    • Interesting question regarding what Government accounts opposition parties have access to, before an General Election. From what I understand, Government department accounts that are published are always lagging behind and would not include some amounts which are classified as 'commercially sensitive'.  Therefore opposition parties and Parliamentrary select committees would not have access to accounts which contain real time up to date information. If a new Government have found £20 billion of spending liabilities they did not know about, this could be true, as £20 billion is not that much when you look at total Government expenditure. Government department are making decisions on spending all of the time and it could be the previous Government were planning tax changes and/or spending cuts to balance the books.  Jeremy Hunt has recently said that if the Tories had stayed in Government and held an Autumn budget, it would have been very difficult to cut taxes as some had wanted.

    • ok your WS is wrong. Paragraph 16 and 17 says  you did not contract with evri but this is not true - see below  Furthermore to the eBay Powered By Packlink T&Cs that Evri is referring to, Clauses 3b and c of the T&Cs states:  (b)   Packlink is a package dispatch search engine that acts as an intermediary between its Users and Transport Agencies. Through the Website, Users can check the prices that different Transport Agencies offer for shipments and contract with the Transport Agency that best suits their needs on-line. (c)  Each User shall then enter into its own contract with the chosen Transport Agency. Packlink does not have any control over, and disclaims all liability that may arise in contracts between a User and a Transport Agency post 251 of occy thread - £844 lost    you should also add a paragraph on donough v Stevenson talking about the fact that even without contract there is still duty of care to goods and by failing to deliver this duty has been breached.   Make those changes and post it back up here and I'll check over things again

    • 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.

I’m currently trying to improve my credit rating as looking to get a mortgage but stupidly got into financial difficulty a few years ago and have a few defaults on my credit file, most have been passed onto Lowell.

 

Some are more recent but some I can’t even remember what they are for.

 

If anyone could help with how best to approach these it would be greatly appreciated.

nothing you can do to remove defaults

the defaults would have been placed on or before sale by the original creditors

nothing to with lowells.

Thanks for the reply! So it’s a case of waiting for them to drop off credit file some defaulted in 2016 so should drop off credit file next year 2022?

 

Does this mean Lowell can still chase for debt indefinitely even if no longer on file?

Once a debt has had nothing paid in for 6 years it becomes Statute barred and if Lowell tried court after that, the Statute Barred letter should see them off, so once off the credit file, if nothing paid or acknowledged, its like the Norwegian blue feet up in its cage.

We could do with some help from you.

as long as they have your correct and current address

simply ignore everything until/unless you get a letter of claim.

I have just received a letter from Overdales Solicitors on behalf of Lowell for various debts dating back to 2012 -2015 over a period with I was struggling financially.

 

I have just manage  to start to re building my credit file/score after years and do not want anything to jeopardy it as the letter is threatening a CCJ if I do not respond.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Yes you can normally we would advise Lowell direct but in this instance its one and the same. Put your CCA requests with payment in with response forms. Take copies and keep proof of postage.

Phone contracts are not credit

You don't need a CCA.

 

Simply state the Debt owner has failed to supply any required paperwork despite previous request s.

 

I suggest you go read a few mobile telecom threads.

No .

 

These will all go nowhere

 

Being charged for remaining months of a contract as a penalty because you cancelled?? Early is not on and is deemed an unlawful termination .

Hi again,

 

Have received a response from Overdales with the 'notice of assignments' for each debt.  They also state that they have raised a query with Lowell with regards to the other documents I requested. They also say that the account with Sky can be accessed online. So I suppose it's a case of waiting to see what Lowell say?

Hi,

 

I have received a reply from Overdales!  They enclose a final BT bill, and a final bill from only one of the Three mobile contracts but 2 sets of statements for both the 3 accounts listing payments etc I'm not sure who these are from Three or Lowell as they are printed on plain paper. They also say to log onto the sky account to view statements.

 

Just wondering where to go from here do I request more info? As they state if I do not respond they my issue a court claim.
