    • Just to cover yourself, you should write them a letter in response telling them that you are rejecting their offer. That they know full well that their insurance is an attempt to limit or exclude liability contrary to section 57 Consumer rights act and is a secondary contract contrary to section 72.  By the way was the offer made without prejudice or in confidence or anything? Maybe you could post up their offer here please
    • "Dear HR, I refer to my correspondence of *date* in which I challenged xxx, copy attached. Clearly this was a grievance, and yet does not seem to have been heard under the grievance procedure. I am exceptionally dismayed that this 'review'. which never took place, seems to be being used as a criteria in redundancy selection proceedings. As this is time critical, please advise asap."            
    • Just to update, received a revised offer of £75 from P2G after they got my LOC last Friday. They stated that because it was not insured this would be their final offer. Looks like we are going to court.

    • 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.

Well, managed to sneakily do my personal stuff at work yesterday and put it in the post to Boreham last night. Sent it special delivery,cost £4.30 but will be a small price to pay if I get back all my charges.

Anyway, have just checked with Royal mail online and confirmed that it has been delivered today. So the clock is ticking......

 

Is it 14 days or 14 working days before the next step (LBA) ?

 

I'm getting the hang of the jargon now lol.

 

And I need cheering up after the abject performance of my footie team last night. Am thinking of donating some of my charges to buy some new players ha ha

 

I'll keep you updated.

Suddenly gone into a panic. Couldn't get onto the spreadsheets, so did what the nice bloke at Natwest had told me to do, which was send statements with the disputed charges highlighted. Do you think this will be okay? Or will it be a loophole for Natwest to squirm out of?

 

Highlighted each charge, and put a total at the end of each page.

Suppose I should also have put a front page detailing each page total and adding it up as well. but its too late now as i posted it Monday and it was received yesterday.

Have obviously put the total charge I'm reclaiming in the accompanying letter.

 

Don't know why, but although I'm usually dead efficient and confident am suddenly having a major crisis - really don't want to have to start all over again.

 

And am already spending all my time on here instead of doing work - good job the boss is out!

Yes, have kept copies. In fact didn't send them the originals back, photocopied originals then highlighted them, so have still got everything.

 

Also, have for some strange reason known only to Natwest, received a second set of statements in the post today which are exactly the same as the first ones.

Thanks! I'm hoping it doesn't get that far, but if it goes to court, then so be it. Just hope it doesn't take forever as I'm going on holiday at the end of June - what are the chances of them coughing up by then do you think?? lol

Well now I am really annoyed.

 

Have a Current Plus account with Natwest which is in the hands of Collections. Have been paying in an agreed amount each month, and decided not to pursue the charges till I'd sorted the case on the Advantage Gold .

 

However Natwest keep basically cocking up the arrangement and as a result the odraft gets bigger. But I was still not going to do anything just yet. One case at a time I thought.

 

Then my Gold a/c went overdrawn by yesterday by £8.24, which rose to $3.24 by the time they'd added the 35 referral fee. knowingmy wages were in today, I thought okay.

 

Then i check online this morning, only to find that someone from collections, without any authority from me, had transferred the 43.24 from my Current Plus into my Gold!!!! Thus taking my Current Plus back over the limit. And they were gonna charge me for it!!! And there was absolutely no point as the Gold account was well in credit to to wages going in today.

 

After a very fraught phone call I got an apology from Collections and an assurance that this won't happen again (yeah right).

 

Anyway, I've now decided, cos I'm so annoyed at them, that I'm going to send SAR for the Current Plus as well.

 

Do you think I'm doing the right thing going for both at the same time?

Thanks Scott. Just wanted someone to hold my hand as I'm getting frazzled with all this! And decisions made with steam coming out of my ears aren't always the best ones.

 

Have now got my calm head back on and have every intention of sending the SAR letter today.

 

My new middle name is now "Organised" lol.

Hi Guys

 

just done SAR for 2nd account, all ready to go by Recorded delivery. The clock is ticking again.

 

7 days left for Natwest to reply to prelim on the first account.

 

In post today had original letter back again asking for

signature

account details

payment

 

All of which were on the original letter! And in the meantime they've already sent my statements. Twice.

 

The quest continues.........

Hi everyone

 

Well just got home and found a letter from Stuart Higley

 

Basic acknowledgement... currently investigating, will respond as soon as possible etc.

I'm really surprised as they only received my prelim last Tuesday, and I didn't expect a reply at all.

 

So should I reply to this or just wait till 14 days are up then send LBA?

 

And do you think it's worth a phone call or not?

 

Haved also sent SAR for my other account today, complete with cheque - lets see if they're as quick to send my statements...........

 

Thanks guys

Hey Wendy, I wouldn't bother replying or phoning - it's just a standard initial BOGOFF letter (although I am jealous as I didn't get a response to my prelime!!!)

 

Stick to your original timetable and send the LBA as planned - it's whether they respond to that one in time that's important really.

 

Good luck - hedgey xxx :p

Makes no diff though cos no doubt they'll still give me the runaround.

 

Shall I send you a copy of my letter with the name changed to Dear Hedgey06 so you don't feel so jealous? lol

 

I shall celebrate my bogof letter with that nice cold bottle of wine thats shouting to me from my fridge "open me....drink me" so thats what I'm gonna do very shortly. Well either that or the ironing... no contest really.

 

Cheers

yeah, fingers and toes crossed. Going on hols soon, it would be nice if Natwest provided the booze money....opps, did I say booze, of course i meant food for the kids! Actually am so skint at the mo I could do with natwest paying for the apartment as well lol.

 

Am already on the wine 5 baskets of ironing to do so might not look so bad after a few glasses, but might also be more creased than when it started.

 

Thank god for tesco and their half price wine offers!!!!!

 

Think I'll just put mu feet up and only do the ironing if the footie gets boring.

 

see ya

Hi Guys

 

14 days is up on prelim on Tuesday so am getting ready to send LBA. I didn't send the charges on a template schedule originally, as I mentioned before sent copy bank statements with the relevant charges highlighted.

 

Should I now send charges on a schedule or just send a copy of statements with highlighted bits with the LBA.

 

And I'm a bit bored at work so would it be worth a phonecall to Borehamwood saying I'm about to send LBA and asking if there's any progress?

Wendy hi.

 

I strongly suggest that you send a schedule of charges and include a claim for interest at the Nat West contractual rate. Use the spreadsheets in the library.

 

If you have only asked for the charges back you may otherwise get an offer for just that. Interest can add a lot to your claim and you are entitled to it.

 

Once you have asked for contractual you can negotiate! I wouldn't bother phoing them until your LBA has gone in.

Thanks for that.

 

Will get started on the spreadsheet charges this afternoon. Will it matter if the amount on the LBA differs from the prelim, which of course it will do if I include interest?
