    • Appreciate your response BankFodder. I am aware that the Consumer Rights Act does not apply in my case as I operate a business and, instead, should rely on the Supply of Goods and Services Act and Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977. I was a little unsure as, when I read the judgement of Hashim Farooq v EVRi Parcelnet, July 2023 I presumed that,  as Farooq had supplied laptops through Amazon,  the Consumer Rights Act would not apply but the judge refers to it in Section 22 as to why the claimant should be given judgment. Have I read this correctly? The reason for not offering full reimbursement was because I did not take out insurance for the full value.  In regards to correspondence from my customer,  I have emails from her in my timeline stating that she was waiting all week and that no one attempted delivery.  I have no doubt that she will be willing to corroborate the events with a written statement.

    • 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.

HBOS Reading Fraud victim - They have CCJ/CO, now order for sale...

Hi there,

 

I have a CCJ obtained in April 2011 for a business debt which the bank pursued me for personally under a personal guarantee and successfully obtained a CCJ.

It was a 'pay now' order at the time.

 

I have entered into various arrangements with the bank to pay instalments

(they discouraged me going back to the courts to make this formal).

 

I realise now that this was a mistake as I had very little income

(in fact I borrowed the money from family etc to meet the payments as they regularly threatened to make be bankrupt),

it is likely the courts would have been a bit less harsh than the bank.

It's a very large debt.

 

In 2016 the bank obtained a charging order against my property

- I jointly own it with my husband.

 

They have now written to me to say if I do not put the property up for sale for an amount they have suggested

(which is well below the market value for the property)

they will seek an order for sale without any further notice.

 

My question is,

is it too late to ask the courts to vary the order to accept an instalment plan.

 

Is it worth trying to reason with the bank (or their lawyers) that putting the property up for sale for below market value is really not a great idea.

Or have you any other suggestions.

 

I do know that should I successfully sell the property,

as it's jointly held property,

they have only managed to register a restriction,

so are not automatically entitled to by paid out of the proceeds.

 

Does this restriction as opposed to a full charging order have any bearing on an order for sale?

 

And finally are there any lawyers who are up to speed on this kind of thing as I don't mind paying for legal advice if I need to.

 

Many thanks.

Didn't think a restriction could be turned into a sale?

You can submit an N245 at anytime to put your instalment payments on a legal footing and take control away from the Judgment claimant.Are you up to date on your payments or in arrears ?

There is currently no payment plan in place

- I have always kept up to date with every payment plan they have agreed.

 

When they placed the charging order on,

at the same time they put another 6 month plan in place, and I fulfilled that one.

 

Applying for the charging order is their latest move.

They are not agreeable to putting another plan in place.

 

The property they are seeking the order of sale on,

although I do own this with my husband,

I have never paid any mortgage payments on this.

 

They have all been paid by my husband.

I don't know whether this will have a bearing on any potential order for sale.

Okay well as stated I would get an application in now to vary the forthwith to a monthly payment plan set by the court (The N245 can be found in our Legal Library)

 

Once a charge is in place, a creditor may consider the use of an order for sale to recover the sums secured. Here, a practical problem may arise in that a charging order may not be enforced unless, at the time of the application, the whole or part of any instalment remains unpaid. It therefore follows that if the debtor brings instalments up to date at any stage, the Judge will be bound to dismiss the application. This could lead to last minute applications for relief by debtors facing eviction which in turn could lead to increased costs for creditors.

 

The court can order a sale where:

 

• the debt is in your sole name and you are the sole owner; or

• the debt is in both names of the joint owners of the house;

• if the debt is in your sole name and the house is in joint names, the Judgment Claimant gets an ‘interest’ in the house once the charging order is made final. This means the Claimant can apply to the court for an order for sale to realise their ‘interest’ in your house. All joint owners (or a married person who is not a joint owner but has an ‘interest’ in the property) should be part of the court proceedings so they can explain their case to the court as well. They would be sent notice of the hearing and be allowed to attend.

Thank you Andy.

 

It's probably also worth saying that my case is now being considered as one of the additional cases relating to the HBOS reading fraud scandal

 

which is why I am surprised they have asked me to sell my property to pay back the debt at this stage.

Thanks Andy, I've submitted an application to vary the judgement.

 

They have already put in the order sale, expect that to come through first.

 

Just wondering, if we actually put the house up for sale ourselves,

 

what will happen to the order for sale?

Well technically it is in arrears right now, as the judgement was a forthwith judgment.

 

Also, doesn't the bank have to agree to the variation?

 

If they disagree with it, or if the order of sale hearing date is before the variation hearing date, the Order for Sale may be granted. Yes?

Well your varying the forthwith to payment arrangement...the judgment claimant was happy to accept your in formal arrangement previously .......yes they have a say but the court can overide and set the amount.

 

Order for sales are as rare as chicken lips.

Sadly, they are no longer happy to have a payment arrangement, they have demanded I re-pay the full amount.

Hence the escalation in proceedings.

 

They have, in reasonably quick succession, applied for both the charging order and now the order for sale. It's possible, therefore, I will need to defend the order for sale.

 

Also, as we were forced to move away from the area for work purposes, we now no longer live at the property.

 

We rent elsewhere, and rent out the property to cover the mortgage as we couldn't afford to pay a mortgage and rent.

I won't even have the defence of 'we're living in it'.

not a small amount!

 

aside from anything else, maybe when you show that you are a potential victim of the fraud re the j wont order any sale.

but, have they actually put in a formal application for sale. you mentioned that they have 'threatened' one. until they do that, it is just that a 'threat'.

Does not work like that Im afraid just because they are no longer happy...they leave a paper trail behind them...and moved the goal posts...you have complied and done everything requested.The court will view your application to vary in consideration of the judgment claimants change in mood......if you could maintain the payments in the meantime until your hearing to vary happens which will now coincide with their application...and the court will take it all into consideration.

 

I would be astonished if their application was allowed...as they have no grounds on which it is based.

The bank applied for a charging order, which the courts granted.

 

Because the property is jointly owned, it was recorded as a restriction at land registry.

 

They then applied for an order for sale, which they have now obtained, so they will force a sale of the property.

AFAIK on a restriction they cant...
