    • 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
    • The boundary wiill not be the yellow line.  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

    • It's not a private road.  It's a small public street (with Resi houses) that leads into and from public road/ highway. The garages have land in front of the doors.  Then there's a yellow line. So there's a clear marker on what is private and what is public.  These people keep parking on the private land side

    • 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.

repudiation of contract

A form of BreachOfContract where a party announces his intention not to perform his obligations under it (rather that simply not performing it in the expected time and manner). This is also known as `anticipatory breach of contract'. A person may have the right to repudiate if the other party is in breach of a Condition of the contract, and he may then treat the contract as discharged. However, repudiation is a breach of contract, and if done without good cause will leave the repudiator liable for Damages.

repudiation of contract

A form of BreachOfContract where a party announces his intention not to perform his obligations under it (rather that simply not performing it in the expected time and manner). This is also known as `anticipatory breach of contract'. A person may have the right to repudiate if the other party is in breach of a Condition of the contract, and he may then treat the contract as discharged. However, repudiation is a breach of contract, and if done without good cause will leave the repudiator liable for Damages.

 

In particular, your contract stated that you had to repay a minimum amount of money (5% per month). by taking you to court for the full amount due, the creditor has terminated the contract. Under the Consumer Credit Act 1974, a creditor has the right to do this if you are in breach of the contract (i.e. by making late payments) after issuing a default notice with a statutory period of time to rectify the default.

 

without such a default notice, by claiming the full amount of money due they are effectively terminating the contract... and by doing so without following proper procedure, this consitutes a repudiation of the contract.

i will be off site for the next month or so. if you have any problems, feel free to report the post so a moderator can help you.

I'll have to see if they actually have a contract before I start learning these big words and their meanings lol. Unlikely though by the looks of things.....

You certainly have a contract :)

 

That contract is a consumer credit agreement regulated by the consumer credit act 1974. Therefore, they must have a signed document with all the prescribed terms (your signature, APR/interest rate, credit limit, repayment schedule, cancellation terms, and etc.) if they want to enforce it.

 

however, you can still use the repudiation of contract line in a counter claim, even if they don't have the agreement.

1st thing tomorrow i would suggest calling next. When they do finally reply you will be given a personal customer service manager who will deal with the issues you have. My lady was very polite and 1st class!!! well done next!! Basically she spoke to people in dpa and cca dept and towards the end i spoke to these people directly. Dont stress just keep on at em, as i stated i had them done and dusted in 2 weeks after recieving statements. Next had nothing else to provide no default no computer minutes NOTHING and that was confirmed in writing also. On your next directory statement there is a 0800 freeserve number. To save your money when it asks for selfserve no keep pressing 000000000000 and after a few attempts you will be directed to a customer service who in tern can put you through to dpa manager etc. Just a thought as to save costs!!! At all times i conducted my account in the proper manner but an accident at work meant that i had to prioratise my money and pay essential bills. I still paid £2 a monh to show i was willing and aknowledge the debt to stop it esculating but now i have confirmation that i dont owe them and even if they chase me for it i can just show debt recovery agents the letter from next and they will go away!!!!!

 

And as they have provided no other info as they say they simply dont have anything else i can also pursue the removal of any default too win win win!!! its like getting 3 melons on the fruit machine!! makes a change from getting the cherries!!!

Feel free to ask questions if there is anything you don't understand...

 

e.g. agreement = contract = legally enforceable bargain

 

enforceable = the court can force you to pay something / do something

 

consumer credit act 1974 / 2006 = a law that regulates (i.e. says how something is supposed to operate) most consumer credit.

 

repudiation of contract = deciding not to honour a contract, without legal cause OR failing to obey the correct procedures.

Ive got my head around the CCA sections 77 and 78, plus other small sections of relevance.

The bits I don't know are:

Where can I find the legislation that states what the prescribed terms of a contract are and how they should be presented, and

Where are the civil procedure rules that Ive seen mentioned?

 

Im sure plenty more questions will be coming this way...;)

Thankyou very much guys.

Don't talk to me about other people's pets! I have had a crazy ex-racing Greyhound for the last week - goes tomorrow am - Hooray! He's ousted my cats and barks all night because he wants to sleep in bed with us! I can't get him in the house if I want to go out - he just keeps running away - and it therefore means that he has to come in the car with me for everything - including the school runs and supermarket - and I have to be double quick so he doesn't boil in the car! At least you are getting paid!!!!

LOL. Well this is the greediest dalmation you could ever come across and the fattest, but friendliest cat that's about 12 years old. The cat's preoccupied with finding an exit of any kind and has even searched above the microwave.

The dog's preoccupied with food at every waking moment, and is sniffing round every nook and cranny of the first floor of my house for the slightest crumb of food. She has already scratched up my wooden furnature when she jumped up to look out of the window tsk...:mad:

Gives me something else to do rather than worry about the CC I suppose...:rolleyes:

I think you don't have to worry about the CC anymore - you are just going to have to deal with it. I think that is the difference from being in this forum. You are not alone anymore and are receiving advice from people who know what they are talking about and whose help you would otherwise have to pay a fortune for. Long live the CAG forum and the mad fat dalmations and cats - and the skinny bu**** greyhounds - they make for a good laugh in the end - only because you can once again laugh because you are not facing hell alone!!! GOD bless CAG!

Yes, and Rafferty really is a skinny ex-greyhound who chases things (my cats) - I'll tell you one thing - when he gets going he's blo**y fast! I reckon he would easily keep up with my horse at full tilt gallop - and he ain't no snail!!!

I do feel loads better. Ive had so many contributions of good advice to this thread, its hard not to!

I didn't have a clue where I stood at first-seemed like the end of the world :( (sorry for the impatience at the start too but 1 hour in that situation can feel like a week!)

Things I have to do next are

1) Ring RM in the morning to see if there's any news on the original request

2) Check RM website so I know the 2 letters sent today have arrived ;)

3) Start getting some sort of defence together with the limited info I have. If all I have to do is dismiss each point on their very rubbish poc, then I should think it won't take long :)

 

I haven't slept for about 4 months lol as I have an 18 week old in my room!

I had wondered who the baby was!! None of this is funny at the best of times - but when you have a family to worry about, it does become particularly difficult. You know you are on the right track now and clearly from your last post you know what you must do! I think this is such a fab medium of connecting with others who can help - there should be money made available by the government to run a site like this because it is so difficult for the layman to know where else to look! You have the time and ability to do this - GO, GO, GO!!!! (No, not you, you bas**** dog - leave the cats alone!!!!)
