    • Your case shows the idiocy of employing a solicitor to do things you could easily do yourself. Had Countryside dealt with their own case they would have entered judgement on 4 June and there would have been no way back for you. But they thought they were clever by running to Rachael and Sean of BW Legal for a more "professional" (aye, right) service.  These dodgy solicitors can only make money on private parking cases by doing everything on the ultra cheap and certainly cant check the judgement date for every single separate case. Ho!  Ho!  Ho! Anyway, glad you got the defence filed OK. The next stage is that the central bulk court will send out a simple form called a Directions Questionnaire to you and to Countrywide which is part of the allocations process to your local court.  If you read this short thread you will see all the stages of the court process  https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/topic/406892-highview-parking-anpr-pcn-claimform-urban-exchange-manchester-claim-dismissed/#comments
    • It is already trespass, nothing further needed to make out trespass. Not sure where ‘interference with goods’ helps you / how you’d bring a claim for that that stops them parking there.
    • Thanks Dx,    For some further information, the holiday was booked as a package holiday for 2. One of the 2 had to be changed, and changing costs £700 for a new flight as "tickets had been issued and they cant do a name change". I cant quite figure out how compensation works for things when it comes to package holidays.    From what I can tell  - The plane was due to land in Turks and Caicos to drop off passengers, something happened during descent, resulting in technical fault.  - The rest of the original flight from Turks & Caicos -> Montego Bay was cancelled  - A New flight was put on today, which was then delayed by 1.5hrs aswell  - Hotel was provided for the night after much hassle.  - 1.5 days, 2 evenings of holiday lost  If I understand correctly, since the original flight (LHR -> Turks -> Montego Bay) was cancelled, they are both entitled to a refund on that full flight? I can't quite work out if they are only entitled to a refund for the equivalent of Turks -> Montego Bay, or for the full LHR->Turks->Montego Bay, since it was issued as one ticket/all Virgin, and they should have arrived yesterday..?)  I can't work out how to get the cost of that compensation, or whether its a set figure, and how the loss of days of holiday is factored in   I am aware:  If you received less than 14 days’ notice of the cancellation, you are generally due compensation, awarded in pounds or euros depending on where your flight was due to depart from, according to the following scale: £220 / €250 for all flights of 1,500km or less (e.g. Glasgow to Amsterdam); £350 / €400 for all flights between 1,500km and 3,500km (e.g. East Midlands to Marrakech); £520 / €600 for all other flights (e.g. London to New York). Compensation will be reduced by 50% if the arrival time of the replacement flight doesn’t exceed the arrival time of the original flight by: two hours for flights of 1,500km or less; three hours for flights between 1,500km and 3,500km; four hours for all other flights. So I "think" its £520pp for the flight part as compensation (7500km)... but some sites say its a full refund for the flight... is it both?  Thanks,  Ryan

    • Funny. But not sure I should ! Wondering if I could place pots and plants - which a) would look nice and b) would it then be trespass and interference of goods?

    • 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.

Hi,

 

I requested an original copy of the default notice sent to me by HFC Bank Ltd.

I did not receive on due to them not changing my home address when advised.

 

They have sent me a copy of what looks to be their template of a default notice.

 

The notice did not have any of my account details, my name, address, date, amount owed or paid.

 

Where these were meant to be are xxxx's or left blank.

 

What detail should there be on these?

 

If this is what they sent and can not send anything else can that defult be removed as it does not justify why they have put it on my credit history?

 

ANy info will help!

I have read this but it does not answer my question.

 

The bank has actually sent me a default notice (with Copy written at the top in hand writting) that actuall has xxxxx's and blanks where my details should have been.

 

The link you gave is what i actually used to get this done, but does not mention what should be on the notice they send to me.

 

Any further help would be good!

Well if they blank out your details or put xxxx it probably isn't properly executed. It may be worth popping down to your local CAB or TS. They may be able to offer you more info.

from the OFT Guide out of date now due to the cca 2006 main update to this number of days increased to 14

 

 

Default notice – form and content

The following information must be contained in the default notice:

i a description of the agreement sufficient to identify it

ii the name and a postal address of the trader

iii the name and a postal address of the customer

iv a statement that the notice is a default notice served under section 81(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974

v details of the part or parts of the agreement which, according to the trader, the customer has breached

vi details of the nature of the alleged breach of the agreement specifying clearly the matters complained of

vii if it is possible for the customer to put the matter right, details of what he is required to do in order to achieve this, and the date before which he is required to do so. This date must be at least seven days after the date of service of the notice, or

viii if it is not possible to put the matter right (for example, where goods have been damaged beyond repair), details of the amount (if any) required to be paid as compensation and the date before which it should be paid. This date must be at least seven days after the date of service of the notice.

 

 

Point to note

The date of service of the notice is the date on which the trader either delivers or sends the notice by post to the customer. Where a notice is sent by post, allowance should be made for delivery time when calculating the date by which the breach must be remedied.

 

 

 

Where any action is required under vii or viii above, the following statement must appear immediately after:

 

 

 

IF THE ACTION REQUIRED BY THIS NOTICE IS TAKEN BEFORE THE DATE SHOWN NO FURTHER ENFORCEMENT ACTION WILL BE TAKEN IN RESPECT OF THE BREACH.

 

 

The following statement must appear immediately before the specification of the action to be taken by the trader:

 

IF YOU DO NOT TAKE THE ACTION REQUIRED BY THIS NOTICE BEFORE THE DATE SHOWN THEN THE FURTHER ACTION SET OUT BELOW MAY BE TAKEN AGAINST YOU [OR A SURETY]

 

The words in square brackets are to be omitted or deleted if it is not intended to take any action to enforce any security.

I phoned them yesturday and they went through what pford wrote above. They said the copy of the default notice was nonesense, but if it went all the way to court there is nothing stopping the company producing the real one....but its all about what they sent me in the end.

 

Also even though the notice is blank i have to make sure my account is not in debt....so i am finishing off that account (long story about moving address but company not updating everything).

 

Once that is done i will start getting it removed by stating they could not provide a default notice to satisfy why they have placed one on any address i have lived at and that it should be removed. I would alos look into the possibility of attacking them over the data protection act due to them not keeping my records correct and up to date.

 

i let you all know.

After re-reading the letter frmo HF they have stated that by law they only have to give an example of the default notice they would have sent and not the actual (or copy of) default notice!? Is this true?

I can't find the bit about default notice and what needs to be on it, or what they need to supply if i ask for it anywhere in the CCA 1974....

 

Any help will be good as i'm due to start challenging them to take this off my reports!

Cool,

 

sorry i still dont have an answer, and before i write back to the company i want to make sure i am in the right about what i am contacting them about.

 

Does the CCA state that they must send me the true copy of the default notice....or is there something somewhere that states they only need to provide a copy/template as an example of what they sent?

 

that is my main question.

 

If they need to send the true signed copy then great!! i can write back to them and give them hell.....if they can give me a template then oh crap!

  • 2 weeks later...

Subscribing, have asked Next for a true copy of default notice and they have sent me a copy but it shows my postcode completely wrong, it's somewhere about 80 miles away. When I spoke to them about this they told me they do not keep copies and this is a reproduced copy, it has COPY stamped on the top, surely this can't be right.

Rory32, this is all well and good that the CCA1974 states this but we are not talking about the original first default notice.

 

The above is about when we have asked for them to provide the defaults again (in my case i never got the original) and the copy they have sent is blank.

 

They stated in their letter that the law says they only have to provide a template, as such, in this circumstance and not the true copy of the default notice.

 

Question here is, when we request a "true and signed copy of any default notice" do they have to send an actual copy of what they sent, or can it be any wossname default notice?

 

Regards

Nye, in answer to your question no they can not just send you a template off their computer with a copy stamp on it. Default notices require to conform to the CCA1974 and the Consumer Credit (Enforcement, Default and Termination Notices) Regulations 1993. If they are not accurate or if, as in your case, you weren't served with one then they can not be enforced.

Hi,

 

That is great stuff.

I just called HFC Bank and paid my default off so it would be settled.

I will follow up on this though. They stated they because the default notice is a systemcatic process they are unable to provide what i would have got and only a template!

I argued that this is rubbish and any systematic paperwork should have the ability tio be re-ran.

 

Are they fobbing me off....should i got further and demand they provide me with what i should have got, and if they can;t take them to court....or at least start the process.

 

Need some help here.

 

Should i get more legal advice?

They are most certainly trying to fob you off. You need to pressurise them for a true copy of the default quoting the relevant legislation. If they can not supply it and continue to refuse to remove it report them to the ICO, FOS and Trading Standards. That should get their attention.

Rory,

 

thanks! letter already written back to them.

 

Just to check...its section 88 of the CCA 1974 (9) act correct.

 

If they are unable to provide this in a reasonable amount of time i will report them.

 

Where can i find addresses of the Information Commissioners Office, FOS and Trading Standards?

Also,

What kind of letter do i send.

 

SOmething along the lines of:

 

On the xxx you sent me a copy of your internal default notice template. My letter dated xxx clearly stated that i requested a true and signed copy of the original default notice sent to me. Whether the notice is systematically produced or not the ability to produce a copy of the default notice served should not be an issue.

Please send the copy of the notice through to me within the next 28 days otherwise you are in breach of the CCA 1974 S.88 which i have applied through to get the information in my previous letters.

 

 

Ya or Nah!?

To recap they have not supplied a default notice in accordance with s88 of the CCA1974. They have not complied with the relevant regulations (Consumer Credit (Enforcement, Default and Termination Notices) Regulations 1993).

 

If a default notice in the proper form is not served, the action cannot proceed. The case that supports this is Woodchester Lease Management Services Ltd v Swain & Co NLD 14 July 1998.

 

You can find the relevant addresses for ICO, FOS & TS on their websires.

I appriciate the help you are giving so forgive my questions:

 

They more than likely did serve the notice....just to the wrong address, which was neither my fault nor theirs. I sent it in writing to them, they did not update it (but i did not send it registered).

 

What is (Consumer Credit (Enforcement, Default and Termination Notices) Regulations 1993) in regards to?

 

Thanks again!
