    • 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.

Their intent on making the application you will note is stayed along with the claim...they advised yes to mediation then declined the month stay...so what their intentions are is anyone's guess.

 

I would envisage that if they do make application it would be heard at the same time as a Case Management Conference in which the court confirms directions for the trial.Their draft directions appear to be standard although the court will have some input to firm them up.

 

Making a CPR 31.14 request in this kind of claim is really cosmetic.....and for your benefit when you come to draft your witness statement.....you will add that to their none compliance with Pre Action Protocol....which they indicate they have complied with on the DQ .....you can see the response you have...not that you would of expected anything different.

 

So you wait now.....you will receive either a General Order re Case Management Conference or the Notice of Allocation (N157) which stipulates the directions and dates that both parties must comply by.....in the meantime keep your eye open for them actually making an application for SJ/SO.

 

No need to offer response to the DD or CPR. 

We could do with some help from you.

So as predicted @Andyorch I have received a copy of an application for a SJ along with a notice from slough court for with a hearing date of May next year in relation to the SJ application.

 

Haven’t had a proper read through yet as the submission is probably equal to a ream of A4. It contains a witness statement,

copies of the same docs submitted with the claim, a generic document from an expert (not related specifically to my case) regarding UAE law- will scan and upload for comments 

 

I have had no correspondence regarding the original claim via CCMCC other than it had been transferred to Slough for review to allocate track etc

Scan redact and upload a copy of their N244 and statement in support along with exhibits referred to within their statement.

Given that they informed you that the hearing will take place next May....the main claim will remain stayed until such time.

very quick notes..

point 24 is very important

 

25 a.if every set of t&c's that were ever produce were enforceable. they'd have been no bank charges or ppi reclaiming...

utter tosh to state such.

 

a lot is said about this so called 'experts' evidence and he won't ever appear and they say they've basically nicked it all without his permission.

 

all hearsay and IMHO should no be allowed.

 

 

 

 

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

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 everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Have you received your Notice of Allocation N155 ?  or has the court delayed it given they expressed intention to make application for SJ ?

 

You need to verify with the court that this so called expert witness has been approved and allowed by the court...normally the court would write to you (Courts Directions) the defendant to confirm that you are are in agreement for said expert to be a witness.......if its not been approved then 98% of that statement in support for SJ is superfluous and irrelevant.

I haven’t had an N155 Andy or any documentation to confirm a delay. Last correspondence was as to say that the claim had been transferred to Slough to determine track & directions.

 

(slough is not my local court, I expected a transfer to my local court as requested in the DQ)

 

So should I write to the court to confirm that they have allowed the expert, or await N155?

Okay ....that will be for a Case Management Conference....have you got a hearing date yet ?  And I assume you have not got a hearing date for their SJ application?

 

The CMC should be held at your local county court...inquire with Slough why it isnt.

So there isn’t much to read Andy 

 

it says

 

upon transfer from the CCMCC

 

and 

 

After reading the claimants application for SJ

 

 without notice it is ordered that

 

attend a hearing on this date

 

I have re checked and I have had no other docs from the court since the letter re the transfer to decide track and directions.

 

feels like a step has been missed or skipped for some reason?

No ...its quite normal in this track to order a CMC...more so when the claimant has made application for this course of action pre allocation.

They may use the hearing to deal with both points.......but you have plenty of time to prepare.

 

In the meantime I would sort out the hearing venue and get it changed to your local county court ...all hearings are at the Litigants in person defendants local CC...not the claimants.

The court will probably tell you to submit an application.....but that involves a fee of £100...its their error so you shouldn't be required to.

Because your DQ has not been processed ...its simply been overlooked and placed at the claimants venue.....which is incorrect..speak to the court.

Morning Andy,

 

Regarding the inclusion of the Expert witness- See justification from the witness statement, trying to backdoor the "expert witness" without permission?

They can only call on an Expert Witness if they stated and requested permission to use one within their Directions Questionnaire......did they tick the appropriate box on their DQ ?

Yes, it’s in their DQ Andy.

 

However, nothing has happened with the DQ so far, due to their SJ application pausing that process? (As I understood from previous comments in the thread)

 

This expert report is incorporated into & referenced in their witness statement relating to their SJ application. The scan I posted is their justification for its inclusion.

 

I have not agreed to allow the expert witness, I have asked the court if they have, and requested to move the venue to my local court, no response to date.

 

The auto reply stated that they will not review any correspondence relating to non urgent cases until 2 weeks before the hearing date .

Yes an application for SJ will pause the main process.....and take priority or sometimes the application can be heard at the same time a CMC is held to discuss the main proceedings.

 

You wont know if the claimants have been granted permission to use an E W that is between the claimant and the court...your agreement will only come into play if you agree with the findings of said expert.....not whether you agree they can use one.....

 

Re venue you must push and insist that the hearing is held at your local county court as you are the LIP....and that's for both...SJ application and main hearing assuming they fail to get SJ.

Thanks for this Andy, 

To clarify,  at what point should I make it known that I disagree / Agree with the experts findings? And I assume, state reasons why?

 

I should also say that the EW report they have enclosed with their SJ application is generic document and it is stated in their WS that it is not written specifically for this case
