    • I see that at the start of your thread you said they hadn't sent a Letter of Claim.  And in fact in all the uploaded material there is no LoC.  This is great news.  Even were you to lose - you won't - the judge would chop off a chunk of the money for their non-respect of PAPLOC. However, I'm a bit confused as you've named the file name as a SAR.  Are you sure about this?  Did you send any other letters apart from the one dx advised which was a CPR request (not a SAR) to DCBL (not Group Nexus).  I'm not being pernickety, this will be important for your Witness Statement further down the line.
    • I didn’t say it wouldn’t. That is not the issue here. To continue driving after the licence has expired (under s88), the driver must have submitted a “qualifying application”.  An application disclosing a relevant medical condition (of which sleep apnoea is one) is not a “qualifying application”, This means the driver cannot take advantage of s88 and must wait for the DVLA to make its decision before resuming driving. The driver’s belief is irrelevant. The fact that a licence was eventually granted may mitigate the offence, but  does it does not provide a defence. But this driver didn’t meet the conditions. I explained why in my earlier post. He only meets the conditions if his application does not declare a relevant medical condition. His did. As I explained, after his birthday he did not hold a licence that could be revoked. In my view it doesn’t matter what it says. The offence is committed because his application declared a medical condition. Meanwhile his licence expired and s88 is not available to him. The GP letter would form part of the material the DVLA would use to complete their investigations. But until those enquiries are completed he could not drive. The offence does not carry points or a disqualification (because a licence could have been held by your father). It only carries a fine and the guideline is half a week’s net income. If he pleads guilty that fine will be reduced by a third. He will also pay a surcharge of 40% of that fine. But the big difference is prosecution costs: a guilty plea will see costs of about £90 ordered whilst being convicted following a trial will see costs in the region of £600.

    • 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.

No, we are nearly on top of Christmas. You need to be sure that you are in a position to be able to concentrate on it and also it's been some time so we need to catch up on the thread and remember where we are.

would it be easier to pay them off but to ensure no default is registered and that I'm not admitting any liability for an easier life as the extended family have offered to pay them back or should I continue to fight as I'm innocent in all of this 

It will be 2yrs in Jan since I've been fighting with Aviva to get them to see their error

Yes if you could do that but make sure that they understand that the payment is made without any admission of liability and also make it clear to them that you intend to be bringing legal action against them on various issues including the recovery of the money.

Tell them that when you bring the legal action against them you will be seeking the recovery of the money plus interest.

Tell them that they are accepting the money on that basis.

Maybe you should send them this letter in advance of the payment and tell them that once they indicate that they understand the situation that you will make the payment

would you mind helping me draft the letter up please with me being on high painkillers 

I do not want any defaults registering on my name and its no admission of liability 

I'd really appreciate this and in the meantime I'll await for the family to give me the money

Are you sure that there is nothing on your credit file already?

It's rubbish that they have no control over the default. It is they who place the default.

They have direct access to the credit reference agency computer because they are a subscriber. They simply access their portal and they register the default.

They are lying to you

exactly I learnt that along the way when I was contesting the lines and lines of entries on my credit file 

This needs to be reiterated in the letter alongside no admission of liability 

 

When you say I will recover costs along with interest are we working on the basis that I will be taking it to court when I'm back in the country? Sorry confused by that bit

Well of course. You don't think they don't give you the money back for you Christmas to you?

 I still take them to court ?

is this in the hope they write the debt off without asking for payment?

Can we draft a letter please that I can send on to them reiterating the above points we have discussed ie no default,  recovery of monies, admitting they have set the policy up without speaking to me and have taken a 3rd parties word of authority as given

happy new year!

Just to update you I'm back in the country I haven't received anything as of yet from Aviva apart from the default notice letters I received in Dec nothing since i

Question is do I sit tight now and see what else is thrown at me or do I start building my case up ?

Extended family will be paying the 3k aviva is owed to get them off my back but I haven't received anything yet just words for now

Why pay if you don't owe it (unless it is to mitigate the harm it is causing your credit file, if iy is causing you harm here and now).

It may be harder to recoup the money later.

 

If it is (instead) that they are threatening to take it to court ... then let them: you want the matter heard so they can no longer ignore that they allowed the fraudulent application and failed to undertake due dilligence. If there are other proceedings that may impact (like your relative being prosecuted!), then (one the claim ahs been issued!), you ask the court to stay any claim against you until those other relevant proceedings have been heard.......

i dont owe them anything and I havent used the insurance or seen any benefit from it and so far nothing is showing on my credit file as adversely impacting my credit file

Aviva have openly put it on an email to me that the contract was entered via Mr Z

I was just going to pay to get rid of them as I've been fighting this for 2yrs but I guess you're right why should I pay them for setting up a policy fraudulently in my name and Mr Z has got away with having the money refunded back to him and having use of the insurance 

I guess I'll sit tight till I get any further correspondence from Aviva I got back from abroad after sustaining an injury so I was touching base with the group 

Thank you for the input appreciate it 😊

  • AndyOrch changed the title to Unfair treatment by Aviva in fraudulent application

I don't wish to ask what may be a tactless or insensitive question, but if your extended family are willing to pay £3k to Aviva to get them off your back (which is something I can fully understand from your point of view, even if I might not recommend it) why doesn't your extended family just put pressure on Mr Z (isn't he your brother?) to pay the £3k?  Or the family treats the £3k as a loan to Mr Z?

 

Or is this an awkward family issue best left alone?  (Apologies if I'm causing any unintended offence - but I have to ask.  The person at fault here is your brother but nobody in your family seems willing to take issue with him.  They seem to blame you if I recall correctly)

the police turned it as a domestic and decided to take no further action as the eldest brother gave a statement to say he was present when a verbal agreement was made which is false

, the police ignored all the evidence and even the fact an extended family member was witness to his admission of the insurance and how he took the money back etc

They have all asked him to pay the 3k back,  he wont pay it so now the eldest 2 brothers are having the money knocked off from their inheritance share to pay this off .

As you're all aware I had a nasty accident abroad where I dislocated my knee and fractured my ankle and arm all on my left side and I've not heard back from aviva since their default letters that they sent in Dec

its the eldest brother that talks to him we all fell out over our parents inheritance Mr Z and the eldest surfaced their greed 

 

Hes refusing to pay anything out of his share he also has the 3k refunded from aviva which they kindly gave him so its all words at the minute that they will be giving me 3k for aviva 

 

Even if I pay aviva back that's by no means admission of liability but I don't want any adverse affect on my credit report and its just to get them off my back but then I don't see why I should pay aviva back when they have happily facilitated the fraud 

 

Yes recovering , not sure if well,  I had xrays yesterday and was sent to A&E and returned with crutches and today I received a call  that doctors want to see me in orthopaedic on mon 

 

something tells me that the joints haven't healed as I was told

Dont be forced to do anything just because you are scared of credit file crap.

If they do, that could be a blessing as youd then be able to goto the FOS, and that will cost aviva+£650 even before they start. And believe me on this story they would not leave a stone unturned.
