    • Hi everyone, I have an update on my case that I’d like to share with you all.  so after submitting 371 pages in my bundle, a witness statement and skeleton argument for my court case due to take place in Manchester on June 21st I got an email from my litigator stating that hmrc have pulled out and the case is now closed!    this is the body of the letter….. This letter, which is copied to the Appellant, pursuant to Rule 17 of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Tax Chamber) Rules 2009, the Respondents gives notice to the Tribunal of their intention to not defend the above appeal.   The Respondents respectfully invite the Tribunal to allow the appeal and close its file. In lieu of the above the Respondents would respectfully ask the Tribunal to vacate the hearing scheduled for Friday 21 June 2024. We would accordingly invite the Tribunal to close its file. Obviously this is extremely good news which hasn’t sunk in that after 3 years of fighting it is over.    I do have a further fight on my hands in that the Group Action I had joined with Independent Tax that had been disbanded in November last year and I chose not to continue with them. They are trying to bill me over 5k for the work they did under that Group Action which is ludicrous bearing in mind the whole point in joining was that it would keep the cost to a minimum as it would be shared between us all. They had asked if I wanted to continue to have them represent me on an individual level which I declined, if I hadn’t, goodness knows what they would have been trying to charge me now.

    • As PM Sunak really showed his true colours at the D Day Commemorations by doing what? Oh I am the British PM lets just leave early I have better things to do and as he is called out on disrespecting all those veterans that served our country for the freedoms we have today he gives a groveling apology to little to late. He knew about this event for a long time and also knew that this is probably the last D Day Commemoration due to the age of those Veterans who gave so much for there countries freedom. Even on the day of the D Day Commemoration he still could have changed his plans As PM and stayed but choose not to showing such DISRESPECT to those Veterans, those that lost there lives and Families for the Freedoms we have today Being a Veteran myself I have never known a PM to show such disrespect what the hell was he thinking SHAME ON YOU PM SUNAK

    • 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 all

 

i have sent the first 2 letters from this site (rec del) and the time is up tomorrow.

 

To date I have not had a reply an acknowledgement or anything.

 

Do I just proceed to court action now??

 

and am I right that I use Lloyds Tsb registered address on court forms??

 

any advice must appreciated.

Well, you may have to fill in the form, but probably unlikely to see the inside of the courtroom! I think everyone feels like that when it gets to this stage, so first, you are definitely and positively not alone! And second, just keep coming back on here with any questions, and you will get all the help you need.

Don't worry jodes, it's not as bad as you think. Whether you are going to use MCOL or file and N1 you'll find all the info you need in the Bank Templates Library. Also MCOL has very good explanations of the procedures there, and if you file an N1 I think I've only ever heard good things about how helpful the staff are in court offices.

 

Good advice from Ladybird too.

i mean't to put street, sorry.

 

managed to find out where to send the charges for MCOL from looking at threads.

 

Any idea what I am to expect now, from what I understand they will file a defence and then something about AQ's??

 

not sure I understand that.

 

Will I get something through the post or will I just be ignored as Lloyds tsb have yet to answer a single letter that I have sent.

Hi

Right they have 14 days form when the claim is served (it is served about 5 days after you have filed it, so 5 days from today) and 28 days form when the claim is served to enter a defence. You will be told when both of these have happened on the MCOL website and you'll get a letter in the post.

When they defend, you will get a copy of their defence and an Allocation Questionnaire to fill in. These couple of links should help you with that:

Good luck, let us know how you get on.

Yes, they will no doubt file a defence (don't think they have ever not!) and then the court will send you an Allocation Questionnaire (AQ). This basically is so that the court can allocate a set amount of time for your case/you let them know if you are not available on certain dates etc .So that you can be prepared for this read the FAQs and Basic Guide - shout if you need help but I am also at the same stage as you although I filed an N1 (the paper based version similar to MCOL).

hi all

 

my claim was issued on the 2nd april, there is a little box at the side of my claim saying judgement - start.

 

i am really curious but daren't click on it in case i start something with it, what is it??

 

anyway a day after claim is issued we finally got the standard fob off letter from alan burgess.

 

i guess i'm just a little relieved that they eventually replied and that we wasn't being ignored, even if its not the response we wanted.

 

i suppose all we have to do is wait now.

 

no longer anxious at all now i just can't wait.

In that case deadline is 5th May. I would expect you to receive their standard defence somewhere around then, give or take a couple of days.

Are you sure its chicken pox and not 'dont want to go back to school after easter pox'
