    • How much of the documentation have you seen from when probate was obtained? And do you have a copy of the original will? I can't remember. My thought about you making the decision on your own to go with another lawyer is that three of you are meant to be beneficiaries of this will trust, aren't you? Normally you would need to act together. HB

    • Hi guys, I am about to file my defence via email as cannot log in to the claim anymore.  Can you please advise if I can paste below and if it's good to go for now, or should I add anything else in?  Thanks!  The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4.  The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.  1.  The Defendant is the recorded keeper of vehicle xxxx xxx.  2.  It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant - Parking Eye LTD.  3.  As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance.  The Claimant was simply contracted by the landowner to provide car-park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner.  Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim.   4.  In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant.  5.  The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer.   6.  The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety.  It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all.

    • Ooops - one to many also s..... my draft reply should read as:  Thank you for your response Mr Schnur  I set out my position quite clearly in my letter of claim and nothing has changed. Your insurance requirement is unlawful and is contrary to section 57 of the Consumer Rights Act, and also section 72 of the same statute. I would also refer you to the outcomes in PENCHEV v P2G (225MC852) and SMIRNOVS v P2G (27MC729).  My deadline for action - 1 May 2024 - still stands, and if P2G wish to avoid the addition of court costs and interest to my claim, you may wish to respond positively before that date.

    • 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.

can someone please advise.

 

I sent my car to national engine center to have the engine replaced.

the car was returned with body damage and had 30Miles extra on the clock.

 

I paid for it through paypal and after opening a dispute this garage finally agreed to take the car back on condition that the paypal case be closed,

they agreed to repair the list of damage I provided and within 7 days return the car.

on day 14 they sent the car in for a MOT without consulting me first, the car failed.

 

it has now been 3 weeks and they won't return the vehicle,

they say I can fetch it if I want as they are waiting for an order from my area and only then will they be able to deliver my car.

 

the only way I have of fetching this vehicle is to have it transported,

something they should be doing as this was the agreement they entered into on Paypal and it is part of their service they offer.

 

They wanted to drive the car to me from Cardif to outer London (without asking me).

Every time I speak to the Owner he threatens to remove the engine refund my money and return the car with the original engine on a pallet.

so I am in a bit of a pickle as to what course of action to take, and how do I get them to just bring my car back

consumer rights act.

send him a letter demanding what you want to happen

give him 14 days

then issue a letter [court] before action.

 

how do you pay paypal.?

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

I paid through Paypal with a debit card attached to my paypal account.

 

Paypal advised them to request the case be closed.

I closed it but arranged with paypal that I get 14 days to reopen.

 

Paypal now have a ticket open escalating the case to senior management and will update me in 72 hours.

 

My concern is , am I poking a hornets nest if I start down the court route.

What happens if the garage removes the engine and leaves my car and engine outside their premises, refusing to deliver.

"They wanted to drive the car to me from Cardif to outer London"

Why don't you let them?

That way you'll know if it's gonna break down.

Just make sure you make them sign a delivery receipt stating date and time, in case of a speeding ticket.

Also, you said they put the car through an mot without you knowing.

Why would they do that?

What did it fail on?

once the engine was replaced they returned the car on the back of a flatbed,

a few days later collected the car to fix the body damage,

 

apparently the delivery guy drove it onto the flatbed and hit the underside of the front bumper on the ramp and snapped the headlight mounting,

as well as misaligning the grill (nose) from the bonnet so much so that the bonnet would not close.

 

after the nose was realigned,

nothing else was fixed,

they took it upon themselves to send it in for the MOT which failed.

I don't understand why the MOT check was done as there was only body work done.

 

MOT failed on rear Brakes and falls under the new rules as dangerous and cannot be driven before it is fixed.

When they replaced the engine they replaced a 1 inch piece of wire on the fan and charged me £100 claiming the fan was the cause of my engine failure in the first place,

 

I know my engine failed due to timing chain, AA diagnosed.

So I am a bit reluctant to pay them for brake repairs and recheck of MOT.

I have looked up this garage and found a number of bad reviews on Honesjohn and AA forums, unfortunately I didn't find these before I sent my car in.
