    • The Tories election campaign is basically whatever the Daily Mail and Express write about as concerns of the 'British people'.  The latest speech by Sunak about sick note Britain is the latest. Perhaps there needs to be a discussion on the mental health crisis that is stopping a large number of people from working.  When people are having to wait for months for a Mental Health assessment and then a very long time for any therapy treatment, then that is not going to help. The problem with many politicians speeches is that they identify problems, but when it comes to solutions that are going to cost billions, plus take many years to put into place, they shy away from the practical actions that would be required. Instead they will come up with some slight tinkering actions at a cheaper cost, that won't make much difference.  There are probably  hundreds of thousands of disabled people who would like to work, but many employers won't offer them employment as they are not willing to make the reasonable adjustments to make it happen. If the Government pledged to support employers financially with the costs that would be incurred, then I am sure we would see many more disabled people in workplaces.
    • yeah the outstanding balance is correct as I was already in a payment plan with hmrc up till about a year ago when they suddenly stopped taking payments from my bank so me being naive I just left it assuming they would get back in contact to resume payments but instead I got this letter.. I am just glad it won’t show on my credit file as I have only just got it to excellent   
    • I've had a look on their site to see if there is a way to download photos, but haven't found anything. The best thing is to send them a SAR on Monday.  Invest in a 2nd class stamp and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office. That way they will have to produce the original invoice, a windscreen ticket if it exists, photos, etc.  
    • So today I’ve recieved a letter from J&P after a long time this time with forms attached to respond back about how much I can repay etc and that if I do not respond within 30 days court proceedings will apply   I had wrote to NBD bank to inform them of my new address and to resolve this matter last month, but I haven’t had any confirmation or heard back from them. Should I write to them again?
    • Not consumer credit, so won't show on credit records. Are you 100% sure the Tax Credits payment is correct ? Did you receive an overpayment letter ? If not, there is no immediate need to set up a payment plan. Contact HMRC submitting a subject access request and if there is doubt about the overpayment amount, write to ask HMRC for a breakdown calculation of any overpayment amount. Make a subject access request to HMRC - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK Find out how to ask for access to personal data that HMRC holds about you, or someone who has died.

    • 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.

Paul,

it wont get to court so no need to worry. The 8% interest is added at mcol time not yet. At this stage you are just claiming your charges back. You will however get to add the interest as they rarely full offer before mcol. Think of this as a savings account that you never knew you had with 8% interest ;) .

Just do your homework by reading threads on this site and you will find most questions you have will be answered. If not just ask and you will be answered.

paul, take a good look around the site and familiarise yourself with the process of claiming. read the faq's and as many threads as you can. we're here to help, but it's a 'self-help' site so you need to build up your confidence and know what you are doing - try and be one step ahead.

good luck

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!

Now you have sent off your lba, you might receive a letter from colin langdale saying they are looking into it, however this will be reffering to your prelim letter, you will probably get a response to your lba with a measely offer after you file with mcol. This is probably due to his workload :D . Just stick to your schedule, if you have been looking around this site for some time you should be fairly clued up already.

crafty bankers indeed! you will hear from the local judge next on what direction he will take. there may/may not be an AQ. Even if there isn't though there MAY be an allocation fee. Give the court a ring if you dont hear soon. Hopefully it wont need paying till after pay day.

then i'd ring on tues a.m. to the number on the letter and just double check -

tell them that it refers to you sending an aq and that you haven't been sent one nor have you sent one in. the reasons to double check are two, one to make sure that was the correct info for your case and sometimes if a case is allocated (even without an allocation questionaire) there is an allocation fee required - some courts have asked for one to be paid and some haven't - but it seems to be on the claimant to find out - so first find out if that info is correct and then make sure you don't owe them an aq fee.

 

 

i would think if this is all correct - you'd be a prime example of someone who would want to send the draft order for directions anyway as it would bring the goalposts forward. if you don't do one - then start the nudging as per post 1 of both the aq threads in my signature - but here's a link for doing the draft order - Is your court dispensing with the Allocation Questionnaire?(3 Viewing) (multipage.gif1 2) . you'll see when you read this link that the fee is sometimes due (within 14 days) and they don't even tell you - it's up to you to find out.

how did you determine your charges did you claim for any outside the four years they sent you? - if you got them online - you could print those out.

you only need to include the pages of statements with charges on them not all statements.
