    • I live in a student house, with 5 tenants, unihomes is our utilities provider, who we each have a direct debit set up with and have paid each bill every month. Two letters were sent in my name by BWLegal saying I had two outstanding payments due adding up to over £3500, I have tried to contact british gas (as that is apparently our houses provider) as well as Unihomes. Nothing has helped and BWlegal are pursuing legal action if these debts are not resolved by the 1st May. What do I do? I've called Bwlegal when i bring up that the debt isnt for me and for unihomes they hang up on me. so I am stressed and do not know what to do

    • Hi, everyone. I received a letter from TfL investigator/Prosecutor. The letter reads as follow:   ''Thank you for responding to our enquiry letter. Your comments will be taken into consideration when reviewing whis case and we will contact you as soon as we have reached a decision. TfL now consider prosecution against passengers who are in breach of all TfL byelaw offences and I must inform you that further legal action may be taken. TfL byelaws can be found at ... Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can assist you further.''   The letter was sent 23 days after I replied to them. Should I send another begging letter to IAP? I'm extremely scared now. Thanks all.

    • 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.

I thought they'd at least try and negotiate :(

Been stressing out and running around like a headless chicken trying to get some money together but they don't want it, would rather punish a person.

 

The idea of having this 'order' over my head for £5 a month for years and years is so depressing, y'know?

I guess if I call back and up the offer, that would be worse than leaving it?

I'll upload the documents as suggested by Jon8214.

 

Thanks for your help. :)

Must be cash rich at the moment ...normally as stated they would bite your hand of for a F&F cash up front.I guess their more interested in the Charging Order which will come next after judgment ...assuming you own your own property.

Good morning :)

 

I didn't upload the Digital Signature Application details or the many pages of Pre-Contract Credit Information (T&Cs) as I thought they would just be standard. Nowhere have I signed anything on these pages

. Also, I left out the pages and pages of transactions which are Exhibit PR3.

 

How shall I handle this court hearing?

Is there anything I should refrain from saying, anything I should point out.

 

For example: should I point out that despite being unemployed with no savings or assets (I do have a 12 year-old Toyota) that I tried to settle before the court date?

 

That Lowells where late filing, as Jon8214 mentioned.

The conversation I had in which the Legal Recoveries Associate said that it didn't matter to Lowells whether it took 10 or 20 years for me to pay the amount under a Tomlin Order rather than settle before court.

 

That there is no actual documentation with my signature on it. Etc.

 

Any tips? And what do you think my chances are?

 

Thanks :)

my first thought is that is an unexecuted agreement which in my mind means it was provided before the CC was taken out and doesn't have the proscribed terms

 

Andy and DX will be along later to confirm

 

this is an on line application "X" taken out 2009,//// ???? correct???? - and serves

Means on line sign up using "X" not a signature which is legal acceptance of agreement taken out after 2007/8!

 

so previous poster comment about not an application form, is relating to old wet signature application form prior tp 2207/8 to on line ones .

Thanks dx100uk :)

Very specifically,

do you think it's worth calling Lowells again with a higher offer?

 

As mentioned previously,

I have scraped together £700 in total to try and settle

but when they refused the offer of £450 and didn't try to negotiate, I left it.

Thanks

 

On their correspondence, they say their offices are open to 8pm on Friday and between 8am-2pm on Saturday.

Pers i never recommend ever paying the fleecers an f&f

With your financial situation i expect you could get away with £5-£10pcm if you lose

Is a ccj going to harm your future plans i.e mortgage if within 6yrs?

If you need to avoid one then f&f or go tomlin
