  8. Yes pdl As you can see I was around on the forum at the start of the first wave of the bank charges battle but I'm rather out of touch now. I see from your link that we have more consumer powahhhhhh now. I seem to recall I received a 'final response' letter but my computer has exploded since then so I don't know if I have my correspondence. Does anyone know if they can decide to accept a debit card debit if there is no money and no agreed overdraft faculty? I'm pretty sure any direct debit would be refused (so they can make money) but as there are no charges for a declined card debit I guess they make their money by accepting it therefore inducing unwarranted overdraft fees etc... Am I imagining that there was a Halifax case recently about overdraft charges and defaults? Edit: ahh lloyds. Seemingly if the overdraft charges etc are deemed to be unfair a resulting default under the DPA is also unfair? Not sure how my case would compare as I did not make any payment as I considered their actions to be wrong and unfair and they had already started to add charges and I refused to give any money that would be used to pay those charges. Any help very much appreciated
  9. Not my main current account, I gave the debit card details to a company for a timed repayment (you may guess the type of company) I had no arranged overdraft, was in credit. The third-party company clearly repeatedly tried to take payments from the account but there were insufficient funds to do so. Then suddenly for some reason the bank decided to allow a debit for the repayment of a couple of hundred pounds, making the account overdrawn. This was a couple of years ago, and since then the bank had applied a default marker and has increased the debt via charges, unauthorised overdraft etc to over £1200, I.e. loads more than the original amount. I have been ignoring all the letters etc, they don't seem that eager (YET) But really: why/how can they have allowed the debit card payment when there was no money, I agreed no overdraft? Are they allowed to do that? And clearly that amount of charges is absurd. Surely it should have rejected the debit request leaving the third-party to pursue me if necessary? Thoughts? Ta
  10. Yeah I assumed something like that I think it's unfair of them because it wasn't a debt issue per se: I notified them first to say they were in breach of contract. I didn't owe money it's all the subsequent bills they thought I should still be paying. On top of that though I had one 'account' where I dealt with multiple phone sub-accounts and though my termination reason covered them all they have applied multiple defaults. They've certainly vexed me haha
  11. As in write a letter to her at L? And demand that all the accounts be closed? Should I ask for the defaults to be removed in the same letter for the same reason do you think? Thanks
  12. Happy New Year To Me!! Slightly misleading as no court time needed - I had multiple mobile accounts which I stopped paying after informing them due to bad customer service & failure to provide everything promised under contract or implied contract. This they didn't like and each contract was apparently sent to a DCA etc - about £1000 in total maybe. I had got into the habit of ignoring because I'm stubborn and righteous haha but couple years later just before Christmas I was surprised to receive court papers for one of the accounts from infamous (on here) solicitors. I stubbornly waited just until the deadline (as they do) to file a defence and I just decided to go at it with full details to show that I wasn't messing/afraid and that I would be a great witness re the 51% threshold. I know the normally better method is to be brief & hold back haha. I also reserved the right to counterclaim re default defamation. Today I was actually preparing to do a CPR document request but I've just received a discontinuation of claim :D out of the blue I'm guessing/hoping this means the other accounts won't be acted upon?! Should I bother asking them to remove the default as they've tacitly accepted my defence? I know I'm being smug but im happy!!
  13. Hi, thanks for your response. I'm not sure you get my possibly poorly explained gist. I am saying that instead of putting a date of default on my credit file as soon as default happened, i.e. after the sixth month of arrears, which is the time agreed by the ICO's guidance at the top of this forum, they just kept inserting 6 markers each month. This means that effectively this adverse record is going to have been on my file for longer than six years, because it will be all of those 6 markers, and then the six years of default. Also, the record now only shows a default 'D' marker, no prior history, so that is also inaccurate as it is not showing everything. Thanks
  14. Hi, I have an account, 'defaulted', that was sold to a DCA. They replaced the credit file entry to just their details, and put a default marker in, nothing else - there is no monthly data anymore, just a 'D' on one month. So my first issue is that the data is not complete, not showing everything, so not a true representation, inaccurate. Secondly, I recall that when it was the credit card, the company had updated the monthly markers from 0 to 1 to 2 ... all the way to 6, and then continued each month with 6. So it was basically 0,0,0,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6...Now 6 should just change to a D for default and that should be the date of default, but it seems for whatever reason my default has been artificially extended, because the default date the DCA is using is after all of those 6 markers...So surely that is inaccurate as well. Thoughts?
