    • Hello, welcome to CAG. Could you let us have the information we ask for in the forum sticky please? We need the information to start working on your case. Once we have that, I'll get you to answer a different set of questions. Best, HB
    • Hi there,  Long story short, I was working a year ago in a city centre and the site operator I was working with told me I could park in a private car park as they had an arrangement with the owner. I came back to a parking charge  from UK Parking Control, and the site operator subsequently couldn't get hold of the private car park owner and haven't been able to since. Fast forward to today, I have received multiple legal threats from DCB Legal acting for UK Parking Control I have now been issued with a court hearing along with a date. I have to file my witness statement for a court hearing later this summer.  I realise that I could have handled the situation better and am already aware of that. I was wondering what my options are at this stage? I am very keen to avoid a CCJ as it would obviously be disastrous for my credit score. Any advice appreciated. My current plan is to file a witness statement and hope the case is discontinued. Thank you for any advice in advance.
    • I run a small retail business selling cards & gifts ( all my sales are done on a face - face basis  ) & noticed one of the settlement amounts on the card terminal bank deposits was short so contacted the card company which said a customer has requested a chargeback on a sale the reason saying the goods bought was not fit for the purpose purchased for. I have old fashion till which does not show any sales or descriptions of what is bought, plus when the settlement statements match up i shred the sale receipts. The card company told me the transaction was paid for with the customers phone & shows on my portal. They have asked me for sales prof, cctv, terminal receipt of the transaction which I have none, as this was done a few weeks later. I have asked for pictures to prove the items are not fit for the purpose purchased for plus said if the customer can return them i would give them a full refund but have had nothing back plus no pictures. Also I have had no communication with the customer even asking me for a full refund. They have now closed the case & awarded the customer the full refund. Any advice would much be appreciated

    • 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, hope everyone is well.

 

Just received a letter from Resolvecall who are working on behalf of Cabot regarding a RBS Credit card account they have brought.

 

Saying the usual please contact within 7 days or we will come to you etc.

 

No payments have been made since mid 2015 and was defaulted Jan 2016, no CCA has been asked for.

 

At the moment I don't want anyone turning up at my door, how is the best way to handle this.

 

Thanks

 

JJ

Tell them don't bother to come round and tell them you want a CCA.

If somebody does come round then greet them with a telephone taking a video of them. Stay very polite but tell them to go away and tell them that their video image will be put on YouTube and also on this forum. And do it

My site team colleague @dx100uk will probably be along soon with some more precise advice

Just some self employed debt collector, who has zero legal powers. Don't even bother answering the door, that's if they do turn up. Jan 2022 it will be statute barred anyway. You could also send a CCA request, it seems unlikely they will be able to produce one for a debt that old.

We could do with some help from you.

The last payment was made around June - July 2015

It was taken out at my older address 

 

Cabot took over the debt 6 months ago so had the normal or introducing themselves, then the normal please contact then the last one about a month ago saying they were instructing resolvecall to pay me a visit.

good.

 

ever sent cabot a cca request?

 

resolvecall might be the first baby steps toward a letter of claim and court as this is only 6mts away from sb.

 

granted debt buyers always leave things till the 6yrs is almost up before doing so to rack up court interest on the debt, but it's p'haps worthy to see what cards they have now and be prepared.

Doesn’t matter, they are just phishing , looking on your credit file and using the address that they find. That means they could legally send a claim form to your old address and you’d know nothing about it until you found a CCJ!

 

Informing them in writing of your current address takes that risk away completely .

ideally a creditor should default you within 3-6mts, but those ico guidelines went out the windows in 20`4 i think

it could be bought up in a defence should they issue a claim.

 

defaulted date+14 days is now regarded as sb date on most recent agreements where sec 87 applies
