    • 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.

This is a good point. The thing is the documentation fee should never have been treated as part of loan. Do you know if this would could be related to some sort of "unfair terms" law/act?

 

you need to look in the legal section or ask one of the mods as i KNOW i read a case somewhere where the judge ruled that the charging of interest on the documentation fee blew the case apart

 

trouble is- ive read so much i cant remember where it was

Ok the prescribed terms arent on that document but some of them appear to be on the other document you posted originally and item number 3 in your photobucket account. However you can only read a little bit of the repayments part and I cant see anything about a credit limit. I would say its illegible and therefore unenforceable until they provide a better copy.

'Prescribed Terms'.

What am I looking for specifically?

You are right tho - the copies arent great - the form is clearer and legible but the other doc is not - even when I blow it up.

thanks

Got it ! thankyou so much -

Ah HA!!!

So - it seems the rate of interest is not in the main body of the agreement. Only on the separate t&c doc. I also think the 'repayment' section is possibly lacking.

Do I just SAR them now?

 

This is brill.

Thanks for all the help!

For what? If you have charges on this account then yes a sar would help to reduce the balance.

 

Otherwise if the CCA is not compliant then its unenforceable, they will know this but expect you to not.

I must misunderstand the purpose of SAR. I thought I needed it in case they try to push it further, which I am sure they will. But yes there is interest at least on there which I asked them to freeze in January but which they refused to do.

 

So - now I just write and give them a 'yah boo sucks' kinda letter???

Which one?

double brill!!!

I just need time - before they dump me in a pile of doo doo!

Ah - hold on - What about if the interest rates are part of T&Cs and these are on the REVERSE of the application form. Does that mean they are 'within the main body' of the agreement?

it is my understanding that the prescribed terms cannot be "scattered" around within the general t & C's

Unfortunately the key is in the "unregulated" bit, so there is nothing to say what should and shouldnt go in an agreement.

 

However one avenue could be if the agreement can be shown to be unfair possibly under CPUTR2008 you might have a case.

John, I can see your details, you need to go over with the black marker a few times!

 

Check your sums, if they are charging you interest on the loan protection insurance then this agreement is unenforceable. It looks like they may have lumped it all together and then charged interest on the whole, in which case this is exactly what they shouldn't have done. See the judgement on Spurway as well, they should have used the term 'Amount of credit' to separate out what amount is actually being given to you on credit, they have only used the terms 'loan', 'cash loan' and 'total loan' which the Spurway judgement says is not sufficient.

Man, that is the biggest scan I've ever seen go up on site!:smile:

 

Redfish is asking you to check your statements and find out if interest is being applied to the combination of the loan and PPI; they're not allowed to that! PPI is a separate thing altogthere and should never be combined with the 'loan'.

 

You need to spend a bit of time on this site - be pro-active - and learn how to understand what is enforceable and what is not. USe the search engine on this site to find the Spurway case and read up on it. The term 'loan' is not sufficient.

 

It's not easy trying to sort this stuff out so you need to dig your papers out and have a root around here. Also, what I would do is stay your appointment with the bank manager and learn a little bit more here so that when you do go and see him you can back up your reasons for citing the agreement as unenforceable instead of stammering when he asks you why you think it so.
