    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. 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. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • Please provide advice on the following situation: I rented out my property to four students for 16 months until March 2024. Initially, the property was in very good condition, but now it needs extensive renovation. This includes redoing the bathroom, replacing the kitchen, removing wallpaper, and redecorating due to significant mould growth. The tenants also left their furniture on the grass, which is owned by the local authority. As a landlord, I've met all legal requirements. It seems the damage was caused by poor ventilation—windows were always closed, and heating wasn't used. There was also a bathroom leak fixed by reapplying silicone. I tried to claim insurance, but it was denied, citing tenant behaviour as the cause by looking at the photos, which isn't covered. The deposit barely covers the repair costs, or else I'll have to pursue money claims, which I've never done before and am unsure about its legal complications or costs. Any thoughts on this?

    • 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 been pursuing MBNA since January with an initial SAR and subsequent LBA, which they have not complied with. I do have another thread running on this but my last post of 3 weeks ago received no further comment.

 

They (MBNA) sent a list of transactions on my account instead of the full SAR back in February, so I sent them an LBA, which they did not reply to. When I called them about another matter (lost late payment), this whole matter came up and the girl who helped me spoke with someone in the 'correct' department and told me they were very sorry and would be sending the full SAR and returning my £10 cheque, due to their general slackness.

 

I have received nothing form them and am now going through all the charges on my account before I send them my next approach. Can someone tell me a)what this next letter should be?, b)how I can calculate compounded interest on these charges?, and c)whether I should be applying to the County Court for full settlement now?

 

I am SO annoyed with these muppets now!! I was very relaxed about it since sending the LBA but their refusal to treat this as serious is now causing me stress and I just want to 'finish them off' and get this dealt with. I refuse to accept their 'fob-offs' any longer. I have only been letting this go on so long as I have had a family death and job loss to deal with this past month. I am now ready - and angry!!

 

I am, however, confused about the whole compounded interest thing, I found that the templates available do not help with this and REALLY hope some of you guys can help me here.

 

The templates that were previously pointed out to me only cover 8% interest, probably for bank charges, and I need to be sure I am calculating things correctly so they have no more reason for further delay.

 

I look forward to getting some sound advice. I will not be back online until tomorrow so any questions cannot be answered until then.

 

Keep fighting the good fight!!!

Catherious, If you really want to get the to fully comply with your SAR then fill in an N1 http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/6971-data-protection-act-non.html

Also report them to the Information Commissioner - you can do this via their website ICO – Information Commissioner's Office

The Info Commissioner can fine them plus force compliance plus if they really want to provide the data controller (the person who should have completed your SAR) with a nice custodial sentence.

Thanks spartan, and thanks rory32 !!

 

I will download and check out the template excel file later when I have time to 'play' with it.

 

rory32, thanks for the links, but I am slightly confused about what to do with the N1 template info. Do I need to get a specific N1 form from the court, or do I simply complete a letter outlining my Particulars of Claim against MBNA?

 

Can I then lodge the claim with ANY County Court, or does it have to be the most local to my address?

 

Also, if I calculate the charges and compounded interest, should I send MBNA an estimate Request for Refund? If so, is there a template letter for this?

 

Sorry, but I am confused and stressed by all this (yet again!)

 

I will be back online later tonight to see if you have any further advice. I really appreciatre the feedback guys.

 

Many thanks!

Cath,

You need to get an N1 from the court. You can lodge the claim with (I think this is right - but I'm in Scotland so you may want someone from your neck of the woods to confirm this) any county court you wish - as you're the claimant.

You could send MBNA an estimated request for repayment and just adapt the letters in the templates library to suit. As they haven't supplied statements its really up to them to prove that this amount is incorrect.

Hope this helps......try to calm down, you'll get there eventually.

Thanks rory32!!

 

I will get on the case for an N1 form this week.

 

By the way, the spreadsheet template link that was posted by spartan was for calculating bank interest only. Any advice on where I can find a suitable template to calculate credit card interest?

 

Thanks again!!

Hi guys,

 

I have done some calculations using the spreadsheet spartan sent.

 

- Many thanks spartan!

 

I have only included the charges information - date, type and amount - and not filled in the balance information or interest specifics.

 

Using the monthly interest rate I input at the setup, this has calculated things well for me and I see no problems with the total figures (over £2K). I want to now send off a Request for Refund to MBNA tomorrow. Will this suffice? Or do I NEED to include all balance and statement info (I don't think I have ALL of this!)

 

I received MBNA's second response to my SAR a couple of days ago - same list of transactions I was sent over a month ago, NOT a complete and satisfactory response AT ALL, non-compliance FOR SURE - but I am not too bothered by that as I already intended on getting the numbers 'crunched' and sending a refund request to them, inclusive of notification that I have sent an official complaint to the Info Commisioner prior to my lodging a claim with the courts. The Info Commisioner's letter will be sent at the same time.

 

I intend to outline they have 14 days to respond, an official complaint has been sent to the IC's office and the N1 forms are completed and will be given to the courts 14 days from the date of the letter - tomorrow.

 

Any advice or guidance on the next stage would be great guys. Slightly nervous about getting this bit right. And making them pay up!!

 

These guys have really got me wound up now. I started with my initial SAR in January, sent an LBA in mid-March after their first lame response, and they have taken this long to send an incomplete SAR response AGAIN - although they did return the £10 cheque (bless them). This is after being told over the phone 3 or 4 weeks ago that I would get a complete SAR compliance from them within the week.

 

No more Mr. Nice Guy!

 

Power to the people!!

Morning guys,

 

 

As I had no reply to the last post, I thought I wuld just update that I am sending MBNA my final LBA with a spreadsheet of my calculations and a Request for Refund. Today!

 

As previously mentioned, I have not included the statement balance or payments information in my spreadsheet. Nor have I included the amount of interest charged on each statement. Whether this is completely necessary or not, I was hoping someone could advise. Alas, it seems no.

 

I am, however, of the view that it is the argument that is stronger than the 'exact' figures involved and if need be we can dispute the 'exact' amount later - in court if need be!

 

I am also sending the formal complaint to the Info Commissioner's today and have highlighted this in my LBA to MBNA. I spoke with the Info Commissioner's office and they said that they are getting SO many complaints that they are now collected and forwarding on a monthly basis.

 

It would be great to hear some feedback on my decision to post all of this, particularly my spreadsheet without the balance and interest information.

 

Have a great day guys.

 

Keep fighting the good fight!!
