    • 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.

Hi - after some advice please.

Had a credit card with Vanquis handed over to Lowell on 24/04/2016.

When they originally contacted me I dispute the outstanding amount as there were PPI charges on the account which I trying to get back from Vanquis.  Stopped receiving letters from Lowell so that was that. 

back in 2019/2020 started getting letters again from Lowell which I disputed. 

I did ask for a copy of the notice of assignment but got sent an email copy which was not on a letterhead also contact numbers missing so queried this as not being a true copy and something they had just printed off.  The amount on the NOA is £1516 but on my credit record its £1443 so not sure why the amounts are different. 

About a week before receiving the claim form I got a letter from Lowell saying that they had wrongly put charges on my account and would be refunding these, although did not give amounts.

Got a claim form from them on 26/11/2021 issued by Oversales but the amount in the form does not reflect any refund either.  I have not idea why my credit record saying £1443 but they are stating £1516.

I will be replying to the claim form via moneyclaims and send SAR to Oversales but would appreciate advice etc regarding my defence.

I am attaching copies of letters I have from them.

Reason for the above was to avoid the issue of a letter of claim.  If the NOA was incorrect they would have no reason to issue a Letter of Claim.  Not having a legal background thought this was the best way.

Hi - request copy of my file held by Lowell via their solicitors Overdales.

 

Got an email yesterday saying my file is ready for viewing online and I am just waiting for the passcode to arrive via the post.

 

What do I need to look for in the pack. 

have already sent me a copy of my original agreement signed online. 

 

What do I need to put my defence as being the PPI they charged which I disputed. 

Also the different amounts in their requests for payments.

They also contacted me saying they were going to refund part of their charges which had been done in error but this has not been done. 

I cannot find the letter but I am hoping it will be in the pack.

I am not 1000% sure, Jan 2016 is the date they have on my credit report for a default but according to the statement of my payments they have on file my last payment date was May 2015.  See attached extract from the statement they have on file.

 

vanquis statement last pay.pdf

 

That was from me yes but after that I queried charges with them as well as doing a PPI claim with them but never heard back. 

As you can see in the posts payment was stopped due to hubby not working in May 2015.

under the login details of the claim you have to mcol did it ever work for this claim from day 1?

 

i'm wondering if you had an earlier login as you have other claim threads so must have already registered and cant have 2 logins 

 

here is the defence you need to file

 


 1 The Claimant's claim was issued on (insert date).

 2 The Defendant contends that the Claimant's claim so issued is a claim in contract and is statute barred pursuant to the provisions of section 5 of the limitation act 1980. 
.
If, which is denied, the claimant contends that the Defendant is in breach of the alleged contract, in excess of 6 years have elapsed since the date on which any cause of action for breach accrued for the benefit of the Claimant.
.
 3 The Claimant's claim to be entitled to payment of £[insert figure from their POC]  or any other sum, or relief of any kind is denied.

 

.....................

 

MCOL is only one way of responding to a claim. 
(AOS, DEFENCE, N180 ETC)
.
If you are having problems logging in, or would prefer not to use MCOL
you can fax, email or post your response to the Court instead. 

If you send your response by e mail 
please send it to [email protected]

Never got onto MCOL

 

I did email saying I was struggling and got a reply saying site was having problems and to email.  Have proof I did try.

d

Overdales also contacted me on 30/04 and 07/09 (same letter) saying I had 30 days to contact them or CCJ would be issued.  Which I ignored

 

then got a letter on 02/12 which was a Notice of Claim. 

Don't understand why they did a CCJ after 2nd letter and not 1st????

 

How do I get it taken off my credit file?
