    • Just to clear it up, sorry I don't make sense sometimes. I have paid £4000 £1200 of that was suppose to clear the £1200 debt.   Meaning I have sent a extra £2800 on top of my normal mainternance money.   Thank you

    • Hi, I shown my key worker a letter that was sent to me saying that I owe £1200, she setup a standing order around 2021, this was to pay back money I owed, with my mental health status I have had complex issues to deal with and I just simply forgot about this standing order so it has been running for about 3.5 years acording to my key worker, anyway I'm not worried about the money that was sent that I call a overpayment, it went towards supporting my child's household so I am just happy with that, I am a little sad that I am being told I still owe this £1200, I have sent bank statements over 3 years worth but they have not taken away this £1200 bill and still say I owe it   Thank you

    • 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.

Good for you Scoobz!!!

I wanted a list too for my case, but there was only the litigation list which isnt up to date. I didnt need it in the end as they settled the moment I stepped into the court waiting room! (even though they had applied for a stay the day before - see my thread for the letter I put in on the last minute, I feel that helped me)

My details are

Kay Whittaker v Alliance and Leicester Plc.

Case date 16.08.07 at 14.00hrs Claim No: 7QZ85243

Settled for £2,243. (out of the claim for £2432) I know I was exceedingly lucky! But shows there is still hope, so the very best of luck to you today. Try to get a good nights sleep!

Love KayX

 

P.S. I'm now applying for wasted costs of £250 so fingers crossed I'll squeeze as much money as I can from the buggers.

Hi Jansus

 

Thanks for the info, I've sent blue pricey a PM regarding her claim number etc.... I've got about 7 settled claims on my list now! I'm going to include it in my bundle.

 

Very interesting reading regarding the OFT POC's and also the following (if you haven't already read it)...

Just in middle of punching holes in my court bundle... (fingers hurting now!).. It's costing me a fortune in printer cartridges and paper.. hope its all worth it!!

 

Take care

Thanks C&D

 

It's certainly going to be interesting over the next couple of weeks to see what happens - A&L are still settling so that's good news for us! Good luck with the claim! If you need any help then give me a shout!

Thats definately good news that they are still settling, I am claiming £3200 for my mums friend and she really could do with it back..

 

I have printed the AQ ready for her to drop into court on Monday but as the claim is high, she has to pay - any idea how I get this added to the total claim?

 

Thanks

Hi C&D

 

I did an AQ and had to pay the £100. The court will give her a receipt for the money so just tell her to keep it and then when you get around to doing your court bundle, you include it in there so its added to the claim amount.

 

Good Luck
