    • My story starts with being issued a windscreen PCN on 8/3/24 which was almost immediately removed and a second  PCN was then  sent by post on 13/3/24  [deemed delivered 15/3/24] which I did not receive and had to send an sar to have that particular mess revealed later  but that is not the reason for my complaint. UKPC then sent a Keeper Liability Notice dated 12/4/24 warning me that as 28 days have now elapsed, I as keeper am now liable for the charge.  This is in direct contravention of PoFA since the keeper does not become liable to pay until the day after the original PCN is deemed to have been given which would have been 13/4/24 -a Saturday ]. Not only does it not comply with PoFA but it fails to adhere to your Code of Practice and is in breach of their agreement with the DVLA.  I have included copies of both Notices for information. You will realise the seriousness of this situation if this is standard practice from the UKPCM to all motorists or just those where windscreen tickets are involved since the Law regarding PoFA is being abused and it is unfair to misguide motorists. I await your  response which I understand will usually be within a week.
    • It probably deletes after a certain time. What a shame you did not check at the time. However I have no doubt that there was a PCN envelope under your windscreen wiper  as shown quite clearly on one of the photographs. . It would seem strange that it was placed there empty hence the reason I stated a second Notice was issued [though not necessarily sent. As I said in that letter to IPC that was not what the complaint was about and probably  IPC will ask about that at the same time if they accept you  going direct to IPC for the other matter. It is immaterial how many original PCNs were issued or not issued. You are able to show the two that you have from their sar one of which coincides with the one you received in the post and that is the one that does not agree with the date times of PoFA. Thus breaching not only the Act, but also the IPC  Code of Conduct and the ability of UKPCM to obtain data from the DVLA. So leave that part of the letter as good to go. However as it is as Dave [Thank you Dave!} pointed out that it is UKPCM and not UKPCI have amended the letter and posted it below.

    • 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.

Good luck honey, I think you're an absolute star supporting your son and neglecting yourself. Typical mum like you say! I have a funny feeling though, that your reward will come when you finally see the weight lift off your son's shoulders. And when it does, it'll be thanks to you. You're a pretty special lady, lots of luck and love, hedgey xxx :)

Couldnt agree more. Sometimes the first step is simply about being brave and feeling that youve had enough. Youve done exactly that. Challenged. And as my friend Parkvale keeps telling me. Fortune favours the brave. And that you are my friend, that you are. B R A V E. Fendy xxxx

Good morning,

 

I was so overwhelmed by the posts I've received, it really does help people this site, thank you.

 

Some brilliant news,,,,,,,,,t mobile rang me yesterday, a nice lady spoke with me for ages about this latest, almost £1400 bill. She apologised for the company not initially listening or negotiating with my son and she said if I paid £300 today (I get paid today), then the outstanding money/bill will be taken off due to the circumstances, the phone will be reconnected, she offered me a cheaper, £25 d/d per month from my bank account, but still in my sons name, a smaller tarrif with the option to top up when the 150 minutes runs out, then its sort of pay as you go till the next month limit, then she said about the default, that she hoped she could get that taken off, I then said I inist on it because if they had initially been offered by my son, more than once he tried, a monthly payment added to his d/d to clear it and they had refused point blank, she then said it takes approx 72 hours to know if they can do that, so my question is,,,,,,,,,,shall I not pay the £300 today (this will take a huuuuuge piece of my wages), until they can confirm they have removed /cancelled any default on my sons credit as I know this sounds silly but I'm really angry about that as he has always paid everything and I do feel strong about it..........

 

Sorry for rambling, but my head is racing and I'm worried I'll pay the money this morning, which will skint me but it will be worth it if to stop this.

Funny now the tide is turning against them they are starting to listern. You must do what is right for you and your circumstances. Good luck.

Personally, I would call her again, thank her for help, and say that you have been advised that this new arrangement should be put IN WRITING - when you have received it in wrting then it can all take place. Now that is what I would do, because what proof do you have that she has said any of this to you? If for any reason, they renege on what she has said, then you are back to square one - or possibly past it, as they may still continue to impose penalties and harass you for payment.

 

Just my take it on it - obviously the decision is yours.

Keep posting

Hi

Providing your son had no evidence of mental illness when he took out ppi and depending on clauses they should pay out. Also reclaiming charges good way to go although it will make the bank mad (good)

 

both my siblings are bipolar and when manic get them into finanacial mess, my sister owed over £6000 to different banks etc negociated full and final payment to all £2900. My brothers last bout of illness the bank gave him a loan even though he was obviously ill after many letters bank finally wrote it off.

 

never pay full amount,remember banks are in business to lend, it may seem personal but business is business and do not be intimidated by banks. I wish you and your son well good luck

wannagethelp,

NatWest are trying this on everyone. The choice is yours, but in my opinion hold out. It is not a huge sum and they do seem to settle these amounts quicker. Is this £1100 just charges or inclusive of interest ? http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/25716-rejecting-offers.html

Hi wannagethelp,

 

Excellent, things are really beginning to move in the right direction for you! :D

How's your son, is he feeling any better?

 

With regard to Natwest's offer, i would use the link provided by Parkvale to send a letter of rejection. The letter will say that you accept the offer in part payment only, not as full and final settlement, and that you will continue your actions to recover the full amount.

Hello again,

 

Thanks for the responses,,,,,,I'm not sure which letter would apply yet as offer letter not got here yet,,,but as soon as it does I will get typing and get a letter straight back to them,,,,

 

The £1,1xx.xx was just the charges, so should I keep going?

 

Thanks again everyone who has read my posts and am overwhelmed with the support from this site,,,,,,,feel so empowered, stronger and hopeful:)

wannagethelp,

 

Yes i think you should keep going. They have offered £600 but you can claim £1,100 + interest. Why let these people get away with the balance?

 

It might take a little longer, but i think you have already begun seen the benefit of standing up against unfair charging. I think you have done an exceptional job in addressing your sons problems so far, and can go on to get this amount back too.

 

As you already know, we'll all bend over backwards to help and assist you on CAG!

Pondfish is exactly right. It's your money taken unlawfully, which you have a legal right to claim back. Good luck.

Yes, Pondfish is right,,,,,,,I will carry on with the claim,,,,,it doesn't matter if it takes longer does it because I never ever thought I would get this far with everything, and I really don't think I would have got off first base without the tremendous support I've had on this site, so, onward and upward:)

 

I'll keep everyone posted on any updates.
