    • There's a thread somewhere about someone sending the baillifs against Wizzair that is quite hilarious. I would love to see someone do the same to Ryanair. Question is, should you be the one to take that role. You are entitled to the £220, if your flight was from the UK. If it was TO the UK I suppose it is more of a grey area... though the airlines I know have been using £220 as standard. Not that surprising for Ryanair, the worst cheapskates in the universe, to go for the lower amount, and if you forward this to the CEO he will probably have a jolly good laugh and give his accountants a verbal bonus. After all he's the one who said and I paraphrase "F*** our customers, they'll fly with us again anyway". While we would all love to see Ryanair get wooped in court again, I have to join my fellow posters in thinking it's not worth the hassle for (hypothetically) £7 and not sure it will expedite the payment either. It's already an achievement that you got them to accept to pay.

    • 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.

I've never written to Wescot about this, at least not since Arrow took it over, but I did see them off when MBNA owned it. For the moment, I'm just going to play dumb and give Moorcroft the run around to see how heavy they get. So far on this account, I've seen off Iqor, AiG, Aegis and Wescot.

I have had the exact same letter this morning. I paid for a company called Credit Clear 2 years ago to take care of the sar request etc. I did get a copy of my agreement and CC said it was unenforceable but they are now asking for more money to act for me on a even though

I was told would never have to pay anymore. I refused to pay again but now getting worried about this action.

The account was opened in 2000! What do you think I should do?

Best thing to do Mulberry is to start your own thread on this one - you'll get all the relevant advice.

There were a couple of famous bodysnatchers in Edinburgh, many years ago - Burke and Hare.

 

They'll be employing Burke, I expect.

It's not me they're after, it's Windywoo. In reality, they would probably find some local lackey to do it and I bet whoever that turns out to be doesn't have their heart in it - and that's if it even happens at all.

i've been getting a lot of letters from DCA, I went off the rails about 18 months ago after a breakdown. I went on some what a blur which i am not proud of!

 

I took a load of pay day loans, maxed credit cards, overdrafts loans. I would say over 10,000 in total - not all at once.

 

I got my self sorted out and after 6 months i tried contacting some of them offering payment plans, a total of 9 creditors which i could spare 200 a month.

Most of them wanted more and would not stop the interest so my payments wouldn't go anywhere. I said i'll got to CAB and they said fine.

After a month or so, i went through a debt relief company and they tried again they would not freeze anything and my payments would go no where.

 

I told them to stick it and i've returned most of the post unopened. All the way through this i have been doing some research. DCA don't have the power to do anything, they can send who ever they like to the house but again they can't do anything unless informed by law.

You can revoke any invite to your property so they can be done of trespassing.

 

The biggest find was debt being sold, they act on the law of property 1925. However, they still don't have a leg to stand on and they will keep pushing you to make a new agreement with them which is then legally binding.

 

In T&C's it does state that the creditor may pass your debt to a DCA to chase this... "pass" is the key word.

For credit consumer rights act, there is no agreement between you and the purchaser of the debt. no signed contract, this does not always have to be the case but you have never agreed anything with that company or companies, no T&C's and all 3 parties need to have an interest in the debt

\what you will find on your credit report is that the original debt has been paid so they no longer hold an interest in you.

 

I have a lot of letters i have already used, if anyone would like me to post them i will

A good summary Robbo95, I think also it would be a good idea to post up your letters as it could well be use to many.

I actually had a call from Moorcroft today. I couldn't believe it - mainly because it came through on my hub phone and I've never given that number out to anyone. I refused to go through the security questions, but I did think long enough to ask the woman on the other end of the 'phone "does this mean your call is valid even if not listened to by me"? She didn't have a clue what I was talking about.

So all things considered, my wife and i have been put at a huge loss over the years, by MBNA Stealing money from our accounts under the guise of PPI Now they have sold the resulting dept to moorgate, who have employed ( i gather ) Arden, who keep phoning and which we ignore! we are still paying MBNA the token payment they accepted, What advise in view of Robbo's post above would you give ? To keep paying MBNA and not enter into an agreement with Arden? We are a bit at a loss as to the best option, if we have one! We have yet to try and claim back PPI from MBNA, The damage they did by their irrisponsible behaviour has a huge knock on effect to any small business, yet this seems to be totally disregarded. Any advise please? i would have dearly liked to have seen copies of Robbo's letters, but he appears to not have been on line for sometime! regards Ro

Ro, best advice to be honest would be to start a separate thread on this. There are plenty of people on the forum who could advise you on PPI. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them!
