    • OK.  But it's going to take a little while to read through all these documents and put them together, when a lot of us on the forum are working.  Be patient.  But we'll get there!
    • So a follow up for the last letter.  I got a SMS saying I had a new letter and I viewed it online.   it told me that my account is no longer on hold and I should call them to set a repayment plan.   er..no I don’t think so !   Still no response to my CCA request so I guess I will just wait for the next PAP form to come 🙄   is it worth sending a 3rd CCA request?
    • Thank you Dave, yes I have been reading a lot, but as you already mentioned mine is court one for some reason. Yes, the CPR request - printed and sent after completing the AOS online, as per dx's instructions.   And yeah the full timeline had me scrapping the vehicle and moving to new place in between the date of alleged contravention and receiving first "debt recovery" letters. To none of them did I respond as all of them said that I cannot dispute the charge as seen in the letter attached. 02/01/2020 - alleged contravention 29/11/2020 - scrapage of mentioned vehicle that I was still the registered keeper of and V5 had my address of the time on it since DVLA was reaching me and they had my details from them it should be correct 02/02/2022 - I move to my new place 18/01/2023 - first letter of debt recovery to my new address 21/11/2023 - letter of claim raised to county court Funny enough I never used that parking, so since I didn't see the pictures (the PCN or any reminder was never sent to my address in the first place, on the 18/01/2023 it was literally the first contact) I cannot even take a look whether it was my housemate as he sometimes borrowed my car, but then again I checked my emails and everything and on 01/01/2020 I was flying into the country back from holiday and was landing at Luton London Airport so me myself definitely had no business in Stansted area. I cannot even check for mercy period, whether that was actually my car or reg clone, nothing, as I never had that letter in my hands, sadly.
    • Good grief, this has to be one of the most stupid invoices issued for the most petty of reasons that we've seen here. What was the reason for your two visits? I ask as there may be the chance of getting the leisure complex to intervene.

    • 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.

    • People are still buying used cars unseen, paying by cash or by bank transfer, relying on brand-new MOT's by the dealer's favourite MOT station….

What an excellent site. I heard about you from the Radio 4 Money Box broadcast. I have spent a couple of days reading the FAQs and browsing the postings. My DPA letter goes off this afternoon. Along with a cheque for £10, which will take me over my OD limit if they cash it. Just a shame I can't go back more than 6 years. I've been with them at least 12 years and they've been screwing me since then.

Thank you for you welcoming messages. I just wondered how many FD customers have had their accounts closed due to recovery charges.

 

Also looking through the FAQs again I did pick up on the thread re 6 year limits. Does anyone think it could be possible to sue once for charges up to 6 years ago, and then do a seperate suit for charges beyond that using the clauses in the act shown in the 6 year thread?

 

I do hope so.

It's suddenly occured to me that because I'm so useless at running my account and money affairs in general, I have never really been able to save anything. How kind of FD to have been taking out regular amounts for me. It soon adds up to a tidy little nest egg. Thanks FD.

 

DPA posted yesterday by recorded post.

Parachute account opened yesterday - Halifax.

 

Bring it on.
