    • Where are you getting this none attendance from ?
    • I have just received a PCN with CCTV from Barnet Council of my vehicle for the following traffic contravention: 50R Performing a prohibited turn no right turn. The CCTV clearly shows the full length of the car turning left into the main road. However, once in the road there was space, so it clearly shows the vehicle turning right in the main road.   My question therefore is where does the contravention start and stop? Does the contravention apply to one road or both? Do I have any grounds to appeal? Is their any evidence I can use to help with my appeal if there are grounds? Best,  Derek
    • Yes because the claim is still with them and never been allocated
    • Hi All, I am hoping for some guidance before I complete my Directions questionnaire as the wording from the defendant (DPD) has worried me. Quick outline: Booked a parcel on MyParcelDelivery, chose the courier DPD with insurance to the value of £995.00 Parcel dropped off, parcel didn't move for 7 days so I queried with MyParcelDelivery They raised an investigation with DPD. After a few weeks DPD declared it lost and MyParcelDelivery asked me to complete a claim form. Over the next few months DPD just keep telling MyParcelDelivery it was still under investigation. Eventually I had enough so sent a letter of action to MyParcelDelivery, had no reply so opened a MoneyClaim. No reply to the MoneyClaim, requested judgement no reply again and was then informed they had gone into administration. Repeated the process with DPD, again no reply to letter of action, opened a MoneyClaim afterwards and this is where I am now They have responded with a few points: 1. They reject the claim in its entirety on the basis its been entered against the wrong party, it should be against MyParcelDelivery not DPD. I expected this and have read up on the Rights of Third Parties Act 1999 but I am hesitant to pursue as they have said they want the claim stricken and if not they will continue to defend the claim and pursue me for any costs or damages incurred. 2. They have also claimed to not have received a claim from MyParcelDelivery which I am not really sure how I can prove other than the 20 emails MyParcelDelivery sent me updating me of where we were with he claim process and DPD before they went into administration. 3. DPD local who MyParcelDelivery use is a sister company to DPDgroup Uk Ltd, I raised the claim against DPDgroup Uk Ltd so they are saying are not involved  I personally believe as DPD admitted they lost my parcel and I have a relationship albeit not direct with DPD. I also received an email confirming drop off from DPD not MyParcelDelivery and I have exhausted all avenues prior to this. And is it wise to mention MyParcelDelivery went bust as they are wanting me to claim against them and not sure if mentioning I can't is a plus or not? Thanks in advance for any help  P

    • 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.

accept it as part payment but go for the rest, they're already in a sense admitting liability by offering you a payment. How are they going to defend the rest. Tell them you are going to file for judgement, tell the court when the monet actually goes in you account.

 

At least you'll have some spending money for your hols :rolleyes:

Thanks everyone, it's great to have the support of people on here!!

I will just sit back and wait until the money is in my account then and see if they do actually defend.........they only have 7 days left.

They haven't done anything yet apart from acknowledge the claim at court.

Thanks again

Hi everyone :)

Money in my account this afternoon, so they didn't waste any time.

Right I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do now?

Do I sit and wait for 30th and see if they put any defence in for the remaining £334.07 or do I have to do something now?

Hi Mack,

 

Exactly the same happened to me today!!

 

Mine was also short of what I actually claimed by £425 ish. See my thread as SSL has given me some advice in there.

 

My mcol runs out on 28th, so I am probably going to accept in part payment (once I have found out the breakdown of the money that went in today!) but let them know I will continue for the rest.

 

I think you have to let the court know too.

 

Good luck!

Hi chop,

 

Well mine is slightly different scenario as I got letter yesterday informing me what they were going to pay. I rang and said I disagreed with the amount and would continue with the claim for the rest.

They are disputing about 4 entries on my schedule, but they aren't very good at maths their amounts are wrong even if I take these away we get different totals. That may have something to do with the fact that they are paying *approximate* interest!!

Anyway the details are above, I will inform the court of the partial payment then and send a letter accepting part payment.

Any idea which letter is the correct one or do I have to adjust one?

None of them seem to fit properly lol

Hi SSL, I know you said rejection letter no. 6 but that's when the offer is from the solicitors.

My offer letter was from the bank, should I just write a letter saying thanks for partial payment and the claim will continue for rest of money (with better wording tho lol)

Hi Mackem

 

Have a bash at adapting one to suit your situation, I will be doing mine a bit later too (at least if i find out the breakdown of their payment!).

 

If you post on here I'm sure someone will come along and read it - maybe PM a mod too check it out as there isn't much time left now before judgment or if they file.

 

Good luck

You can use letter 5 or 6 but just alter it slightly to address it the Halifax.

 

Just tweak till it fits. ;)

Hi Mackem,

 

What letter did you go with in the end?

 

For me letter 5 fits but it doesn't say anything about accepting the money as a partial payment so see you in court for the rest etc?

 

Have you informed MCOL?

 

Cheers

Hi Natking , thanks!

Did they actually file a defence in your case or just an acknowledgment with the intention to defend the claim?

 

Hi Chop, I havent had time to mess about with the letters yet, unfortunately my mother is in hospital after suffering a heart atttack on monday so I'm a bit up in the air.

Will try and find time to do it today.

I didn't use MCOL, I filed at my local court, so I'm hoping I can ring them and tell them and follow it up with a letter?

I think letter 5 will be best for me too when i have a bit of a jiggle with it lol.

Hi Mackem, Really sorry to hear about your mother, hope she gets better soon.

 

i got an acknowledgement of service dated 9th may from the court so they have the 28 days to file a defence or contest it.

 

After reading your thread, i am now waiting for the post with baited breath every day, i just wish i would hear something soon.

 

Take care.

Hi Mack, really sorry to hear about your mum, hope she makes a good recovery. I have had a letter (sounds like the same as yours) offering reimbursement of charges and costs but no interest. Did you ring them?

 

Not quite sure how to word the letter yet though.

hey scottie thanks for your kind thoughts for my mum.....

 

I was actually given charges plus approx interest plus costs so mine is a bit different.

Did they say why they hadnt included the 8%?

Hi Scottiepoll, sorry I havent a clue as to what you do next.

Maybe ring thecourt and ask them about it?

Someone on here will surely have an idea though.

Fingers crossed for you
