    • Hi and thanks It looks like they ticked all the boxes to me but I'll try and upload the notice. I was wondering if a witness to late delivery might be considered proof - I'm assuming they posted it as normal but Royal Mail stuffed up delivery. If not then they're really saying it just has to be posted within 12 days of the incident, regardless of when it is received. Annoying! edit ok thanks Honeybee here's my 2nd (actually 3rd) attempt at anonymising, copying and uploading the notice! Sorry about the state of it - I sat on it while distracted by my dog 🙃 pcn front.pdf pcn back page.pdf
    • ROFL - dont get upset just because someone (quite a lot of someones) dont want smart meters - well unless you get paid for it .. in which case ...   I assume you haven't been with Octopus long enough to be on one of the very long fixed price tariffs they offered before the prices went bonkers .. and that you dont use your electricity in the evening/lunch time if you think the 'agile type tariffs are good value .. let alone worth installing a smart meter for - high price a good disincentive for an evening cuppa eh? Let alone all your computer/tv etc time in the peak price evening or lunch time. - and boy do those peak prices instantly hammer your bill when those Russian and middle eastern issues kick off.   I would only have considered a smart meter if solar panels had been an option for me - but roof is oriented completely the wrong way. Oh - and My opinion hasn't changed since the smart meter trials 40 years ago, because neither have the issues (well not enough) but I'm happy for you. Be happy for me.
    • Hi. I'm afraid I've had to hide your post with the pdf files to keep this anonymous for you. You've left the PCN reference number and your car reg showing. Could you edit that and repost please? HB    
    • Well naturally if you want to maintain your outrage, and retain something to bitch about, then arguing about the level of your fixed monthly DD is the way to go. You are of course perfectly free to ignore the easy solution.
    • His financial situation isn’t great, and the landlord has made lots of things up. The things he’s put isn’t true at all. My friend did tell the full truth with incoming and outgoing, I helped him fill in his form and he checked bills etc. to make sure it was right. His wage is ok, but not as good as the landlord thinks it is,  and he doesn’t have anything spare. How much are they likely to take from him? Should he send any reply?  the letter just says to take the court letter with him.

    • 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.

Link Financial phone a neighbour requesting my oh get in touch as a matter of urgency, sending silly postcards, threatening letters, ignoring SAR. Good luck to the boss though building his new house.

 

Also HFO, and a Mr DeSilva who works for them, for threatening my family, telling my OH that he would not like what HFO were capable of doing. Telling phoning at ungodly hours of the night, Turnbull Rutherfords, one in the same for the unscrupulous practices.

Hi Castaway,

 

If you go to the home page, and then press "Welcome to the Consumer Forum" it will then come up with "post new thread" just a bit down on the left hand side.

 

Put mackenzie hall in your thread title because then others dealing with them will pick up.

 

Have you made any payments on this account since 2002? This is very important because if you haven't it is statute barred anyway and you can tell them to shove it.

We are fed up of reading the stories about the Dcas who continually flout laws and principles and do not act responsibly.Following all your requests,you are invited to add your user name here together with the dca or firm of baliffs that you wish to complain about.Just add a few lines of your complaint.

Once we have a list we can then get something drafted to launch a bulk complaint to Consumer direct The FSO the others who are required to take up complaints.

 

I would like to cite 1st Credit, Reigate whose actions provoked me into complaining to the OFT on the day they(OFT) imposed conditions upon them (19/02/2009). Dodgy tactics too numerous to detail here.

 

I would like to cite Metropolitan Collection Services (MCS) acting for HSBC, who answered a s.77/78 CCA request with an insistance on signed application, and a quotation from the Data Protection Act which 'forbids them divulging data to an unidentifiable entity' (I have been dealing with them since March 2009.

 

I would like to site Apex Credit Management (formerly B C W Group) whose response to a s.77/78 CCA request was to return my letter and PO, and to close my account and pass it back to Barclaycard.

 

I would like to cite Barclays Bank plc, who, when asked in May 2009 why I did not receive any benefit from the PPI included in my loan, found themselves unable to answer my query within 8 weeks and 'hoped I would not find it necessary to complain to the FOS'. I did, and neither have so far given me a final response (Nov 2009).

 

All of these are the subject of threads that I have posted on this forum.

 

I am pleased to participate in this Mass Complaint.

Blair, Oliver & Scott - 5 phone calls a day until I moved, changed home and mobile numbers then wrote a letter telling them to shove it which amazingly they did, but then I hear from:

iQor - bought a debt from Intelligent finance that was in dispute and kept sending letters chasing it despite being advised they had breached regulations.

Mercers now chasing a credit card in dispute - requested signed agreement back in August - nothing since.

I think you'll find that the debt has only been passed on. Iqor, or wang -qor, are HBOS' next bottom feeder after hopeless in-house BO&S

 

Don't reply to them.

My OH's Barclaycard is in dispute and is with solicitors but Allied International, AIC, have chosen to start sending colourful postcards and using my cellphone to get hold of him! The solicitors have already sent BC a letter about this and how I need to have my cell phone free for our little boy with a life-threatening illness, but they continue to call. They do not veryify identity with me and are the rudest people I have ever spoken to. No more than a bunch of thugs. :mad:

Incidentally, they only use MY cellphone number now to try and contact OH, haven't I read somewhere how to record cellphone calls???:confused:

I do not believe I owe barclays any money . The debt is denied . The agreed the overdraft and then agreed to put in on loan in 2006 , Section 18 of the consumer credit act maintainas theat verbal agreemetns enters into a series of multiple agreement. The data acess report is full of errors and they tried to con me in to changing the product to get an new agreement , as they admit in the report that they would have great difficutly recovering their money if they did not . Tehy messed up my credit rating to keep control of the debt so I could not go elsewhere. I have made a goodwill gesture of of £2000 which has been refused , then looked as if they would agree I acalled the DC and got a load of agression. I have been very ill hence off line. I would like to meet someone at b who speaks sense to thrash this out for the sake of my health.

The easiest way to get them off your back is probably to use the template letter posted here.

 

It forces them to take notice or be taken to FOS and could result in them having to pay you for distress and inconvenience (FOS reported last month that it has happened).

 

IAMHARRASSED - You should send the template letter to Lloyds TSB AND Apex

DCA First credt solutions using automated message ringing service and I received a call at 10.20 p.m. They said this was impossible as they closed at 8 p.m. I do not use my answering machine. They stated that they could not help it if a message was left at 12 p.m. and the service kept ringing. Surely they have control of their calls. I persisted with the statement that they called me at 10.20 at night and they chose to terminate the conversation which must be recorded . I cannot get any sense out of these people. They must use a separate company to do the calling. Tehy also use a sperate comapny at the same address to threaten to call round .CFL not first credit solutions is annoucned in the message . Are they skimming around the rules of the officeof fair trading. I ask to speak to the person who left the message adn I was told that James left the messages and they dealt wit th accounts.

 

When I told them on previous conversation that I had been seriulsy ill. and was still recovering the answer was you are fit enought to work to are fit enought to deal with this. I cannot deal with the agression their client is BArclays and I am hoping to find an alternative solution. I beleive that if they knwe how they were being represented they may lose their contract.

Please add Newmans to this, they didn't respond to any of my letters requesting cca or correct follow up letters. They even turned up on my doorstep despite a letter revoking the right all of which were sent recorded delivery. Constant phone calls to my wife who told them time and time again that I would not be in during the day as working. All this while she was also adjusting to life with a newborn! Awful awful people. No respect for the law whatsoever. The debt was through Tesco's who have since sent the debt to Moorcroft despite the final letter ( from this site) informing my details to be removed!

Please add Rundle to the list, they harassed me as a vulnerable person and unlawfully charge me 5 times for each visit and charged levy fees when they had not levied and misrepresented their powers saying they were coming to remove my goods, without a walking possession. Info given in two separate letters from them gave different dates for certification of bailiff. Also, called at my business address (guest house, all goods tools of trade) to remove goods!

 

I am too stressed out to take them to Court, I am busy fighting a committal to prison for non-payment of the council tax to deal with the bailiff!! Therefore, whatever progress is made with this mass complaint would be a benefit!

 

Thank you to the originator/s of this idea!
