    • They have defended the claim by saying that the job was of unsatisfactory standard and they had to call another carpenter to remedy. My husband has text messages about them losing the keys a second time and also an email. What do they hope to achieve??? Most importantly,  as far as I have seen online, now I need to wait for paperwork from the court, correct?
    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

    • 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.

Dont panic, it may just be a coincidence banks are always trying to sell insurance, mortgages, credit cards and accounts that you pay a monthly fee, you know everytime you go into branch they ask do you want a loan or to change your mortgage. I doubt you would be asked in to branch to discuss your charges - these things are dealt with at head office level! carry on with your action.

 

To access Vamp's spreadsheets (which are excellent) click on to the link. You will then need to register for a google account and activate this throught a link sent to your personal e.mail address. After that when you click on Vamp's link in the CAG you will find the spreadsheets here. Simply save the one you need as an excel file and then you can cut and paste your own info into it - it saves hours of working out how many days interest you are owed.

Hello I ve only just signed up to this site as its great to be able to talk to people going through the same thing.

I have just rang the A&L to ask them if they've recieved my chq & if there processing my statements (letter requesting them sent 26/03/07) they said not sure need to check if chq been cleared but they will send me a DATA PROTECTION FORM to be signed is this normal procedure or is there a link i can get a form to fill in & send off in the mean time thank you for any help you can give me

not sure about the form - did you use the template letter from this site? that contains all the info they would need for a DPA request. they do have 40 days to comply and when I sent for my info it arrived on the 39th day. So many of us are asking for this info they are inundated (I hope!) and also by holding out to the last minute it is another delaying tactic designed to put you off.

 

Have a read through some of the other threads about A&L you will find it useful and it will help you to understand the process. Good luck:)

hi

thanks stripeuk

Don't worry they will have to send the statements to you within 40 days - if they don't report them to the information commissioner which you can do on line.

 

I did go back as far as I could online but when I received my actual statements I found another £700! so it is worth waiting. I know it seems like a long time to get your money back but it is best to stick to the timetable and use the templates then you can't go wrong. Good luck

Hi Kate thanks for your reply,I pointed the 2008 payment part out to them but they wont accept it they insist i need the new one,but like i said it will be later in the year when i get that,i spoke to tax credits but i cant get updated one until i have my renewal pack which they are on the verge of sending,so basically ive missed out by days,and it will be months before the new claim is sorted,even though im recieving tax credits they are only provisional so dont count,im gutted but hey what can i do x

 

Im gonna see if i can borrow the money for now (how embarrassing lol)

 

Will i have to amend my forms and the amount claimed ? as 2 weeks have passed since i tried to file my claim already i just want to get it all done and dusted by rights i should have been nearing the end result by now,im just so peed off and im pregnant the stress is getting too much for me,sorry to winge just needed a good cry,

hiya

 

I am glad you got it sorted out, you will get the money back for the claim fee though - well the way I see it its not from when you issue the claim to the court that the six years goes back from (does that make sense!! prob not looks wrong the way I have worded it) its from when you first approach them. They have even updated the schedule themselves to include a charge that fell within the six years I filed mine on 5 April but schedule runs march 01 to march 07

 

take care and dont worry bout wingeing its a stressful thing we are all doing and your pregnant too
