    • Here's a suggested modified version for consideration by the team. (Not sure whether it still gives too much away?)   RE: PCN 4xxxxx Dear ALLIANCE PARKING Litigation Dept, Thank you for your dubious Letter Of Claim (dated 29th April 2024) of £100 for just 2 minutes of overstay. The family rolled around on the floor in amazement of the idea you actually think they’d accept this nonsense, let alone being confused over the extra unlawful £70 you added. Shall we raise the related VAT issue with HMRC, or perhaps the custodians of the unicorn grain silos? Apart from the serious GDPR breach you’ve made with the DVLA and your complete failure in identifying the driver, we’re dumbfounded that the PCN is still not compliant with the PoFA (2012 Schedule 4 Under Section 9.2.f) even after 12 years of pathetic trial and error. We also doubt a judge would be very impressed at your bone idleness and lack of due diligence regarding parking periods. Especially with no consideration of section 13 in your own trade association's code of practice and the topological nature of the Cornish landscape versus a traditional multi-storey. And don’t even get us started on the invisible signage during the ultra busy bank holiday carnage, that is otherwise known as the random parking chaos in the several unmarked, unmanaged over-spill fields, or indeed the tedious “frustration of contract” attempting to get a data connection to Justpark.  We suggest your clients drop this extreme foolishness or get an absolute hammering in court. We are more than ready to raise the above issues and more, with a fair minded judge, who will most likely laugh your clients out in less time than it takes to capture a couple of useless ANPR photos. If you insist on continuing this stupid, money grabbing quest, after having all of the above pointed out, we will of course show this letter to the Judge and request “an unreasonable costs order” under CPR 27.14.2.g and put it toward future taxis to Harlyn Bay instead.  We all look forward to your clients' deafening silence. Signed, "Spot". (Vehicle Keeper's pet Dalmation).
    • Paying DCA's one penny, never mind £50 per month is a mugs game, they have really been milking him as a cash cow   See where received a claim form is underlined in your post, you need to click, on that and read carefully, then answer the questions, then copy and paste into a post on this thread Forget the CAB ,  their advice is sometimes weird. Is it worth defending? Lowell brought these debts for 10 p in the pound , years ago, because they are flawed. Think about it! if it was such an easy win, Capital one could have taken it to court and crushed him.  It could be an invalid agreement, default notice, or many other things. In a nutshell , yes, and we can help you.

    • 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.

Totally - they are making such a bit HOOHAAA out of me being in the red - but they have taken nearly £4500 of my money over the last 6 years - do you see me phoning them every hour and INSISTING that the monies be paid straigtaway????

 

Next time I speak to them, I might just ask them to confirm their:-

 

1. Company Registration Number

2. Address

3. Telephone number

4. The second and last digit of their security number (if they ask about this, I will have to take them through the whole security questionaire, and set up their own unique security number for when they call)

5. And of course if they can confirm their three last direct debits they have paid ......

 

In a perfect world, whould that not be sooooooooooooo funny .....?

 

Good luck!

help!

 

progress report.. saturday, i received a letter from the Halifax stating that they were going to defend the claim, as expected.

 

BUT.. also received a letter from the NATWEST denying/refusing my application for the very basic bank account.

 

so, does anyone have any other ideas/suggestions for a bank that may accept my sorry ass for a customer?

 

also - i'm wondering is my credit rating now officially the worst it can be?! i applied to the Natwest on the advice of you good good people on this site, thinking it would be the best bet. what a loser!

I dont know the answer I am afraid , my credit score is pretty low ..but we managed to get an account with the natwest.

 

Firstly I dont know about the bank that will take you on ........but I know that HSBC wont we tried them we finaly had to go for the Natwest ......but just under the wifes name.

 

If you have a partner then you could also try that ...........I did read somewhere on here about another bank that would let just about anyone have an account though not 100% sure which one something like the coop bank maybe.

 

You need to get the next one right though because everytime you apply to them they put it on your credit reference ..so it wont look good keep applying to banks and them seeing you have applied to some others.....thats what showed up on my credit reference from experian .

 

Best of luck m8

If I were you I would get hold of my credit report and check exactly what is on it. You can do it online at www.experian.co.uk it costs £2 and as long as you are on the votors roll where you are they will email the report to you. There may be something on the report that would prevent you getting an account, it may be something that you don't know about or has been put there by mistake. Any problems just pm me.

Pam.

 

If anything I've said helps you then please feel free to tip my scales!

i've still heard nothing from the Halifax. my claim was 'acknowledged' on the 14th June.. it says on the Moneyclaim site that the defendant has 28 days to reply.

 

so does anybody know from their experience - do i need to worry nearer the 28 day mark about a court appearance?

 

cheers!

Or you can go here and get it free (for a short while!).

 

If you decide to buy it (rather than just using the 'aproximate' free one, then the cag gets a 5% commission).

the free credit score isnt at all accurate. for starters they dont need your address so how can they give you a proper score if they dont know who you are and where you live.

Halifax WON X 2, Northern Rock WON, Capital One WON, Marbles WON, HSBC WON

On the 25th october I will be filing a claim for £175.00 Citicards. Just watch it!

They do take the postcode though, don't they? I just did mine and it seemed about right.

nothing to report like, i'm just sitting and waiting, sitting and waiting

 

i'm at my desk at work - headphones on and this song comes on by The Transplants - its called 'We Trusted You' and the lyric is almost entirely relevant to everyone on the site - let me share a selection of lyrics.

 

 

 

CHORUS:

We trusted you, we put out a helping hand

Only in return, we get a stabbing in the back

 

...Took us for granted, let's start here

Friendship over, so very clear

Then what is fair is gonna be fair

**** you...you're over...

 

...Stood by your side, you put a knife in my back

Never ever thought it'd be you who would do me like that

But we live and we learn, or so it's said

 

.....The mistakes I've made won't happen again

Keep my enemies closer than I keep my friends

 

.....Will we ever be the same? Well my answer is no

 

Don't wake up now, it's gonna be too late

Don't give me that **** about cleaning the slate

You've been at it too long, all your life that I've checked

Now your time's almost up....

 

If you don't stand for nothing I can't really stand behind you

Who knew you withdrew your point of view

I lost mine, you cry and whine all the time

And I cant stand aside or anywhere near you

I'd get in check, you're a wreck, no respect,

 

 

 

i know this is completely irrelevant so please bear with me!

 

but last night i was beginning to think that nice as it would be to get the cash BACK (and god knows i'm skint - but i'm just so used to being skint!), i really hope it GOES TO COURT!

 

i don't feel scared of the process like i initially did. i'm living in Halifax, i know people at the 'Halifax COURIER' (the local rag) and i'd love to stand there armed with the great arguments posted elsewhere on this site and look someone representing the Halifax right in the eye and talk it through! and i know i could get some emotional mileage out of the torment they brought to my life when i really needed a LITTLE EXTRA HELP!!

 

rant over, cheers for listening! (its lunchtime, i'm bored)
