    • Thank you. I'm going to say that the photographs really don't say very much and once again it's a real shame that you didn't take lots of photographs of all the issues including the Windows and the state of the inside of the room. You can certainly bring a claim here if you want and we will help you but I'm really not sure of your chances of success. It sounds to me as if the manager you spoke to was dismissive and nothing was particularly agreed or admitted. If you want to bring a claim then I would start off by establishing a paper trail where you point out the things that were wrong and the fact that you discuss this with the duty manager who appeared to be dismissive. You could ask them then in general terms if they have any proposals to make. I think you're in weak position. I don't think you should start threatening them with legal action or anything at the moment and even if you did bring a legal action for the full amount I would probably advise you to negotiate a settlement of maybe 50% – if you're lucky – at mediation. Have you tried putting up Google reviews and reviews on trust pilot? This could also be a good way to start. I'm very sorry but when you deal with these kinds of issues then you need to collect evidence as quickly as possible. It is the first thing you always do when there is a poor hotel, a stone in your cornflakes or a motor accident. I'm afraid that you have to think this way and maybe it doesn't come naturally – but having run the consumer action group for 18 years, this is rather second nature. If you have any phone calls with them then you should read our customer services guide first and then confirm any admissions they might make in writing.

    • What is the value of the claim? Please can you post up the claim form in PDF format
    • Hello , sorry of this is in the wrong place. I have received in the post a County Court Claim claim form.  This relates to MYJAR and issued by TM Legal relating to a payday loan issued 11/2017, subsequently they issued a default notice 09/2018. The debt isnt on any credit reports.  4/4/2024 I had an email saying a Letter of claim was sent - this was not received , i replied to say I believed the debt was statue barred their response We are aware that the correspondence you have sent, is in a format that is circulated on consumer-based websites whereby debtors are encouraged to use the templates in order to avoid repayment of their debts. We do not accept that the contents of these templates bear any particular relevance to your case. For clarification, in line with the Limitations Act 1908, no claim may be brough after a period of 6 years from the cause of action. The cause of action in this instance is the Notice of Default served upon you by the original creditor on 24th September 2018. As such, the account is not Statute Barred. 10th June 2024 I have received a county court claim form and now i am unsure what to do next and how to complete and respond, I do not want a CCJ. Please help

    • 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,

This is a std reply from Barclays,

get used to their stalling tactics,

keep to your deadlines not theirs.

follow the procedures as set on this site.http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/31460-example-step-step-instructions.html

If you have any questions or concerns, post on here before taking action someone will respond very quickly.

 

Im assuming you have sent in your pre lim letter!http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/671-letter-preliminary-approach-repayment.html

the next step will be the LBA http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/92-letter-before-action-consumer.html

Always put things done in writing-that way if it gets to court them at least you have written proof of any requests that yiu may have made.

You could phone them and then follow it up with a letter but make sure that any offers/statements made by Barclays are confirmed to you in writing.

What Dar3n was saying is absolutly correct! This is standard Barclays delay tactics! I think nearly everyone on this forum has had one - I certainly have, but you just need to ignore it, and once YOUR 14 day deadline has lapsed go on to the next stage. This is YOUR claim not theres!!!:D

Dar3n and Torigirl are spot on. At this stage I would not bother phoning them. I would save my phone bill and at the end of your 14 day file your claim. At the end of Barclays 4 weeks they will probably make you a poor offer. So dont waste your time stick to your deadlines.

Well your LBA is informing them that you are about to file with the courts, thats all you need, as with regard yto calling them I really wouldn't bother as they may just bambozzle you and twist everything, but like PPMAN says if you do get a name.

Barclays wont offer to settle in full till youre about 2/3 weeks away from your court date.

Just be patient and follw the procedure and the money will be yours,

 

Also keep a record of any charges they have levied since your claim began, as in my case they paid them back to me at the end when they settled in FULL

 

Good Luck

 

Paul
