    • if you have YOUR bank statements totalling who you paid and when regarding this debt.... and you have proof that unlawful fees/sums have been added to the sum adjudged in court from the HFC SD that you've now paid.... i would be putting all that evidence together and demanding cabot refund said figure in 14 days else you'll raise a court claim...but don't bluff. dx  
    • have you proved at what house was it left outside of & stolen from ...yours or the neighbours? the fact it was for a warranty return means nothing. neither does it that the repairer/retailer have special instructions with DPD for them not to leave a parcel outside unless specified by a customer ..you might have overruled them with your instructions on the DPD website, you stated, neighbour/safe space?? if it was left outside your door, which you appear to indicate RE: i can't see you winning this...you created your own problem with what you put on the DPD website?    
    • oh well i wonder what new fake documents they have made up then...for them to try this.... just to check nothing funky like Link have filed an n244 to lift the stay and strike out her defence....she hasnt moved since last court comms has she?   is this an n24? bit unusual for a 13mts stay to just be lifted... has she not received anything from link/kearns in the last fw weeks like a docs bundle? bit like this thread... https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/topic/466576-lc-assetlinkkearns-claim-form-2-mbna-cc/?do=findComment&comment=5256397  
    • if the agreement was taken out jan 23, then she has not reached the 1/3rd mark so the car has not become protected goods under the consumer credit act.  this puts her in a very very vulnerable position regarding ever keeping the car....whereby once they have issued a default notice they can legally send a guy with a flatbed (though they are NOT BAILIFFS and have ZERO legal powers) to collect the car.  if the car is kept on the public highway then they can simply take it away and she will legally owe the whole stated amount on the agreement AND lose the car. if it's on private property i'e like a driveway, ok they shouldn't take it without her agreeing, but if they do, it's not really on but its better than a court case and an inevitable loss with the granting a return of goods order. are these 'health reasons' likely to resolve themselves in the very short term (like a couple of months?) and can she immediately begin working again ? i'e has she got a job or would have to find one?  answer the above and we'll try and help. but she looks to be between rock and a hard place . whatever happens she will still have to pay the loan off...car or no car....unless you can appeal to the finance company's better nature using health reasons to back off for xxx months.

    • 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.

OK. You probably don't like Jolyon Maugham either, but he is a QC. He tweeted this earlier.

Breaking populist style news

 

Two men charged with allegedly sending grossly offensive, indecent, obscene, or menacing message or matter via a public communication network.

The material was alleged to contain images of Home Secretary Priti Patel.

The two men are also alleged to have sent racist material, potentially adding to their crimes.

 

It should be noted that the current home secretary, in between bouts of hurling abuse at those under her control,  has previously complained about a cartoon being racist as she saw it as showing her as a 'fat cow', despite the cartoon also showing whiter than Daz washed whites Johnson similarly.

 

Although the cartoon did show both Patel and Johnson with bovine features, it was seen by most as a simple statement on her BULLying and  a comment on what she and Boris Johnson continually spout - with no racist intent.

I actually dont agree with that headline or much of the assessment

IMO Johnson is almost certainly Antisocial Personality Disorder - where on the spectrum is harder to gauge, but certainly not high functioning

Johnson literally cant manage a pi** up in a brewary

Biggest lie of all is that the bumbling idiocy is a cover for smartness.

 

It would seem even Johnson thinks his own/Frosts hard sold cake and eat it 'grate deal' has quickly shown itself to just be yet another burdensome, unpalatable and inedible 'Eaton Mess' ..  made from reeaall poo

'Global Britain' has refused to let foreign journalists into the final G7 briefing.

 

Tweet from David Henig.

But I think more likely that the PM is simply angry that the EU and US are not believing a word he says on Northern Ireland, and is doubling down because he isn't used to this. This is, again, personal. The future of the UK rather less important than the future of Boris Johnson.

Each time I look at this thread, even the title is an offence and insult to the British (while it lasts) nation

 

What will we call England and Wales and its Tax haven protectorates?

 

Although Johnsons 'protection' runs to sub 20 miles now doesn't it?

No 10's culture war seems to be unravelling, at least I hope it is. Dividing the nation this way isn't clever. This is how the Irish Times sees it.

and at long last people are challenging him on it - far better than the 'ineffective opposition

 

Even the ERG *Steve Baker is using this to turn on him and Patel .. alongside the few remaining real Tories ...

his days would now really seem to be numbered, but I doubt we'll see much improvement with whatever numpty replaces him

 

I see the other nations of the soon to be ex union distancing themselves ever more from Johnsons England as the world considers dropping the UK off the face of the world map on  'freedom day for Covid and Covid deniers'
