    • I've looked through all our old NPE threads, and as far as we know they have never had the bottle to do court. There are no guarantees of course, but when it comes to put or shut up they definitely tend towards shut up. How about something like -   Dear Jonathan and Julie, Re: PCN no.XXXXX cheers for your Letter Before Claim.  I rolled around on the floor in laughter at the idea that you actually expected me to take this tripe seriously and cough up. I'll write to you not some uninterested third party, thanks all the same, because you have are the ones trying to threaten me about this non-existent "debt". Go and look up Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd, saddos.  Oh, while you're at it, go and look up your Subject Access Request obligations - we all know how you ballsed that up way back in January to March. Dear, dear, dear - you couldn't resist adding your £70 Unicorn Food Tax, you greedy gets.  Judges don't like these made-up charges, do they? You can either drop this foolishness now or get a hell of a hammering in court.  Both are fine with me.  Summer is coming up and I would love a holiday at your expense after claiming an unreasonable costs order under CPR 27.14(2)(g). I look forward to your deafening silence.   That should show them you're not afraid of them and draw their attention to their having legal problems of their own with the SAR.  If they have any sense they'll crawl back under their stone and leave you in peace.  Over the next couple of days invest in a 2nd class stamp (all they are worth) and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above
    • In anticipation of lodging my court claim next Weds 1 May (14 days after advising P2G that was my deadline for them to settle my claim) I have completed my first draft POC as below: Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant has failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing a 8 secondhand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80 I look forward to your thoughts and comments guys! As ever, many thanks - G59

    • 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.

As far as I'm aware it voids the producer. However, you are dealing with possible criminal scanctions by not producing, so I wouldn't take my word for it if I were you.

I had one of these with totally the wrong number on it but as it was given after an accident that I wanted paying out on, I thought it was better to just take it to the police station and let them sort it out.

Absolutely not.

 

You have been given a HO/RT1 to produce the documents required. As it is not your vehicle, you MUST attend the police station with your docs and explain the error. They should make a note of it and pass the details produced and the note to the officer who issued the HO/RT1

 

If you do nothing, you will be prosecute for failure to produce

Hi Pat, the hort1 was given to my son who (being a stoppy teen) decided he would let them take him to court just to be awkward. He received a summons to court with a copy of the statement by the PC who has changed the reg number to the correct number and initialled his changes. (He was seen outside the house a few days later taking down the correct number) I encouraged my son to write to the court explaining the situation and which he did.

I just want to know if the hort1 is still legal with the incorrect reg number on it.

HORT1 don't exist anymore, as far as I am aware?

 

Anyhow, as this wasn't challenged at the beginning of the episode and the officer has probably submitted an addendum to the original statement, then I think your teenage son might be in for a grilling by a magistrate! Under PACE (Police and Criminal Evidence Act) regulations, a police officer can make an additional statement to the one presented to the court and I'm not entirely sure that this would be a defence.

 

The reason I say this is because of my experience within the police force. Very often, someone would report a vehicle or we would see one, and note down an incorrect VRM (vehicle registration marker) and when it came to writing up an incident report or a statement, it would normally state "we were given an index of A123XXX, and came across a vehicle matching the description with an index of A321XXX.."

 

All criminal (and most civil) law is based on the maxim of evidence "beyond reasonable doubt" and I don't think that in these particular circumstances that the incorrect VRM wod be enough to show that it put the evidence "within doubt". If it was a speeding ticket or a parking ticket, or another offence which did not involve the driver, then that would be a different matter, because it would be an offence involving the vehicle and the crux of that would be the ACTUAL vehicle.

 

As your son was stopped, it was more than likely to do with his actions whilst operating a motorised vehicle, rather than the vehicle itself and therefore the crux of this matter is the identity of the driver - the vehicle that he was using when he was stopped is (almost) not important (in the wider sense of the term).

A HORT/1 is a legal document which is signed by both the officer and your son, a copy of which will be produced at court. The fact that it has the wrong details on it dosnt mean it isnt a legal document. The fact that it has the wrong details on it may though render it completely useless in trying to prosecute your son for failing to produce the documents. If the error is pointed out to the CPS prior to the case I would be surprised if they proceeded. The fact that a summons has already been issued limits your options a little. I think you have no choice but to challange it. If you dont hes going to get convicted anyway !! Assuming that your son has the relevant documents I would take them to court as well, To prove they are in exhistance.

Thanks for your replies,

my son was not driving the car, it was outside the house. The car had been bought that day and we had been in the process of laying flags on the garden to park it there while he did some work to make it road worthy.

He is a banned driver until next month so he wanted to have a car ready to go so to speak when his licence was back.

I just wanted to know where we stood and what to expect at court (which is today).

Seems he has been adhering to the law for over 2 years and suddenly something so stupid may thwart all his efforts. :(:-x

Will let you know later what happened.

 

Thanks

Hi update to last postings..........

when my son was issued the producer he was in the house.........car had just been delivered he had just bought it from a private seller.

my partnert and my son were in the process of moving one car to put this new one on drive as it was not taxed.

my son was banned for 2 years for no insurance, tax etc so it was a very hard lesson to learn.

however, he planned to work on this car so it would be road worthy (it did have a current mot) for when he got jis licence back on 17th dec 2006. he was not driving, or even sitting in the car when he was given the hort1

 

he has to return to court in feb 07 for a hearing as th pc was not there today. they are charging him with "using" the vehicle...............what does that mean?

I think you "use" a vehicle on a public road even if you aren't driving it at the time. However, if he didn't put it there then I fail to see how he could be using it.

When you say using.

 

What are they accusing him off.

 

Using without insurance ?

 

Using without MOT ?

 

At each court a solicitor is available usually free of charge especially if the case is complex which this sounds like it is. In light of the info you have disclosed it may be worth speaking to them.

 

From the sounds of it your son has a fair bit to lose if convicted so I would get some expert advice.

I don't know the full facts, but magistrates don't have a problem in sending convicted disqual drivers to prison for driving whilst disqualified (especially if you get a stroppy disctrict judge as opposed to magistrates).

 

Tread very carefully and get your son legal representation.

 

Are you sure you are being told the whole story here by him?

 

Using in legal speak tends to refer to the insurance element.

ie You use a car without insurance

wheras you drive a car with no license.

 

Its just the way it is written when they are laying information.

Why dont they give peeps a break if i had a ticket for every time i had pushed a car i was working on off the drive and on again i could wall paper my front room:rolleyes:

 

Sadly used means on the road so expected to be fully legal. If a car is on the road its seen as being on the road and so using the road and so in the state of being used.

 

If the car hand been sold to your son and was then in your sons name then, it became his car and his responsibility an so all documents would be requested.

 

Sadly if he was in it or not makes no difference, but if you can prove it was delivered that day it may help you just grab what evidence you can of the situation and go for it.

 

We had a case thrown out of court regarding lights on a car, and the case was thrown out due to their own laziness of paper work.

you never know until the day.

 

Its hard when its your kids, and out of our hands:(

Two quick points. If ever you goto magis court and the prosecution try and ajourn the case refuse. The case then gets thrown out as the defendant does not have a case to answer to. 2. even though the car owner is your son that does not mean that you or your husband cant drive it as long as you have third party on anycar. If your son is being done for the tax then not to worry. If insurance then Technically as your son has recieved the car and it is in the previous owners name the previous owner is liable unless he can show what time the vehicle was dropped off!! A bit of a technicality but works if you see how.

You can object, but the actual decision is for the Magistrates and they usually allow a CPS application for adjournment the first time round.

 

The case then gets thrown out as the defendant does not have a case to answer to. 2. even though the car owner is your son that does not mean that you or your husband cant drive it as long as you have third party on anycar.

And you think that the Police will not ask the previous owner if this is claimed!

 

A bit of a technicality but works if you see how.

 

No it doesn't, because regardless of who might be holding the insurance, it has not been produced and that is the offence - failure to produce.

 

 

Waht we need from the OP is the actual offence(s), exactly as listed in the summons

Hi Bailiff

I think this is if the person borrowing the other vehicle holds fully comp and the vehicle they are driving has to have a valid policy on it.

But its always best to read your insurers conditions first.;)

Nope. There is no requirement for any insurance on the temporarily covered vehicle.

 

In the UK, vehicles are not insured - drivers are.
