    • Thanks all for all your input. I have decided to follow this all the way. So far, I have not replied to Alliance Parking's original NTK letter. The time-period for the reduced amount has now finished, and the time to appeal (21 days from the date of letter) will finish on 25th Apr. No further comms received from Alliance Parking. Could you please guide me, for my readiness, on what happens next? Am I going to start receiving letters from Alliance Parking > Debt Collector letters > Letter of Claim? Who sends me the Letter of Claim - Alliance Parking / Debt Collectors / Solicitors / court? How many weeks / months from now is this likely to be? Once Alliance Parking passes the debt off to the Debt Collectors, is there a risk of anyone turning up at the door? Do I need to reply to any other letters from either the parking company, debt collectors, or solicitors? Many thanks in advance.

    • Pretty good first draft   Only question I have is did you use a template from this forum to write it?   Parts of It just seems very familiar, and I'm concerned if TFL see people just copying and pasting stuff they've seen before it won't be as effective.   If not then I'd say its good but allow others to give their feedback.

    • 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 there I've not posted here for a long time but I thought I would bring you up to date.

Filed with MCOL against YB at the end of March. No acknolagement or defence filled by the 19th of May, applied for judgement by default which was granted, no contact from YB so applied for the bailiffs to go in, which again was granted. Does this mean I have won or should I put the celabrations on hold?

Has anyone esle been in this situation? Will YB have anything up their sleeve I should be aware of?

Cheers

Joe

joercityfan, I presume you have applied for a warrant of execution. They may apply for stay of judgement which would delay your claim, but i think you are so far down the line now. You will get your money soon.Good luck.

Hi Parkvale

I applied for judgement by default which was grated, then I applied for a warrant for the bailiffs to go in which again was granted and moved to my local court for exicution.(I think).

Hi guys to cut a long story short I applied and was granted judgement by default on the 22nd of May, I then applied and was granded a warrant of execution on the 23rd of May. Today I have recieved a letter from Clydesdale Bank Legal services saying they are defending the claim and that I haven't provided them with any details of account number or list of charges to which I have sent them 3 copies.

Can they defend a claim after judgement has been awarded?

Please help I thought I had beat YB.

Cheers

Joe.

Sadly I think they can get away with this. I would send them a letter stating that you have already supplied details of the account and a list of charges but include a copy again.

 

If anyone with further knowledge can tell you any different then I'm sure they will be along to correct me.

Hi there (again) I've just had a thought and I would be very happy hear you others guys & Gals thoughts on it.

I recieved a letter from YB solicitors from Bonny Scotland saying that they are defending the claim (even though I have been granted judgement by default and also I have requested the bailiffs to go in which again was grated) and saying that they have not recieved any requests or account info from myself ect ect, I am not filing agaist their head office but my local branch and all the letters and lists had been sent to the local branch.

What I'm trying to ask/say is I am claiming from my local branch and therefore should I ignor the letter as it is not from my local bank?

I am grasping at straws?

All your thoughts & advice are as all ways greatfully recieved.

Hi guys I just phoned the Bailiffs regarding the warrant against YB that was issued on the 23rd of May. I recieved a letter from YB solicitor on the 25th May saying they were defending the claim & want acc details ect ect.

I phoned the bailiffs 5 mins ago to see what was happening and to my amazement they said they had recieved a cheque form YB for the full amount but I will have to wait 21 days until I recieved the cheque. Do I take this as a win or should I still hold my breath? Starting to fell chuckle to myself (can't help it) & laugh at YB for all their snotty & cocky letters and attitude. Oh sorry just under £5000.

:razz: :razz: :razz: :razz: at YB & Clydesdale.

Would seem like a win but wait until the cheque is in your hands before raising the roof.

 

Also why will it take 21 days to get the cheque to you?

 

Does it mean that YB have paid the baliffs who will then bank the cheque, get 21 days interest and then pay it to you?

 

If so can you not ask that they pay the interest to you?

Hi PPMan159

I don't know why 21 days the bailiffs said it was something to do with insolvency as they had sent the cheque to them????

However Iwould have thought they would have paid it straight into my account.

As the claim was instigated by yourself I would have thought that the cheque should have been paid direct to you.

 

Why not give them a call back to find out why it is going to take 21 days-seems a bit odd to me.

Hi again I've just spoke to the bailiffs again asking why the 21 day wait it is because any amount of money over £500 that they are asked to collect has to be held in case the person/persons goes into recievership. this according to the bailiff is a legal requirement if the bailiff is paid direct.

Cheers

Started in Feb 4 months isn't that long really but I can't understand why they draw it out so much.

All I can say is what everyone else is saying stick at it and don't let them (YB/Clydesdale) put you off. They WILL & DO PAY just stick at it and to your time scales not theirs, state all the facts when dealing with thier legal team including mentioning all the the letters they or your bank has sent you aknowleaging they have recieved all your account details and tables of charges and that you will use these if nessercery. It's long winded but it seems to work.

Best of luck & oh just for the record I'M going after all my charges post 6 years as well now.

keep the faith

Congratulations Joey, although I've never heard of a cheque taking 21 days to clear. Given the profits the NAB group have been showing I don't think bankruptcy is an issue either.

 

Is there anything in writing from the bailiffs about this, and if they will pay you interest on your money. After all they've had a fee as payment.
