    • again a quick google search states Appeal a DVLA fine - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) i would not be appealing mind. it's only a summary charge which they rarely do court on and pass out the powerless DCA's whom are not bailiffs they have 6mts. see where they go. as you've sorn'd it will probably be nulled. dx  
    • There are a number of reasons why you may not have been issued a notice in the post within 14 days. If you were stopped by the police it may have been given verbally. In the case of speeding offences, the police may issue you with a conditional offer of a fixed penalty of 3 points and £100.00 fine by post or an offer of a speed awareness course. If the offence is considered too serious for a speed awareness course or fixed penalty you may be charged with an offence which normally occurs by way of the issue of a Single Justice Procedure Notice. If the vehicle within which the alleged offence took place was registered to another person or company there is technically no need for a notice to be issued to the driver. After the police have obtained details of the nominated the driver, they will normally send the notice to them, although there are no time limits within which they must do so (provided that the notice was received within 14 days by the registered keeper of the vehicle). In such circumstances, a person may receive a notice several months after the alleged offence too place but still be prosecuted. A Guide to a Notice of Intended Prosecution | Motoring Offence Lawyers the above copy n paste link has purely been copy n pasted here to inform you of the regs, which you could have done yourself by, as this is, a google search......... we do not ever recommend using such offered webservices! dont dx    
    • all DYL's are subject to a TRO. looking at this newish, ever increasing as old ind units have gotten removed, estate, there are only lines on one side, on the other there is a parking lane with traffic calming through which you mention. i seriously doubt your mate has any clue what he is talking about.!! its not a private housing assoc estate. so its a public council owned road. no construction co can just decide to draw their graffiti on a road. the DYLs are certainly there pre 2016 even before his home was built. now ive had a quick look to see if the main access to royal park road has signs. there is no royle park road even on your map but there is a royal barn road which leads to where you are parked royal road has a restriction sign on the pole by the fence of the electric substation jnc with gipsy lane there does not appear to be one leading in from the other end - tesco petrol station
    • Hi All. I was driving in Stevenage down a 40 road after coming off the motor way, i noticed my car felt a little "weird" i accelerated, then slowed the car down.  Shortly after i got stopped by a manned police car with a laser. During the stop the officer stated i was doing 54 in a 40, the conversation was short, but he said i would unlikely get a awareness course and it was most likely 3 points and a fine.  Mrs thought it was a good idea to have dairy when she is lactose intolerant on date night, we just got on our way.  At the time, i didnt admit to the offence, but did say i didnt realise and had slowed down in any case. The officers chest camera was recording and on. At the stop, he asked where to send the fine to, as i knew i would be travelling to visit family up north, i provided my temporary details at that location in Yorkshire. It is now 05/05 and i haven't received anything at either my home address in Stevenage or the temporary address. 1. Is there a time limit in which paperwork needs to be sent to me. 2. Should i query the ticket as i don't want to miss any deadlines (if so who do i check with?) OR should i keep quiet. 3. Given nothing has arrived in 20 days, is there a chance of appeal if and when it comes through? Many thanks CrazeUK
    • Hi All. A family friends car was having issues when she was on a trip visiting family up north at the beginning of January.  She ended up leaving it at my friends garage in the same location, who parked it on his forecourt to investigate the issue, however he said most likely it is beyond economical repair as its a serious gearbox fault. In the meantime i replaced her car with one of my spare cars. The insurance on the car then expired in at the end of January.  When the insurance expired, I sent a paper V890 paper as i didnt have her V5 Reference number in hand to do it online (i have a copy of this).  She didnt mention she hadnt received any confirmation as she didnt know if she would get one.  She then cancelled her road tax at the end of March (i think) as she was paying by DD. She then was travelling up north so didnt get her mail until last week. She received a letter dated 09/04/2024 stating she had failed to insure the vehicle and there was a £100 fine which could be reduced to £50 if she responds by 11/05/2024.  As soon as we noticed, i got her to dig  out the V5 and SORN'd the vehicle.   My friend has been a bit slow in checking the fault, however i suspect it will still be scrapped and is still on his forecourt. Is this possible to appeal?

    • 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.

No, I should let it go. Wait till you get a court date – and also there will be a date to submit a witness statement/skeleton argument and we can make the points there.

You are starting to sound worried

Finally an update. There was a lot of issues with the court, but I received a letter stating that I will be having a telephone hearing initially.


There is no date listed, nor much advice as to what I need to submit. It has been a month since I received this letter and I have not been given a date.

 

I have also had a lengthy "Court Bundle" via email from Chelsea Walton at Parcel2Go. It includes a witness statement, and many pages showing their booking process as their argument hinges on acceptance of their terms and conditions.

 

I imagine I will also need to do likewise, although mine will be shorter due to the simplicity of my argument.

5. The Claimant selected the ‘No’ This does mean that at this stage of the booking process, Claimant fully accepted
their goods would be sent on a zero-protection basis.

 

there is no such service as parcels with/without ins are not separated nor externally marked differently.

In my case there were issues with the courts losing my documents, so it's taken a long time - well over 6 months.


I don't think this is normal however. I now have a court date and am preparing the document detailing my argument.

The letter from the court suggests both parties should make every effort to settle before the court date.


Therefore to show willing I emailed the defendant suggesting it was a strange risk for them to take for the sake of £125, as if I were successful it may lead to numerous similar claims.

 

I expect nothing, and likely didn't need to, but at least I have made contact.

Update:

Following my email for settlement, they increased the £75 offer from mediation to £102.50.

I rejected and outlined why it made no sense for them to risk losing for a potential saving of £72.50.

I offered to settle for £5 less than the item value - i.e. £175.

I expect this would never have reached the court, and I could have settled for the full amount, but my time has a value also.

Thank you for your ongoing help in the matter, and I apologise for not seeing this through to court.

I suspect i'd have been less weary with the process if it hadn't taken a year, with the court losing my documents on 2 separate occasions and various other issues.

Thanks for the update – and congratulations on your result.

Of course we would be pleased for somebody to go all the way to court in order to blow the whole thing wide open – but we appreciate that our interests as a campaigning website are not necessarily aligned with the people that we help.

Important thing is that you get your result – you get your money back – and you have stood your ground. This is a good result for you and it is a good result for us.

Thanks for updating us.

Congratulations on finally winning this long case! 
 

im currently going through an issue with hermes losing my ps5 of which I used parcel2go. I think for other readers it’s probably best to go against hermes rather than parcel2go. I’m undecided as yet but this kind of shifted me to go against hermes, as they ultimately lost it.

 

hermes have admitted it’s lost but parcel2go are taking a very long time to get back to me now

It will always be that way. Parcel2Go is just an intermediary they don't have their own couriers.

 

It's identical to my situation. I made my claim against P2G. I had no direct contact with Hermes, hence P2G being more logical and on bankfodders advice as seen earlier in the thread.
