    • It would help us to advise you if you fill in the sticky that dx100uk posted yesterday, then we can start looking at this. It's also worth sending off an SAR [click on the letters for further information] to Met, so that you have all the information for later. You don't want to be trying to get hold of it in a rush. HB

    • Thanks for replies people, I think i will hold tight for a bit.
    • Can I please have advice on how to deal with Forecourt Eye.  Received a letter claiming I drove off without paying for petrol three months ago...there is a picture of me at the pump and me clearly offering my card to pay - apparently I only paid for some snacks and then left. Its also for a very odd amount 23 - I did check my account and I was charged 1.50 for snacks. I obviously had every intention of paying and for some reason either the transaction didn't go through.    I am kind of fuming about this as I had no idea and if I did not pay I have no idea what the circumstances were , but not a 'drive off' as described by Forecourt Eye. I have no issue paying for the petrol if the payment for whatever reason did not go through. In fact we visited the garage on advice of a friend who has a legal background and offered to pay, the lady behind the till called the manager and we spoke to her on the phone where she robotically said its 'the way it is now and it goes to Forecourt Eye' I then said I am contractually obliged to pay you, not Forecourt Eye.  We are visiting the garage again when the manager is there and will offer to pay again.  Interestingly when we called in the lady behind the till asked if I had called the garage the day before about the matter- I said no that was not me, so somebody else clearly  has had the same issue, I can't see drive off's being that common in any petrol station! So I know I am not the only one.    I know calling Forecourt Eye is not advised, I visited a shell garage yesterday ( really not wanting to ) made sure I had chip and pin and made sure I knew exactly what was being entered into the machine. They now have their threatening posters all over the pumps, basically making them or the garage responsible for any mistake...

    • 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.

Go have a look at my thread - I am poster who did skeleton argument in court for hubby etc..

Cabots are going to attempt drown out the CCA with Deeds of Assignments, Sale Agreements and anything they can muster up etc.. Don't let them do this - bring your argument back to CCA and then if/once they prove that document to be in correct format/order move your argument on afterwards if needed. They will try railroad you and Judge etc..

I can't stress enough to people these Judges are really good people and they will listen and help you when presented with a clear argument etc.. BUT we need to have empathy and realise that these Judges are NOT consumer law experts - like us they know some stuff but not all law. So the emphasis is upon us to be clear with what we are aiming at in court. Chances are Hodsons will send in a local locum solicitor with instructions to go for fast track claim - this person will literally pick the file up on the day and won't know the "whole history" of the file/claim involved - so WE have to be more on the ball than ever to stop this being railroaded into Fastrack. We need to stress firmly "we want documents" and help Judge with a clear argument based on what we want.

Hope this helps - I am no expert really - but if it is kept simple it appears to work in court.

 

Is there a Mod available who could make a sticky out of the first two posts on my thread please? I feel this will really help lots of people - perhaps if we place it in the DCA and Cabot stickies it will be seen help anyone dealing with DCA's and CCA issues.

This is already fast track , at the last hearing the dj wasnt really interested in my arguments about notice of assignment (not yet recieved) , the fact that the deed of assignment has nothing in it about my agreement and the fact that the ca was unreadable and didnt meet the requirement. The judge was just concerned that the ca wasnt readable. Does anyone know if i need to attend cabots hearing to extend the deadline. What annoys me is they had an order at the end of july after a hearing to supply me with a clear copy which they failed to do ,so i wrote to the courts asking them to strike it out ands the court gave them another seven days to comply. How long will the court give them ? its been seven weeks already.

I somehow don't think they'll risk turning up in court with a forgery. Even if it was the judge who told them it was OK. What if he's ill, and another judge sits in? He might throw them in jail??? :eek:

 

 

I agree with this point - I don't think Cabots could risk this happening -Judges have a habit of listing these hearings on the next available date for hearings - which isn't necessarily their next available date - so it can often be another judge?

 

With one of my hearings I have had 2 different judges - so they'd be taking risks to do this.

Think this covers it

 

60.—(1) The Secretary of State shall make regulations as to the form and content of

documents embodying regulated agreements, and the regulations shall contain such

provisions as appear to him appropriate with a view to ensuring that the debtor or

hirer is made aware of—

(a) the rights and duties conferred or imposed on him by the agreement,

(b) the amount and rate of the total charge for credit (in the case of a consumer

credit agreement),

© the protection and remedies available to him under this Act, and

(d) any other matters which, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, it is desirable

for him to know about in connection with the agreement.

 

(2) Regulations under subsection (1) may in particular—

35

(a) require specified information to be included in the prescribed manner in

documents, and other specified material to be excluded;

(b) contain requirements to ensure that specified information is clearly brought to

the attention of the debtor or hirer, and that one part of a document is not given

insufficient or excessive prominence compared with another.

 

(3) If, on an application made to the Director by a person carrying on a consumer

credit business or a consumer hire business, it appears to the Director impracticable

for the applicant to comply with any requirement of regulations under subsection

(1) in a particular case, he may, by notice to the applicant direct that the

requirement be waived or varied in relation to such agreements, and subject to such

conditions (if any), as he may specify, and this Act and the regulations shall have

effect accordingly.

 

(4) The Director shall give a notice under subsection (3) only if he is satisfied that

to do so would not prejudice the interests of debtors or hirers.

 

61.—(1) A regulated agreement is not properly executed unless

(a) a document in the prescribed form itself containing all the prescribed terms

and conforming to regulations under section 60(1) is signed in the prescribed

manner both by the debtor or hirer and by or on behalf of the creditor or owner,

and

(b) the document embodies all the terms of the agreement, other than implied terms,

and

© the document is, when presented or sent to the debtor or hirer for signature, in

such a state that all its terms are readily legible.

Just back from court and had a better day today.

 

Different DJ who had a bit of savy and a young locum solicitor who tried to tell the DJ that cabot were going to type me a copy of the Credit Agreement from morgan stanleys files and rates at the time of the agreement.

 

The judge laughed it off and told the locum they have 14 days to provide a typed copy of the CA and the ledgible copy it was copied from.

 

Sounds like a tough job to me.

 

I cant believe cabot thought they could just make up any old copy and pass it as my CCA.
