    • Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.  
    • This is simply a scam site.  It's been shown to be a scam in the national press and on national TV. Please fill in the the forum sticky and upload the invoice you've received. In fact what you have is an invoice, not a fine, a private company doesn't have the power to issue fines.  
    • Moved to the Private Parking forum.
    • Good afternoon, I am writing because I am very frustrated. I received a parking fine from MET Parking Services Ltd , ( Southgate park Stansted CM24 1PY) . We stopped for a quick meal in Mcdonalds and were there fir around 30 mins. We always do this after flights and never received a parking fine before.  Reason: The vehicle left in Southgate car park without payment made for parking and the occupants southgate premises. they took some pictures of us leaving the car. i did not try and appeal it yet as I came across many forums that this is a scam and I should leave it. But I keep getting threatening letters.  Incident happened : 23/10/2023 I did contact Mcdonalds and they said this:  Joylyn (McDonald’s Customer Services) 5 Apr 2024, 12:05 BST Dear Laura, Thank you for contacting McDonald’s Customer Services. I’m sorry to hear that you have received a Parking Charge Notice following your visit to our Stansted restaurant.   We've introduced parking restrictions at some of our restaurants to make sure there are always parking spaces available for customers.   We appreciate that some visits such as birthday parties or large group visits might take longer and the parking restrictions aren't intended to stop this. If you think your stay will exceed the stated maximum parking time then please speak to a manager in advance.   Your number plate is scanned by our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system when you enter our car park, and then again when you leave. If you have overstayed the maximum time allowed, you will not be notified straight away- a Parking Charge Notice will be sent to you via the post.   If you feel that a Parking Charge Notice has been issued in error, please contact our approved contractors who issued the charge in order to appeal the charge. Unfortunately McDonald's are unable to revoke parking tickets- the outcome of the appeal is final and cannot be overturned by McDonald’s.   Many thanks for taking the time to contact McDonald’s Customer Services.   Can someone please help me out and suggest what I should do next?  Thank you

    • 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,

I registered this morning after reading very successful outcomes for Evri lost packages and was hoping to do the same.

 

I was hoping to do the letter of claim first but I reside in NI. The parcel was confirmed as lost in transit in England.

 

Am I still able to follow the procedures outlined on this site?

 

 Thanks

Thanks for clarifying!

I’ve one more question to keep this moving

- I’ve read quite a few similar scenarios on this site and in many previous claims, others were advised to write letter of complaint first, then letter of claim. In others, it was said the letter of complaint is a waste of time.

 

Should my next be a step letter of complaint or letter of claim?

 

I had emailed CEO office and have since had confirmation that my £586 eBay sale has been lost despite tracking showing out for delivery on 3 different occasions!

 

 Thanks again!.. so glad I came across this site it is giving me the hope I needed!

  • dx100uk changed the title to Evri - lost Ebay Parcel - Are procedures the same for NI residents?

Hi, 

I've been reading a number of similar threads of missing parcels and have found they've really helped with my anxiety over this! However, I’d really appreciate some advice…..

 

I sold a set of bicycle wheels for £580 and used EVRI through Packlink for the shipping.

Unfortunately they went missing.

 

I contacted CEO of EVRI as I thought this may initiate a more thorough investigation into the missing parcel but unfortunately this wasn't the case!

I received an email from EVRI confirming it is lost.

As expected, they have advised me to go to Packlink to pursue a claim. 


Packlink requested screenshots showing proof of sale, PayPal payments etc. more than 10 days have passed but I have not received any offer of compensation. 

 

I have seen the advice from the many threads that this is not the route to go but instead write a letter of claim to EVRI.

 

Attached is the sequence of information from tracking.

 

Packlink had requested me to pay extra for postage due to oversize .. I did that immediately it was asked for on 8th July.

Unfortunately, I did not purchase extra insurance but on reading many other threads, I hope this should not jeopardize my case.

 

I have since refunded the buyer the full amount.

 

I would be really grateful for any feedback regarding the next steps- letter of claim or complaint?

 

Many thanks again for giving me hope

Hi

Many thanks for this advice dx100uk... I've taken it onboard and drafted a letter.

I now have 2 further things I would appreciate advice on from the forum

1. I have attached the said letter of complaint- is it ok? If so, I will send today by signed for post 

2. I received an email this morning from packlink offering £25 plus £6.95 as compensation. As I wish to proceed down a legal route for full reimbursement, do I reject this?

Many thanks

Hi again

I sent the letter of complaint to Evri, as recommended. As expected, I received no response.

Having read similar threads, I want to now pursue my full amount owed and have drafted a letter of claim. I would really appreciate if it could be checked before I send off. 

Many thanks

Hi

This afternoon, I sent off the letter of claim by special delivery and also sent copy by email.

I hope the content is OK.

However, I’m not going to hold out hope of a satisfactory response from them.

So am I correct to start preparing the money claim online for 15 calendar days time?
Thanks again

So, I’ve just found out ..it’s a no!

looks like it’s going to have to be small claims court. I hope I can navigate my way through this process.

From reading loads of threads, I thought I had completely familiarised myself with the process.. now I’m feeling very anxious .. the positive stories had really helped me have confidence.

Does anyone know how or if I can go through mediation in NI
Thanks

Hi

I’ve just been reading the small claims information booklet from the link you provided…and was curious when I saw the following paragraph - particularly the part I’ve indicated in bold.

 

Respondents who reside outside Northern Ireland
It is possible for a small claim to be sent to a respondent outside Northern Ireland. The service procedures and method of enforcement of any decree awarded are unique to each country. You may wish to contact the court office or Civil Processing Centre for more information. You should be aware that issuing a small claim against someone who resides outside Northern Ireland can add delay, cost and complexity to the application. You may want to consider using a process in the country where the respondent resides to try to claim your money back.
In the paragraph above, ‘outside Northern Ireland’ means England, Scotland and Wales.


Does this mean I can follow the same procedure as others on this site… MCOL?

Thanks

Hi,

I have found out I can do MCOL and am working on it at the moment.

In meantime I had no response by post from Evri but received the following response by email.

Ive seen other threads and believe this is standard .. so will I just go ahead with MCOL?

Would it be ok to post here first for checking before sending? 
Thanks 

 

My name is Taslim, and I work in the Executive Team alongside my colleague, and I have been asked to respond to your complaint in their absence.

 

In reference to your parcel: 

******

 

As already advised there is nothing further we can do to help you.

 

As you purchased the shipping label for this parcel via Pack link. While your parcel was sent using the Evri network, Packlink are regarded as the carrier in this situation as they provided you with the shipping label.

 

This means that any claims for parcels which have become lost, damaged, or delivered late will need to go directly to them so they can discuss the appropriate next steps with you.

 

They can only refund you the amount you had agreed on and up to the level of cover selected when you purchased the label from them.

 

I have added a useful link below to assist you: 

Packlink Ref: ******

Packlink Help Centre: https://support.packlink.com/hc/en-gb

Unfortunately, Evri can only explore the possibility of compensation with the party who contracted us with the safe delivery of your parcel

Hi 

Thank you!

Would you mind checking if this is OK for the particulars of the claim - the last section of the MCOL form? 
Thanks in advance 
 

Particulars of claim

Parcel contents: Campagnolo Bora One Wheelset 

Value: £586

Delivery fee: £6.95 + £8.40 (extra charge)

Compensation received (from Packlink): £25.00 + £6.95 postage refund 

Total claim: £569.40 

 

The claimant used the defendant's courier service to deliver an item, value of £586 to a UK address. Reference number ********

 

The defendant breached the contract by losing the item in their possession and refuses to compensate the claimant.

 

The defendant's own negligence breaches the meaning of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 where the service has clearly not been provided with reasonable skill and care.

 

The claimant seeks £569.40 plus interest pursuant to section 69 County Courts act.
