    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................

    • 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 sheba0207

 

 

you are in the right place to get help and advice on your situation

 

 

My first thoughts were, as it is clear that you are struggling with your situation it would be a good idea to establish that the debt which you are being pursued for is legally enforcable.

 

any creditor who is pursuing you need to have a valid credit agreement in place and you would be surprised how many dont,

 

you need to send a CCA request to each of your creditors Creditors and DCAs - Letter Templates & Budget Planner use letter N and send this letter along with a one pound postal order and do NOT sign any more letters to any of your creditors instead, print in block capital or use a digital signature such as here Digital Signature Guide

 

send it recorded delivery or if you can special delivery as you will need proof of delivery

 

Regards

paul

once you send the CCA request, your creditors have 12 working days to comply, if they do not respond in 12 working days from reciept of th letter, the debt enters what is called a default situation under the Consumer Credit Act 1974. when they enter into default of your request you can withold payment legally until they comply, if they fail to comply and the 12 working days has passed and a further 30 calender days pass they have committted a criminal offence.and you would make a complaint to trading standards who will possibly take up your case depending on the circumstances

 

If your creditor do reply with a document they claim to be your credit agreement then come back to us and we will advise further as many credit agreements dont contain legally required information which again renders the agreement unenforcable

 

if you have any questions please dont hesitate to ask

 

 

Kind Regards

paul

Hi Sheba0207

 

i think it may be wise if you started your own thread on this

 

ok if it was a littlewoods catalogue debt, then there is a high chance that the debt is unenforcable. i am in battle with Littlebrains sorry littlewoods :D

 

i have come accross many acounts on here where littlewoods dont have enforcable agreements so there is hope

 

heres a link to my thread with littlewoods, it will give you something to read http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/general-debt/93571-pt2537s-cca-request-against.html#post859843 and will give you an idea of what happens next.

 

you need to CCA MoorCrap as they are the ones pursuing you at the mo. i would lay money on it that they wont have a agreement on file as moorcrap dont check things like this. i think they hope that consumers dont know their rights and wont ask

 

still fortunatley youve found the CAG:D

I would say if you can afford to pay it, then its up to you. if you cant then thats that

 

the main thing is that you send the CCA request via recorded delivery as this means that you have placed the account into dispute and the DCA should suspend ALL collection activity while they investigate your dispute

 

at this stage you should hold off sending them any income details until they have established they have a legal right to collect this debt!!

 

when they respond let us know and we can take a look at what (if anything) they send to see if its legally enforcable. send the CCA request as detailed above and sit back and wait for the 12 working days to go by

 

regards

paul

Update.....I received a letter from Moorcroft stating that they do not have a copy of my CCA, all went really quiet for several weeks. I received a telephone call this morning from Cabot, I said in writing only please....does this now mean that Argos or Moorcroft have sold the debt on. Can I ask for proof that they do own it or do I CCA them or ????

As pecky says, wait until you get something in writing from Cabot. You don't need to send the another CCA you just need to reference them to the one you already sent to Moorcroft.

HAVE YOU BEEN TREATED UNFAIRLY BY CREDITORS OR DCA's?

Well as Moorcroft have defaulted your CCA then Cabot are urinating into the wind.

 

I they continue to demand payment after this letter then a report to Trading Standards would be in order as they are chasing an unsubstantiated debt.

Edit as needed

ACCOUNT IN DISPUTE

Dear Sir or Madam,

Account number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

 

I must admit that I am rather bemused as to why this account has been passed to yourselves, as it is in dispute with the **original creditor/DCA** and has been since DATE 2007.

Not only is this a breach of OFT collection guidelines, but also in breach of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and Data Protection Act 1998

 

My last letter from **original creditor/DCA** was DATE and intimated that my complaint would be

resolved on **DATE**, this obviously hasn’t happened.

As **original creditor/DCA** are now in default of my Consumer Credit Act request, OFT Collection Guidelines, *Subject Access request and have also breached *s10 Data Protection Act request , I consider this account to be in SERIOUS DISPUTE.

 

As you are aware while my Consumer Credit Act request remains in default enforcement action is NOT permitted, under s127 this constitutes a complete defence at law.

 

Consequentially any legal action you pursue will be averred as both UNLAWFUL and VEXATIOUS.

 

Now I would respectfully suggest that this account is returned to the **original creditor/DCA** for resolution of these defaults and breaches, as **New DCA** cannot lawfully pursue any enforcement activities.

 

If **New DCA** chooses to ignore my dispute and attempt enforcement, I will initiate legal action and file reports with the appropriate authorities, including, but not limited to, Trading Standards, Office of Fair Trading, Information Commissioners Office, Financial Ombudsman Service and possible court action.

 

After taking advice, I am of the opinion that any continued pursuit is in violation of the Administration of Justice Act 1970 section 40 as well as breaching a number of the OFT Collection Guidelines

 

I hope that this will not be necessary and an acceptable solution can be accomplished.

 

I would appreciate your due diligence in this matter.

I look forward to hearing from you in writing.

 

Yours faithfully

Enjoy

Be VERY careful whose advice you listen too

Now received a letter from Cabots, basically saying that they own the debt and will continue to chase me for payment.....I know I shouldn't ring them but I did. I spoke to someone & explained that this account was seriously in dispute and has been for a long time. They said well we didn't know that......I asked for a deed of assignment, they said they were unable to provide me with that & weren't entitled to show me it. I also told them to take me off their dialer system whilst this account was in dispute.....they agreed:D ..........
