I spoke to a really nice Guy at the Halifax the other day. He was really pleasant and cheerful --- he sounded just too nice to be working in customer services!!!

It makes such a change when you speak to someone like that.

Good luck!

I think you'll find that Aktiv Kapital will come up with the original agreement for Harvey's. I believe this would have been done through a division of Abbey National - who keep ALL their documents. However, as and when they produce this agreement, you'll need to write back to them and ask for them to supply you with the ORIGINAL notice of assingment and the ORIGINAL deed of assignment..It's my belief they'll struggle to supply those.

As for Cabot,, please go and visit the Cabot forum and have a good read there. You'll know what's coming to you in the post from this lot - before you even get it.

Hi pmhcfc

i have also requested the deed off assintgment within the CCA letter. if they send it i will be surprised.

if i have to pay it i will. but if they have not follwed the correct format of keeping records and forwarding them to me in the first instance. then i have a right to withold payments to them. as is my understand.

thank you for the input you have given me on this. gentle reminders always help.

aktiv did say they would forward the paper work when i spoke to them to make sure i was sending the paperwork to the correct place.



Cabot hahaha i dont doubt i will get the same as everyone else. a copy of the aapplication form or a botched up photoshop version or something that isnt what i have asked for.

Letter from Thames Credit as promised stating the debt was statue barred. thank you to the guy that works there for sorting it out.

DLC have got some paperwork from them. but it dont have any account info on it. has a cover page which states account sale agreement no details of account number on them. (accept the main overall letter to confirm they have recieved the CCA request)
the next page (page 1 in bottom right corner) is a full page stating the sale but once again no account numbers.
the last and fianl page (page 2
has two signatures on it. one from barclays Ken Apter and one from hillesden Anthony Locke

i will scan them in a mo and delete the stuff that needs deleting personnel info to me. then will put them up for you to check them.

Here is a scanned image of the letter from Aktiv Kapital. it is a notice of assignment. but dont these have to be signed by both parties or is that just the deeds of assignment.

is this a even a true copy as it is dated 10/07/07.

i didnt get this via a CCA was sent after a phone call. they have a CCA with them. which requests the info required by the consmuer act.



any advice on this one guys and gals.

will post up the DLC one in a bit. im sure it aint legal. looks like it was knocked up in a rush.

thank you for looking.

With regards to Notice of Assignments:

If the notice includes an amount demanded that is incorrect it renders the notice legally invalid (e.g. unlawful charges or DCA admin/collection charges).
Even if the amount doesn't include charges but is misstated it is still invalid.
If the date is incorrect it is legally invalid (i.e. does not tie in with the deed of assignment - the execution of assignment should be the same as the date shown on the notice).
The case that supports this is W.F.Harrison & Co Ltd v Burke [1956] 1 WLR 419

Hi Rory

the back of the notice of assignment has details how to make payments for the debt. im damn sure the original wouldnt have had this on it.

it does also have a balance with the amount left to be paid, so that makes the aktiv kapital one invalid then if im not mistaken, or until they can produse the correct documents. does that sound right rory.

the dlc one dont that need to have my account info on it. as it could be anyones paperwork. it could be yours it could be uncleburts that died 20yrs back since. to me it dont mean nothing at present other than paper printed on to make it look real.

Yes, it would also appear to be incorrectly dated.

Again yes. As you have stated it is a generic document. It has probably been put together to cover a number of debts that the DCA has bought.
