    • Good luck with that. Most leases don't even follow the majority of the 2002 regulations (too old) let alone the new one. The £250 cap needs to be placed in the lease through a deed of variation and good luck getting freeholders to agree to that. It's not just some magical thing that just caps it one day. Some freeholders are only reducing them through lease extensions at massive costs (essentially buying out the difference in ground rent) and if you're doing that you might as well extend on a peppercorn anyway.
    • Yeah, I would confirm that anyway, as there is a separate sheet where I have to put in those details and my insurance number and driving licence number. That is on page 2 (page one is their allegations) then page three is a statement that you weren't the driver and space to give details who was driving. Page 4 is an empty sheet for a statement to explain the situation. So I will fill out my details as the driver on page 2, admitting I was driving at the time, and then attach my statement as above as a separate sheet. That should hopefully do it at this stage

    • Seems OK, except that you must provide your details (as the driver). Include your name, address, DOB and driving licence number. This is to comply with s172 of the Road Traffic Act. Keep a copy and get a free Certificate of Posting from the Post Office.
    • Dear all, some information/advice required please.   I recently received a Further Steps Notice about a fine from 19/03/2018 which I knew nothing about. It was regarding a vehicle parked on the street without tax ( It was covered up and there because the only key to it had been stolen, I had been away from home  and I was having trouble getting a new key cut and coded to the vehicle )  I had not made a change of address to DVLA which would be why I knew nothing about the fine until receiving the final steps notice dated 29th April 2024 and giving me 10 working days to pay, although the notice did not arrive till May 9th 2024. I emailed the London Collection and Compliance Centre on May 13th 2024 asking for any information and they sent me a copy of the original fine. It is for  £390 back vehicle tax, £85 cost and £600 fine.  I now have received a Notice of Enforcement dated 7th June 2024 demanding payment ( total £1036)  or an arrangement by 6am 15th June ( tomorrow )  My question is is it tool late now to question the £600 fine part of the total amount to be paid ? That amount seems punitive.  Would making a statuary declaration regarding having no knowledge of the original court date apply ? And any other advice gratefully received. I am on Universal Credit and apparently they have already taken £177 via benefit reductions which I wasn’t aware of, but does make it seem strange that they were also unable to contact me.    Many thanks for any assistance

    • 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, sorry to go on, but do I just carry on with my claim even with the test case going on? Should I just send the second letter now, having sent the first one a few months ago? Should I then start court proceedings, even with the test case happening? Could someone just clarify please? Thank you.

Yes you can carry on with your claim.

 

And file when you are ready or can afford. As long as you are aware there is a chance of a stay, but have a read around the stay forum to see how things are progressing there.

Hi everyone again. Sorry. Right I heard nothing from my lba, so I am now at the court stage. BUT my claim is for pre-six years as well as about £300 they have taken since I got my original payout. Should I drop the pre-six years money and just go for the rest? Or should I wait until after the test case - I'm on benefits and can't afford to lose the court fee. I don't know what to do.

There is nothing to say you cant claim pre 6 years.

 

And if you lose (which is doubtful) you cant lose the court fee if you didnt actually pay them.

I'm agoraphobic and I can't get to the court, so I will have to do it online and pay - that's what I did last time. But I am only on benefits so I would really need to get the fees back. Oh well - I will go for it and hope for the best. Thanks for your help.

Thank you so much. I will do that.

 

I'm just filling in the thingy form - this one - http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/courtfinder/forms/n1_0102.pdf - is that the right one? I am really struggling with this though. Do I use this information - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/681-4-particulars-claim-n1.html or the link that says new POC for Halifax?

 

I am really stuck. Please can someone help. I would like to get it sorted tonight and send it off tomorrow if possible.

 

I have done the spreadsheet with the 8% interest, but I don't know how to do the daily rate thing.

 

Please help. Sorry to be a pain.

Yes that's the right form. You can either print it off and fill in by hand or fill it in on screen But you cannot save it so make sure you print several copies before closing.

 

Use the new POC's. On the form put' See attached sheet for Particulars of Claim' and print the POC's on a plain sheet

 

Daily rate is just your charges(without s69 8% interest) x 0.00022

 

eg £495 x 0.00022= 0.1089p rounded up = £0.11p

Thank you very much. I am doing it all now.

 

My claim before interest is £799.50 so the daily rate is 18p I think?

 

Where can I find out the court fee please? I have looked on the online claim site but I can't find the list of fees - I had it the other day, but now I cant find it lol.

im really sorry for all the questions but i dont want to get it wrong. I am just about done now. One more question - do I still add the £75 to my claim even though I am asking for exemption? Should I leave the court fee off of the N1 and the particulars?

Do I include schedule 1 with the particulars? I dont understand the significance of it.

These are extracts from the T&C's, which in simple terms say you must not go overdrawn. The fact that you did means there was a breach of contract and therefore their charges are not for a service but a breach of contract
