    • Last month was confirmed to be the hottest-ever May on record, in terms of global average temperatures, completing an entire calendar year of month-by-month records.  The average temperature last month was 1.52C above the pre-industrial average, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service, known as C3S. The average global temperature for the 12-month period to the end of May was 1.63C (2.9F) above the pre-industrial average

    • Hi, I just wanted to update the post and ask some further advice  I sent the CCA and CPR request on the 14th May, to date I have had no reply to the CCA but I received a load of paperwork from the CPR request a few days ago. I need to file the defence today and from the information I have read the following seems to be what is required.  I would be grateful if some one could confirm suitability. Many thanks   Claim The claim is for the sum of £255.69 due by the Defendant under an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974 for a PayPal account with an account reference of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)  The Defendant failed to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a Default Notice was served under s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 which has not been complied with. The debt was legally assigned to the claimant on 15-09-21, notice of which has been given to the defendant. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £0.00. The Claimant claims the sum of £255.69   Defence  The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have had financial dealings with PayPal  in the past but cannot recollect the account number referred to by the Claimant. 2. Paragraph 2 is denied. I am not aware of service of a Default Notice by the original creditor the Claimant refers to within its particulars of claim.  3. Paragraph 3 is noted. On the 17/5/2024 I requested information related to this claim by way of a Section 77 request, which was received and signed for by the claimant on 20/5/2024. As of today, the Claimant has failed to respond to this request, and therefore remains in default of the section 77 request and therefore unable to enforce any alleged agreement until its compliance. 4. Therefore it is denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, and the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) Show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement and: (b) Show the nature of the breach and evidence by way of a Default Notice Pursuant to s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 5. Paypal (Europe) S.A.R.L is out of the juristriction of English Courts. 6. As per Civil Procedure 16.5 it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 7. By reason of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed, or any relief.
    • Thanks @dx100ukI followed the advice given on here... then it went very quiet!  The company was creditfix I think then transferred to Knightsbridge (or the other way around) The scammer independent advisor was Roger Wallis-having checked his LinkedIn profile just this morning, it does look like he's still scamming vulnerable people... I know I was stupid for taking his advice, but i do wonder how many others he has done this to over a longer period of time (it came as a  massive shock to him when our IVA suddenly failed). Lowell have our current address (and phone numbers if the rejected calls over the past couple of days is anything to go by!) No point trying the SB because of the correspondence in 2019? Thanks

    • 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.

Equita and Newcastle PCN


Recommended Posts

Hi, Sorry I'm new so forgive any faux pas.

I had a £159 parking ticket to Newcastle City Council from when my mum was in hospital.

She passed away in Dec ( Equita didn't miss a beat when I told them :( )

I totally forgot I received this as I'm still all over the place with grief and have a daughter with autism who hasn't taken her grandma dying suddenly very well, my son who hasn't and I look after my dad also who is elderly, alongside studying and working full time- sorry sob story over, back to the story.

I rang the lovely Equita up and surprisingly got a lovely girl who set up a payment plan of £59 monthly for me starting 5th April......champion no bailiffs. WRONG!

I watched my account with bated breath and nothing came out, nothing was attempted and nothing set up.

I received a phone call from a bailiff this morning saying at 6am tomorrow morning I am getting a visit from the bailiff as I have broken the PP as they tried to collect it on the 3rd April and the bank rejected it????

no they didn't as my bank would have let me know.

After arguing for an age asking to speak to his manager, who is the bailiff apparently 🤨 

he said I have till 3pm to get the money together otherwise the heavys come round.

I don't have it,

I paid the £59 just now as I promised,

he won't work with me,

I have clinical depression

- yes I am a mess What can I do!!!

 

**** UPDATE*****

Now getting worried as just had ANOTHER text offf them

Are they acting as a DCA or have they gone for a CCJ? 

That would be interesting to know!

FK - He doesn't have PCN he's said that just fyi

 

also it cant be a CCJ because they're not CC baliffs (Debt too low for HCE) so it has to be as a DCA afaik or at least thats the assumption I'm under

Ok, deep breath 😮‍💨

 I have a car but not outside my property and its a lease through work anyway.

I can try and find the paperwork as this kid gave no information over the phone to me.

He did mumble something about a court appointed bailiff??

Btw Thank you 😊

Sorry - I started putting together the post - got a phone call and then submitted it. 

Well then the OP should stop stressing :)

 

@fedup1724

- We need to understand what is where. 

 

So - Are you 100% sure this has not been to court yet for any form of enforcement action? 

They need to get a CCJ and 28 days to pass before they can consider it :) 

 

If they are acting as a Debt Collection Agency in its current form before going to court then - They will say anything to get you to pay. 

What boundaries are we working to here fedup?

Dont worry this is anonymous. - Ive scrubbed the ref number you put in you SMS earlier so no one can see it :) 

 

Probably plenty of people who have been getting hit from Parking Firms at hospital. 

 

 

THESTRAYFERRET.CO.UK

More people have complained of unfair parking fines at Harrogate hospital under its new car park arrangement.

 

(Just a point that you will likely be anonymous still :) )

I think we need to get our ducks in a row as we're getting conflicting information.

1. Is this a Council Penalty Charge Notice or a Private Penalty Charge Notice?

You'll get the first for parking on a road incorrectly, you'll get the latter for parking on private land in breach of some "terms and conditions" (hospital is private land)

2. Who are equita acting on behalf of? Your correspondence must say somewhere.

Lets try and clear all this up and then we can help.

We could do with some help from you.

Topic title amended.

you ignored and it went all the way thru court and you got a default CCJ?

IGNORE THE BAILIFF TOTALLY

no more panicking

its a civic CCJ, there is NO right of forced entry anyway.

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

that would make sense.

so forget the mr baywatch one for the minute ( make a new thread for it fedup!)

we need to concentrate on the newcastle council PCN.

council PCN's were decriminalised years ago

councils can go straight to bailiffs

but there is still no right of forced entry.

2 things will wrap this up quickly

1 did you receive the original PCN from the council?

2. have you received a notice of enforcement from the bailiffs?

ans those 2 please

There are 3 issues

Council Toll Charge 16/11/2023 - Recharged by Arnold Clark 07/12/2023.

Council Penalty Charge Notice 03/01/2024 - This is likely the issue in this thread

Minster Baywatch NTH 21/12/2023 - This needs a separate thread once we've dealt with this one
