    • Don't appeal. This is a well known scam site to us. It's even been exposed on national TV by Joe Lycett! The traditional route was that we'd push Starbucks to cancel the PCN but that hasn't been working as of late. You've got 2 options: 1. Pay the £60 and the matter goes away. 2. Ignore them and engage with us. We'd rather you choose option 2. We'll be with you every step of the way. The good news is that MET rarely goes to court with this, providing you engage with us properly. The times they have is when people have either come to us late or have ignored our advice. Many times, once defended properly with our advice, they claims are either discontinued by MET or struck out by the courts. Get reading up by using the search feature and searching "Southgate Park", go see how many cases we have here of this scam site, get used to the process. Get reading at least 20+ threads
    • As above so it is essential you don't appeal and accidentally reveal who was driving. Stay quiet to Met and their pet DCA unless you get a letter before claim.
    • Hello, welcome to CAG. Thank you for the information. To answer your question, we don't recommend appealing at all. It will be a waste of your time and you could end up outing the driver. Ask any questions that you have but basically you keep an eye on this, keep the correspondence and if MET ever they send a Letter Before Claim/Action. If you get to that stage, we'll suggest being proactive. Best, HB EDIT: Could we see the other side of the PCN please? Sometimes there is information that they've left off.
    • Hi All, Can ii get advice on this PCN received at the services near stansted airport.

    • 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.

FROM Court Hearings - Commercial and Admiralty Court

 

 

Got this from Legal B E A G L E S ( have to type it like that or you get begels or bagels ...when posting the message... strange) however, note that this hearing is between OFT and Abbey.... are they hearing each bank separately ???

 

 

I received this email today, from Jill Evans which is strange as I sent my email to Julie Morgan (my MP)... buts its a reply lol

 

Thank you for your letter regarding court cases against bank charges. I fully sympathise with your situation as there seems to have been a frustrating wait for a resolution to this matter. Unfortunately, it is not in my powers as a member of the European parliament to have any influence on court cases in the United Kingdom. You could perhaps contact your local member of parliament for more assistance.

I notice that a High Court test case has begun today which seeks to establish whether the level of unauthorised overdraft charges levied by banks are unfair. I will be following the case with interest, hoping that a fair conclusion is reached.

Yours sincerely,

Jill Evans MEP

Plaid Cymru

Oh well, never mind Val, you're maybe right there. We'll get there yet!

Every time I try to either copy & paste or even type the address, it still takes me to that disneyland thing.

The name and the link to the LB site has been doctored by CAG.

 

It’s disappointing that CAG seem quite content to allow this to cause frustration to their members including hard working campaigners and old age pensioners, seemingly for their own amusement

Rather strong accusations isnt it?

 

why would any one want to doctor a link to another website?

 

i note you offer nothing to support such allegations

There is an extremely valid reason why CAG do not want to have any public link with the afore-mentioned site.

 

I shall not go into details, but suffice to say there is absolutely no "amusement value" - that's as far from the truth as is possible to imagine.

If there's no amusement value, what is the justification for altering the link to 'disney' - and using the filter to change the name to 'bagles'. Surely if you don't want a link to a site you just delete it.

For Olden and for Ginan. There is a language filter that changes the LB site name to Disneyland.

Freakyleaky the word doctored is an unfortunate word used by Ginan. Personally a simple addition to the rules that no site links whatsoever are permitted would be preferable or no site links without the permission of site admin is permitted. Something like that.

Any further comments about LB site and CCS site which is also altered on this site is unhelpful.

The site owners have the right to do it and that is that.

OHOH, sometimes, better to leave things alone because to quote Lawrence Rabinowitz QC for RBS in the OFT test case, and widely reported in the media,"it could stir up a hornet's nest".

MP's responses thread is what this one is, not discussion of the language filter. Will leave this thread for a few days in case others are looking for an argument. Try MSE if you want a good old handbags at five paces.

Fair enough vortex, although I do know what I am talking about.

 

Please be assured that I was trying to curtail the discussion in the politest way, and I certainly had no intention of instigating, or getting involved in, an argument.

 

Don't worry, I won't bother in future.

if it is in Parliament, he cannot be sued for any comments made within it. So he could say that he was a lying cheat and not be sued in the courts for saying so because of Parliamentary privilege.

I got a reply from my MP John Pugh ... Talk about a rushed reply which is not very encouraging. I sure you need to know good ENGLAND :) to become a MP.

 

Anyway here's his reply to my letter tell me what you think:

 

Thanks for e-mail. You are clearly well on top of suibject

and sorely effected by it. Unfortunately bank are within their rights

now to appeal and since we cannot change the law retrospectively

decent behaviour on their part is a matter of their corporate choice,

You will appreciate that the banks are not sort of high quality legal

advice. They probably have worked out the interest they will get on

the reimbursable cash, set that against the legal costs and worked

that even if they lose its 'no brainer'. The only thing that can

change is if anyone of then as an individual bank get embarassing

publicity which erodes their market share. We could assure this by

trying to interest the media in cases like yours but a- people do not

like to discuss their financial affairs in public and b- media

interest is fickle.

I am keen to do all I can to put pressure on the banks the problem is

thinking of a way of doing it to effect. If I took up your individual

case- all I will get is a holding letter pending judicial decision.

I would quite like to chat about this with you. If you have time pop

into my office next wek during the recess 35 Shakespeare St.
