    • Dear Sir/Madam, TFL case number: **** I would like to thank TFL for providing me the opportunity to explain my behaviour. I realised the stupidity of what I have done and wish to seek a resolution to this matter. I have no valid excuse for this action and I am extremely sorry and deeply regret my action. I hope you will accept my sincere apologies. Nothing can justify my action. I am aware that TFL are only able to operate if everyone pays their fare correctly and I feel so guilty about attempting to breach public trust. This has caused me sleepness nights and raised my anxieties. I have history of anxiety. This has been a hard lesson learnt. I have never been in trouble with the law in the past and I ensure that I won’t be in the future. I am and will be using my oyster card (PAYG). I would like to humbly appeal to TFL to allow me to settle this matter out of court and avoid going to prosecution given the adverse consequences it can have on me and my family. I am very concerned that prosecution for the first time and I would like to make restitution for my action. Having a criminal offense on my record will have detrimental consequences on me. I have always been a law abiding person and have no previous offences. I would really appreciate if I can be given the opportunity to pay for any unpaid fares plus any charges and/or administrative cost which have been incurred by TFL due to this incident. I am sincerely remorseful and ashamed of myself, and I fully appreciate the severity and stupidity of my transgressions. Again, I would like to offer my sincerest apologies. Yours Faithfully, My Name
    • the date is 19/04/24, so i have until 29/4/24 to reply? Yes, i will send my draft of my begging letter   
    • use the webform if it allows you to attach your evidential documents then do so but do that later depending upon who your bank is.... - but i suspect you will be referred to Mastercard. who is your bank? dx    
    • If i did it through the bank, they seem to have an online form. I wondered if this is the best way or to do a letter, add supporting documents and send them through the post, recorded delivery  ?

    • 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.

schoolboy error....

 

i sent my SAR off, took a copy of it with the cheque attached to it etc so that they have no "wriggling" room, but in my infinite wisdom forgot to sign the letter....does anybody know if that will give them an excuse to delay it?

 

Cheers

that's what I thought.

 

I'd imagine they'll have to send it back and I'll have to start again then

panic over, i received my statements this morning from June 2004 with a letter saying the rest will follow in up to 6 weeks. I've got a couple going through, so don't mind waiting a while, but I'll give it a couple of weeks and chase them up for the remainder. I'm assuming these should still be here within the 40 days

ok guys...just trawling through these statements and putting what I've got onto the computer, but there's a regular charge for B CARD FAP which seems to vary from month to month. Does anybody know what this could be?

Found out that FAP is actually Family Accident Plan. I phoned up to cancel it and they had no record of me, despite taking the money each month! Have to write to them, so drafted a quick letter, can somebody have a look at this and let me know if you think it's ok?

 

Dear sir / madam

I was checking my credit card statement recently and saw a regular charge for Barclaycard FAP each month. Thinking this was some kind of payment protection plan, I thought nothing more of this until I called Barclaycard to cancel this as it was no longer required.

 

I was informed by Barclaycard that this was actually a Family Accident Plan and to cancel it I’d need to telephone the number that was shown on the statement. I called this number yesterday (20th April) and spoke to a girl called Leah on extension 4241.

 

Unfortunately, despite answering numerous security questions, she was unable to find any details for me and suggested that I write to you.

 

Being a single man, I’m not sure that I’d require a Family Accident Plan, so please can you advise me when the policy was taken out and how I can go about cancelling it.

 

Yours faithfully

Brad

received letter telling me they've paid the difference between the charges and the £12 they're "allowed" to charge and refund will show on my next statement. LBA going off tomorrow, can combine the rejection letter with it.
