    • Update! I have now opened the mail from Barclaycard. I am assuming that their letters were prompted by my confirmation to them of my change of address, which I had advised them of twice. They are treating my change of address notification as a "General Data Protection Regulation Right of Access Request"  and state that I have made a "Right of Access Request. They are asking me to provide valid indentity documents! I have made no such request and am minded to ignore their request for extra information? I should add that their letters were sent to my correct current address!
    • Are you allowed to appeal if you plead guilty?   I know you appeal the sentence, but the criminal record formed from your guilt would surely remain?   I'm not sure if your able to appeal a crimianl record if you plead guilty are you?
    • DX: I did not pursue Link after I got the CCJ amended to monthly payments. Pretty sure the CCJ does not mention reviews, I do have the CCJ somewhere, I will have to look it up in storage. It is as mentioned on the thread you referenced  in your post #28. The Barclays loan was taken out in September 2004 for 60 months! Current Balance remaining approx £2K. On checking back my past correspondence with Barclaycard about this loan, there was a history of them ignoring my letters and offers to pay, and I even had problems in obtaining their bank account details for them to accept my payments! I have received strange correspondence from them too, one referring to insurance which I did not have. They seem very disorganised! Barclaycard told me to pay "Masterloan" a while back and I now receive regular statements and arrears notices from "Personal Loans from Barclaycard" clearly marked Masterloan, they changed the account reference number! I have never requested a CCA on this account. I advised them of my change of address last September, but they are still sending, until today, statements etc. to my old address! I have received 2 letters from Barclaycard Loan today though, not opened them yet!!

    • 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.

The Tory Legacy

Record high Taxes, Immigration, Excrement in waterways, energy company/crony profits

Record low: living standards and investment

Crumbling Hospitals, Schools, council services, businesses and roads

 

If only the Govt had thrown a protective ring around care homes with the same gusto they do around their crooked MPs

“This is specifically not allowed. Mr. Mansour used to be a Cabinet Minister in Egypt, he has given the Tories a huge amount of money, and immediately gets a knighthood.

That seems straightforwardly corrupt.  Shouldn’t they both be in jail?”

Four years after he kicked off the Trump presidency by lying angrily about the size of the inauguration crowd, the former press secretary Sean Spicer has applied to join the White House press corps.

 

The former Republican party official now hosts a show, Spicer & Co, on the hard-right and conspiracy theory-tinged Newsmax network.

Never mind. :)  I see they're suing that Sidney lawyer lady for the same amount.

 

It's quite funny seeing Trump's bully lawyer whining about his right to practise law being affected by having to be accountable for his actions...

There's a lot coming out about events on 6th January, isn't there? Including that figures like Alex Jones and others on the far right sent hundreds of thousand of dollars to support the insurrection.

 

Trump seems to have managed to replace the legal team that walked out last week. I wonder if the new team will get on any better with arguing that the election was stolen?

Eleven Republicans vote to throw Marjorie Taylor Greene off committees

The result effectively removed any influence she may have had on committees instrumental to oversight and legislation

 

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/feb/04/marjorie-taylor-greene-congress-democrats-committees

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/marjorie-taylor-green-11-gop-adam-kinzinger-b1797921.html

 

"The US House of Representatives has voted to strip the extremist Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia of her committee assignments, in a stark rebuke over her incendiary and racist statements  ...

included supporting the assassination of Democratic members of Congress, denying that a plane crashed into the Pentagon on 11 September 2001, and perpetuating the myth that the Parkland, Florida, school shooting in 2018 was faked."

 

"Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican minority leader, has called Greene’s past comments “looney lies”.

- but still voted in support of her and with the other Republican leadership refused to remove the freshman congresswoman themselves.

 

"with 230 voting in favor and 199 voting against. Just 11 Republicans, including Adam Kinzinger and Brian Fitzpatrick, joined with Democrats to strip Greene of her positions on the House budget and education and labor committees."

 

House rules committee chairman, Jim McGovern said: “I stand here today still deeply, deeply troubled and offended by the things that she has posted and said and still not apologized for,”

Pehaps Corbyn should take heed of Jim McGoverns statement there

Interesting that the republicans cant actually win the impeachment ..

Trump can, but the republicans cant

 

They have a choice of supporting Trump and defining that a president can do what he likes ... with a democrat president enthroned

 

or supporting the conviction of Trump and retaining some credibility .. but not so much with the loony right.

“Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack, and if Republican Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again. He will never do what needs to be done, or what is right for our country,” said Mr Trump.

What a surprise, Trump's new website is rewriting the story of his presidency. As the Guardian says, 'Narrative omits two impeachments, economic crash, Covid death toll and riot that marked end of his term'.

'Donald Trump has discontinued the blog-type website he launched in a fanfare less than a month ago as “a beacon of freedom” and “a place to speak freely and safely”.'

 

'he Trump blog, a mouthpiece for his false claims about a rigged 2020 presidential election, failed to gain traction and on 21 May the Washington Post reported it had attracted a “staggeringly small audience”.'

Trump will go away quietly in my opinion.  Gradually the conspiracy based agenda is being exposed for what it was, leaving many of those who believed embarrassed.   There is a follow up documentary series to the recent Borat film on Amazon Prime which addresses some of the silly stories that parts of America thought were true.

 

Trump faces quite a few Court cases and inquiries into various, so I doubt he would have much time to engage in politics.  I just wonder how much of Trumps fortunes are real or is it just a huge amount of debt invested in the various property projects in different countries.  And the arguably damaged Trump brand is probably not helping to sell apartments, hotel rooms etc. 

We could do with some help from you.

I hope so, UB, but there was an article in the Washington Post only this morning that says he's fixated on the ballot audits in Arizona and talking about running more of them in several other states. He still thinks he won the presidential election.
