    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 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. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7. 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.

    • 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 set myself a limit of the end of this week (6th Dec) before submitting the defence. Just wondered if there was any view on how late i should leave it . just wanted to see if they could produce what i have requested in the CPR form before submitting.

 

thanks again for your time

Hi 

this is my first draft for the defence to be added to the claim this week 

 

The Claim –

 

1.The Claimant claims the sum of £6605 for an outstanding debt owed.

2.On 30/08/2006 the defendant entered into an agreement with LLoyds TSB BankPLC for a credit card under ref xxxxxxxxxx.

3.On 09/03/2011 the defendant defaulted on the agreement with an outstanding balance of £6864.

4,On 24/06/2014 the debt of £6679.31 was assigned to Aktiv Kapital portfolio AS, Oslo, Zug Branch, who itself assigned the debt to PRA Goup UK LTD on 31/12/2014.

5.Notices of assignment were sent to the defendant in accordance with S136 law of property act 1925.

6.Payments of £61.58 were received up to 07/01/2016 and adjustments have been applied in the sum of £13.18

 

 

In respect to paragraph 1, the defendant does not admit the allegation because

a. The claimant has failed to respond to a number of CCA information requests in full.

b. The claimant has been unable to provide the original creditor default notice

c. The claimant has been unable to provide a complete set of original statements detailing exactly how the debt has accrued detailing: All Transactions. From 2006 to 2016

 

d. A CPR31.14 requesting the Default Notice and Full statement was sent to the claimant on 25/11/2019 and has not been responded to.

 

In respect to paragraph 2, the defendant admits the allegation.

 

In respect to paragraph 3, the defendant does not admit the allegations because:

 

a. The claimant has not provided the original creditor default notice.

 

In respect to paragraph 4, the defendant admits the allegation.

 

In respect to paragraph 5, the defendant admits the allegation.

 

In respect to paragraph 6, the defendant admits the allegation.

 

 

 

Im a little worried about the parts where I admit the allegation - is this the correct type of response? As i see it they have provided the correct information for these elements of the claim

Hopefully I am going in the right direction now 

 

The Claim –

 

1.The Claimant claims the sum of £6605 for an outstanding debt owed.On 30/08/2006 the defendant entered into an agreement with LLoyds TSB Bank PLC for a credit card under ref xxxxxxxxxx.

2.On 09/03/2011 the defendant defaulted on the agreement with an outstanding balance of £6864.

3.On 24/06/2014 the debt of £6679.31 was assigned to Aktiv Kapital portfolio AS, Oslo, Zug Branch, who itself assigned the debt to PRA Goup UK LTD on 31/12/2014.Notices of assignment were sent to the defendant in accordance with S136 law of property act 1925.

4.Payments of £61.58 were received up to 07/01/2016 and adjustments have been applied in the sum of £13.18

 

 

The Defence 

 

1. The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature.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.

 

2. Paragraphs 1 is noted and accepted that the Defendant has in the past had financial dealings with Lloyds TSB Bank PLC. I am unable to recall the precise details of the alleged agreement or debt by which the Claimant refers to within this claim.

 

The Defendant has sought clarification by way of a CPR 31.14 by signed delivery dated 25/11/2019. To this date the claimant has been unable to comply with and therefore unable to prove its basis of claim pleaded within its particulars and therefore prevented from enforcing the agreement until such compliance.

 

3. Paragraph 2 is denied. I am not aware or ever received service of a Default Notice pursuant to section 87 of the consumer credit Act 1974. 

 

4. Paragraph 3  is noted and accepted, the defendant has received copies of notice of assignments from the claimant.

  

The Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of balance/breach requested by CPR 31. 14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to:


(a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement; and
(b) show and evidence the nature of the breach and service of a valid default notice;
(c) show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for; and

 

5. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed.

6. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

A few tweaks and amended the numbering of the particulars to simply the response and fluidity.

Hello there. I have been reading your thread and can point you to my thread that was a successful outcome with the mentioned DCA PRA

please have a read through, I am certain you will find enough information to help your own situation. A defence and witness statement are also there for you to look at.

In my case it never got to court, a letter of discontinuation was sent to me 2 weeks prior to the court date. 
it’s never to early to get started.

 

good luck

Thanks for the information Tbirdo I am sure this will really come in handy for my case.

 

Another update is that I have received an email for arranging a Mediation call on the 18/02, which i will book this week.

As per other threads i will keep the appointment and advise "No" on the call to point 2. - Can you confirm that you have enough information about the claim to allow you to enter into negotiations and that you do not require any further evidence from the other party before you can mediate. 

 

As to date still no update on the Default Notice or full statement 

 

thanks

Hi

I have spoken to the mediation booking line and I'm waiting for the appointment date for the 18th.

 

Today I received a response from the PRA Group to my CPR31.14 they advise I may wish to review my position in the  claim now they have provided the information.

 

what they have provided is 2x notice of assignments that I have already received from passed comms. they have also managed to get a statement from 2006 to 2014 (just photocopies, know letter head) as per my request. 

 

still no sign of a default notice??

 

any advise? I assume I carry on to the mediation date and answer no to point 2, due to the lack of a default notice.

 

thanks again for you support.

 

I have also attached the docs I have re lived, but not the statement

 

 

 

 

sorry for the spelling on the earlier post that was on my phone LOL

Hi 

 

another quick update

 

Just had my Mediation call and advised them that I do not have enough information from PRA to continue with the mediation.

 

The mediator relayed that  PRA confirmed they have sent me the agreement and statement and that PRA believe this is enough to determine that this is my debt.

 

PRA confirmed that they do not have the "default notice" but believe the information they provided is enough for the court

 

Now I will just wait for the court process to initiate and in the meantime i will continue to work on my statement

 

thanks

I have 14 days to confirm if I do not agree to a remote hearing 

 

Also 14 days to agree if i waive the right to a remote hearing and let the judge determine the claim by way of a paperwork exercise

Thanks
