    • Hi Sorry for uploading them wrong. Im not technical at all and self taught so bear with me as im trying my best. Thank you for all the info regarding the signs, this was my thoughts as well. Yes they have changed teh signs since this happened Ill ahve to have a look back through and see if when I took the pictures they were already the new ones or I have the old ones. I cant remember off hand. With regards to Europarks running the site now, Just to make you aware there is another small retail park just across the road and Im sure they are Europarks. The shops within that park are just Aldi and B & M. The site that we received the NTK has a few more shops, Home bargains, The food Warehouse, M & S food and a few others. I put these for identififcation purposes just in case it is the other site that you were looking at. The main entrance sign is on the bend on the left as you drive in the entrance so when you drive in from the right and turn in you can see it in front of you but if you drive in from the other way as we do then you dont see it unless you know its there and as you say you would have to stop to read it al anywayl. The main thing that always jumped out at us was FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in large letters. Please find the notice of hearing date attached and an offer letter I received from the vultures DCBLegal this morning,    notice of allocation group nexus.pdf vulture offer letter re group nexus.pdf
    • Good Afternoon Stu,  Many thanks for your reply. I will do as you suggest and email them for the exact terms. I shall have a look through the Tenancy Agreement too  myself  
    • You need a back up plan. If you believe that redundancy is very likely, start looking at other employment options.  Don't leave it until you have been made redundant before looking for new employment. I regularly speak to people who have been made redundant and about mental health. Those who have a positive plan, get into employment quickly following redundancy and manage to maintain their finances. Those who don't have a plan, decide to accept redundancy and a period of unemployment. They end up in a downward spiral, with redundancy money spent, debts accumulated, mental health decline and difficulty finding new employment.  
    • Interested observer here as I'm in a similar situation. People become conditioned into seeking and maintaining a perfect credit score/file, but if your situation is that you're unlikely to obtain further credit for the foreseeable future anyway due to your other outstanding debts, then tanking your credit file now won't make a difference other than you've took back control of your finances.
    • Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for their help in this matter. Since my last post I have received a reply from Plymouth Council Insurance Team concerning my wife’s accident (please see enclosed letter and photo of the offending Badminton post) which they deny any responsibility for the said accident. I feel that the Council is in breach of their statutory duties under the following acts: The Leisure Centre was negligent in its duty of care and therefore, in breach of the statutory duty owed under section 2 of the Occupiers’ Liability Act 1957. Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 (the Act) to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all their employees, and others who might be affected by its undertaking, e.g. members of the public visiting the Leisure Centre to use the facilities. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 that requires employers to assess risks (including slip and trip risks) and, where necessary, take action to address them. The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) require the risk to people’s health and safety from equipment that is used at a Leisure Centre be prevented or controlled. I would like some advice to see if my assumptions are correct and my approach to obtaining satisfactory outcome to this matter are accurate. Many thanks   PLM23000150 - Copy Correspondence.pdf post docx.docx

    • 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.

Well I sent these people a CCA request on thursday by recorded delivery!

 

and it looks like they've refused to sign for it and its getting returned to me! :mad:

 

here is my recorded delivery number if you wish to check it out on royal mails site dh603090514gb

 

They probably know now if they recieve a recorded delivery letter they know what it is and got wise to it so decided to not accept any!

 

I also sent a few others on the same day to different companies and some have been signed for and delivered and the others hav'nt yet but just telling me on royal mail site to come back later So It looks obvious to me that Blair Oliver and Scott have refused to accept it!

 

When I finally recieve it back I'll send it by normal post and see what happens, but I wont know one way or the other if They've recieved it or not!

 

anyone any suggestions?

 

Thanks all :)

Are you sure you sent it to the right address? Ring them up and confirm it

and if they then won't give you a reason for why they wouldn't accept it

your letter. Don't send it by ordinary mail, but complain to your local Trading Standards with the returned envelope.

The address you first used is the one registered at Companies House-so they

should have accepted it.

I have not seen the second address you have in Rosyth, but if you are going

to resend to anywhere other than the original address, then I think it better

that you send it to their registered address [and the one they used to notify

the ICO] is

The Mound,

Edinburgh,

EH! !YZ.

 

Though I would be inclined to send it back as it is and warn them that you

will not take a second return lightly.

I am fairly sure that it is Blair, Oliver & Scott who are registered as non-trading at Companies House....

Reeeally? That's very interesting considering I had a standing order set up with them... Hmm... Wonder about the legalities of that? I know that Mercers, Barclaycard's in-house DCA are registered as non-trading

Don't bother with recorded delivery either - waste of your money.

 

Go to any post office and get a free certicate of postage - courts accept this as evidence the letter was received within 2 working days.

I think the address held at Companies House, and the fact it says 'Non-Trading" is a reference to the fact they do not actually do business at that address, it is just where the Company was registered during it's formation i.e a plaque on the wall but not much else. That would explain why letters are returned.

 

You'll find "Non-Trading" attached to many Companies, particularly of this type, it seems to be common practice to separate the Admin from the actual business side of the company.

 

Not an expert but that's my theory. That's why you need to be very careful when you approach these Companies. All is not what it seems. Smoke and mirrors...... One branch closes, another mysteriously pops up, perhaps under a different name, but part of the same group........and it starts all over again.

 

I could be completely wrong, but.......

HOIST BY THEIR OWN PETARD.

 

Blimey it works....:-)

Its all a bit too complicated for me. Although it looks very fishy on the surface, I've no doubt they must have covered their bases on the legal side.

 

Things are never quite straightforward with anything DCA or related.

There is one way they have not covered themselves quite right

On their registration with the ICO they are using the registered office address of the Bank of Scotland, some one might say oh thats because they work for the Bank of Scotland BUT being as they are inside the Banks registered office they have got access to every customer the BOS has and not just the ones the BOS have passed on to them ....now that is a bit scary dont you think???

Blair Oliver & Scott (BoS) are just Bank of Scotland (BoS) Retail Collections in another guise. They also chase Sainsbury's Bank debts because Bank of Scotland has a 45% stake in Sainsbury's Bank. Sure, a separate company called Blair Oliver & Scott exists on paper but in reality it does nothing.

If it is registered as a company, separate from Bank of scotland then it must comply with Companies Act. Just because it is 100% owned by another company, changes nothing.

 

Mean Ugly Gorillas Ltd can trade under the name Pink Fluffy Bunny Slippers if they want, but not Pink Fluffy Bunny Slippers LTD.. This LTD makes all the difference
