    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...

    • 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.

Barclays did not respond to my time-scale by not replying before 14th June.

 

They sent me a letter on the 30th May in relation to my request for a retirn of charges, promising that they would reply to me no later than 22nd June 06. I received my reply- yes, you guessed - 22nd June.

 

In any case my Letter before Action letter was sent on the 14th June, so in any case they have until 28th June to pay up - notherwise court action.

 

Their letter dated 22nd June expains that they are aware of this type of complaint and that I was made aware of their terms and conditions and subsequent changes including their charging scales etc. However, due to the inherent costs of court action they are willing to amke an offer of around 40% of the claim.

 

Their letter is persuasive but does not answer my points raised to them in letters. They seem to fail to understand that I know what the charges are, but the fact is that they are illegal - unless they can prove otherwise.

 

My reply is as follows:

 

Thank you for your letter dated 19th June 2006 in connection with my request for you to refund charges levied against me over the past six years, albeit your letter being sent on the very last day by which Barclays Plc informed they would respond. As I have detailed later in my letter , Barclays plc did not respond within my reasonable time-scales.

Firstly, I have perused your letter and regret to inform you that I will not be accepting your offer for the sum of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and cite the reasons for this as detailed in previous correspondence. However, I must stress that Barclays plc have clearly not addressed the issues detailed in my letters and I consider that your repeated representations that your charges are fair and reasonable are deceptive and that they have deceived me into agreeing to pay them and prevented me from asserting my right until now.

On the 6th June 2006 I wrote to Barclays plc giving until 14th June 2006 to reply to my request. I am disappointed that Barclays plc did not adhere to this time-scale, especially as on the 6th June I asked Barclays plc to provide reasons for why it should take until 22nd June to reply. Furthermore, my initial letter to Barclays requesting the refund was sent on the 16th May 2006.

In line with my fair and reasonable time-scale, which as detailed above you failed to meet, on the 14th June 2006, I sent a letter before court action to Barclays plc giving 14 days to reflect on my request before court proceedings would be initiated.

I remind Barclays plc that if I have not heard from you agreeing to refund the charges in full by the 28th June 2006, I will initiate court proceedings without further notice.

Yours faithfully

Hi

I got to this stage and they did not enter a defense in time. The deadline was midnight yesterday. I will be entering judgement via the moneyclaim site later today as per the advice on here and from the moneyclaim phone line.

Sounds as though you are a week or behind my claim. Apparently they could now claim they did not receive the paperwork. We'lls see what happens.

Good luck

Barclays defence received 4th August 2006. On the very last day by which they had to sumbit their defence. Hmmm- just like when I requested they return my charges, they replied (ignoring my timetable) saying they would get back to me no later than 22nd June 06 - Yes- they replied bang on the 22nd June.

 

I'll post their defence on this thread when I get a chance, but I'm sure it's pretty much the same as all of the others submitted.

 

I guess I now wait for the Allocation Questionairre. Should Barclays settle before the court date, I think I will write to the court suggesting that no new evidence came to light than what was available at the beginning of the claim and that Barclays are abusing the court system by dragging out cases when they always intend to settle.

Moneyclaim showed Barclays had submitted a defence. I got a letter 3 days later from the Court with a copy of their defence and my AQ.

 

I sent the AQ back and am now waiting for a date from the Court.

 

So I guess you need to sit back

When Barclays submitted their defence, I never received an Allocation Questionairre to return to the court.

 

All other people seem to hav edone so. I telephoned the court who said this is a busy time of year and the papers are with the District Judge.

 

Is this normal procedure with the AQ etc? I received their defence 4th August

1st September - At last I have received Barclays defence from the court, together with the Allocation Questionnaire.

 

Now I have a few questions.

 

The AQ form is N150.

 

1)Management information – I am a Witness but what should I put under Witness to which facts?

 

2)Section F proposed directions – I ticked yes for this section. Mainly because I have inclided notes about Standard Disclousure in the Other Information section. Is this correct

 

3)Other information - Do you intend to make any applications in the immediate future? What does this mean? I presume I tick No!!

 

Finally, do I need to send details of my other evidence such as Unfair Contracts Act? Or do I wait until a later time for evidence?

 

Advice much appreciated.

Update - Allocation questionnaire returned to the courts on 13th September 06.I'm now waiting for a court date.

 

I understand Barclays keep quiet until a few days before the hearing and then make an offer - possibly omitting the 8% interest and with a confidentiality clause.

 

They won't from me as I expect the full interest and the only way they can get me to sign a confidentiality clause is by buying it from me.

 

I'm quite willing to go to court - should the need arise.

Court bundle delivered To Barclays 9th November and Court on the 10th November. Got home on the 10th November evening and their it was - a letter from Barclays to settle in full - with confidentiality.

 

I've crossed that bit out about confidentiality and as long as they are happy with that , the money should soon be in my account.

 

I don't know why thay agreed to settle so soon - not like them.

 

Anyway, I'm not celebrating until the money is in the account.

 

All I can say is that the bundle was the standard stuff in the templates with a couple of 'standard automated letters' as evidnece and the report from the northern Irish Competition Committe - - but the whole document was 200 pages.

 

I did, however, also request the amount of all their charges from 1989 to date, including all revisions. I also asked for the terms and conditions from 1989 and all amendmnets to date.

 

I'll update when/If I get the money.

I've received my statement from Barclays which shows that they paid up in full (well almost) on the 21st November 2006.

 

I mean that they almost paid up in full because I inadvertently agreed to their offer which only had interest included from July and not November.

 

Anyway the money plus interest is back where it belongs.

 

Everyone else keep going and don't panic becuae as long as you follow the procedures and guidance on the site , you will win.
