    • retailer said they'd speak to dpd on Tuesday. I don't want to screw the retailer because they were doing me a favour by fixing it for free  I hope dpd will refund them so they don't lose out. Will keep you guys posted. 
    • Well, we live on the same road so it should be the same postcode. When I spoke to dpd and asked why were my neighbours' address not on the list and she said maybe they're not of the same postcode and I checked and they definitely were. Not to mention, delivery instructions are supposed to override actual customer's address which is why they asked for instructions I thought.
    • again a quick google search states Appeal a DVLA fine - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) i would not be appealing mind. it's only a summary charge which they rarely do court on and pass out the powerless DCA's whom are not bailiffs they have 6mts. see where they go. as you've sorn'd it will probably be nulled. dx  
    • There are a number of reasons why you may not have been issued a notice in the post within 14 days. If you were stopped by the police it may have been given verbally. In the case of speeding offences, the police may issue you with a conditional offer of a fixed penalty of 3 points and £100.00 fine by post or an offer of a speed awareness course. If the offence is considered too serious for a speed awareness course or fixed penalty you may be charged with an offence which normally occurs by way of the issue of a Single Justice Procedure Notice. If the vehicle within which the alleged offence took place was registered to another person or company there is technically no need for a notice to be issued to the driver. After the police have obtained details of the nominated the driver, they will normally send the notice to them, although there are no time limits within which they must do so (provided that the notice was received within 14 days by the registered keeper of the vehicle). In such circumstances, a person may receive a notice several months after the alleged offence too place but still be prosecuted. A Guide to a Notice of Intended Prosecution | Motoring Offence Lawyers the above copy n paste link has purely been copy n pasted here to inform you of the regs, which you could have done yourself by, as this is, a google search......... we do not ever recommend using such offered webservices! dont dx

    • 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.

Tell her it's your money and you want all of it asap.

 

Ask her to send you details of how their charges are worked out so you can see if the amount she wants to deduct is fair and reasonable then you'll get back to her. (cheeky I know but it might work). :)

Well i read the report, but dont worry, it is just one judge in one court, none of the others have shown the slightest inclination to rule in favour of the banks, dont worry about it, i think that there will be an appeal on this one - hold out for your money or settle for a LITTLE bit below, dont let them bully you!

this is from Gary H

Once again....

 

This is ONLY one single small claims judgement. One single district judges interperetation. There is no precedent.

 

NatWest won a claim back in 2005 using exactly the same legal argument, in simular circumstances to this. Have they defended one since? No, they haven't. Have they paid every claim since? Yes, they have.

 

The most significant thing in all of this is the publicity it brings as the issue is in the mainstream media now whereas in 2005 it wasn't.

 

The only way Lloyds will take a lasting victory from this is if everyone panics and abandon's their claims. Don't let them win - carry on as norma

Thanks Lula

 

I'm hanging on by a thread (no pun intended) to all responses.

 

Should I wait until tomorrow to call her - I said I'd get back to her.

Can someone also advise me:

 

I read somewhere (I've read so many threads - I've been on this site for 6 months ) that when talking to them you say "Without prejudice" before participating in a conversation. Should I say this??

 

 

 

Hopefully this will explain it more for you

Cassie be patient they are trying to reduce your claim short of £1k before you go full steam ahead think what you could do with that extra money, I know it's hard but hang in there I am sure you will be glad you did.

 

Don't let them think you are desperate

call her tomorrow, your in the driving seat and just have a quick read of my new thread about the Lloyds win. There's nothing to worry about. If they are prepared to reveal their true costs then you are prepared to reduce your claim by the same amount.

Hi All

 

Well, I called her a few minutes ago.

 

She only wanted to up the offer by £50!!

 

I said there was no way I could accept that.

She went on to say "in light of the outcome of yesterday's court claim they wouldn't be offering 100%............etc.etc.

 

I told her I disagreed but I would be willing to settle for a minimum of £5000.

 

(I'm sorry Charley, I lost my bottle.)

 

She said she'd get back to me by the end of the day.

 

Cassie
