    • I have had no such luck getting the tickets cancelled. So more help would be greatly appreciated. I have debt recovery letters now. I guess I ignore these and only respond when there is court proceedings?
    • On MCOL there are 2 times the case stay is lifted. Once between filing the defence and them submitting a DQ, and then again between them submitting the DQ and the court issuing one to the defendant.   Is that normal or is there anything I should be aware of?   Thanks as always 
    • It's difficult to advise what to do because there are so many ifs and buts. In the majority of cases where a PPC start a court claim they go all the way to the final hearing. However, in a minority of cases, and by no means a tiny minority, they have no real intention of going all the way to a final hearing. They know their case is rubbish and they know it will cost them a hefty wad to send a solicitor to court (remember solicitors' costs are capped at £50 at small claims).  They pretend they are going all the way to court to intimidate the motorist into giving in.  Yes, the pretence often includes paying the hearing fee.  Yes, UKPC often do this.  And no, they haven't produced a WS (so far). I suppose it depends on how much you have spent on flights (and accommodation?) and if this is refundable v the approx £250 at stake if you lose the case.

    • 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.

Right, so you need to submit another AQ by 7 May then as nothing has been settled, but there shouldn't be a fee for it, as you've already paid that.

Yes both you and the bank should send one, but if the court didn't send one give them a ring and check with them.

Hi maggiemay.

 

When you submit your court bundle then put all charges up to that date.

You may not be aware that you can claim beyond 6 years, please read in here.

Basic Court Bundle

 

I am not so sure this is correct. Its my understanding that unless you change your claim (can't remember the form number, but it costs £35 - non claimable), then your bundle should include everything that was mentioned in your N1 of MCOL form, and not anything extra that you want to add on.

 

 

 

When you get your charges back do they pay you all even the ones your being charged now? i am the stage where i am waiting to get a court date.Will they pay me the lot?

 

When the bank call to settle your claim (which they will at some point), mention the other charges and try to get them to refund you. If they refuse, then you will need to start the process agan and claim anything that has accrued since your last claim.

 

Best of luck

Ooh Maggie, they are some sods aren't they? I know they had said they were going to review it, but this is out of order when your account is in dispute. Can I just ask if you were struggling to keep within your overdraft limit lately, or have had many charges?

 

If not this seems like retaliatory action to me, which is against the banking code.

I think if I were you maggie, I'd open up a new basic account somewhere else, and get your benefits and any other money paid in there as quickly as possible, unless you have another account you can use. Then write to YB reminding them that the account is in dispute, and that they should not take any further action until the dispute is resolved.

 

I opened a Nat West Step account as a parachute account, but lots of banks have basic accounts, although you can't get overdrafts with them. Once your charges are repaid you can clear the YB overdraft once and for all and close the account.

I can imagine. I know it's a pain, but I was just thinking it might be worth changing banks anyway. Get YB off your back once and for all. It's up to you.

I've got a similar problem with these 'people'. They refunded my charges but paid it straight into my account, then reduced my overdraft by the amount they refunded. I only went overdrawn in the first place because of charges. I have already opened another account with a different bank and transferred everything over to that account, but I was expecting to get the refund by cheque so I could pay it in to the new account.

You need to specify how you want paying and can ask for it by cheque. They cannot impose conditions on the settlement, and that includes how they pay it.

 

Having said that, at least you no longer have the debt if it's been used to reduce the overdraft. I take it the overdraft was more than just charges robingetz.

Yeah, my overdraft consisted more than charges, but the extra money from the refund would have been better for me and I could have reduced the overdraft by a little and had the rest for myself. Now they are reducing it by £50 a month until it is paid, out of spite I think.

Phoned head office today.Asking about my overdraft.Guess what they said? Its nothing to do with us regarding your overdraft its your local branch, Who put it back on. I rang customer services explained what head office had said.She said i will put you threw to your branch.Then she came back to me.And said they are in the middle of putting your overdraft back on now.Yet they wouldnt speak to me (my branch) It was them all the time being awkward with me.They have till 7 may to pay out or write and explain to the judge why they havent settled with me.

Glad your overdraft is getting sorted Maggie. I thought it seemed odd that Head Office got involved in overdrafts.

 

Just to let you know that if you are on benefits, and need your money for living expenses etc, you can send the bank a letter of appropriation listing what you need, and they have to let you have the money, as benefits are the minimum amount of money the Government says you need to live on. I've attached a link for you here in case you ever need it.
