    • I googled "prescribed disability" to see where it is defined for the purposes of S.92. I found HMRC's definition, which included deafness. I don't  think anyone is saying deaf people cant drive, though! digging deeper,  Is it that “prescribed disability” (for the purposes of S.88 and S.92) is defined at: The Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1999 WWW.LEGISLATION.GOV.UK These Regulations consolidate with amendments the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations 1996...   ….. and sleep apnoea / increased daytime sleepiness is NOT included there directly as a condition but only becomes prescribed under “liability to sudden attacks of disabling giddiness or fainting” (but falling asleep isn't fainting!), so it isn’t defined there as a “prescribed disability”  Yet, under S.92(2)(b) RTA 1988 “ any other disability likely to cause the driving of a vehicle by him in pursuance of a licence to be a source of danger to the public" So (IMHO) sleep apnea / daytime sleepiness MIGHT be a prescribed disability, but only if it causes likelihood of "driving being a source of danger to the public" : which is where meeting / not meeting the medical standard of fitness to drive comes into play?  
    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.

    • 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.

Hi to All on this site!

 

My tale to date with MBNA?

Reclaiming Credit Card Fees. After HSBC, First Direct and Halifax I though MBNA would eventual result in my favor. I have a ongoing fight

with Citi,that is a fight?

 

Initaily, I rejected the first offer then accepted the total amount.

MBNA then added the total settlement to the DCA (Debt Clear Recoveries & Investigations Ltd).

As I have'nt been paid apart from the first offer which I still have the cheque uncashed. I receive a letter from the acting DCA an increase to my debt?

To my eventful suprise the total offer has been placed in the DCA accounts as a added increase to the debt.

 

It does seem I have been penalize twice.This I believe was to disguise the so called goodwill payments offer? But what the stupid buggers have forgotten was to pay me in the first place.

 

I have wrote to them questioning the sequence of they dumness and have given them 10 days before I start actions in court regarding penalty fees and secondary penalty fee. I have said this will incur contractual and statutory interest plus costs?

 

I would like to know if this has been seen before?

Please let me know of what you think!!!!!!!:?:

Hi Gc

 

Wecome to the MBNA?

 

Since the start of the postal strikes I will have give them some more time to respond. Then I will claim collectively. So no is your answer!!

I do need to know if I address collective to MBNA or 'do' them both seperately?

Oh I'am so sorry what I have just read on your thread Gc...

 

As Enron says yours 'The Judge' was it seems in fixed mind therefore not playing the GAME! However, Enron suggests that because the OFT ruling is NOT against credit Card penalties then why has'nt it been heard and dealt with? You where in court for that reason?

I do not understand, and further more is this a discretionary reaction to the OFT ruling or just plane discerning.

Hi Ice

thanks for your support, it didnt realy matter that they failed to comply to the draft order for full disclosure, the judges mind was made up before we went in, he wasnt interested in hearing from either side and although I pointed out to him that the OFTs test case was against bank accounts and not credit card fees he was having none of it and said all cases of this kind whether its bank accounts or credit card accounts would be stayed, another day Ice, I can wait..GC

Hi Gc

Just sending a letter to MBNA asking why their have'nt sent the agreed payment as per offer.

I only wish a small explaination?

 

As to you and it seems to others as well, are we all on the I CAN WAIT LIST.

Maybe you should ask a Mod to set up a sticky and poll dealing with issues like this cos it's only bank overdraft charges that are being stayed NOT credit cards, the OFT has already dealt with them by saying £12 is the limit.

 

The this site and MSE can look at what is going on and, as part of consultation in this ongoing case with the OFT etc, they may get the authorities to clarify the issue.

Ha ha Ice I like it "I can wait list" hope it dosnt turn into "your not getting your money back" list :eek: seriously though I hope that now my claims been stayed it dosnt mean all credit card claims are treated the same way, im sure theres a letter on the site objecting to calims being stayed and anyway when the OFT rule on bank accounts, would they rule that, the will bring action over £12 like they did with credit card fees, I cant see the costs being thet much different..Gc

Hi Lemma, yes I think your quite right, over the weekend il have a look around all the credit card claims and find out how many are being stayed, although I believe that it could only be mine up to now..Gc

I'm a member on another site - MSE - and I have pm'ed Martin Lewis about this issue this am. He has asked me to clarify if the DJ just imposed this stay in you or did he do it on application from MBNA?

 

I got the distinct impression that he imposed it - am i right?

 

As soon as I hear anything I shall get back to you - i have only sought clarification and asked him to add it to the ongoing issues that require further consultation on.

 

I think you should pm a mod and ask them to set up a sticky on the main board about this so that more people can see that there may be a problem and actually clarify how many times this is happening.

In theory we should be able to continue with claims about Credit Cards, but in practice they seem to be "stayed" quite a lot too..

 

No-one can answer this one for you. Personally, with my claim to Barclaycard I have decided to wait a while....

 

There is a thread somewhere regarding which courts are more likely to grant stays than others, maybe check out your local one and see?

I won against MBNA, Nat West , Barclays, Barclaycard and PPI payments from Barclaycard

Abbey National still to go.... what will I do with my spare time?

Hi Gc

 

What a nice reminder. Good to hear from you. All quite on the western front!!!!

 

Recieved a very unexceptated letter and cheque from MBNA today.£111.58? The whole amount plus 58p interest?????

Guess that something is happening from other world of banking.It seems strange with (Barclay,NorthernRock & others?) are somewhat demure of the denounce stance taken after the financial mis-management of their own affairs?

Could be all in our favour!!!!!!

 

Keep in touch Gc
