    • The Contract itself The airport is actually owned by the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan. There should be an authority from them for Bristol airport group  to sign on their behalf. Without it the contract is invalid. The contract has so many  clauses redacted that it is questionable as to its fairness with regard to the Defendants ability to receive a fair trial. In the case of WH Holding Ltd, West Ham United Football Club Ltd -v- E20 Stadium LLP [2018],  In reaching its decision, the Court gave a clear warning to parties involved in litigation: ‘given the difficulties and suspicions to which extensive redaction inevitably gives rise, parties who decide to adopt such an appropriate in disclosure must take enhanced care to ensure that such redactions are accurately made, and must be prepared to suffer costs consequences if they are not’. The contract is also invalid as the signatories are required to have their signatures co-signed by independent witnesses. There is obviously a question of the date of the signatures not being signed until 16 days after the start of the contract. There is a question too about the photographs. They are supposed to be contemporaneous not taken several months before when the signage may have been different or have moved or damaged since then. The Defendant respectfully asks the Court therefore to treat the contract as invalid or void. With no contract there can be no breach. Indeed even were the contract regarded as valid there would be no breach It is hard to understand why this case was brought to Court as there appears to be no reasonable cause to apply to the DVLA.............
    • Danny - point taken about the blue paragraphs.  Including them doesn't harm your case in any way.  It makes no odds.  It's just that over the years we've had judges often remarking on how concise & clear Caggers' WSs have been compared to the Encyclopaedia Britannica-length rubbish that the PPCs send, so I always have a slight preference to cut out anything necessary. Don't send off the WS straight away .. you have plenty of time ... and let's just say that LFI is the Contract King so give him a couple of days to look through it with a fine-tooth comb.
    • Do you have broadband at home? A permanent move to e.g. Sky Glass may not fit with your desire to keep your digibox,, but can you move the items you most want off the digibox? If so, Sky Glass might suit you. You might ask Sky to loan you a “puck” and provide access as an interim measure. another option might be using Sky Go, at least short term, to give you access to some of the Sky programming while awaiting the dish being sorted.
    • £85PCM to sky, what!! why are you paying so much, what did you watch on sky thats not on freeview?  
    • Between yourself and Dave you have produced a very good WS. However if you were to do a harder hitting WS it may be that VCS would be more likely to cancel prior to a hearing. The Contract . VCS [Jake Burgess?] are trying to conflate parking in a car park to driving along a road in order to defend the indefensible. It is well known that "NO Stopping " cannot form a contract as it is prohibitory. VCS know that well as they lose time and again in Court when claiming it is contractual. By mixing up parking with driving they hope to deflect from the fact trying to claim that No Stopping is contractual is tantamount to perjury. No wonder mr Burgess doesn't want to appear in Court. Conflation also disguises the fact that while parking in a car park for a period of time can be interpreted as the acceptance of the contract that is not the case while driving down a road. The Defendant was going to the airport so it is ludicrous to suggest that driving by a No Stopping  sign is tacitly accepting  the  contract -especially as no contract is even being offered. And even if a motorist did not wish to be bound by the so called contract what could they do? Forfeit their flight and still have to stop their car to turn around? Put like that the whole scenario posed by Mr Burgess that the Defendant accepted the contract by driving past the sign is absolutely absurd and indefensible. I certainly would not want to appear in Court defending that statement either. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I will do the contract itself later.

    • 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.

Too right! I'm listening to a debate on 5Live as we speak. The OFT are going for full disclosure, although all cases may be well be on hold as a result. However the banks WILL LOSE. Yorkshire bank now impose a £2 charge. Also the banks are now getting together for the challenge and risk getting branded as acting as a CARTEL. OOOH! Bluudy hell thay are taking one hell of a risk. THat's EU law, if I'm correct They are going to hell in a hand basket when they lose. Automatic refunds everywhere, default notices ordered to be removed - the possibilities are endless.

 

Oh Well. THat's the ideal but because they are big and powerful, there will be some fudge. Once again the less well off subsidise the better well off and the less well off get even less well off as a result.

Keep the faith. EiE.

Have claim in with Barclays and unfortunately it has been stayed and now delayed by the floods in Gloucester. Must admit I am now at the end of my tether with Barclays as they do not reply to any of my emails/letters and have just dragged their feet. Have the feeling that they stalled as they knew what was going on. Only way I can think of to atleast derive some satisfaction is to close down my 4 accounts and my families 4 accounts with the bank and move somewhere else. Can anyone recommend a fair (if there is such a thing) bank where I can take my money and business? Petty you guys don't have an online bank and we could all join and let the highstreet banks rot.

I feel so very very sorry for everyone who was so near and now it seems are so very very far away.

 

I understand this had to happen but to just announce it in this way is just not fair.

 

The banks have known about this for some time.

 

It all becomes very clear now the delay in refunds and my friends experience with Bar clays the other day.

 

I went through the process with Lloyds, and that was stressful enough , but what about all the court bundles submitted and people relaying on there money soon,

The way Barclays litigation team have not been replying to calls and e mails, the storys I have read about, untruths told.

 

I think it is just not fair.

Market watchdog the Financial Services Authority (FSA) will allow banks to suspend dealing with any claims for repayment of overdraft charges filed against them until the test case has been decided.

However, the banks will still need to make a note of any claims lodged, and will have to honour offers to settle that were made before the test case and FSA waiver were announced.

Hi all

 

What a shock eh!!

 

My hubby got his court date yesterday morning (7th September) In the afternoon we learn that all claims are suspended until after the test case.

 

Obviously the courts have been aware of all this, it was probably instigated by them because they couldn't cope with all the cases. (someone probably vetoed all the overtime).

And now it explains why the banks have been delaying the claims. It all makes sense now.

 

I am sure that the case will go for the consumer, it has to as the implications are horrendous. Not only for those in the red, but those in the black as well.

 

Did anyone see Angela Knight on TV this morning. I shall hold my thoughts as I don't want to be had up for libel, etc.

She was likened to that of an MP,, talking a lot but not saying anything.

 

which is quite apt really:

 

Knight was MP for Erewash from 1992 to 1997, when she lost the seat to Labour's Liz Blackman. She was Economic Secretary to the Treasury from 1995 to 1997.

Can I just add, although it has now been plastered all over the forum, in case people missed it:

 

Do NOT stop your court actions.

 

If you have court directions, follow them. If you were about to file, file.

 

Why?

1) The claims in court are not systematically stayed. The banks may be stopping paying out outside of court, but a court action will take a judge's decision to stay to stop.

2) It will take time for a binding legal decision. If you wait until then, some charges will fall beyond the 6 years "limit", and most people are not prepared to argue SOLA 1980.

3) While your claim is ongoing, interest accrues. If you haven't filed, and the OFT wins, and the banks get ordered to systematically repay, the sums will not involve the 8%, as it is a COURTS decided benchmark.

I feel sorry for you too Linda as my hubby is in the same position. We have had this Barclays thing going since just before Xmas last year and now it doesn't look as though it will be sorted before Xmas this year.

 

We were sort of relying on this money coming through to help us out of a lot trouble.

Serves us right really as we should have known not to rely on anything with banks. (especially Barclays)

 

Lets hope it gets sorted soon.

Just to end on a lighter note.

 

Now all the judges will not be hearing bank cases.

 

Does this mean they will all be having a holiday?

 

Maybe we will see them in the discos in Ibiza, tripping the light fantastic, getting drunk and being sick in the toilets?

Ibiza

 

Don't you mean the Seychelles or the Maldives Daaaaaarling

 

They will have to spend all that profit soon, because I am confident that the case will go in favour of the consumer, and they will have to return it all.
