    • Just to clarify - I make use of evening legal clinics. It is not always possible to see a lawyer (they have limited time and days/week).  This means questions one has may never get answered or there's weeks between follow-ups.   To be really clear - I am representing myself; I am playing at being lawyer/ barrister - which means I take help wherever I can get it (and then research it thoroughly). Ae - a judge in a recent hearing pointed out the receiver is not part of my current proceedings - and suggested I have a separate claim v the receiver. Disclosure has presented damning evidence v the receiver  The receiver against whom I have a complaint is not part of the receiver governing body.   The receivership is in 2 names - a joint one.  My complaint is directed at whom I was told is the lead receiver.  The other named receiver IS a member of the governing body.  But he has now left the company.  And the lead receiver has retired - but is still a working consultant on my case.   All the evidence shows it was the 'lead' receiver who was doing all the  work/ the misbehaviour.   But if the appointment was 'joint' would I make a complaint against them both?    I am sure that wouldn't go down well with the other receiver who is at the beginning of his career. The law is very much against borrowers.   But the evidence against this receivership is crystal clear.   I just don't know how and to whom to complain.   The places I've tried so far don't offer much transparency       
    • Ok, noted, thanks again. I'll share details of every communication received just to make sure.
    • Yes. I sent back the PAP form stating they hadnt supplied the correct paperwork and that pdf is what they sent back
    • have you responded to the letter of claim?
    • It's probably a good idea to come back here when the next letter from them turns up.  It remains to be seen if they will act on your employer's communication or will just continue with the cycle of their daft "threatening" letters.

    • 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 vdiddy, which letter did you send?

 

If it's the request for statements (SAR letter), you wait 40 days +2 days for postage = 10th May.

 

If you mean you sent the letter requesting £xxx amount of charges to be refunded (prelim letter), then you must wait at least 14 days for them to respond, and again I suppose +2 days for postage before you mail your LBA = 12th April.

3 Active Claims:

Barclays Refund of Bank Charges (Sole account) - Applied to lift court ordered Stay

Barclays Refund of Bank Charges (Joint account) - Awaiting court date

Barclays Refund of Bank Charges (Joint account) Pre-6 yrs- LBA sent.

 

 

3 Wins :

Barclays t/a The Woolwich (Data Protection Act breach costs & compliance)

HSBC (on behalf of brother)

Settled Out of Court - £3,874.76

Alliance & Leicester (on behalf of friend)

Settled Out of Court - £723.41

Hi V

If you have sent your LBA (along with copies of your shedule) you give them 2 days postage time (hope you sent it recorded) then 14 days.

So if you have'nt heard by friday 27th april head for the court ( i would download the N1 from here http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/844-n1-claims-form-pdf.html

 

Fill in like this http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/681-4-particulars-claim-n1.html

Then about 2 o'clock have a beer and sit in the pub with a big smile on your face :D .

 

Alternatively use this http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/helpful-external-links/10-moneyclaim-start-your-county.html

I am in the middle of a claim(LBA LETTER) and they are still demanding that i pay up the negative balance in my account.I have written to Woolwich collections in Manchester advising them that my account is in dispute and instead they should cough up but they insist that i clear the overdrawn balance or they take me to court blah blah blah. What should i do?

As long as you have proof that they have received your 'in dispute' letter, I would simply focus on your claim and consider their counter 'threat' as a distraction tactic. As I understand it, they are not legally allowed to pass your account over to a DCA once it is declared as in dispute (and both parties are aware of this as you put it in writing). So I'd file their letters with everything else and avoid discussing it further on the telephone - make sure everything is in writing from now on.

Hi diddy

No dont bother with the phone call, just get yourself off down the court and file your claim :o . Then in a couple of months you will be able to enjoy your money when they pay up, cos they aint going to without filing a claim:) .

Hi the Woolwich have sent me an offer of £2233.00 from the £2977 original claim.I am debating on weather to take this offer or not.My problem is my account is £500 overdrawn due to additional charges imposed by them between the time i started claiming and now.I rang them and they said the offer includes all current charges and i am finding that a rip off.Should i tell them i will only accept their offer only when they have zerod my balance or take them to the docks?

They won't take any notice until your court date is imminent. You can then ask them to pay the additional charges, but if they won't you'll have to start over for the recovery of those or you could file an N244 and amend your claim to include the newer charges.
