    • Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.  
    • This is simply a scam site.  It's been shown to be a scam in the national press and on national TV. Please fill in the the forum sticky and upload the invoice you've received. In fact what you have is an invoice, not a fine, a private company doesn't have the power to issue fines.

    • 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.

No, think you'll be fine. All your really doing is outlining what it will cost them if they went to court, at least that would be my interpritation. You could also re-submit an amended one if you wanted. I've read posts where people have done the same as you to no ill effect.

Good luck.

Does the amount your asking for in the L.B.A include the 8% or is it just the spreadsheet that has the 8% included on it. If it's the latter i wouldn't bother amending anything. If the total on the L.B.A has it included resubmit both.

As above it is really nothing to worry about, I forgot to delete the 8% column too and everything seems to have gone ok, Just waiting for them to actually credit my money back to my account.

thank you very much for your kind words of encouragement sue1970 and dingwalldemon. I've resubmitted my LBA and scedule of charges, without the 8%. In reply to your question dingwalldemon, I think the financial ombudsman will be my choice. The claim will be for £4750, inc the 8%. Unless anyone can advise court rather than the ombudsman?

The bad news is, at the moment the Ombudsman is not taking on any complaints about bank charges due to the ongoing OFT v The Banks high court case. I think you can still go down the N1 route taking them to court although im not 100% sure, i'm sure someone else will jump in here and give you further advice. Don't be put off trying to reclaim the charges you'll find loads of help on this forum.

I went the FOS way and received an offer of all charges + interest. I received this offer just before the test case was announced and have accepted. I still wait to see whether I actually receive the cash. Looking through the site I have come across posts saying that you should carry on any action through the small claims route but any cases are likely to have a stay placed on them until the test case result which will probably take until next year. Look at the threads you will see when you first sign onto the forum for further info and carry on as before but be prepared to be patient. Good Luck.

Trickyt:rolleyes:

True the FOs have said they won't look at complaints, I'm going to chuck in a complaint to them (I've already been fobbed off by the FSA). I'm also going to see my MP after my bro's court case, this whole issues is a scandel in my opinion!!!

The views I express here are mere speculation based on my experience. I am not qualified nor insured to give legal advice and any action you take will be at your own risk.
