    • Odd one this, I recieved 2 notice's for the 18th and 19th April stating that I overstayed on Wigan Robin Retail Park. Permitted Minutes 180. They state I was there 355 minutes on the 18th and 388 minutes on the 19th. Both times I was there around 10 minutes getting my wife a brew from costa after dropping the kids off at school.  On both days I had passed through there a second time around 3pm, again to get a brew then left. Both notices have 2 images each, Entrance and exit.  This is the interesting bit. The Entrance images both timestamped actually clearly show I am exiting the retail park not entering it. And the exiting images they provided show me leaving the carpark after visiting a second time later in the day. In the attachments You'll see all 4 images show that I am exiting, none of them are of me entering. I understand most if not all that see this post won't know the area but if the look at the map link i gave you'll see the road I was on leading up to the main road. g24 ltd 1.pdfg24 ltd 1.pdf GoogleMap view of the road I am on in the entrance images I would have had dashcam footage but I since formatted the memory card. I tried recovery tools but I couldn't get the files back.  
    • An update: I just got another PCN. I get the feeling that someone in the residence is calling OPS, as it's dated for a few mins after I parked. I won't appeal of course. Interestingly, our cleaner was also parked but didn't get a PCN. I asked them why and apparently they're whitelisted. I did ask the MA if they could whitelist me and they said they couldn't. Clearly they decided not to tell the truth. Surely, this would resolve all of the issues entirely i.e. we'd keep non-residents from parking, whilst allowing for residents to park without issue? Also, could OPS now take me to court for both PCNs separately, or could it be one case?    
    • I was with sse broadband until Jun 2023 at which point without notifying me they passed me to origin broadband who I was unaware is my supplier now -  My broadband at home kept working and I was under the impression that sse are taking direct debit payments from my bank account and everything is fine because the Internet has continued to work.  To my horror I have just noticed that origin broadband has been sending me PDF bills for £39 a month and the email heading has been showing as just no reply so I thought it was junk and never bother to check it.  I have now noticed a bill every month and now I owe them some £350. I did instruct origin to supply me Internet and therfore don't feel responsible for this debt.  What are my rights and is it a legal debt considered I did not sign any agreements with them - their first contact with me tho was very clever back in July 2023 trying to lure me into an agreement however because I just saw that email now I'm not sure what to do because I owe them 400 pounds nearly supposedly at 39 per month.  Our agreement with sse was for 26 per month but they shut shop and passed us to origin without asking our consent.    The following is what origin email said back in July before they stated sending invoice every month for payment.    We hope you're enjoying your reliable phone and broadband with us. We're just letting you know your phone and broadband package will end on 30 Jun 2023. Thankfully, good things don't need to come to an end - read on to decide what you want to do next.   Below you'll find the details of your current package and some other great options to compare it to.   What can I do - shall I just pay the debt and cancel it and move elsewhere or is there any way I can fight this as they are more or less enforced upon us with out permission by sse who most Likly sold our accounts to them.    Any help greatly appreciated 
    • whyisthis - Oh bless ya, it's so easily done.  Not worth losing sleep over; listen to the guys here, they know their stuff.  They won't take you to court, they'd get laughed out of it x
    • Monk - you are an experienced and respected member of this forum. Surely you realise how vitally important it is to respect court deadlines. There was no lack of knowledge.  You knew the deadline date.  You calculated it yourself in post 5.  It was written on the claimform.  Defence deadlines are written on probably a thousand threads on the forum. Sorry, but if you're up for a legal fight you also have to be up for organising yourself properly. As for now - 1.  pay it within 30 days and the CCJ disappears, or 2.  don't pay, nothing "legal" will happen, but you'll have a CCJ for six years.

    • 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.

Normally people will day that the 6 year period starts from the date you realised these charges were unlawful...the date of your SAR could be a good place to start. There are, however, people claiming back for further than the 6 years, so it must be possible!

 

Good luck

Thanks for your replies & help...I submitted my S.A.R. on the 11th Dec. 2006...so I guess my claim should start from 2000?? However, I only have 1 charge in 1999 which is the 31/12/1999 one & I've already included it on my spreadsheet to the Halifax...I'm getting all confused & jittery now that it's time to enter the claim to Court...HELP!!:o

Hi Docannie,

 

Thought I would post on this thread not to hijack the newcomer. Your account o/d limit is showing a N/A. Maybe the system is down, maybe they have withdrawn it, maybe they have sent an offer letter???

 

God only knows its the Halifax!!

 

Sorry I cannot help any further as I only have a mortgage and savings account (its got £10 in it!) and got robbed when I had to leave my job in 2000 to look after my wife who had cancer.

 

It would be interesting to find out why, but on a similiar post last week the Haliprats blamed it on system updates.

 

Best wishes

Thank you for all the kind thoughts!! I still haven't had an offer so am waiting for time to tick down on my MCOL claim!! My partner got an offer yesterday (& he started his claim 2 weeks AFTER mine) by phone which at 1st he accepted, but today he phoned back & haggled until he got the amount he was claiming...£601.00...not bad eh??!! My claim is for MUCH more so maybe they do draw it out longer, I'll keep you posted!! :)

Hi All,

Filed my claim with MCOL on Mon. 19/02...checked my online bank account today & £1532.00 paid in today by Halifax...I'm claiming £4673.77. Spoke to Catherine Jones (tel:01244-693661) & she stated that they will only pay out back to 6years, & they are starting from 2007 back to & including 2001. I requested my statements in Dec. 2006 so was claiming back to & including 2000...am I right that I can use the date when I requested statements as the date I'm claiming from?? & even though claim is now with MCOL she doesn't want to pay me any interest or refund my court fees!! She kept going away & conferring with a manager, finally she offered me £2597.00 & says that the balance between the £1532 & £2597 will be paid into my account tomorrow & I will also receive an acceptance letter thru the post. If I only partially accept this amount they will take the money back out from my account...please advise!! I'm worried that the court will agree that the 6 years should only commence from 2001 & not 2000 as I've stated.

When I requested the 6 years statements in Dec. 2006 I was sent statements going back to 31/12/99...I'm going to phone Ms Jones again tomorrow regarding this but would appreciate any clarification on the matter.

Thanking you in advance for any help,

docannie.

i read it 6mths frrom when you firsrt send your speadsheet

 

dont bother phoning , take them to court.

 

dx100uk:D

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Yeah, its 6 years from the SAR, so keep on with your claim. Sounds like another dirty trick if you ask me...they're obviously hoping that we're desperate for cash (which I know I am!!) and will cave in with the threat of half of it being paid in and then taken away again.
