    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...

    • 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.

she had a Samsung curve 7 for 3 days and dropped it from about 6" and the screen cracked....

 

I have looked at their selling adverts and it shows it being bent dropped from height an being bent and not cracking...,.

 

I have contacted them and they said tough cracked screen voids warranty...

.that was 8 months ago and the phone worked perfectaly..

 

.she woke up last Tuesday and the phone was completely dead

 

contacted Samsung and they said take it to their shop in surrey quays which she did...

.they said they could not do anything so could not help....

then under CRA you would need to get some kind of report on its condition and what is wrong

[did Samsung give you one?]

then using that you send it off to the retailer [Vodafone]

 

they are obliged to either repair refund or replace at their digression.

Although, I would add a caveat that the cracked screen would not be covered under warranty.

 

Your Daughter dropped the phone and neither Samsung or Vodafone are liable for that. So if they choose to repair it, your Daughter would be liable for the price of the replacement screen, and/or a portion of the handset cost if they chose to replace it.

Please note that my posts are my opinion only and should not be taken as any kind of legal advice.
In fact, they're probably just waffling and can be quite safely and completely ignored as you wish.

the problem with cracked screens is over time they let moisture in.

not sure where you are but locally here if you get the screen off ebay/amazom yourself its about £40 to fix it.

but yes the issue ofcourse is going to be the screen fixing and if/if not that's has caused the phone to die

 

not worked on many s7's but i'd plumb the two are related

replace the screen and p'haps the touch pad and I bet it will work

Just to add to all that this, that I think that this is not really a question of warranty. This is a question of Consumer Rights Act. Cracked screens may not be covered by the manufacturers warranty – but if the phone fails to perform as a consumer might reasonably expect it to perform for a reasonable period of time then you would be covered under the consumer rights act and the seller would be the person who would be obliged to deal with it.

 

If the advertising of Samsung is that the telephone should be able to take a drop from 1 m – but in fact it's not even able to survive a drop of 6 inches then there is no doubt in my mind that this is a breach of the seller's obligations under the Consumer Rights Act.

 

Unfortunately, you have left it so late that I think you have lost any hope now of making the complaint. Secondly, there is also the problem of proof. It would be very easy for you to say that it had been dropped from 6 inches – but how could you prove it? And how could the seller disprove it?

 

I think it would put you in such a difficult position that you would have a very hard job to enforce the seller's obligations – even in a County Court.

 

However, – although it's too late now – it's a shame that you didn't deal with this immediately after it was dropped. You've been a member here since 2006. I'm completely puzzled as to why you didn't come here earlier and seek advice when the matter was absolutely fresh.

I'd agree with you BF on most of what you say, but I'd bet that somewhere, regarding Samsung's 'drop tests', it will say "under test/laboratory conditions". Which we all know don't really reflect the real world (much like vehicle fuel consumption figures :wink:)

Although it's academic now, I don't think there's any court that would say that Samsung's tests which were used as part of their advertising were not intended to create a reasonable expectation in the minds of consumers.

 

Can you imagine if Samsung published the tests and then actually said that consumers are warned not to rely on these tests in real life use.

are we in agreement that the Samsung curve 7 mobile adverts are mis-leading and false....surley this needs to be brought to the attention of the relevant authority....they are still advertising this now so a lot of other people must be under the same illusion...

I'm afraid that the "relevant authority" has no interest in helping individuals and once again you come across the same problem of proving that it was simply a 6 inch drop. The kind of thing that might interest a "relevant authority" is if there were a deluge of complaints or if there were judgements against the company.

 

I think the only thing you can do is to put up reviews on Amazon, trust pilot, anywhere else you can and see how many other people come out of the woodwork and agree with you.

 

Even that probably won't make any difference.

 

The only way to deal with this kind of thing is rapid aggressive action in the County Court. You have to react and you have to do it fairly quickly.

You could also buy phone insurance next time as well, it's only a few pounds.

Only the ASA can require Samsung to withdraw a misleading ad.

EU & UK provide some Consumer Legislation against Manuf defects, but relies on buyers commonsense with use.

Unless Samsung offered a guaranteed shatter-proof screen, from a min drop height of say 1 metre, I fear any claim will be rejected.

Accidents happen, which can normally be covered by Ins by Owner.
