    • Should this to be take into court with him or should he send something in earlier?
    • 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.

    • 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 there,

 

Can anyone kindly advise -

 

Parking Charge of £100 received for not displaying BB in Disabled Space, at night in a large Retail Park from UKPC.

 

I don't have a BB and I'm not disabled.

 

I didn't see any signs for UKPC in that area and it was very dark

- I only saw them afterward driving home once I had received the ticket.

 

I took a photo to demonstrate that there were no signs in front of the car.

 

Should I just ignore this. Or should I contact UKPC to say that I wish to contest this.

 

I parked there because it was late at night and the car park was extremely busy and as I didn't see any enforcement I didn't think it would be a problem.

I was rushing to meet a friend and didn't want to be late for the cinema.

 

The vehicle is not owned by me - it's a leased vehicle via my brother's firm.

The very first thing you need to do is upload a pdf of the notice you have received. Blank out all personal and identifiable information and make sure we can see both sides if they have printed anything on the back too...

 

Do NOT respond to UKPC until the experts here have had a chance to check out the paperwork...

several things to think about.

 

Is the keeper of the vehicle up for fighting this,

you say it is a lease vehicle so who will get the NTK when you ignore this ticket

because we dont want the contract co paying up and then adding unlawful costs on to your brother's bill.

 

Now,

if the firm is a Ltd co then it is easier to deal with because there is no company liability in these matters

because the term "keeper" in the POFA is an individual and no individual would then own it.

 

I have dealt with other tickets for the same reason for the same place and after they have spent their time sending out letters they have gone quiet when told that the money isnt forthcoming because......

 

and then a list of reasons such as no idication they are offering you a contract

because the signage there is placed in such a way you dont see it when entering the land,

merely in some areas off the little roundabout in the middle of the parking area and even then that can only be seen when entering certain sections.

 

Likewise, the disabled parking area doesnt have the correct sigange to determine that you need a blue badge

( that would be a contractual term) to park in any specific bays

 

as others say,

the BB scheme doesnt apply to private land and there are no markings there that are universally applicable as a CoP so any demand for one has to be clearly specified on every bay that they want included and they fail on that front.

 

Speak to your bro and ask him if he is up for a fight,

he can always name you as the driver at the time if he isnt but for the moment wait a month for his letter through the post as they normally get that wrong as well.

 

The come back here and we can take it for there but for the moment dont contact them in any way but esp not by email or phone

Hi there,

Thanks 'EricsBrother' for your advice -

I'll need to check with my brother if he's up for fighting it - I'm guessing he will as long as it doesn't cause him agro or costs and we have a good chance of winning.

 

Who will get the NTK - i don't know.

But, I would imagine if they can track it correctly it would firstly go to the lease company,

 

which would then be sent to my brother's company and his P.A. would open it and know that this is the car I'm driving.

 

So I've warned her something may arrive and asked her to send it to me.

 

Yes, that's right I don't want to incur any costs from debt collectors or admin fees etc.

 

Is my brothers company a Ltd company - I think so will check it asap.

 

So just to be clear your advice is take no action whatsoever right now - just sit and wait for them to contact me in writing.

 

Does everyone agree that this is the best course of action here?

 

Thanks

 

Ok checked def Ltd Company.

 

THIS IS A PARKING CHARGE FROM UKPC

 

DATE 20-1-2018

 

Did I appeal yet? - no I've done nothing - so therefore I don't have an NTK yet

 

Who is the parking company - UKPC – i.e. UK PARKING CONTROL LTD. UXBRIDGE

They'll try to add on debt collection fees and any other figures that they can pull out of a hat. But that doesn't mean that you'll be paying any of them :wink:

 

Correct. The Leasing company will get the NTK first (unless your Brothers company is shown as the keeper in which case he will).

 

Don't appeal anything until you know if your Brother is up for a fight, and if he is, until he receives the NTK.

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.

Hi there,

 

I have a notice to keeper arrived 26/2/2018 - but dated 22/2/2018.

 

The lease company have sent this to my brothers company - they are charging him £15 plus VAT admin for sending this notice to them. The lease company say that I must pay the fine or notify them of appeal prior to the due date (i'm not sure when this is ...assume it's 28 days from 22/2/2018)

 

So I assume I should call the lease company and tell them I plan to appeal (otherwise they will pay and charge me an admin fee on top).

 

 

Please advise on how to best proceed. Thanks in advance.

you are making things worse for your brother by using the word FINE when it isnt. By doing so you make it seem as though there is some legitimacy to this and that will make the lease co want to do what they want and claim the money back. Stop it now and get your brother to do a bit of research on this place, UKPC and private parking in general.

 

Where he was parked the entrance to the private land doesnt have signs indicating he is being offered a contract, they are only evident at the small roundabout where you can turn left to park in front of the cinema and this sign is easily missed as it is not illuminated. The disabled spaces in front of the cinema are not signed properly either. It is my experience that UKPC often go quiet when this is raised with them but not always. Now your brother should go back and photograph the site, signs and road markings and read the signage so he can determine whether he has entered into a contract with them or not.

 

You cant do anything unless he names you as the driver so best get him to startr doing somehting to help himself by popinting out this thread for starters

Thanks for your comments. I used the word 'fine' incorrectly on this site, I've not used that word anywhere else - you are correct that word is not used on the 'Notice to Keeper' it says parking charge. The language used in the letter from the lease company says charge and fees.

 

ericsbrother -'where he was parked'.. I was parked, not my brother. I wouldn't expect him to take time to photograph this area I can do that since this is my issue.

 

I'm not clear on the way forward here - are you saying my brother should name me as the driver? Please would you kindly clarify this?

 

Thank-you

You, or your brother have had the Notice to Keeper (or Hirer in this case). There should be space on that form somewhere to tell the parking cretins who was driving the vehicle.

 

The only way to remove the lease company and your brother(s company) from the loop is to be named as the driver. This means that the cretins have to deal with you directly.

So my next steps should be to contact the Lease company to tell them I am the driver, that I am appealing and that they can pass my name to UKPC?

- I don't see anything on the form to provide this...just info on how to pay the fees

You should firstly tell the leasing company that this is not a fine, penalty or statutory charge and therefore, as invoices are not covered under the lease agreement (check that first) you'd like your £15+VAT back (or credited, or cancelled) pronto. And that they'd best not make any moves to pay these bandits.

 

Also tell the lease company that the invoice is going to be appealed, and then as per the notice (there's usually a space for this on the back of the form, maybe they're trying to save on ink :lol:) appeal to UKPC as the driver (not normally recommended) but that's the only way to get the lease company out of the loop.

 

Dear Cretins..

 

I have received your invoice dated XX/XX/XX as driver of the vehicle.

 

The vehicle was not parked contrary to any visible signage and as the blue badge scheme has no relevance on private land, either cancel this ticket forthwith or give me a POPLA code.

 

Signed

 

The driver.

 

Don't actually sign it

-

 

It really doesn't matter on what grounds you appeal to UKPC, they'll reject it anyway, there's no profit in allowing appeals. But it removes the lease company from the loop and means that you can then fight this yourself without having to worry about your brother getting raggy with you or the lease company and any charges that they might try to add on.

Hi there - many thanks for the advice, I'm writing the letter now. How should UKPC send me the POPLA code? - am I to put my residential address on this letter, I just want to check before adding personal information ... or should I leave it blank and let them send it to the lease company?

Yep, your address. You don't want the lease company involved at all. They'll try to charge your bother(s company) for anything that they do, so best to get them out of the picture completely.

Hi there

 

So I’m feeling a bit worried about this now as I’ve received another letter from the lease company. The lease company says they received a ‘rejection notice’; if another demand for payment is received they will pay it +£25 + VAT :(

 

 

Cretins say - transfer liability from lease company - it’s been rejected - paperwork does not comply - section 13, para 4, section of the Freedoms Act 2012 - did not have include a compliant statement of liability
