  • As anyone got any recommendations on unions please? We're not sure who to use but think we need one.

    Don't know much about unions but maybe USDAW is worth a look. I think the subs are about £2 a week.

    I'm not recommending them in any way, no idea if they're good or not.

    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

  • Thanks all I'll have a look!

    Would anyone mind if I posted a couple of photos up here just for your view really, it's what my friend has received back from cp plus after submitting here evidence for court? Only I think they are playing games with us all now, and I'd like to know your thoughts. There asking her to submit copies her car log book as well as other things, surely if they going ahead with court as they state to her they are then it should be the court asking for these things shouldn't it not them!

    And how does the V5 help them find the driver?! it only names the keeper who might never even drive it (e.g. I am the keeper of the car my husband drives, and I almost never use it).

    And why should she assist, this is for them to evidence, as claimant, who the driver was.

    In the other Meadowhall thread, it's been said by Robin of Loxley, that Meadowhall went round the retailers asking for their lists of employees and VRNs. And the OP of the other thread has quoted an email from CP Plus that admits they've been passed a list of employees' VRNs and are using it to assume the keepers of those cars are 'guilty' of something when they aren't even Meadowhall employees!

    Horrendous DPA breach, surely.

    I think the group needs to club together for legal advice about DPA breach here, their employers (surely?) can't pass on a list of staff to the Centre, who then passed it on the CP Plus who don't use the POFA for keeper liability, can only hold drivers liable, and have no idea who was driving the car.

    The group of employees also need to get their MP involved in all this, and the local press.

  • Why will the local MP want to help when these people are refusing to use the staff parking area that Meadowhall want them to park in (oh sorry, I forgot, none of them were parking and their partners/aunts/dogs were driving them to work each day)? Do you realise how important Meadowhall is to the economy in that part of the world and how large an employer they are? Why do you think that thr MP will support these people ahead of the wishes of Meadowhall?

    As I have mentioned throughout this thread, you guys seriously need to get proper legal advice. Learn from the nurses case!
    If you were not the driver write to the parking firm and tell them who was so they CANNOT hold you liable. The person who was driving the car is responsible so let them deal with it. Not you! Don’t let people with an agenda tell you otherwise.

    Jeez, you do give the game away what side you really sit on. Meadowhall, CP Plus and the retailers are handing round and sharing lists of employees' private data like it's a local book club, and you can't see that's utterly unacceptable.

    Your post is IMHO, not worthy of further response.

    As usual you have NOT smelt the coffee yet have you

    Nothing whatsoever to do with the size of employer etc

    THIS IS GIVING DATA TO A THIRD PARTY COMPANY
    and in this case to a scammer/cowboy

    Of course an MP will be concerned about sharing data ??

    "As I have mentioned throughout this thread, you guys seriously need to get proper legal advice. Learn from the nurses case!"

    As you already know the advice giving on this forum is far
    better than the pretend legals who get involved with the Cowboys

    The only thing to learn about the nurses case is the disgusting
    behaviour of the NHS towards their staff and a defunct
    Jeremy Hunt who afterwards pampered himself in a new
    £44,000 bathroom for his office. SMELL THE COFFEE ???

    You came to this forum blasting off to send money to
    support Carly in Dundee.
    What lesson have you learned from this ??
    ANSWER = NEVER NAME THE DRIVER

    In a previous post I asked you what YOU did to help Carly.
    You never replied ..... now is your chance

    Your comments are unsavoury to say the least and once
    again you select to be treated as someone not to be respected
    on this forum.

    Think first before you post in future.
    To me, you sound like a very frustrated PPC

    The frustration, I can understand given the very high success
    rate of this forum
