    • next time dont upload 19 single page pdfs use the sites listed on upload to merge them into one multipage pdf.. we aint got all day to download load single page files 2024-01-15 DBCLegal SAR.pdf
    • If you have not kept the original PCN you can always send an SAR to Excel and they have to send you all the info they have on you within a month. failure to do so can lead to you being able to sue them for their failure.......................................nice irony.
    • Thank you and well done  for posting up all those notices it must have have taken you ages.. The entrance sign is very helpful since the headline states                    FREE PARKING FOR CUSTOMERS ONLY in capitals with not time limit mentioned. Underneath and not in capitals they then give the actual times of parking which would not be possible to read when driving into the car park unless you actually stopped and read them. Very unlikely especially arriving at 5.30 pm with possibly other cars behind. On top of that the Notice goes on to say that the terms and conditions are inside the car park so the entrance sign cannot offer a contract it is merely an offer to treat. Inside the car park the signs are mostly too high up and the font size too small to be able to read much of their signs. DCBL have not shown a single sign that can be read on their SAR. Although as they show photographs which were taken the year after your alleged breach we do not know what the signs were when you were there. For instance the new signs showed the charge was then £100 whereas your PCN was for £85. Who knows, when you were there perhaps the time was for 3 hours. They were asked to produce  planning permission which would have been necessary for the ANPR cameras alone and didn't do so. Nor did they provide a copy of the contract-DCBL  "deeming them disproportionate or not relevant to the substantive issues in the dispute" How arrogant and untruthful is that? The contract and planning permission could be vital to having the claim thrown out. I can find no trace of planning permission for the signs nor the cameras on Tonbridge Council planning portal. and the contract of course is highly relevant since some contracts advise the parking rouges that they cannot take motorists to Court. I understand that Europarks are now running that car park which means that nexus didn't  last long before being thrown out.....................................
    • Hi,   I am not sure if I posted this already here but I don't think I did. I attach a judgement that raises very interesting points IMO. Essentially EVRi did their usual non attendance that we normally see, however the judge (for the first time I've seen in these threads) dismissed the notice and awarded me judgement by default because their notice misses the "confirmation of compliance" paragraph. in and out in 3 minutes (aside from the chat at the end with the judge about his problems with evri) Redacted - evri CPR loss.pdf
    • Just to update this. I did apply to strikeout and they did not attend the hearing. I won by defualt and the hearing lasted 5 minutes (court only allocated 15). The judge simply explained that the only matter he was really considering is if the Defendant could have any oral evidence to defend the claim. However he said he had decided that based on their defence, and their misunderstanding of law, and their non attendence he did not think they had any reasonsable chance so he awarded me SJ + Costs on the claim form + the strikeout fee. Luckily when I sent the defendant the order I woke up the next day to a wire trasnfer for the full sum of the judgement

    • 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.

going through my credit card agreement with a fine tooth comb, i have noticed that it has an APR of 17.9% variable. how much can it vary? my statements are charged at 20.9%. (i think- there are only 3 statements that tell me the APR rate) is that a reasonable fluctuation? also the credit agreement is actually the application form i signed before receiving the card. i know there have been a lot of discussions about the difference between an application form and a credit agreement, but it seems to have all of the prescribed terms, so i am a bit unsure of what to think. my oh is going to scan it for me when he gets a minute, so any advice would be good. i'm not very good with computers (it took me nearly a year to get the courage to start my own thread!!!) so sorry for the delay! if i can get any advice on the APR in the meantime, though, i'd be very grateful

Hi Lolly, If the application form has all the terms and conditions that govern the credit agreement printed on it then your probably on thin ice.

 

The one I got sent back was just my signature and a bland statement saying if a card was granted it would be governed by the terms and conditions of the lender and mentioned two clauses in particular by number. They also sent a set of the up to date terms and conditions which were totally different and didn't have clauses with the numbers on the application form :rolleyes: so check what you have been sent carefully.

 

Apr's do fluctuate but take the higher one when you are calculating the interest due back on your charges :D.

today i received another letter from hsbc saying

 

I write in reference to a recent letter from the Financial Ombudsman Service.

I can see that you have requested copies of credit agreements from the bank and have said that you are unhappy at the time we have taken to respond.

Please find copies of signed agreement forms for your personal loan, credit card and flexi-loan. Regarding the overdraft facility that existed on your account, it was agreed over the telephone and no signed agreement was required.

I would also like to apologise if this information has not been provided as quickly as it should have been. I would be grateful if you would contact the Financial Ombudsman Service and let them know that the bank has now sent you the necessary paperwork.

 

This was only a small part of the reason why i contacted the financial ombudsman. i have an ongoing complaint, and they wont address it, so i will now need to send hsbc another letter telling them to read through my previous correspandance and get it sorted. Ever noticed how, hsbc deal with the problems they can, and ignore the rest?!! again, as soon as we can work out how to upload copies of the agreements i will post them for some advice.

overdraft facility? what overdraft facility? is this the one where i have stopped using my account because as soon as i zero the balance they remove another charge so i transerred verything to another account and i am now overdrawn by £200 purely from charges!!! i dont rememer discussing it over the phone, or them agreeing to give me an overdraft

Write back and tell them you cant contact the Financial Ombudsman Service and let them know that the bank has now sent you the necessary paperwork because they haven't :).

 

HSBC run this silly formal/informal overdraft system if you ask for an overdraft its formal if you don't and your account goes overdrawn then its informal. It's meaningless twaddle :-)

well, we've spent ages trying to attach the scanned credit agreements, but no success, tried this photobucket thing, but cant make head nor tail of it. dont know what we're doing wrong, but hey, thats why neither of us work with computers!!

anybody with any suggestions how to post these credit agreements? i need to sort it now, because i am desperate to get hsbc to accept my reduced payments.

 

at the moment they keep trying to take them out each month and then banging a charge on, which doesnt matter too much in itself as i dont use the account any more and will eventually get around to reclaim the charges- which will basically put the account back to zero. both mine and my ohs accounts are now overdrawn by the exact amount in charges we havent got around to claiming, yet!

 

when i pointed this out to somebody at hsbc, i was informed, you have now made three claims against us, if you try it again there will be severe repercussions for you! with hindsight, i perhaps should have left longer between claims and done them all in one, but i was so desperate for cash that i did two claims for £100ish as soon as they had been taken.

 

the trouble i am having is, that i am approaching a default and would really like to avoid that if at all possible, but until they accept my offer, i am stuck, so i could really do with some advice regarding the agreements. they look fine to me, but if somebody could find ANYTHING at all that i could use as a bargaining tool, it could mean the difference between me regaining control of my finances, or slipping deeper.

 

as i may have mentioned before, we are only in this mess because my oh was ill for a very long time, but he is better now, and we can start to repair our finances if we could just get the chance to actually stop the cycle.

 

sorry about the long winded rant, i just wanted to clearly explain the situation. i am not trying to avoid payment, i just want to slow things down for a short while to get us back on our feet, and hsbc clearly dont feel the same way.

Have you got a photo bucket account. If you haven't sign up (It's free). Once you have signed up, you will need to be in the "my album" section. On the right hand side, you will see an upload box. As you have said you have scanned the agreements on to your machine you will need to make sure you are in the "images from my pc" part. then click on browse and find your scanned images. If there is more than one image you will need to use the other "browse" buttons. then all you have to do is pres "Upload". Once your images are on the site you will then be able to copy them on to a post here. To do this, find the image, right click your mouse, select copy, go to your post on CAG, press right click again and then paste.

 

If you have any problems, just shout

On the photo bucket site with every photo you choose, there is a choice to copy as an IMG (for forums). Left click on the one beside your image and you should get a little pop-up which says 'copied'...

 

Then just go to the forum and paste it in......... :)

Hi Lolly. I am hoping it is just a blip. Everyone has their off days and yesterday seems to have been a bit of a bad one for quiet a few.

I am sure things will retun to normal service before long. This really is one of the friendliest forums I have ever seen and has a strong sense of community. I think it is that sense of community that will see it through this rocky patch.

We will all laugh about it soon.:D

thats exactly how i feel. CAG has become a life line to me, its not just the problem solving, its knowing that we are all in this together. you join CAG dreading the postman coming, and end up feeling strong and fully prepared for what may be thrown at you next. i have learned so much, and i am so grateful for all the support and advice i have received, and if i can pass even a small portion of that on to somebody else, i will be a very happy lady.

Hi lolly. Buller has just forwarded your emal to me but the file type is not recognised for some reason. Can you try saving the scans to another file type or word document? If you can see them on screen can you copy and paste them and put them directly on to a post on here?
