    • What you have uploaded is a letter with daft empty threats from third-party paper tigers.  Just ignore it. What we need to see is the original invoice you received last October or November.
    • Thanks for posting the CPR contents. i do wish you hadn't blanked out the dates and times since at times they can be relevant . Can you please repost including times and dates. They say that they sent a copy of  the original  PCN that they sent to the Hirer  along with your hire agreement documents. Did you receive them and if so can you please upload the original PCN without erasing dates and times. If they did include  all the paperwork they said, then that PCN is pretty near compliant except for their error with the discount time. In the Act it isn't actually specified but to offer a discount for 14 days from the OFFENCE is a joke. the offence occurred probably a couple of months prior to you receiving your Notice to Hirer.  Also the words in parentheses n the Act have been missed off. Section 14 [5][c] (c)warn the hirer that if, after the period of 21 days beginning with the day after that on which the notice to hirer is given, the amount of unpaid parking charges referred to in the notice to keeper under paragraph 8(2)(f) or 9(2)(f) (as the case may be) has not been paid in full, the creditor will (if any applicable requirements are met) have the right to recover from the hirer so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Though it states "if any applicable ...." as opposed to "if all applicable......" in Section 8 or 9. Maybe the Site could explain what the difference between the two terms mean if there is a difference. Also on your claim form they keeper referring to you as the driver or the keeper.  You are the Hirer and only the Hirer is responsible for the charge EVEN IF THEY WEREN'T THE DRIVER. So they cannot pursue the driver and nowhere in the Hirer section of the Act is the hirer ever named as the keeper so NPC are pursuing the wrong person.  
    • This is simply a scam site.  It's been shown to be a scam in the national press and on national TV. Please fill in the the forum sticky and upload the invoice you've received. In fact what you have is an invoice, not a fine, a private company doesn't have the power to issue fines.

    • 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.

Not having read these forums correctly (doh!) I stupidly did not send my £10 when I made my request for a list of bank charges under the data protection act. The bank have replied to my letter to say they are looking into the matter. Where do I stand though? Do I need to send a similar letter agin do you think with my £10. I ask because I read on these pages about someone getting the info from their without having to resort to threats under the data protection act.. Any suggestions?

you could write to them stating you applied for a list of charges to them and you forgot to put in the ten pound fee, and add the fee but they have 40 days from then to comply .........or you could just hang on and hope you strike lucky ....but then they could say they didnt recieve the fee and refuse your request .....the choice is yours

A lot of the banks are returning fees and saying they'll give the info free of charge, but a lot have also shown how arsey they can be. I wouldn't want to hope they decided to overlook the lack of payment :)

 

If I were you, I'd follow Mech's first suggestion and write to them again, sending the payment.

One thing to consider is that the banks could return all the statments free of charge but not include details of the manual interventions. If you send the £10 then the DPA request is complete and they must supply all details requested.

BEFORE starting your claim read through the FAQ's and if there's something you aren't sure of then ask.

Ok , the latest is that I had a reply from Alliance and Leicester today, saying they will provide me with the info and charge me £10 from my account to cover it. (This could be interesting as at presnt I don't have £10 in it! Surely not .... Surely they won't.....- well we will see eh?!!!!)

 

Basically it's a go away and die letter. Can I quote a few bits of it and ask for peoples comments? Cheers....

 

 

…The Office of Fair Trading has commented that they consider the level of late payment charges to be unfair: However they were actually referring to late payment fees for credit card payments which are quite distinct from a banks charges on current accounts.:mad:

…please be assured our charges are reasonable and are competitive with the charges made by other financial organisations.:mad:

…the OFT have not entered into any discussions with the banking industry regarding currant accounts.:mad:

Any comments please. Many thanks in advance for all your help. I look forward to hearing from you all on this. :grin:

Don't worry, it doesn't matter what the OFT were referring to TBH. At the end of the day, the charges are penalties and under contract law, you can't penalise someone for a breach of contract.

 

Continue with it. They're only trying to put you off.
