    • Thank you very much for your letter in regard to the above mentioned shipment.  Due to the high volume of parcels coursing through the courier network each day, undergoing continuous processing and handling, certain packages may experience delays or even can get lost in the course of this journey. Please note that due to the time that has passed, this shipment has been declared as lost.  I have today processed the claim and made offers to the value of £75 as a goodwill gesture without prejudice. I do acknowledge that you have mentioned in your letter that the value was higher, however, you did not take out any protection to that amount. The protection for this shipment was £20 and we will not be increasing our goodwill offer any further.    Please log into your account online in order to accept our offer. Once accepted, our accounts department will process the claim accordingly. The claim payment will be processed and received within 7 working days.                                  In addition, a refund of the carriage fee will be processed as a separate payment and will be received within 3 working days.  If I can further assist, please feel free to contact me.   I have also just noticed that yesterday afternoon they sent me an email stating that "after my request" they have refunded the cost of shipping. I did not request the refund so will mention that in my letter as well.
    • Hi I had to leave Dubai back in 2011, during the financial crisis. And only now have I received a letter from IDRWW. Is this anything to worry about about as I have 2 years left until it’s been 15 years(statute barred in Dubai). Worried as just got a mortgage 2 years ago. Could they force me in to bankruptcy? Red lots of different threads on here. And unsure what true and what isn’t. 
    • Not that TOR will see this now he's thrown in the hand grenade. Rayner has plenty of female supporters on X, for a start.

    • Often with the Likes of Lowells/ Overdales that 'proof' doesn't stand up to scrutiny.   Think about it like a game of poker, they want to intimidate you into folding and giving up as soon as possible, and just get you to pay up and roll over, that is their business model, make you think your cards are rubbish. What they don't expect, and their business isn't set up for it, is for a defendant to find this place and to learn that they have an amazing set of cards to play. Overdales don't have an infinite number of lawyers, paralegals etc, and the time / money to spend on expensive court cases, that they are highly likely to lose, hence how hard they will try to get you to roll over.  Even to the extent of faking documents, which they need to do because the debts that they purchased were so cheap, in the first place. Nevertheless it works in most cases, most people chicken out, when they are so close to winning, and a holding defence is like slowly showing Overdales your first card, and a marker of intention that this could get tricky for them. In fact it may be,  although by no means guaranteed that it won't even go any further than that.  Even if it does, what they send you back will almost certainly have more holes than Swiss Cheese, and if with the help you receive here, you can identify those weaknesses and get the whole thing tossed in the bin.

    • 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.

Just received my statements from Lloyds and had originally requested statements for past 6 years from the date of my letter.

 

The letter they have sent with the statements states:

 

"Please find enclosed details of charges going back to the date you opened your account, or 1st September 2001, whichever date is most recent.If you do feel you need further statements, this will take longer to access our archived data. Please let me know by returning this letter in the attached pre-paid envelope and I will order them for you.

 

*Please send any remaining statements prior to 1st September 2001."

 

Looks like they are expecting people to claim further back than 6 years doesn't it. Anyway sounds too good to be true.....but will have to wait and see!!!

Dear Bankfodder

 

Please!! Please!! Please!! I am really hoping you will be able to advise us.

 

We put in an S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) for six years at the end of March 2007. Thanks to you and this excellent site we have now found out we can go back further. Can you advise us how to go about making a further request for the remainder nine years??

 

Many thanks and regards

Deeks

 

If you used the SAR template from this site you have already asked for the info for the while account history not that last six years.

 

If you used somoene elses SAR and it stated six years, you copy it and change it to say from the opening of the account up until six years ago from when you submitted your SAR.

YOu could use the templates from the library reminding them they have xx days left for complaince of your origianl SAR, if you used the template from the site then you have already asked for all your info and you are entitled to it. This letter they send allows them to argue you didnt want your data if you dont send it back sharply.

Did send the template letter from site but only requested six years info as thought that is all could claim for at time...lesson learnt.

 

The letter they sent with my INCOMPLETE statements (given as far back as Sept 01, so missing 6 months) stated if I wanted any further statements it would take longer as they are archived and "under the terms of the Data Protection Act, we are allowed up to 40 days to fulfill your request"

 

As I originally only asked for 6 years info I would like to tell them that I expect the rest of the missing data immediately as their 40 days is up or should I give them a further 14 days to send it all ??

 

Has anyone else done this??

Hi lincsman,

I also received this 'fill in and return' form from lloyds.

I returned it, with a covering letter, telling them that I specifically requested ALL info for the account history, and their use of the microfiche arguement has been received as a deliberate attempt to frustrate and delay my legal right to that information.

I gave them 7 days on receipt. Received 8 days later!

Be firm.

In bankfodder's opening post on this thread he states:

 

"In the case of the Yorkshire and Clydesdale (and presumably the Northern bank as well, as they use the same CYNthesys system)banks we would suggest that even where claimants have accepted full and final settlements or have accepted compromise settlements that they should now go back for anything outstanding on the basis that the Whistleblower disclosures show that there has been concealment and that any full and final agreements are now vitiated by that concealment."

 

I wonder if this clear concealment also be used to vitiate a refusal to comply with a SAR?

If one has written evidence from a bank that transactional data from yonks ago exists, but that it would take disproportionate effort for the bank to supply it, under your S.A.R - (Subject Access Request), would it not be simpler just to ask a Court to order the bank to supply it under an injunction?

 

It would cost a lot more, £150 or so, but clearly it would be well worth it, if that data revealed charges from many years ago, with many years contractual interest accrued.

If Bong is correct in "Taylors v Nationwide 3rd time" AND If we are now using the Whistleblower information (how solid can we assume that is) as the trigger for s32 based action, AND if the banks have steadfastly refused to justify their costs, and defend themselves in court, since the cases referred to (AND since with due diligence, deep pockets and large legal divisions, the banks COULD have found that their charges were a penalty under common law) does that not give a new degree of credence to our claims of pre 6 years?

 

Personally i don't see Whistleblower as the crux of claims for use in sec 32. read the case law thats been quoted and make your own mind up. Certainly its good for claims against Barclays but other banks will simply say it wasn't me guv.

 

There are three parts to sec 32, and they can all be bought into play.

 

Bong, myself and loads of others have reclaimed charges significantly older than 6 years already before Whistleblower.

 

With a well prepared claim and claimant it should be no bar.

 

Having said all that there are tactics for us to use to make sure we get what we want.

Hi,

I need to answer a question from Cobbetts, they have said: Witout prejudice to the non-admission set out in the foregoing paragraph, if and to the extent that the Claimant proves the allegation that the Defendant debited charges to the Claimants bank account, insofar as such charges were debited on a date or dates more than six years prior to the issue of the claim, any remedy in respect of the same, whether damages, restitution or otherwise, is barred by the operation of the Limitation Act 1980 and/or the doctrine of laches and the Defendant will apply to strike out this aspect of the claim and/or for summary judgement.

 

Can anyone tel me what they are asking for and what do I need to supply to court for proof.

Any help would be appreciated. Many Thanks

I have had a read through this thread as I have an old Halifax account with charges but all are from 1999 and 2000 so more than 6 years ago.

 

As I understand it, claiming solely for charges over 6 years is unlikely to succeed as it hasn't been established in court that the charges are unlawful and they will go to court to argue this? But claiming for older charges along with those within 6 years may well be successful because they won't actually want to go to court in case the court decides they are penalties.

 

If this is the case, would people still recommend attempting to make a claim for charges that are all 6 years+? Whilst I don't mind attending court, I would want to be fairly sure of winning!

hmm I can see how this would be more successfull but how would one guess the charges post 6 years? I guess they would have to disprove you, for example if you took your last 6 years as an average. I would like something more definate on this before I proceed with my next claim.

Hello,

 

I've just read this post and my heart lifted,,,,,,would this apply to a bank account now closed? Also, I had paid hundreds and hundreds of pounds in costs on a regular basis to NatWest over ten years ago,,,would I be able to claim them back? That would actually change my life:) its so much money

 

 

So did mine? I was with Nat.West about ten years ago. I have no idea of the account number.........but I really would enjoy having a go at them. They made my life very difficult through just being inefficient.

 

How the heck do I start?

First of all read the Frequently asked questions here

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/

DO READ THE STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS !!!!!!

As you go on, you’ll also find this very helpful:

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/site-questions-suggestions/53182-cant-find-what-youre.html

You’ll then need to start your own thread;

Go to here:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.c o.uk/forum/

 

Find the name of the Bank your action will be against.

Click on it (the name of the Bank in Bold Blue)

On that page, you will then find a label saying "Forum Tools" (just under the list of page numbers).

Click on it. It will show you some options.

Firstly, it's a good idea to subscribe to the Forum ,as you'll then recieve updates from people in similar situatioins against the same Bank. So click on Subscribe. It will ask how often you want updates (Personally I like Daily).

Once Subscibed to the Forum it will redirect you back.

Hit the same button and choose "Start new thread"

Give your Thread a title eg: yourforumname v whatever bank

(choose how often you want updating by email if anyone posts responses in your thread)

 

Then your up and running !:-)

 

Whilst your there, you might want to take some time to have a look at some of the threads by people taking action against your same Bank, very helpful. Remember, any threads you want to follow, you can either choose the thread tools button, and choose subscribe to thread, or simply whenever you make a post in a thread it will automatically subscribe you to that thread.

On the main page I've posted above, you'll also find lots of highlighted "stickies", which have lots of very informative stuff in them too.

Once your ready to start , you’ll need to do a schedule of charges to submit to the bank, try this one:

http://www.zen122856.zen.co.uk/CompoundSheet_v1.9.xls

 

Best regards and good luck

I've seen claims on here where people claimed some current "6 yrs" and previous period as well. But has anyone had a claim settled for the current 6 yrs than gone back and claimed for the earlier period? We settled with RBOS for the last 6 yrs, but wonder if there is any point looking into the earlier period. Thanks guys

I've looked through the RBOS forum, but couldn't spot any claims exactly like our situation.

Thanks Ali

Btw I am no expert just give notes based on what I have read on here and other forums/sites, plus my own experiences and investigations.

 

All ccj's now dropped off file, 2 yrs to go to clear file.

All old debts either settled or made unenforcable.
