The DQ is the directions questionnaire. The "bar" prevents you from applying for judgement. So this means that a defence is on its way to you and you should receive it very soon. When you do receive it then please will you post up in PDF format. It will be very interesting to see what they say. -

So Virgin filed their acknowledgment of service on Apr 1 and their fortnight is up to submit a defence. I have heard absolutely nothing from them apart from the tumbleweeds rolling down the streets, a coyote or two howling on the lonely plains and one copy of their acknowledgment of service which arrived on about April 5. Having checked Moneyclaim this evening is it now stating 'a bar was put in place for Virgin Media 15 April, Virgin Media filed a defence on 15 April, DQ sent to Virgin Media 15 April'. Do I just wait and see if their defence turns up as I have no idea what it will be. And what are a DQ and a 'bar put in place'? -

Well just because it's in the terms and conditions doesn't mean that it is enforceable and frankly it sounds unfair without referring to you. I'd like to see what my site team colleague @slick132 has to say about it but my instinct is to write them a letter and tell them that for the avoidance of doubt you do not admit you have any contact with them and you have no intention of paying anything and if they want, you will see them in court and you will challenge the fairness of the term that they are apparently relying upon. Let's see what my site team colleague says

Post in Court Claim Against Hermes - item sent via Packlink was lost/tampered with **WON at mediation full amount **
jj58 posted a post in a topic,
Hi @BankFodder
Sorry for only updating you now, but after your guidance with submitting the claim it was pretty straight forward and I didn't want to unnecessarily waste your time. Especially with this guide you wrote here, so many thanks for that
So I issued the claim on day 15 and they requested more time to respond.
They took until the last day to respond and denied the claim, unsurprisingly saying my contract was with Packlink and not with them.
I opted for mediation, and it played out very similarly to other people's experiences.
In the first call I outlined my case, and I referred to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 as the reason to why I do in fact have a contract with them.
In the second call the mediator came back with an offer of the full amount of the phone and postage £146.93, but not the court costs. I said I was not willing to accept this and the mediator came across as a bit irritated that I would not accept this and said I should be flexible. I insisted that the law was on my side and I was willing to take them to court. The mediator went back to Hermes with what I said.
In the third call the mediator said that they would offer the full amount. However, he said that Hermes still thought that I should have taken the case against Packlink instead, and that they would try to recover the court costs themselves from Packlink.
To be fair to them, if Packlink wasn't based in Spain I would've made the claim against them instead. But since they are overseas and the law lets me take action against Hermes directly, it's the best way of trying to recover the money.
So this is a great win. Thank you so much for your help and all of the resources available on this site. It has helped me so much especially as someone who does not know anything about making money claims.
Many thanks, stay safe and have a good Christmas!
