    • Well, we live on the same road so it should be the same postcode. When I spoke to dpd and asked why were my neighbours' address not on the list and she said maybe they're not of the same postcode and I checked and they definitely were.
    • again a quick google search states Appeal a DVLA fine - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) i would not be appealing mind. it's only a summary charge which they rarely do court on and pass out the powerless DCA's whom are not bailiffs they have 6mts. see where they go. as you've sorn'd it will probably be nulled. dx  
    • There are a number of reasons why you may not have been issued a notice in the post within 14 days. If you were stopped by the police it may have been given verbally. In the case of speeding offences, the police may issue you with a conditional offer of a fixed penalty of 3 points and £100.00 fine by post or an offer of a speed awareness course. If the offence is considered too serious for a speed awareness course or fixed penalty you may be charged with an offence which normally occurs by way of the issue of a Single Justice Procedure Notice. If the vehicle within which the alleged offence took place was registered to another person or company there is technically no need for a notice to be issued to the driver. After the police have obtained details of the nominated the driver, they will normally send the notice to them, although there are no time limits within which they must do so (provided that the notice was received within 14 days by the registered keeper of the vehicle). In such circumstances, a person may receive a notice several months after the alleged offence too place but still be prosecuted. A Guide to a Notice of Intended Prosecution | Motoring Offence Lawyers the above copy n paste link has purely been copy n pasted here to inform you of the regs, which you could have done yourself by, as this is, a google search......... we do not ever recommend using such offered webservices! dont dx    
    • all DYL's are subject to a TRO. looking at this newish, ever increasing as old ind units have gotten removed, estate, there are only lines on one side, on the other there is a parking lane with traffic calming through which you mention. i seriously doubt your mate has any clue what he is talking about.!! its not a private housing assoc estate. so its a public council owned road. no construction co can just decide to draw their graffiti on a road. the DYLs are certainly there pre 2016 even before his home was built. now ive had a quick look to see if the main access to royal park road has signs. there is no royle park road even on your map but there is a royal barn road which leads to where you are parked royal road has a restriction sign on the pole by the fence of the electric substation jnc with gipsy lane there does not appear to be one leading in from the other end - tesco petrol station

    • 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.

wanders in in my tennis whites

 

Well I arrived half an hour early and they checked me in on their list, I saw that the HSBC barrister had already signed in, she came and found me after about 10 minutes and gave me her skeleton argument which contained the normal twaddle (but 13 pages of it lol) and a copy of Heynes v HSBC (note she had sent this to the court but not to me :rolleyes:) so I gave her my bundle which she started to furiously make notes about (oh dear I sent it to the court but not to her :D).

 

There was a 6 day case in progress in our court room but the Judge had adjourned it to hear our cases (oops barristers everywhere twiddling their thumbs)

 

We went into court (full courtroom) there were 3 other cases 2 Lloyds and one Abbey, Lloyds had sent a barrister Abbey hadn't and one of the Lloyds claimants was a no show. The Judge decided to hear the claimants in turn and then the barristers in turn so I went up first :D

 

I said as stated in my submissions I would like the stay removed but, baring in mind by the time my case got listed for hearing it would probably be the end of December early January anyway so I wouldn't be too upset if the stay remained. However I told the Judge I was very concerned that the bank was at liberty to continue with their regime of charges and threats of collection and default notices, (the further directions to accompany the stay are included in my stay appeal) and I also drew his attention to the Carlisle v Clydesdale judgment which I had included in my bundle.

 

The Lloyds Barrister asked for the appeal to be struck out for the person who didn't turn up and had managed to get the other Lloyds claimant to withdraw his appeal and the Abbey claimant basically just asked for the stay to be lifted, don't think either of them were very well informed or prepared, they didn't even know when the test case was due to be heard.

 

Next up was HSBC's barrister who said all of her reasons for opposing the lifting of the stay were in her skeleton argument and she also opposed any further directions being placed on the bank, she also stated that none were imposed in the Carlisle v Clydesdale judgment to which I added the Judge in that case has said if any measures are taken by the bank against the claimant the stay will be lifted and the case will go to hearing :) she shut up then :D.

 

The Judge asked if any costs were involved the Lloyds barrister said none but my barrister said she was very upset I had changed my submission (heart skipped a beat here, I hadn't !! :o I just beat her at her own game of giving information late lol) but would not be asking for costs (phew)

I think she was upset because I didn't actually argue for the stay to be lifted but had a very strong case for controls to be put on the bank.

 

The judge said he had to consider what we had all said and he was reserving judgment, we should all hear in 2 to 3 weeks time.

 

So I had fun in court and I don't think the Judge was opposed to what I had said but we shall see.

Lovely report Pete, thanks very much. Looks as if you were in the driving seat there, - just shows if you are prepared , usually the judge will listen, especially if you're more prepared than DG - which doesn't appear to be difficult ...........

 

Well done! and it's fingers crossed till we hear......... :D

As you know Freaky its always been my biggest gripe about the stays and it struck me last night that if the stay was lifted any listing for a hearing will only be a matter of weeks before the test case starts so its getting to the point where apeals against stays are pointless, think the Judge liked that point too :D.

Nice one buddy. :) Nice to hear of a DG barrister at a loss for words and not trying to slip a sneaky one in there...so to speak ;)

REALLY REALLY pleased for you Pete. Its good to be able to stand up there and know your stuff and also have the confidence to say it.

 

The chuffing Bar Stewards have taken £86 in charges from me this morning..........well they picked the right day. Nothing like a women with legs that wont work today and trying to get round home on a walking stick with arthritic hands that are driving me up the chuffing pole ! I look like i'm bloody river dancing with no water !

 

Straight on the phone to them and gave them hell. Result.they are giving it back to me 'as a goodwill gesture' yeh right! Nothing to do with saying my next call would be the the FOS and the local paper and the bloody police for theft thrown in eh?

As you can probably tell Im having a bad day.............sorry for the rant but I really am pleased for you. Someone needed to tell them.

 

Hugs (if the hands will bloody work)

Hey Chris - It's good to rant - get it off your chest, I bet you feel better for it.:) .....our shoulders are broad enough on this forum.. :D Spread it around and it eases I think, relieves the pressure, good safety valve.

And it made sure the bank didn't mess you around - they knew where you were coming from alright............!:eek: Scared the hell out of them........:D
