      NPC ANPR PCN Claimform - Taxi - Appealed - No Parking Or Waiting At Anytime - St Thomas Hospital, London, Se1 7eh.

      By lookinforinfo · Posted

      Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.

      This is simply a scam site.  It's been shown to be a scam in the national press and on national TV. Please fill in the the forum sticky and upload the invoice you've received. In fact what you have is an invoice, not a fine, a private company doesn't have the power to issue fines.

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

If a defect appears within six months of purchase then you are entitled to insist on a repair and if that repair fails then a refund.

You must assert the right in writing. Write the letter immediately and tell them that the engine has failed and as it has failed within six months you are asserting your rights under the Consumer Rights Act and you want to know what their proposals are to repair the engine and if they are unwilling or unable to repair it then you require a refund. Tell them that the right that you are asserting is the right to reject the engine if they failed to repair it satisfactorily. Any refund will have to include costs of any deinstallation and also we would have to discuss here the problem about then the cost of a good condition replacement engine because presumably you want to keep on driving your vehicle.

Send the letter immediately. Send it recorded delivery – first class – tracked – or whatever it takes to make sure that you know that it has been delivered to them.

You asked by my colleague @dx100uk about the name of the garage and you haven't responded. Please will you address this question.

Is this the company? –https://www.alimotors.co.uk/

 

The Google reviews look quite good. When did you try to contact them? Did you do it by email or by telephone?

Also, are you sure of your dates. You start off by saying you bought it a couple of months ago and then he went on to say it was five months. Is it within the six months?

It would be nice simply to contact them without having to send a legalistic letter to begin with in order to try and keep relations cool. How far is this garage away from you?

You haven't addressed the question about when you tried to contact them. I'm sorry to say but it's very difficult if you won't address questions without being prompted.

And how far away are they from you?

Given the fact that it seems so close to the six-month deadline, I think you should send the letter which I suggested above immediately. Send it tomorrow, post office – recorded and tracked as recommended.

Keep on trying to phone them. However, you should be do customer services guide and implement the advice there before doing anything on the phone.

When you have sent the letter please come back here and confirm this has been done. Let us know if there is any reply to your telephone attempts and then we will take you to the next stage.

Once again, how far you away from them

By the way I see on their website that they say their email address has changed. You aware of this? Are you sending your emails to their new email address? Maybe their phone number has changed as well.

However, you must send the letter asserting your rights

Thank you. So that means that if you have to return to Birmingham to have the engine repaired, there are also the expenses of getting there, getting back and then going back again to collect the vehicle.

These are recoverable losses and we have to add that to the equation.

Presumably the replacement engine was second-hand. Have you any idea what is wrong with it? Have you had anybody inspect it and give you an independent assessment as to what it needs to put it in order and also the cost?

Why did you replace the old engine? Was the car running up until then
