    Default Re: Y.B. CCA is it good??

    Unfortunately, this contains all the prescribed T&C's - as long as this originally had your signatureicon on.

    The only thing wrong with it is the stamp, which is across part of the T&C's - but I doubt this is enough to put the account into dispute.

    I would recommend writing to them and asking that they accept lower payments if you are finding it difficult at the moment.

    I am not an expert, but I can give good advice about Brighthouse

    Am learning more and more about DCA's too

    I have no legal experience and all advice given is based on the knowledge I've gained from this site.

    Thank you clemma, I thought it was allright, I have been in touch with them and quite honestly out of all 6 crediters that I owe money too, they have been the most pleasent and accomodating with no threats or defaults, and accepted the minimum payment for 6 months. If only the rest had the same attitude I would not be in this position. Still the rest have a war on their hands as it looks like 3 are unenforcable, and the other 2 you know about. Many thanks again clemma, I will keep you and the rest of our happy band updated as things progress.

    Default Re: SKY CARD (part of barclays) CCA

    Hi Carpinjoy, i have the exact same application form from Skycard and have been arguing the case as they have not stated a credit limit it is unenforceable and that it is not signed by the debtor. I was in the middle of drafting a letter stating case law below when i saw this thread:-

    I refer to the case Central Trust Plc V Spurway [2005] CCLR,where HHJ Overend states

    24. In my judgment, the passages of Lord Nicholls’ speech cited by Mr Say persuade me that:

    (a)
    The amount of credit must mean credit in its technical sense, and
    (b)
    That although the use of the word “credit” is not prescribed, there should not be any confusion in the mind of the lay reader as to what the amount of credit is.


    This is my first post, although i have been a member for quite a while, and picked up some very useful information.


    I am now in a quandry as what to do now as i have seen a lot of Shadows postings and he is much more knowledgable on these matters than i am.


    I would appreciate his/anyone's opinion on this?

    Whilst the skycard doesnt state an actual figure it does have a statement that the provider will set the credit limit and advise you of this limit.

    This thread details the prescribed terms

    http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...le-useful.html


    I quote from that thread.

    D Credit limit
    This may be a term or the manner in which it will be determined or that there is no credit limit.


    Sorry..

    Looks like S. is right on this marc.w, I wish that he was not. I thought in my own mind that it was allright after looking at other threads on other CCAs and it seemed to me that skycard had covered all the bases, sorry. Keep clagging on this thread if you persue your CCA with them as I would be very interested as to how you get on.
