    • Hi. Could you post up what they've sent please so we can see what the charge is? Cover up your name and address and their reference number. HB
    • I've looked through all our old NPE threads, and as far as we know they have never had the bottle to do court. There are no guarantees of course, but when it comes to put or shut up they definitely tend towards shut up. How about something like -   Dear Jonathan and Julie, Re: PCN no.XXXXX cheers for your Letter Before Claim.  I rolled around on the floor in laughter at the idea that you actually expected me to take this tripe seriously and cough up. I'll write to you not some uninterested third party, thanks all the same, because you have are the ones trying to threaten me about this non-existent "debt". Go and look up Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd, saddos.  Oh, while you're at it, go and look up your Subject Access Request obligations - we all know how you ballsed that up way back in January to March. Dear, dear, dear - you couldn't resist adding your £70 Unicorn Food Tax, you greedy gets.  Judges don't like these made-up charges, do they? You can either drop this foolishness now or get a hell of a hammering in court.  Both are fine with me.  Summer is coming up and I would love a holiday at your expense after claiming an unreasonable costs order under CPR 27.14(2)(g). I look forward to your deafening silence.   That should show them you're not afraid of them and draw their attention to their having legal problems of their own with the SAR.  If they have any sense they'll crawl back under their stone and leave you in peace.  Over the next couple of days invest in a 2nd class stamp (all they are worth) and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above

    • 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 recently filed two claims with the courts against my bank the TSB for the return of my bank chargers. One for £6,800 the other for £5,600 ( I do have a thread in the TSB section)

 

I first complained about bank chargers in 2002,when I started to get into arrears with my bank loan solely due to bank chargers. I would pay the loan payment into my account but the bank would use the payment to pay chargers, due to this the loan was never getting paid so becoming more and more in arrears this was happening month after month.

 

When I complained to TSB Customer Care their solution was to refinance the loan so that the loan would be paid off. The balance of the account would be zero so no more chargers. I only owed £3,000 on the loan with 2 years left to pay. They refinanced it for £5,000, I did not get any of the money, the bank paid the £3,000 loan ,interest, chargers and thats it I had a new loan for £5,000 but now over 5 years. I have all my correspondence with the bank for all this, the complaints the chargers the offer of the loan to clear it all up.

 

Not long after getting the loan refinanced I became seriously ill , I was diagnosed with a terminal illness and was forced to take early retirement due to this I could no longer pay the loan. I went to the CAB to ask for their advice, they write to TSB on my behalf to see if they would reduce the loan payments but the TSB refused. I have been unable to make payments to the loan since.

 

About 3 weeks ago I received a letter from a Geoffrey Parker Solicitors stating I had 56hrs to pay the loan in full or they will issue me with court proceedings. this is despite my account being in dispute.

 

In November I sent of a SAR request with the £10.00 payment, to the TSB. I have not received this information, I have since wrote to them 5 times and I am now considering court action for the bank to comply. I did make a telephone call to the Andover Dept on Monday asking why they have failed to send me my details especially in relation to my loan agreements and loan contracts. I was informed I do not have any loans with them.

 

Do you think that Lloyd's TSB have sold the loan without in forming me and can they do this.

 

What can I do if anything about this whole situation.

 

I would welcome and advice please

Thanks

Has the cheque been cashed for the sar if so issue for non compliance. If the solicitors issue action against you then you can defend on the basis that you have not had a reply to your sar.

The trick is you issue before and do it on line. That way they have to reply to your claim. If they in the meanwhile issue you can have their claim struck out or notify the court of the other case and see what they say.

Hi again Bailiffchaser, Could I do this on line, I did try doing a N1 MCOL but could not fit all the POC in the space provided is there another one I could use for non-compliance ?

 

I did think at one point that because the refinance loan was provided solely due to bank chargers I could claim to get it wiped out but!!! I realise I cannot claim for the loan and the chargers.

 

I also thought of them issuing and I somehow make a counterclaim as I still have 2 other sets of chargers I have not claimed for.

 

If you think the way forward is to file first then that's the way I will go as I know of no other way of sorting it.

 

Thanks for being prompt in your replies bailiffchaser I appreciate it.

Sorry Bailiffchaser, just one more thing. since I have issued proccedings to my bank could they have sold the loan to a credit company without my knowledge whilst there is a dispute on the account.

You need to fill in a N1 for non-compliance - MCOL is only for money claims - template here.

You can claim back the interest on the loan that related to bank charges - see here.

Gizmo111, thanks they are realy useful threads so I will take my time reading them, I had forgotten my 3k overdraft was also converted into this loan.

Also Gizmo111 one more quick question if you don't mind. I have been informed that I am sueing the bank for the return of my bank chargers do they have to make a countercliam for the loan or can the issue for that once the chargers are out of the way so to speak

 

what are you thoughts on this.

They could issue a counterclaim for the claim, bit I doubt if they will as this wil lbring the issue of bank charges into the court room. I suspect they will claim for the loan after teh bank charges. But the loan is with a DCA and they can't find an agreement so unlikely they wil ldo anything at this stage.

Have you calimed any part of the loan on you rbank charges claim?

The way i see it what is the most that you have to loose ? At the most a judge will say no. As long as you keep your claim under £5000 Or even better split it into 2 separate claims and date the periods ie 010101-010102

and then 02/01/02-02/01/03. This will keeps your claims separate and will keep your costs down where you will not risk costs etc.

Hi everyone, answers to both questions.

 

(1) Hello Gizmo111.

 

No I have not claimed for the loan within my claims for bank chargers.

 

I do have another sets of chargers to claim, again from the TSB for about £3,000 but until I get the SAR information I am unable to work out how much these chargers amount too.

 

(2) Hello Bailiffchaser,

 

I am not sure I understand what you are saying. Currently I have filed 2 claims with the TSB one for £6,800 and the other one is for £5,600 I have sent off the AQ for them and I'm just waiting for a court date. TSB are defending both of these claims.

 

Your comment I am unsure about is this one:

At the most a judge will say no. As long as you keep your claim under £5000 Or even better split it into 2 separate claims and date the periods ie 010101-010102.

 

Say no to what? I have not sent the prelim letter for the claim of £3,000 yet as I am unsure how much they will still owe me after my first 2 claims since I cannot get the statements of them , for this account.

 

Thats one of my dilemma's, my 2 claims for chargers have been filed all I am waiting for is a date for the hearing. but what can I do with regards the loan, is there anyway of getting it wiped out by a court for instance could the claim for £3,000 which I have not applied for yet also include the loan as the loan was only given to me to refinance the original loan which became in arrears solely due to bank chargers. If the bank had not taken the illegal chargers from my account I would not have gotten into arrears so therefor I would not have needed a loan to pay them back.

 

Do I hold back on the 3rd claim, wait for TSB or if they have sold on the debt to a CA wait for them to issue proceedings and make a counta-claim, the problem I see hear would be whether or not the CA would also be responsible for the chargers, I somehow think not.

 

when I file for the non-compliance order could I somehow include the loan their as part of damagers and if so how would I word this.

 

Also since I am in dispute can the bank sell my loan.

 

WHAT DO I DO????.

 

I just don't no what to do about it and whether I should keep the upper hand or let the banks dictate. I am happy to except all the help and advice given to help me sort this out.

 

Thanks

What i mean at the most a judge will say no to keeping your claims on the small track. If you split your claims in two so that they are under 5 k each ie 6k in 2X3k Then the cases will remain on the small track.

 

Also if your debt is sold to a dc then what you could argue in court is that the dca were sold the debt at a reduced amount. Why was this offer not made to me ? As usually banks write the debt off and sell it to a dc who will then try and collect the whole debt.

Hi Bailiffchaser.

 

The 2 claims are lodge with the courts and AQ filed, when filling in the AQ I made a request that my claims be heard in the small claims tract.

 

Are you saying I should cancel my claims and start over again splitting them into 4 smaller claims, would I lose the courts costs of £250 plus £100 AQ = £350 x2 claims £700. That would be a lot of money to lose and how would this help defend my case for my bank loan

 

Thanks

What i am saying is that if your amount per claim is over £5000 then split the claim into 2. The claims that are you have started let them run their natural course. AS if you withdraw them then you will not be able to claim for the same things again.

Not on your life!!!, I have been saving up for what seems like forever to pay for them and badgered lots of members for their kind advice and offers of help and support.

 

My claims are happy where they are for now, when I am in court it will be a different matter.

 

It's the loan that is giving me the hassel and which needs urgent attention.
