    • Thanks for this! I'm still not clear if I'm facing more than 6 points on my license though. Can you explain any further please? When I accept the 2nd speeding ticket, will they just charge me £100 and 3 points, or will they be more severe concenquences since that offense took place the following day of the 1st offense? Similarly, when I accept the 3rd offense, will they look at my record or just charge me with the £100 fine and 3 points?
    • Yes of course. That's why it says cc:: BIg Motoring World at the bottom. Don't imagine that this solves the issue. It doesn't. He not have to force the finance company and big motoring world to accept the rejection to give your money back. I suggest that you get the letter off tomorrow. And let us know what you hear but on Friday you should then send a threat to the finance company.   Have a look what I have said here about your options and read the whole thread as well.  
    • Been perusing the actual figures on the polls above wondering where the '16% claimed for deform comes from? I understand that there are 'weighted' end results based on secret calculations ...   Probably going to repeat this later, but remember that the ukip/brexit/reform/deform party has ALWAYS had poll speculation FAR better than their actual  performance at elections - by large margins. SO: The labor and Tory votes come largely from simply the people who say they will vote for them - sorted Lab 43% Tory 20%, with maybe another small 1-2% coming from the weightings of the 'not sures' Greens largely get what is declared from 'other' , although with another declared green bit from the 'pressed' question   So as the share of the voting displayed in 'other' granted to reform/deform is around 11%, where does the '16% too often being reported come from? Seems that reform has been granted as beneficiary of effectively ALL the don't knows and wont says, who when pressed didn't actually declare for someone else ... effectively adding 40%+ to their reported polling % - rather strange given their consistent under-performance compared to polling - or perhaps that is the cause of the higher rating eh?   Now I admit the possibility (probability?) of wingers being ashamed of declaring their support for the yuckey lemon end of the spectrum ... but surely  that should affect the 'Torys as well? Maybe the statisticians have simply weighted in that deform wingers are simply more likely to lie?   But - without 'weightings' and assumptions that faragits will get everything that isnt declared as a definite and unequivocal 'not that Piers Morgan' - reform is on around 11% it seems.   Add to that the history of polling a lot less than the hype - and the simple fact that faragit wingers seem to be spread across the country (presumably skulking in their moms spare room despite being 45+) and greens and lib dems seem to be community minded - I think two seats will be an epic result for farage. Hardly the opposition - far more raving wingnut party.   and importantly - Has farage got a home in clacton yet?

    • Please go back and read my message posted at 10:27 this morning @jk2054. I didn't say that I wasn't going to provide documents, only that I will upload them to an online repo that I am in control of, and that I would share links to these.

    • 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.

yes, it says that in that link they gave you - if they were to turn up and ask for a stay and hadn't notified you that they were going to do it - then you point it out to the judge.

 

there's been some great reading on here lately -

take a look at these -

 

OFT v Banks - **Don't panic!!!**

 

Found this in new posts - very encouraging

 

 

welshb, someone said if you put it on a larger font the settled claims comes out clearer.

sha I'm Totally confused

I read a thread earlier today where someone conacted DG and they were told that HSBC has instructed DG not to make any more offers and to ask for a stay in every case.

 

I think the best plan is as freaky, lattie and co says and carry on as normal

it's like this - if you haven't yet filed in court - you'll get a letter saying they won't even look into it - so - as bookworm suggests - just go ahead and file to be in line for a payout later.

 

if you are waiting for a specific court date - we think that it will proceed to an offer or to court where dg will ask for a stay - but they have missed deadlines and court directions and the judge will not take kindly to this - so go prepared - with a copy of the letter what letter????

 

sorry, meant to post this one to read as well.....Application for removal of staty

 

so, that should help. so that's everybody at the very early stages and at the later stages - i think it is the poor peeps in the middle - like just at the end of the 28 days who will get theirs stayed until after the test case. i think all three of you par, welshb, manicb, - all with court dates coming up soon - should keep doing exactly as you were doing before - and write that letter to take with you - but hopefully you'll get offers.

and yes, i read what dg said as well - but i still think what i've just written.

Here is a copy of my letter to DG. You can adapt it to suit your needs and add a huuuuge nudge to it:-

 

DG Solicitors

12 Calthorpe Road

Edgbaston

Birmingham

Date

Re: xxxxxxxxxxx- v - HSBC

account no: xxxxxxxx

claim no: xxxxxxxxx, Filing date:xx.xx.xx.

I refer to our preliminary hearing in this matter which is scheduled for the xx.xx.2007 at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx County Court.

 

Although this matter is listed for further directions and preliminary hearing and papers have not been requested at this stage, I am enclosing with this letter the papers that I will be presenting and evidence that I will be calling upon at this and any future hearing.

With kind regards,

Yours sincerely,

OMG - just rang the court to get a bit of extra info and the man in listings told me that all the cases were with someone who is going through them all ready for the 14th (so ours must still be going ahead?).

He said there are 800 to be sorted!!!

nearly fell of the chair........... thats gone up from a couple of weeks ago

Just got off the phone to Cardiff Court and the woman I spoke to said the same.... all to be stayed :( . She then went on to say that it would be pointless sending anything in, although we could appeal against the stay/judgment but I would have to state why my case stands out more than any other>

Now totally confused about what to do..... I printed out the letter against the stay.

Any suggestions as whats next

Thanks Sha

Hi Sha Very frustrating all this. I think we should object to the stay. I am going to send the letter in. In fact when I spoke to the court this morning they told me everything was going to proceed as normal. I don't think we should accept this without a fight.

I agree I'm starting to copy my letter now, I'm also going to send evidence that I've done everything possible to bring this case to a conclusion, at one stage I offered DG the opertunity to offer me a reduced settlemement but they saw fit to ignore all my efforts and corrrespondence, they should not be rewarded for this unprofessional conduct

Parian, I had the same issue with DG. My claim was stayed from 22 May until July 8th - in order for us to agree an offer.

 

In that time I sent 3 letters (recorded) and a number of emails.

 

I did not get a single reply to any of it.

 

I have now been given a hearing date for 28th Aug. although this may get Stayed because of the OFT case.

 

They seem to be able to play the system the way they want.

 

Kev.

Parian, Shelley... We should keep in touch....it is a travesty that they are able to further delay things... . .Are you both in Cardiff? How about a meeting to discuss tactics on Sat 11th ... they cannot ignore hundreds of us objecting to stays surely ??

As our date is only just over a week away - I was hoping the judge might just carry on for this month as its so close.

Ian, what will you be sending in with your "stay" letter? all the correspondence you have sent or what?

Thanks

Hi Sha

 

I am going to send all the correspodnce sent to DG to the judge along with a letter requesting that the Stay be lifted but not until I have had confirmation from the courts.:(

 

Maybe we could all request a special hearing of some sort from Judge Hickinbottom?? How can they get away with wasting so much court time and not get penalised! Very unfair I think!!:mad:

 

Manic.
