    • Thanks for posting up the back of the NTK. The good news s that as it does not comply with the Protection of Freedoms Act, it means that you are not liable for the charge as the keeper as I explained in a previous post.  The PC fails for two reasons. The first is that it does not specify the period of parking. All it does is list the arrival and departure times of your car. Obviously that does not include the time taken to drive to the car parking space, manoeuvre the car into the space and later drive from the space to the exit. Nor does their times include things like getting kids disabled people out of and into the car as well as things like returning the trolley whilst still being parked. All of which can add a fair bit of time to the parking period which can then be subtracted from their ANPR times and makes your actual parking time a lot shorter than 118 minutes they seem to think it is. The second reason is that they failed to ask the keeper to pay Schedule 4 Section 9 [2][e]  (e)state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper— (i)to pay the unpaid parking charges You as keeper are now in the clear which is a good reason for you to contact Sainsbury  stating that you are being pursued as the keeper when you are not liable under the Act as well as the oher things I suggested in my previous post. If you don't get it cancelled with Sainsbury this could drag on for months with endless letters unlawfully pushing the price up to scare you into paying.  
    • Brilliant! That's great to hear and honestly pleased I'm wrong, my advice was out of concern. I checked some of your previous posts last night and you've been giving great advice to others at times. Bringing a claim can be serious (counter-claims etc) and it didn't appear you were knowledgeable based on posts so far. Far from an expert myself, just interested and will try to help. I'll sit on the sidelines, best of luck with the claim!
    • Thank you so much for the advice  I will try and up my savings to £500 for the next 6 months. Although I do still have an uphill battle, I feel more able to deal with it.  I hope my experience with the cifas marker helps someone else who finds themselves in that quite horrible situation. It is a huge weight off my shoulders getting it removed.

    • 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 sent SAR to abbey at beginning of March and received all my statements for the last six years at the end of March. Sent letter requesting repayment of charges early April, after being given the runaround I have finally received a letter saying that the charges are lawful and they will not be refunding anything.

 

I am really annoyed about this and decided that I would take this further, i.e court. The thing is when I checked my statements, they actually owe me far more than I was claiming.

 

My question is do I send them the LBA for the new amount and give them 14 days to reply (I know they will ask for another 8 weeks!) before I start the court action.

 

Many thanks

 

Lorna

no dont add the 8% as they will definately know that you are a bit dubious about the claim. You can only add that once you have issued the claim in the court. Have a really good read of some posts to get the gist of what happens and the correct procedures. My first claim might be a good start as its quite detailed as I learnt through doing and asked lots of questions. http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/abbey-bank/10576-noobrider-abbey.html?highlight=noobrider

Just had the normal letter from Abbey i.e. we need another 4 weeks to look at your charges, I've decided to carry on with the next step and use my time table not theirs. Went into Abbey yesterday to close our account, only to be told that they were takinganother £50 in charges, carry on said I, I will just add this onto my list of charges to be claimed. Needless to say they were not happy.

Today received a nice letter from Abbey inviting me into the branch so they can talk to me about saving money. Felt like ringing and saying pay me back the £1650 you took from me and I will have saved £1650. LBA ready to go on 11 June

Today I went to the court and put in my N1. It feels great, when I get my money I am going to treat my son to a holiday as he has just been told he's off to Iraq for the second time.

Hi Lorn

 

Sorry to hear about your son going back to Iraq - worrying times for you and him I guess.

 

Anyway, no, you do not need to start on the bundle yet - may not have to do one at all with any luck!

 

It's a waiting game now - Abbey have until 16th to respond to me, so we are practically at the same stage, along with a LOT of others. Me hoping they are so snowed under that they will not respond to all the Claims, and we can go for automatic judgement under default - if only!!

 

I will keep an eye on your thread for any developments, and let you know whats happening on mine if you like.

 

Very best regards

 

Jo xx

Cornwall is a lovely place to live, I live right by the sea. Antime you are down come in for a cuppa, we are very friendly down here.

Hi Lorn

 

Oh that is so nice of you! I will be in South Somerset visiting my Dad with my two boys sometime in August, so you never know!

 

Mine are still only young, 9 and 10, but I worry all day, every day about them, so I sort of know how you feel. Eldest went on a day-trip to France yesterday and I couldn't concentrate on anything all day, wondering if he was okay!

 

Thanks again for your wonderful offer - I know how friendly it is down there, since Dad moved, and one day I will swap this dump for somewhere better.........I hope!

 

Very best regards

update, Oh no abbey had said that they are defending all charges. They have 28 days, is that 28 working days or 28 calendar days. What do I do next

 

Lorn

28 calendar days from when you submitted your claim form N1.

 

Relax, just standard practice.

 

Get ready for the next phase which is the AQ (Allocation Questionnaire) bit. This will happen automatically, so don't fret there.

 

However if you do not receive the defence, check with the Court to see if they have had one filed a day after the 28 days is up. You will know the official date when the 28 days is up as the the court will write to you shortly telling you when that is.

 

If they haven't received one then file a Judgement By Default ASAP as in there and then.

Update, Abbey filed aknowledgement of service on the 9th July, that is two weeks after I filed my N1. The letter from the court says they have 28 days from the date of service to file a defence. I thought it was 28 days from when I filed my N1. Which date is correct?

The 28 days starts from (usually) 2-5 days after you fle your N1 in Court. The letter from the Court will tell you when the dste od service is. ;)
