    • 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.

My GF has some debts and we decided to CCA them for the sake of it. On replied so far, eversheds with the following letter.

Im aware that I could well indeed CCA the original finance company but im wondering what this letter means from eversheds point of view and any ideas as to what any of you pro's would do next.

 

I was under the impression they should be in possession of this paperwork to be able to legally claim this debt. We are not trying to squirm out of the debt, i just want to cause them as much stress as I can in my free time.

 

Note they also kept the £1 postal order.

They are trying to slope their shoulders and fob you off.

 

You could write to the OC and ask for a copy of the credit agreement, however I would be inclined to write back to Eversheds and state that under s175 of the CCA they have a legal obligation as the agent of the OC to pass on your CCA request. I would also ask them for a copy of their complaints procedure as they seem to be ignoring this legal obligation.

 

If they don't resolve your complaint you can report them to the FOS who will charge them £400 for just investigating the complaint.

Looks to me like a standard letter where the link to the name of the 'original finance company' should have been in a mailmerge. I have sent CCA letters to several DCA's (not including eversheds) and in each case they have written back to say they have asked the original lender for the documents. Looks like serious laziness on Eversheds' part. Incidentally I have had three replies today where they regret (!!!) they can't find the agreement - that added to the two who have already replied including MBNA who have said i won't be hearing from them again :D I suppose you will have to contact the original lender yourself and send another pound - disgraceful!!

BANK CHARGES

Nat West Bus Acct £1750 reclaim - WON

I asked the missus and she says she does not know wheather the DCA is acting as agent or have purchased the debt. Im inclined to think agent as she only started struggling to pay it 1 year ago when it was passed on and has kept up the £1 a month payment since then.

 

Funny thing is this debt is for £7k and they accept £1 a month ... How do these people make money ??

I dont want to be a pain but im not very good at wording letters.

 

Could someone give me a idea what to write with regards to the DCA saying to contact the original finance company.

 

Im aware that they should have this paperwork so I want them to know that I know they have a legal obglation to supply me with this information and for them to send it.

 

Will there 12 days still run from the first letter I sent if I send another request ?

 

Thanks for any help.

Or should I just sit and wait for the 12 +2 +30 days to pass and then contact them.

I agree with Ben, just give them a little rope and they will hang themselves. Your complaint always looks better when they have chased you after failing to provide an agreement.

My missus recieved another letter today from cabot who we also CCA'd

 

Could someone advise if this is just a standard template cabot use and should I disregard it and continue counting the days. They also returned the £1 postal order and its been added to my files incase its ever needed to make a complaint against this company, which if we can we will.

 

Has anyone else had this letter and what happened in the following weeks ?

Standard template....just file it. Again you don't need to do anything until they produce an agreement.

Another thing, why have they returned the fee starting they do not accept this staturory fee.

Is this done in good faith or is this done to complicate things or try and worm out of it ?

Some accept it some don't, it makes no difference to their legal obligation to comply with your request.

  • 3 weeks later...

OK the nice people at Cabot replyed today.

Now im pretty sure (around 99.9%) that this is an application form and NOT and CCA.

But my missus needs her arm twisting to believe me so could someone please comment on the following scan.

Please note the clue that its an application in the bottom left.

 

Is this enforcable ?

 

There is no APR, no credit limit, the form was filled in by hand by my missus.

 

If not what is the next corse of action to take.

 

many thanks.

 

Ash.

Well if you can't read it it doesn't comply with the Act anyway. Copies have to be legible.

Lets assume its an application form which im pretty sure it is. I cannot see the APR or a credit limit.

 

It says on it (which you cant see in the scan but I can make out)

If your application for this credit card is approved blah blah blah

 

So what would the next step be ? SHould we write to them stating this is not a CCA ?

 

Thanks
