    • Please see below for an extract from the letter more about my case.    You have been convicted of two matters of failing to give driver details linked to two speeding offences and been disqualified in your absence. You confirmed that you did not receive the court documentation and the first you knew about the cases was on 3/6/24. As you can make a statutory declaration it is possible that we will be able to persuade the police to accept pleas to either or both of the speeding offences as they were committed within a very short space of time and withdraw the two fail to give driver details offences as normally if you plead to one or other of the speeding or fail to give driver details the prosecution will withdraw the other related offence. If successful you would not face a totting ban. In respect of the speeding offences, it could be argued they were committed on one occasion due to the proximity of the time and location and we may be able to persuade the prosecution to drop one of the speeding offences. You are technically guilty of all the offences because you accept it was you driving when the speeding offences were committed and that you did not update your change of address with the leasing company when it was your responsibility. If the prosecution will not withdraw the two failures to give driver details offences, you will face a totting ban but will be able to put forward an exceptional hardship argument. This may or may not go ahead at the court hearing date, so we need to prepare for all eventualities. As a safeguard we have lodged the appeal and applied to suspend your ban pending appeal due to the time limit for being able to automatically appeal without getting leave of the Judge. The court have dealt with the matter very quickly and have actually listed your matter for an application to suspend the disqualification pending appeal on the above-mentioned date. We could actually use this date to make the statutory declaration in court having explained the situation to the magistrates and then see if the prosecution will agree to accept pleas to one or both of the speeding offences as a way of resolving the matter without the need for you to put forward an exceptional hardship argument. It is possible the case would need to be adjourned so that we can make those representations, or the court may want to go ahead and hear the exceptional hardship argument. The outcome of your case is always at the discretion of the Court.

    • 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.

What address should be used to request statements, do I send to my own branch or a central office, also should I include the fee at this stage £10?

Should the initial letter state anything other than a request for previous statements.

If I can get the ball rolling then I can have a really good look around the postings for the next step.

Thanks to anyone who replies.

Hi,

The address I've used so far has been Lloyds TSB Bank plc, BX1 1LT which is the main office that seem to moan at me but you can also use your branch address as well. Yes I'd include the £10 at this stage or you could tell them to take it out of your account

Good luck

Hi

I have recently received copy statements from LloydsTSB and they date back about 10 years. Should I include all charges for this period in my claim or just the last 6 years.

Thanks to anyone who replies.

Just the last six years, keithg.

 

One or more of the mods are looking at the possibility of claiming older charges, but for now we are limited to six years worth.

 

Good luck with your claim.

 

Onwards and upwards

Hi

I have received my bank statements from LoydsTSB and have spent a long time looking round the forum.

When doing the spread sheet of charges do I need to enter the 'days since offence' column and the Interest column as it seems Interest is not claimed until a possible court appearance.

Also which address is it best to send to, there seem to be several around.

Not very good on the paperwork side more of a hands on guy.

Thanks to anyone who replies.

Hi

Have received this from Sheffield Courts and my hearing will take place on 30th March (if it gets that far of course).

It is saying that 'each party shall deliver to every other party and to the court offices copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing. etc.

What documents are considered to be the ones that I intend to rely on and should send to the courts and to Lloyds TSB solicitors. Or in the normal course have they had these anyway?

Any info at this stage greatly appreciated

You need to prepare a trial bundle, read here for a good start:

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/33060-basic-court-bundle.html

 

It maybe helpful if you post the words of the entire order in case it contains anything unusual. Normally though this bundle is provided 14 days prior to the hearing, no harm in sending early as it may act as a catalyst for settlement.

If I have been helpful please click on my star and add a comment.
