    • HI DX Yes check it every month , after I reinstated the second DD I was checking every week. Also checked my bank statements and each payment has cleared. When responding to the court claim does it need to be in spefic terms ? Or laid out in a certain format? Or is it just a case of putting down in writing how I have expained it on CAG?

    • You have of course checked the car is now taxed and the £68 is stated against  the same reg?  If the tax for the same car did over lap, then I can't see you having an issue pleading not guilty Dx

    • Afternoon all Looking for advice before I defend claim for car tax payment that the DVLA claim I owe £68 from an idemity claimback from my bank and unpaid tax  brief outline. Purchased car Jan 30th ,garage paid the tax for me after I gave them my card details  first payment £68 out in Feb 24  followed by payment of £31 from March due to end Jan 24 Checked one of my vehicle apps and about 7-10 days later car showing as untaxed? No reason why but it looks like DVLA cancelled it , this could be because I did not have the V5 and the gargae paid on my behalf but not sure did not receive a letter to say car was untaxed.  Fair enough I set up the tax again staight away in Feb 24  and first payment out Mar 31st , and each payment since has come out each month for £31 , this will end Feb/Mar 2025, slightly longer than the original tax set up, all good. I then claimed the £68 back from my bank as an indemity refund as obviously I had paid but DVLA had cancelled therefore it was a payment for nothing?  Last week recieved a SJP form dated 29th May stating that DVLA were claiming for unpaid tax and a false indemity claimback which of course is the £68. It also stated that I had received two previous letters offering me the oppotunity to pay that £68 but as I had not responded it was now a court claim that I must admit guilt for or defend. My post is held for weeks at a time from Royal Mail ( keepsafe) due to me receiving hospital tretament at weeks at a time that said I did not receive any previous letters from DVLA. I am happy to defend this and go to court but wondering what CAG members think? In summary I paid an initial amount of £68 and then a DD of £31 , tax cancelled  I set up a new DD at £31 a month all in the month of Feb 2024, I claimed the £68 back from my bank. DD has been coming out each month without issue and I have paperwork to show the breakdown for both DD setup's plus bank statements showing the payments coming out . The second DD set up has extended payments up to Feb/Mar 2025. DVLA claiming the £68 was ilegally claimed back despite the fact they cancelled the original DD for reasons unknown. Is this defendable ? I will post up documents including the original DD conformations

    • 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.

Jubaxt, the precdent was set against BANK accounts where the contract was an implied term.

The good thing about cards is the fact that it is written into the contract so it isn't implied.

 

Also the precdent was set against M&R, there is a new school of thought looking at unjust enrichment and Fairness & balance.

Be VERY careful whose advice you listen too

Do you know what rate you were charged? THe principle is usually to use that one. I was able to work mine out using the monthly rate on my statements and this worked out at 23.9 but I know some peoples has been as high as 34.9%. If you have statements you could try the APR calculator on the front of this spreadsheet (the spready itself is meant for bank accounts only but I think the calculator works fine for CCs too) http://www.zen122856.zen.co.uk/CompoundSheet_v1.9.xls

or be really cheeky and ring Cap 1 up and ask what rate you were on!

 

THe spreadsheet itself should state whether interest is compounded. I think its no 13 or 16 on Vamps google spreadsheets

 

Hope this helps.

i also claimed 29.9% cci-what did you do after receiving partial settlement-how come you've got aq to complete-did you just tell the courts that they had only settled partially in your response form and plan to carry on as though they had not paid-does this make sense-heads elsewhere today.lol

Well i claimed 30% it was a guess if i am honest but i have just rang them and it seems at the moment i have been charged 14.06% purchase interest and 24.15% cash advance so i reckon i should have gone for the 24.15%.After all it is a csh advance they have had.I have sent nothing to the courts so dont know why i got the aq will fill it in by 30th if i do not hear from them.

sowerby, as I said you need patience to deal with them. I got my response just over 2 months from my initial letter rejecting the claim, it was only after literally bombarding them with calls to the legal dept they I got any where. Keep at it.;)

Sowerby,

 

If I was you I woudl accept and let it drop.

 

I will 100% guarantee you that you will not win in court.

 

Did you know a precedent had been set at the high Courts regarding CCI?

 

I would also be inclined to write a letter or email to whoever you were dealing with at C1 and inform them that you are happy to accpet.

 

It might be worth being nice as people there obviously work very hard and have refunded you some money already.

 

Just a thought though.

 

It might make it easier for other claimants if the people dealing with your claims don't get too ****ed off with you asking for more.

I'm not, but I do realise they are people, earning an honest crust like the rest of us.

 

i may be wrong but i gathered that it was not in a high court and also that it was against a bank claim not a card claim-please enlighten me if i am mistaken

 

It certinaly was in a high court, and there is no scope for compounded contractual interest on bank charges as there isn't the same level of charged interest as there is on a Credit Card.

 

I believe the case was on the 12th June, but I could be wrong.

 

All I know is that CC companies will happily take you to court over this and tey'll win.

 

They may also apply for damages, citing that you have acted unreasonably, in that you would be claimng for something yu are not entitled to.

 

I wouldn't want to be lumbered with the bill for a CC companies time in preparing a case, thats for sure!

Can you give any examples of a Credit Card company actually going to court over CCI and winning? I can't find any, but since you put things in such definate terms I'm sure you'll be able to cite such cases.

 

I wouldn't want to be lumbered with the bill for a CC companies time in preparing a case, thats for sure!

 

Most of the cases against CC companies that I've come across in this forum are less than 5k even with CCI and as such I believe would go through the small claims track - isn't there a limit to costs that can be awarded?

:) Captial One - Won!

:) Egg Card - Won!
