    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance
    • I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would 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.

"Poor f**king Sue Grey. With Johnson still refusing to admit that he knew it was a party, her job is, essentially, to look in Boris’s pants, and work out if he knows he’s shat himself - or if he genuinely thinks his own trousers are a toilet."

I don't have a good feeling about the Sue Gray report after the non-apology yesterday and Johnson making a rare visit to the MPs' tearoom to say they/he didn't deserve to be in trouble for this.

 

As I understand it, Sue Grey reports to Simon Case who reports to the PM?

There's a very simple test which should be applied to Downing Street drinks - if any other workplace had held such an after work party, would that have been deemed ok?  I mean, let's take the example of a food factory or postal workers or bus drivers - you know, the really useful people who could have done with a break.

One of his nondescript ministers was briefing that on TV from the podeum around the time the party was being held

... clearly Johnson couldn't brief at the podium ... as he was at the party

 

Makes you wonder where the other senior podium regulars were eh? ...

back to sue gray

- I have no sympathy, her career is hardly based on propriety and ethicslet alone morals and personal honour is it?

 

She now has the choice of:

Whitewash: There is no evidence I've seen (I haven't looked and my assistant blocked any being delivered to me) that the PM knew these aides were arranging that despite the PM turning up at 6PM sharp with Carry and some gin ..

 

Mild Whitewash: I have been unable to get anything as no-ones talking to me. So I can only asses based on that and claim I've found nothing.

 

Honesty: Johnson is a lying corrupt POS. Heres the email as sent out, all the invitees, a list of who attended, and it was either Johnsons arrangement or he OK's it in clear breach of the spirit and letter of the law .. repeatedly.

 

 

No 3 would end her career as Johnson and case may be her immediate basses at the moment - but she's part of the problem, not the solution. Just like Cress.

She now has the choice of:

 

Whitewash: There is no evidence I've seen (I haven't looked and my assistant blocked any being delivered to me) that the PM knew anything whatsoever about these aides arranging such a business meeting,

and the PM was totally unaware of the email inviting people to attend from 6PM and to bring a bottle

... and that the PM turning up at 6PM sharp with Carry and some gin was pure coincidence.

 

Mild Whitewash: I have been unable to get anything as no-ones talking to me. So I can only ass-ess based on that and claim I've found nothing.

Sue Grays' Grey morals? :

"Pages 53 to 55 of the Greensill report from July 2021 show how determinedly the then-cabinet secretary (the late Jeremy Heywood) wanted Lex Greensill to get a CBE. The report quotes Sue Gray as writing: "I’ve told [an official in the Honours and Appointments Secretariat] that Lex must remain an OBE and while we can put him forward for a CBE, it will be outrageous if he gets one."

Greensill got his CBE four months later. "

Boris 'The Corrupt Liar' Johnson has cancelled a visit to a vaccination center, reportedly because of an anonymous family member being reported as positive (that Boris is a liar?) and he should minimise contact with people with awkward questions per the rules,

and nothing to do with actually avoiding awkward questions, or as a shallow,  transparent attempt to appear as if he gives a crap about people or rules, especially his own.

 

Its unclear whether the relative is his father, believed by some to have been incommunicado in the warmer climes of Europe for some considerable time having traveled via a red list avoiding route,

or his second cousin 3 times removed who has resided their whole life in America never having left Texas.

 

Allegations that its Princess nut nut and she caught Covid and cold sores at the business party having been involved in a 'who can Chug most from a shared Gin bottle' contest are currently nothing but unconfirmed rumor.

 

Its further reported that a minister has stated that he is certain that Boris is sincere in his claim that he has broken no rules

- apparently as the minister is genuinely convinced that Boris is utterly assured in his belief rules only apply to others.

An unidentified spokesperson, when asked if The patron of lies, corruption and plagues had perhaps deliberately infected a soon to be inconveniently expensive accoutrement, hoping any fatality would be lost among the statistics of the many many thousands of others who died due to his ‘policies and practices’

 

The spokesperson retorted:

‘Don’t be daft, he was (and still is) sure of his untouchability protecting him from any criminality or misconduct charges and all the money would still come rolling in from his VIPals paying for whatever extravagance she may want.

 

The spokesperson then added:

that he just wanted rid is perhaps another matter, but anyway his febrile forward planning skills would make the issue unlikely despite it being a simple matter of getting her swigging from a gin bottle with someone with Omicron ... unless maybe he's still pen paling demonic ... or dug out some of the plans he left behind

.. or maybe he had a flashback to the Shakespeare studies he paid little attention to?

In a way I can understand the Mets stance given that the UK Government has already publicly stated utter cr ... err mixed messaging about what is and isnt intended under the laws they have passed ..

eg

Is it OK to travel travel across the country while infected to an abode of your choosing, and/or travel 60 miles to test your eyesight in a lockdown - apparently yes

Can you travel from home to home in a lockdown - apparently yes if you are rich enough to have multiple homes and a minister or a spad in a position of power

Can you have drunken 'business meetings' where any business discussed (if any) is in a passing - apparently yes according to Johnson

 

That our 'democracy' is in a position to be abused and misused (IMO) with convicts holding the keys as it were ... is not strictly an issue for the Met - corrupt or not itself. In fact especially not if it is also corrupt.

Have to say that one provoked an extreme reaction in me.  Making out he was some sort of hero because he 'had covid' when he obviously caught it through reckless behaviour.  He and any employees who sought NHS treatment for covid should be sent the bill.

I truly believe that if it hadn't been a convenient excuse for Boris the Corrupt to avoid questions and hope everything blows over, we'd never have heard anything of any (alleged) infection whether anyone is infected or not
