    • You can counter a Judges's question on why you didn't respond by pointing out that any company that charges you with stopping at a zebra crossing is likely to be of a criminal mentality and so unlikely to cancel the PCN plus you didn't want to give away any knowledge you had at that time that could allow them to counteract your claim if it went to Court. There are many ways in which you can see off their stupid claim-you will see them in other threads  where our members have been caught by Met at other airports as well as Bristol.  Time and again they take motorists to Court for "NO Stopping" apparently completely forgetting that the have lost doing that because no stopping is prohibitory and cannot form a contract. Yet they keep on issuing PCNs because so many people just pay up . Crazy . You can see what chuckleheads they are when you read their Claim form which is pursuing you as the driver or the keeper. they don't seem to understand that on airport land because of the Bye laws, the keeper is never liable.   
    • luckily like this thread VCS/DCB(L) PCN spycar capture - PAPLOC Now claimform - no Stopping in Restricted Zone - Bristol Airport ***Claim Dismissed*** - Page 4 - Private Land Parking Enforcement - Consumer Action Group although no on the crossing, same applies to you so WS time. there are numerous threads here on pedestrian crossing claimforms by VCS at Bristol and at other airports so use our enhanced google searchbox and find them. really a bad idea to vanish for SIX months and not been have reading up here.....................  
    • Not at all.  The onus is on them to ensure that their invoice respects the provisions of Schedule 4 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 to establish keeper liability.  Which it can't as the area is covered by bye-laws. Spot on. Irrelevant as to whether you entered into a contract with VCS to pay them £100 if you didn't obey what was written on their silly signs. Who cares?  What about their ridiculous generic Particulars of Claim where they deliberately mix up driver and keeper. And where do they mention this?  You haven't shown us anything. Of course you have to prepare a Witness Statement and you'd better get on with it. This is the problem here - you've disappeared for months & months, haven't kept us updated and presumably haven't read other VCS threads.  That needs to change - now. Otherwise you will lose - simple as that. For a start - please upload the court order which fixes the hearing date plus plus where "VCS mentioned my initial defence was generic and clearly copied from the internet".  We're not mind readers.

    • 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.

Lowell Portfolio No. 1 and trying to make them pay awarded costs

Hi all, I'm just wondering if anyone has recent experience of Lowell Portfolio No 1?

 

They recently hit me with a Statutory Demand which I successfully got set aside with costs awarded to me against "Lowell" but despite numerous demands from me they still haven't paid up or acknowledged the Court Order and its been around 2 months.

 

I've also been demanding compensation for their failure to supply copies of a credit agreement and notice of assignment in response to my CCA 1974 request for same, and continuing to enforce me to attend Court to get their Statutory Demand set aside even after it had been pointed out to them that I had a rock solid defence in that the alleged account had been fully and finally settled several months earlier by a relative of mine.

 

Does anyone know that they are still around?

 

Does anyone have experience of sueing someone like Lowell for compensation in this way?

 

Also does anyone know the next step in getting costs awarded by the Court actually paid? Is it a case of informing the Court and paying for Bailiffs to be sent round?

 

Any advice would be much appreciated as I don't want to let this shower get away with this.

 

Many thanks.

Cough, cough, splutter, splutter...it's easier asking who doesn't have experience of these people on the debt forums.

Forget personal demands, contact your local bailiffs. You have a court order for goodness sake.

This could be good!

 

If you've got a Court Order and Lowell are ignoring it, get back in touch with the Court. They won't be impressed, and can force Lowell's hand - with baliffs if necessary :D

  • Barclays: WON!!! It took four months but was totally worth it!
  • Cabot: I'm still waiting for an enforcable agreement, more than a year after requesting it. Go on, Uncle Ken, take me to court if you dare. You know you want to!
  • Elephant.co.uk: VICTORY - they admitted there was no debt!
  • Ashbourne Management (gym membership): Finally got my default removed and out-of-court settlement; I'm not finished with them yet!

At some point last year, Lowells had a CCJ registered against them, might have been similar circumstances.

They are so low down on the scale, thay make amoebas seem intelligent.

 

Quick description: They are easily overlooked since they are so transparent or not recognized as living organisms since they often resemble decaying organic remains.

Of course I will pay you everything you say I owe with no proof.

Oooh Look....Flying Pigs

I like the word 'fecula' when refering to the Lowell Group, because it just seems so appropriate.

 

They had several CCJ's, but they were mysteriously removed after the matter became public knowledge through CAG. Even their credit rating was adversely affected, which I found more than a little amusing. You can watch this and other types through Companies House, Company credit check, Business reports, Company reports, Company Information for all UK businesses but beware when using a 'paid for' service on a personal credit card. Showing an interest in such companies may trigger the 'Nosey Numpties'......

HOIST BY THEIR OWN PETARD.

 

Blimey it works....:-)

S T R E W T H !!!

 

Ok well thanks for the moral support guys. I was actually thinking someone might encourage me to issue them with a statutory demand for the compensation and costs added together since they have made no attempt to claim they don't owe it all.

 

Or... (or maybe "and") sueing for both lots at once since the costs should be a forgone conclusion and would put the Judge in a friendly mood :O)

 

Oh I forgot to mention they were also after me for another alleged debt which they had no hope on, and there could be some mileage there too.

They could seize all those £1 postal orders they have received for CCA requests. That should mount up.

They must live on a different planet to the Lowells that we all know and love. This is a clear case of false advertising

 

Oh no I disagree. Or more accurately (at least from my own experience) I can't DISAGREE with anything they've claimed as I've found its the people that don't owe them anything (but that they try to scare into believing that they do) that they abuse and treat appallingly, which strangely they don't mention above. The ones they send Statutory Demands to because they know their case is so hopeless it would be a waste of money to issue an actual Court Claim.
