    • Yeah, I would confirm that anyway, as there is a separate sheet where I have to put in those details and my insurance number and driving licence number. That is on page 2 (page one is their allegations) then page three is a statement that you weren't the driver and space to give details who was driving. Page 4 is an empty sheet for a statement to explain the situation. So I will fill out my details as the driver on page 2, admitting I was driving at the time, and then attach my statement as above as a separate sheet. That should hopefully do it at this stage

    • Seems OK, except that you must provide your details (as the driver). Include your name, address, DOB and driving licence number. This is to comply with s172 of the Road Traffic Act. Keep a copy and get a free Certificate of Posting from the Post Office.
    • Dear all, some information/advice required please.   I recently received a Further Steps Notice about a fine from 19/03/2018 which I knew nothing about. It was regarding a vehicle parked on the street without tax ( It was covered up and there because the only key to it had been stolen, I had been away from home  and I was having trouble getting a new key cut and coded to the vehicle )  I had not made a change of address to DVLA which would be why I knew nothing about the fine until receiving the final steps notice dated 29th April 2024 and giving me 10 working days to pay, although the notice did not arrive till May 9th 2024. I emailed the London Collection and Compliance Centre on May 13th 2024 asking for any information and they sent me a copy of the original fine. It is for  £390 back vehicle tax, £85 cost and £600 fine.  I now have received a Notice of Enforcement dated 7th June 2024 demanding payment ( total £1036)  or an arrangement by 6am 15th June ( tomorrow )  My question is is it tool late now to question the £600 fine part of the total amount to be paid ? That amount seems punitive.  Would making a statuary declaration regarding having no knowledge of the original court date apply ? And any other advice gratefully received. I am on Universal Credit and apparently they have already taken £177 via benefit reductions which I wasn’t aware of, but does make it seem strange that they were also unable to contact me.    Many thanks for any assistance

    • 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.

Hi Again

 

I've just heared from a friend recently that same thing happened to him. He had to pay this fine but he ignored all the letters and everything and then they took him to the court and he had to pay nearly £200.00 in total.

 

My cut-off date is 8th oct for paying £50.00. I'll rather pay 50 then paying 200 and going to courts and stuff.

 

Was this Euro Car Parks or was it a council ticket..... Two completely different animals.

If he had used a decent defence and contested it properly, Euro Car Parks would have been laughed out of court..... after paying costs!

.

So without any contact with the ppc you are saying they took him to court and actually won!!!!!

Was the case defended?

Please post the court, date and case number.

I don't have that details. It was my friend not me. Im only telling you what he told me when I asked him about this. Not sure what happened.

With respect it sounds like absolute B*llocks.

Read this thread, carefully, from the beginning.

 

Then IGNORE!

Don't phone them.

Don't write to them.

Don't reply to their letters.

Remember. It is NOT a fine. Private companies CANNOT fine you.

It is an unenforcible invoice.

Just ignore.

You will get a few letters threatening ever more dire consequences.

Ignore!

Letters from a debt collector? They originate from the next desk in the same office.

Letter from a solicitor? That comes from the office cleaner or the teaboy, depending on whose turn it is.

Ignore.

If that doesn't work, then just IGNORE, some more!

Eventually they will leave you alone and chase somebody who is more gullible!

 

The only letter that you need to respond to is a court summons which bears the court seal. If you get one of those, then post the details, here, and you will be shown how to fight it and win.

 

Until then, just continue to IGNORE!

Unless, of course, you WANT to pay it!

 

In which case, go ahead and pay! But don't look for sympathy if you ask for advice then totally ignore it.

 

At the end of the day, you must make up your own mind, but if you don't want to pay the [problem] invoice, then......

 

IGNORE IT! ;)

I've been waiting over a year for these shysters to take me to court.

 

Does anybody else smell a rat?

Hi Horsham,

Euro car parks same as mine. Also the same reason and same place where I got mine.

 

I'd bet the IP address of this poster could be traced back to a greasy spoon somewhere in the West Midlands.

 

It it just me, or can anyone else smell that delusional tw*t Perky at work again?

A big juicy one :p

 

Even when you co-operate with them they still won't play court and I guess if they ever do take the court route and get a genuine win then the case will form part of the spiel on the [problem]-voices

You're right there. A number of PPC's have started claiming that their charges are reasonable and lawful and that a "precedent" was set when Perky fluked his cherry-picked win in the Thomas case. :-x

 

This despite the fact the county court is not precedent setting - unless the case goes to a higher court (i.e. on appeal). They say nothing when they get their arses kicked. :D
