    • I have had no such luck getting the tickets cancelled. So more help would be greatly appreciated. I have debt recovery letters now. I guess I ignore these and only respond when there is court proceedings?
    • On MCOL there are 2 times the case stay is lifted. Once between filing the defence and them submitting a DQ, and then again between them submitting the DQ and the court issuing one to the defendant.   Is that normal or is there anything I should be aware of?   Thanks as always 
    • It's difficult to advise what to do because there are so many ifs and buts. In the majority of cases where a PPC start a court claim they go all the way to the final hearing. However, in a minority of cases, and by no means a tiny minority, they have no real intention of going all the way to a final hearing. They know their case is rubbish and they know it will cost them a hefty wad to send a solicitor to court (remember solicitors' costs are capped at £50 at small claims).  They pretend they are going all the way to court to intimidate the motorist into giving in.  Yes, the pretence often includes paying the hearing fee.  Yes, UKPC often do this.  And no, they haven't produced a WS (so far). I suppose it depends on how much you have spent on flights (and accommodation?) and if this is refundable v the approx £250 at stake if you lose the case.

    • 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.

Thanks for your advice both of you. I'd had a bit of trouble getting my head round the next stage - despite spending most of yesterday reading up on it all! In the end I'd managed to confuse myself totally. N1 it is then - thanks once again! :)

Completely agree about N1 although I know how tempting MCOL is (oh the power when you press that button!) I used the traditional route with Cap 1 and like Jules it was back with me and deemed served within 4 days. Not only that but Cap 1 ascknowledged by the end of the follwing week - doubt we'll se the same swift response from Abbey though. I had a letter from them today apologising for taking so long to deal with my 'complaint' and reassuring me that they will writie to me again in another 4 weeks to let me know how they are getting on, how thoughtful...!

Hi all, er, no I haven't filed N1 yet. Sort of snowed under with other things, so have to get it done this week. Had 3 nice letters from Abbey yesterday though - One offering me a GOGW payment of about a quarter of what they owe me, one offering me a super-duper loan, and the other advising me that I am 250 over my overdraft, and asking for it back!! :lol:

Does anyone think it worth me ringing the ever helpful Abbey to see if they'll offer me any more over the phone? :confused:

Blimey, the Abbey are out to impress! I only got my letters yesterday and my account has been credited with 14 miscellaneous fee refunds today! Mr Brettell is nothing but true to his word - now here's hoping he'll do the decent thing and cough up the rest of what the Abbey owe! :D

What are they like? Talk about left hand, right hand!

 

Thats a new name though - did you e-mail him and if so did you get a response? My offer came from Grace Ballantyne and its now 2 weeks on and I've still not seen hide nor hair of it. Oh and when I worked it out they actually only offered about 1/6 of my charges. So now interest has gone on plus court fees - when will they ever learn?

 

Hope your approach works....

No, didn't have his email address but his title is Senior Customer Resolution Manager in the Specialist Banking Team. What does Grace Ballatyne do? Is she more important than Mr Brettell? :rolleyes: AND it had a real signature - maybe they think I'm important - I only got a photocopied signature last time! There is an 0800 number on the letter, but I wasn't feeling brave enough. :)

Looks like all our claims are being put on hold. The banks including abbey have agreed to a test case and the FSA have allowed them to suspend dealings with all current claims until the test case has been decided.:mad:

Oh Jules! Did you have to go and spoil it? I was feeling almost cheerful this evening :rolleyes: ...

 

So now what do we do? The bit I don't quite get is Q.11 on the OFT announcement regarding current claimants -

 

'It will be for the courts to decide in relation to claims made to them' - does this mean that the courts can still deal with it? Or only if the banks haven't applied for the waiver?.

 

I'm gutted....:(
