    • Good Evening, I've got a fairly simple question but I'll provide some context incase needed. I've pursued a company that has operations in england despite them having no official office anywhere. I've managed to find a site they operate from and the papers there have been defended so I know they operate there. They've filed a defence which is honestly the worst defence ever, and despite being required to provide their witness evidence, they have not and have completely ignored the courts and my request for copies of it. I'm therefore considering applying to strike out their defence on the grounds the defence was rubbish and that they haven't provided any evidence for the trial. However, it has a trial date set for end of june, and a civil application wouldn't get heard until a week before then, so hardly worth it. However, my local court is very good at dealing with paper applications (i.e ones that don't need hearings, and frankly I think they are literally like 1-2 days from when you submit it to when a Judge sees it. I'm wondering if I can apply to strikeout a defence without a hearing OR whether a hearing is required for a strikeout application.   Thanks
    • I have just opened another bank acc with lloyds (i have a few already) After doing some research they may have some relation to tsb or be apart of the same group will this cause me issue if my salary is paid into my lloyds account? Also, if the debts do go into default and nothing is paid then after 6 years it all goes away? As the DCAs cannot do anything? I do want to start paying in like 3/4 months or do you advise I leave it if it goes into default? again sorry for all the questions, i am just processing everything

    • 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,

 

Just to let you know where are are v Abbey.

 

DPA letter sent 16th Oct

Rec letter 06 Nov that we would receive 14 months of statements shortly and the remaining had to be got from Microfiche.

 

We received the 14 months worth of statements within days but we are still waiting on the Microfiche copies.

 

How long should we wait for the remaining statements?

 

Should I start a claim for what we currently know or wait for remaining copies.

Gosh you certainly are busy this saturday morning aren't you!!!!

 

You are better off setting up threads in each differen't section of the forum to do with the banks you are taking on. It makes it easier for you and the mods/site helpers when you have questions etc.

 

Good luck

You're taking on quite a few aren't you? so, just post a new thread in each section to do with that bank. You can't copy and paste (I can't anyway) so you'll have to type it all out again. It's best to do this though, then you and everyone else will know exactly where you are up to.

 

Good luck

The very nice people from Grabby sent us a letter last week offering us the very laughable amount of £695.00.

 

To make matters worse as this account was sent to their debt collectors due to bank charges causing the overdraft and our refusal to pay them got worse they will pay this some to the debt collectors directly.

 

They will get sent to them a letter before action tomorrow with the revised claim less the debt collectors value and thanking them for their provisional settlement.

 

Will update you all when I know more.

What, you mean do you take off what you owe them through overdraft or other such debt? No, you don't. Claim the full amount they have taken in charges, minus any goodwill refund you might have had.

Grabby have acknowledged claim.

 

We then received a vrey nice letter from them yesterday to say they needed our contact details?? they already have those & wanting a breakdown of the charges and interest!!

 

Sorry Grabby, I am not as dumb as you are. Following a post I saw on the site I droped the MCOL into my local branch with the calculations and interest sheet. I got them to stamp and sign each page as received and took copies!

 

In the letter back to them I enclosed copies again and told them they should have reveived this all if their internal post works!!!

 

They also said they were going to defend! OH I'M SO SCARED!!!!!!!

 

Bring it on!

OK the latest here.

 

I have an allocation hearing (what ever that is) on the 20th April.

 

There is also an attached sheet with the following:

 

"This case has been listed with other cases on the same occasion because it appears to District Judge edit that the main issues involved in all of them are the same" etc etc etc

 

It means I think there will be a few of us there on the same day. If anyone there is due in Kingston upon Thames Court let me know.

Hi, read all about Allocation Hearings here : PRACTICE DIRECTION – CASE MANAGEMENT – PRELIMINARY STAGE: ALLOCATION AND RE-ALLOCATION - This Practice Direction supplements CPR Part 26

I suspect that because your Judge is grouping similar cases together like this, he's trying to use the Allocation Hearing to flush out the Banks (they won't all necessarily be Abbey). You ought to go, and I would prepare by being ready to talk about your claim resting on whether Abbey will disclose its costs associated with your defaults (going over your overdraft limit). Overall, I think that the Judge is probably doing you a favour. Regards, Mad Nick

Also, linked from that post is 'Stan1 v Lloyds', he had a block-listed allocation hearing at the same court with the same judge - so it might be useful to have a read of his thread too.

Unless you have received cleared funds by the court date then you should attend - tell the judge that they have indicated an intentionm to settle but it has not come to fruition yet. He'll probably grant a 14 day adjornment.
