    • Hi, I'd change justice centre to county court. I also wouldn't be including a telegraph article in the bundle. It doens't prove anything law and you don't have distribution rights on it. I also wouldn't personally break down the exhibits on the index page, normally people have a seperate page for this right before the exhibits. The main index page normally just says Exhibits to WX of [Your Name] or at least that's the format I use/see people here use, although really it makes minimal difference.   I also see that despite referencing several judgements you haven't included the EVRi one   paragraph 46 really needs to go imo it has nothing to do with anything. Your in court to apply the law to your case, not to tell the judge about a newspaper that means nothing to your claim.   I also see you've adopted the issues in dispute/not in dispute, which is also known as a scott schedule. if you are taking this approach, for things not in dispute I would say this needs to be things that are agreed between parties, not things like "There is no dispute that I am happy to supply all this evidence which is included in the court bundle." I would say that issues in dispute is to focus on the aspects of the claim that are in dispute, such as whether liability is limited by insurance or not, so I'd be changing that accordingly.   BF should be along shortly to advise on things.
    • J, I just numbered them like that; once the witness statement is made, I'll add it to the pages.   The court date has been set as 02 July 2024. Please find attached V6. I will send an unredacted to the email.  claim budle_V6.pdf
    • I'm afraid that I have tried downloading it three times and each time I am getting an error message. Would you mind scanning it again please and uploading it again. I understand that JK has managed to open it but others may not. Thanks
    • I can see that.   In this case, I'd email both that receipt and your tracking label to evri's small claims email and say that is the information you have.   They'll figure it out from there I'm sure

    • 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.

hi all this is my first post i have been reading about other problems on here but am still unsure what to do here is a outline of what my situation is.

 

October was going through a very bad patch with my wife and kids and we sold up and moved to spain to try and start again leaving unpaid accounts with the window company (£7000) and the credit card company( £4000). Things didnt go as hoped and we came back to the uk in jan 2005 with nothing. It has taken until now to get our selfs sorted out with jobs etc... in june i did a credit check and there are defaults for the above there are no ccj`s. I contacted payplan but they dont deal with the above and did say that if theres no contact with theses companys after 6 years they can`t claim the money.

 

This month i have started to get phone calls from link finance asking if i live here etc.. at the moment i havnt talked to them myself but i dont know what to do now i would like to get this sorted as there is interest on the account (£13000) payplan did say about me going bankrupt but if i do that i will lose my job.

 

Please advise me on where to turn as i have never been in a situation like this ( i know its my own fault ) and theres a lot of preasure on me and my wife at the moment.

both accounts not old enough for statute barred, if they keep phoning tell them to STOP and put everything in writing,

 

the next step would probably be CCA requests (template library) i think a DPA request is in order aswell

cca is £1

dpa is £10. in both instances you can find out if the debt is legally enforcable in a court of law (cca)

dpa is to get ALL documents/statements ect... you can see if charges were added (of which you can get back)

 

IF debt been passed to a debt collection agancy you CCA them not the OC

you DPA the OC not the DCA

update: i sent for my CCA and my DPA on the 16th of october and today i got this letter back from them.

 

Dear Sir,

 

re: Asset Link Capital (No1) Limited -&- Yourself & 1 other

Agreement No: *************

 

We write further to your correspondence of 16th October 2007.

 

Whilst we note your s7(1) Data Protection Act 1998 request, we would refer you to s7(3) of the same act.

 

Should you wish to discuss the matter further, or to satisfy the requirement placed upon us to ensure you are indeed our customer, please contact the undersigned on 02920853507.

 

When we have ascertained that you are indeed our customer we shall of course comply with both your s7(1) Data Protection Act 1998 and s77-79 Consumer Credit Act 1974 requests by return.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Mr.S.Southwood-Evans

Litigation Specialist

Asset Link Capital (No1) Limited.

 

 

I have never spoke to these people but when they have asked if i live here they have been told this is my care of address.

 

Do i need to phone this number and confirm who i am ?

 

I would of thought that the 2 signed and addressed letters (CCA & DPA) that i sent them would be enough, if they have my signed CCA they would be able to compare signature.

 

I don`t want to talk to these`s people after everything that i have read and heard about them they have phoned several times since i posted the letters but i have been at work.

[(3) Where a data controller--

(a) reasonably requires further information in order to satisfy himself as to the identity of the person making a

request under this section and to locate the information which that person seeks, and

(b) has informed him of that requirement,

the data controller is not obliged to comply with the request unless he is supplied with that further information.]

 

yup theyre right they do have to make sure they are talking to the right person.

 

however the Act doesnot require that you send them a signature and i suggest that you do not send them anything with a signature on it

 

A simple call may resolve the problem this up to you, all they have to do is establish that you are who you say you are. you do not need to discuss the debt in any way

Morning Sequenci

 

It never ceases to amaze me how creditors try to use the DPA to get out of having to supply documents under a CCA request. Barclay card seem the worst offenders. i have seen a few people on here asked to provide their signatures on a piece of paper before hey will comply with the request.

 

they must think we are all green.

 

oh whats happened to "shaun the sheep" hes been replaced:D

Hi Evil Noodle,

 

the time frames are

 

!2 working days from receipt of request to supply the information under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 once they exceed this time frame they are in default and not entitled to enforce the debt until they comply and rectifiy the default

 

now, the Data Protection Act request they have 40 days to comply, calendar not working. however they are entitled to ask for you to confirm identity so this could make things take longer if you dont supply them this info, however DO NOT give them any thing with your signature on it

 

regards

paul

Paul,

 

Does this still apply because in post 12 evil noodle was asked to confirm who he was which he did on the 30th. I assummed that if they had a issue with his idenity then the dates would apply from whn his idenity was confirmed. That is what i was told by my local TS but what they have been telling me is a pack of lies.

oh , to shut them up with regards proof of id for a CCA request heres a letter i keep up my sleeve for these situations

 

Dear Sirs,

 

RE Account NO XXXXXXXX

 

Thank you for your letter dated xx/xx/2007 the contents of which are noted

 

In your letter you make reference to requiring my signed authorisation before you comply. I draw your attention to the fact that the Consumer Credit Act 1974 does not require that i supply you a copy of my signature before you comply with my S78 request.

 

If it is for Data Protection purposes then i can happily supply you with documentation to substansiate my identity to you.

 

However please note that to date you have happily sent statements and correspondace containing extensive sensitive private information to my address. I have to ask if you are concerned that you are corresponding with the correct person why has it taken so long to raise this?

 

As you are aware, disclosing data without adequate checks of identity is contrary to the 7th principal of data protection, listed in schedule 1 of the Data protection Act 1998:

 

7. Appropriate technical and organisational measures shall be taken against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data.

 

My request for a true copy of my credit agreement under section 78 was made on xx/xx/2007 and the 12 working days for your compliance expire on xx/xx/2007. I note that there is no provision that removes the requirements of the act to provide this information on time, even if you are unsure of my identity.

 

i look forward to recieveing the documentation requested

 

Regards

Typical i just got a call from them 5 mins ago saying they have sent me the agreements a couple of times but they was returned to them saying there is no such address. they said that they know that i have received documents from them in the past and wondered if there was a problem with my post ? then asked me to comfirm my address etc... with him.

 

I told him there was no problem with my post as i get mail everyday and i was not willing to confirm anything with him as they already have all the information needed. Then he became very abrupt and told me that he was making a note on the file that i would`nt confirm this information and put the phone down.

 

How strange is this a delay tactic or something ? Cant for the life of me think why they would do this.

I dont think it is a delaying tatic. I think it is a tactic to get info out of you so they can start sum type of procedings against you.

Should i write them a letter confirming my address and a brief note about the phone call above so they cant say i with held information and was uncontactable and ask for prove that they have tried to contact me, also remind them that they are in breach of my request for my CCA under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 as 27 days have past since they confirmed my request for a CCA.

 

Or should i just leave it and see what happens

Hi There

 

When you CCA'd them, did you put your address as it is now on the letter?

 

If you did, have they received the request for a copy of your credit agreement?

 

if you have proof of delivery, they clearly have your address so why bother contacting them

oh and with rergards to the telephone calls

 

send the idiots this

 

Dear xxxx

 

Account Ref xxxx

 

Please be advised that I will only communicate with you in writing. I have noted your repeated attempts to contact me by telephone over the past few weeks/months and these have been duly logged by time and date.

 

Furthermore, should it be your intention to arrange a “doorstep call”, please be advised that under OFT rules, you can only visit me at my home if you make an appointment and I have no wish to make an appointment with you.

 

There is only an implied license under English Common Law for people to be able to visit me on my property without express permission; the postman and people asking for directions etc (Armstrong v. Sheppard and Short Ltd [1959] 2 Q.B. per Lord Evershed M.R.). Therefore take note that I revoke license under Common Law for you, or your representatives to visit me at my property and if you do so, then you will be liable to damages for a tort of trespass and action will be taken, including but not limited to, police attendance.

 

Yours faithfully/sincerely,

yes when i sent my CCA and DPA they was both received and signed for on the 18th October and both copies had my address on thats why i refused to talk to them at all about personal details as for all i know it could be anyone on the other end of the phone. I will send them that letter above by recorded delivery first thing in the morning.
