    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?
    • so a new powerless B2B debt DCA set up less than a month ago with a 99% success rate... operating on a NWNF basis , but charging £30 to set up your use of them. that's gonna last 5mins.... = SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. a DCA is NOT a BAILIFF and have  ZERO legal powers on ANY debt - no matter WHAT its type. dx

    • You could send an SAR to DCbl on the pretext that you are going for a breach of your GDPR . They should then send the purported letter of discontinuance which may show why it ended up in Gloucester and see if you can get your  costs back on the day. It obviously won't be much but  at least perhaps a small recompense for your wasted day. Not exactly wasted since you had a great win  albeit much sweeter if you had beat them in Court. But a win is a win so well done. We will miss you as it has been almost two years since you first started out on this mission. { I would n't be surprised if the wrong Court was down to DCBL}. I see you said "till the next time" but I am guessing you will be avoiding private patrolled car parks for a while.🙂
    • It is extremely disappointing that you haven't told us anything about the result of the hearing. You came here at the very last minute and the regulars - all unpaid volunteers - sweated blood trying to get an acceptable Witness Statement prepared in an extremely short time. The least you could have done is tell us how the hearing went, information invaluable for future users. Evidently not.

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

I had a PDL with 1 month loan which I defaulted on back in November last year. I have gotten myself into a bit of a mess with PDL and know I have nobody but myself to blame.

 

I applied for a loan with Mayday Payday yesterday, and after thinking about it decided to cancel the application. I emailed them and asked them to withdraw my application - no response

 

Today I had an email from Mayday saying my application had been refused - and again I emailed requesting they cancel my application. I checked my bank account this afternoon to find £10 and £100 had been debited. I knew it was this company as I had only had a new debit card on SAturday and they were the only company I gave my details to. It turns out that 1 month loan and Mayday Payday are the same company!!!

 

Watch out guys, if you owe money to either of them and apply to the other they won't think twice about raiding your bank account!!!

 

Can I challenge the payment?:(

I Highlighed that this may happen on sunday morning but the site team on this site removed my thread without warning !

All Fortress Group UK websites say this in there terms:

 

18. If you owe Fortress Group (UK) Ltd money through any of its brands or subsidiaries you authorise us to use the debit card details supplied in this application to recover those monies as your relationship is with Fortress Group (UK) Ltd and not just an individual brand. We do not have to notify you that we have, or intend to, do this.

 

They also trade under these names:

1 Month Loan Fortress Securities Mayday Payday Oasis Finance Oasis Payday Payday Mayday

 

Beware

Well I've just checked through all my correspondence with 1 Month Loan regarding my account, and nowhere on their contact with me does it state they're part of Fortress.

 

Even my bank agreed what they've done is sly but I can't do anything about it as in the terms & conditions I agreed to when applying to mayday it states if I owe money to Fortress they can use my card details to claim it back - Even though I had NO clue the 2 companies were related!!

 

My advice - Avoid at all costs!!!

After phoning to complain i received this email from them.....Shame they can't even get the number of the clause correct, as in the T&C it's clause 18!!

Beware!!

Dear Mayday Payday Customer

I am writing to advise you that today we collected funds from your debit card. As you may recall you recently had a loan with one of our brands 1 Month Loan which you failed to repay on the agreed date. In accordance with clause 17 of the terms and conditions you agreed to when you recently applied for your Mayday Payday loan if any money was owed to any other brand we could use the debit card supplied in this application to recover it.

17. If you owe Fortress Group (UK) Ltd money through any of its brands or subsidiaries you authorise us to use the debit card details supplied in this application to recover those monies as your relationship is with Fortress Group (UK) Ltd and not just an individual brand. We do not have to notify you that we have, or intend to, do this.

SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Even after collecting this amount you still have an outstanding balance with Fortress Group (UK) Ltd. You should contact the 1 Month Loan team immediately on 01284 717820 where one of our consultants will be able to arrange a suitable repayment plan to recover the outstanding balance. Failure to do so may lead to legal action being commenced. Additionally should you decide to pursue this matter further by challenging the payment with your bank we will again begin legal action against you. At this stage all the costs associate with this legal action will be added to your account.

Please note that Fortress Group (UK) Ltd has acted 100% within its terms and conditions and completely within the law. While you may feel upset that we have taken this money from you, it is a debt that you owe us.

Regards

Fortress Group ( UK ) Ltd

These monkeys sent me a recorded delivery letter stating they were in the rights to phone me at work and to contact my parents (one of whom is ill) and claimed it wasn't harassment. They keep trying to take money from my debit card (I've changed banks) and seem to think they are justified plus I've sent them a token payment and will set up a repayment scheme through payplan. They are just bullies and have no right to harass people, especially if they are trying to sort themselves out. PDLs ought to be banned anyhow!:mad2:

Although this thread is old the situation hasn't changed with 1 month loan my friend recently took a loan with them and the funds were taken out of his account when he wasn't expecting it, taking him over his overdraft to incur further costs. He's now writing to the OFT to make a formal complaint.

Did he tell the bank it was an unauthorised transaction and to do an immediate chargeback?

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..
