    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above
    • In anticipation of lodging my court claim next Weds 1 May (14 days after advising P2G that was my deadline for them to settle my claim) I have completed my first draft POC as below: Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant has failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing a 8 secondhand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80 I look forward to your thoughts and comments guys! As ever, many thanks - G59    
    • Hmm, that's strange how they got my email then.  I assume the below is ok to send to DCBL, Nicky?  Hello, I am writing regarding our ongoing dispute and the upcoming court claim reference xxxxxxxx.

    • 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.

can they take the money from my husbands account to repay my one

 

No, they can't - even if he's named on a joint account with you. Have a look at this page, which should help explain:

banking: firms' right of 'set off'

 

can they close my account while money is still going into this account. this would cost me my benifit if they do that.

 

They could do - however they'd be acting unfairly & in a punitive & retaliatory manner (and that applies whether or not you're receiving benefits). If they do that, then you can make a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service - have a look at this thread too:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/general/63646-alliance-leicester-fined-fos.html

 

In any event, this is why we recommend you open a "parachute" account with another bank that's there to switch to if they do close your account. You wouldn't lose your benefits in that case, as you'd just notify whichever benefit agency that you've changed banks.

 

do i send a letter to A&L stateing that i am in a litigation with them and that a copy of this letter will be added to my court bundel.

 

Yes, you tell them that the account is subject to litigation, quote the case number, and that the amount should be classed as disputed - this should stop them taking recovery action. However, it's probably a lot less hassle to pay in £50 to shut them up - or even more if you have it, so that you don't incur further charges. Then, when all this is done, you can launch a new claim for the charges incurred since the last one of your existing claim.

 

Cheers

Michael

Lesley are you saying (presumablythey did not provide a breakdown ) that they have included the 8% S69 but not the court fee - or by coincidence are the court fee and 8% about the same - so it is actually the court fee and not the S69 8%??

 

I do not expect it adds up at all as we know they can not use a calculator!!

 

Or maybe they have deducted £4.50 from each charge and included the 8% and court fee. ?????

 

I am interested as it might help with my negotiations.

Hi Jansus.

Firstly i havent got a clue. how they have worked it out. all i do know is that my end total would of been about £200 more. so i was happy when i recieved that letter. as it was worth losing the court fees to get the big amount back.

 

good luck with your claim and i really hope you win

well today i have rang the court first. as asked for advice. i was told that my judgement was infront of the district judge. i then explained i had recieved a offer from wragge & co for the above amount. the court then adviced me not to stop the court hearing. but to tell the solicitors that once the money was in my account then i would ring and also write to the court to stop any further action.

 

I then rang wragge & co.. spoke to hina. the solicitor dealing with my claim. i told her i would except the offer made but was not stopping the court hearing until the money was in my account. where she explained it would be in my account within 48 hours. i also told her. that i had put in for a judgement. and told her that a copy of the letter was in the post for her files. she then asked me ( when is the court date ?) so i told her.. friday 13th july 07 at 2pm.

 

so all i can do now is sit and wait for the money to go into my account.

 

The i am going to hit them with the second claim. Immediately. as that is in the hundreds also.

 

will let you all know whe the settlement arrives.

 

keep up the good fight. and good luck to everyone.
