    • You will probably get a couple more reminders followed by further demands fro unregulated debt collectors with even increasing amounts to pay. They are all designed to scare you into paying.  Don't. It's a scam site and they do not know who was driving and they know the keeper is not liable to pay the PCN. Also the shop was closed so they have no legitimate interest in keeping the car park clear. So to charge £100 is a penalty as there is no legitimate interest which means that the case would be thrown out if it went to Court.  Keep your money in your wallet and be prepared to ignore all their letters and threats. Doubtful they would go to Court since a lot more people would not pay when they heard  MET lost in Court. However they may just send you a Letter of Claim to test your resolve.  If yoy get one of those, come back to us and we will advise a snotty letter to send them.  You probably already have, but take a look through some of our past Met PCNs to see how they are doing.
    • Hello, been a while since I posted on here, really hoping for the same support an advice I received last time :-) Long, long story for us, but basically through bad choices, bad luck and bad advice ended up in an IVA in 2016. The accounts involved all defaulted, to be expected. In 2018, I got contacted by an 'independent advisor' advising me that I shouldn't be in an IVA, that it wasn't the solution for our circumstances and that they would guide us through the process of leaving the IVA and finding a better solution. I feel very stupid for taking this persons advice, and feel they prey on vulnerable people for their own financial gain (it ended with us paying our IVA monthly contribution to them)-long and short of it our IVA failed in 2018. At the same time the IVA failed we also had our shared ownership property voluntarily repossessed (to say this was an incredibly stressful time would be an understatement!) When we moved to our new (rented) property in August 2018, I was aware that creditors would start contacting us from the IVA failure. I got advice from another help website and started sending off SARs and CCAs request letters. I was advised not to bury my head and update our address etc and tackle each company as they came along. Initially there was quite a lot of correspondence, and I still get a daily missed call from PRA group (and the occasional letter from them), but not much else. However, yesterday i had a letter through from Lowell (and one from Capital One) advising that they had bought my debt and would like to speak with me regarding the account. There will be several.of these through our door i suspect, as we did have several accounts with Capital One. Capital One have written to us with regular statements over the last 5 years, and my last communication with them was to advise of of our new address (June 2019), I also note that all of these accounts received a small payment in Jan2019 (i'm assuming the funds from the failed IVA pot). Really sorry for the long long post, but just thought id give (some of) the background for context.... I guess my question at the moment is.....how do I respond to Lowell...do I wait for the inevitable other letters to arrive then deal with them all together or individually...? Do I send them a CCA?  Many thanks

    • 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.

Paul,

When we wrote to CMS in April, we asked many questions regarding the management of our accounts. But one of the points we raised was the value of the debt on our router accounts, we asked RBS,

"Can you confirm where this information came from and is this the figure that you provide in your accounts to Companies House as an asset of the banks?"

To date they have not responded. How do we find out which figure they are using,the true value of the debt [the figure at judgement less payments made] or the router account debt [ debt at judgement less payments + interest & solicitors fees].

 

Can we SAR the banks auditor or accountants to find the truth ?

 

If they are using the router accounts, does this mean they illegally inflating thier balance sheet, deceiving shareholders & the city ?

Hi Debbbbsy,

 

Paul and myself have reached that exact conclusion ...the bank has said about my Router Account that it is actually my personal account that is just given an internal different number......the problem with this is it bears no resemblance to the balances on my personal account statements....and when I queried this along with my MP we both got the message.......we no longer wish to discuss past transactions on any of your accounts..........................for the simple reason they are falsley manipulated.

on paper I owed RBS £1290.....in truth I owed them £35..... which I paid.

But when the auditors do their accounts this £1290 becomes an asset debt and with a lot more like them are as you said are inflated company accounts and when presented to the international lending banks when RBS WANT TO BORROW MONEY....they get their money because the have all this "nonexisant" money owing. RBS then are able to borrow more money to pay their directors their big fat bonuses for all their fine efforts in creating these router accounts and falsley creating loan agreements like Pauls and a few others.

 

Did you also know that the majority of Nat West and RBS employees don't even know about Router Accounts ....for curiosity just ring a few RBS and Nat West banks up and ask...they wont know what you are talking about.

Only CMS Telford know about these accounts and only CMS Telford can access them on the whole of the Banks computer system.

Its a dead cert your local branch can't you have to have special security clearance to be able to do that.

You have to wonder how many other banks do this.

 

It is well known that account can and are manipulated to produce, (usually) a more favourable cast on a companies trading position.

 

Trouble is, when you have to physical come up with hard cash, as the banks have had to recently, you have a problem. You have to wonder if the banks bought the 'toxic debt', or is some their own creation.

As the router account is a book debt and therefore an asset it is probable that the figure contained in this account is the one used to bolster the banks balance sheets.

 

I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to find the information you need from RBS simply because they don't want further evidence of this type of accounting minipulation brought to the attention of media scources.

 

I strongly suggest you continue to find answers through your MP - make a complaint to the OFT FOS and ICO.

 

Don't forget to add your case to my Router account book debt blog.

Agreed, this is one of the reasons banks are reluctunt to lend money, because they don't trust each others balance sheets.

That statement really does spell out what it's come to. The banks were built on trust, just look what they've done.

RBS are still seeking a civil restraint order against me and an hearing to determine this has been set for two hours in front of a circuit judge in Sheffield.

 

I assume RBS are worried that their so called "router accounts" will be exposed as a source of false accounting, this is why they refused to submit the accounting documents into court and allow a judge to decide.

 

Unfortunatley for the RBS there are two extremely serious ongoing cases involving these accounts and it is my belief that there will be further media exposure.

 

Regards

It's a shame they hadn't just given you what you wanted from the beginning, which would have cost them a lot less than all this in the long run.

 

Take note, bankers, don't mess with a CAG-er...

interesting quote below for all potential whistleblowers , step aboard anytime

 

Can company bosses prevent a member of staff from taking “confidential” information with them when they resign? Not necessarily, says xxxxxxx, our Employment Law Specialist.

 

“Information which you may regard as being classified, is often in the public domain, and if that turns out to be the case, there may be nothing you can do to stop former members of staff taking the information with them.

 

“As a general rule, in order for something to be confidential and owned exclusively by the company, it either has to be a trade secret, or something that you’ve been given in confidence which isn’t public knowledge.

 

“But even this isn’t a cast-iron guarantee, since the courts have recognised that all employees accumulate a certain amount of knowledge about the company which they’re entitled to take with them and use in their next job.”

 

John said there were a number of steps which companies could take to protect themselves.

 

“If you want something to remain confidential, make sure it’s clearly marked as such, and that its importance is flagged up with any employee who has access to it. Also, make sure that the contracts of senior employees and directors include restrictive covenants spelling out the position regarding the use of sensitive data.”:grin::grin::grin::grin::grin:

You defence with regard this injunction hearing should centre around the fact thay what you are attempting to do .....make RBS declare these Router Acconts is of extreme public importance, and to prevent that happening is the ulterior motive of RBS to obtain that injuction they are scared stiff they will be forced to declare them and bring them out in the open.

I will be making this extremely clear when I see my MP Andrew Miller at 12'30am today.

We will get in touch with our MP again to inform him what's happening with yours and Sparkie's issues (if that's OK?). He had already told us that he would talk to your MP a few months ago.

 

You have the name of my MP so please feel free to contact him directly.

 

As you know, it's awkward for us to post here all that is going on in our case for various reasons.

 

When/if we win, it will all be here.
