    • Morning guys As Bank suggested, I've now re-worked my POC to include details of my parcel's original loss,  miraculous rediscovery a month later and subsequent delivery, albeit having been opened and the contents removed. Grateful for your thoughts please, as (P2G having gone very quiet) I intend to initiate court proceedings against P2G tomorrow - 1 May. Claim Claim number: xxxxx Reference: P2G MAY 2024   Claimant xxxxx   Defendant Parcel2Go 1A Parklands Lostock Bolton BL6 4SD  Particulars of Claim The defendant failed to arrange for the safe delivery of the claimant's parcel containing 8 second-hand golf clubs (valued at £265) that was sent to a UK address using their delivery service (P2G Reference xxxxx). The defendant contracted Evri to deliver the parcel (Evri Reference xxxxx) and whilst Evri collected the parcel for delivery on 18 March 24 they then ‘misplaced’ it a day later, formally declaring it lost on 27 March. On 16 April they found it and delivered it on 17 April but, at some point before delivery, it had been opened and the contents removed . The defendant refuses to reimburse the claimant on the grounds that the claimant did not purchase their secondary insurance contract. The defendant seeks to exclude their liability in breach of section 57 Consumer Rights Act. The secondary insurance contract is also in breach of section 72. The claimant seeks reimbursement of £265, plus P2G fees of £9.10, plus postage costs for two first class letters to P2G of £2.70, plus court fees, plus interest. The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from xxxxx to xxxxxx on £276.80 and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £xxxx   Details of claim Amount claimed £276.80  
    • Odd one this, I recieved 2 notice's for the 18th and 19th April stating that I overstayed on Wigan Robin Retail Park. Permitted Minutes 180. They state I was there 355 minutes on the 18th and 388 minutes on the 19th. Both times I was there around 10 minutes getting my wife a brew from costa after dropping the kids off at school.  On both days I had passed through there a second time around 3pm, again to get a brew then left. Both notices have 2 images each, Entrance and exit.  This is the interesting bit. The Entrance images both timestamped actually clearly show I am exiting the retail park not entering it. And the exiting images they provided show me leaving the carpark after visiting a second time later in the day. In the attachments You'll see all 4 images show that I am exiting, none of them are of me entering. I understand most if not all that see this post won't know the area but if the look at the map link i gave you'll see the road I was on leading up to the main road. g24 ltd 1.pdfg24 ltd 1.pdf GoogleMap view of the road I am on in the entrance images I would have had dashcam footage but I since formatted the memory card. I tried recovery tools but I couldn't get the files back.  
    • An update: I just got another PCN. I get the feeling that someone in the residence is calling OPS, as it's dated for a few mins after I parked. I won't appeal of course. Interestingly, our cleaner was also parked but didn't get a PCN. I asked them why and apparently they're whitelisted. I did ask the MA if they could whitelist me and they said they couldn't. Clearly they decided not to tell the truth. Surely, this would resolve all of the issues entirely i.e. we'd keep non-residents from parking, whilst allowing for residents to park without issue? Also, could OPS now take me to court for both PCNs separately, or could it be one case?    
    • I was with sse broadband until Jun 2023 at which point without notifying me they passed me to origin broadband who I was unaware is my supplier now -  My broadband at home kept working and I was under the impression that sse are taking direct debit payments from my bank account and everything is fine because the Internet has continued to work.  To my horror I have just noticed that origin broadband has been sending me PDF bills for £39 a month and the email heading has been showing as just no reply so I thought it was junk and never bother to check it.  I have now noticed a bill every month and now I owe them some £350. I did instruct origin to supply me Internet and therfore don't feel responsible for this debt.  What are my rights and is it a legal debt considered I did not sign any agreements with them - their first contact with me tho was very clever back in July 2023 trying to lure me into an agreement however because I just saw that email now I'm not sure what to do because I owe them 400 pounds nearly supposedly at 39 per month.  Our agreement with sse was for 26 per month but they shut shop and passed us to origin without asking our consent.    The following is what origin email said back in July before they stated sending invoice every month for payment.    We hope you're enjoying your reliable phone and broadband with us. We're just letting you know your phone and broadband package will end on 30 Jun 2023. Thankfully, good things don't need to come to an end - read on to decide what you want to do next.   Below you'll find the details of your current package and some other great options to compare it to.   What can I do - shall I just pay the debt and cancel it and move elsewhere or is there any way I can fight this as they are more or less enforced upon us with out permission by sse who most Likly sold our accounts to them.    Any help greatly appreciated

    • 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.

What most of us is forgetting is that the action was started without any consulatation with any consumer group. As we were never consulted why should we be the ones to suffer a long delay and believe me the banks are going to try and delay it as much as possible. Basically what they are doing is challenging a statute!

I am thinking about resending to the National Assembly of Wales member, since I have had no response other than acknowledgement, is it worth sending another letter to Rhodri Morgan?

 

I have replied to Jessica Morden MP and also to Dr Thomas Huertas, FSA.

I don't see why not, he's bound to reply eventually, even if it's just to say that he's "not interested".

Don't forget to let us know how you get on with your MP, & Dr Thomas Huertas.

In the letter (post 57 from Jonathan Evans MEP (Wales)

I am sure that proceeding on the basis of one test case in relation to these charges is ultimately to the benefit of bank customers, who until now have engaged in an expensive lottery in challenging these charges in the Courts. I share your concern, however, about the decision to allow banks to continue to impose charges until the case is concluded. I believe that there should have been a suspension of further charges pending the Court outcome, which would have the advantage of concentrating the parties' minds on ensuring that there is no avoidable delay in hearing and concluding the case.

would it be worth replying to Jonathan and pushing this point with him and back it up with the human rights argument... as I didnt mention that in my letter to him... ?

ps. perhaps we all have the same MP

Hi jenny, I forgot to mention the human rights bit in my reply letters, the FSA thinks that the waiver does not interfere with our human rights!!(post 65) My MP Jessica Morden Newport East.

 

yes I think it would be worth pushing human rights, because it does effect us.

The trend at the start was that MEP's were telling us they didn't want to know, & that we should contact our MP instead, but today that trend has been broken by an MEP who seems interested!!

Hi I am not trying to find the petition, I have already signed, its the email sent to me to click on the link to confirm that doesn't work , the prime minister petition charter by Martin Lewis. The AOL thing is someone told me that sometimes if you are with AOL it doesn't open some links, try Ctrl,Alt,and Del. no joy anyway.

MONEY SAVING ADVICE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC20:1:05

 

Mr Gregory Campbell Mr Nigel Dodds Mr Jeffrey M. Donaldson Bob Spink Mr Mike Hancock Mr Roy Beggs* 6

That this House commends the activities of those persons and groups dedicated to assisting members of the public get value for money in purchases, insurance, overdrafts and mortgages; and recognises that money saving experts like Martin Lewis at Money Saving Expert: Consumer Revenge - Credit Cards, Shopping, Bank Charges, Cheap Flights and more provides, on a not-for-profit basis, an incentive for ordinary consumers to pressurise large providers and financial institutions to hold down prices to the general public.

Hi everyone.

 

I'd more or less given up on Diana Johnson after getting an email detailing her increased workload since the Hull floods(!) but this morning a posh looking House of Commons envelope landed on my doormat.

 

Here's her response:

 

Dear xxxxx xxxxx

 

Thank you for your email regarding overcharging complaints. I have written to the FSA on your behalf. I have made it clear to their Chief Executive my concerns about the issues you raised.

 

I will let you know the response of the (sic) when I receive it. In the meantime if I can be of any further assistance on this, or any other matter, please do not hesitate to contact me again.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Diana Johnson

Labour MP for Hull North

 

What's the betting she gets the same response as the others? I'm thinking perhaps I should drop her a quick email to forewarn her that she may get fobbed off!

Hi crfx250, I dont mind asking my MP for his letter, but how would i word it so as not to insult him??? Any ideas???

 

Bonnie

 

 

ok Bonnie this is what I'd write:

 

Dear MP

 

I am extremely grateful to you for taking the time and trouble to contact the FSA about my concerns.

 

I am, however, very disappointed in their response to you. Thier letter was no more informative than the standard templated response I received when I first contacted the FSA.

 

Moreover, a colleague who's MP wrote to the FSA expressing rather different concerns than mine, received, word for word, an identical letter to yours. And I feel that the FSA should be giving more consideration to the concerns of constituents to their Members of Parliament than merely a bland generic response.

 

I now wish to make a formal complaint to the FSA on this matter and I would be grateful if you would forward me the letter you originally wrote to the FSA, either by post or e-mail.

 

Again, thank you so much for your kind cooperation.
