    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • 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,

      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 Everyone,

just registered, i'm hoping someone will beable to give me some advice ?

I have an account with Natwest, my account became overdrawn,

as i lost my job and as there were no wages going in i was being charged for being overdrawn. They took me to court to recover the money and i am now paying it back each month.

They have retained my cash card but my ac**** is still open ??

Recently i claimed for bank charges, they say they are sending an offer letter within the next few days, and this money will be paid back into my account, will this mean that they will keep my money to pay of my overdrawn account ??:(:confused:

Hi everyone,

Can anyone shed any light on my situation please ?

Basically, i have an account with Natwest, which has an overdraft limit

£1100. When i lost my job, and no wages were going in, my account became more overdrawn as unpaid items were being returned and i was being charged for this !

My account is now £1915 Over drawn !

Recently i sent letters to Natwest to refund my bankcharges and so far

they have said they are going to send an offer letter, nothing recived yet !? Bank charges estimated at £1123, as my account is overdrawn

i am having to pay money back each month, as i have a CCJ.

They are saying, any refund will automatically be paid into my account to pay of Over Draft, can they do this ?

I thought that if i was paying by arrangement, my charges refund would be a seperate issue and i should beabe to say how i want the money paid back ??

PLEASE HELP ????:confused:

I am in pretty much the same boat as you, but with a much higher debt to repay:(

 

They can not make you pay any refund you may/ may not receive direct into your Natwest account. However, it stands to reason that you use this money to pay off what is owed to them.

It's horrible, I know, believe me I dont want to either. I am at the last stages of my court claim but incase it went belly-up I opted to have the Citizens Advice Bureau deal with my debt problem. They have been corresponding with Natwest on my behalf, and on completing a financial statement I am currently only able to offer them £3.00 per month towards my overall debt. The CAB have advised me that if I do receive a settlement it should be used to pay off this debt. Otherwise, Natwest are well in their rights to demand a much more substancial offer if repayment. Failing this it could get nasty, by way of repossession orders etc.

I'd be happy to pay them £3.00 a month for the rest of my life 'cause of all the amount of stress caused, but if the debt is cleared, evrything should come up smelling of roses.

 

Hope this helps and has not scared you:)

Hi EJT.

 

If you received a cheque for the reclaimed charges, would you not seek to pay off your debts. By the bank applying it to your account, you will still be getting it but indirectly instead of directly.

Given the choice, personally, I would prefer to get rid of the debt.

If this has been useful to you, please click on the scales at bottom left of post. Thanks.

Hi,

I am just about to take natwest to court, as they have refused to pay me by cheque as my account is overdrawn.

They have actually paid my refund money into my account without my consent, as i havent yet signed and returned the offer letter form,

should i inform the courts of their actions ? :confused:

Please stick to one thread its much easier to answer your questions.

Have they settled in full?

If you have not started court action and they have settled in full I would accept their payment. A judge would not look favourably on a claimant who had recieved a full settlement yet continued to court to get the payment another way. You can always ask them to give you a cheque however they may refuse as you have an overdraft with them.

Well, as i already have an agreement with their solitcitors to pay of my OD monthly wont the court see that as a seperate issue ?

 

On what basis would you argue in court? They have settled in full you cant refuse it. You have to speak to Natwest about where they have paid the cash.

Ok you can argue with NatWest and quote the fact that you have an agreement with them to repay at a set amount each month. I would check the terms and conditions of this agreement just to be sure there are no clauses in it. I suggest you send them a letter explaining that you wish the refund to be issued by way of a cheque. Did you stipulate a cheque payment in your POC?

I do kind of sympathise with you, the banks are awkward right to the very end, HSBC offered to pay me straight into my account which would clear my overdraft, i wrote back to them and said no thanks i'll have a cheque please, i heard nothing from them for 2 weeks. When I phoned them up they said they had allready paid it into my account the week before, I was not happy ! !

 

I can see what you are trying to do and good luck if you can but i tend to think the court would say that its settled in full and thats the end of the matter.

 

Good luck anyway
