    • Wow thats incredible. Thank you so much
    • If the purchaser denies having received it then sue P2G. If you simply don't hear anything more from the purchaser then you have the purchaser's name and address – and frankly for £48 I would go ahead and sue. As long as you have good proof of delivery then your chances of success are probably better than 95% and frankly the purchaser would probably put their hands up as they would effectively be being sued for the civil equivalent of theft. I wouldn't let it go if I were you. It would be a good exercise for you and gives you confidence the next time something comes up which is may be much more valuable
    • Thank you again Emmzzi for your insight. Not only did I do the work, but as a maths tutor delivering financial literacy workshops under the Govt Multiply project, the college were paid £400 for each student I recruited, which makes it an even bigger kick in the teeth! I spoke to Citizens Advice Bureau on Friday who advised me to go back to ACAS for advice and assistance, as ACAS are the experts in employment matters. They did also mention small claims court, as being more straightforward and less complex, but surely their solicitor would just contest this and I would lose the £80 court fee? If I did submit a claim through the small claims court, would I just leave the employment tribunal running until the outcome? The deadline for me to submit my schedule of loss is tomorrow, so I will submit today so that they cannot hold me in breach.
    • Ive just checked the tracking again and its actually out for delivery today! Anyway,  I refunded the buyer on Ebay off my own back on the 2nd of June they havent opened a case or anything like that so surely i cant take action against either the buyer or P2G/ Evri can i ? Id hope the buyer would see fit and pay but you know what people are like these days ... Once its delivered I'll send him a polite message asking for payment but i suspect there'll be no reply      
    • Thanks for this update. Let's not if you have any more difficulty – in particular if you have difficulty getting paid back from the purchaser. We can help you either against the parcel delivery courier or against the purchaser

    • 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.

Go on to the post office web site you can check. Although sometimes it takes a couple of days for it to show up. There is a number on your receipt you can ring to confirm delivery

 

Thanks i will wait a couple of days & then have a go!

Just been reading another thread & they said they can track the recorded delivery letters.

How do i do that?

Sorry never sent anything recorded delivery before!

 

Tracey, this is the Royal Mail Track & Trace Site

 

You should find a number at the bottom of the recorded delivery slip - like this

DL098622585GB (This was one of mine). Just type it in and hit the button - it will come up with information on your letter.

 

Regards.

OK finally goy an update:

Got a letter from Moorcroft stating:

''We write further to your recent letter. We can now confirm that on this occasion we are unable to provide a copy of the signed credit agreement requested. We therefore return the postal order submitted in that connection.

We are now closing this account & returning it to our client''

 

Not sure if 'hteir' client is Legal Direct or Littlewoods!!

Had a letter from littlewoods:-

 

''With reference to letter dated 13th May 2007, requesting a copy of the credit agreement.

Under sections 77 & 78 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 we are required to provide a copy of the excuted agreement (if any). On the assumption that you have signed the agreement supplied to you at the time of opening your account. We enclose a copy of our agreement, which complies with the requirements of the Consumer Credit (Cancellation Notices & Copies of Documents) Regulations 1983.

 

They are trying (& succeeding!) to blind me with legal talk.

Heres a pic of the UNSIGNED (by me) ca, it looks lile a standard photocpoy, just info, there is a seperate box at the top (not shown in pic) with my name & present address (i was at another address when i first opened the account)

Hopefully someone out there can decipher it & tell me how to respond.

Thankyou sooo much to everyone for your advice.

I have not heard from Moocroft by phone since but have received what i consider a very nasty & dodgy letter. At the top in red it says:

 

Pre-Court Division = Just a different Monkey Department

 

''We have been instructed by Littlewoods Extra Ltd to collect your overdue debt.

It is a legal requirement to send a notice of intended litigation ( They are in breach of OFT regs here threatening you with something they may not even have the authority to do ) before legal proccedings in the county court are They cannot say this again they are in breach of OFT Regulations issued. This letter fulfils this requirement even if it has not actually been read by you. What a load of CRAP

 

To prevent legal action from being taken it is essential that you settle this debt without delay. Payment should be submitted in full within 7 days or contact made with thiis office immediatly by telephone, or letter with your payment offer. Failure to contact us by 10am on 09/05/07 may result in legal proceedings being issued against you without further notice.

 

We draw your attention that is I take it this should be IF judgement & an order for repayment in full is obtained and remains unpaid enforcement of debt may be sought by one or more of the following procedures.

1. Warrant of execution by bailiffs against goods owned

2. application for attachment of earnings order with your present or future employer

3. application for a charging order on any property you may own or are purchasing under a mortgage..... ''

 

This is a SCARE letter designed to get you to ring their nasty monkeys who will pressurise you into making a payment you cannot afford.

They have a hell of a lot of legal steps to go through befor they can even attempt to bring this near a court.

To be honest its not worth the paper it's written on other than for you to report them to the OFT and Trading Standards

 

Now i have made regular payments to Littlewoods so i dont know why they have passed the debt on. Littlewoods did not notify me that they were passing the debt on, infact i spoke to them only a few weeks ago to confirm my arrangement when they asked me to contact them to see if i could increase my payments (which i couldnt/didnt)!!

 

Moorcraft said i had to contact them by 10am 0n 9/5/07 i only got the letter on Saturday 12th!! THEY ALWAYS DO THIS ITS A STANDARD PLOY

 

How do i deal with this?

My gut feeling is to ring as i'm in panic mode!

Or should i write & send a financial statement stating i cant increase payments & the CCA letter?

If i ring do i tell them i'm gonna send a CCA letter or should i keep that quite???

Should i ring Littlewoods & ask why they passed iton & why they didnt tell me?

 

Hope someone out there can help with some advice

Thanks

I could paper the walls with these letters. Read what I have highlighted in red

Are they right?

Do i need to reply?

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Hello. I've just read your thread as i'm dealing with a different DCA acting on behalf of Littlewoods.

 

As far as i'm aware, you don't need to do anything because they have not complied with your request for a true copy of the executed agreement. They've just sent a standard document, which they admit in their letter. When are the expiry dates for the CCA?

 

I'm sure some-one more experienced will clarify everything. Have you read any of the other Littlewoods threads? They seem to be very (un)popular on this site!! :oops:

I'm midway through the tunnel, but getting closer to the light.

Sorry Rory i dont understand what your saying (too many big words for me lol!)

I looked at the link but found it confusing, i've read other threads & thought i had to write to littlewoods stating they had not sent me a true copy (if they have!)

Have they sent me the proper CCA or not??

I'm guessing not, but am only guessing!

They've just passed the 12 days but not 30 days.

Tracyc - its 44 days in total - 12 + 2 days when they default, if you are paying them you can stop. then its another 30 days and they commit a criminal offence. Littlewoods have, in total, sent me 2 different types of blank agreements- they don't go away easily. It will be up to you after this period how you play it. At the moment just sit tight and don't do anything.

It's not 44 days in total.

 

The 12 + 2 days are working days (so Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays are not included). The 30 days are calender days except when the 30th day would fall on a Sunday or bank holiday, in this case it would be 31 days.

Its not actually 30 days. Its one calendar month so if they default on 28th January then they commit the offence on 28th February.

They would appear to have sent you a conforming consumer credit agreement. However, in order to pursue you they would need to produce the one that you have signed.

  • 1 month later...

Well i have an update!!

Got a letter from Littlewoods stating

''With reference to your letter i can confirm that we will not be pursuing the above account for the outstanding balance.

As the debt remains unsatisfied this will be noted on our internal file for future reference.

This information will also form part of your records at the Credit Reference Agencies where we share information.

This information will remain on your credit reference file for 6 years.

If you are charged any interest on your account (i'm not) any future interest charges will no longer be applied.''

 

Ok what does this mean in plain English????

Do i not have to pay them now?

What about legal direct who i actually pay the money to - do i have to carry on paying them?? (not heard from them at all - not even after CCA request)

do i write to legal direct & send a copy of this letter???

Any info appreciated - thanks.

Unfortunately some of the **** carry on regardless. This is when you tell them you are not the Mr X that they are looking for and they should not be talking to you oh yes and mention that you are recording the call and you are sure that te real Mr X will be interested to know they are discussing his personal business.
