    • I'd get back to them tomorrow, and explain the circumstances, that you have a wedding reception, and just appeal to their better nature. Hopefully they will be able to move sooner rather than later, especially if you go in in person and speak to them, and show them the issue.
    • The 3 pieces of mortar that fell on the same day, at the same time, were approx. 25-30cm long and weighed around ½-1 kilo each from a roof that is above the 2nd floor; they were by no means tiny pieces of mortar but large chunks falling from a rather great height. I believe the size and weight is enough to cause serious injury and if it falls on your head, I assume it could potentially be lethal if unlucky, but we don't wish to put that theory to test... We can't in good conscience let a contractor install a patio and a gazebo as it is in the exact spot where the mortar fell, nor do I think anyone would be willing to take the chance. Looking at the roof, there are multiple other remaining pieces from the same 'line' or 'row' of mortar that can potentially fall. The mortar is right underneath the slate tiles on the neighbour's roof and I don't know whether the tiles are also (becoming) lose due to the loss of the mortar. I was trying to upload a photo but it seems it's not allowed. The first contractor to work in our garden in preparation for the patio and gazebo is scheduled to start on 10th June, that leaves the neighbour 5 workdays to sort their roof which is unlikely, so it seems we will have to postpone our patio contractor without knowing when they can come back. We have already had extensive work done in the garden in preparation for the wedding reception and it will become very costly for us if we have to move the wedding reception to a venue (if we can even get one at this short notice) rather than have it at home which was our dream.
    • Is this sufficiant for a letter of claim  ? Letter Of Claim       Reference: Techzone Mobile Phones Samsung A71 Mobile Phone £140 Purchase date 29. 5. 24     I the claimant purchased a 2nd hand Samsung A71 mobile from Techzone Mobile Phone unit 10 of the indoor market at the Potteries shopping centre. Initially the phone worked well until I used the camera and found debris in the camera lens spoiling pictures making it not fit for purpose. I contacted the seller who offered a replacement which I initially accepted but later rejected and wanted a refund in full which the seller refused saying they Do Not give refund is unlawful and goes against the Consumer rights act 2015. Therefore I intend to issue proceedings against you in a county court without further notice unless you reimburse me the above amount in Full within 7 days from the date of this Letter     ------------------------------------------    I think its best if i hand him the letter as posting it might not get through so can claim expenses traveling up there ?   or would it be best to just post and get 'Signed for'  ?   Should i also put in the letter of claim interest added or leave that till the Particulars letter ?

    • Sorry to shatter your leftie dreams 🤣😂🤣😂     Donald Trump gets a SIX-POINT bump in approval after being found guilty on 34 counts according to snap Daily Mail poll: 'I think it was a waste of taxpayer money' WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK Teflon Don rides again, according to an exclusive poll for DailyMail.com which found that the guilty verdict in Manhattan... James Johnson, who conducted the poll, said Trump might be waking up as convicted felon but he was winning over the voters who matter.   Our snap poll of a representative sample of likely voters shows that for most Americans the trial has not changed their deep-set views of Trump,' he said.  'But amongst those who are open to changing their mind, people feel more positive by a margin of 6 points. That is outside of the margin of the error of the poll and we are saying that is significant. 'It extends to Independent voters too. Look at the explanations and it is clear why: people feel it was a politically motivated trial and view Trump as a "fighter" against what they see as injustice.

    • 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.

An auspicious start, hopefully! Nice one.

 

Lot's of branch staff not in management are very helpful, I mean they work for the pirates and I imagine that they are having a chuckle seeing the employers getting stung (well I would if I was them). Hence the helpfulness and the 'Oh don't bother about the tenner wink wink' attitude. lol

Don't be surpised to see a historic statement charge on your bank account. What the branch say and what the bosses do are two different things.....

 

Might be being cynical but whose fault is that?

those calculations don't seem to add up.

 

Have you just added all your interest amounts up, or have you got that from the spreadsheet?

 

Your chargeable interest must be a small percentage of your charge amount - it could never be larger.

Now as the claim won't go to court, so won't have the chance to add on the 8% Im better off using the compound interest rather than the statutory? JUst a bit hesitant as I rarely see posts not statutory

I would think if you claimed contractual interest it most definitely WILL go to court!

There's a thread somewhere I read in last couple days where the bank (not RBS tho I think) was defending contractual interest by saying an individual couldn't claim under the principles of mutuality and reciprocity..

 

I'm sorry but I'll be b*****d if I can find it now....I'm having that sort of week.

 

I'll keep looking

No not both.

 

You need to either decide to go up the normal route (ie stat 8%), most likely be settled early and receive no more than your charges, or go for compound, and more than likely go to court.

 

Think I'm confused now too......

As T4FF says, you either claim the stat 8% which is awarded by the Judge at his discretion (but it seems they always do) AFTER judgement, which means if the bank settles before that (it seems THEY always do too) THEN YOU WON'T GET ANY INTEREST.

 

If you claim contractual, this gets added to the claim BEFORE you go to court and is more likely to get the bank defending...certainly attempting strikeout, so it will then come down to the strength of your argument.....

Thks Hydra - was getting confused as the Prelim includes an addition of interest.

 

The interest referred to in the prelim is overdraft interest. I.e. the interest you get charged on a monthly basis for being overdrawn. Your able to claim back the percentage of interest that was accrued against your bank charges after your interest free overdraft is taken off.

 

For example......

 

OD £300

Int Free OD £100

Bank Charges £50

(Debit) Interest £10

 

Chargeable OD = £300-£100 = £200

Percentage of OD made up of charges = £50/£200 = 25%

Percentage of charges reclaimable = 25% of £10 = £2.50

And this is a MINEFIELD, I didn't even consider it...too complicated for my uncomplicated northern brain

Even with £1300 overdraft interest didn't want to stray into that minefield either !

 

I think, personally, if my unauthorised overdraft interest was over the £1k level I might consider claiming.

 

But are you sure thats right? £1.3k in unauthorised overdraft interest? Sounds a lot unless you already have a high authorised limit and still exceeded that often...

 

If it's £1.3k TOTAL overdraft interest you might find the unauthorised element isn't as high as you think - and as my esteemed colleague T4FF points out - the template spreadsheets can help with this.
