    • Thank goodness it's not your roof and you get to foot the bill! How big are these bits of mortar? How often are they falling into your garden? Hourly, daily? Just go ahead with your plans, of course, they're not going to be worried by your time pressures and the urgency of the situation, so simply carry on as you would have done and I'm sure everything will go fine. Unless there is a danger to life and serious structural issues which mean you cannot venture into your garden, then IMHO there is little more you can do less for what you have done so already and made them aware of the issue.
    • Hi all!   Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!!    I parked up (at 18:08) in a rush, entered my Reg and paid for an hour of parking. At 18:20 I got a ticket for not paying for parking.    I've just looked at my receipt and noticed why ... I put "22" instead of "21"  when i put in my Reg. yes... what a stupid mistake.    I seem to remember there being a court case or a rule change about entering the wrong reg but the company wasn't at a loss because i had paid for the parking just technically for the wrong car. Am i making that up?    Any advice would be gratefully received, even some key points i have to hit when doing the appeal      
    • You haven't returned to the thread to give us your views, but a couple of other things strike me which you should consider: 1. You say that at no time was your father's licence revoked by the DVLA. It didn't have to be revoked. It expired in September and his "entitlement to drive" (of which the licence provides proof) expired along with it. He could only continue driving whilst his application was being processed by virtue of s88, and it seems clear to me (based on what you have said) that he was not able to take advantage of the benefits provided by that section. 2. The letter he received threatening to revoke his licence was probably a template letter sent when any medical issues are brought to the attention of the DVLA. But it is clear that beyond September until it was eventually renewed, your father had no valid licence to be revoked. I believe a "not guilty" plea in court will fail. The basic facts are that your father's licence expired in September, it was not renewed until February because the DVLA were looking into his medical declaration and he could not take advantage of s88. So in December he had no licence and no entitlement to drive under s88. The facts that he believed he was fit to drive and that his licence was eventually renewed may mitigate the offence but they do not provide a defence. I also asked whether he had received a summons (very unusual these days) or whether he had received a "Single Justice Procedure Notice". The way to proceed from here differs slightly depending on what he has received so if you let me know, I'll advise further.  
    • Well, what I've read from various sources suggest if a CCJ is 6 years old that if becomes pretty much ineffective for enforcement purposes in its original form.  And that if it's about to expire then the claimant needs to apply to the court to extend the original CCJ within the final year.  Even if they do apply for an extension within the 6 years they have to have a very strong argument for doing so such as the person being out of the country or could not be traced, basically show they were actively still perusing the debt I guess. Now if a claimant ever does apply within the 6 years to extend the CCJ, would the person named on if be notified by the court that such an application has been made?.  In my case I've heard nothing from the court so assume no such application has been made.  The original CCJ in my own case is now a year beyond the 6 years of issue so must now make things even less likely again. So whilst the CCJ exists that they have not enforced it in that time must surely make it unlikely they can now take it back to court because as said it would be very rare for a judge to agree to such action now. That said, I guess they now can't use the CCJ to continue with any action for an attachment order to our mortgage either?

    • 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.

Sent prelim letter today, just looked on the web site for interest rate. At the moment it is 16.9% so I went with this.

 

I find from reading some lucky people haven't had their £10.00 cashed. I was not one of the lucky ones never mind.

 

Just going to wait to send the next letter assuming I will have to.

 

Will keep you posted.

Yes on the statements it says for example 1.385% this is only the monthly interest and on a previous post I asked how I could work out the APR from this as I read somewhere you don't jst times it by 12.

 

I thought it easier just to go onto the website and found the rate was 16.9% can you belive though students are charged 18.9% what a rip off!

 

Thanks anyway

Hi All,

 

Just received a letter from NatWest, thanking me for my letter of the 12th April 2007. Blah blah............".We believe that our charges are fair, reasonable and transparent. We consider the amounts debited to your account have been applied strctly in accordance with your agreement and pubished tariff.

 

However, having reviewed your case and as a gesture of good will and without admission of liability or error, we are prepared to offer the amount of £xxx.xx paid direct into your account (do they not realise this account has been closed for over 12 months!) This figure represents a refund of the difference between our original £18-£20 and current £12 late payment charge and includes any associated interest charges.

 

Acceptance by you of this payment will be in full and final settlement of any claims you have relating to our charges.

 

To accept this offer please complete the attached form and return it to us in the reply paid envelope enclosed".

 

How does NO sound!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I am unsure wether to accept it as a partial payment or just a blank refusal. With the Bradford I just point blank refused and they paid up within a few days of the refusal?

 

Any comments welcome:)

Hi julied, I'd personally tell them to get lost - in a professional manner of course!! Seriously, stick to your guns and hold out for the full amount - we all know £12 is still a ripoff charge levy anyway.

 

You can partially reject if you want to whilst still pursuing them for the balance, but you've come this far - so I'd say reject it outright and explain your reasons for doing so............ then keep going with the claim!!!

 

fingers crossed for a full and final settlement soon! Good luck, hedgey xxx :p

Thanks Hedgey,

 

Just about to start my rejection letter, I wouldn't mind but the claim is not for much at all. Just been reading vons thread, hope this claim isn't going to be that complicated.

 

Why do banks insist on making us pay out more just to settle anyway? Thank goodness for the wordprocessor, If I'd had to write out everything by hand I would probably have given up by now.

 

I'll keep plodding on!:)

Well,

 

Thats my rejection letter completed!

 

I have quite a few claims going on. all at different stages yesterday I had 6 recorded delivery letters, I always get a handful of labels from the nice lady at our local post office. She's quite pleased when she sees me as she knows everythings been filled in and she basically just has to stamp the receipt.

 

Can't wait for NatWest to reply now.:)

Well!,

Account Number: xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx

 

Dear Mr D

 

Thank you for your letter of 26 April , I am sorry that you again have concerns regarding the charges that have been applied to your account.

 

As we outlined in our oletter of 23 April we explain all of our terms and conditions including our fees and charges at account opening and they form the basis of your agreement with us. We must therefore, disagree with the views expressed in your letter.

 

If on reflection you would like to accept our offer of XXX.XX as outlined in our previous letter please complete the attached form and return it to us in the reply paid envelope enclosed. This figure represents a refund of the difference between our original £20 and the current £12 late payment charge and includes any associated interest charges.

 

I would remind you that acceptance by you of this payment will be paid in full and final settlement of all claims you have relating to our charges.

 

Any charges that properly accrue in the future will be applied to your account in line with our published terms and conditions.Would have great difficulty doing this as the account has been closed for a couple of years now!

I would re-iterate that our letter of 5 May should be taken as the Bank's final response. This gives you the option, should you still remain dissatisfied, to refer your case to the Financial Ombudsman Service. If you decide to take this course of action you must do so no later than six months from the date of our final response.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

 

Sarah Appleford

I had already told them in the rejection letter we would only accept it as part payment and seek the rest in court.

 

I think now I will send the Letter Before Action and let them stew for a bit. I'm getting a bit daunted now, It's so long winded. I may also enclose the bit about claiming costs if they settle AFTER I have filed the court papers.

 

Any comments Please

Hi Julied,

 

I have recently filed a claim against Nat CC, I had a similar letter from Mrs. Appleford where she had offered the difference between £20 and £12. I have declined it and went to the courts through MCOL. Currently the status is I have received an acknowledgement that Natwest will defend the whole amount! I personally do not know if anyone has succeded in claiming the full amount (I haven't seen any posts with similar claims) but I feel the charges are unfair and hence can be claimed.

 

Will have to wait and see......will keep you posted!!! Cheers ABA

I too have have two separate claims on the go with NatWest CC, and have received several letters offering me the difference between £15, £20 and £12 from Appleford. In both cases i have posted LBA's, they are about to hit the deadline, but i need to respond to their final response letters.

 

I'm interested in hearing about any other cases or experiences with NatWest CC?

 

Thanks.
