    • Appreciate the time that has gone into replying. I have read so much about this tonight that hopefully I can be a step ahead.  If I gain a reply from the head office I shall let you guys know. 
    • yep. they are all simply trading names of perch to try and scam people into thinking their debt is going up some kind to mystical legal chain...which is BS. all dca's pull these stunts and have done since the late 1970's
    • just type no need to hit quote. what you really need to do is forget about it now they have  just steer clear of THAT ONE STORE for a few months. other B&Q's are OK. even if you do go back in, they'll simple ask you to leave, then if you return again, could invoke trespass laws BUT WE HAVE NEVER SEEN IT HERE. as for getting out of your tree about police, prison, criminal record, arrested, knocks at doors, letter of claim....NONE OF THE CAN EVER HAPPEN. and has not on these joe public low level shoplifting incidence since 2012. you've already got a scary letter ratchetting on about some mystical FAKE civil restoration scheme .  you'll probably get a few more ...NOTHING THEY CAN EVER DO. bin shred burn give to your pet hamster any money people pay CRS/RLP/DEF etc regarding their letters goes straight into their pocket and off they go down the pub and LAUGH at people they mugged. the retailer never sees a penny.  i admire your action of send £5 to B&Q. its done now and its over with....move on with your live. dx
    • 4.  Under The Pre-Action Protocol 201?, a Debt Buyer must undertake all reasonable enquiries to ensure the correct address of a debtor, this can be as simple as a credit file search. The Claimant failed to carry out such basic checks. Subsequently all letters prior too and including ,The Pre action Protocol Letter of Claim dated 7 January 2020 and the claimform dated 14th February 2020 were all served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018. 9.   The claimant failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis on the 2nd February 2024 'The Claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents.' None were received by the court nor the defendant by that date. re: 13 & 15...they dont need to produce the deed, thats a private b2b document only the judge can demand sight of. i would remove 13 totally as within their WS they have produced the Notice Of Assignment. and delete it from 15 a few ideas. dx  
    • Underp04 (I think it was him) put up the statement IDR used in court from some supposed expert mr edge. can you find it? It stated 10 years was the statute barred limit but also that the laws were very confusing. very much worth digging 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.

Don't normally speak to any DCAs but Robberson Way caught us on the hop yesterday whilst we were waiting for a call from a doctor about my very seriously ill mother-in-law.

 

They were ringing about a disputed debt, so shouldn't have been calling anyway - my wife gave them an impressive amount of verbal, explained the situation about the doctor, and then I took the call to have a go as well.

 

Majorclanger100: 'You shouldn't be calling us about this debt it is under dispute'

 

Robberson Way: 'We can ring you about it, as you need to cover our costs'

 

MC100: 'Really? So which statute specifies that then? You are aware that you are in breach of the OFT guidelines? I am getting off the phone now as we are waiting for a call from a doctor about my mother in law, who is extremely ill following a heart operation - this is just not important.'

 

RW: 'We need to sort this out, as it
is
very important'

 

MC100: 'Important to you perhaps, but not to us. I am ending this call'

 

RW: 'Stay on the phone Mr Majorclanger, you signed the T & Cs of this contract and now you must face the consequences. This is of vital importance'

 

MC100: 'Goodbyeee' (plus a teeny bit of swearing)

 

Proof that DCAs don't inhabit the same world as the rest of us.....

I hope you recorded it. "Enough rope" and "hang" leap to mind.

 

All the best to your mother-in-law, by the way :)

  • Barclays: WON!!! It took four months but was totally worth it!
  • Cabot: I'm still waiting for an enforcable agreement, more than a year after requesting it. Go on, Uncle Ken, take me to court if you dare. You know you want to!
  • Elephant.co.uk: VICTORY - they admitted there was no debt!
  • Ashbourne Management (gym membership): Finally got my default removed and out-of-court settlement; I'm not finished with them yet!

<--- If I've been helpful please remember the scales ;)

I would have just put the phone down on them in a situation like that , they are not important enough to be engaged on the phone with when awaiting an important call. They are not important enough when not awaiting one.

 

But it is disgusting behaviour , but it is an incentive for you next time to just hang up and leave the phone free for more important concerns. Those fools that are the callers from robinson way are nothing but **** you find on your shoe that you kick into the kerb , they are not worth wasting breath on to talk to . I do keep them talking sometimes to annoy them in the data protection loop , but if an important call is incoming.. no, they must be terminated immediately .

LOL I love the idea of the effect an 'Acme Thunderer' would have - must one.

 

Instalment two of the Robberson Way saga:-

 

Mother-in-law has now left hospital and is pretty poorly as you can imagine. She also has a 'debt' which RW reckon they can collect on - but they've not complied with her CCA request (well over 42 days). Despite this they rang her, she explained that she's not in any fit state to deal with the situation and that she'd just come out of hospital - they said they'd call her every two days until she agreed payment. :mad:

 

We went ballistic - I've threatened them with everything from the OFT to the local paper and Watchdog. Not that they give a toss but it made us feel better! Although she hasn't received any calls from the buggers since..... :roll:

Robberson Way have collapsed totally - we've received a very slimy apology letter (too late to prevent my complaint to the TS - shame ;) ) stating that 'our usual level of service failed on this occasion'. No it didn't - bullying frail old ladies is exactly their usual level of service. Anyway they've referred the account back to the original 'creditor'.

 

Good ending for my mother-in-law but how many other OAPs/vulnerable people are out there who are in the same situation and being treated like dirt, but don't know someone in the CAG who can fight on their behalf? :mad:
