    • If anybody has any advice here, it would be greatly appreciated, I already suffer with pre-existing disabilities & have struggled with this so far. 
    • so return of goods order etc etc read upload  scan pages to jpg, redact in mspaint. the convert to and merge to one mass PDF  read upload and use the online listed sites for all 3 stages. do you want to keep the car? i will guess this was a manual paper claimform direct from the co.court or was it org sent from salford bulk processing and has just got reaq ssigned?      
    • Speaking of the reformatory boys, here they are with all of their supporters, some of whom traveled with them from miles away, all carefully crammed together and photographed to look like there were more than about 80 .. rather like Farages last rally with even fewer people crammed around what looked like an ice cream van or mobile tea bar ... Although a number in the crowd apparently thought they were at a vintage car rally as they appeared to be chanting 'crank-her'. A vintage Bentley must be out of view.   Is this all there is? Its less than the Tory candidate. - shut up and smile while they get a camera angle that looks better

    • Now that is an interesting article which adds afew perspective that I hadn't thought significant - but on reflection of the perspectives offered ... Now Starmer is no Blair, however 'blairite he may be perceived, but the Tories aren't tories and aren't even remotely liberal   The fast 'unannounced and unexpected election call from sunack may well be explained by the opinion linked that he hoped reform would be unprepared and effectively call a chunk of Farages largely empty bluster - making him look even more of a prat, leave scope for attacks on shabby reform candidates and mimimise core vote losses to reform - while throwing the 'middle ground' (relative) tories TO THE DOGS - and with the added bonus of likely pacifying his missu' desire to jogg off to sunny cal tout suite somewhat   thumb in the air - I expect about 140ish tory seats, but can hope for under a hundred Reform - got to admit the outside possibility of 1, maybe 2 seats with about 8% of the vote - but unlikely. I think projections of over 10% of the vote for reform is nudged and paid for speculation - but possible with the expected massive drives from Russian, Chinese and far right social media bot and troll prods targeting the gullible.

    • 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 inspired.

I've lurked on the threads for a while and finally got the courage up to write to them 2 weeks ago. I calculated my claims and sent the standard 1st letter.

I've just had back a letter today and they are offering half my claim already! Not bad for about 5 minutes work, thanks so much.

I'm now inspired to go for the full amount.

I have 1 question though, most of my charges are old, i.e. very close or over the 6 year mark. Each week more drop out of the 6 years. If this goes all the way to a court claim how strict to the 6 years are they? I ask as they are already offering probably more than strictly half what they owe if they looked at it properly. If I continue this my claim would really be a bit lower if the 6 year rule was strictly enforced. Its my fault really I got my statements about 67 months back but was too scared to go for it. Can I use that as my start date?

Cheers for everyones help

Bob

Hi bottomburp, thanks for that article. If this is the case then my 1st claim is actually under what I am owed? I dropped some of the earlier charges from my schedule as i thought they were passed the 6 years, i.e. 2000. Can I now go back and claim more? I'm about to send the LBA, shoudl I up my claim int his letter? How would you word somethign like this? "It has additionally come to my attention that my claim also includes £xxx from charges in 200-. Therefore I am looking for a refund of £original + £additional = £xxxx"?

 

I'll look into contractual intrerest but it looks mighty complicated

Cheers,

Bob

Hi, sorry for the delay. Work and Christmas took over. I've just spent an evening reading about Contractual Interest and trying out the spreadsheat. WOW! My claim has gone from £700 to £1700 at current APR authorised or almost £3k at 26% APR. I'm now reading up and seeing what others are experiencing. I see that it is rather difficult to Claim CI and there are a lot of defenses being filed when this is claimed. Anyone actually won their CI as well as their charges back?

Happy new year to you all as well!

New Prelim with Contractual Interest sent by signed for delivery...

Dear xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

RE: Revised request for repayment of charges

Your Ref: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

SORT CODE: xxxxxx ACCOUNT NUMBER: xxxxxxxxxx

 

Thank you for your letter dated xxxxxxxxx 2006, offering me the sum of xxxx. I am prepared to accept this amount as a part-payment only towards the full amount, which I have now recalculated.

 

While waiting for your response I have spent the time effectively, researching the issue of reclaiming charges. I now realise that I am entitled to add contractual interest to the whole of my claim. As I am substantially revising my request, and in the interests of fair play, please take this letter as a fresh preliminary request for repayment.

 

My request

I am writing to ask you to refund to me the charges which you have levied on my above-mentioned account as detailed in the supporting spreadsheet.

 

I now understand that the regime of fees which you have been applying to my account in relation to direct debit refusals, exceeding overdraft limits and so forth are unlawful at Common Law, Statute and recent consumer regulations. If you say that they are not, then will you please demonstrate this by letting me have a full breakdown of the costs to which you have been put by as a result of my breaches, in order to reassure me that your penalties really do reflect your costs.

Additionally, it has now been confirmed that your particularly high level of penalties are considered to be unfair per se by the OFT who reported on the 5th April 2006 and are therefore presumed to be unlawful in the absence of specific proof to the contrary.

 

Your responsibilities

I would draw your attention to the terms of the contract which you agreed to at the time that I opened my account. It is an implied term of that contract that you would conduct yourselves lawfully and in a manner which complies with UK law.

 

I am frankly shocked that you have operated my account in this way as I had always reposed confidence in your integrity and expertise as my fiduciary.

I consider that your repeated representations that your charges are fair and reasonable are deceptive and that they have deceived me into agreeing to pay them.

Your concealment of the true nature of your charges has prevented me from asserting my right until now.

 

 

 

What I require

 

I calculate that you have taken xxxx in unlawful charges within the 6 years since this coming to my notice in xxxxxxx 2006.

 

In addition to this amount, I also claim interest at a rate of 27.5% as set out in the attached schedule of charges. I believe this rate to be justified under the principle of mutuality and reciprocity:

 

Therefore the total amount owed as of today’s date is £xxxxxx

 

My targets

 

I hope that you will enter into a sincere dialogue with me about this matter and I am writing this letter to you on the assumption that you will prefer to do this than merely respond with standard letters and leaflets.

 

I will give you 14 days to reply to me accepting, unconditionally, my request in principle and letting me know a date by which I will receive payment.

 

If you do not respond, or you do not respond positively, within this time period, I shall send you a letter before action giving you a further 14 days in which to reflect. I believe that these targets are more than sufficient for a large company such as yours with dedicated staff and departments.

 

After that, there will be no further communication from me and I shall issue a claim at the expiry of the second deadline.

 

 

Yours Faithfully,

 

Bob :)

OK, I've now had another reply from Barclays. Any suggestion on what I do next?

 

The story so far...

1) I sent a standard claim for around 800

2) They have offered 350

3) I applied contractual interest at unauthorised rate and my claim went to over 1500. I sent the above new prelim

4) They replied saying sorry but tuff, our offer stands. They did not acknowledge the contractual interest at all.

5) This weekend I went through my statements again and I notice that some of my charges were previously refunded, approx 250, which leaves an outstanding balance of about 550 (without interest).

6) Also, when I originally requested my statements they sent them going back to 1998. During 1999- 2000 I was really badly charged. But as these were out of the 6 year window I didn't include them. Now I hear people are claiming more than the 6 years. If I did this it would add about another 300 to my claim + much higher contractual interest if I claimed this as well.

 

so do I:

1) Take the 350 and run

2) Go for the existing claim, less previous refunds, of 550 and demand a full refund

3) Do this but also apply contractual interest = about 1700 in total

or,

3) Go for all 8 years worth, less previous refunds, about 850 in charges + contractual interest = over 2500?

 

Any help of suggestions would be great.

Hope everyone else is still doing well with their claims!

Bob

Hi, Bob

 

These are my suggestions:

 

" so do I:

1) Take the 350 and run

2) Go for the existing claim, less previous refunds, of 550 and demand a full refund probably not

3) Do this but also apply contractual interest = about 1700 in total

or, Getting better

3) Go for all 8 years worth, less previous refunds, about 850 in charges + contractual interest = over 2500? Now that's the way to do it!
