These have been sold on to BW Legal, and (obviously) I can't get through to them on the phone to tell then that my identity has been stolen. :x

 

What is the correct process with this. I have not had any letter from PAYDAYUK and THE MONEY SHOP, demanding monies. I only have 2 letters delivered on the same day which state they have sold the debt to PRAC/BW Legal.

 

How do I defend my credit report and my identity? :mad2:

 

It is worth adding.....that I have never ever taken out a loan with either of these jokers.

 

I have just spoken to BW Legal and they said that I would have to go through security to check who I was. I told them;

 

My name; It Matched

My address; It Matched

My dOB: IT DOES NOT MATCH.

 

So clearly somebody has stolen my identity without putting in the correct DOB.

 

What do I do from this point,

as I can't speak to the original Loanee,

as they have sold the debt to the DCA ((BW Legal (used to be Lowell)).....

...and I can't speak to the DCA as I don't pass security as my DOB is different to the original person who fraudulently took these out in the first place......

 

Many Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi

I suggest contacting ActionFraud just to get a reference number to pass on to BWL

 

WRITE a letter to them and state that this is ID fraud, give them the reference number and suggest they return it to their client as you will not be held responsible for another persons fraudulent action.

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

Hi Worsteve

 

Im also in your position. I have been dealing with BW legal for a little while and PRAT Financial... (Yes i spelt it wrong for a reason)

Keep it for now. ITs time to send a SAR off to TMS / PDUK - I also have had fraud issues with them and they refuse to accept it.

 

You need to get as much info as possible. Once done, come back and let us know and we can advise next.

 

We could do with some help from you.

Good Morning all

I will do exactly that then. SAR will be sent off first thing tomorrow. Very much appreciated. The money shop e-mailed me and asked me what my D.O.B. was........I wasn't going to tell them that so they could change their details.

 

Should I do anything with my CRN number?

 

Brgds to one and all.

One thing I do know is that the Date of Birth they have on file both at the Loanee's and the DCA......do not match my actual DOB.

 

SAR all done and will be sent off to PAYDAYUK and TMS. Should I send one off to PRAT as well?

If you have never had these type of loans with these companies, then if it were me, i would obtain the CRN and send it to BW Legal by recorded post in a letter explaining the situation in your letter.

 

I suspect that it is not identity fraud, but someone from a DCA or tracing company that has got the wrong person/address. Given that the DOB is wrong, then the original loans would have been given to someone who shares your name, but a different DOB. They would have done a credit check on this other person at the time of the loan. They have then defaulted and disappeared off radar. Fast forward months or years and some space cadet at a DCA or tracing company, has written down your address as a possible for this debtor. Which is why they have wriiten to your address.

 

I would suggest you check your credit record fully and report back here if you find anything.

 

I can't see it is worth wasting time/money on an SAR. Your DOB does not match, they have traced the wrong person and in theory you would fail a basic security check, so should not be sent the SAR data.

Morning Uncle Bulgaria

 

My credit record is clear of any misdemeanours no both Creditfile and Noddle. My score is high and that is good! Should I send a copy of my Passport to BW Legal then? Right now, they say I fail the security check so can't access their information.

 

I too feel like some jobsworth has just found someone with the same name and attached it to me and my address.

 

Many Thanks for your continued support ! :-)

You could just send BW Legal a photocopy of your passport page, saying that someone has traced the wrong person and you insist on compensation for your expenses in resolving their error. Advise that unless they send a written apology with appropriate compensation, you will make a formal complaint to the Solicitors Regulatory Authority and the ICO relating to this misconduct.

Hi Uncle Bulgaria

 

I am happy to send the SAR to the Loanee's to ensure I get the correct information on DOB. I will also send a letter with a copy of my passport page to BW Legal, proving that I am not the owner of those loans as you state above. I am happy to insist on compensation to go with it as well!! :wink:

 

Thanks again as always

The SAR should fail as you are not the person the data relates to. I doubt they will send you anything, but they might bank the £10.

Agreed however any refusal to supply can be used as evidence they have the wrong person. If they had the right person, they would no problem supplying the data.

 

I would suggest to BWL that they refer this back to their client as this is a clear case of fraud and should their client continue this fruitless case a claim for breaching the Data Protection Act may follow.

Good Morning Caggers

 

So then, all was done bar the SAR to PAYDAYUK AND THE MONEY SHOP. A few letters had gone back and forth and forms stating that this was fraud and I filled them all in. Nothing on my credit report.....then I got 2 letters on Friday stating that they had sold this debt onto PRAT financial. They have clearly washed their hands off these 2 loans. Still nothing on my Credit report either, but they are accusing me of owing them monies.

 

So then what to do next? Since March there has been quite a bit of written dialogue, albeit without the SAR.

 

Just FYI, early last year I got a letter from each saying that I owed both monies....a pseudonym under the same name had taken these loans out.....and they immediately tacked this sh1t on to me......even though it wasn't me.

 

Your help as always would be greatly appreciated!

Morning all

 

It is worth stating that I was working with BW Legal (DCA) all of last year and now they have moved this on to PRAT. It has gone from one to the other.....typically. So an SAR to PRAT for both is required I assume?

Cheers

As I have mentioned before, a SAR would fail as you are not the debtor they are chasing. If you did SAR them and they supplied data then they have breached the Data Protection Act. It seems that the original CRN has bypassed their thought systems!!!

 

It seems that a threat of court action has now subsided but that does not negate the requirement of the creditor to make the right checks to ascertain whether the person they are chasing is the correct one and whether there is a case of fraud.

What to do?

 

I suggest a formal complaint (in writing) to PRAC and when they disagree with you, go to the Ombudsman. Long winded, yes but it puts the onus on PRAC to get their facts right. You have told them enough times that this is fraud, you have supplied the CRN so they should fully investigate this case.

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