    • I have a feeling you have a LOC on the way, from those lovely people at ALLIANCE PARKING. We got one a few weeks back for the same NTK date and location as yours .. 🤬

    • I do disagree with you regarding one thing - we are not very good with letters or these situations and are slow on the uptake. So far you have stood up to Excel and their threats, immediately given us the information in the sticky, done loads of reading up to educate yourselves, learnt from the mistake of outing the driver so you'll know not to do so in the future, got on to the organ grinder to try to get them to call off their dogs, etc., etc.  Good grief - we wish everyone who came here would do this!!! Most people who get these invoices sadly think they have been fined and if they don't pay a drone from Ukraine will be diverted and will fall on their home (or some such vague grand apocalyptic threat) and they fold and give in.  You haven't.  Well done. Don't worry - you won't be paying a penny.  Although it will take some time to see off this vile company.
    • Spot on!  You learn quickly. Who cares if the case gets sent to debt collectors?  They have no powers.  All the effort you will have to put in will be to open envelopes - and then spend time laughing at their daft "threats".  No stress at all!
    • I did ask them why, but seems they have more spare cash than we do .. ;-( .. I doubt their bank would even support a chargeback after a year has passed. Anyway I've constructed my first DRAFT Snotty Letter .. so here goes ..   RE: PCN 4xxxxx Dear ALLIANCE PARKING Litigation Dept, Thank you for your dubious Letter Of Claim (dated 29th April 2024) of £100 for just 2 minutes of overstay. The family rolled around on the floor in amazement of the idea you actually think they’d accept this nonsense, let alone being confused over the extra unlawful £70 you had added. Shall we raise that related VAT issue with HMRC, or perhaps the custodians of the unicorn grain silos? Apart from the serious GDPR breach you’ve made with the DVLA and your complete failure in identifying the driver, we’re dumbfounded that the PCN is still not compliant with the PoFA (2012 Schedule 4 Under Section 9.2.f) even after 12 years of pathetic trial and error. We also doubt a judge would be very impressed at your bone idleness and lack of due diligence regarding the ANPR entry / exit periods compared with actual valid parking periods. Especially with no consideration of the legally allowed grace periods and the topological nature of the Cornish landscape versus a traditional multi-storey. And don’t even get us started on the invisible signage during the ultra busy bank holiday carnage, that is otherwise known as the random parking chaos in the several unmarked over-spill fields, or indeed the tedious “frustration of contract” attempting to get a data connection to Justpark.  We suggest your clients drop this extreme foolishness or get an absolute hammering in court. We are more than ready to raise the issues with a fair minded judge, who will most likely laugh your clients out in less time than it takes to capture more useless ANPR photos. We will of course be requesting “an unreasonable costs order” under CPR 27.14.2.g and put it toward future taxis to Harlyn Bay instead.  We all look forward to your clients' deafening silence. Legal Counsel on behalf of the Vehicle Keeper.

    • 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.

HiClaim served on lloyds....paid £35.00 to amend particulars as not happy with claim. Did it wrong basically, was unsure re totals and wording etc... so amended it.However just found out today that amendment been sent back has too many words & lines on "particulars of claim". Truth is they wasnt, I stuck to wording off this site. They said it was because I included a list of charges which sent me well over the amount of word allowed etc....Im really worried. They said Lloyds have filed defence today based on orig claim. Also that its been transferred to my local court.I phoned my local court and they said I can still go ahead and amend etc once I get paperwork eg allocation questionaire etc....Im just totally lost.The account I have is -690. Lloyds tsb made a huge error on my mortgage which has left me in debt with them ever since. I just want justice to pay them off once and for all.Im claiming nearly 1500.Im worried sick. Shall I pull out.....I dont know what to do with paper work etc and am even more worried re the decision in Brum today. I dont want to be on the 9 o clock news.....!Pleas help me...Lee

Hi All,

 

Everyone in this forum will now be very unsure.

 

It might be worth reading this.

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/nationwide/90366-have-banks-just-case.html

 

As for ammending your claim. Wait till the allocation questionaire is back and you have a copy of their defence before you do anymore. Their defence will raise points of issue showing clearly what may or may not need to be changed, so hold tight till the court is in touch with you.

 

I realise that after the ruling today you will be unsure, but please do not doubt the process.

Still worried though. Dont know if claimed right amount as lloyds didnt send me statements, just lists of charges and od interest. some seem to even be duplicated unless various charges on same day for multiple dd;s failing.

 

Can I change everything on an AQ?

 

Thanks for helping me..

Hi again,

 

When you say you were not happy with the claim, I am unsure what part you would want to ammend.

 

If Lloyds sent you a list of charges etc, this should be fine to use in that as long as it states the date, the amount and the reference to what the charge is.

 

Let me know why it is you would want to ammend your claim - as in did you follow the template on the site here?

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/site-questions-suggestions/71369-getting-mcol-right.html

 

If not sit tight till the court send the Allocation Questionaire or you receive their defence. Then we can go forward knowing what the issue is as their defence will raise it if there is one.

 

It is a stressful time when newly allocated to your local court as you become unsure of what to expect. The details of your claim we can ammend and nothing is not fixable - thats why the civil procedure books are about 7,000 pages in instruction.

 

Sit tight! Wait for their defence. Then I will be happy to go through it all with you and sort out the issues so you are confident.

Oh and if i can amend it. What is an AQ exactly? What other paperwork do I need. And what is involved in a court bundle. Dont want to turn up ill prepared.

Thanks so much. I have a feeling im gonna be next on news, this is what I have done.

 

I paid for court process without really looking at wording advised on this site. I was a little naive.

 

Under particulars of claim I wrote" To reclaim unlawful bank charges amounting to ????? as they are unlawful at common law. This includes od interest of ?????. I also aim to re-claim costs.

 

Having realised my error, I was advised by court to pay for an amendment. This is were I had to complete another form N1 particulars of claim in my own handwriting. I did this and put in the particulars the correct legal terms and details. I sent this back with 35.00 but also enclosed a list of my charges. They are saying they did not accept it as too many lines and words etc.....

 

I also had to change the wording of my claim from Lloyds tsb to LLoyds TSB Bank PLC. (so may be that matters, as they can state different company)??

 

Some of my charges seem to be duplicated so I have no idea if they are or in fact I am claiming too much.......(as no statements were sent).

 

I hope this helps. Wish I could start fresh!

Hi there,

 

You can start afresh if this is what you choose, but I do believe for now, it can all be rectified.

 

When it is transferred to the local court - we can send in an application form to the court on an N244 with a change of details to make it clearer and ammend as needed. This will cost you £35 but will be well worth it.

 

If you want to start afresh you can do so by ending the claim, however at this stage, it would be a waste as it is just as simple to be able to ammend what you have begun.

 

What I would suggest - is that you follow the template from here and send off for your statements and details again from the bank to be sure. You have not indicated if this is what they have actually given you, or where you got your information from with the charges etc and the last thing you want is them challenging over amounts if you have guessed or doubled them not being sure.

 

So.................as the courts are taking some time to give dates etc and your claim has only just been transferred send off the S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) now - link here-

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/barclaycard/85351-barclaycard-r-subject-access.html#post811212

 

Follow the process. You should have the information back within 40days which is well before too much will happen and we can start back at basics, ensure the charges are right and get it all back on track.

 

Give the bank a call - just on the offchance they will speed up the process of supplying the data - try and get an email address or contact to call back. Just need to be diligent with making sure they do send them and quickly.

 

Worst case scenario - you abandon and begin again, but not just yet! Lets try and fix what has been done.

 

You will be fine honest!! Just please - follow the step above and make sure the SAR goes off again!

Chloe, I did do a subject access request. They replied by sending me printouts of just charges but they seem high. I cant check as to whether or not they are duplicated as NO STATEMENTS!! For example 1.2.05 35.00 debited 3 times on same date!!! It may have been for 3 missed dd's, i dont know?

 

Just seems duplicate charges. Also my claim has just been transferred to HULL, so will have a date soon here I'm sure. If my adding up is too wrong, surely it is up to them to work out correct charges a make an offer, afterall they have all the correct information, dont they?

 

So, if my claim is too much in court, will they strike it out or negotiate?

 

Could also do with step by step instructions on what documentation I need for court bundle.

 

Thanks for help

Lee, I've also just received a list of charges from Lloyds, but if you read the accompanying letter it says to let them know if you still want them to send the statements. You could tell them that you still want them.

 

You could always do a second claim when you have finished this one if you later find you didn't claim everything you should have.

 

Don't worry about Lloyds winning one case under very dubious circumstances, just concentrate on thinking of the thousands of cases they lost, and if you don't believe me, then read this.

just catching up with the hull peeps.....

here's a little list of what goes into the court bundle that might help - first two are easy (when you get you statements) and third is pretty easy - don't assume their defence is service charge - it might be the other one - i just know hsbc - ask caro. but this has the links for you to help you out.

 

 

a) your schedule of charges.

b) your statements showing the charges. Alternatively, the list of charges which the bank provided under your S.A.R (subject Access Request) (only send the statements with charges on them.)

c) A Statement of Evidence: (post 55 in the new strategy): New strategy for Allocation Questionaires note here: hsbc uses the service charge defence - so use the first letter in post 55 d) All the statutes and decided cases on which your claim relies. ie, UTCCR's, UCTA's, SOGA, case law, etc. For this, I'd just submit the whole of the Basic Court Bundle.

This whole thing runs to around 200 pages and should be done in triplicate: one copy for you, one for the court and one for dg – that’s 600 pages of copying – LEAVE IT UNTIL YOU KNOW FOR SURE YOU NEED IT. If an offer comes in from DG and is accepted you wouldn’t need it. Really leave it until you have to do it to meet the deadline set by the court!

good luck - i'll pop back in a couple of days to see how you are getting on - if you get a court date - i'll be there with a pinky outfit so you'll know me!
