    • What do you guys think the chances are for her?   She followed the law, they didnt, then they engage in deception, would the judge take kindly to being lied to by these clowns? If we have a case then we should proceed and not allow these blatant dishonest cheaters to succeed 
    • I have looked at the car park and it is quite clearly marked that it is  pay to park  and advising that there are cameras installed so kind of difficult to dispute that. On the other hand it doesn't appear to state at the entrance what the charge is for breaching their rules. However they do have a load of writing in the two notices under the entrance sign which it would help if you could photograph legible copies of them. Also legible photos of the signs inside the car park as well as legible photos of the payment signs. I say legible because the wording of their signs is very important as to whether they have formed a contract with motorists. For example the entrance sign itself doe not offer a contract because it states the T&Cs are inside the car park. But the the two signs below may change that situation which is why we would like to see them. I have looked at their Notice to Keeper which is pretty close to what it should say apart from one item. Under the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4 Section 9 [2]a] the PCN should specify the period of parking. It doesn't. It does show the ANPR times but that includes driving from the entrance to the parking spot and then from the parking place to the exit. I know that this is a small car park but the Act is quite clear that the parking period must be specified. That failure means that the keeper is no longer responsible for the charge, only the driver is now liable to pay. Should this ever go to Court , Judges do not accept that the driver and the keeper are the same person so ECP will have their work cut out deciding who was driving. As long as they do not know, it will be difficult for them to win in Court which is one reason why we advise not to appeal since the appeal can lead to them finding out at times that the driver  and the keeper were the same person. You will get loads of threats from ECP and their sixth rate debt collectors and solicitors. They will also keep quoting ever higher amounts owed. Do not worry, the maximum. they can charge is the amount on the sign. Anything over that is unlawful. You can safely ignore the drivel from the Drips but come back to us should you receive a Letter of Claim. That will be the Snotty letter time.

    • Yes, it was, but in practice we've found time after time that judges will not rule against PPCs solely on the lack of PP.  They should - but they don't.  We include illegal signage in WSs, but more as a tactic to show the PPC up as spvis rather than in the hope that the judge will act on that one point alone. But sue them for what?  They haven't really done much apart from sending you stupid letters. Breach of GDPR?  It could be argued they knew you had Supremacy of Contact but it's a a long shot. Trespass to your vehicle?  I know someone on the Parking Prankster blog did that but it's one case out of thousands. Surely best to defy them and put the onus on them to sue you.  Make them carry the risk.  And if they finally do - smash them. If you want, I suppose you could have a laugh at the MA's expense.  Tell them about the criminality they have endorsed and give them 24 hours to have your tickets cancelled and have the signs removed - otherwise you will contact the council to start enforcement for breach of planning permission.

    • 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.

This has also happened to me today but i have already printed mine. What we need to do is find someone who has lloyds internet banking and has not started any dialgue with the bank regarding charges and SAR's etc.

 

as it says online it is an error and i would think it would be fixed as online statements are a big part of online banking.

 

Is this a general error or are those claiming back charges are being targeted.....???

 

choo choo........

 

dan..........

Preliminary request sent to lloyds 7.3.07

LBA sent to lloyds 21.3.07

N1 form filed at the court 4.4.07

only days after sending my first letter.received a reply how fast is this.

 

dear me.

 

thank you for getting in touch with us.i am sorry you are unhappy about your account charges, like any business,we do make a charge for some of our extra services.when customers don;t have enough in their accounts to cover a payment,this always means extra work-and it has to happen very quickly.we have to agree to make the payment by setting up or increasing an overdraft,or tell customers we can;t agree it,we feel its fair to charge for this service. of course its only fair too,that we:re completely open about any charged-for services before you might need them.thats why we take care to give every new customer the latest guide to our charges.you can also get up-to-date details about fees and borrowing rates at all our branches,throgh our helpline and on our website,

just as importantly,we do everything we can to help our customers avoid these charges you can get an up to date balance at any of our cash machines,over the phone on line and by weekly text to your moblie.

if you know a payment is going to take you over your agreed limit,you;re welcome to see if there;s anything we can do.

the office of fair trading has published new guidelines on credit card defaults charges.we:re still talking it through with them,but the important point is that the guidelines are about default;charges that people pay when they break agreement with us,this doest;t apply to your charges as these were for dealing with your request to go over your agreed overdraft limit;;they are not default charges because you haven;t broken your agreement.they are our prices for the service we provide in these situations.

i understand that you may also have some concerns about us sharing information about your relationship with us with credit reference agencies we use,i:d like to reassure you that this does not apply to bank charges;we only share what is know as white data.which is information about payments to your credit card.loan or mortgage accounts.i do hope you can see that we make our charging system as fair as possible-and why i can;t agree to cancel your charges.i hope this fully answers the points you raised with us. it goes on please let me know if there is anything else i can do to help. if we cannot come to an agreement . i will provide you with details of the financial ombudsman service so they can consider your complaint independently. etc do i send a letter back or now file a court claim

Bog standard reply from Lloyds! Issue your LBA once your first 14 days are up from your prelim , and then if no satisfactory (won't be) response after another 14 days issue a court claim. They have actually refunded £750 this Tuesday and today I have had another letter saying "please be patient " whilst they look into my case - the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing!

Interesting post Cleanslate.

 

Does this mean that the banks are beginning to cave in and realise that they are on a hiding to nothing or is he so peed off with them that he is trying to get one over on them?

Not sure if the mods will read yiur post but if they do I am sure that they will be as surpried as you were when you were told it.

 

The only thing that I would say is that if the banks can check the claims and trace them back to him as they are from his family then would they have grounds for sacking him?

 

Hard to tell but could be interesting
