    • no need to use it. it doubles the size of the thread and makes it very diff to find replies on small screens too. just like @username it - sends unnecessary alerts to people. everyone that's posted on your thread already inc you ...gets an automatic email alert when someone else posts.
    • Hello all,   I ordered a laptop online about 16 months ago. The laptop was faulty and I was supposed to send it back within guarantee but didn't for various reasons. I contacted the company a few months later and they said they will still fix it for me free of charge but I'd have to pay to send it to them and they will pay to send it back to me. The parcel arrived there fine. Company had fixed it and they sent it via dpd. I was working in the office so I asked my neighbours who would be in, as there's been a history of parcel thefts on our street. I had 2 neighbours who offered but when I went to update delivery instructions, their door number wasn't on the drop down despite sharing the same post code.  I then selected a neighbour who I thought would likely be in and also selected other in the safe place selection and put the number of the neighbour who I knew would definitely be in and they left my parcel outside and the parcel was stolen. DPD didn't want to deal with me and said I need to speak to the retailer. The retailer said DPD have special instructions from them not to leave a parcel outside unless specified by a customer. The retailer then said they could see my instructions said leave in a safe space but I have no porch. My front door just opens onto the road and the driver made no attempt to conceal it.  Anyway, I would like to know if I have rights here because the delivery wasn't for an item that I just bought. It was initially delivered but stopped working within the warranty period and they agreed to fix it for free.  Appreciate your help 🙏🏼   Thanks!

    • 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.

takeout dates of each debt please

and the defaulted date of each if its still showing on credit files.

forget the OD debts simply stop paying

get an sar off to each OC of each OD debt too.

 

as for the rest bar the 2 still with the OC's

send each DCA a CCA request as advised above

bet 90% of the debts will be unenforceable cash cow accounts.

 

plenty of like threads here to read...

I understand the cca requests as you tell them you are waiting to receive the relevant documents before you make any more payments.  But unsure what to say regarding the od accounts and the sar requests.  

 

Please advise

 

Once again, thanks for your help 

 

 

Let the od's run dont pay anymore

 

As for the cca's i doubt you need to pay in the next 12+2 working days anyway??

Just for the record , under certain circumstances,  overdrafts do now fall under the CCA and you can send CCA requests- there is case law MFS Portfolio Limited v Phelan & West. However, most debt purchasers don't actually realise that. 

 

In my experience, RBS/Natwest are reluctant to sell on debts that are being paid- they didn't sell mine for a long time and when they did to Cabot , Cabot were unable to find the agreement.

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

OD's only might poss be covered by section 5 i believe... did you ever sign anything on either OD, if not pointless sending a CCA.

 

as for if or when you get any returns for any CCA requests start a new topic in the name of the OC and scan up the CCa return to one multipager PDF

Ignore them until or unless you get a letter of claim.

Just to be factually correct HHJ Walden-Smith did say that current accounts were subject to S78 and therefore if the creditor did not comply the account would be UE as per S78(6) CCA. I suppose it depends if you want to run the unenforecability argument and try not to get a claim or even a letter of claim or feel you have a strong enough case to defend if a claim lands on your doormat. I personally favour the former as getting a letter of claim and/or a claim form is really rather stressful.

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

Yes but that was on appeal and only granted because of lack of proof of assignment......not on the question of section 78 vs current accounts.....initially the case was lost at County Court level. Either way this decision is not a binding decision on other courts as HHJ Walden-Smith was sitting as a Circuit Judge and not as a High Court Judge. .

Very true Andy. Glad to see you read the post about it. I wasn't saying a case had been won on it but the protection supplied by S78 was available for overdrafts and that the old arguments as given by Dx were no longer entirely accurate. Therefore there may be a point in sending S78 requests to overdrafts

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

I've not read any posts but was aware of the case...but that was one judge and a circuit judge in this instance...but most district judges would stick to the norm and accept that sec 78 is not applicable to current accounts as they are excluded due to part V

 

You can still request documentation for current accounts using 74A 74B...although none compliance would not render them unenforceable but could assist in any defence challenging a claim.

 

Alternatively you  could use sec 61 CCA1974 in questioning the enforceability if we run with  HHJ Walden-Smith given that she insists a current account is a regulated running credit agreement.:-D

We could do with some help from you.

It was the way you wrote which was very similar to a linked in post hence my thought you had read the post. As HHJ  Walden-Smith was sitting as a circuit judge , you would hope her decision would be more persuasive than a  DJ or DDJ.

Hi, have sent all dca's cca requests. The majority have replied that either they haven't been able to speak to oc. Or they are awaiting to hear from oc.

Stopped all payments for nearly two months now.

I have currently blocked phone calls from dca's and am ignoring letters asking for new plans to be set up.

Am I doing the right thing or should I be responding to the dca's  in any way.

Many thanks for your help

Thanks for your reply. 

So dont answer any calls or reply to any mail.

Getting lots of calls and messages from Cabot but at minute only asking about missed payments and setting up new plans

Ignore them , let those idiots sing for it. Highly unlikely they will ever be getting any from you again.

 

If you should happen to accidentally pick up, no need to be rude ‘ sorry I don’t give out personal details on the phone, goodbye’

We could do with some help from you.
