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.
I have the standard Egg agreement (1999) with "Approved Limit", Apr and cash withdrawl interest issues making it unenforceable (I hope).
I am still paying my minimum payment so not in default.
My question: Has anyone written to Egg pointing this out and offering them a nominal amount say 10% of balance as Full and final settlement?
I was going to say I have had the agreement reviewed it is unenforceable and hence I am making this offer instead of paying the same amount to a solicitor and dragging them through the courts to get a decleration of unenforceability.
If I default they will sell the debt on for about the same amount with no success. So surely this would be a more attractive offer i.e they get 10% or Zero if I take it to court.
I would be interested in seeing the letter if anyone has gone down this route, and knowing what the likely outcome or what Egg may do in retaliation for sending said letter.
