    • none of their ruddy business! and if they have been pressuring you in o borrowing from friends and family .. THAT IS WRONG AND AGAINST THE REGULATIONS...if you have that in B&W you need to REPORT THEM. once a debt is defaulted and it gone from your file it can never come back. not without a fight in court you won't. i think you are getting confused here , just because you've been paying 'creditors' via and IVA it does NOT mean the debt can re-appear on your file, and it does not mean you are more likely to get more CCJ attempts. statute barring is 6yrs from a debts last payment, but that can't change anything on your credit file. i really wish you hadn't sent that letter. please dont do anything more now unless you check with us first..no calls, in/out. no emails in/out no letters in/out....thats if you want our help.... NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS STOP GROVELLING to them. could have been worded alot better and more forcefully. dx    
    • Well that will lead to more backdoor CCJs. I think you need to complain to all and sundry.  Let's start with the BPA.  The BPA are PE's mates, so they will never decide that PE have done anything wrong.  But that's not the point, correspondence between the two may lead to PE promising to write to the Scottish address, which is all you want.  Check the below for accuracy as methinks you have sent more correspondence that what I've quoted.  How about something like - Dear BPA, Re : Parkingeye Ltd PCN no.XXXXX, Claim no.XXXXX PCN no.XXXXX I am writing to complain about your above-mentioned member. I understand of course that you cannot enter into the merits of why a PCN was issued. The reason for my complaint is that, instead of writing to me at my address at XXXXX, Scotland, your member insists in writing to me at XXXXX, England, which is an address which I have never lived at.  I have always resided at the Scottish address.  The address registered with the DVLA for the vehicle is my Scottish address. I first because aware of this mess when the person who lives at the English address kindly contacted me, to tell me that a County Court Judgement for me had arrived at that address.  I requested that Parking Eye agree to a set aside by consent.  However, they refused.  I ended up paying £XXX despite having had no chance to defend myself. Regardng the second PCN, I attach correspondence dated XX February and XX March.  The latter was a complaint - which your operator has completely ignored.  Even worse, they have instructed debt collecting agencies twice to write to the English address.  On top of this, the person at the English address is moving out next week which means I am in danger a second time of losing a court case by default. I would therefore like to complain about your operator and would request that you instruct them to do what should be a simple thing - to write to me at my correct address. Yours, XXXXX

    • 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.

That's brilliant! Will use that next time!

 

Just a small update..... No calls today, they must have got the Harassment Warning letters...?!! LOL!

Hello Diskmandave.

 

Your thread was one of the first that I read when I was still a newbie.

 

I have just caught up with it today and it has had me ROFPMSL!! Good to hear that you're not leaving, I had a pit in my stomach when I read that particular post. :(:D

 

CurlyBen, tomterm8, ODC and rory32 et al have all helped contribute to making this such a great thread too.

 

I'll be keeping a closer eye on my inbox from now on, for post notifications. I too have commenced my battle with Robinson Way/Horwich Farrelly (depends on which hat they feel like wearing), too.

 

I have promised Spiritgirl and Hopeful1 that I will start my own thread on it too which I will do soon. I have received some great gems from them too.

 

Unlike you, I refuse to speak to them by phone. At one point they were calling my mobile 3 times a day, every day. In the end I purchased some inexpensive call blocking software which basically hangs the phone up on them, as soon as it detects their number! :p;) The beauty of this is that I now have a comprehensive call log of their stupid phone calls.

 

Anyway, watch out for my post. You can see what I've been up to in my other threads (see my signature) too.

 

Keep at them. I, like you intend to keep sticking to them until they get lost!

It depends on what operating system your phone has, I have an SPV M700 which is PDA phone running Window Mobile 5. The utility in question is called Call Block and it only cost me around $10. I bought it from the Amercian website for Handango - Handango - Windows Mobile, Palm OS, BlackBerry and Symbian Smartphone Software Downloads. It allows me to create a blacklist of numbers which is stored on the phone. It gives the option to answer then hang up or to just hang up straight away! I set mine to hang up straight away, so they just got my voicemail each and every time. :p

 

There is a similar software for phones running Symbian, Blackberry, Palm OS. I was driven to these lengths as my service provider Orange informed me that they couldn't block specific numbers to my phone. Being the geek I am, I knew that there had to be specific software that could deal with this. Depending on the software you purchase, you can go as far as blocking unwanted SMS messages, creating whitelists and blacklists for numbers etc.

 

It's been a revelation for me I can tell you. :D

NO.....

 

It was a bad crash.... It's all gone! Thx for suggesting though... :|

 

 

Dave have you tried the professional recovery route though? Just because a HDD appears to have no data it doesn't mean that it doesn't. Usually data is recoverable even after a drive is wiped due to its failure, power surge etc.

 

Do you need a recommendation?

LOL! I guess I should spread that one round the forum. :p;)

 

I still don't quite know how the bar stewards got hold on my mobile number. Prior to this I used to get text messages which I also ignored.

 

I am registered with the UK and US Handango sites. I buy from either depending on the rate when I do conversions to see which site is cheaper. There's usually not a lot in it, but I have to watch my pennies so every little helps.:)

 

Glad I could be of some help.

Despite being a Handango customer (for my Palm) for ages, I didn't realise they also had Symbian software. A quick look reveals that there are quite a few call blockers available for my N95. Just what I need.

 

Spread the word!

Thx for all the suggestions.... I've started again from scratch though...

Just got a whole stack of system discs to do and should back to somewhere near normal, not going to get anything much done tonight now though, sick of the sight of the damn thing!

 

Just to update... 2 calls today...

 

1) Housephone... "Can I speak to DMD at xYz address please?!" Sneaky!

-- "Speaking but i'm not confirming any private details on the 'phone".

-- "What's the reason for that?"

-- "Data Protection"

-- cLuNk!

2) Mobile 'phone... Same as (1) but the guy sounded like he really really wanted a fight, so just answered "can't confirm" to all his questions 'til he got really wound up & slammed the 'phone down! Think i've spoken to him before on the infamous long quoted telecon that I posted ages ago.

 

Ohh well, look forward to tomorrow...!

 

Priceless!! You really COULDN'T make this stuff up. Roll on tomorrow indeed.

Yes they do use the same typeface. I have had letters from both.

 

Funnily enough the number that kept calling my mobil (now happily blocked ;):p ), when I called it back, the person that answered (after probing from me) told me that they were Horwich Farrelly. As I'd called the same number before and recognised it from when the used to call my landline, I knew it was Robinson Way.

 

Does it depend on which idiot in the building that answers the phone? I wonder...................

Horwich Farrelly isn't a real person at all just the pet name for the Threat-O-Matic 3000 ;)

OMG Dave!

 

I can't believe this thread is still going. I haven't contributed since Aug 07! I had to start from page 24 to catch up.

 

It's good to see everyone is still around, Curlyben, ODC, spiritgirl, babybear to name but a few.

 

I had a battle of my own with RWC which I didn't serialise, as I have quite a few things going on at the moment, however I'm pleased to say that they've stopped writing and phoning me (remember my 3 calls a day, EVERY day). They had the cheek to pass my debt on to Scotcall, then on to Capquest (yes whilst in dispute), who I sent packing. So I've not had any DCA fun myself in over 6 months.

 

They will give up eventually. I'm surprised they haven't sold your debt on though. That's what they did to me the cheeky tankers!

 

Anyway I will be keeping a closer eye on proceedings from now on. :p
