    • .... So after a 14 day investigation with p2g i had a live chat with them yesterday ( 8th June) who said they didnt know where the parcel was but closed the case as i didnt take out their protectiove insurance.  So now at 07.33 on the 9th of june i was repling to this thread with all the relivent information to start a claim and i check the tracking of the 'Lost' parcel for specific dates to find the tracking has updated and the parcel is now at the recipients local depot  ? which is annoying because ive already refunded the buyer as i didnt want any negative feedback as it was an ebay listing and id want a refund if i was in his postion. So i posted the parcel with Evri on the 20/5/24  The delivery date was missed due to it being sent to the wrong depot and a case was opened on the 25/5/24 14 Investigation failed to locate the item in Evri's system and case closed on the 8/6/24 and now the tracking has updated on the 8th saying its at the recipients depot so is likey to receive it in the next few days .... Typical.  Oh well nevermind , thanks everyone

    • 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.

I have spent two weeks going over this excellent site's documentation and have now sent a prelim letter to NatWest requesting payment of just over £2,000 in charges going back six years.

 

I am looking forward to Court action. I recently successfully sued a firm of bailiffs and am itching to have a go at another piratical organisation!

 

I wonder if anyone reading this has considered the penalties levied by Transport for London and their Congestion Charge? Is there a real difference between bank penalties and TfL CC penalties? Maybe a new thread somewhere...

 

Best wishes to all

No response from the jollies at NatWest at all from prelim letter regarding my £2,000+, so LBA has now gone off and they have until 23rd March - at which point it's a full broadside with the help of MCOL.

 

Must say, and I know I shouldn't, I am rather enjoying all this...

 

Good luck all

Well done, keep at 'em, seems they are paying out a little quicker in some cases but perhaps their workloads is a bit too high for them to respond to every one quickly!!

 

Good luck (not that you need it)

Amazing.

 

Rather than cough up the dough which NatWest must know is unlawfully taken, they would rather pay out interest and Cobblers' fees just to (apparently) make it as awkward and time-consuming as possible for their customers to reclaim what is rightfully theirs.

 

Anyway, NatWest acknowledged my claim on the last day and have stated that they intend to defend it. Last day to file their defence is 28th April.

 

In the meantime, and just to show that I'm not to be trifled with, I've started a claim for charges on a business account too. Arf! Arf!

 

What a pitiful organisation they are, to be sure.

 

Good luck all.

Hi all,

 

Have just received Cobbler's defence and another document, a Request for Information and Clarification under CPR Part 18.

 

The defence is laughable. I can only image that poor Lynsey is churning out this guff knowing full well it will never be presented in Court. How embarassing for her if it was!

 

As for the CPR 18 info, I've pointed out to Cobblers that they are merely wasting time by asking for this. I've cc'd the Court and also told them that Cobblers are wasting time, and have also asked them to write and ask if they intend to be present in Court.

 

This is just delaying tactics isn't it? It can't be anything else, unless that Lynsey has lost the plot entirely.

 

Good luck everyone

LA

Hi folks

 

Have just received a Transfer of Proceedings note from the Court, as well as a notice stating that the AQ has been dispensed with (which is nice).

 

I've also asked the Court to strike out the defence because it is so rubbish. I'll let you know what happens.

 

Carry on everyone, and keep up the good work!

Blimey! NatWest have paid up!

 

3 days before the hearing I received a cheque for £3K, actually dated 3 weeks earlier so I guess they had no intention of attending all along.

 

Mods - can you move this to the successful claims section?

 

Thanks for all your help and encouragement everyone - I love you all! Donation on it's way!
