    • Thank you for taking your time and helping me on this. Would you recommend I also send a letter tomorrow to both BMW and Motonovo?
    • she and  johnson need to be kicked off the taxpayers credit card - for starters I'm certain there is cause - taking up 'jobs' when they shouldn't, bringing the nation into disrepute with their antics .. I'm sure it would be a very popular act from a new labour guv
    • Please have a look at this draft letter. It is modelled on yours but I have cut out a load of the unnecessary information. Also, the responsibility lies with the finance company because the vehicle was brought on hire purchase. You send it to them and a copy to big motoring world.   Let us know if there's anything that you disagree with, which is wrong, which you think should be added
    • According to Alastair Campbell on Twitter, anti-Le Pen parties are pointing to RN's fiscal policies and saying they'll cause a 'Truss-style market meltdown'.

    • Thank-you @BankFodder, your statement is a correct understanding of my position and I agree, it is actually really what I was looking for in starting this thread, as I too believed that the maximum I could claim for is that which I sold it for, even though this was substantially below market value at the time. And so, this sold value is what I shall be claiming for + the other expenses. @dx100uk I get your point, but this is just not what I want to expose myself to. Unfortunately I was one of the unlucky ones to have my details stolen in the Peoples Energy hack, and in 2020 I discovered that those details had been used to take out car insurance, and that the insured was then involved in a collision and my details were dragged through the mud. Despite Aviva cancelling the claim and treating as though it never were, even though I have the letters from them to say that they have removed this claim from the insurance database, I still get refused insurance and credit products to this day until I send across the letter from Aviva which explains that I was a victim of fraud. So you'll forgive me for not jumping up and uploading my data to a server utility for which I have no control over its retention policy, or where the server is located globally, its legal jurisdiction, or its security protocols.

    • 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.

Hi There

I have been reading this site with interest and recently began to try and claim back my bank charges from Lloyds TSB. I have sent the first letter asking for details of charges debited from my account in the last 6 years along with authorisation to debit the £10 fee from my account. I have now received a letter back stating that the bank has 40 days to respond (which i estimate to be 10 November) but they havent debited the £10 fee from my account as yet. What should I do?

Dont worry some banks do not charge you. You have their conformation letter so you are ok, just wait for the 40 days.:-D

But their letter to me stated that i should sign the attached letter to give permission to debit £10 from my account - which is what i did but to date it has not been debited

 

ok ring them or write to them and tell them that you have sent the signed letter back, explain that as far as you are concerned the 40 days have started from your iinitial request.

I rang the bank today, they confirmed they had received my authorisation to debit the £10 from my account. They advised that the letter notifying me of all the charges will be sent to me within the next 10 days and that once it was sent, the £10 would be debited.

I havent changed banks, in fact they are still charging my account! If by SAR you mean the first letter asking them to provide all charges made from the past 6 years - then yes i have just sent that to them and they should be sending the list of charges to me within the next 10 days.

Well thats up to you really. If you are thinking of trying to claim back any charges your bank has debited from you, its probably wise to open up a new account elsewhere, just in case your bank decide to close your account when they realise what you are trying to do. That hasnt happened to me yet, but I have read about it happening to a few people.

Today I have received my RFI back from the bank which I believed was supposed to be detailing the last 6 years of charges. The charges have been listed from 03/09/01 - 02/10/06 as a list but from 27/06/00-03/09/01 they have given me the full statements which show the charges. Can I still use those statements as proof of my charges? I am slightly confused because back in 00/01 I appear to have only been charged £5 overdraft usage fee for some of the the months - can I still claim this back?

Can anyone help me please - I have received the RFI so am I about to send them the 2nd letter asking for the refund of my charges. Do I attach the spreadsheet with this letter? If yes, should I use the simple or advanced version. Also, on my statements it details overdraft interest, should this be added to my request for a refund? Please help, I am anxious not to make a mistake with this.

Having sent my letter off along with the simple spreadsheet showing all the charges I have received over the last 6 years, I now have a letter from TSB refusing to refund the charges for the following reasons:

 

"You've mentioned the new guidelines from the OFT on credit card default charges. We don't agree with the OFT's thinking on this and we're still talking it through with them. But the important point is that the guidelines are about 'default' charges that people pay when they break an agreement with us. The fees we charge for dealing with your request to go over your agreed overdraft limit are not default charges because you havent broken your agreement. They are our prices for the service we provide in these situations"

 

:idea: My question is should I still go ahead and send the next letter giving them 14 days to refund or I will go to court? Is this a normal reply from TSB?

Rachel,

 

You really need to set up a thread in the Lloyds TSB forum, we will be able to advise you whether this is standard practice for them.

 

We can also answer any queries that you have as your claim progresses ;)

 

Best of luck

PLEASE READ THE FAQ's

I had started this thread in the wrong place - hopefully I am now in the correct place for a claim against TSB. The above question has just been answered and I am going to press ahead with the next letter giving them 14 more days before I proceed with a request for a court date. WATCH THIS SPACE

I have a few queries that I am hoping someone can help me with please.

 

I believe the next letter I should send is the LBA (letter 3 in the library templates folder). Is this correct as it seems pretty similiar to my previous letter?

 

I sent the simple spreadsheet where the charges were listed and the interest was calcuated for me, this was included this with my original letter. I didnt really understand about the interest so I am wondering if I have done the right thing as reading through other threads, a lot seems to be based on whether this has been submitted correctly.

 

Finally, can I add an amount onto the spreadsheet that was recently deducted from my bank account? If I can, do I have to highlight that I have done this in the LBA letter?

Hi Rachael

 

You can amend your charges spreadsheet with the new charges and adjust the interest as a few more days have passed since the first letter. Make sure you adjust to wording on your LBA to include the additional money being claimed. Send your LBA now. I am assuming that you have heard back from them with a rejection to all of your requests.
