    • Good morning all, No further communication with P2G so now submitting my small claims action. Would be grateful for any feedback on my description of claim before I submit later. The defendant in this case is Parcel2Go Limited The claimant sent a parcel using Parcel2Go Ltd as a broker and Evri as the shipper containing two handmade bespoke wedding trays to a customer with tracking number P2Gxxxxxxxx. The parcel was never delivered although the defendant stated that three attempts had been made to deliver the parcel.  The claimants customer waited in for four days to receive the delivery but no delivery was attempted. There was no communication with the claimants customer.  Despite many web chats and emails the parcel was not delivered and on the Parcel2Go website it stated that the customer had refused delivery. This was not true as no delivery had been attempted.  I was informed that the parcel was being returned to me but after waiting three weeks was informed by Evri that the parcel was lost. I was offered compensation of £20 + shipping fee which I refused and after sending Parcel2Go a Letter of claim this was increased to £75 which I also refused. It is clear that the defendant is responsible for the loss of the parcel as they did not act with reasonable care and skill when handling the claimants parcel, contrary to section 49 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015. The claimant therefore seeks £370 in respect to the value of goods plus court costs. I thought it might be better to use the CRA rather than the Supply of Goods and Services Act as we are sole traders - is this correct?
    • No new development, I'm afraid. The last update I received was a letter from the court, advising that the case had been transferred to Croydon County Court.

    • Hi, I am aware there’s been few threads about this already but just wanted to confirm information on my case. I was with Village gym last year(2023) on initial 6 month usual contract they do, I lost my job and due to that I couldn’t afford to pay for gym nor I had any motivation to go to gym at that time so they sent me arc phone message in September 2023 that I owed them £140 so I paid them back on instalments in 2 months time.  Then I started receiving new years deals in December 2023 and I decided to give them a call but they never mentioned anything about 6 month contract or anything, only that it would be monthly rolling contract and I paid them for 2 months and then I realised both months they charged me £59 instead of £38 they offered me on the phone when I mentioned that I am still student, even though before I was paying £43 a month in mid 2023. I spoke to gym entrance lady and she said I should give a call to gym on the phone number so I did and whoever answered said they’ll pass my info to manager and he will give me a call back in 24 hours, of course no one called me back so I called again and they said same thing. And of course once again no one got in touch with me so I got tired of them charging me more than they should and decided to cancel my direct debit and stopped going there as I got new job with rotation shifts which is not good for me as I cannot visit gym after I finish at 10pm every second week.  And now in April I received arc message saying this :  Also they have my old flat address where I used to live. What is the  best thing to do for me please? 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.

  • dx100uk changed the title to overdales claim i have a CCJ from 12/17

reviews??

they are solicitors for the largest debt collector in the uk lowells. rarely do lowells bluff on existing CCJ's

ok a debt collector has zero legal powers and are not bailiffs

but

they buy old debts

and fleece people out of money or try too.

 

people can ignore all they like but if they ever sent  letter of claim or  the debtor gets a court claimform , they like you or i can take people to court, and if that person has moved and never updated anyone.. = backdoor ccj guaranteed.

 

i suspect your son has had mail elsewhere and has ignored it all even the court claim and an eventual court judgement in 2017.

they are only doing this as the ccj is coming upto 6yrs old

that sort of makes it a bit more difficult to enforce it (i.e back to court to ask the judge to send bailiff whom are all but powerless too on consumer credit related CCJ's) no forced entry allowed.

 

i would suspect your address is the original one he took the debt out at in 2012 as you seem to know a bit about it.

 

not saying do anything nor pay it, but it would be better to know its real

  • dx100uk changed the title to overdales claim son has a CCJ from 12/17

nothing. i suspect.

so he has bought this round to you not knowing what to do?

did he know about the CCJ existence before now?

 

overdales can quite legally write to any linked address on his credit file chasing payment of this ccj.

 

in 2012 he was living with you when he took this credit out i suspect, then he must have moved to another address where everything went too and then he moved again to the address they've just written too?

.

that doesnt hurt him, they are just phishing trying to finding him

Trying to get info out of you is like pulling teeth.

There is mention in the letter above something bout n agreement to pay £100 per month but I don't know if that was court or just him agreeing to pay.

 

he lives quite far from me so little contact with him.

 

Should I advise him to ignore, thanks?

Well he has to date....

 

They've had 6yrs to enforce it and they haven't 

 

Why do you keep putting up silly trust pilot crap 

Totally irrelevant.

that looks like what the judge ordered to be paid £PCM 

it says payments were not maintained,  this could imply he had at somepoint since 2017 paid some payments?

ive asked before, but it this the 1st he has ever heard about the existence of thisCCJ? why cant he come up on the forum himself rather than playing chinesse whispers through you?

He told me he wanted to pay the debt up to get  car on finance so he rang them back then, would they go back to court with the ccj on it from 5 yers go, thanks very much?

Paying off a CCJ doesn't make it go away.

 

You either pay within the time ordered by the court - 30 days - or you're stuck with it for six years.

We could do with some help from you.

no good paying it off -  does not remove the CCJ or make it less painful, he wont get credit whilst it shows.

it's there, paid or not, paying or not, it will drop off his file on its 6th birthday. which is very soon.

 

on of the only things they can do is get bailiffs involved but to be honest that doesn't really change anything, this is a consumer credit CCJ, that means NO RIGHT OF FORCE ENTRY, and in practical terms you simply ignore the bailiff totally.

 

quite honestly i'd go radio silent on them, he has managed it for almost 6yrs , only gotta string them out ill the new year and he can get all the credit he likes then as the CCJ entry will drop off his file.

 

there are a few other things they could try, but all of those involve a court , and any court would write to him telling him what is going on, then we can deal IFIF IF these happen

they don't.

read CAREFULLY what i am advising you.

but they ARE removed from public record (credit files) after 6yrs.

 

and once a CCJ passes 6yrs, it's extremely rare for a court to allow enforcement. which is where they would have to go to try and enforce one.

 

 

they have had almost 6yrs and done nowt, he got a phishing letter, and sadly rang them (doesn't really change anything), but that's the idea of these letters, to reel people in.
