Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
Hi i am new to all this and have a few things that need some help with ..... firstly i have a credit card that was with morgan & stanley and has moved to Barclay card recently and have changed my card etc ....... I have read some threads and have become a bit confused , should they have sent me a new cca out for me to sign for the debt to be enforcable still ??????? .
Sorry if is in the wrong place am a bit stuck as to weather i have got my head aropund this correctly or not :-|
thank you x x x x x
Hi there...I have the same card. No, they don't have to send you a new CCA, but they do have to have the agreement you signed on record as stated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974. You can send them a CCA request enclosing a £1.00 postal order (do not use your signature anywhere!). Check my thread for template docs etc. I am still waiting for Morgan Stanley CCA and not holding my breath for it turning up anytime soon! Hope this helps a bit

Dear Sir/Madam
Account No:
With reference to the above agreement, I/we would be grateful if you would send me/us a copy of this credit agreement and a full Breakdown of the account including any interest or charges applied. I/we understand that under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 [sections 77-79], I am/we are entitled to receive a copy of any credit agreement and a statement of account on request. I/we enclose a payment of £1 which represents the fee payable under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.
I/we understand a copy of any credit agreement along with a statement of account should be supplied within 12 working days.
I/we understand that under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 creditors are unable to enforce an agreement if they fail to comply with the request for a copy of the agreement and statement of account under these sections of the Act.
Remember not to sign your letter, as the agreement has to have your signature to be enforceable and the creditor may try and use what you send them if they do not have it...initial it or use a different signature. And send a postal order for the £1.00 fee. Send request recorded mail!
I sent requests to the address on the back of my statements which is:
Barclaycard
Customer Services
Barclaycard House
PO BOx 5592
Northampton
NN4 1ZY
You can see how Slick has been helping me on my thread. They have 12+2 days to comply with the request, and you could stop paying after this if they have not complied, as they would be in default, although expect a lot of calls, threats and letters if you do this. Again see my thread for what happens after 12+2 days have expired, or post up your agreement if they send you something which you are not sure is enforceable.
Hope this helps!

thankyou thankyou thankyou , i am useless at using this , have just been on the dummies guide and still confused ...
I will send the letter and when get a respons ewill stick it on so can get some help if that would be ok . thanks again
This is an excellent site, and is keeping me sane. There are loads of us waiting for the Morgan Stanley original agreements. Barclaycard will probably respond to you by sending you a copy of their own terms and conditions, and then argue at the next stage that they only have to supply details of the original agreement, not actually provide a true copy............. Thankfully there are loads of letters on this site to help you through it.
thanks Daniella that great to hear that there are others in my boat ! , its nice when you can get advice of what to do because their bullying tactics are quite daunting and can make you think twice about weather they are really in the right or not . so hopefully with the excellent advice and support of this site then i will be able to follow through what i set out to do ...... let me know how you get on good luck so i know what to expect as the next stage of what they will try . Good luck again with yours
thanks bones x

hi all just wondering if some one could just clarify things for me .
I have got bc on the phone reg as they demanding payment and i am trying to bide my time waiting for their cca ........
Do i have to wait 12 +2 days from whaen i sent it or 12 + 2 days from when they signed for it ????
Am i right in thinking it is working days as that is what i am working on ?
They signed for it on the 10th feb but i sent it on the 7th (sat )
also is there a particular letter to send to bc about account in dispute or just a template from the library ???.
Just so have got it ready and can get them off my back ....
thanks again

Dear Sirs
Account number
I write with regards to the above account with your organisation.
I respectfully request that you provide me by return a copy of the credit agreement which bears my signature. I require this as i have reason to believe that there may be discrepancies within the agreement which may leave it improperly executed.Additionally i require the underwriting sheet or other document showing any commissions paid to you by the broker or by you to the broker
(If you have any other reasons why you need the agreement such as misselling of PPI Add it here)
obviously if the agreement is improperly executed i would be entitled to ask the court to consider the agreement and make a declaration of the rights of parties to the agreement.
I must stress this request is NOT made pursuant to section 78 Consumer Credit Act 1974 but is made pursuant to the Civil Procedure Rules ( Pre action protocols and Part 31.16) and therefore unsigned copy will not suffice, only a copy of the original contract in its unaltered form will suffice in these circumstances
Please confirm if you still hold a copy of my signed agreement and that you will provide me with this document.
I do not view this as an unreasonable request given that by supplying the document which i have asked for it will allow me to assess if my case has merit and will help to resolve matters possibly without the need to involve the court and will undoubtedly save costs on both sides
I look forward to your reply and wouyld ask for a response by 4pm on XXXX Date ( Give 21 days to respond)
Regards
will amend accordingly adn send tomorrow as their 12+2 days is up tomorrow ...and have not recieved anything at all , so
am i right in taking it that my account will be in dispuite by sending this letter until they send CCA weather legit or not ?
so i will make no payment s?
thanks for the clarification , just a bit scary when you going in to the unknown for the first time just want to check am going on write track
thanks
