    • I did, however now I dont want it. Its been six months of stress  
    • For the moment do nothing, never appeal, wait for a letter before action, ignore all the tripe they send you other than that.
    • as another of farages faragit reformatory boys shows his true colours Ian Gribbin, the party's candidate in Bexhill and Battle claimed * ' the country would be "far better" if it had "taken Hitler up on his offer of neutrality" instead of fighting the Nazis in World War Two. err tell that to the russians - who did .. * said people should  “exorcise the cult of Churchill and recognize that in both policy and military strategy, he was abysmal”. * Praised Russian president Vladimir Putin as he: "understands the bonds that create more stable societies; the hypocrisy of the West is preposterous as we stare in the face daily the enormous economic equalities created by our deluded neo liberal ideas" and "if only the West had politicians of his class".   * 'women were the "sponging gender" and should be "deprived of health care". * "Men pay 80% of tax – women spend 80% of tax revenue. On aggregate as a group you only take from society. Less complaining please from the 'sponging gender'." - Wonder what his momma thinks of that?   On being caught out, cribbin initially refused to comment before belatedly and weakly 'apologising' A Reform spokesman said the comments were “written with an eye to inconvenient perspectives and truths”. Chairman Tice said “We’re really pleased with all candidates." Leader Farage seemed to think the greens vetting OUT and suspending 20 unsuitable candidates was a 'bigger problem' than reform not only leaving **** the unsuitable in, but also being apologists for them     Reform candidate says UK should have ‘taken Hitler’s neutrality offer’ WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK He also praised Russian president Vladimir Putin and described Winston Churchill as ‘abysmal’   Reform UK candidate apologises over Hitler neutrality comments WWW.BBC.CO.UK Ian Gribbin says his grandparents were "Russian Jews fleeing persecution" and his comments were taken out of context.

    • 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.

Well I'm going to give this a go myself... we were actually trying to avoid this route, but here we are. a little background, we have altogether 4 accounts with natwest, 2 single (one each) and a joint and a savings account. i barely used mine till little over a year ago, when hsbc annoyed me enough to leave. my hubby had been using his for more than 9 years. his single account is now our joint and he opened a step account for his single acct. for the first 5 years he basically ran his account like crap, constantly getting charges etc, then i took over because it got stupid and we got back on track, until a few months ago he was made redundant and natwest basically did sweet FA to help and all they could to hinder. numerous charges etc. we wrote them a letter (which i will paste in the next post) and it was basically ignore, was returned date stamped with a slip saying we need to enclose a fee for statement release which we didn't ask for. because they didn't even bother to read the letter we decided we would take this step and try getting back all the charges.

 

 

we sent our fee on the 28th April, which they received (i sent recorded delivery) but have not heard anything since. is that normal?

 

I know it's going to be annoying and difficult for us, but we are determined.

P.s i just wanted to say here that i am slightly dyslexic and sometimes spell check doesnt catch things, so in advance... sorry :)

first letter:-

 

To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing further to a telephone conversation on the 10th March, 2007 with your call centre and again in the Chelmsford high street branch with one of your customer advisors on the 15th March, 2007.

On the 8th February 2007, my husband was made redundant from his full time employment; we then received his final pay cheque and a separate one thousand pounds. Unfortunately due to timing of funds going into the account etc a couple of direct debits were returned and this is where the main trouble in our account has started.

I am sure you can look back on your records and see that we have managed the account reasonably well- having had a few rough months due to the cut in overtime before finding out about the redundancy, but other than that we have been good customers, always crediting the account each month and paying off direct debits without fail.

On the 14th March 2007 my husband started a new job, (with a different branch of his old company) which is higher paid (a jump from XXk to XXk pa) , and I have also been offered 16 extra hours per month with my job, increasing my pay by almost an extra one hundred pounds per month. Obviously this will impact greatly on the running of our account, as we will have a higher gross monthly income, and due to a loan from our parents 2 months ago, we are now completely debt free, meaning we have much less outgoing.

It is with respect to this that I write to you to ask that from the period of employment to the date of his next pay cheque (25th March 2007) to have all the charges incurred on the account from unpaid payments refunded to our account. It is our hope that you will do this so that we may significantly reduce our overdraft on the joint account.

I hope you can understand that this period in our lives has caused us a enormous deal of stress and we hope that you, as our main bank will see fit to understand our position, and help us to reduce our overdraft and once again for us to become excellent customers.

Yours truly,

Mr and Mrs

2nd- statement release letter with some jazz...

 

Re: Data Protection Act 1998 Subject Access Request

We are disappointed we are in effect being forced to go by this route, because our previous letter (please see attached) was ignored and to our belief was not even read, as we received a reply regarding fees to release information which was not requested in the original letter.

Hi

 

They have 40 days after the SAR to send your statements. This is real days, not Natwest working days.

 

If you have online banking you would be able to get last 6 months or so from there without having to wait. Obviously if you want to go back further you'll have to get charges via the SAR.

 

Once you get statements, then do a schedule of charges and send with a Prelim letter, giving 14 days to reply. If they don't respond, which they probably won't, except for a BOGOFF letter, then send an LBA (Letter Before Action) with another 14 days. Then if still no response or offer, issue court proceedings.

 

There's template letters and schedules in the library but I'm not technical enought to post a link - sorry! I'll have to work on that one!

 

Keep going - it's your money not theirs.

 

Lots of helpful people on this site if you get stuck.
