    • Write to the IPC complaining that UKPC have not observed the requirements of PoFA . IPC  Waterside House, Macclesfield SK10 9NR Dear IPC, I am writing to complain about a serious breach of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 by UKPCM. I feel that as it is more a breach of the Act rather than not just  complying with your Code of Practice which is why I am bypassing your operator. Should you decide to insist that I first complain to your operator, I will instead pass over my complaint to the ICO and the DVLA . My story starts with being issued a windscreen PCN on 8/3/24 which was almost immediately removed and a second  PCN was then  sent by post on 13/3/24  [deemed delivered 15/3/24] which I did not receive and had to send an sar to have that particular mess revealed later  but that is not the reason for my complaint. UKPC then sent a Keeper Liability Notice dated 12/4/24 warning me that as 28 days have now elapsed, I as keeper am now liable for the charge.  This is in direct contravention of PoFA since the keeper does not become liable to pay until the day after the original PCN is deemed to have been given which would have been 13/4/24 -a Saturday ]. Not only does it not comply with PoFA but it fails to adhere to your Code of Practice and is in breach of their agreement with the DVLA. You will be aware that this is not the first time that UKPC have fallen foul of the DVLA and presumably yourselves. I have included copies of both Notices for information. You will realise the seriousness of this situation if this is standard practice from the UKPC to all motorists or just those where windscreen tickets are involved since the Law regarding PoFA is being abused and is unfair to misguide motorists. I await your  response which I understand will usually be within a week. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I would think that should be sufficient for the IPC to cancel your PCN though  you should await comments from the Site team before sending your complaint. Don't forget to include both PCNs.

    • 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.

Just been on the phone to them (took over an hour to get through).  Their backlog is such that they're currently only processing things that came through on the 4th October.  So still likely 2-3 weeks before we know whether Evri actually responded or not.  Really hoping they didn't!

This is an email they sent 

Good afternoon,

We hope this email finds you in good health.

We are writing to propose a resolution to the outstanding debt claim against you. As you are aware, there is an outstanding debt in the amount of £379.23.

In light of the circumstances and with a sincere desire to resolve this matter amicably and avoid protracted legal proceedings, we are willing to offer a significant reduction in the amount owed. Specifically, we are willing to accept a one-time payment of £189.62, which is 50% less than the original debt amount, as a full and final settlement of the debt.

If you agree to this proposal, please confirm your acceptance in writing. 

We want to emphasize our commitment to resolving this matter in a fair and equitable manner. We believe that this proposal is a reasonable and practical way to resolve this claim. We kindly request that you respond to this offer within 7 days of receiving this email. If we do not hear from you within this timeframe, we may have no choice but to use the Small Claims Mediation Service.

We believe that accepting this offer would be in the best interests of both parties, and we look forward to a prompt resolution of this matter. If you have any questions or concerns or wish to discuss this proposal further, please do not hesitate to get in touch.


Kind regards,

Huddle Utilities 
 

 

Note 

The original Debt was £214 🙄

Hi guys,

Just wondering if you resolved this matter?

Me and my partner racked up hundreds of debt in a student property 2020-2022 and then had to stick with huddle as our supplier when we moved out together as no other company were taking new customers during energy crisis. So now we have 2 massive bills to pay off. 

Not that I'd be able to understand any of the legal stuff you're talking about  but I'm just curious whether they did end up forcing your daughter to pay. They are a terrible company I hope you managed to sort it!

I would start to prepare in the meantime...its not mandatory for either party to serve a copy of the DQ on each other but normal etiquette.

As of 1pm they still have not paid, been told by the court to call tomorrow to be 100% certain. 

I suppose at this point if it's not paid its gets struck out.

Anything i need to do at this point?
