Help with Court CCJ letter 1st credit *** SETTLED OUT OF COURT ***

[B3rty]

The issue is dated 26th and its states the date if service is 5 days after so today 31st is the actual day or 2/11/07 if I allow for the weekend, I assume its working days so 28 working days from 2/11/ gives me until 11th December

I have acknowledged today online and assume I have 28 working days to lodge my defence, I will phone the court to accertain the right day and date and get my ducks in a row as it were

But if they haven't produced the CCA and he points out that breach of s78 in his defence the Judge (if he or she is applying the CPR correctly) can strike out the claim or issue an order to comply on failure of which the claim is struck out.

not sure why but this post went to number 1 as the start of the thread...

Nice one b3rty so we have ample time for them to respond to the CPR letter.

[Edz11]

But by having a CCA request non compliance can be included as full defence in itself.

[B3rty]

any idea why the threads gone weird as the sequence has changed....

[Edz11]

There's a date problem - should be back to normal after midnight??! (See tech page)

Having a CPR non-com would be better

[Edz11]

Shall we "tell him" to do the two then we'll both be happy? It ain't our first class stamps or £1 postal order??

Thanks for the help

I have today sent the two letters by special delivery and established my date my date at the court as 28th November so I feel I am on a roll and will feedback when I receive the usual replies etc…..I have to say I feel pretty good about this and upon reading the forum feel I may have another claim….

I had a business account, business loan and a personal account with HSBC which has been serviced by Metropolitan credit services I paid them a token 3x £1 a month for the last 2 years somewhere along the line the loan has rolled into the business account .

Yesterday I had letters from HSBC saying these had been assigned to Pheonix Recoveries acting on behalf of Tessera Recoveries on the 12th October and that Phenonix are now the effective owners

They have appointed Marlin Financial Services as their servicing agent and provided me with their address

OK I realise I can send a S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) letter to the bank regarding the accounts which I will do as the two totals they quoted were £ 12,770.97 and £8381.88 so a total of £21152.85 and on my reckoning that’s about £4-5k too much so I will be interested to see what they have charged me on that, I have completed the letters and will send these with the 2x£10 to-morrow.

However as these were a business account and a current account can I use the CCA letter to send to Marlin? Plus does this put me in dispute with the bank at some point and can this reflect on DCA and their capacity to act….etc etc

Your thoughts are gratefully appreciated

In 2005 I was a sole trader and my business collapsed leaving me with debt I couldn’t pay so consulted the CCCS and agreed token payments with all my debtors which at that time were credit cards and banks

Over the course of time these have been sold onto debt collection agencies and I pay all of them a token payment completing a review each 6 months based on my ability to pay which is pretty close to zero

The one company that will not even discuss with me is 1st credit who have a MBNA debt for £3704 , each month I sent a cheque for £1 which they cashed but continued to call and harass me, eventually I obtained their banking information and I send them £1 a month ignoring all the letters threatening to take my house etc.

I have now received a county court claim form from the Northampton court ( I live in Bristol) claiming interest and costs making a total of £4275.75

Now because I have been paying £1 a month for over a year I assume I have acknowledged the debt and I cannot query the debt though the CCA route and wondered if anyone had some good genuine advise on what I should do..

I have one CCJ already and dealt with my local court who actually helped me as this was A&L who obtained a CCJ by default and I overturned it getting the court to agree a payment that was within my means

Help please as I am a little worried on the best way forward..

Thanks

Hi B3rty

Welcome to the CAG

just because you have been paying these debts does not mean you cant CCA them and request a copy of your credit agreement

since they have issued a claim,have you acknowledged the claim? have you defended?

also under the Civil Proceedure rules you are entitled to disclosure of all documents that they intend to rely on, to allow you to prepare your defence, this will also include a copy of the credit agreement

bear with me, i know where there is a letter to send to get this info.
