    • where? reflection of a sign on the bonnet but no PCN yellow env... W3 SAR documents v2.pdf
    • They didn't turn up because they knew they would lose so they saved the cost of sending a brief saving them a couple of hundred pounds at least. But still a big relief for you now that it's all over . So congratulations plus you can enjoy your trip that much more. 
    • I will try again...................... Even at my age there is quite clearly a PCN envelope by the windscreen wipers on your car on some of the photos.  But as I said in the IPC letter, that is not the dispute. The dispute is that CPM sent you the second PCN on the 28 th day of the issue date of the first PCN. It should not have been sent until the day AFTER the original PCN was issued. Therefore they broke the Act, they breached the IPC Code of Conduct and their agreement with the DVLA. It is something that the IPC cannot ignore since to do so will bring the ICO down on them and the DVLA should ban CPM from getting data from them once they know if the ICO do nothing. The minimum I expect is that your PCN will be cancelled. But it is up to you. I have given you the details, you have copies of both PCNs sent to you on the sar  with all  the relevant dates. 
    • Apply for an HM Armed Forces Veteran Card   An HM Armed Forces Veteran Card is a way to prove that you served in the UK armed forces. The card can make it quicker and easier to apply for support as a veteran. It’s free to apply. You can currently only apply for a Veteran Card if you have a UK address. Veterans who do not have a UK address will be able to apply later this year. READ MORE HERE: Apply for an HM Armed Forces Veteran Card - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)  
    • The Private Parking Code of Parking has been postponed as the poor dears are frightened that thew will all go out of business once it becomes Law. We all wish but nothing could be further from the truth so doubtless most of them will have to change their ways if they don't want to be removed as approved parking companies. Thank you for still retaining and producing the original PCN which, no surprise, fails to comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. [It even states the vehicle "breeched" the terms  when it was the driver that allegedly breached the terms}. It fails to specify the Parking Period and whilst it does show the arrival and departure ANPR times on the photographs [that I cannot read] they do not include how long you actually parked nor was it specified on the Notice  [photos don't count]. So that means that you spent even less time parked though it would help had you not blocked out the dates and times, so good if you could please include them on your next  post. Pofa  asks the driver to pay the charge S( [2][b] which your PCN doesn't though they do ask the keeper to pay.and they have missed out theses words in parentheses S9[2][f] ii)  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; All of those errors mean that the cannot transfer the charge from the driver to the keeper. Only the driver is now responsible . What a rubbish Claim Form -doesn't even give the date of the event which it should.

    • 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.

Thank you sooooo much for your super clear modification.

I edit all the places you mentioned.

Is there any other place I need to modify?

Thanks dx, I just see your reply. Yeah I have changed the sentence you said.

I’m replying to your letter of [DATE].

I thank TfL for giving me the opportunity to explain my wrong and stupid actions. I have realised that my inexcusable actions were wrong, and I am deeply remorseful. I earnestly apologise for my wrong actions. After continuously self-criticising my wrong actions these days, I can’t go to sleep and repent every day. I promise that it was my first time of fare evasion and it will never happen again. I beg to pay all unpaid fare and any resultant admin fees immediately, if it is possible.

I understand that everyone use TfL service has responsibility to buy valid tickets every time. Without the tickets, TfL cannot operate normally and can’t provide service to the society. So I indeed feel very guilty about my offence.

I feel very guilty, and I know that I can’t blame anyone but myself. I feel that my depression and anxiety (please see the document and the medicine I’m using) are becoming very serious. I constantly trembling, crying, and at times struggling to breathe. The criminal record may result in my worse health condition.

In addition, I’m now a PhD student at XXX University, and I was a class teacher at last year (Please see the document). I really love this job and love to teach a lot of lovely students. I have been asked to continue being a class teacher this year and I got a verbal agreement. Moreover, I desire to be a teacher in university after I graduate. I dream of spreading knowledge and contributing to UK society.

Specially, I really hope that I could still talk to those lovely students. I just start my second year of my PhD programme, I do love my research, and desire to continue research after I graduate. A criminal conviction will no longer allow me to be a teacher in the future and I won’t be able to continue my loved research anymore. I desire to make contribution to our society using my research. I can’t control my thoughts about these, I’m extremely heartbroken.

I don’t have any history of criminality in the past, and I promise I will ensure that I do not repeat my actions again, and will ensure that I always have a valid ticket for travel. I evaded fare because I was with my girlfriend, I just felt that following her and evading paying my fare would be fun. I have paid price for my youthful ignorance. Now I deeply regret my offence and understand its significant negative impact on society. I have bought a monthly travel card and topped up my oyster card with a balance of £89 (please see the document) which will ensure that I have the correct ticket for travel in the future meaning that I will not fare evade ever again.

I know that I did wrong things and I desire an opportunity to make amends. I offer to immediately pay all unpaid fare and any resultant admin fees. I would please ask that you would please provide me a single opportunity to settle all outstanding sums owed outside of court without the need for legal proceedings which would have a detrimental impact on my teaching career, on the knowledge that I have an unblemished record up until now and have taken actions to ensure that I will have a valid ticket for future travel to ensure that these events never repeat themselves. 

I know that a prosecution would have a detrimental impact on my health and my career prospects as a teacher. I sincerely apologise again. I hope that I’ve explained myself clearly and provided sufficient evidence, If you need anything further from me to help you please let me know. Thank you once again for giving me the opportunity to explain my actions and I hope that you will be able to allow me to settle this matter outside of court on the knowledge that this has never happened before, and will never happen again, and that I have taken steps to ensure this.

 

Yours Faithfully,

Oh, yeah, the actions indeed repeat too many times. I have modified all the places as you typed, and attached the new letter. Thank you dx.

Do you have any other suggestions regarding the main body or the attached documents (I attached the medical record and proof of buying season ticket)? Btw, I removed some of my information and I didn't attch my contracts as it is full of my privacy.

I'm still wondering should I add "With the crimal conviction, I would not be able to be a teacher again" after "I dream of spreading knowledge and contributing to UK society using my research."?

Hi.

I personally wouldn't add that, I expect TfL already know what a criminal conviction does. You shouldn't treat them as if they're daft.

You seem to have lost the first sentence I suggested with the date of their letter. You can't start a letter with the 'I thank TfL sentence'. If you put a first sentence back, start with 'I am', not 'I'm'.

I also think the 'Please excuse my reply' sentence needs work. You aren't apologising for replying, it's about any mistakes in the reply.

Can you post up the current version of the letter please, to avoid confusion?

HB

Good morning, HB. Yes, I add the first sentence and 'Please excuse my reply' sentence.

The attachment is the newest letter. Can you please double check it, in case there is anything I midunderstand? Thanks a lot!

Yours Faithfully,

 

I've added a suggested start for your letter, as a formal letter is set out.

Instead of Please excuse my reply..' put 'Please excuse any mistakes in my letter as English is not my first language.'

I may be thinking of a different thread but did you say earlier that a monthly travel pass doesn't work for you?

At the end, if you're writing to a named person put Yours sincerely instead of Yours faithfully.

Does that help?

HB

Thanks, HB. They are very helpful.

The monthly travel pass may exceed my need a little bit, but I have bought it.

I don't see a name in TfL's verification letter. It is sent by IAP Team.

The second page of verification letter ask me to complete the section in BLOCK CAPITALS, it also requires signs. Should I also use block capital to type my information in email, and type my name in the sign area? I plan to draft my email in this way, do you think it works?

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

My case number is XXXXX

Last name:

First name:

Date of birth:

UK address:

Telephone number:

Email Address:

Date: 01/04/2024                                                     Signed:

I am replying to your letter of 25/03/2024.

I thank TfL for giving me the opportunity to explain my inexcusable and stupid actions.

Please excuse any mistakes in my letter as English is not my first language.

 

I upload the second page of the verification letter.

Just to be clear, are you sending their verification letter and your appeal letter by email together? You could fill in the paper form by hand in block caps and then scan it to use as an attachment to your appeal. When they say signed I think they mean your real signature, not a computer one.

Please don't write your appeal in block caps, if the TfL person is like me it will drive them mad long before they get to the end of it.

The heading of your appeal [if it isn't on their form] should just be Case number xxx without any other blurb. And in bold.

Thanks, HB. I plan to start the appeal letter with my information and also scan the second page of verification which I will fill by hand.

 

Can I aks whether I need to write anything in the below part of verification letter? It ask me whether I deny or accept. Should I write "I accept committing an offence, please see the email"?

Hi, everyone.

It has been 18 days since I sent the begging letter, and I still haven't received a response.

I've read some threads and found that OOC settlements are often responded to very quickly.

Does this mean it will be difficult for me to receive an OOC settlement?

We never know how long they will take to respond, it depends on how busy they are.

They also look through people's ticket history to see if everything is normal. If you haven't evaded fares before this won't be a problem for you but it takes time. It seems that train companies are doing this more and more.

Thanks HB. I never evaded fare before. 

Should I send any email to ask my case or beg again to show that I indeed know I’m wrong?

To be honest, I indeed find that I’m wrong and will never do such thing.
