    • I do disagree with you regarding one thing - we are not very good with letters or these situations and are slow on the uptake. So far you have stood up to Excel and their threats, immediately given us the information in the sticky, done loads of reading up to educate yourselves, learnt from the mistake of outing the driver so you'll know not to do so in the future, got on to the organ grinder to try to get them to call off their dogs, etc., etc.  Good grief - we wish everyone who came here would do this!!! Most people who get these invoices sadly think they have been fined and if they don't pay a drone from Ukraine will be diverted and will fall on their home (or some such vague grand apocalyptic threat) and they fold and give in.  You haven't.  Well done. Don't worry - you won't be paying a penny.  Although it will take some time to see off this vile company.
    • Spot on!  You learn quickly. Who cares if the case gets sent to debt collectors?  They have no powers.  All the effort you will have to put in will be to open envelopes - and then spend time laughing at their daft "threats".  No stress at all!
    • I did ask them why, but seems they have more spare cash than we do .. ;-( .. I doubt their bank would even support a chargeback after a year has passed. Anyway I've constructed my first DRAFT Snotty Letter .. so here goes ..   RE: PCN 4xxxxx Dear ALLIANCE PARKING Litigation Dept, Thank you for your dubious Letter Of Claim (dated 29th April 2024) of £100 for just 2 minutes of overstay. The family rolled around on the floor in amazement of the idea you actually think they’d accept this nonsense, let alone being confused over the extra unlawful £70 you had added. Shall we raise that related VAT issue with HMRC, or perhaps the custodians of the unicorn grain silos? Apart from the serious GDPR breach you’ve made with the DVLA and your complete failure in identifying the driver, we’re dumbfounded that the PCN is still not compliant with the PoFA (2012 Schedule 4 Under Section 9.2.f) even after 12 years of pathetic trial and error. We also doubt a judge would be very impressed at your bone idleness and lack of due diligence regarding the ANPR entry / exit periods compared with actual valid parking periods. Especially with no consideration of the legally allowed grace periods and the topological nature of the Cornish landscape versus a traditional multi-storey. And don’t even get us started on the invisible signage during the ultra busy bank holiday carnage, that is otherwise known as the random parking chaos in the several unmarked over-spill fields, or indeed the tedious “frustration of contract” attempting to get a data connection to Justpark.  We suggest your clients drop this extreme foolishness or get an absolute hammering in court. We are more than ready to raise the issues with a fair minded judge, who will most likely laugh your clients out in less time than it takes to capture more useless ANPR photos. We will of course be requesting “an unreasonable costs order” under CPR 27.14.2.g and put it toward future taxis to Harlyn Bay instead.  We all look forward to your clients' deafening silence. Legal Counsel on behalf of the Vehicle Keeper.  
    • Hi,t I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right subsection but General Retail appears to be the closest to it I think... About a year and a half ago I got a new phone so I listed my iPhone 10 on eBay.  The listed stated 'UK only' and 'no returns accepted'. Considering I had had the phone for about 4 years, I myself was amazed that I had kept it in such good condition all that time - apart from being slightly scuffed around the charging port there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. It had the original box, its unopened original Apple cable, plug, and earbuds, and I threw in a case for it and It had always had a screen protector on it. Someone wanted it from Armenia, and I stupidly agreed to it.  She paid and I sent it off, fully insured. Not long after she received it, she sent a message saying it 'was not as described', so I asked to see photos of whatever was the problem.  She sent two photographs of the box.  Just the box.  I said I wasn't even going to consider refunding her unless she told me what she meant by 'not as described'.  I thought, if it's been damaged in transit, then it would be covered by the insurance. Anyway, she didn't respond at all, even though I had messaged her several times, so she opened a case with eBay. I have sold a fair few things of mine on eBay in the past buy had never had had anyone come back to me asking for a refund.  I got in touch with eBay several times by phone and by email, and found out they always side with the buyer, no matter what with their 'eBay Seller Guarantee'.  She had been told she could keep the phone and told me they would recover the money from me from my account blah blah.  So I unlinked all of my cards etc and changed my bank account to one that I never use with no money in it. My account got suspended.  I continued to try to explain to eBay that I had been scammed but I got nowhere. My account was permanently inaccessible by this point. I reported the phone stolen and the IMEI blacklisted but I'm not sure if that would make any difference being in Armenia, but it was all I could think of to piss the buyer off. A couple of months later I was contacted by email by a debt recovery company (I can' remember who now), to whom I explained I will not discuss the matter with them until I had received an SAR I had requested from eBay. As I could no longer access my account, I couldn't review the communication I needed to show I was not in the wrong. The SAR was produced but I was advised that the information I was looking for would not be included but I said I wanted it anyway.  There were so many codes etc. and hoops to jump through to access it, that even after trying whilst on the phone to them, I still couldn't get into it, so I never got to see it in the end.  I think they said they would send the code by post but they never did and I forgot about it after a while. I've just come across a couple of emails from Moorgroup, asking me to phone them to discuss a private matter regarding eBay.  I haven't replied or done anything at all yet.  The amount they are trying to recover from me is £200ish from what I remember. I know it's not that much but I don't want to pay the b*astards on general principle. I've had a lot of useful advice from CAG in the past about debt collectors but it has always been about being chased by creditors, I've never been in this situation before. I don't know what power they legally have to recover the 'debt', and most importantly, I am two years into a DRO, and the last thing I want is another CCJ to shake off if I'm cutting my nose off to spite my face.   Any advice gratefully received!!

    • 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.

A case management hearing is not a trial, it attempts to set out directions for the hearing, and deal with questions such as if their case is clear or not.

i will be off site for the next month or so. if you have any problems, feel free to report the post so a moderator can help you.

 

I am not a qualified or practicing lawyer.

Hey Popeye1

 

ive found your thread, took me a while to get here so sorry for the delay,

 

ok if its ok with you i will post up a full response in the morning as in very tired and about to hit the sack

 

suffice to say, dont worry a case management conference will not be the final hearing, its purely to issue directions and to discuss how the case will be managed and address any points which require clarification so please try not to worry.

 

as i said i will post a full reply in the morning when im refreshed

 

Kind regards

paul

Alrighty then,

 

ok,

 

ive had a read through you thread briefly, and im afraid i have some questions

 

 

firstly , i note you have had an Allocation Questionairre from the court, now im assuming it was an N149.

 

when you submitted the AQ, did you ask for any directions?

 

Also, have you been supplied a copy of the credit agreement they are relying upon in the case? either by way oif a CCA request or CPR request or anyother means

 

also, have you had a default notice? or a copy of it

 

and have you had a copy of the Notice of Assignment? or a copy of the Deed of Assignment?

 

 

when i get a reply to the questions i will be in a much better position to advise you further

 

my guess is that the hearing will be to give directions as to what documents the judge considers required to be produced for hearing

 

this is why im asking these questions as we need to be prepared when you go in, to ask the judge to consider ordering disclosure

 

can i also ask who the claimant is in this case and what was the debt for.

Ok

 

I did have a AQ but i failed to to keep a copy ,it was sent back to the court.

 

Turn/ruth/sols have sent a copy of their AQ [No is N150].

Amount claimed on AQ is differant from amount on court claim form,.[not a lot though].

I am not sure what ,any directions, means so i dont think i asked for any if that makes any sense.

 

I sent CPR letter the one asking for ,a true copy ,any docs you seek to rely in court and copies of assignment plus a CCA request letter, all sent to solicitors address on court claim form, recordered and tracked, electronic proof of delivery.

I have received no paperwork at all

I sent copys of letters to the courts

 

The court claim came out of the blue, unless we missed a letter they have not given us any warning this was going to happen

ok well thats good,

 

thanks for letting me know,

 

 

what i mean by directions are for example youve asked the judge to order the claimant disclose all documents they intend to rely upon etc

 

 

 

In the ************* County Court

Claim number **********

 

 

 

 

Between

************* - Claimant

and

 

xxxxxxxxxx - Defendant

 

 

 

Draft Order for Directions

The Claimant shall within 14 days of service of this order send to the Defendant and to the Court:

  • Copies of the Credit Agreement and any documents referred to within it which complies with the consumer Credit Act 1974 and all subsequent regulations
  • Default Notice compliant with s87 (1) Consumer Credit Act 1974 andConsumer Credit (Enforcement, Default and Termination Notices) Regulations 1983 (SI 1983/1561) as amended,
  • Document, contract or deed of assignment
  • Notice of assignment, with proof of service of the same compliant with s196 of the Law of Property Act 1925.
  • Copies of any statement or other document relied upon

If the Claimant fails to comply with this order, the claim will be struck out without further order.

 

The Defendant shall within 14 days thereafter file and serve the following

  • An amended defence sufficiently particularised in response to the documents supplied by the claimant

If the Defendant fails to comply with this order, the Defence will be struck out without further order.

 

 

 

these are the type of direction i normally send with an allocation questionairee

 

not to worry,

 

give me a little time and i will put together some pointers for you

Hi Popeye,

 

the difference is basically a credit card is exactley that credit, however a charge card is one where a balance in full is paid off at teh end of each month therefore no credit is provided in essence within the meaning of credit under the CCA

ok, im going to put together a skeleton arguement which you can hand the judge and the other side at the hearing

 

 

'i would also suggest that we hand the judge a draft order for directions too but leave that with me

Hey Popeye,

 

dont try to remember it!!!!!

 

you will end up confusing yourself. my suggestion was that i put together a skeleton arguement outlining for the judge the issues that are relevent and that need addressing

 

that way you can read a simplified outline of the relevent facts

 

 

ive drafted this Skeleton arguement which i would take to the court with you along with the directions which i posted earlier, i would take 3 copies of each so that you can offer one copy to the judge and one to the other side,

 

i think it outlines the case and the issues which are causing the troubles for the judge, so he will see what is needed and what must be ordered

please have a good read through, if you find something which doesnt make sense then ASK cause the trouble i have is that i was looking at this case remotely, i dont have all the facts or info like you do

 

regards

paul

Hello,

 

its something you could add,

 

the purpose of what ive drawn up is to help you to set out the issues that are causing the troubles for the judge, and in doing so it will help the judge to issue the correct directions which are basically orders as to who must do what and by what time etc

 

that is where you should use the directions in post 80, print it out and hand a copy to the judge at the hearing

 

and ask if hes in agreement to order those directions as they will bring a quick resolution to the matter

 

regards

'paul
