    • 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.

Hey sn00p, can't vouch for others but I've been busy being a new daddy :D

 

 

Thought I'd let you know how my experience of the FOS went. You might know some or all of this already, but thought I'd run it by you in case it came in handy.....

 

I'm currently dealing with them for a claim with Barclaycard. I had my acknowledgment letter from the FOS about a week after sending my complaint in. Then I heard nothing for a few weeks and all of a sudden out of the blue a letter arrives from Barclaycard acknowledging that I have got the FOS involved and offering me a refund. What I can piece together from other threads and my own experience is that the FOS will be getting in touch with the RBS around about now, asking for their side of the story in order for them to make a decision. This, I believe, revolves around them requesting information on their charging process. As soon as they get this request, the bank will them look to settle rather than disclose anything to the FOS.

 

I would imagine that RBS will be in contact soon, but it does come out of the blue - no contact from anyone to warn you. The only problem I am having now, is that BC only offered me my charges back (I claimed for Charges and CI) which represents around half my claim and I don't know what options I have available to me with regards to accepting or rejecting this offer.

 

I have sent an email to the FOS to ask them what options I have but they haven't responded so I'm going to ring them today.

 

If you want to keep tabs, my thread is here. Good luck with yours ;)

Hey T4FF!!

Good to hear from you & great news about the baby, Daddy-o, CONGRATULATIONS!! :D

Sound like you're experiencing just what I was worried about, i've included CI and interest on all the Provi loans we have had over the years that we wouldn't have otherwise needed, so charges of just over £9k but the full claim is worth over £24k!!

I'll keep an eye on yours so I know what to expect.

We'll be seeing posts from you at all sorts of random hours of the night now, will we?? LOL

SM:p

Well touch wood......no. She's settling in to a routine of 8 hours through the night :D :D :D. Musn't push my luck bragging about it. 9 weeks old now, I've been keeping my distance from the computer, rather than sending 4am posts. Slowly getting back in to things as I pick up my Barclaycard thread again.

 

Update on my thread since last post here, think you might be please with the response.
