    • it's 85k of turnover (well, now £90k). However, you're digging yourself into another hole here. That ship has probably long since sailed. Is it worth pursuing this? You're not going to get anything back from it either way.
    • Hi,   A few pointers from yesterday to take note of evris cpr 27.9 failed again so we should really make issue of this also their WX fail to comply with CPR so again we should take issue with their statement of truth  you cant get tort if you get damages under subsection 7 of CRA because its double recovery  - not sure what we think of this? however its the first time i saw the judges make reference to your non automatic rights from s49 which s54 and 57 assist with. We should start stating this specifically for claims as I think its much better than just 49 and 57 as we need to make it clear where our non automatic rights come from as 54 automatic frankly dont help  I have sent the claim form and defences to the admin email because I can’t upload them for some reason as it wont let me but thought this may help as its the first time we’ve taken tort to trial. although i think the DDJ was honestly struggling to understand some parts of the law because he was asking me about them and how he should interpret them, especially for the automatic. Will apply for transcript if you want it?
    • I decided on confrontation - which I hate.  Omg the arrogance of the driver.  They refused to say who had given them the alleged permission to park on the private land - unless I proved ownership.  I couldn't believe they could be so objectionable.   They advised they couldn't take public transport to work as they lived too far away.  They couldn't rent a local garage as none were available. I simply said that's their issue not mine. It was infuriating that this person had such misplaced entitlement.  However I decided to humour them and show them the title deeds.   They couldn't respond.  Although at this point they alleged some guy in a city up north - whose name they couldn't remember - gave permission!!    They then asked if they could buy the garages and land!! Yet can't afford to park on a meter !! They seemed to back down and agree to now park elsewhere.  I hope so. 
    • I've worked out the contractor invoiced apx 250k - Without adding vat to the invoices.  So based on above he should have added vat to all invoices once he reached 85k?  Obviously he had to pay his labourers - would those payments get taken off what he received?  Or it doesn't matter cos he invoiced for the high sum?

    • 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 miser

 

I havent seen any that have been successfully overturned other than Tempty vs NatWest on legal bea gles.info which appears to have been following a call to her local court this morning. The application was personal to the claimant and quoted the SSA and Tax Credits Acts, and outlined personal circumstances.

 

Its quite interesting might be worth a look at.

 

Hope that helps.

Jules

Was this a stay applied for by the banks that was refused or an existing stay that was overturned by way of an appeal? So far Tempty v NatWest on legal bea gles . info is the only one I have actually seen overturned , there have been a few Courts I know of that have refused stay applications but this change of Order by the Court is the 1st one of its kind as far as I am aware.

 

A big help for anyone in the same situation as far as I am concerned.

ok so my case has now been moved to nottingham county court for that court to deal with my application to remove the stay. ive also just received a letter saying it is ordered that allocation questionairs be dispensed unless the district judge at hte courte of transfer orders otherwise

 

note i havent had to pay anything to aply to lift my stay.

 

i simply sent a letter (Found on this site)

the letter i recieved back from court said it is ordered that:-

 

1) the claimants letter stands as an application for leave to lift the stay.

 

2) no fee payable

 

3) transfer to claimants home county court.

 

i take it this is good!!?? i was about to give up lol

It's a positive step Wadsi - make sure you're prepared for the hearing as much as possible. This thread http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/cases-stayed-pending-oft/111708-i-have-hearing-date.html has some good tips on how to prepare your supporting evidence for the hearing.

 

Best of luck hun :)

hedgey

 

Please can you make the details available when you can for this one. My understanding is that all Welsh courts are operating a blanket stay regardless, so this is very encouraging.

 

Also good for me because I actually live in the Welshpool catchment area, though normally file in South Wales where I work. If there is some hope at Welshpool then I can file future claims there instead :D

Hi Varangian,

 

From what the claimant has said, claims are being stayed at Welshpool unfortunately. However, as the claim was due to be heard shortly after Cobbetts request for a stay, the DJ decided to let the hearing go ahead anyway to discuss whether the claim should be stayed.

 

Claimant really had to put up a fight to keep the claim being heard as the DJ said all claims should be being stayed. However, after hearing the arguements, he denied their application for the stay (Cobbetts didn't even bother turning up!!) and let the hearing go ahead.

 

As soon as the claimant's back online and updated their thread, I'll PM you with the thread link as it will make really interesting reading. :)
