Welcome finance gave me a ccj ***WON*** plus Costs & CCJ set aside..'
Brief outline on this one.
I bought a car on finance from welcome finance back in 2002,i had it for about a year and then i was struggling with the payments,they were £160 a month,i rang my local office and i went in and they said they could lower the payments fo me,they done this by doing the loan again,they dropped them to £92 a month,they said they would add the remainder of the other loan i had to the new one,which was about £2000,i went away happy.After 5 years i finished paying for it in 2006.again i was happy.
This year i recieved a letter saying i still had an outstanding balance of £2000 with them,i in my stupidity ignored it,thinking i had paid it all off.In june i got a letter to say i had been given a county court judgment from northampton court,and i also now have an attatchment of earnings taking £20 a week.I visited my local welcome finance office,and the guy i spoke to said "it was from 2002"now this was when i dropped the payments.i thought they had added it to the other loan,and as i had paid that one off,i thought i was finished but according to them i havent and i need to pay them the £2000 or so to.
Is this right??does this mean they kept the other loan open??

Personally I would send a SAR to Welcome and a CA request to see exactly what they have done.. but I understand that Welcome are having problems at the moment so I don't know where that will leave you.

A CA Request is a Credit agreement request which is when you ask for a copy of your Credit agreement(s)what did u mean that welcome are having problems??financial trouble,is this why they are chasing me for this It would appear that they are goting 'bust' but I am not completely up on the subject, Others on the forum may be.
I hope this has helped. I'll find the Templates and post them for you.

this one for SAR,should contain your cca,no need to request separate,
would send to compliance,

Thanks for finding that Sam I couldn't remember where it was.
I agree that they should send CA in SAR but I didn't know if it was worth a CA request as it's a shorter time limit to produce.
Good luck smiffer, and it might be worth looking in the Welcome Finance forum to see the state of play with regards to their possible demise.

I would advocate requesting your sec 77/78 request seperately and recorded delivery enclosing a £1.00 PO and print your name no signiture.This places the Claimant under time restiction of 12+2 and places them in default of your request quicker than the S.A.R which they will probally ignore.

i think a cca would be no good on this one as a ccj has been granted.
welcomes response would be that they are under no obligation to provide one now the account has been terminated by a ccj
an SAR is a different matter
they have to, by law, respond

Ok lets see if they provide it within the S.A.R? Bet you they dont.
How many threads on here postggi are S.A.Rs complied with??
In any event im sure the OP is looking to have this CCJ set a side to be able to re defend it and the above request is how I would initiate it.

Yes the solicitor was a Mr cohen from west Yorkshire.
as for the attachment of earnings,i am not sure where it came from as i can't find the paperwork,i could ask the guy at work who does our wages,would he know??
What do you think i should send them?? a cca or the other one,i am not that good with legal stuff so i really have no idea.
i believe i did sign a new agreement,so have i re-wrote the loan,and what does that mean for me?they said they would add the outstanding from the other one,to the new one,i'm sure thats what they said,but it was in 2002 7 years back,and i cant find any of my agreements,i know i have kept them,just not sure where (DOH)
andyorch "is looking to have this CCJ set a side to be able to re defend it".Yeah this would be what i would like to do.
Is there anyway i can get a copy of the agreements i have made with them??

I would request both then you have all bases covered,Only costs a £1.00 PO.Leave the PO blank just retain your reciepts and proof of postage.They will not comply fully with the S.A.R but if they ignore yout CCA sec 77/78 request they know the law and would look excellent in your Defence should you succeed in setting a side.
