    • I need to get a hamster. lol
    • Just a typo change that I'd make for the last line. Maybe also add something that says "I assume you will be fully aware that you cannot rely on a clause of a contract that you do not produce."
    • Hello, Firstly, and most importantly I am sorry for your loss. I would go back to the bank with the death certificate and ask them to step in. Remind them firmly but politely that there is no limit for DD claims   Please let us know how you get on.
    • My wife is the named person to his bank account with him having Dementia being his daughter (I say named person she still is but he recently passed away and the deputyship application has now being stopped by the solicitor as it's no longer needed) We've only just got the Death Certificate so the bank will be the next step informing them. She went to the bank and explained the situation but even being his named person the bank said she didn't have the power to stop DD without any legal documents (virgin money) was the bank. She could have copies of bank statements that was about it.
    • I see you said you tried to stop the DD but it seems that didn't work. May I please ask why that didn't work? You should be asking your bank to cancel the DD and I don't see why they would have objected, hopefully you can clarify this. I agree that you should be making a claim here against your bank and ask them for a DD refund. There is no timeframes for this.

    • 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.

...which we assume you have done :D

 

...have you had any reply since this then? I suppose within the next week you'll get a letter saying 'sorry to hear that, erm, I'll tell you what...if you promise not to tell anyone...and because we're such good sports (but not admitting any liability or wrong doing) then we'll give you, I don't know, how about £50 and a long letter?'

 

I'm not sure...but I am guessing...you'll have a nice reply to that letter when it turns up! :rolleyes:

 

Keep us up to date!

Hi peter- yes I posted the letter! and awaiting my "ha! ha! will £5 do?" letter any day now!!! Will let you know when i get it.

 

Hi Torigirl - good luck with your claim, I'm hoping I don't have to go to court, although part of me would love to, if only to hear the judge order them to open their books and explain exaxtly how much bank charges cost! But it would mean taking a day off work and that would just be a waste of a day!!

 

Let me know how your claim goes :)

Well it goes tomorrow - for some reason yesterday I thought it was Wednesday! So first thing in the morning thats going recorded!:)

Can't wait!

Have you heard anything yet? Got the standard, here's half as a good will gesture , cr*p yet?

I'm just sorting out the interest bit as I think I may of added it too soon, but if I'm asking for it anyway why can't I do it straight away?!!!:D

Ahh shame cause that means you are exactly 8 days behind me, waaaaayyyy to much to catch up he! he! :D

 

I haven't anything from them yet, not so much as a peep :mad: They've probably realised I'm just going to tell them to get lost anyway, so they wont bother!

 

About the interest- you can't (technically) claim it at this stage, cause all your claiming is unlawful charges, but you're going to end up claiming it anyway in 2 weeks, so I don't think it matters very much. But, hey good luck with it anyway, would be way cool if they just caved after the first letter and gave you interest as well!!

Tori, the reason you can't ask for it straightaway is because the 8% interest is only applicable at court stage. If they were to settle with you before court, you'll have asked them for something you're not entitled to...if you see what I mean. As it is, the likelihood of them settling before court is very slim, so you'll be ok. Otherwise I would recommend not to mention the 8% until you file the claim, as you don't want them thinking you don't know what you're doing... :)

Tori you are tooooooo slow to catch me, ha! ha! I'm filing online on Thrusday! :) and yes the waiting does kill you, every day I get up and check the post box!!

 

Peter- I can't believe you got an offer Humph :( but seeing as how you are declining it I guess that means you are no closer to winning!!! :D

 

I wonder why they haven't made me an offer yet, an really hoping that it isn't cause my case is the one they think they can win :(

 

Oh well onwards and upwards :)

Maybe it's because I'M BETTER THAN YOU ARE!!!

 

(I think give it 5 more days and we'll have dropped fully to the level of playground children! lol)

 

I imagine they have a day set aside, lets say each week, to send offer letters out to potential claimanrs, and as you were slightly ahead of me (pfhhh) you had already LBA'd them before they got to sending your out..???

It is done. I have filed via MCOL. I went on to look at how it needs to be done and realised that the 14th was a Wednesday, so I have filed the claim today.

 

I was soooooo nervous, I even spelt my name wrong- duh!!!! Don't worry I corrected it before I finished! It was actually a lot more simple than I thought it would be, just fill in a few details and boom done!

 

So as follow up to the MCOL I've written a letter to the court enclosing a copy of my charges and have also sent a copy of the letter to Barclays, with the charges enclosed, they've already had them but now they have another copy.

 

After much deliberation I decided to only claim for 6 years, as is technically allowed. I had about £200 outstanding from before 6 years, but don't want to run the risk of my claim being thrown out on a technicality, so I've adjusted it so that it is now comfortably under 6 years.

 

Guess its more waiting now :)
