    • Lolerz - I don't understand you.  Rebuked you?   No. I simply replied to your orange comments with legal facts as I know them.  I've already worked through the s42 and s146 issues - over the last 3-4y - and these issues are (mostly) resolved legally.  In terms of posting evidence.  Sure I can post some.  But my most recent questions have been a) how can I enforce a sale before trial?  And b) how can I make a complaint and/or a claim v receiver? (E.g. to which body do I complain?).  At the mo I'm asking for some helpful pointers on those specific questions??  I'm not asking for help with how to prove or present evidence. Fwiw - all evidence for trial has been disclosed (although additions are poss). The lender sent me like 10,000 emails and docs.  There's also 000s of emails, docs, photos, videos, recordings and texts that relate to freeholders/ me.   I read, filed and categorised everything for ease of future reference.  Witness statements and evidence were prepared for trial in the 42 and 146 matters. (now joined with current claim to save duplication).  I've lived the process before.  My current statement and linked evidence has taken like 6 months to draft/ write - to ensure I can succinctly prove my defence and counterclaim points.   Whether I can convince a judge at trial w/o lawyer / barrister is debatable 🙄   But I've prepared.  And continue to try better prepare - which is why I visit this site (and clinics).  This is NOT my business or expertise at all.  I'm just trying.  Not that anyone should ever have to justify why they need help if they ask politely! 
    • Thanks for the other info will also take a look at that.
    • It doesn't use the word reconstructed in the cover letter.  Although, I have just noticed on the cover letter they have asked me to complete a financial statement and offer a repayment within the next 10 days, or they will continue to follow court directions.  They sent a separate letter on the same day advising me they will be continuing with their claim ?  They have done the same for both claims.  Is it worth just doing that - doing the financial breakdown and offering a x amount.    
    • hahah except I can't locate the courier to frighten them with it hahaha   
    • Dx100uk according to the ICO office, who I spoke to at some length earlier today after getting the email from the court, Equita are the data controller if they have instructed the contracted EA. The ICO have noted the case, and stated very clearly that the court has the higher standing in terms of dealing with, and punishing either party if they fail to adhere to the district judges order and any action they take will not be criminal.    but they also stated very clearly that with what I’ve told them, and on the basis of accepting what I’ve told them as gospel (which it is with written confirmation from both the courts and the police) then there is some major red flags being raised on both sides with them blaming each other.    they’ve advised me to essentially keep my powder dry until there is a charging decision and an outcome from the seperate proceedings with the EAC2 complaint, and then come back to them with the case and they will be in a stronger position to act against Equita and the EA as there will be established facts and evidence that have already been laid before a court.

    • 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.

Hi

 

Is there anyone out there who knows an address for Halifax Visa in England or Wales?

Have gone through the usual steps, and am now about to issue a claim with MCOL.

The only address I have is Dunferrmline, Fife, where I've been sending all correspondance so far, but MCOL say there has to be a service address in England or Wales or you cannot use them for your claim.

 

I would be very grateful if anyone can help as I am at the stage where I have been offered £245 (half of my charges) and want to take them for the lot!!!

Ok all I can find is this number I would give them a ring and ask them about their address. If you dont get one you can complete the N1 and issue that instead.

Credit Cards - 08457 28 38 48

:?: Have just filled in N1 form. Do I send a copy to the Halifax as well???

 

Do I send the Court costs fee with the claim form, or do I wait until I

 

know it's actually going to Court??

 

If I send the Court cost fee now, then Halifax settle before it goes to court, do I still get the fee back?

 

Sorry if this seems a little naive!!

Hi Guys

 

Just an update.

 

Decided to phone Halifax on Monday before I sent off N1 forms. They said they were looking into it and I would hear something this week.

I was dubious, but decided to give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

Lo and behold, I received a letter today offering me all charges back. I just have to send back acceptance form now....

 

On the acceptance form it says that the money will be put into my visa account. Does anyone know if I can insist on a cheque???

 

Thanks for any advice

To the best of my knowledge you should have asked for a cheque in your prelim and LBA. You have nothing to lose by asking though. Will they owe you money after they have paid you back? If not, you will just have decreased your level of debt to Halifax as they are legally entitled to being paid first. This is still good isn't it? Less interest to them. As they have offered you FULL payment I believe you cannot now proceed with the N1 as I have read somewhere the courts would frown upon this.

Hi Hiddenangel,

 

No they were £20 late payment charges and £25 overlimit fee charges. From 27 October 04, they were charging me £25 late fee charges! What a cheek!

 

The last charge I had was in December 06 for £12 but they are refunding me £25 for that. This is because I put £25 on the schedule of charges as when I sent pre lim letter I knew I was being charged for that late payment, but I hadn't received my statement yet, so didn't know the charge had gone down to £12!

 

They obviously didn't add the charges up themselves or they would have noticed my mistake!! Never mind it's an extra £13 for me!!

Hi Sallysas

 

I didn't send off the N1 to the court, thought I would wait and see if I got a result this week, which I did!

 

I didn't know I had to state in my pre lim or LBA that I wanted a cheque, never mind it will lower my account balance,which is fab!

 

Unfortunately, they won't owe me any money as my claim was for £490 and my balance is about £1900.

 

I will ring and ask though, you never know.

Cal me the Devil's Advocate but on the Money Programme some months ago the experts opinion was that the true cost to banks was no more than £4.50. So you have done well. Say thanks very much, take the money - and run, so to speak. I don't know if this is necessary 'cos I havn't got there, but would it be an idea to refuse to sign whatever letter,saying you will not claim again. Are these late charges etc still being applied? How about applying for interest next time? See, I'm evil.:rolleyes:

 

Going after anyone else? Sally

Hi Sally

 

Thanks for the advice.

 

I haven't had any charges lately, as I am back on my feet and pay on time now. It was the late fee charges which made me incur over limit charges in the first place!

 

I'm going to claim charges back for my Halifax current account now, it's over 2 grand! Thought I'd do credit card first as it was a smaller claim to see how I got on. Now that mission is accomplished, it has given me the confidence to go for the big one!!

 

I have all statements as sent off SAR's for credit card and current account at the same time. Will be sending pre lim today, so fingers crossed. I will start a new thread for this claim, so keep an eye on what's happening and hopefully will get some good news soon, if Halifax play ball!

 

Watched a new Halifax ad on TV last night- no wonder they can afford to make new ads every few months- it's our money that's paying for them!
