    • Thank you for posting up the results from the sar. The PCN is not compliant with the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4. Under Section 9 [2][a] they are supposed to specify the parking time. the photographs show your car in motion both entering and leaving the car park thus not parking. If you have to do a Witness Statement later should they finally take you to Court you will have to continue to state that even though you stayed there for several hours in a small car park and the difference between the ANPR times and the actual parking period may only be a matter of a few minutes  nevertheless the CEL have failed to comply with the Act by failing to specify the parking period. However it looks as if your appeal revealed you were the driver the deficient PCN will not help you as the driver. I suspect that it may have been an appeal from the pub that meant that CEL offered you partly a way out  by allowing you to claim you had made an error in registering your vehicle reg. number . This enabled them to reduce the charge to £20 despite them acknowledging that you hadn't registered at all. We have not seen the signs in the car park yet so we do not what is said on them and all the signs say the same thing. It would be unusual for a pub to have  a Permit Holders Only sign which may discourage casual motorists from stopping there. But if that is the sign then as it prohibits any one who doesn't have a permit, then it cannot form a contract with motorists though it may depend on how the signs are worded.
    • Defence and Counterclaim Claim number XXX Claimant Civil Enforcement Limited Defendant XXXXXXXXXXXXX   How much of the claim do you dispute? I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form.   Do you dispute this claim because you have already paid it? No, for other reasons.   Defence 1. The Defendant is the recorded keeper of XXXXXXX  2. It is denied that the Defendant entered into a contract with the Claimant. 3. 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 simply contracted by the landowner 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. Accordingly, it is denied that the Claimant has authority to bring this claim. 4. In any case it is denied that the Defendant broke the terms of a contract with the Claimant. 5. The Claimant is attempting double recovery by adding an additional sum not included in the original offer. 6. In a further abuse of the legal process the Claimant is claiming £50 legal representative's costs, even though they have no legal representative. 7. The Particulars of Claim is denied in its entirety. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief at all. Signed I am the Defendant - I believe that the facts stated in this form are true XXXXXXXXXXX 01/05/2024   Defendant's date of birth XXXXXXXXXX   Address to which notices about this claim can be sent to you

    • 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.

bit crap the PDF (N1) doesn't leave enough rrom to copy the claim details in, guess I'll have to hand write it now!

 

So I send this to my local courts not the bulk claim place in Nottingham (where ever)?

Should have thought of that (Friday night syndrome!).:)

 

Couple of question with the N1 sheet

 

The last section on page 1 says VALUE does this literally mean the value of the claim? Just wondering because there's the bit in the bottom right corner for the amount of the claim too.

 

And at the top there's a box that says In the then a blank space, is this for me or Court use?

 

As for the Brief details of claim section, I managed to fit the details in. I just used the basic details from the template page

 

1. The Claimant has an account XXXXXXXX with the Defendant.

2. Since DD MM YYYY the Defendant debited charges & interest in respect of purported breaches of contract.

3. Defendant is aware of all details as a list of charges has already been supplied. Another copy will be sent.

4. Claimant contends:

(a) The charges exceed the Defendant's losses caused by the breaches.

(b) The Term permitting the Defendant to levy such charges is unenforceable under the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 and at Common Law.

5. Claimant claims:

(a) Return of the amounts debited of £X,XXX.XX.

(b) Interest per S.69 County Courts Act 1984 of 8% (£XXX.XX).

6. Costs allowed by the Court.

:p you might have more luck if you send it to the court!!

 

seriously now - you only need to send that if youve filed online so they can attach details to your claim.

 

If your doing the N1 route everything goes in at once either by post or hand to your county court.

Oh gawd my humour is spreading,,,

 

Send it or take it to your local county court, its quite fun to take it cuz you can chat to the staff a bit, they tend to be very helpfull when you go see them in person, they can tell you how the land lies with bank claims at yout local court and they generaly will have a read of your N1 to make sure nothing is missed.

By the way, have you still got HSBC accounts? Just wondering because as I said earlier, I've been £85 & £100 over the past 2 months but recieved no fines for either! Normally I'd be hit with the maximumk £120 for that! Wondering if this is ralated to my letter or a change in HSBC charging policy?

 

Seems a bit odd.

Final question (I think)...

 

The 8% interest, is that on the charges as a whole? The reason I ask, is because I believe it in an annual rate chare, so I was just wondering if I have to add up the 8% per year or just on the charges as a while?

 

PS: Despite my previous claim of no longer being charged, I have just recieved a whopping £150 charge which they will take off me on the 12th July, which will mean I'll finish the month about £200 over!!!!

 

So guess I'll add it to the list.

you cant add it on if youve filed your claim. (unless you do an amendment at a cost of £35)

yes it is 8% of the whiole charge and is worked out on the spreadsheet from the date of the charge to the date you file your claim. Then you work out the daily interest & add that on as you go from the filing date to the date of settlement

Simple question,

 

Does anyone here know where I have to send my claim in the Chester area?

 

I have looked and looked and looked but I can't for the life of me find an address to send my claim to.

I think that this is the address for the court in Chester.

 

Trident House

Little St John Street

Chester Cheshire

England

CH1 1SN

The civil court does all of these:-

 

  • Civil
  • Divorce
  • Family Work
  • Adoption
  • Appeals
  • District Registry
  • Mercantile
  • Chancery
  • Technology and Construction
  • Civil Partnerhship Dissolution
  • Bankruptcy

But there's nothing on Small Claims.

 

but reading this site [http://www.netlawman.co.uk/crown-courts.php], i suggests that there is no such thing as Small Claims anymore and .

gives me Chester Crown Court as the address

OK I have a very vague question to ask people about their claims.

 

I have missed my day for my claim to goto court (by a few weeks actually as I've been soooo busy) so I got it all rpinted off and was ready to send it over the weekend, when I receieved this letter today.

 

All it says is:

 

"Further to our letter dated 28th Junewe have recieved no response from you

 

If you do not response within 7 days we will consider the matter closed

 

Your sencerely

 

Mark loker

Service Manager"

 

Now this letter might in no way be related to the claim, but I have never recieved a leter like it before from HSBC. The only snag is, I don't remember recieving any letter on the 28th (or since my initial letter stating they were looking into it), so I don't actually know what they're on about. The thing that makes me suspiious is that it's strangley vauge "further to our letter dated" no mention of what is was about or anything.

 

The obvious answer is to call them, but that will have to wait until Monday, until then I was just wondering if anyone has erecieved anything similar.

 

Guess I'm jumping the gun, but I hope it was (the 28th June letter) an offer. I already decided I'd accept anything from 75% upwards of my claim if they made an offer.

 

Anyways, if knowone does know what it's about, doesn't matter. Guess I will just have to find out on Monday.

Yes pink, just been into my branch. It was an offer and it sounds like it was for the full amount!

 

Funny how I recieved the original "we're looking into it" letter and the "7 days to respond" letter but never the actual offer.

 

I done some digging around and seems others have not recieved the actual offer (is this HSBCs new tatic?)

 

Well I've been on the Tel Banking and they said they will send it again (whether I believe them I don't know), also gonna email them for it, and send a message through I-Banking. Then gonna phone them AGAIN on Monday. Also think I'll send them a written offer quoting the reference number too.

 

Full belts and braces approach, so there's no way they can say I didn't respond.

 

Would be great to get this finished without having to goto SCC.

Just to add to this, the 08456 028006 number at the bottom of the letter I recieved is useless, spent around 20 minutes on hold through out the day and probably about £7 of credit on my hone waitiung to get through to someone!!!!

 

So think I will just hassle the Telephone banking repeatedly for the nbext few days until I get my offer letter again.

 

PS sent my own written acceptance to them today, so at least they have that.

Well I finally got a result out of HSBC, but it's a bit of a weird one!

 

Friday I finally got though to Customer Services (good luck with that one!) but was told that my letter sent accepting their offer was not enough and that I had to sign the offer letter sent 28th June or the letter sent last Tuesday, remember NEITHER OF WHICH I HAD RECEIVED!!!

 

Then suddenly about 10am after that call Friday morning I had a call back which I missed about a minute later another call which I again missed! Then a 3rd about 10mins after that which I answered, and the conversation went something like this:-

 

HSBC - "Hello, It's Charlotte from HSBC, I spoke to you earlier about your claim for refund of charges."

KPS_UK - "Oh, hello"

 

HSBC - "Hi, I just phoned to let you know that literally moments after we spoke, the system UPDATED ITSELF and I see we have now RECEIVED YOUR ACCEPTANCE FORM" (the form I myself have NEVER received!)

KPS_UK "OK"

 

HSBC - "Yes so we have received your acceptance so there's no need to send you another copy, the money will be in your account within 14 days"

 

KPS_UK - "Excellent, thanks a lot"

 

Amazing, so basically 10 minutes after asking for a 3rd opy of HSBC's offer to be sent, because I haven't received the previous 2, HSBC phone me back (3 times in about 15 minutes) to tell me they have received my acceptance form!

 

Anyway money's on it's way, so another result!!!!! :-D
