    • 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.

Hi all

Looking for some quick advice on a court claim from Lowell dated 5th Feb who have a Lloyds overdraft debt sold to them in 2015 although it was around 2013 that Lloyds kept adding more and more charges and fees etc.

 

The POC is as follows :

Author Document

Debt assigned on 24/11/15 by Lloyds banking group PLC and the claimant claims

1. 3595.98

2.Statutory interest persuant to section 69 of the county courts act ( 1984) at a rate of 8% per annum from 24/11/2015 to 02/02/18

287.68 and thereafter at a daily rate of 0.79 to date of judgement or sooner payment

Ref ****************** ( there ref number here )

 

I will be defending fully

but was thinking of using CPR31.14 but the claim does not mention any documentation.

 

Also is it worth sending a SAR request today to help my defence.

 

As stated I know there are multiple charges on the account,

I also do not recall receiving and NOA or documents asking me to bring the account up to date in a set timescale.

 

Also as a side not I am currently self employed under contract work until the end of Feb so if it does go to court can I still receive a CCJ for being self employed or possibly unemployed if I do not get any contract work in the coming months ..

 

Thanks...

Yes thats it word for word !

 

One thing I initially thought is the line debt assigned..don't believe I got a NOA ...

 

You can also see they are adding interest as well..

 

I think initally the debt was £2600 made up of charges , but Lowell have been adding on since

Link to post
Share on other sites

well no they aren't adding interest

they are hoping to get a default judgement which would not be seen by any human, and that slips through

its for the JUDGE to allow 8% and not over several years either, typically only one year is allowed

 

I would assume as they always do that they've lefy this until just before SB date

or what they think is the SB date, to gain max int on it.

 

go ring LLOyds ask last payment date please

they have 24hs phone banking

or do you still have online access

keep getting passed from pillar to post by Halifax but not being deterred.

 

On a side note

I have received a letter today from Lowell on another debt ( Vanquis card ) for £710 ..

.I sent them a SAR request for this sametime I sent the 31.14 to their solicitors ,

guess what I have been offered a 40% discount....what a surprise !

This is another one that is full of charges etc but that is for another forum...

 

Spoke to Halifax and they cannot get into account for balance or last payment but will send out statements for within the next 5 working days.

 

What they did confirm is the account was closed March 2014.

I know that between 2012 to 2014 no payments were made by me

so in liklelyhood it is coming up to the SB period which is possibly why Lowell are going for it now.

 

Also checking paperwork I did the pre litigation letter from Lowells solicitors....

an overdraft?

aside from the last payment (have you checked that), when was the o/d taken out

 

Hi..

Awaiting documents for last payment...O/D was taken out in 2009

 

an overdraft?

aside from the last payment (have you checked that), when was the o/d taken out

 

Need to check figures but taken out on 2009 to 2012 when I lost job and then spiralled out of control with fees , chargers and honouring D/D's up to £3500 ..was left like that until 2015 and closed then passed to Lowell...

 

an overdraft?

aside from the last payment (have you checked that), when was the o/d taken out

 

Oh also not a signed in branch O/D but done over the phone with Halifax cust services so no signed docs to accept terms and conditions etc..

i was asking, as if it was after 2011 then the s61b cca act would apply. it wouldn't require signing though, just terms furnished at the time. then up to the court.

when was the last payment.

Okay got a letter today from Lowell not relating to this but to 2 other debts they have purchased that I sent a SAR request for sametime as the SAR 31.14.

 

Apparently they are only sending me data since they purchased the accounts and not from previously as I will need to contact the original creditor for this.

 

Surely that is for them to either have all the previous paperwork or down to them to get the information from the OC if Lowell are the supposed owners ?
