    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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.

Okay, I'm sifting through my statements and I'm about to enter the details into the Excel spreadsheet. Only trouble is I've never used Excel before :oops: and could do with a little guidance.

 

What I'm unsure of is, do I delete the examples of charges that are already in the spreadsheet? Or do I just enter them on page 2 or replace the existing ones with the actual charges?? Sorry for sounding like an absolute gonk but like I say, I'm no good with Excel.

You delete the "in respect of" "Amount" and "Date incurred " coloumns though of course not the headers you leave the "days since the offence " and "interest 8%APR" columns it automaticaly recalculates them for you :D

:) Go on ... you know you want to click me :)

:lol:don't be like the banks - give a little back :lol:

As a cautionary word of advice do it several times and highlight them .......I missed a couple on ours and if it wasnt for the fact that I rechecked them later they would have been missed .....as the saying goes slowly slowy catch the worm lol.

 

Just remember also you can't add the interest to your claim yet .......you add that later when you issue a court summons .........as you probably will have to ...........hopefully ........then the pennies add up :lol:

Cheers!!

 

In the premliminary appraoch letter for repayment it states that you include a schedule of charges. Do you just print off the Excel spreadsheet or just list the date, reason and cost of charges on a seperate page? Sorry for sounding like an amateur :p.

  • 1 month later...
  • 2 months later...

Hi all, arrived back from Norway this morning just in time for another letter to arrive from the Halifax.

 

They're now offering to refund me 6 months charges which totals £320. Again, they say it will be full and final settlement. :rolleyes: Obviously I'm not going to accept it, so I guess that I'll have to file against them in the courts. :eek:;)

 

One other thing, the letter I received today says, "I know this won't be the response you were hoping for". :D:D No s***!!

Ok folks, need a bit of advice about the MCOL proceedings.

 

How long does it usually take after lodging your claim for a response from Halifax? Also, if it does go to court, how long would I have to wait for a court date, and if they make a satisfactory offer, am I right in thinking you can halt proceedings? Or would you still have to go to court?

Guest bluecloud

The length of time can vary but not normally much more than a day or 2 after the claim is "deemed served".

 

Go to court? Hahahahahaha

 

The banks are scared witless of a court appearance. Yes they may appear tough but if one bankd ends up in court it will set a precedent and even worse, the true nature of costs will be revealed to the general public.

 

You can of course withdraw a claim at any time after lodging it but you will lose you fee. The other problem is that the bank will have already paid out - lol.

 

In the end, don't panic. You WILL get your money, just exercise a little patience.
