    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.

    • 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.

I sent the following letter to Capstone on 23rd June. I will be interested to see their reply:

Dear Sir

I am in receipt of your letter of 19th June.

I am becoming very irritated that you fail to credit our mortgage account with the cash that I pay into Barclays Bank using your paying-in book that contains all the details necessary for the payments to be credited immediately to our account. As you know, cash payments are not subject to clearing and are credited to your account immediately they are paid in and the money is available for you to use straight away. The fact that it takes you x number of days to find it is down to the failings of your internal systems and do nothing to detract from the fact that cash paid in should be credited to our account on the day the payment is made.

The payment that you now claim has been missed was paid into Barclays Bank, ---, at 12:09 on 15th June. A payment of £-- was also made into Barclays Bank, ------ on 4th June 2010.

In view of the fact that you seem to lose more payments than you actually find, I am concerned that interest has been charged on these payments during the time that it took you to find them. Will you please look through your records and credit my account with the interest to which you are not entitled.

I am also concerned that you have charged my account with your exorbitant “litigation fees” of £116.00. As you know, any penalty charges charged must be in proportion to the amount of work required to levy the fee. As this is done by computer in nanoseconds I cannot believe that the cost is in proportion to the amount of work involved. Will you please give me details of the cost to prove that it is justified. Simply saying “we believe that they are justified”, will not do. If that is the sort of reply I receive, I will immediately be complaining to the FOS and the OFT, whose rules you will be transgressing.

I am also concerned that whilst I was promised earlier in the year, that the person to whom I spoke would examine my account because a number of charges levied from November 2009 to February 2010 appeared to be in error, nothing has been done.

I note from my recent statement that more litigation charges have been applied to our account and I would like these to be examined in light of my comments above and credited back to my account and the arrears figure adjusted accordingly.

I look forward to your reply by return.

 

Yours faithfully

 

 

Hi, if your paying into the same account as me, just found out it's been closed.

Sawyer, whats happened with your payments then, they will need to take responsibility for not informing you their account has been closed, ok I do realise that pigs will be flying past my window before they take any responsibility for their sheer ineptness!!!!

 

I had a letter saying they are looking into my verbal complaint regarding charges, have also lodged with FOS, can see that this will be a very long drawn out process, but I am patient!!!!

Hi everyone,

 

Just been reading through alot of the posts on here and found myself nodding in agreement to most of it!!

My partner & his ex took out a loan secured on his house with London Mortgage Company after contacting loans.co.uk in 2004, it has recently changed to Capstone Mortgages and all I can say is that they are an absolute bunch of clowns!!

My partner was made redundant in April 09 and used redundancy money to keep up with repayments, his ex gives him half every month, but after about 7 months we were struggling and ended up in arrears, we contacted lots of organisations etc to see if anyone could help but not alot could be done. He found contracting work in December 09 and from then on we have been paying back £600 per month instead of the £380 that it should be, all was fine until Capstone took over, since then it has been nothing but hassle!!! Currently we are in arrears of £800.

 

We couldn't set a direct debit up initially as he was paid weekly and London Mortgage Company were fine with the payment being a couple of days late as long as it was paid in before the end of that month. We, stupidly, presumed that Capstone would be the same and got a shock when we received a letter saying the we would be charged £25 for the payment being 3 days late!! We had called on the 25th May to explain the there was no way we could get into the bank until the 28th and were told that was fine, we called after receiving the letter to explain this and finally managed to get the charge removed.

 

Seeing as my partner had found a permanent job, we asked if we could set up a direct debit to start from June 25th to avoid this happening again and after alot of tooing and froing, we were assured that it had been set up and everything would be fine. The 25th June came and went but no money was taken and no DD was appearing on the account, we called on Monday 28th to be told that the money had been received and there were no problems with our account, we told them that the money had NOT left our account and wanted to know what the issue was. We were told that their systems were slow and to call back today to see if they had caught up yet.

 

We called back today and spoke to someone who, as far as I am concerned, should not be allowed to work in a customer facing role. He did not have a clue what he was talking about. At one point he advised us to wait another couple of days to see if the system had caught up but them a little later told me that if we didn't go into Barclays and make a payment TODAY, we would face late payment charges!! We then contacted our bank and was told that no attempt had been made to take the money from our account or set up a DD. We called Capstone back again only to be put on hold while someone looked at our account, they never came back and we were hung up on!! We called straight back to again be told that the payment had been received and there were no problems, we asked how this could be possible as there was not even a DD set up, at which point we were tols that it was a bit wierd!!!! No, not wierd, just a further sign of Capstones incomptetance! We now have to make a trip into our nearest town just to make a payment into a Barclays to ensure we are not charged a late payment fee. Oh and we have no found out the the DD had actually been set up to go out in November, what good that would have done, heaven only knows!

 

We will now have to wait until next month to see if the DD has actually be set up correctly, I will keep you posted!! lol

 

Sorry for the very long post but wanted to let everyone know the history of the loan and have a vent!

Put that all in writing to them as a complaint. I've had them hang up on me, laugh when they sent an a eviction notice by mistake, and try to cover all their mistakes by fraud. I say fraud..what else would you call it when they had recieved payment and then denied it by fixing the paperwork? Blanking out those parts on a SAR but the other one that was sent filled in the missing parts.

 

Don't hurry yourself ..let them hang..If you've made the effort and they have made the mistakes. I wasted so much time and money fretting over phone calls when I should have been writing letters and complaining instead.

 

It's not 'weird'. They have a habit of not processing payments and problems with DD's. The FOS are aware of this and Capstone whine that it's not their fault and blame everyone but themselves. They blame the banks but that don't wash ..All other payments go through and if they know there is a problem they should address it and compensate for it.

Just had an interesting letter from the Clowns saying that they will be collecting the monthly DD slightly later for the June payment and apologise for any inconvienience! Ermmm two things (which I have just pointed out to them in no uncertain terms) A) The letter is dated 01 July 2010 and is telling us the payment will be taken on 05 July 2010 [should have been 25th June] that in itself is a blantant breach of the DD gaurantee. and B) They already have Junes payment as we paid it into their Barclays account!

 

They have not said that they have not recieved payment but told us they cannot stop the DD going out on Monday. I explained that was the exact reason that I did NOT want to pay the payment into their bank in case they tried to recollect the payment at a later date...... I was gauranteed that would not happen!! Haha IT HAS!!!!! The money is not in the bank so no danger of them getting a double payment for June and a supervisor (first person I have spoken to there that seems to have a brain larger than a fly) has told me that if we are charged, send them the letter from the bank and they will refund the bank charges because it is totally there fault that these errors have been made. I nearly fell down the stairs when she said that!! I highly doubt that they will refund the charges that the bank will put on for an unpaid DD and I wish I had recorded the phone conversation! lol

 

We have spoken to our bank and they have said that there is not a DD showing on the account but there is a chance that they have set one up and it won't appear until they take the first payment. So they cannot put a stop on what doesn't appear to be there. We will probably get to Monday and nothing will happen as they seem totally unable to set up a DD anyway! lol

 

The thing that makes me even more angry is that my partners ex, who has the joint loan with him, just sends half the payment every month and has no hassle from Capstone or LMC, has no worry that her house will be repossesed and the loan was initially taken out to pay off her debts!! She then left my partner 3 months later!! I don't know whether there is anything that can be done about getting her to be jointly responsible in more ways than just her name on the loan but hey, only 4 years of this C**P to go!!!!

 

Thanks for listening/reading everyone, so glad to have found this forum! :)

The clowns did NOT attempt to take the DD mentioned in my last post!!! lol I, somehow, thought that may be the case!! Still I have the letter that they sent to tell us that they were going to and receipt from the bank saying we payed into there account before the letter was even written. I am collecting everythign and only going to communicate with them by writing from now on, unless its very urgent. (Do they even understand the word URGENT??!!!)

 

Oh and the Supervisor that I thought had a brain larger than a fly never did ring back as she said she would! Maybe I should get even more cynical??

Have now had a reply that says that they "are sorry that I have felt it necessary to bring this complaint because SPPL aims to provide a high level of service to all its customers. It is disappointing to hear that you feel that your experiences so far have been unsatisfactory." Sorry, SPML, but I thought that you had been watching this thread and might have picked up that there was a slight degree of disappointment by your clients about the way you run things, why not ask those hundreds (thousands?) of families you have made homeless whether they are just slightly disappointed with their experiences of dealing with you!

They reckon that they will let me have their findings in 4 weeks time.

They have ignored my request to let me know how their fees are made up, which is one of the most important parts of my letter to them.

If you are watching this thread, Capstone/SMPL or whatever you may call yourselves now, I will be doing what I said I will do if I don't get an answer.

Anyone else feel that they have not received the high level of service that Capstone pride themselves in?

Don't waste your time...just go over your acounts. We already know they are a bunch of clowns that coudn't run a p up in brewery. But it's down to you to find what they have done wrong in your case.
