    • I had some contact with this company earlier in my working life but I'm afraid there's not a lot I can suggest that you haven't already done. During your grandfather's time  British Celanese was a subsidiary of Courtaulds. Courtaulds was subsequently acquired by Alzo Nobel. They in turn closed down the Spondon site and sold it. I have no idea what the number is that you are trying to call. It's a Derby (Spondon) area code but the number appears not to be allocated. From my slim knowledge of the history of the company I would have expected your grandfather's pension to be in the Alzo Nobel (CPS) Pension Scheme.  But Willis Tower Watson are the Pension Scheme Administrator of that scheme and would be the people who would know if your grandfather had contributed. Is your grandfather certain he contributed? Joining pension schemes wasn't compulsory in those days. Or might he have got his contributions returned when he left them? That happened sometimes in those days. Sorry not to.be of more help.      
    • I am sorry I am not aware of this report from IAS assessors? The Court will consider my application at a online hearing in June. The Court instructed me to send Bank copies of my sons condition proving he could not have been the driver I have heard nothing further. My son is not aware of any proceedings I have not involved him to avoid causing him distress, he has been sectioned a fair few times and I need to avoid this happening.
    • I am very pleased that the Court has taken the decision to allow you to  represent your son and hope that he is happy enough with that to relieve the stress he will also be feeling. I do agree that Bank parking are so insensitive, greedy, horrible etc etc to continue proceedings considering  in what it is a very minor case of a wrong number plate . Even their  own  IAS Assessors, who are normally hopelessly biased in favour of their members, went out on a limb and said  " The Operator's evidence shows no payment for the Appellant's vehicle, or anything similar. It does show two payments for the same registration in quick succession. I would take a reasonable guess, based on the circumstances described, that the person paying has paid for the registration of the person they assisted again." That is damning evidence and you must take that report with you as well as including that in your Witness Statement which we will help you with. I would expect that Bank would discontinue the case at that point.  But I am sorry to say  that you should not count on it.  
    • Evening all,   I have deliberated over this offer for two weeks and I have decided to take their offer. I do understand that some may prefer us to go to court and receive a judgement but with our personal circumstances and my current military commitment that could become an issue. I am so grateful for all the help and support you have all offered me over the last few months. I will continue to monitor this site and push all those that are being wrong to get in touch.   Thank you! what you all do is truly amazing!
    • When I first responded to the PAPLOC, and received that 29 page junk back it was accompanied with a letter saying that they had already responded to my request back on Feb 18th 2023,(I never received it). I was just clearing out some paperwork today and found a letter from Lowell, dated Feb 17th 2023, explaining that they were still waiting for the documents from PayPal, and my account was on hold  until further notice.  Does this mean they were lying and can it be used against them if this goes any further? I have now filed my defence, and have had an acknowledgement from Overdales and the court. A little threatening from Overdales , explaining that part of my defence was invalid because they have now complied with the CCA, and they were still waiting for the Default notice from PayPal.

    • 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 Jopickett,

 

Have you sorted and sent in your Court Bundle. If not, do it now.

 

Have you been in touch with the Lit'n Team and told them you have a Full Case Hearing on 30th - they should be willing to settle now so have your up-to-date SOC including s.69 interest to date plus your Court Fees so you have a settlement figure they can agree. Email to Dino and ask who is handling your case so they can settle before the 30th. See here for contact details - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/barclays-bank/94602-barclays-litigation-team-good.html.

 

Good luck, Slick

I'm in my final preparations for tomorrow, used the court bundle from here, didnt send it to court.. so will be taking two copies with me tomorrow.. wander if i'll be ***** for not sending sooner? I spoke to barclays lit team on Friday and although two days previous they had agreed to settle, they told me that they will not be settling now due to the test case.. i'm happy with this in the long run as it will make a differance long term. Do you think Barlays will turn up tomorrow?

Hi Jo,

 

Sorry I didn't get back to you.

 

No, you won't get told off for not handing in a bundle becouse you had an impossible deadline. The CPR state that you should have at least 21 days before a hearing. This is why I said you don't really need anything - the original plan was to request adjournments and seek permission to amend POC's as per the new templates.

 

Now the recent news has hi-jacked the plans a little. The main thing you'll be hoping to achieve tomorrow now is to avoid the case being stayed. Yes, Barclays probably will turn up and they will be arguing for a stay.

 

What times your hearing? We'll see you there tomorrow and we'll bring the stay objections and adjournment requests, etc. It won't do any harm for you to bring your bundle if you want to.

Hi Gary,

 

I'm sure your very busy at the moment so no worries about not geting back to me. My hearing is at 11am. Probably wont bring my bundle then as because of the short time scale it wasnt as well presented as i wanted it. What is the minimum i need to bring (just my court letters?)

 

Thanks

 

Jo

Bring a schedule and your statements, etc. In fact bring the bundle, it won't hurt. Probably won't need it but if you've done it already you may as well.

Hi Slick and all those who are following my progress.

 

So I was in court on Monday... very nervous but thanks to GaryH and Zootscoot for the input. I met the famous Judge.. who agreed to adjourn until next sitting of bank charges... he asked me what contact i had with Barclays and i explained that i'd agreed settlement but not received or heard anything.. I think he agreed to adjourn on the basis that they still might settle... very doubtful though now... or has anyone agred a settlement since the OFT test case was announced?

 

I'm now hoping that when i next appear i will get a stay until the test case results come in, although i'm not too optamistic as the girl in court before me lost her case against barclays.

 

Not much else to tell on it really, feel abit deflated with it all so more poems may cheer me up slick!!!

Jo, Jo, Joey Pickett.

Barclays Bum, you're gonna kick it.

 

God, What have I started - maybe be poetry is all we have while we wait.

 

Seriously, Jo - sorry you're feeling deflated. Were Barclays represented and did you try to have their defence Struck Out for non-compliance. How long is the adjournment.

Good One Moggie... slick is well behind you now!! His ryhming is slipping! ha ha

Barclays weren't represented and it appears that the judge is representing them! (I'm sure he has a blankety barclays cheque book and pen!!!) - this is me trying to make light of my complete farse of a case!

Didn't attempt to get it thrown out as it was a iracle to get it adjourned - judge did this on the basis that I was half way through settling with Barclays... this was before rob saunders did a huge u-turn and backtracked on what he said... So its adjourned til next batch of bank charges at court.

 

Come on Judge

Dont be a grudge

Give me some leeway

before i jump on the freeway

 

Speak soon guys
