    • Good Evening, I've got a fairly simple question but I'll provide some context incase needed. I've pursued a company that has operations in england despite them having no official office anywhere. I've managed to find a site they operate from and the papers there have been defended so I know they operate there. They've filed a defence which is honestly the worst defence ever, and despite being required to provide their witness evidence, they have not and have completely ignored the courts and my request for copies of it. I'm therefore considering applying to strike out their defence on the grounds the defence was rubbish and that they haven't provided any evidence for the trial. However, it has a trial date set for end of june, and a civil application wouldn't get heard until a week before then, so hardly worth it. However, my local court is very good at dealing with paper applications (i.e ones that don't need hearings, and frankly I think they are literally like 1-2 days from when you submit it to when a Judge sees it. I'm wondering if I can apply to strikeout a defence without a hearing OR whether a hearing is required for a strikeout application.   Thanks
    • I have just opened another bank acc with lloyds (i have a few already) After doing some research they may have some relation to tsb or be apart of the same group will this cause me issue if my salary is paid into my lloyds account? Also, if the debts do go into default and nothing is paid then after 6 years it all goes away? As the DCAs cannot do anything? I do want to start paying in like 3/4 months or do you advise I leave it if it goes into default? again sorry for all the questions, i am just processing everything

    • 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.

Hi.....I am new to the forum and have tried to get back mybank charges from Halifax who I have had nothing but trouble with ever since joining them, and to know tht I might possibly get my charges back would be a miracle and a joy!! in the past 1 mth I have been chrged over £300.

The trouble is tht I sent the first 2 letters and considering they owe me over 2k they tried to offer £181......of course I said no. Since then I have sent another letter to say that I am going to court, but have heard nothing in the last 14 days so I have to go to court (I have received the papers) but am not sure how to fill it in. Is there special wording or do you just put the amount down? HELP

Ok, I've just sent this e-mail to DLA Piper, what do you guys think?

 

Dear Mr Denham,

I have as yet received no response to my previous e-mail and letter suggesting that this claim could be be settled for the full amount out of court, therefore I am just writing to inform you that I have filed my Allocation Questionnaire with The Court Manager at Manchester County Court in order to comply with the deadline of 23rd August. To give you some advance notice of the contents on my questionnaire, I requested that in order for the case to proceed Abbey should provide a detailed breakdown of how their charges are compiled. I would be grateful if you could forward this information to your client so that they can fully prepare.

Yours sincerely,

Abbey - £1255.12 + interest - 50% offer refused, Allocation Questionnaire returned 07/08/06 :cool:

Still not received a full offer, the deadline for the AQ was a week ago today. Can anyone offer any advice on when they'll be making a full offer? I'm seriously bored of all this now :(

God I'm bored of this now, started this back in April and still not a penny. Court date is coming up next month so one way or another this is gonna be settled soon, it's just all taking a lot longer than expected. Has anyone got any contacts at Shabbey who I can call to try and speed along this final stage?

Hi BG, I am totally bored too!! I havent even got a hearing date so your lucky, my local court decided to ask them to provide some details (they havent) so its taking ages for the wheels of justice to turn for me too. I keep saying not long now but I do wonder!! I wouldnt even bother trying to contact them, I gave up a long time ago, you hardly ever get a reply, and when you do it is a load of twaddle.
