    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

Hello all.

I unfortunately and stupidly purchased a car that has an outstanding log book loan on it.

The loan company are threatening to take the car away unless i can settle the amount they have requested.

I have sent many emails asking for proof of ownership on their part

they finally agreed to send me a redacted copy of the bill of sale.

 

The odd thing is that the reference number and high court stamp are on a completely separate page and are different to the supposed reference number and registry date.

 

Does the stamp and reference number have to legally be on the page of the bill of sale?

If it is not as in this case then will the bill of sale be invalid?

 

Please see the attached, it looks like they have added the stamp page to try and fool me...


Any help that can be provided to understand this would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you.

Could it be that the stamp and reference number on the original Bill are on the back of it, not on a separate page?

Thanks Ethel, that could be the case yes. Even if it was on the back am I right in thinking the date of the stamp is well off the date on the bill regardless of which format its in?

Good question, the Bill appears to have been made on 6th November 2018 but the stamp on the back is 4 months earlier, 11 July 2018. I don't know enough about these to comment further, sorry. Maybe just go back to them and ask them to explain the discrepancy? Ask them also to confirm that the stamp appears on the same document as page 1 of their pdf?

 

dx100's link tells you how to check if it is registered.

I have heard back from the log book loan company, they have now provided a new pdf of the bill of sale which now has a completely new bill of sale number and a high court stamp that is now dated only a few days after the bill of sale (see attached). 

 

My concern is they have just taken a number from another bill of sale where the date of registry is acceptable.

 

I have been in contact with the Queens Bench Enforcement and they have suggested that if i pay the £50 search fee they will just confirm that a bill of sale exists for the vehicle, they will not provide me with the bill of sale number and the date it was registered. I hope this is not true.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Sadly the high court will only check if a bill of sale is registered with them and will not supply any additional details such as the registration date.

 

And to top it off they charge £50 just to do that!

 

They wouldn't care if the bill of sale was legitimately registered in time or not by the looks of things.

 

Even if it is registered, which it probably is, i get the feeling it wasn't done within the 7 days required.

The loan company are saying the initial mistake was human error but having scanned thousands of two sided documents myself i cant see how a number/stamp from a separate document can end up being created within that PDF, the only way that can happen is if someone manually splices it on purpose.

 

The loan company still don't understand my reluctance to give them money without concrete proof that they own the car, they haven't even provided me details of where the amount required for me to buy the car off of them came from, it could just be made up for all i know :(

Funny you should say that.

I have suffered enough sleepless nights over this already so i have gone directly to their complaints department and requested this whole thing gets dropped before i take it to the next level.

 

Even if they do have a valid bill of sale the process of dealing with myself as a victim is wholly inadequate, especially as they don't seem to be able to provide anything legally saying they own the car or the outstanding balance without breaking their data protection rules.

As expected i was completely ignored by their complaints department as i am not classed as a 'customer', they failed to follow the CCTA guidelines that they are signed up to

 

i contacted the CCTA directly to see if they can help.

The CCTA have been very understanding and contacted Greenlight (Varooma) on my behalf to share my complaint which they have previously ignored.

 

I have been sent a response from Varooma now that the CCTA have been in touch with them, at present though i am waiting for the CCTA's response as they said they expected to hear from Varooma directly and would then get their lawyer to look over that response.

The correct process is to file the bill with the Filing Department, Royal Courts of Justice, Strand.

 

The lender’s copy of the bill will then have a Supreme Court Stamp, and the bill will be entered on the Register at the RCJ. 

 

…………..

 

that bill of sale is invalid

the stamp is on a sep sheet

the BOS has no stamp.

Thanks. If the stamp is on the back of the bi's is that valid? I can't confirm that it is or isn't as they won't say but unless they can prove it is to somebody then I would think it's invalid.
