Entered Wrong reg on App. messed up my appeal now.

So sorry to read this after all your hard work & preparation.

The fact remains that to bring forward irrelevant old data appears to me to be in breach of the DPA and GDPR, as the data is neither known to be 'correct' or 'timely' if it's from 2015 and in storing unused VRNs for years they are causing loss to users.

It would be a faff to try to sue the PHONE APP COMPANY for your losses though, and would need good knowledge of the DPA and Distance Contract regs, and even then you might get a Judge like that one again! Maybe something you are not up for?

Yeah, I’m done with it all unfortunately. It’s knocked the stuffing out of me today so I’m just gonna take it on the chin and chalk it off as one of life’s lessons. I remember thinking at he 1st time of reading ‘we win 99% of cases’ that I would be that 1% haha. Thanks though. You do a great service for everyone that visits this forum and if what I’ve gone through helps one or two people in the Long run then that’s a bonus.

Yes it does help - even to know Wakefield Court have that lady Judge!

Sorry you were in the 1% and that she awarded more costs than should be allowable (but she calls the shots in her court, that's DJ Bingo for you).

Sorry to hear of your lost court case, I have followed your story with great interest of the last few months as your story is very similar to my own. The only difference being is that I am in Scotland, so the stance taken is very different.

Tip my hat to you on fighting in what you believe in. Unfortunately it wasn't to be.
