    • Your page numbers should run through your WX and exhibits so im concerned its page x of 9.
    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.

    • Yep, those 'requirements' not met to shareholders satisfaction seem to me to be: 1. Not being allowed to increase customer bills by 40% (of which well over 50% of the new total would NOT be investment) 2. 1 plus regulators not agreeing to letting them do 'things in their own time (ie carry on regardless)

    • 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.

Your credit card debt is a civil matter not criminal, unless you took out the debt knowing you were emigrating and never had any intention of paying it back. That in itself will depend upon whether you lied or not at the time of the application.

 

As a civil matter you will not be arrested on your return to the UK.

 

You may find that the creditor may issue a county court summons to your last address and you may end up with another CCJ which could be enforced against any assets you have that remain in the UK.

 

Do not ever assume that just because you have emigrated and have no intention of returning to the UK at the present time, that you will not want to come back and live here again in the future. I emigrated, left debts behind although I was trying to pay them and I came back and was found within a matter of weeks by a debt tracing company.

 

On your eventual return CCJ's can be enforced cos they are not statute barred after 6 years.

 

Is there any reason why you cannot pay them anything from the US? You may be building your credit over there, but it would be unwise to think you can just start again in another country and then end up in just as much debt in one country as you were in the other.

Ironically, as many of the major DCA's and Purchasers are US owned or backed, and as it's virtually impossible to survive in US without a Bank account or having a credit check of some kind, it's almost inevitable that at some point you will show up on the radar and someone somewhere will begin the recovery process. Most of our major banks and financial institions have business in the US.

 

Owing money is not an offence, but it can be a serious obstacle sometimes, and make life a bit difficult.

HOIST BY THEIR OWN PETARD.

 

Blimey it works....:-)

If they haven't taken enforcement action within six years of judgment, they have to reapply to the court to revive the order. I think that a CCJ will drop off your credit record after six years whether or not it's satisfied - unless or until they get permission from the court to begin chasing again.

 

Somebody correct me if that's wrong :confused:

Is there anytine limit on a CCJ?

 

I'm not sure, but decree's (the Scottish equivalent) have a time limit of 20 years. I imagine CCJ's would be similar.

HAVE YOU BEEN TREATED UNFAIRLY BY CREDITORS OR DCA's?

 

BEWARE OF CLAIMS MANAGEMENT COMPANIES OFFERING TO WRITE OFF YOUR DEBTS.

Working on that theory it would be 24 years. Sounds perfectly plausible to me. ;)

hi they won't be able to pur sue you in USA even though when you will be back in Uk you willnot be arrested, you don't go to prison for debt. you may end up with a CCJ or bailiff may seize what is left behind you in uk but that will be it.

 

if you live in the Uk they have no right to pursue the debt there as diiferent law = different country. they might jdo a credit check in UK but i hardly dobt that as it is a bit expensive, when you will try to open a new bank account.

 

if you have already a CCJ and for debt pay what you can affrod aas the creditor and the Dca can enforce nor pursue a debt when you move abroad.

 

i hope this help

Dear Bsimmer,

 

I think you (and others) may find the following thread comforting. It is largely written by a Australian bank worker who deals with debt collection.

 

His comments on the overseas debt collection are very candid.

Best wishes,
