    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??
    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.    
    • Hi. Please don't follow McD's advice to contact Met to appeal. They won't listen and you could end up giving them helpful information. HB

    • 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.

Gary you don't have to do anything, just sit and wait. If they dont file a defence by 11th December you will be able to start judgment. I would not phone them if i was you they will just fob you off. Chances are they will file their defence or pay up before the 11th.

Hope this helps

Could be settlement if they are sending it to you. I have recieved 3 defences and they have all come to me via the court not the bank so fingers crossed. The Halifax, in my case did say they were going to defend but paid up before having to. Good luck Gary, let us know how you get on.

They seems to be submitting a defence for almost every case, but don't worry about it as they always withdraw before the court date.

 

Follow your timetable and watch for the post with the letter saying they have withdrawn from proceedings... They may send another offer letter, if you get one of those you can ignore it if you wish, just let the court action take it's course.

 

With any luck you'll have this sorted before Christmas !

In effect, yes - thay have extended the timescale to, hey, December 25th!!

 

Chances are that you'll get paid out just before this, word has it on a Wednesday, so could run as close as the 20th? No guarantees on that, just my guesswork I'm afraid.

Hi Some people say to send a schedule of charges to the northhampton court. When i asked about this at the northampton court they told me under no circumstance should i send them anything they are just a bulk handling centre. They said once the bank submits a defence it can go no further on line and will be passed to my local court, if i wanted to send anything then i could (to my local court). I didnt send anything, they put in their defence but there was no time to transfere it to my local court as they paid out as soon as they had submited their defence. If i was you i would just wait.

 

Hope this helps

All part of the game, they don't have to tell you if they do.

 

Some people call the court just after the date for submitting a defence, just to check if one has been files. If they have not put one in by then they are usually about to pay up. Even with a defence lodged, they'll cough up just before the 14 days are up.

 

If they have entered a defence then the court would probably send you a copy of that. Most of the time it does not seem to matter, just wait for the letter telling you the money is yours again.

YIPPEEE! Another winner...

 

If they play fair then you should get the money into your account almost straight away. When you get the letter, phone and tell them you are accepting, and the quickest route would be to get the branch to fax a copy of this over.

 

If it were me, I'd be on my way to Halifax to hand it over in person - if only I could be sure that was the right office, as they seem to have departments all over the place.

 

As long as you are happy with the outcome of course.
