    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are 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. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. 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.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • 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.

Good evening Andyorch

We have progress!

After sending the Solicitor the email offering a solution, he has accepted in part as follows:

"

Without Prejudice Save as to Costs

 

Dear 

My client has agreed to discharge the invoice/s previously rendered. Accordingly, there will be no charge to you. This is on an entirely without prejudice basis in order to settle this matter amicably.

 The vehicle will be made available for you to collect. It would be sensible for you to contact my client directly to decide on a mutually convenient date and time.

 I am not entirely sure of the request for a new invoice. For tax and accountancy purposes my client cannot issue a new invoice. Indeed, I do not understand why one would be beneficial to you. Unless you have further points on this issue I think we can put that to one side.

In terms of these proceedings and assuming the settlement has now been agreed, you will be required to notify the Court that the claim is withdrawn. I should be grateful if you would copy me in on any of your correspondence to the Court in that regard. 

I look forward to hearing from you."

 

In this thread, we were advised to re-date the purchase date of the car in order that we benefit from the time allowed to report a fault with it.  The Solicitor is acting dumb on this and I am concerned that I may word it incorrectly.

Thanks Andy

Purchase date still stands as is your right to reject from that date...which I thought you had already give notice...you dont need a fresh dated invoice ?

Someone on this thread advised us to request that the delivery date got updated so that it provided some rejuvenated protection term.

This is in view of the fact the initial delivery date was November but the vehicle has been in the dealer's possession since early December. Thus meaning that the 6 months (or whatever is law) should start again from now as she gave it back! 

Have we read this wrong then?

Thank you

But that would depend on what you wish to do now...do you still wish to reject it again in the future ?

Hi Andyorch

I hope not but someone on this thread advised us to do this particularly as we are now 4 months on and only used the car for a week of that.

Also, she advised the DVLA that she was not the keeper of the car so should there be some new 'guarantee' of sorts?

Thanks Andy

Well thats something you need to agree with the Solicitor as part of the settlement...I agree that you cant reissue invoices and alter dates...perhaps you didn't phrase it correctly hence the solicitors response.

If a problem is found after 30 days, but within six months of purchase, you can request a repair or a replacement vehicle.

If a fault appears after six months of ownership, it is down to you to prove that it was there at the time of purchase

Now given hes had the vehicle for 4 months without you having access Im sure the solicitor will explain that your rights should be extended

We could do with some help from you.

If the fault was reported within the first 30 days and it has been disputed,  the 30 days is suspended until such time as the vehicle is repaired to the satisfaction of both parties.  The clock then restarts.  You could have a vehicle where a year or more has passed since purchase and it is still covered within the first six months period under CRA 2015 and can still be rejected after giving the supplier one opportunity to repair, refund or accept rejection.

Would this get the point across please? (Please note that we notified the DVLA in December that there was an issue with the vehicle and that she was not in possession of the car)

 

Whilst I appreciate that a new invoice cannot be issued, under the terms of the CRA 2015 I reserve my rights to revert back to your client, should the vehicle fail again within 6 months of the date we agree for collection.

Furthermore, I wish it to be confirmed that the collection date be confirmed as the date I legally become the Registered Keeper for the purposes of the DVLA.

Upon agreement, I will withdraw as advised.

 

Your thoughts please ?

Thanks again

If your read Surfers post above the 30 days is suspended anyway..because you have already reported the fault...when you collect the car and all is well.....the clock restarts and into the 6 months.

 

With regards to the DVLA point thats no real concern to the Solicitor or the seller ?

Hi Andyorch

We have attempted to arrange collection but the solicitor is saying we can't until we withdraw the claim.

Also, we have a letter from the DVLA stating that they transferred ownership back to him on 25th January so how would you recommend we proceed with this now please?
