    • Thanks for your responses.  I feel a little bit better now.  I really got the wind put up me when I read about 'bad character and reprehensible behaviour of non-defendant witnesses' and the press guidelines from the Independent Press Standards Organisation. court-reporting-public.pdf (ipso.co.uk) Reporting Restrictions in the Criminal Courts (July 2023) (judiciary.uk) It's a tricky one because, without going into too much detail, all of the victims are of bad character already, otherwise they never would have met the accused, and I fear that the very much tumultuous relationship I have had with the victim that connects me to this case is going to be broadcast for all to hear. The accused isn't going to be anonymous, his name and even his home address were reported in the national press in the preliminaries.    Thank 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.

i think this companey will be hard to beat .
No they won't so long as you stick with the programme and don't let them intimidate you. You have the upper hand as the last thing they will want is to go to court. Keep going - you'll find they give in soon.

Hi

shoe - is this your name on the MSE site (I'm know as Wiggynut!)

 

My date's the 6th September... not looking forward to it.

I need to find info (simple instructions) on what to do it they put a stay on it.

I know it's not suppose to happen to credit cards but I have heard from someone on the MSE site that went to court and then left 10 mins later as Monument 'stayed' it!!! grrrrr.

I'm getting confused with reading bits & pieces on these sites... anyone got a guide for dummies?

 

thanks

 

(ps: thanks Steven for the list of info on the court bundle!)

i called Thomas Hickey at barclays Litigation who are dealing with Monument claims and he told me to fax through my schedule of charges. Call him ..sounded really friendly. He said i should get a letter from him soon. Told him the date of the court etc Call him 0207 116 4523 .

I sent a copy of the bundle to Monument and he said it would be sent to him eventually. Fax him 01452 638 479.

I just got home and a letter from Barclays - monument was waiting for me - full refund - woohooo!!!! I'm posting this everywhere!

so chuffed - 22 letters ignored, phone put down on me - and I was polite! just wanted to know why they said I was under my limit when I wasn't!?!?!!? (didn't send statements for a year!)

 

my court date was for the 6th Sept - next week!! so hopefully this will happen for others - hope so.

 

good luck !

cool!

It's weird that some people are going to court and a stay is placed on their case and yet we've managed to get a refund! I'm pleased that it's all over... I faxed back the letter on Saturday and sent a hardcopy via special delivery - I didn't want it to go missing at such a crucial stage!!

 

congrats on your win!

Hi All, I Have a claim against Monument also, It was transfered to the Leeds Mercantile Court for direction last month and they didnt send a rep, the Barclays guy seemed to take it on board though and a trial date has now been set provisionaly for some date in Nov/ Dec.

 

Has anybody got any advice on how to progress now? Id obviously rather settle before hand, and wondered what the cocst situation is, my claim is for apprx £480, but wondered if I can apply for this to be sent back to small claims court to avoid the costs risk.

 

cheers Eugene
