    • retailer said they'd speak to dpd on Tuesday. I don't want to screw the retailer because they were doing me a favour by fixing it for free  I hope dpd will refund them so they don't lose out. Will keep you guys posted. 
    • Well, we live on the same road so it should be the same postcode. When I spoke to dpd and asked why were my neighbours' address not on the list and she said maybe they're not of the same postcode and I checked and they definitely were. Not to mention, delivery instructions are supposed to override actual customer's address which is why they asked for instructions I thought.
    • again a quick google search states Appeal a DVLA fine - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) i would not be appealing mind. it's only a summary charge which they rarely do court on and pass out the powerless DCA's whom are not bailiffs they have 6mts. see where they go. as you've sorn'd it will probably be nulled. dx  
    • There are a number of reasons why you may not have been issued a notice in the post within 14 days. If you were stopped by the police it may have been given verbally. In the case of speeding offences, the police may issue you with a conditional offer of a fixed penalty of 3 points and £100.00 fine by post or an offer of a speed awareness course. If the offence is considered too serious for a speed awareness course or fixed penalty you may be charged with an offence which normally occurs by way of the issue of a Single Justice Procedure Notice. If the vehicle within which the alleged offence took place was registered to another person or company there is technically no need for a notice to be issued to the driver. After the police have obtained details of the nominated the driver, they will normally send the notice to them, although there are no time limits within which they must do so (provided that the notice was received within 14 days by the registered keeper of the vehicle). In such circumstances, a person may receive a notice several months after the alleged offence too place but still be prosecuted. A Guide to a Notice of Intended Prosecution | Motoring Offence Lawyers the above copy n paste link has purely been copy n pasted here to inform you of the regs, which you could have done yourself by, as this is, a google search......... we do not ever recommend using such offered webservices! dont dx

    • 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.

It demands they pay you within 7 days.

Thanks for your replys, this seems to be going on and on. . . . it can get quite confusing which I'm sure its why they do this.

 

I'll wait till tomorrow and then send another letter as suggested in your posts above. If that does not work I'm sure I'll be back for more questions as its getting really confusing and I want to make sure I get it right.

 

Thanks Again

The "confusion" you speak about is part of the banks' ploy!

Thanks again for all your replies, I'm just a bit unsure on the letter (payup in seven days time) bit stating of the next few paragraphs

 

1) Quote: WHAT GOES HERE

 

2)You have not filed a defence for claim number 7XX00000 at (Town) County Court, and the time to file a defence has now passed and judgement in default has been/will be granted.

WHERE IT SAYS

BEEN/WILL BE GRANTED (which one do I use BEEN/WILL or do I leave both)

 

3) I am writing to give you one final opportunity to make full payment of £000.00

DOES THIS TOTAL INCLUDE THE COURT FEES

 

4)If I have not received payment in full by 4pm (date - 7 days from date of this letter) I will file for Judgment in Default/apply for a warrant of execution.

WHERE IT SAYS

which one do I use DEFAULT/APPLY or do I leave both.

 

5) Also do I send this to the usual Trinity House address.

 

Apologies for all the questions but I don't want to screw it up at this late stage

 

Cheers

Hi, I was about to send the 7 days pay up or else letter on Friday but didn't because of the postal strike and I though I'd just check today on MCOL in case thay have acknowledged it.

 

Guess what, they acknowleged it! It was served on 13/6/07 and acknowledged on the 29/6/07. Talk about leave it to the last minute.

 

I'm awaiting the acknowlgement letter so I can send my charges to their solicitors.

 

Is it just a case of waiting then to see what they do, I guess this will also be left right up untill the last day. What happens now!

 

Many Thanks in Advance

Thanks everyone for your replies and help, I can't believe this is the last leg of this and I'll only believe it when the moneys paid in as it seems to have gone on for ages and they have stalled me at every opportunity.

 

How do I send my charges to the banks solictors if I don't receive an acknowledge letter, or don't I need to worry about sending them.

 

Thanks again

Hi, thanks for your reply, I sent a copy of my charges and covering letter to the MCOL Department on the day I issued court proceedings. Its taken Halifax 17 days to acknowledge and so have just received this letter which has Halifax's Legal Solictors Address on it.

 

I have not sent the letter to the Halifaxs Solictors yet with a list of charges.

Should I do this now and if yes is it just a straight copy of the interest sheet I sent to the MCOL attached to the template of the Solictiors letter thats on here. Please note the charges sheet does not have the £50 amount I paid to MCOL, is this ok

 

Cheers Again

Yes the amount has to be the same.

 

If you alter it you need to fill out court forms that cost £35 which you cant claim back.

Hi Guys, I've won, had a letter this morning saying they will refund the whole amount into my account in the next five days. I can't believe it! They except no liability blah blah blah and I agreed to the charges when I signed up blah blah blah but it would cost to much for them to defend blah blah.

 

Who cares, thanks to everyone who has helped me,what do I do now with the MCOL, do I have to do anything or just leave it.

 

Right wheres the donation button.

 

Cheers

Happy Days
