      Lost items sent through Parcel2Go and EVRi

      By Madmart58 · Posted

      Thank you very much for your letter in regard to the above mentioned shipment.  Due to the high volume of parcels coursing through the courier network each day, undergoing continuous processing and handling, certain packages may experience delays or even can get lost in the course of this journey. Please note that due to the time that has passed, this shipment has been declared as lost.  I have today processed the claim and made offers to the value of £75 as a goodwill gesture without prejudice. I do acknowledge that you have mentioned in your letter that the value was higher, however, you did not take out any protection to that amount. The protection for this shipment was £20 and we will not be increasing our goodwill offer any further.    Please log into your account online in order to accept our offer. Once accepted, our accounts department will process the claim accordingly. The claim payment will be processed and received within 7 working days.                                  In addition, a refund of the carriage fee will be processed as a separate payment and will be received within 3 working days.  If I can further assist, please feel free to contact me.   I have also just noticed that yesterday afternoon they sent me an email stating that "after my request" they have refunded the cost of shipping. I did not request the refund so will mention that in my letter as well.

      IDRWW letter and email received this week

      By Angryman1404 · Posted

      Hi I had to leave Dubai back in 2011, during the financial crisis. And only now have I received a letter from IDRWW. Is this anything to worry about about as I have 2 years left until it’s been 15 years(statute barred in Dubai). Worried as just got a mortgage 2 years ago. Could they force me in to bankruptcy? Red lots of different threads on here. And unsure what true and what isn’t.

      Lowell/Overdales Claimform - old Cap1 Debt

      By London1971 · Posted

      Often with the Likes of Lowells/ Overdales that 'proof' doesn't stand up to scrutiny.   Think about it like a game of poker, they want to intimidate you into folding and giving up as soon as possible, and just get you to pay up and roll over, that is their business model, make you think your cards are rubbish. What they don't expect, and their business isn't set up for it, is for a defendant to find this place and to learn that they have an amazing set of cards to play. Overdales don't have an infinite number of lawyers, paralegals etc, and the time / money to spend on expensive court cases, that they are highly likely to lose, hence how hard they will try to get you to roll over.  Even to the extent of faking documents, which they need to do because the debts that they purchased were so cheap, in the first place. Nevertheless it works in most cases, most people chicken out, when they are so close to winning, and a holding defence is like slowly showing Overdales your first card, and a marker of intention that this could get tricky for them. In fact it may be,  although by no means guaranteed that it won't even go any further than that.  Even if it does, what they send you back will almost certainly have more holes than Swiss Cheese, and if with the help you receive here, you can identify those weaknesses and get the whole thing tossed in the bin.

    • Big Motoring World Enfield /Blackhorse - done over on car - @BigMotoringWrld

      ATJ posted a topic in Vehicle retailers and manufacturers,

      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

    • Post in Suing a parcel delivery company when you don't have a direct contract with them – third-party rights Copy of judgment available

      BankFodder posted a post in a topic,

      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.

I know of a Tesco that has car park that is never more than half full, This must surely be about generating income, and not solving a non-existant parking problem.

 

As noted earlier in the thread, NOT for Tesco. The income is whatever the PPC can make out of it. All Tesco gets is 'parking control' at no cost to them.

You'll get nowhere with harassment, they are chasing a debt which they believe is owed. They will continue t do so until you pay up - that's they way it works, and there is no point losing sleep over it as there is no 'appeal'.

 

What I would check out, is that she is no longer the RK of the vehicle, and the date this change was noted. Not that it amounts to much, but when requesting details from the DVLA, the requestor must provide the date of the incident, and if this is after the letter from the DVLA stating she is no longer the RK, it is the DVLA who are breaching the DPA by providing misleading information.

 

As for the calls, they are collecting an invoice that is not relevant, if you've said the vehicle was not yours on the date, just keep stating this and hang up. You have to requirement to negotiate or explain. Be polite, but firm.

Before you all start calling me all your stupid names why don't one or two of you do something totally different and pay your contravention? Instead of looking for loopholes and claiming harassment and quoting every act possible just PAY!! You park on private land what gives you the right to park in 2 bays or in a disabled bay without a permit or a parent and child bay when you have no kids? You do it because there are some do gooders on site's like this that say you can. Will these same people back you in court??? Will they pay your court fees???? Doubt it very much. And I know what the next come back will be....... But these people don't take you to court because they're a [problem]. Wait and see people because the people who speak so loudly on here will soon be going into hibernation and you'll wish that you listened to Singe!! A final word would be, when you go into a car park there are generally some white lines, park between them then no tickets get administered, it really is that simple. Good luck to you all!!:rolleyes:

Firstly, if one was to pay for the "contravention" it would be lining the pockets of a 3rd party and not the landowner itself.

 

Secondly Mr PPC. these people do support those who are taken to court

 

Thirdly, your final word, most forum users do park between the white lines, its just some PPCs decide that the bay was actually not for parking in. If perhaps there was an appeals system which was independant and actaully worked then I'm sure people on here wouldn't tell innocent drivers to simply ignore you!!!

..not forgetting londoncass, the good old "you can only park for 90 minutes" even though you parked perfectly then spent 2 hours spending loads of money in the shop, then couldn't get served through the tills coz they didn't have enough staff on. The same shop that apparently authorised the [problematic] to issue a scamvoice to you for all this hastle in their shop.

Crem, why if you know you are authorised to park for 90 mins would you spend 2 hours in a shop, surely that's 120 mins. Would you go to a P&D car park and buy a ticket for 90 mins and spend 120 mins shopping?

As for Londoncass, I'm not Mr PPC, I work for a debt collections company who deal with Parking tickets and I hear 101 different excuses every day. There is an appeal procedure and a lot of appeals win. I personally deal with appeals and if I believe the parking ticket is issued when it shouldn't be then I will have it cancelled. But excuses like, I'm not the driver, my permit fell under the seat, trolleys were blowing around the car park etc etc do not wash. You enter the car park voluntarily so abide by it's rules, if you don't then pay the monies owed and stop bleeting on site's like this. It really is pathetic that you can abuse a free car park and then complain when you get a ticket. :eek:

If I am browsing a store like B&Q or World of Leather where they are hoping I will spend 100s if not 1000s of pounds in their store, I'll take as long as I like and feel free to use their car park for free for as long as it takes.

 

Likewise, if I am in McDonalds, I'll take whatever time I feel like to eat and enjoy a meal without worrying about removing my car from their car park.

There is an appeal procedure

no there is not

 

and a lot of appeals win.

Really? Where?

By what authority will you cancel it? You say you are the DCA, the scamvoice was issued by your client, only they can cancel it therefore.

Singe80, I can only reply regarding the appeals comment you have made as the overstaying, wrongly parking and hidden permit comments do not apply to me. I was quite simply parked in a car park in a bay which had faded markings and was ticketed for "causing an obstruction". Despite asking for the opinion of a police officer who returned an opinion "that i was not causing obstruction" and writing three appeals letters to UKPC stating my points and providing proof the so called "appeal" was turned down. I have seeked legal advice on the matter with every solicitor, advisor and police officer stating the same thing - that I have a watertight case. Quite simply an offence was not committed yet UKPC continue to pester for payment. Their appeals and payment process is absolutely flawed.

I understand that you may be finding it tough now, maybe a few too many people have been using this forum to successfully fight a parking company but it does not require you to market your services on a forum.

 

I would love for you to review my case and give your opinion, maybe you could then pass it one desk to the right and have the UKPC "appeals manager" review my case again!!

I came into this matter unbias, simply in receipt of what I believe was a wrongly issued ticket. After personally experiencing the UKPC "process" I totally agree with crem on this matter. Put simply singe80 you are bias. If you had experienced this process from the other side you would not be stating what you state now.

Something not right here. Debt collectors collect debts; they do not listen to appeals from motorists; that is what the PPC's claim to do, and when you refuse to pay the alledged debt is passed to a debt collector.

 

Note the debt collector is powerless to collect PPC money unless a court order is obtained.

 

So it is sound to advice to ignore all correspondence from a PPC. When they pass the debt to a debt collector; inform them that the debt is in dispute, at which point they are required to hand it back to the PPC.

 

As you can see, debt collectors are ineffective, powerless and have no purpose in this world other than to scare and intimidate vulnerable people.

 

No wonder Singe80 gets upset with forums such as this.
