    • 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.
    • Under UC there is no actual need to claim carers allowance, as long as you declare that you are caring for X for 35 hours per week and confirm they are in receipt of AA on the claim, they will verify you as a carer and you will then not be subject to the MIF, but will stil need to decalre your income and expenses each assessment period. This is because as a care, you are not expected to be available to work or have to look for work.

    • 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.

Not as stupid a question as you may think, this is from The Co-op DPA response letter (was for Smile):

 

I acknowledge receipt of your request for copies of notepads and transactions on the above account since this was opened. Under the Data Protection Act, this is referred to as a Subject Access Request

 

Does this mean I'm going to get a stack of spiral bound notepaper with random biro scribblings on it? :)

It's basically a section that they can type in, keep records of points made on phonecalls etc. A bit like a word document. For example, it might say 'Letter sent in response to DPA request' and the date or 'Rang up to complain about charges. Advised to blah blah'.

Yep, that's right - it's the automated notes they write each time you call. So, when they put you on hold and say, "I'm just reading through the notes" that's what they're looking at.

 

If they send them to you, they will be printed on paper and state the date and time of call and what was discussed.

 

Have they asked you to provide any more info/send ID/fill in a form and asked for payment or anything?!

I sent them £2, they wrote back and asked for a tenner. Even put in a pre-paid envelope for my response too.. although I chose not to use it and send it recorded 1st instead so I can keep tabs on it :)

 

The exact words were..

 

If you wish to continue with your request then please forward a cheque for £10.00 in the enclosed pre paid envelope and arrangements will be made for the information to be provided within 40 days of receipt of your cheque

They are right asking for a tenner, that's the MAXIMUM fee it will cost you for them sending you all this info, required under the Data Protection Act - don't send them anymore

You're right to this, I personally send it all recorded - they have no excuses then and it only costs one pound!! :)

 

Good luck and keep us posted!!

Thanks, I know that - but as I said in another thread when you're doing god knows how many of them in one go, all those tenners add up! HSBC have said they'd do it for £2, which was a result..

Worth keeping an eye on recorded, Royal Mail actually 'lost' a recorded item a few weeks back! I resent the letter special, then put in a complaint to Royal Mail for £32 compensation. Knowing my luck I'll get it all back in stamps... which is a bit useless, as I use Smartstamp and print all my postage :)

 

Will keep you posted..

Took me half an hour to write it, proof read, print, fold the letter, and so on and so forth. My time is worth £64 an hour, for the purposes of this claim..

 

.. or it could be that it's the maximum you can claim under standard recorded insurance :)

The maximum is just that - a maximum amount.

 

You will get a refund of your postage, and they'll probably send that in stamps. I don't think you'll get any more than that.

Not gonna split hairs on this, but from the back of the recorded slip..

 

If your item is lost or damaged... We'll pay you compenstation for the value of your item up to 100 times the price of a basic weight First Class stamp

 

If you don't ask you don't get.. I then had to send a follow up letter special delivery to cover the loss of the first one, so it's at least a fiver by now.

They won't pay £32 for every item that goes missing, it depends on the value of the item.

 

Anyway, pointless arguing about it. When you get your book of stamps, let me know! :)
