    • Here's a suggested modified version for consideration by the team. (Not sure whether it still gives too much away?)   RE: PCN 4xxxxx Dear ALLIANCE PARKING Litigation Dept, Thank you for your dubious Letter Of Claim (dated 29th April 2024) of £100 for just 2 minutes of overstay. The family rolled around on the floor in amazement of the idea you actually think they’d accept this nonsense, let alone being confused over the extra unlawful £70 you added. Shall we raise the related VAT issue with HMRC, or perhaps the custodians of the unicorn grain silos? Apart from the serious GDPR breach you’ve made with the DVLA and your complete failure in identifying the driver, we’re dumbfounded that the PCN is still not compliant with the PoFA (2012 Schedule 4 Under Section 9.2.f) even after 12 years of pathetic trial and error. We also doubt a judge would be very impressed at your bone idleness and lack of due diligence regarding parking periods. Especially with no consideration of section 13 in your own trade association's code of practice and the topological nature of the Cornish landscape versus a traditional multi-storey. And don’t even get us started on the invisible signage during the ultra busy bank holiday carnage, that is otherwise known as the random parking chaos in the several unmarked, unmanaged over-spill fields, or indeed the tedious “frustration of contract” attempting to get a data connection to Justpark.  We suggest your clients drop this extreme foolishness or get an absolute hammering in court. We are more than ready to raise the above issues and more, with a fair minded judge, who will most likely laugh your clients out in less time than it takes to capture a couple of useless ANPR photos. If you insist on continuing this stupid, money grabbing quest, after having all of the above pointed out, we will of course show this letter to the Judge and request “an unreasonable costs order” under CPR 27.14.2.g and put it toward future taxis to Harlyn Bay instead.  We all look forward to your clients' deafening silence. Signed, "Spot". (Vehicle Keeper's pet Dalmation).
    • Paying DCA's one penny, never mind £50 per month is a mugs game, they have really been milking him as a cash cow   See where received a claim form is underlined in your post, you need to click, on that and read carefully, then answer the questions, then copy and paste into a post on this thread Forget the CAB ,  their advice is sometimes weird. Is it worth defending? Lowell brought these debts for 10 p in the pound , years ago, because they are flawed. Think about it! if it was such an easy win, Capital one could have taken it to court and crushed him.  It could be an invalid agreement, default notice, or many other things.

    • 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.

Clarion48. Forgive me for being a little ignorant. But where is the FAQ page? I have checked and re checked and nothing to be found.

I have put 4months of work into this and loads of patience and screaming only to be no further forward than I was on day 1.

I am praying for a miracle.

I have done as the claims said and filled it in correctly and prinited off 3 copies of the claim and spread sheets and terms and conditions.

As I said in my last message I dont know what else they could possibly want from me.

Okay......did you follow the instructions given on what to put in your 'Particulars of claim'?

 

When you login and click the bank charges forum page.......the FAQ's are on that page just a very little way down....in red. Read through those.

 

You don't need to send the terms & conditions with your N1....just your spreadsheet with each individual charge listed. When you go to the court they will tell you how much it costs.....depends on the size of your claim.

Ok Clarion...I have found the information tyou mentioned the only thing it does not tell me is what these court bundles contain.

What else do i have to provide and prepare for this for when the time comes, as I said before i have little time as it is and it would be nice to be a few steps ahead if more info is required or i am supposed to get info for the bundle. I`ve read come people have pages and pages. I ahve no where near at the most I have 20 pages and thats just the claim and spreadsheets and T & C`s.

Anything else or where I can find a list of what is required would be a great help.

Dont worry about the court bundle yet you are a while away from that. If you want, PM me your email address and I send you what I have so far for the bundle to get you started.

 

Good Luck

 

and everyone is here to help you every step of the way.

Ladidi, glad i am not the only one here who dosn't know all the answers, I am at the same stage as you and will be handing in my N1 tomorrow. Don't even know if i have filled it in correctly but i am hoping that they will tell me at the court if i havn't! Luckily there seem to be lots of lovely people on here willing to give advice and keep us on the right track. Some of them have been through the process a few times. Maybe if i win i might be willing to give it another go through another bank (and be a bit quicker at it). Don't even know what to do once i've handed it the form! Will be keeping a close eye on all the others who are at the same stage. Good Luck!!

Once you hand in the N1 form, the court will then send you a letter titled notice of issue which tells you when they sent it to Abbey, when it will be deemed to be served and what date they have to respond.

Your months away from the bundle Ladidi you should be reading up at this stage on AQ.

 

Hopefully you may find that you do not need to produce a bundle my case was thrown out as an abuse of process so I did not have to do one.

 

Once you submit your N1 you will get a notice from the court advising the date it was deemed served, Abbey will have two weeks to acknowledge your claim and they will defend in full.

 

By defending in full from the date the claim was deemed served they will have 28 days to enter their defence. So if it was deemed served on the 1st of the month it will be the 28th of the month that Abbey will have to have their defence submitted to court.

 

If you are unable to get on this site due to your work commitment it may be an idea to purchase Patrica Pearl's book "Small Claims Procedure" if you look in the boxes on the left you will see a picture of the book and a link to purchase it.

 

This book is fantastic it gives you a step by step guide and in the back there is a very good flow chart.

 

As I said before it is very important now that you understand the process and understand what you are submitting if you do get into the court you will need to be able to argue your claim.

Quite agree MJ.......read, read, read. It's your case and you need to be able to argue it in court.....you will only be able to do that by knowing what you are arguing (even though it is unlikely to get as far as court).

 

The basic court bundle is in the bank template library....once you have downloaded and looked through that.....yell for the next step.

Hi everyone

 

in relation to the read, read, read. I have been doing just that all over this website in fact lol

I have downloaded and saved a lot of stuff in preparation of my court bundle.

I know I am maybe months or weeks away and I am praying it is not required. But at the same time I dont want to be caught short at the last moment and having panic attacks worse than last nite.

To be honest I got on here this morning before I went to work and i dont know what whether it was the fact my mind was relaxed and not angry, but I seem to find all info and bits and peices that I could not find or see yesterday. I have saved everything that is required for the court bundle in case.

Oh yeah and a good bit of advice. I dont know if anyone else has asked but I did today. I found out that if you get working tax credit with the disablity element or council tax credit you may not have pay the fees.

My husband rang the court today while I was at work and they are sending out the information papers. They advised that I may or may not depends on info enclosed onto the forms. Might be worth for others who have not much funds to spare to see if they are entitled to court fund help. Not sur eof the process on this but I would then recomend that the court make the banks repay fees given to legal aid dept for costs incurred to their abuse of process..

Anyway will let you all know if any informtion comes of this.

Do ayou calim in the beginning of you claim or does that come when you submit you bundle an dinclude money for time and priniting etc. How far do you start making that initial claim from? Is it from the very beginning or when you have filed your N1?

Hi all, I have received a letter from the Abbey and this is what they have said to me. Out of all the money they make they send your letter out second post. Cheap skates or what! Does anyone know what my next move should be?

 

Dear Mr and Mrs ****

 

Thank you fo ryour call 7th April 2007 and your calls and correspondence since, about your bank charges. I am sorry you ar eunhappy with our previous response moreover, I sincerely appologise for our delay in responding to you.

 

Having carried out a full investigation, we believe the charges are valid and therefore I cannot agree to refund them.

 

The unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 say that we must explain our charges in plain language and that we have in good faith, which, according to the Office of Fair Trading, means dealing fairly and openly with customers.

 

I therefore reveiwed the literature and information you received when you opened your account, including the terms and conditions. This explains that charges will be applied if you do not keep to the terms and conditions of the accoutn. Because of this, I believe we have been fair and open in telling you about them. The charges were correct, because you did not have enough money in your account to cover payments requested from it. When I looked at the history for your account I found that, unfortunately, this was not the first time this has happened.

 

I can see we have refunded charges, in the past, as a gesture of goodwill. I am sorry, that because of this, I cannot agree to cancel these charges.

 

I am confident that I have been fair and we have taken into account all the ppoints you made in your calls. But if you have any additional points that you would like to discuss, please call on 0845 600 6014. I have enclosed a leaflet about the FOS, in case you are not happy with my investigation or decision. If so, you should contact them within 6 months of the date of the letter, enclosing a copy of it, as they would need this for their investigation.

 

I hope we can work together to help you avoid charges in the future. Little things can help, like checking your account balance as often as possible and looking at the dates of Direct Debits to make sure they are taken shortly after money is paid in. In addition we might be able to help by providing an overdraft facility to give you more flexibilty. This could help to keep your costs down, as there are no charges unless you exceeed your overdraft limit. So, if you wouldlike to talk to someone about the options available, Please call out Telephone Banking Center on 08459 724 724. Alternatively, If you think you might need longer-term help to manage your bank account, Please call 0845 603 9035 and we will be happy to help.

 

Your Sincerly

 

Senior Customer Resolutions Manager.

 

 

The way the letter is worded sounds like he was saying he was doing me favour by offering me an overdraft and repaying for bank charges earlier. I got that money back because it was their fault they incurred not mine.

I am really unsure about all the paper work I need .Please Help.

Hello Ladidi,

Don't worry about mcol being miles away, once abbey file their defence the claim should be transferred to your local county court.

 

Don;t forget though if you filed through mcol to send a copy of your particulars of claim (a full breakdown of the charges you are claiming) to both the court & abbey - make sure the claim number is on the particulars of claim, and any accompanying letter. I would also recommend that you send it recorded (to get a signature).

Regarding the paperwork you need - i don't think you need to worry about getting papers together just yet - wait until abbey acknowledge your claim and submit a defence.

 

Hope this helps.

Hiya Everyone

 

As you know I filed my N1 claim at the county court the other week.

I was wondering as the Abbey have until the 23rd to either make a defence or totally forget about me so I win anyway * Wishful Thinking again*

Would it be a good thing to send them a email and offering to settle for a little less than claiming as I could do with the dosh A.S.A.P. I mean my claim is for 5.3k so I thought straight £5k.

Anyone got any thoughts on this?

I would deffinatly email them, they are very hit and miss at the moment, in that some claims they are agreeing to the settlement put to them and in others they are rejecting them, but it is certainly worth a try
