    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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.

Ok, I think I am pretty clear about the new strategy..... I have got my AQ and deadline to submit on the 31st March. Now I understand I should submit this last minute as close as possible to the 31st, got that. Also that I attach this draft order for directions to my AQ, etc....

 

Is my understanding correct: if the judge agrees with the order he/she will set a deadline as to when to get all the information together on both sides according to the order, this deadline is usually within c.14 days after I submit my AQ?

 

I'm a bit worried as I am off on a 3 week holiday on the 11th April. Bearing in mind I will submit my AQ on the 31st March, I am worried the judge will agree the draft order and than ask me to submit the draft order info whilst I am away. There is a section in the N149 form that asks you whether there is a date that I cannot go to court and I have added my holiday dates. The big question however is: by attaching the draft order am I in effect going to force myself to submit the draft order info whilst I am away? Obviously this cannot be done cos I wont be here so should I bother with the draft order for directions? I need to know general timescales on what happens after AQ is submitted.

 

Also, i'm not 100% sure on this but is the info in the draft order also the court bundle or are they two separate stages?

Hi I've got an AQ for my lloyds claim which has to be sent in by 3 April. Have just spent a couple of hours reading all the posts in this thread. Have I missed the part which says you should wait until the last minute to send in AQ? Why? I was planning to send mine off on Monday. Should I wait?

As far as I am aware there is no advantage by waiting until the last minute. You can file it when you want. I usually file mine pretty soon after I received them, just so that I don't forget about it.

Yeah as Max said it does'nt really matter. The only possible advantage there could be is that they might settle before you pay out another £100 - this is unlikely though as most banks will wait untill you've handed in the AQ before they even think about settling. In fact handing it in early could perhaps even prompt them into settling, who knows?

Well I have read that filing it last minute gives the banks an opportunity to settle before it is submitted. I plan to write a letter to DG (HSBC solicitors) between now and deadline and basically nudge them into giving me an offer as they will have to pay further costs once I file my AQ, extra £100 cos mine is over £1500.

 

Anybody willing to answer my earlier post about timescales after Draft Order for Directions is sent......

Hello

 

How long does it normally take for the judge to agree directions, if indeed they do.

 

My AQ deadline was the 4th of March, and I duly submitted with the draft directions etc. I not heard anything from them yet, but i know its with the District Judge, as the Civil Courts have told me so. I just don't want to mess up here.

Hmmm... It would be a bit of a gamble. Most courts take at least 3 or 4 weeks after the AQ return date to issue directions, then you'd have 14 days from then to provide your bundle as per a), b), c) and d) of the order. Going on that you'd be ok, but it is possible that the order could get issued in a week after the AQ date I suppose, in which case you'd be in trouble.

 

Unless there is someone who'll be at home and can do it for you if need be, I would'nt take the risk if I were you. Just use the standard AQ guide notes.

 

Which court is it? You should also bear in mind that the court may issue these directions on their own initiative whether you request them or not - they are becoming quite widespread now and many courts have started to routinely order them in all charges claims.

Could be anything from 2 - 6 weeks on average, or even much longer - it depends on the court. If the file has gone up to the judge then I should think you'll hear fairly soon.

Thanks Gary, that is a bit of a worry :-( I see the reasoning behind the Draft Order so the banks are also forced to disclose their charges in more detail etc.... so I figure I want to include it in my AQ.

 

My court is in Lambeth, just round the corner from me actually.

 

I will get my draft order info together before I leave and get somebody to open my post while I am away and hold onto the stuff. If it is due when I am on holiday I'll just get them to hand in my stuff for me. I assume there isn't further paperwork/forms to fill in with the Draft Order stuff once the judge asks for it??? It's just a case of getting the stuff together with cover letter and handing it over to the court right?

 

Like you said if some are ordering this without people even asking for it anyway I better just be prepared for it.

 

I have decided to write to DG (HSBC) anyway before the AQ deadline to nudge them into giving me an offer, so I am hoping they do.

No more forms, you'll just need this if/when the judge orders the directions as per the draft;

 

a) Your schedule;

 

b) Your statements showing the charges. Alternatively the list of charges which the bank provided under your S.A.R - (Subject Access Request);

 

c) A statement of evidence.

 

d) All the statutues and case law on which your claim relies. Ie, UTCCR's, UCTA's, SOGA, case law, etc. You'll find all of this in the Basic Court Bundle

 

Just put it all together in a bundle with a short covering letter at the front marked clearly with your name -v- HSBC and your claim number, then just get someone to hand it in to the court within the specified timescale. Remember also that a bundle has to go to D&G as well as the court.

My thought was that it may be worth including a note with your AQ that you will be away with the dates and ask the court to note that your suggested draft incorporates this. If the judge wishes to alter the suggested order could he also allow a little extra time for you to put together anything that is further required. Does anyone with more knowledge of the court system know if this is possible.

Does anyone have any advice for claims progressing with estimated portions?

 

Due to not finding this site early enough, I only made a Freedom of Info SAR this weekend, im expecting it to take 40 days to arrive.

However I need to submit my AQ this week, which will include three of the six years estimated. Many sites (like the BBC and MSE) were advising this was fine, but I apreciate its not ideal.

 

Should I submit the old request for disclosure rather than this new one to give me time?

Shall I tick the 'stay of one month' box on the AQ to hopefully give me time?

Can I submit a new/amended (non estimated) shedule, claim figure and interest when the SAR arrives?

 

Thanks alot.

Its Barclays at Clerkenwell and ShoreditchCC BTW.
