    • What do you guys think the chances are for her?   She followed the law, they didnt, then they engage in deception, would the judge take kindly to being lied to by these clowns? If we have a case then we should proceed and not allow these blatant dishonest cheaters to succeed 
    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • Yes, it was, but in practice we've found time after time that judges will not rule against PPCs solely on the lack of PP.  They should - but they don't.  We include illegal signage in WSs, but more as a tactic to show the PPC up as spvis rather than in the hope that the judge will act on that one point alone. But sue them for what?  They haven't really done much apart from sending you stupid letters. Breach of GDPR?  It could be argued they knew you had Supremacy of Contact but it's a a long shot. Trespass to your vehicle?  I know someone on the Parking Prankster blog did that but it's one case out of thousands. Surely best to defy them and put the onus on them to sue you.  Make them carry the risk.  And if they finally do - smash them. If you want, I suppose you could have a laugh at the MA's expense.  Tell them about the criminality they have endorsed and give them 24 hours to have your tickets cancelled and have the signs removed - otherwise you will contact the council to start enforcement for breach of planning permission.

    • 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 Zootscoot,

 

The covering letter from KMC merely stated that they had enclosed a complete list of mortgage transactions applied to my mortgage account & that they had included the terms & conditions of my mortgage with them.

 

But the list does itemise the redemption figure of £358,266.43 of which the final Interest charge of £10,700.85 is included. It is the final Interest ( which as i say the list fails to itemise as a separate figure), that I particularly want to try and recovey at least some of. But i have no idea how to go about it.

 

Sould i be writing to KMC again, asking them to itemise the redemption figure as part of my SAR request, or can i just proceed to court & if so how do i do so? Thanks Zoot and anyone else who can kindly assist.

Unicorn96, thanks for wishing me luck, I’m fairly certain that I need all the luck I can get.

I would be like the blind leading the blind, in giving you any ideas as to how to proceed against KMC, as I simply have no idea how to pursue KMC myself, hence my plea for assistance; but there are great Consumer Action Group people who I’m certain can assist. So, I’d say start a thread; people will come to your aid. You can also watch my thread & see what happens for me & use it as a guide, if whatever is written in this thread, is of any use to you.

I wish you too, all the best with your KMC battle.

bumo bumo.

 

Please, please, can someone, a moderator, anyone, please assist re what my next course of actioin should be regarding recovering the Interest KMC charged as part of the redemption fee on my mortgage. Thanks

 

My advice is sit tight at the moment there's an important judgment being handed down on Thursday regarding an ERC claim. I will update later this week.

Hi All,

One person has taken my advice re: ERC overcharge from KMC and got a small refund. I would love more people to look at their redemption statements. The ERC should only apply to the starting balance (what you initially borrowed) plus MEAF and deeds release. They appear to be charging ERC on the whole balance at redemption including arrears, monthly penalties etc. This is in clear breach of their T&C. They claim its an error however its computer generated. In other words everyone with arrears etc will be effected. Just look at your figures. If I'm right please, please let me know! Good luck all.

My claim on this KMC mortgage would NOT be for an ERC as i redeemed my mortgage after the redemption period had passed. But KMC deduced £10,700 in Interest.

 

The Opening balance of my mortage when i first took it was £348,822.67. At redemption it was £358,266.43.

 

nz1313, you previously said that you are claiming overcharge fees from KMC, do you think i can claim for overcharged Interest? If so now that i have received the SAR statement what would i do next?

Hi 00765,

The overcharge I mentioned relates to ERC only. You would need to get them to tell you what the interest was for. Were you in arrears at redemption? Without knowing what your position was its hard to comment. You really need them to break this down for you and explain. Sorry I can't help futher. Good luck.

Hi Paul - any news on this?

 

Richard:)

 

Yes, judgment was handed down yesterday unfortunatley the case was dismised, but not is all lossed yet the judge is allowing the defendant another bite of the chery because the defendant made it clear he had overlooked a crucial core term in the contract.

Hi Paulwlton,

 

Why was the case dismissed? What was the core term?

 

The case was dismissed because the court decided the contract wasn't governed by UCTA UTCC. I'm not sure on the core term yet.

Hi

This is whant I've been asking for a long time and nobody can tell my why you pay interest on money you pay back early?

I am taking a case against Kensington myself and have put this in the claim as then we will find out, if you enclose the template for discloseure and FULL one which will inlude all charges and costs as in my case solicitors bills which have a VAT cost which they should not have added.

so lets see what happens.

I want to try & claim back some of the £17,000 in Early Repayment fees + £15,000 interest, that Kensington Mortgage Company took, when I recently completed on the sale of my home. I took the mortgage out about 2yrs ago & the penalty period would have ended next October 2007. Could someone please give me some guidance regarding how i can go about trying to reclaim some of the money & what chance i have of any success. I only found out the figure a day before completion. I sent a fax to KMC on the day before completion, demanding for a reduction in the fees but they must have just laughed all the way to the bank with my money, as i have of course, not received a reply. Right now i am so angry & frustrated, I can't think straight.

 

I am in a similar state to u I ended mortgage early and was charged £20k penalty fee. Am I right in thinking there is nothing much u can do about unreasonable penalty charges?
