    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • 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.

:mad: Hi ya

 

I sent my bundle to Abbey last week. Two weeks before the court date.

 

I hand delivered the bundle to the court, in a well presented folder.

 

Since then, I have experienced an amazing turn of events.

 

The court sent me a letter, not stamped on the envelope or dated.

 

The judge asked for a hearing for my n244 application, even though I ticked part c for no hearing and paid £ 35

 

The letter stated that I should attend the n244 application & amended n1 forms hearing on the day I was delivering my bundle to the court.

 

I ONYL RECEIVED THE LETTER TODAY.

I rushed to the court to explain, that nobody at the court had informed me that while I was handing them my court bundle last week, that there were any hearings for me to attend on that day. I EVEN ASKED THEM!

 

I explained all this to the counter staff, who said they could not find the judge's diary, and would give him my explanation tomorrow, hopefully a decision NOT to strike my claim out

 

I asked to see the hearing list for last week when they SUPPOSEDLY had listed me on the hearing date. Not available. The security guard remembered me, and said that cctv could prove that I was at the court that day, delivering my court bundle.

 

I am FREAKED OUT!!!

Id write to the court informing them and cc abbey.

 

Id leave it a day or two though, courts have a backlog and it may turn up a day or two late, probably not mind,

 

You might like to ask the courts to strike out abbeys defence based upon their failure to submit their bundle. YOu should also prepare a shcedule of your costs and apply for these when you win based on their unreasonable behaviour too.

 

JMHO

Hi, I wouldn't think you'll get struck out, but to make absolutely sure, I wouldn't rely on those "p*** taking civil servants" to remember to explain it to the Judge or to explain it in the way that you would want. I would send a crawly letter to the Judge explaining the circumstances. I know it's not your fault, but just play Mr Humble, sorry for any inconvenience etc etc. And I would check with the Court whether they sent a copy of the N244 hearing letter to Abbey, and if they did (as I suspect), I would copy your crawly Judge letter to Abbey. Regards, Mad Nick

a similar thing happened to me, but it was 'apparently' recieved but not actioned on the day, so as Glenn says, give it a day or two to turn up.

 

Secondly, as Glenn says, prepare a schedual of costs, ie postage stationary, photocopying etc and have it to hand for when Abbey make you your offer. I know its small claims and as such cannot be awarded costs, but I negotiated with Abbey for my time, 20 hours @£9.25/hour (I can never remember the exact wording but the £9.25 is the figure set down by the courts), and all told told them I thought a figure of £220 was fair, but as a gesture of goodwill I would accept £200. This conversation was had with Inga Kirkman (and she was ok with me to be fair), and she agreed to pay the extra £200 by cheque, along with the full amount of my claim. I waited until the funds cleared and then informed the court that the claim was settled.

 

Getting close now, well done and best of luck over the closing act.

I am attending my hearing tomorrow.

 

Abbey still have not defended their claim to me in writing not supplied me with their court defence bundle.

 

The court have changed the judge to sit at my hearing

 

The court clerk have told me that I do not need to have the Abbey defence struck out due to non compliance or orders to submit defence bundle.

 

I will have the supposed N244 hearing at the same time as my full hearing

 

I am very confused

Hi

Did you write to the court informing them that the bundle had not been submitted ? (I assume they were directed to?)

 

Whats the N244 hearing ? ( I assume this is just you asking for the defence to be struck out for non compliance with directions rather than submitting of request for an order ?)

 

What directions did you receive from the court and what did you do to comply with them ?

 

Theres a fair bit of info missing from your thread which without it makes it difficult to clear up your confusion.

 

 

Its a full hearing, you have complied with Directions, Abbey have not.

 

You should get settlement pretty soon but you need to make sure you have all the information to hand regarding striking out the defence.

 

It is unlikely they will discuss the charges issue in court but they may if they attend try nd get more time to put their bundle in. So I think you need to concentrate on that.

 

You may also need to argue your case for costs so make sure you read up on that in the CPR's.

I saw a completely different judge

 

A deputy district judge sat at the hearing. Very nice

 

Abbey did not show. I sat at the hearing with the judge.

 

They sent a letter to the court (not to me) that they settled the case with me.

 

I argued that the settlement offer was rejected by me, (letters attached)within the bundle presented to the judge.

 

I argued my case that I delivered to the court, my bundle as ordered.

I claimed full costs for my court applications.

 

The judge wrote out that they intend to write to Abbey to have them pay the remainder of costs, and to remove all defaults entries against me on the credit register from all data controllers.

 

 

They handed me my bundle back

.

Was this a judgement, or is he going to request that they comply?

 

I'm not sure whether is congratulations time or not, but it certainly sounds positive, and hopefully this will be the end of the matter

 

Well done

 

Louis
