    • Can you complete this ASAP also:    
    • 25/05/2024? That the deadline or the date of the claimform?
    • Banks have different limits above which they require Probate. So it may be Probate is not needed, although as he died with no Will that could complicate things. Is all the £28k with Virgin Money? Your wife should contact all banks who hold his money with the death certificate and ask them what they need to release the funds to her. Most banks have a central "bereavement department". Check their websites. Use that department rather than general call centre or bank branch if they have one. Nearly every bank website has a section on "what to do when a customer dies" so have a search for that. Your wife may also have to provide evidence that she is his daughter. When his wife died it sounds like they had a joint bank account so that's why her money just went across to him. But as it isn't a joint account now transfer to your wife won't be quite that simple.  
    • That explains it then. MET's fantasy is that it's a pay car park.  You're only let off paying if you are a Starbucks customer which you can't be when Starbucks is closed.  'Cos otherwise lots of people would abuse the car park facilities on the far edge of the Stansted Airport area in the middle of nowhere to ... admire the bushes?  Look at the cloudy sky? The important thing is that we have around 140 cases for this site, and MET have only tried court seven times.  Even then, they had no intention of getting as far as a hearing, they were attempting to intimidate the motorists into paying, when the Caggers defended the cases MET discontinued.
    • She's an only child and he as a brother and sister. He has no will and we have done a check on this to find out if he had left one and nothing has come up. He has savings of around 28k His sister and brother are well off so 28k is nothing to them and aren't interested in his money. This just leaves my wife/his daughter. Would this still need to go to probate there is no estate e.g house or business to sell and the amount left in his bank is just small? When his wife died they just closed her bank account and moved her money across to his account and we just assumed that once my wife has handed in the death certificate and shown evidence of who she is the same would apply to her? We don't know yet the council have only just written to us today with a guide of what to do next.

    • 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.

Is it just that it's a lottery and there's no logic behind it at all?!

Take heart, my brother started his claim against HSBC in January and has only just got a court date for August.

I have a couple of questions for you:

 

1. How long did your first claim take from start to finish?

2. How was it resolved? Out of court Settlement?

3. Has there been any mention of them closing your acct?

 

Thanks in advance

so i posted my non compliance letter at the court today as my judge is sitting tomorrow, he seems a pretty fair guy as he issued the disclosure notice in the first place.

 

has ANYONE got any ideas as to where this can go from here, my first claim was just as stressful but was very simple

Hi Christina,

sorry can't answer but I'd say its down to the Judge now. Watch out for a strike out for abuse of process. Watch the post for nice big cheque! Watch out Lloyds we're on your case!!!

Good luck

Our claim has been going on for 7mths with Lloyds - we have a court date for 22nd August and sent disclosure letters, nudge letters, threatening letters (not really but a nice thought ;) ) and have heard nothing nor have had any settlement letters. You are not alone.

Please note that I am not a legal expert and all advice given is without prejudice and is purely my opinion only.

Hi christinajanep:)

 

It took 10 days from me applying for and recieving judgment, that was from a court that is saying it's very busy (but then i suppose they all are now!)

Then another 2 weeks or so for me to get the money, but that was for payment by cheque, hopefully it would be quicker if payment was going straight into a bank account.

 

I really hope your claim is finally on the way to getting sorted out, will keep everything crossed for you:)

Excellent news! No, this won't delay the claim. If you don't hear anything by the 26th you need to hand in a N225 form to the court. I'll help you with it nearer the time, although its fairly easy anyway tbh. Only a couple of boxes to tick, etc.

Please remember to DONATE! Help CAG keep up the fight!

ok. what is the chances of this getting sorted by the 26th. do u think lloyds will comply or settle the claim by then, the reason i'm asking is i'm taking two weeks holiday next week and it would be wonderful to have it sorted by then
