    • This must be part of the new tactic from Evri.  They know they are going to lose. They take it to the wire and then don't bother to turn up in order to save themselves costs and of course they don't give a damn about the cost to the British taxpayer and the extra court delays they cause. This is a nasty dishonest company – but rather in line with all of the parcel delivery industry which knows that their insurance requirements are unlawful. They know that their prohibited items are for the most part unfair terms. They know for the most part that a "safe place" is exactly what it means – are not left on somebody's doorstep in full view. They know that obtaining a signature means that they have to show the signature not simply claim that they received a signature. They are making huge profits especially from their unlawful and unenforceable insurance requirement. Although this is less valuable than the PPI scandal, in terms of the number of people who are affected nationwide, PPI pales into insignificance. I hope the paralegals working for Evri are proud of themselves and they tell their families what they have done during the day when they go home.
    • Your PCN does not comply with the Protection of freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9[2][a] (a)specify the vehicle, the relevant land on which it was parked and the period of parking to which the notice relates; The only time on the PCN is 17.14. That is only  a time for there to be a period there would have to be a start and and end time mentioned. of course they do show the ANPR arrival and departures  times but that is not the parking period and their times are on the photographs not on the PCN. They also failed to comply with S.9[2][f] as they omitted to say that they could only pursue the keeper if they complied with the Act. That means that they can only pursue the driver as the keeper cannot be held liable for the charge. As they do not know who was driving and Courts do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person they will struggle to win. Especially as so many people are able to legally drive your car and you haven't appealed giving them no indication therefore of who was driving. Small nitpicking point-the date of Infringement was 22/04/2024. They appear to be saying that they can charge an extra amount [up to £70 ] if they have to use a debt collector. You do not have a contract with a debt collector so they cannot add that cost. You paid for four hours so it can only be the 15 minutes they are complaining about. You are entitled to a ten minute minimum grace period at the end of the parking period which would be easier to explain if the car park had been bigger. However if you allow for two minutes to park and two minutes to leave that gives you one minute to account for. Things like being held on the way out by cars in front waiting to get on to Northgate or even your own car being held up trying to get on to Northgate at a busy time. then other considerations like having to stop to allow pedestrians to walk in front of you or being held up by another car doing a u turn in front of your car. you would have to check with the driver and see if they could account for an extra one minute things like a disabled passenger or having to strap in a child . I am not advocating lying since that could lead to serious problems [like jail time] but there can be an awful lot of minor things that can cause a hold up of a minute even the engine not starting straight away or another car being badly parked as examples. Sadly you cannot include the 5 minute Consideration period as both IPC and BPA fail to comply with the convention that you can include that time with the Grace period.

    • Hi all, I wanted to update you and thank you all for your help. I am delighted announce that after the case was struck out due to no response from Evri, judgement was issued after I submitted the forms and I was just about to take it to warrant.  today I received an email from the claims department requesting my bank details to make payment for my full award. The process has been long since the initial proceedings  in January i must say your help and guidance has been greatly appreciated.

    • 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.

Finally received my statements, today, (originally requested on 7th April).

 

I specifically asked for info regarding Manual Intervention. As this was not mentioned in the covering letter, should I assume that there was none, or should I chase them for an answer on paper ?

 

The worm has turned !

The more I read the FAQ the more confused I get.

My confusion is regarding interest.

I have my statements and have calculated charges. The initial letter asking for the repayment of these charges plus interest.

What I require

I calculate that you have taken £XXXXX plus £XXX which you have charged me in overdraft interest for the sum which you have taken. Total £XXXXX

This interest, as opposed to the 8%, do we add up ALL debit interest entries or perform some sort of calculation on the figures ?

As soon as I have this sorted out, I can send my letter requesting repayment.

Sounds as though it might be better to forget that and just go for the charges.

Better that, than be shown to have my figures wrong, in court.

I downloaded the spreadsheet (The one that calculates the debit interest.

 

Out of curiosity, I entered the debit interest figures into the spreadsheet.

 

The first dozen entries calculated the interest on the charges as a fraction of the total interest.

 

After that, the spreadsheet just took the whole amount as being due to the charges.

 

Is that right, or have I muxxed it up ?

 

Advice please...... I'm about to tell the bank how much I want them to refund and I'm unsure about the debit interest figures.

Letter before action goes in tomorrow.

 

Letter as follows.........

 

Barclays Bank PLC.,

Leicester,

LE87 2BB.

 

5th June 2006.

 

LETTER BEFORE ACTION.

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

ACCOUNT NUMBER: ########.

 

 

I am very disappointed that you have failed to respond to my letter of the 21st May 2006.

I now understand that the regime of 'fees' which you have been applying to my account in relation to direct debit refusals, exceeding overdraft limits and so forth are unlawful at Common Law, Statute and recent Consumer regulations.

 

I would draw your attention to the terms of the contract which you agreed to at the time that I opened my account. It is an implied term of that contract that you would conduct yourselves lawfully and in a manner which complies with UK law.

 

I am frankly shocked that you have operated my account in this way as I had always reposed confidence in your integrity and expertise as my fiduciary.

 

I calculate that you have taken £3390.00 plus £195.17 which you have charged me in overdraft interest for the sum which you have taken. Total £3585.17.

I am enlosing a copy of the schedule of the charges which I am claiming. I have already sent you a copy of this in my original letter of the 21st May 2006.

 

I require repayment in full of this money. If you do not comply fully within 14 days then I shall begin a claim against you for the full amount plus interest plus my costs and without further notice.

 

Furthermore, I shall submit a Consumer Credit Act 1974 complaint to the OFT upon the basis that you have failed to comply with the OFT's direction of 5 April 2006 and are therefore not a 'fit and proper person' to hold a consumer credit licence under the 1974 Act. If you do not understand what this means then seek advice from your legal department.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

 

The Rooster.

 

 

 

What do you reckon ? Can I add anything else ? Or is this satisfactory ?

I have just been searching the FAQs for the answer to this but without success.

 

I am enlosing a copy of the schedule of the charges which I am claiming.

 

I have included the details of the amount that I'm claiming within the text of the letter.

 

Should this also be on a seperate sheet and what should the format be.

 

Is the schedule of charges a printout of the spreadsheet ???

 

 

Letter before action due to go in, tomorrow...... Can anyone advise me ?

I am only at an early stage myself but I think the schedule of charges means a list or spreadsheet of the individual charges you are claiming. I sent them a spreadsheet with Charge details ie. PAID REFERRAL, Date and the amount ie £25

with a grand total at the bottom. Over six years this was about 138 entries.

 

Hope this helps

Letter received from Rose Frimet......

 

May I say how sorry I am..........we disagree with your view.......Terms & conditions.......Banking code......etc.,etc.,etc.

Despite my comments above........without any admissions.....I am willing to offer the sum of £1000 towards the total amount....gesture of goodwill....etc.

 

Now that £1000 would be extremely useful at this precise moment and would solve some pressing problems......But !......

 

I have always advised everyone to go for the lot, so for me to take the "gesture" would be selling everyone short.

 

So it's thanks, but no thanks. I want the lot !

To show my reasonable nature, I sent my own settlement proposal to Rose Frimet, on Monday morning. I offered to forego the interest for immediate settlement.

This was a calculated risk to show the courts that I had made every possible effort to get a settlement out of court.

 

Guess what!..........I got the answer I expected:D

 

Sod Off !

 

So now its, "Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho, it's off to court we go."

 

I offered them a potential saving (including 8% and costs) of £1250 for immediate settlement.

They refused...... Actually turned my offer down. If it had been me I would have had his hand off.

But then, what do I know about good financial practice?

:D :D :D
