    • Better version attached with the late appeal explained more clearly for the judge. This will sound silly, but I think it would be a good idea to e-mail it to the court and UKPC on Sunday.  It's probably me being daft, but Sunday is still March, and as it's late, sending it in March rather than April will make it sound like it was less late than it really is.  if you get my drift. You can still pop in a paper version on Tuesday if you want. E-mail address for the court: [email protected] And for UKPC: [email protected]   [email protected] Defendant WS.pdf
    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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 resigned from a job with immediate effect last monday and the company are witholding my wages for not working 2 weeks notice.

they provided me with a wage slip stating that i would revieve £351.46 net pay but they havent paid the money into my bank account. the amount has also been added to my total taxable earnings and no deductions are shown on my wage slip!

this is the clause in my contract.

 

 

If the Employee leaves his employment without giving full notice, or during his notice period without the written permission of the Company, the Company reserves the right to deduct a day’s pay for each day not worked during the Employee’s notice period. This may include a deduction of accrued wages, or other monies due to the Employee.

 

surely if my wage slip says i am being paid the amount and its gone on my taxable earnings they have to pay me?

Two wrongs dont make a right so you had better explain why it became impossible for you to continue your employment through a notice period. How long had you been employed before chucking the towel in?

When did this happen as they might be having problems with their salary run overlapping with your resignation.

Thier deduction of your monies due would only be lawful if they had to pay someone else to do your job and they can show that the walking off has caused then a loss of some sort. You would also have soem holiday pay to consider so how is that adressed as you could say that the notice would have included holday that hadnt been taken.

i was with the company for just under 9 mths and would rather not say why i resigned.

 

Are you asking them for pay for work you have done, or pay for the 2 weeks where you hadn't given them notice and haven't worked?

You would like us to tell you that you are entitled to be paid for work that you have done, based on no information? You don't even know that any deduction has been made, according to what you have posted. Money not arriving in your bank account when you expect it to could be explained by a whole range of reasons which are perfectly legitimate - and which may in fact include withholding the money for legitimate reasons. For all we know you resigned because you had been defrauding the company, stole the takings, and ran off with the design of the new secret development. In which case not getting paid would be understandable and the least of your worries. So, for obvious reasons, the reason that you resigned would certainly be relevant to any opinion - as would the employers explanation of why you haven't received money that you claim to be owed. You did ask them, right? Because step one of any potential claim for money on your part would be "first, ask the employer why you didn't get paid". Then, if that reason is not legitimate you send a letter before action, and only if that doesn't work can you take it further.

 

So when you asked the employer this question, they said what?

have they had to employ an agency worker to cover your job for the last fortnight? What holiday have you taken so far this year? What is your holiday year cycle? Help us on things like this ansd we can offer more substantial advice on the rest of thier claim that you dont get anything because you broke their contract. It may be that they owe you more than you are asking for and there was no breach at all so it amounts to unlawful deduction of pay. The more we know about things the easier it becomes so quote the exact wording of the contract etc.

i did not run off with any takings or steal anything, ive asked to be paid and HR sent me an email reminding me of a clause in my contract which i added to my first post.

 

Ok. So we now know what they didn't do and what you didn't do. Come on now, do you really think we can advise you in a vacuum? I have already told you the formal process - that is what it is. And we can't tell you anything more unless you want to talk to us. If you don't want to help us to help you, you need to go some place where you can get advice without telling them any information. I don't know where that place is.

But the OP wants it all to be a secret. Oops, make that a BIG secret.

 

Come on, use your psychic abilities!

 

Is that a grinding noise I hear? Oh dear, the gearbox on the crystal ball has failed. Now, how will we be able to help people who can't be bothered to provide the information necessary to avoid giving them unreliable advice?

But seriously, that's the issue isn't it? The OP tells us a fraction of the story, we tell them something, and following the advice lands them in greater trouble. There is obviously a big picture here - "leaving with immediate effect" when you need to keep it all secret - that just begs the question "how much more trouble can you get into".

OK, what about your holiday entitlement you accrued since the beginning of the year etc? Give us somehting we can use to help you because at the moment we have nothing to discuss other than you had a contract and you might have broken it and the last wage slip doesnt match your bank account receipts. We dont even know what the company normal salary run date is so you might not be due anything until the 30th june anyway.

Your statement of starting a new job the next day suggests that at some point near the end of your employemnt at the oldco you were interviewed for this new job, received and accepted an offer of employment and then just didnt give the rquired notice to oldco.. That may be an unpopular move but we still need to know about contract etc to offer an opinion on the lawfulness of withholding pay

Did you resigned or were you dismissed?

 

Yet, the first line of the first post was:

i resigned from a job with immediate effect last monday

 

The OP not only resigned, but did so without working their notice.
