    • Are you allowed to appeal if you plead guilty?   I know you appeal the sentence, but the criminal record formed from your guilt would surely remain?   I'm not sure if your able to appeal a crimianl record if you plead guilty are you?
    • DX: I did not pursue Link after I got the CCJ amended to monthly payments. Pretty sure the CCJ does not mention reviews, I do have the CCJ somewhere, I will have to look it up in storage. It is as mentioned on the thread you referenced  in your post #28. The Barclays loan was taken out in September 2004 for 60 months! Current Balance remaining approx £2K. On checking back my past correspondence with Barclaycard about this loan, there was a history of them ignoring my letters and offers to pay, and I even had problems in obtaining their bank account details for them to accept my payments! I have received strange correspondence from them too, one referring to insurance which I did not have. They seem very disorganised! Barclaycard told me to pay "Masterloan" a while back and I now receive regular statements and arrears notices from "Personal Loans from Barclaycard" clearly marked Masterloan, they changed the account reference number! I have never requested a CCA on this account. I advised them of my change of address last September, but they are still sending, until today, statements etc. to my old address! I have received 2 letters from Barclaycard Loan today though, not opened them yet!!
    • Yes, a few months ago. They wrote back saying there was no CCA and the debt was unenforcable. I then started gtting bombarded with threatening emails from their 'litigations team' which have been sent to spam. I've now recieved the letter before claim with the PAP form enclosed, but still no CCA or even a letter from them to say the debt is deemed enforcable. Thank you.
    • That's a shame but not unexpected.  I'm not sure about your assumed  questions because I haven't been to court but I'm not sure about not accepting a criminal record. It could be a language thing but it isn't your choice unfortunately.  HB
    • Have you previously requested the agreement by a CCA request ?

    • 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.

LBA sent..........including interest it's up to £9k, and I've got a spreadsheet running for costs at £9.25 an hour, which is up to 6 hours so far and I've barely started.

Told them in the LBA I would claim for a refund plus costs and interest. Because the claim is over the £5K standard threshold for the small claims track,then you can claim £9.25 an hour in the Fast Track. I read of another poster has just won 49 hours prep time at £9.25, so it's better than a poke in the eye.

 

Don't know if the same applies to the SC

Thanks for your message of support on my thread yesterday, I will indeed follow your case with much interest! Good Luck. I was wondering which spreadsheed you had used and if you could quickly explain how you go about claiming statutory interest rather than the 8% court interest. Bit unsure about this - any help at all would be very gratefully received.

Hi James,

 

This is the gospel according to the Vampiress with all the relevant spreadsheets

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=56&Itemid=36

 

I wasn't charged much interest with my charges despite the actual value of the charges, so that's why I've chosen to go down the 8% route, but the contractual route is more lucrative.

Quick update,

 

Senior Customer Resolution Manager says he's carried out a full investigation into my claim and he can assure me that those charges do not contravene Unfair terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations,1999.

 

you obviously take my claim so seriously that you send me a copy of the letter you send to everyone else, with the same reply.

 

Well my answer to you is.................. "N1 tomorrow"

Just spent my entire evening completing my N1, and after two mistakes on all three copies, I do believe I've cracked it! So a trip to Court tomorrow with a cheque for 250 big ones(refundable of course) and we're in business.

Hi marie,

 

Knowing the way Abbey operate then they'll wait until the last minute before acknowledging the claim to give them a few more days delay, so I don't really expect anythng on the 14th, but wouldn't be great if they did!!;)

I have just had the wait 4 weeks for a reply letter like you had back in January. Can I ask how you replied to it please? I do not want to wait and from what I have seen on this site I clearly should not wait.

Thanks
