    • and as expected   UK rejects mobility agreement with Europe to help young people travel and live abroad WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK Labour also rejected the possibility of an EU-wide scheme for young people a Government spokesperson said there was no interest from the UK side, adding that “free movement (for UK plebs) within the EU was ended”.
    • Yep, I agree with what you are saying, I only mentioned the governing body code of practice as a nod to the fact that I wasn't dismissing the BPA or whoever out of hand, thought that would go in my favour before a judge. I wrote a long post about the BPA CoP earlier but then deleted it because I realised I wasn't talking about points of law but a set of guidelines drawn up by one bunch of charlatans for another bunch of charlatans. It is ludicrous that the 5 minute consideration period doesn't apply if the motorist parks, such nonsense. As for legislation, I was referring to the government legislation (if it is legislation?) document which has been withdrawn. Does that stand until it has been reintroduced? In the explanatory document it is quite clear. Otherwise, how does one hold them to the consideration and grace periods? Or is that at the discretion of the judge?
    • Thank you all   JK, I agree; if they were to accept my full claim today, then the interest would be around 8-9 pounds. If I were them, I would have offered to pay the interest and said no to the 12 pounds for the letters. These have not been mentioned, which is my mistake.   As you pointed out, if the judge were to award at 4% and I did not get the letters, I would get less.   Bank, thank you. I do hear what you are saying. If I am to continue with this, then I will need to pay an additional trial fee of £59. If I win everything, then great, but if I win less the claim and court fee, then I lose out. I am not sure what the judge will think about the interest. I think we have to remember that I won the item and, therefore, did not pay a penny for it. Yes, I have had to purchase an additional one, but maybe the judge will hold this against me. I am content that this is a win. I have not signed any non-disclosure clauses, and they do not ask for this either in their offer. 
    • Are you saying that both businesses were closed? Yet you stayed there for over two hours. . If both were closed than to charge £100 is a penalty since Horizon had no legitimate interest in keeping spaces clear for the company. sake as there were no customers..

    • 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 have posted before but on someone else's thread because I couldn't find 'post new thread'. I feel pretty daft now because, obviously, I have now found it and it really wasn't that difficult. Have a lot of monkeys playing around with my brain at the moment! My earlier post was about an ATM dispute my mum is having with Nat West bank. One of the replies to my previous post asked whether or not my mum had been given an ATM dispute form and we are now wondering if she should have been offered one when she first queried two withdrawals she hadn't made but had had money debited from her account for. The bank have told her that nothing can be done because the dispute took place more than six months ago. If we can claim unfair bank charges for the previous SIX YEARS surely the ATM transactions should also be covered? My mum has been a good customer of the bank for more than fifty years and she feels they are accusing her of trying to defraud the bank of £200 which is ludicrous. Can she ask to see what the ATM actually recorded on the day her money went missing in the same way that we can demand our statements? Her bank is held in one town and, because she moved to a different county and the bank said she couldn't transfer her account to her new local branch (I don't understand why she couldn't transfer it) she wrote to her local branch AND the one which holds her account but has only had a reply from the local one. I would have thought she would receive a reply from both. I am very concerned because it is not the first mistake they have made. On the day of the disputed ATM withdrawals, she withdrew £300 (the bank say she withdrew £500!) but her branch only allows her to withdraw £250 maximum per day unless she has made an arrangement with them which she hasn't. Now they tell her that it is £500 maximum per day but she hasn't made an arrangement for this. They have also just written and told her that, if she doesn't deposit into her ISA for the year 2006/07 she will have to reactivate her account, yet she put £3000 in in January this year and has the statement to prove it. I'm concerned that she has been muddled up with another customer.

 

I'm sorry for such a long post but I can't find anyone else here that has had an ATM dispute or an ISA deposit ignored by the bank. I do hope someone is able to help. Many thanks in anticipation!

Hi there,

 

I'm not sure if i can be of a direct help but i once had a problem with my card and natwest. I made a one off payment to a car company and they abused my trust and used that card on more than one occasion to take money from my account in fact i think one of the occasions they done i even got charged! Anyway natwest were not very helpful when i raised my concerns with them and said the preverbial (?) "you should be careful when handing card details out".

 

To cut a very long story short we had to cancel the card and order a new one! That new card incidentally got sent to our old address several times until after three or four annoying calls we got it delivered to branch!

 

Good luck though. Would CCTV be an option?
