    • Probably to do with the Creditor accepting the reduced payments claim as part of the IVA. - Thats my guess anyway.  As for the mount outstanding... 60k is incredible and im pretty sure a DRO wouldnt cover that much even after the new legislation.    For you @Alfy - Please stay headstrong and stop worrying. My viewpoint on debt with debt collectors is simple. You are a figure on a spreadsheet loaded into a database for them to run a collection cycle through.  They dont care about emotions or your situation, they just care about paying off their shareholders and trying to turn a profit.  They use varying tactics to increase the pressure on you to the point where you will break. People then fall for this an either cave in to DCAs before doing their own due diligence on the debts that are purchased or turn to IVAs like you have.    They are better ways to handle this and Im glad you feel better after a good nights sleep - I hope you can keep it up. 
    • Good afternoon,    I am writing in reference to the retail dispute number ****, between myself and Newton Autos concerning the sale of a Toyota Avensis which has been found to have serious mechanical faults.    As explained previously the car was found to be faulty just six days after purchase. The car had numerous fault codes that appeared on the dash board and went into limp mode. This required assistance from the AA and this evidence has already been provided. The car continues to exhibit these faults and has been diagnosed as having faults with the fuel injectors which will require major mechanical investigation and repairs.    Newton Autos did not make me aware of any faults upon purchase of the vehicle and sold it as being in good condition.    Newton Autos have also refused to honour their responsibilities under The Consumer Rights Act 2015 which requires them to refund the customer if the goods are found to be faulty and not fit for purpose within 30 days of purchase.    Newton Autos also refused to accept my rejection of the vehicle and refused to refund the car and accept the return of the vehicle.    It is clear to me that the car is not fit for purpose as these mechanical faults occurred so soon after purchase and have been shown to be present by both the AA and an independent mechanic.   Kind regards
    • Commercial Landlords are legally allowed to sue for early cancellation of the lease. You can only surrender your lease if your landlord agrees to your doing so. They are under no obligation even to consider your request and are entitled to refuse. You cannot use this as an excuse not to pay your rent. Your landlord is most likely to agree to your surrendering the lease if they want the property back in order to redevelop it, or if they wants to rent it to what they regards as a better tenant or at a higher rent. There are two types of surrender: Express surrender in writing. This is a written document which sets out the terms of the surrender. Implied surrender by conduct. (applies to your position) You can move out of the property you leased, simply hand your keys back and the lease will come to an end, but only if the landlord agrees to accept your surrender. Many tenants have thought they can simply post the keys through the landlord's letter box and the lease is ended. This is not true and without a document from the landlord, not only do you not know if the landlord has accepted the surrender, you also do not know on what basis they have accepted and could find they sue you for rent arrears, service charge arrears, damage to the property and compensation for your attempt to leave the property without the landlord's agreement. Unless you are absolutely certain that the landlord is agreeable to your departure, you should not attempt to imply a surrender by relying on your and the landlord's conduct.  
    • I had to deal with these last year worst DCA I have ever dealt with. Just wait for the constant threats of CCJ and how you'll lose in court and how they won't do mediation and they want the judge to question you with a load of "BIG" words to boot with the letter. My case was struck out in the end, stupidity on their part as I admitted to owing the debt in the end going through the court process was just a formality as they wouldn't let it drop despite me admitting the debt regardless. They didn't send the last part of the court paper work in so it ended up being struck out     .
    • Well, that's it then. Clear proof of the rubbish cameras. Clear proof of double dipping. G24 won't be getting a penny. Belt & braces, I would write to the address LFI has found, include the evidence of double dipping, and ask Fraser Group to call their dogs off.

    • 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.

might be worth finding the original council planning permission as bet parking is not limited to one hour when granted originally and no-one can change that

least of all a powerless PPC.

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 the time limit isn't in the original planning documents, does that mean that they can't enforce the 1hr time limit?

 

Could someone point me to some reading that I could inform myself with?

 

I've been searching the Sheffield planning portal with the search terms of "vcs", "excel" and "marys gate" and I can't find any application in relation to signage in the car park

This was many years ago. The planning documenta for this site are not online but they are available at sheffield city council offices by appointment

 

However none of the above has any effect on signage acceptance, offer, performance in this case so i would not personally waste your time but you are of course free to go to the council offices.

HB sorry i did type out a reply on my phone earlier but it didnt post

 

Well given the situation D is in, i would initially get in contact with the land agent/business/land owner and see what their initial response is to see if they can get the claim withdrawn.

Social media can help

 

If that didnt work then i have very successfully got Court Claims withdrawn from the likes of Parking Eye To CarFlow Ltd by threatening to involve the landowner.  

 

Now this takes a large amount of outrageous bluff, but (and this is case specific)  threatening the use of a witness summons (ok would need a witness summary on application, but again this is just bluff) to force the attendant of a site employee etc  to appear at a county court hearing works wonders on many occasions (if the case warrants it)

so an even bigger gamble than sticking to the 2 or 3 line defence used here then...

Okay I have the document, not sure I should shared publicly(?), so what's the best way for me to share

 

ok to publish here 

use pdf

 

Seems to have very new owners

 

 

For reference, I believe the carpark to be within the red outline on the document, outside the front of the pink shaded building, kind of where it shows a wide Ellin Street. 

 

Here is the carpark from google maps (https://www.google.com/maps/@53.3734665,-1.4745247,127m/data=!3m1!1e3)

 

 

the same view without satellite view on:

phone the Nottingham office of the Lnad Registry and ask them who the previous owners were as this is normally on the docs so you are entitled to ask.

The company that owns it now is just a front co for someone else, like the 25 others with a similar name, usually overseas investors but it i listed as non trading so VCS cant have a legal contract with them

Will do that today when I get into work and report back here

 

Just spoke to them on the phone, they said that any documents requested online will show the title deeds as they currently stand. to find historic documents/previous owners I need to fill out the £7 postal application. Should I proceed with that?

 

I'm aware that the request for this document will probably take quite a long time between sending of the form and actually receiving it, so is this a path worth pursuing?

disclosure stage could be weeks away yet.

also, you can pay for stuff over the phone and get it posted. I have never suffered a delay when doing so and I am also surprised that the person taking your call wasnt more helpful. Perhaps times ahve changed and it is all about the money money money

Hoping to happen?

 

This WILL 99.9% go to a hearing, this being VCS it doesnt matter where in the country they will send reps to attend a hearing. (unlike certainly companies if you use an address for service many miles away they will discontinue)  So you will certainly end up at a hearing (if Sheffield is your local court your are looking at December at the earliest looking at how cases are being booked at the moment

 

Defence wise, keep it concise.  your defence points will (as you outed yourself as the driver) will rest on landowner/contractual authority and signage, although knowing this site thats not really a strong argument

 

Also the £60 add on charge can be argued as an abuse of process.  claims have started to be kicked out because of this, although this is now subject to an appeal in the coming months

Was meaning are we hoping to have VCS withdraw it before it reaches a hearing.

 

Could you explain the £60 add on thing? Have just been reading about the case you mentioned before however I don't see anything about addons.

 

I know live in London, so Sheffield is not my local court. Do I have to attend, or do I just submit my defence and it'll get decided on the day and I'll be notified?

No you MUST attend, it will get allocated to your local london court, if you work, it may or may not be easier to select the county court to your work place, when you get an "allocation questionnaire"  (if you want it by your work place, then put the court name down and why, if your home court then just state the closest court to your home

 

London courts you will be looking end of January at the earliest

 

VCS will NOT withdraw this case.
