    • I (and other respondents) always advise “not getting caught in a lie” it hardens their response. Why would they now believe protestations of remorse and “I won’t do it again” if they've already seen you'd lie and say it was a one-off when it wasn't..  You can try approaching the prosecutor on the day, but "I wouldn't hold my breath" …..  
    • I told them that it was an accident and that I used the oyster card as my debit card was lost. However, they did an investigation and realised it was not a one off. I have told them how remorseful I feel and how a criminal conviction would result in expulsion from my degree but they still want to take me to court. I have received the court summons letter

    • 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.

we applied to dogs trust and blue cross to have a dog but were refused - but we got our lurcher/lab cross from a couple who were emigrating.they had him from rspca as he had been badly treated as a puppy and in a sanctuary for over a year. he is the most well behaved and loving dog - but a real scardey cat - especially of small dogs and our three legged cat.:eek:

 

he has never misbehaved and just loves cuddles - like a big baby - and considering i had a fear of dogs (after ending up in hospital after being attacked by an alsation) i never thought I would be happily brushing a dogs teeth.

Aw Kat I am sorry. I didnt know what you meant by "a Poorly Bun". I had a little lopp-eared rabbit once, called Marlow. He had the run of the house, which was nice except he kept eating telephone wires but very clean as he also ate his own poos! He died of the flu.

Its horrible to see a pet die, no matter what it is.:(

Love Kayx

Kat,

 

Just passed by and saw your message re bun, was it age or what?

 

Had a Flemish Giant crossed with something else once, used to take it for a walk on a lead, although it's been a long time I still think of him and the things he got up to, always remember how he would lope into the living room and then put his chin on the arm of the armchair and look at you with those big eyes of his, either he wanted to go for a walk or he just wanted to curl up in your lap. Animals are just like children, now you are starting to get me all maudling, so I'm off to make a cup of tea.

Laydee was a good old age but don't think she ever recovered from the fly strike incident - seemed to rally but then just keeled over after a couple of weeks. When I saw her thismorning it was as if she was still with us - had one ear cocked and other down in her cute pose. Just hope she didn't suffer. Just waiting for the day no 1 cockerel Gareth goes now - him very old too, lives in the house mostly and passed on his 'girls' to younger Arnie, mind you can still keep the youngster in place. Characters or what.

Give me animals any day, they give a lot and ask for very little in return, humans could do with taking a leaf out of their books.

 

How do your cockerels get on with the neighbours? Friend of mine had one but the council with the connivance of neighbours within a 10 mile radius, ordered him to get rid of the cockerel or else. He chose or else and the council with the help of the RSPCA came and took it away. No, he did not live in suburbia but on the outskirts.
