    • I understand what you mean. But consider that part of the problem, and the frustration of those trying to help, is the way that questions are asked without context and without straight facts. A lot of effort was wasted discussing as a consumer issue before it was mentioned that the property was BTL. I don't think we have your history with this property. Were you the freehold owner prior to this split? Did you buy the leasehold of one half? From a family member? How was that funded (earlier loan?). How long ago was it split? Have either of the leasehold halves changed hands since? I'm wondering if the split and the leashold/freehold arrangements were set up in a way that was OK when everyone was everyone was connected. But a way that makes the leasehold virtually unsaleable to an unrelated party.
    • quite honestly id email shiply CEO with that crime ref number and state you will be taking this to court, for the full sum of your losses, if it is not resolved ASAP. should that be necessary then i WILL be naming Shiply as the defendant. this can be avoided should the information upon whom the courier was and their current new company contact details, as the present is simply LONDON VIRTUAL OFFICES  is a company registered there and there's a bunch of other invisible companies so clearly just a mail address   
    • If it doesn’t sell easily : what they can get at an auction becomes fair market price, which may not realise what you are hoping.
    • Thank you. The receiver issue is a rabbit hole I don't think I'm going to enjoy going down. These people seem so protected. And I don't understand how or why?  Fair market value seems to be ever shifting and contentious.

    • 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.

hello everyone!

God this thread is inspiring!

yesterday was the 28th day after filed my claim for court and natwest had filed a defence. I received this today from cobbetts...:D

 

Am aware I don't necessarily need to respond to the CPR18, but in their defence they are requesting information from me eg I have to prove that the charges were in the nature of a penalty by proving "the clauses pursuant to which the charges were applied, and identify in each case the breach of contract". Do I have to respond now about this. or is this what will be discussed in court if it gets there?:confused:

 

If I don't respond to the CPR18, do I just fill in the AQ and wait for a response from court??

Thanks to anyone who can help me, my brain is going numb!! Why can't they just pay the money back?? other people I know have got their money back straightaway. i am worried now that mine is differnet and that is why they are defending it. It is just for charges for the last 6yrs... help!!

hi all,

 

Im just wondering if this has happened to anyone else.

 

I started my claim with natwest on 6/3/07 with 1st request for refund.

waited 21 days with no reply so sent LBA with 14day deadline.

14 days up today so phoned customer relations, a nice chap called chris told me that a note on my file said on the 20th march my claim had been validated with offer of £6091 letter to follow -21 days.

Its been five weeks since and i have no letter or offer.

Any one else had this situation?

will i be paid or are they just spinning me along?

 

Would appreciate any views>

Hi gooner90,

 

Yep they said the same to me when I called up wondering if they'd received my letters. Said they had two offers listed on my filenotes, and they would be sent out in the coming weeks. What I did, and what the general advice is - keep to your deadlines and don't be stalled by them saying they are going to send an offer.

 

Good luck!:D

Inspiring story for a newbie like me.

 

Just got to the defence stage and waiting for the AQ.

 

Still got a bit of road to tred but your story has made me realise that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

 

Many congrats and thank you for sharing your story.

 

Good luck and all the best

 

Jim.
