    • They have defended the claim by saying that the job was of unsatisfactory standard and they had to call another carpenter to remedy. My husband has text messages about them losing the keys a second time and also an email. What do they hope to achieve??? Most importantly,  as far as I have seen online, now I need to wait for paperwork from the court, correct?
    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • 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.

    • 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.

Seems Portugal is to lose its green list status and other countries are going from amber to red.  All of this done as usual with a notice period to ensure as many travellers as possible are given the chance to come into the country in a short time without enduring enhanced restrictions.  Either somewhere does deserve red status or it doesn't and if it does why don't we announce it and immediately restrict access rather than encourage it?

 

Surely you dont expect competence and good management from Johnson, Patel and handcock, let alone the other muppets

 

Perhaps all those Tory voting hotels hosting locked down brits at extortionate rates probably higher than the cost of the holiday

.. while folks fly in from India etc and do what they like for months

 

Of course if you are rich enough - just stay abroad, or country hop before returning as exampled by Johnson senior

Some sectors of the scientific community think that the third wave is already here, that HMG have let the India variant in and that it's being spread via schools. :(

I edited your link, TJ. I had seen something about this with Blackburn and it's not right. The vaccine people were happy enough to grab headlines with the event at Twickenham but didn't want to help a Covid blackspot.

I'm seeing some very twisted claims

Like the delta covid strain is spreading through unvaccinated people ..

err - school-kids?

 

.. Yet they wont give more vaccines to outbreak areas?

Are the populist rulers really trying to say that nobody else in Blackburn wants to be innoculated?

 

and I'm sick to death of seeing the NHS can't/wont .. when its handcock and PHE (Privatise Health England) - NOT the REAL NHS

The Delta Covid-19 variant has begun spreading in schools and colleges throughout England, it has been revealed, after Public Health England (PHE) published new data demanded by teachers and staff unions.

100,000 positive covid tests in the week up to 29th May, compared to 60,000 the week before.

 

WWW.BBC.CO.UK

Increasing numbers of infections are likely to be caused by the so-called Indian, or Delta, variant.

  The way it is going, I cannot see the Goverment going ahead with the further changes from 21st June.

We could do with some help from you.

As I said the other day HB, I suspect Goverment will delay until 5th July and see what the data is like during the next few weeks.

 

And if number of positive tests keeps on increasing, then it would be very risky to increase freedoms and removed H&S requirements.

 

Could the Goverment enable the amount of testing that would be required, if people were  moving around more including going abroad on holiday, sports events etc.

 

My local GP pratice has been turned into a Covid vaccination centre and also has a Covid testing site in the car park.  I think most of the GP appointments are being done by phone or Skype.

and went for my second O/AZ jab yesterday at a different and small site

What a contrast from the first

This one disorganised with hour plus queues and people turning up well outside their time slot and just being told to join queue or rebook.

 

An hour and a half after my appointment time (I arrived 10 mins before slot) - Jabbed

Significant soreness in arm where jab was including pain into shoulder within 30 mins - but that could have been the person doing the jab - his mind was clearly elsewhere

 

No other effects and all fine this morning. (apart from minor soreness in jab area)

That's what it was like at my first one.  Ridiculous queueing  setup requiring people to push past each other, without doubt the most at risk of catching Covid I have been since this all began.  People obviously turning up without booking, sometimes one family member booked and brought others who were allowed through.  Got through all of that to be told I should have brought photo ID even though I had the letter in my hand which never mentioned it.  When I turned to leave they let me continue 'as a favour'.

I wasnt asked for any is at either jab

 

but the seems similar 'jab anyone who turns up' attitude with 'marshalls saying 'its not for them to manage the people turning up outside appointment time or without one when challenged and he was a volounteer

I said dont volunteer for a job if you aren't going to do it right you are turning a vaccination into a super spreading event.

The government is being accused of covering up data on infections in schools and of telling PHE to remove a page of statistics. They seem to be in denial about how children can catch and spread the virus.

 

This is from a Swiss paper, I haven't seen anything in English yet.

 

https://www.letemps.ch/sciences/gouvernement-britannique-accuse-davoir-cache-informations-variant-delta-chez-enfants

 

And an article by the Guardian's science correspondent on her experience when her children tested positive.

Yes, surprising what NONE of the UK news services are(n't) reporting (bad English - but worse reporting)

 

Infections seem to be rising at up to 3% per day - even before the alleged upcoming further easing of restrictions ..

I don't know enough about the Covid-19 virus and how different it is to flu, but it appears to me that assurances being given by health professionals and policitians, are more about trying to improve public confidence.  There must be conversations taking place about what information should be made public, as the majority of people are not experts and therefore they could not make any assessment to guide them on their behaviours, confidence level etc.

 

I see some data for lateral flow testing (people attending workplace) on a regular basis and of  daily tests of approx. 5000 conducted around the UK, these normally show 1 person positive and quite often no positive tests.  

 

It is quite possible that the UK with a population of 68 million, will always have a reasonably large number of positive cases, even after 75% or more have been vaccinated.   As the Government are not going to close UK borders or require everyone who returns to the UK to enter quarantine, then we will to have to live with some people carrying the virus.  At some point, the Government will have a difficult decision to make, which will be to withdraw the free tests for most people.

 

The Prime Minister is going to be in a very difficult position, as there may not be a majority in Parliament, to back the Governments strategy.   Many Tory backbenchers are not going to be happy, when the planned 21st June changes are postponed by at least 2 weeks. As the number of Covid cases increase in the UK and elsewhere, Government will be faced with having to effectively cancel the holiday plans of millions of people.  This could well lead to many tour operators requiring Government financial assistance. 

 

And in regard to Labour and other parties, I am not sure they have practical policy alternatives.  A Labour shadow minister, suggested everyone entering the UK should be required to quarantine in provided accommodation.  I cannot see how that would be easily arranged and people would not be willing to pay the £1700 per person cost.
